Once upon a time this show had credibility. Now too much time is dedicated to auditions and the Academy. The best part used to be the contestants dancing with different partners as well as with the professionals...speaking of the pros who by the way have gone by the wayside. How could Nigel eliminate them altogether? Obviously way too much budget cutting. The contestants are stuck with a given partner who may not complement the other. At least when the contestants danced with a pro it was easy to see the true talent. The judges comments and critique is sooo lopsided that they want you to believe greatness when there’s mediocrity. I’m out.
