Dancing with the Stars!

A few years ago my mom and I were flipping through the channels and we came across a show called Dancing with the Stars. We started watching it in one of the seasons when it first came on.  There are now over twenty seasons of it and we have watched every one.  The show is about ballroom dancing.  There are usually twelve celebrities and they are each paired with a professional dancer.  These couples devote all the time they can to learning a new dance each week while juggling other things that their jobs require them to do.  They learn dances like the Argentine Tango, the Waltz, the Jive, the Quickstep, and if you make it to the top three you get to perform a freestyle dance.  The freestyles are my favorite to watch.  Each week a couple gets eliminated based on a combination of judge and viewer votes.  There are four judges and after each dance they critique the dance and give the couple a score on a scale of one to ten.    Over the years they have also started to do different theme nights.  They have a night where the celebrity gets to dance to their favorite song, a Latin night, a night where the couple can do a dance that portrays the most memorable year of their life, spring break night and my favorite, Disney Night.  My mom and I look forward to every Monday night because a new episode comes on.
