So I wasn't able to catch all of last night's awesomeness due to watching the premiere of Heroes (what's up with Mohinder and his sudden hotness? He's like the new Sayid or something.), but I was able to get enough of the gist of the show (and with some extra reading around the Interwebs) was able to get the update on the show.

Wow.

So I know it's only the first night. Everbody's nervous and nobody really breaks out that first night. Usually we only see possible flashes of brilliance. But what I'm wondering is why Toni Braxton had to cancel her Vegas show because of a heart condition only to go on this show, which pushes you to the limit physically.

Ugh. I was kinda hoping the Cloris Leachman would bring some old-school charm to the ballroom, but unfortunately she just showed some old woman cleavage. I wish that Susan Lucci would've brought some of the old Jane Seymour grace, but I think she's just so used to be being a witch on a soap opera that it's hard to let that go when you're not at work. Right?

And the guys. Really, dudes? Jeff Ross is better at hosting roasts than dancing. Lance pulled it out a little, but he got beat by Brooke Burke tonight, which is pretty strange. And Warren Sapp kinda surprised the judges by not doing too shabbily. He might even stay in a little longer than we all expected.
