The show is fine, its the standard of judging which is the problem. When do you ever hear anything which the celeb can actually work on. When do you actually hear constructive feedback. Most if it is stupid one liner's hoping to get a laugh from the audience at the celeb sometimes the pros expense. Very sad no one has brought them to heel by now. Its not helping the show.”
I was just thinking this today! The problem with SCD atm is all the ego's flying around. You've got the judges, the dancers and the celebs. All people who have massive ego's. When those clash you obviously get what we've got now- a huge mess. Then you ask the public for their opinion to compound the problem further!!
The format I think will have to change. I can't see the phone voting staying in place. SCD has always relied on the viewers having their say, so by not letting them there will be concern the programme may suffer. But not all successful reality programmes have a phone vote. The Apprentice doesn't for a start.
Maybe that's the solution -dispense with the judges, hire Alan Sugar and get the bottom couples to plead their case for coming back next week before he fires one!! A radical solution maybe but it could work!! Except another big ego has just been added to the fray! Oh well....
