Dancing with the Stars is a great show. This season showcased exactly how and why the show is beloved by millions. Dancing with the Stars also really came into its own. The stars were better this season, we had controversy and, not the best dancer, but the best performer won. Why does everyone love this show so much? There are some haters out there, some people who deride the program as your typical reality garbage, but this couldn't be further from the truth. Dancing with the Stars brings family-oriented drama and entertainment to TV. This is a show that families can watch together and root for their favorite star. There are no egos involved. ABC makes sure to pay close attention to casting. They cast likable and entertaining stars, not power-hungry normalcy of typical celebrities.

This season was the season of Emmitt. He embodied exactly what is great about Dancing with the Stars. He came alive, showcasing talents t hat no one knew he had. He improved dramatically as the season wore on. He entertained everyone with his huge smile and energy. Mario Lopez was great also, a whirlwind of flash and ability, but he couldn't hold a candle to Emmitt when it came to entertaining the masses.
