We really do have some ticked off people around the table today! It took more than half the day for anyone to make a comment.

Personally, I can't help but believe that the powers that be would not rig the viewer voting. After the game show scandal of the 50's I would think that rigging the outcome would be forbidden. I'm also not conceited enough to believe that the majority of the people out there agree with me that she should be voted off. She evidently has a following among some of the people.

I love the show and enjoy seeing the pros as much as the stars. I was happy with last nights ending. I have always been one to go for the underdog. No, its not rigged. People vote for who they want to stay on and not always who is the best. The best will win in the end.

I record it on my DVR, then forward to the dancers that I enjoy. I think this is the worst season yet, except for a few celebs such as Evan.

It's obviously rigged and what a shame!

I watched 3 weeks and have decided I am not going to waste my time watching anymore. If it is a Dancing Competition the worst dancer should go at the end. That did not happen on the shows I watched. I do not care to be forced to accept the popular, dramatic or mundane as the best. I can find better ways to spend my time.

I always wonder if the last final spin on Jeopardy is rigged not to end on Bankrupt, as I don't remember ever seeing that happen.

marygailv: If you mean the last spin on Wheel of Fortune, where Pat spins the wheel, I have seen it land on bankrupt once.

It may have ended on bankrupt sometimes, but edited out because of time restraints, as they have to have an amount to play the final round. Dottie

Does the name Cloris Leachman ring a bell? How about Jerry Soringer? Neither of these people could dance but hung around forever. I think the people voting realize that these people are never going to win but will vote for them until it's time to get serious. Someone has to go each week and not necessarily the worst dancer. The person who isn't really a contender and doesn't have a big fan base is always going to be the one to go. In the end, the fans generally get it right.

georgysmom is 100% correct.
If this show was rigged, they all would be rigged, and if that is the case why do you watch? Just to aggravate yourself?
The really bad dancers get many pity votes. That's why they are still there. They are so bad people actually feel sorry for them.
I don't think the shows are rigged, but I do think they are a bit "tampered with".

Jerry Springer never made an A$$ out of himself, but Cloris Leachman sure did. Jerry was a gentleman thoughout the competition. He admitted he had two left feet and the main reason why he did DWTS was because he wanted to learn how to dance for his daughter's wedding. The night he did the waltz on DWTS, he as well as his daughter who was in the audience were both in tears because he had aced it. It was a very touching moment between father and daughter.

Cloris Leachman liked the shock value and whether we want to admit or not, most kept voting for her to stay to see what she would do next.

I loved Jerry Springer on there. I thought he seemed humble and very much a gentleman. I agree - the waltz was very touching.

Cloris Leachman was a pain in the butt from the very beginning. She reminded me of a drunk that gets one laugh and then doesn't know when to turn it off.
