How would it be if the format was revamped completely - or at least tweaked a bit?
Instead of having eliminations each week from Week 2 onwards.... how would it be if they only eliminated from say... Week 6 onwards, instead?
As things currently stand, the less experienced, more inhibited, lesser known celebs have very little opportunity to show what they are able to do and try a range of dances. Much as I was not fond of Tameka, based on what I saw of her, she really had no adequate chance to show what she could do before being kicked off - and the same goes for Melvin too of course.
Now as I see it, the obvious benefit of this would be that over the course of six weeks all dancers would all have longer to show what they were able to do and try a greater range of dances before the public started voting for them. They would also have a better chance to build up a "fanbase" before eliminations began.
It does seem a bit daft to kick people out after only dancing 2 or 3 times. How can anyone TRULY be assessed after so little time and opportunity? I think it would be nice to have a few weeks without all the voting angst to just enjoy the dancing and to get a feel for the potential of all the celeb dancers - and of course also to let the various pros show what they have managed to teach. I mean, the pros are being paid to teach their celebs, and the celebs are being paid too (for at least 6 weeks work anyway - or thereabouts) - so why not get more dancing for the money being paid?
