The actress, who will appear in a recurring capacity on the spin-off, will reprise the same role that helped put her on the map in the 1990s.<br /><br />It's not unusual to see original cast members make their way in spin-offs. And when said spin-offs have teens attending school, it's a regular occurrence to see the original cast member be part of the school's staff. Kelly Taylor is no exception here. The Hollywood Reporter confirms that Kelly Taylor will become <a href="http://www.hollywoodreporter.com/hr/content_display/television/news/e3i5e732e045deaaba34f7f8cc5544fc8ac">a guidance counselor at West Beverly Hills High</a>. Nothing more is known at this point about the character and if other <span style="font-style: italic;">90210</span> original cast members will join her on the show.<br /><br />Jennie Garth was also part of the cast of <span style="font-style: italic;">What I Like About You</span> and of Season 5 of <span style="font-style: italic;">Dancing with the Stars</span>.<p><a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/2008/05/10/jennie-garth-will-be-part-of-the-90210-spin-off/" rel="bookmark">Continue reading <em>Jennie Garth will be part of the 90210 spin-off</em></a></p><p style="clear: both; padding: 8px 0 0 0; height: 2px; font-size: 1px; border: 0; margin: 0; padding: 0;">&nbsp;</p><p><a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/2008/05/10/jennie-garth-will-be-part-of-the-90210-spin-off/" rel="bookmark" title="Permanent link to this entry">Permalink</a>&nbsp;|&nbsp;<a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/forward/1191907/" title="Send this entry to a friend via email">Email this</a>&nbsp;|&nbsp;|&nbsp;<a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/2008/05/10/jennie-garth-will-be-part-of-the-90210-spin-off/#comments" title="View reader comments on this entry">Comments</a></p>]]></description><category>Beverly Hills 90210</category><category>BeverlyHills90210</category><category>Jennie Garth</category><category>JennieGarth</category><category>spinoff</category><category>The CW</category><category>TheCw</category><category>What I Like About You</category><category>WhatILikeAboutYou</category><dc:creator>Isabelle Carreau</dc:creator><pubDate>Sat, 10 May 2008 17:05:00 EST</pubDate></item><item><title>Cameron Mathison dances into game show role</title><link>http://www.tvsquad.com/2008/05/07/cameron-mathison-dances-into-game-show-role/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.tvsquad.com/2008/05/07/cameron-mathison-dances-into-game-show-role/</guid><comments>http://www.tvsquad.com/2008/05/07/cameron-mathison-dances-into-game-show-role/#comments</comments><description><![CDATA[<p>Filed under: <a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/category/cable-satellite/" rel="tag">Cable/Satellite</a>, <a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/category/game-show/" rel="tag">Game Show</a>, <a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/category/dancing-with-the-stars/" rel="tag">Dancing With The Stars</a>, <a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/category/casting/" rel="tag">Casting</a></p><img width="200" vspace="4" hspace="4" height="312" border="0" align="right" alt="Cameron Mathison" src="http://www.blogsmithmedia.com/www.tvsquad.com/media/2008/05/0000031731_20061021003044-1.jpg" />He's an actor, a pin-up hunk, he's tried <em>Dancing With the Stars</em>, and now he'll see what it's like to be a Jim Lange or Wink Martindale. Cameron Mathison has been tapped to host TLC's new game show <em>Your Place or Mine?</em> Looking at those eyes, I'd let him redecorate my abode!<br /><br />"I'm thrilled to be a part of TLC's first game show, and extremely excited about the fun concept," said Mathison. "I think both men and women, of all ages, are really going to enjoy the show because there's a little something in it for everyone." Yeah, TLC is pitching this as a family show. Hmm...we'll see. If it can capture the <em>Trading Spaces</em> vibe, they may be on the right track.<p><a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/2008/05/07/cameron-mathison-dances-into-game-show-role/" rel="bookmark">Continue reading <em>Cameron Mathison dances into game show role</em></a></p><p style="clear: both; padding: 8px 0 0 0; height: 2px; font-size: 1px; border: 0; margin: 0; padding: 0;">&nbsp;</p><p><a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/2008/05/07/cameron-mathison-dances-into-game-show-role/" rel="bookmark" title="Permanent link to this entry">Permalink</a>&nbsp;|&nbsp;<a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/forward/1188762/" title="Send this entry to a friend via email">Email this</a>&nbsp;|&nbsp;|&nbsp;<a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/2008/05/07/cameron-mathison-dances-into-game-show-role/#comments" title="View reader comments on this entry">Comments</a></p>]]></description><category>All My Children</category><category>AllMyChildren</category><category>Cameron Mathison</category><category>CameronMathison</category><category>Dancing With the Stars</category><category>DancingWithTheStars</category><category>Family Feud</category><category>FamilyFeud</category><category>The Learning Channel</category><category>TheLearningChannel</category><category>TLC</category><category>Trading Spaces</category><category>TradingSpaces</category><category>Your Place or Mine</category><category>YourPlaceOrMine</category><dc:creator>Allison Waldman</dc:creator><pubDate>Wed, 07 May 2008 13:02:00 EST</pubDate></item><item><title>Dancing With The Stars: Week 8 results</title><link>http://www.tvsquad.com/2008/05/07/dancing-with-the-stars-week-8-results/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.tvsquad.com/2008/05/07/dancing-with-the-stars-week-8-results/</guid><comments>http://www.tvsquad.com/2008/05/07/dancing-with-the-stars-week-8-results/#comments</comments><description><![CDATA[<p>Filed under: <a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/category/oped/" rel="tag">OpEd</a>, <a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/category/celebrities/" rel="tag">Celebrities</a>, <a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/category/dancing-with-the-stars/" rel="tag">Dancing With The Stars</a>, <a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/category/episode-reviews/" rel="tag">Episode Reviews</a></p><p><img width="425" vspace="4" hspace="4" height="264" border="0" align="top" src="http://www.blogsmithmedia.com/www.tvsquad.com/media/2008/05/dwts-judges050608.jpg" alt="Dancing With The Stars - The Judges" /><br />(<em>S06E16</em>) It was a big night down at <em>DWTS</em> HQ. Not only would the field be set for the big semi-final showdown next week, it was also the show's 100th episode. That milestone meant that many of our favorites from seasons gone by were making their return to the ballroom. In addition, ABC recognized that nothing else they were going to put on tonight was going to measure up to <em>DWTS</em> numbers, so they kicked the whole thing off with a clip-show counting down the judge's ten favorite performances from the first five seasons. That list, and the rest of the results show goings on, after the jump.</p>

This week Jonathan weighs in with his thoughts on all of the couple's performances and picks his favorite dance of the night. It was a better week for the judges, but there is still one dance that he didn't agree with them about...at all. </p>
<p>Along the way he talks about the difficulties the pros face choreographing the performances as they move further into the competition. We also get to some reader questions. Read on to hear about his trip to the White House, the most, and least, memorable moments from his years on the show, and a sneak peek at just what they have planned for Tuesday's big results show. </p><p><a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/2008/05/06/jonathan-roberts-on-dancing-with-the-stars-week-8/" rel="bookmark">Continue reading <em>Jonathan Roberts on Dancing With The Stars: Week 8</em></a></p><p style="clear: both; padding: 8px 0 0 0; height: 2px; font-size: 1px; border: 0; margin: 0; padding: 0;">&nbsp;</p><p><a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/2008/05/06/jonathan-roberts-on-dancing-with-the-stars-week-8/" rel="bookmark" title="Permanent link to this entry">Permalink</a>&nbsp;|&nbsp;<a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/forward/1187410/" title="Send this entry to a friend via email">Email this</a>&nbsp;|&nbsp;|&nbsp;<a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/2008/05/06/jonathan-roberts-on-dancing-with-the-stars-week-8/#comments" title="View reader comments on this entry">Comments</a></p>]]></description><category>apollo ohno</category><category>ApolloOhno</category><category>cristian de la fuente</category><category>CristianDeLaFuente</category><category>dancing with the stars</category><category>dancingwiththestars</category><category>jason taylor</category><category>JasonTaylor</category><category>jonathan roberts</category><category>JonathanRoberts</category><category>julianne hough</category><category>JulianneHough</category><category>kristi yamaguchi</category><category>KristiYamaguchi</category><category>maksim chmerkovskiy</category><category>MaksimChmerkovskiy</category><category>mario</category><category>marissa jaret winokur</category><category>MarissaJaretWinokur</category><category>mel b</category><category>MelB</category><dc:creator>Brett Love</dc:creator><pubDate>Tue, 06 May 2008 01:38:00 EST</pubDate></item><item><title>Dancing With The Stars: Week 8</title><link>http://www.tvsquad.com/2008/05/05/dancing-with-the-stars-week-8/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.tvsquad.com/2008/05/05/dancing-with-the-stars-week-8/</guid><comments>http://www.tvsquad.com/2008/05/05/dancing-with-the-stars-week-8/#comments</comments><description><![CDATA[<p>Filed under: <a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/category/oped/" rel="tag">OpEd</a>, <a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/category/celebrities/" rel="tag">Celebrities</a>, <a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/category/dancing-with-the-stars/" rel="tag">Dancing With The Stars</a>, <a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/category/episode-reviews/" rel="tag">Episode Reviews</a></p><p><img height="228" alt="Mario &amp; Karina Smirnoff - Dancing With The Stars" hspace="4" src="http://www.blogsmithmedia.com/www.tvsquad.com/media/2008/05/dwts050508.jpg" width="425" align="middle" vspace="4" border="0" /><br />(<em>S06E15</em>) Last week things were turned upside down as Jason took the points lead from Kristi and Shannon left in a surprising elimination. No time to worry about that for our couples though, as week eight brings with it two more dances. If that wasn't enough, the lift ban is out the window. Each couple is allowed to do a lift in each of their performances, as long as it is performed in the character of the routine, whatever that means. Now they must weigh the prospects of it all going terribly wrong against the possible gain to be had in points and votes. Would Kristi reclaim the top spot? Or would there be a new leader? All that, and a rundown of all the week eight performances, after the jump.<br /><div class="postgallery"><p><strong>Gallery: Dancing With The Stars: Season 6, Week 8</strong></p><a href="http://"www.tvsquad.com"/photos/dancing-with-the-stars-season-6-week-8/790287/"><img src="http://www.blogsmithmedia.com/www.tvsquad.com/media/2008/05/112921_1753x_thumbnail.jpg" alt="Mario &amp; Karina" title="Mario &amp; Karina" /></a><a href="http://"www.tvsquad.com"/photos/dancing-with-the-stars-season-6-week-8/790286/"><img src="http://www.blogsmithmedia.com/www.tvsquad.com/media/2008/05/112921_1722_prex_thumbnail.jpg" alt="Marissa &amp; Tony" title="Marissa &amp; Tony" /></a><a href="http://"www.tvsquad.com"/photos/dancing-with-the-stars-season-6-week-8/790285/"><img src="http://www.blogsmithmedia.com/www.tvsquad.com/media/2008/05/112921_0742x_thumbnail.jpg" alt="Kristi &amp; Mark" title="Kristi &amp; Mark" /></a><a href="http://"www.tvsquad.com"/photos/dancing-with-the-stars-season-6-week-8/790284/"><img src="http://www.blogsmithmedia.com/www.tvsquad.com/media/2008/05/112921_0267x_thumbnail.jpg" alt="Jason &amp; Edyta" title="Jason &amp; Edyta" /></a><a href="http://"www.tvsquad.com"/photos/dancing-with-the-stars-season-6-week-8/790283/"><img src="http://www.blogsmithmedia.com/www.tvsquad.com/media/2008/05/112921_171x0_thumbnail.jpg" alt="Jason &amp; Edyta" title="Jason &amp; Edyta" /></a></div></p><p><a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/2008/05/05/dancing-with-the-stars-week-8/" rel="bookmark">Continue reading <em>Dancing With The Stars: Week 8</em></a></p><p style="clear: both; padding: 8px 0 0 0; height: 2px; font-size: 1px; border: 0; margin: 0; padding: 0;">&nbsp;</p><p><a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/2008/05/05/dancing-with-the-stars-week-8/" rel="bookmark" title="Permanent link to this entry">Permalink</a>&nbsp;|&nbsp;<a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/forward/1187327/" title="Send this entry to a friend via email">Email this</a>&nbsp;|&nbsp;|&nbsp;<a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/2008/05/05/dancing-with-the-stars-week-8/#comments" title="View reader comments on this entry">Comments</a></p>]]></description><category>bruno tonioli</category><category>BrunoTonioli</category><category>carrie ann inaba</category><category>CarrieAnnInaba</category><category>cristian de la fuente</category><category>CristianDeLaFuente</category><category>dancing with the stars recap</category><category>dancingwiththestars</category><category>dancingwiththestarsrecap</category><category>jason taylor</category><category>JasonTaylor</category><category>kristi yamaguchi</category><category>KristiYamaguchi</category><category>len goodman</category><category>LenGoodman</category><category>mario</category><category>marissa jaret winokur</category><category>MarissaJaretWinokur</category><category>samantha harris</category><category>SamanthaHarris</category><category>tom bergeron</category><category>TomBergeron</category><dc:creator>Brett Love</dc:creator><pubDate>Mon, 05 May 2008 23:22:00 EST</pubDate></item><item><title>It's finale time again!

We've only just started to embrace the return of our shows after a shortened strike season. Now, they are almost over. In the next few weeks all of our network favorites will say good-bye for the summer to be replaced with reality shows, reality game shows, reality soap operas, and Regis on primetime (again). </p>
<p>Needless to say, I'm a bit depressed. As I am sure you are as well. But, we will do our duty and press on. Thusly, we here at the sprawling lakefront offices of TV Squad (you choose the lakefront) have compiled list of when your favorite, and not so favorite, shows will be saying good-bye for their summer vacation. As usual, taking the fickleness of the networks, these times and days can change at a moment's notices. We will try to update you of those changes as quickly as our little fingers can type it out.</p>
<p>So, with a leaden heart, here are your season and series finales.</p>

Don't look for Brandon Walsh among the characters, at least not with the man who created him. <a href="http://www.momlogic.com/2008/04/which_90210_says_no_to_dancing.php">Jason Priestley admits that nobody from the new <em>90210</em> has even contacted him</a> about an appearance. In a brief interview with momlogic.com, Jason said, "I'm certainly open to it. I loved working on that show. I loved everything I did on that show. I had so many jobs on that show, I loved it so."<br /><br />On the other hand, <a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/photos/actor-to-character-age-differences/661488/">Priestley</a> makes it abundantly clear that he has no interest in following in the dancing footsteps of two of his 90210 castmates, Ian Ziering and Jennie Garth, by joining <a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/category/dancing-with-the-stars/"><em>Dancing With the Stars</em></a>. He just can't dance and he makes no bones about his inability to do a Fred Astaire or Gene Kelly turn. His hobby is on the race track, not the dance floor.<p><a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/2008/05/05/jason-priestley-says-no-to-dancing-maybe-to-90210/" rel="bookmark">Continue reading <em>Jason Priestley says no to dancing, maybe to 90210</em></a></p><p style="clear: both; padding: 8px 0 0 0; height: 2px; font-size: 1px; border: 0; margin: 0; padding: 0;">&nbsp;</p><p><a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/2008/05/05/jason-priestley-says-no-to-dancing-maybe-to-90210/" rel="bookmark" title="Permanent link to this entry">Permalink</a>&nbsp;|&nbsp;<a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/forward/1186601/" title="Send this entry to a friend via email">Email this</a>&nbsp;|&nbsp;|&nbsp;<a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/2008/05/05/jason-priestley-says-no-to-dancing-maybe-to-90210/#comments" title="View reader comments on this entry">Comments</a></p>]]></description><category>ABC</category><category>Beverly Hills 90210</category><category>BeverlyHills90210</category><category>Dancing with the Stars</category><category>DancingWithTheStars</category><category>Ian Ziering</category><category>IanZiering</category><category>Jason Priestley</category><category>JasonPriestley</category><category>Jennie Garth</category><category>JennieGarth</category><category>Lifetime</category><category>Side Order of Life</category><category>SideOrderOfLife</category><dc:creator>Allison Waldman</dc:creator><pubDate>Mon, 05 May 2008 13:04:00 EST</pubDate></item><item><title>Gossip Girl cast among People's most beautiful</title><link>http://www.tvsquad.com/2008/05/01/gossip-girl-cast-among-peoples-most-beautiful/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.tvsquad.com/2008/05/01/gossip-girl-cast-among-peoples-most-beautiful/</guid><comments>http://www.tvsquad.com/2008/05/01/gossip-girl-cast-among-peoples-most-beautiful/#comments</comments><description><![CDATA[<p>Filed under: <a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/category/desperate-housewives/" rel="tag">Desperate Housewives</a>, <a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/category/celebrities/" rel="tag">Celebrities</a>, <a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/category/heroes/" rel="tag">Heroes</a>, <a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/category/dancing-with-the-stars/" rel="tag">Dancing With The Stars</a>, <a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/category/friday-night-lights/" rel="tag">Friday Night Lights</a>, <a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/category/samantha-who/" rel="tag">Samantha Who?</a>, <a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/category/gossip-girl/" rel="tag">Gossip Girl</a></p><p><img width="250" vspace="4" hspace="4" height="349" border="0" align="right" src="http://www.blogsmithmedia.com/www.tvsquad.com/media/2008/04/ewestapr3008.jpg" alt="Ed Westwick" /><a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/category/Gossip-Girl/"><em>Gossip Girl</em></a> is getting a lot of exposure these days. A week after the <a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/2008/04/24/ptc-says-wtf-over-omfg-ads/">OMFG scandal</a>, the cast of <em>Gossip Girl</em> has made <em>People</em> magazine's list of the <a href="http://www.people.com/people/package/0,,20193583,00.html">most beautiful people of 2008</a>. No argument here. Eye candy is one of the main reasons why I love the show. My only complaint is that Matthew Settle and Kelly Rutherford were left out. Rufus Humphrey and Lily van der Woodsen are currently two of the hottest parents on TV. </p>
<p>Other familiar TV faces made the list, including: <a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/category/desperate-housewives/"><em>Desperate Housewives'</em></a> Eva Longoria Parker and Marcia Cross, Sarah Silverman, <a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/category/Ugly-Betty/"><em>Ugly Betty</em></a> executive producer Salma Hayek, Kristen Bell, Christina Applegate, <a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/category/dancing-with-the-stars/"><em>Dancing With The Stars'</em></a> Carrie Ann Inaba and Jason Taylor, Vanessa Hudgens, <em>Mad Men's</em> Christina Hendricks, and Minka Kelly from <a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/category/Friday-Night-Lights/"><em>Friday Night Lights</em></a>. </p><p><a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/2008/05/01/gossip-girl-cast-among-peoples-most-beautiful/" rel="bookmark">Continue reading <em>Gossip Girl cast among People's most beautiful</em></a></p><p style="clear: both; padding: 8px 0 0 0; height: 2px; font-size: 1px; border: 0; margin: 0; padding: 0;">&nbsp;</p><p><a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/2008/05/01/gossip-girl-cast-among-peoples-most-beautiful/" rel="bookmark" title="Permanent link to this entry">Permalink</a>&nbsp;|&nbsp;<a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/forward/1181985/" title="Send this entry to a friend via email">Email this</a>&nbsp;|&nbsp;|&nbsp;<a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/2008/05/01/gossip-girl-cast-among-peoples-most-beautiful/#comments" title="View reader comments on this entry">Comments</a></p>]]></description><category>gossip girl</category><category>Gossip girl cast</category><category>GossipGirl</category><category>GossipGirlCast</category><category>people magazine</category><category>People most beautiful</category><category>PeopleMagazine</category><category>PeopleMostBeautiful</category><dc:creator>Erin Martell</dc:creator><pubDate>Thu, 01 May 2008 11:01:00 EST</pubDate></item><item><title>Dancing With The Stars:  Week 7 results</title><link>http://www.tvsquad.com/2008/04/29/dancing-with-the-stars-week-7-results/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.tvsquad.com/2008/04/29/dancing-with-the-stars-week-7-results/</guid><comments>http://www.tvsquad.com/2008/04/29/dancing-with-the-stars-week-7-results/#comments</comments><description><![CDATA[<p>Filed under: <a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/category/oped/" rel="tag">OpEd</a>, <a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/category/celebrities/" rel="tag">Celebrities</a>, <a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/category/dancing-with-the-stars/" rel="tag">Dancing With The Stars</a>, <a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/category/episode-reviews/" rel="tag">Episode Reviews</a></p><p><em><img width="425" vspace="4" hspace="4" height="265" border="0" align="top" src="http://www.blogsmithmedia.com/www.tvsquad.com/media/2008/04/em112843_9546_pre.jpg" alt="Def Leppard and the pros" /></em></p>
<p><em>(S06E14) </em>Going into tonight's <a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/category/Dancing-With-The-Stars/"><em>Dancing With The Stars</em></a> results show, fans had one question on their minds. Would Cristi&aacute;n continue to dance after his injury, or would he withdraw from the competition? Naturally we had to wait until the very end of the show to have that question answered. The ballroom kids were replaced by Kenny Mayne and Def Leppard--definitely an adults' night.</p>

Now, along with all the fan chatter, we are getting reactions from some of the people involved with the show. Our pals over at <em>TV Guide</em> sent along a press release for their upcoming issue, which you can find in its entirety after the jump, with quotes from Carrie Ann and Bruno.</p>
<p>In a nutshell, Bruno thinks she would win. Carrie Ann says that Paula is fragile and won't realize how much pressure is on her until she's signed up and can't get out. <a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/2008/04/29/jonathan-roberts-on-dancing-with-the-stars-week-7/">I asked <em>DWTS</em> pro Jonathan Roberts</a> about it Monday night and his take was that he would be surprised to see Paula compete on the show because of her extensive dance background. He added that he thinks Paula has been around reality TV enough that she would know what she is getting into. I say, good or bad, it's a spectacle waiting to happen. What do you think?

The results of all their hard work left the judges scores landing all over the map, from 21 to 29. Jonathan is back this week with his take on all of the performances, and some thoughts on those confusing scores.</p>
<p>We also got to a number of reader questions. So, read on past the jump to find out which celebrity is on Jonathan's partner wish list, how he got involved with the show, what some of his favorite musical numbers were, just what makes the foxtrot so hard, and what Jonathan thinks of the possibility that Paula Abdul would be on the show. Oh, and there is also a bit of a teaser about what the future might hold for our favorite pro.</p><p><a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/2008/04/29/jonathan-roberts-on-dancing-with-the-stars-week-7/" rel="bookmark">Continue reading <em>Jonathan Roberts on Dancing With The Stars: Week 7</em></a></p><p style="clear: both; padding: 8px 0 0 0; height: 2px; font-size: 1px; border: 0; margin: 0; padding: 0;">&nbsp;</p><p><a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/2008/04/29/jonathan-roberts-on-dancing-with-the-stars-week-7/" rel="bookmark" title="Permanent link to this entry">Permalink</a>&nbsp;|&nbsp;<a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/forward/1180285/" title="Send this entry to a friend via email">Email this</a>&nbsp;|&nbsp;|&nbsp;<a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/2008/04/29/jonathan-roberts-on-dancing-with-the-stars-week-7/#comments" title="View reader comments on this entry">Comments</a></p>]]></description><category>american idol</category><category>AmericanIdol</category><category>barry manilow</category><category>BarryManilow</category><category>cristian de la fuente</category><category>CristianDeLaFuente</category><category>dancing with the stars</category><category>dancingwiththestars</category><category>jason taylor</category><category>JasonTaylor</category><category>jonathan roberts</category><category>JonathanRoberts</category><category>karina smirnoff</category><category>KarinaSmirnoff</category><category>kristi yamaguchi</category><category>KristiYamaguchi</category><category>mario</category><category>marissa jaret winokur</category><category>MarissaJaretWinokur</category><category>paula abdul</category><category>PaulaAbdul</category><category>shannon elizabeth</category><category>ShannonElizabeth</category><dc:creator>Brett Love</dc:creator><pubDate>Tue, 29 Apr 2008 08:01:00 EST</pubDate></item><item><title>Dancing With The Stars:  Week 7</title><link>http://www.tvsquad.com/2008/04/29/dancing-with-the-stars-week-7/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.tvsquad.com/2008/04/29/dancing-with-the-stars-week-7/</guid><comments>http://www.tvsquad.com/2008/04/29/dancing-with-the-stars-week-7/#comments</comments><description><![CDATA[<p>Filed under: <a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/category/celebrities/" rel="tag">Celebrities</a>, <a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/category/dancing-with-the-stars/" rel="tag">Dancing With The Stars</a>, <a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/category/episode-reviews/" rel="tag">Episode Reviews</a></p><p><em><img width="425" vspace="4" hspace="4" height="275" border="0" align="top" src="http://www.blogsmithmedia.com/www.tvsquad.com/media/2008/04/em112842_5813_pre.jpg" alt="Dancing With The Stars final six" /></em></p>
<p><em>(S06E13)</em> This is traditionally the herd-thinning week on <a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/category/Dancing-With-The-Stars/"><em>Dancing With The Stars</em></a>.

Who fell short of greatness? Read on to find out.</p>

Every season, a different pair is suspected of being a couple behind-the-scenes as well. Some of the rumors turn out to be true, and some do not. Partners Mario Lopez and Karina Smirnoff started dating after they were paired up on the show. </p>
<p>This season, fans have been speculating about the <a href="http://news.aol.com/entertainment/television/tv-news-story/ar/_a/dancing-ignites-another-romance/20080421113809990001">chemistry between Shannon Elizabeth and Derek Hough</a>.

Hough and Elizabeth even poked fun at the rumors after this week's <a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/2008/04/21/dancing-with-the-stars-week-6/">romantic rumba</a>.

This year's 60th Annual Emmy Awards will include a category called Outstanding Host for a Reality or Reality-Competition Program.</p>
<p>The academy named popular hosts like Ryan Seacrest, Tom Bergeron, Samantha Harris, and Howie Mandel as possible nominees. Ty Pennington, Tyra Banks, and Jeff Foxworthy are also eligible. I'm not surprised that reality hosts are getting this opportunity. The Emmys have had categories for Outstanding Reality Program and Reality-Competition Program since 2001 and 2003, respectively. </p><p><a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/2008/04/23/reality-tv-hosts-get-their-own-emmy-category/" rel="bookmark">Continue reading <em>Reality TV hosts get their own Emmy category</em></a></p><p style="clear: both; padding: 8px 0 0 0; height: 2px; font-size: 1px; border: 0; margin: 0; padding: 0;">&nbsp;</p><p><a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/2008/04/23/reality-tv-hosts-get-their-own-emmy-category/" rel="bookmark" title="Permanent link to this entry">Permalink</a>&nbsp;|&nbsp;<a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/forward/1175439/" title="Send this entry to a friend via email">Email this</a>&nbsp;|&nbsp;|&nbsp;<a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/2008/04/23/reality-tv-hosts-get-their-own-emmy-category/#comments" title="View reader comments on this entry">Comments</a></p>]]></description><category>american idol</category><category>AmericanIdol</category><category>carrie ann inaba</category><category>CarrieAnnInaba</category><category>dancing with the stars</category><category>DancingWithTheStars</category><category>emmy</category><category>emmy awards</category><category>emmy eligibility</category><category>EmmyAwards</category><category>EmmyEligibility</category><category>emmys</category><category>howie mandel</category><category>HowieMandel</category><category>jeff foxworthy</category><category>JeffFoxworthy</category><category>paula abdul</category><category>PaulaAbdul</category><category>reality</category><category>reality show hosts</category><category>reality shows</category><category>RealityShowHosts</category><category>RealityShows</category><category>ryan seacrest</category><category>RyanSeacrest</category><category>samantha harris</category><category>SamanthaHarris</category><category>simon cowell</category><category>SimonCowell</category><category>tom bergeron</category><category>TomBergeron</category><category>ty pennington</category><category>TyPennington</category><category>tyra banks</category><category>TyraBanks</category><dc:creator>Erin Martell</dc:creator><pubDate>Wed, 23 Apr 2008 13:01:00 EST</pubDate></item><item><title>Dancing With The Stars: Week 6 results</title><link>http://www.tvsquad.com/2008/04/22/dancing-with-the-stars-week-6-results/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.tvsquad.com/2008/04/22/dancing-with-the-stars-week-6-results/</guid><comments>http://www.tvsquad.com/2008/04/22/dancing-with-the-stars-week-6-results/#comments</comments><description><![CDATA[<p>Filed under: <a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/category/oped/" rel="tag">OpEd</a>, <a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/category/celebrities/" rel="tag">Celebrities</a>, <a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/category/dancing-with-the-stars/" rel="tag">Dancing With The Stars</a>, <a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/category/american-idol-reviewcaps/" rel="tag">Reviewcaps</a>, <a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/category/episode-reviews/" rel="tag">Episode Reviews</a></p><p><img width="425" vspace="4" hspace="4" height="213" border="0" align="middle" alt="Michael Patrick Gallagher and Alana Mallon - Riverdance" src="http://www.blogsmithmedia.com/www.tvsquad.com/media/2008/04/riverdance0422.jpg" /><br />(<em>S06E12</em>) Coming off of performance night, conventional wisdom said that Marlee &amp; Fabian would find themselves in the bottom two. The big question... Who would be joining them? We are now far enough into the competition that there are no more easy eliminations. And, as we saw, that other couple in the bottom two was somewhat of a surprise. Leading up to the elimination though, the bigger story might have been Shannon &amp; Derek reacting to the judge's comments. All that, and a rundown of the entire results show, after the jump.</p>

This week Jonathan once again gives us his perspective on all of the couple's performances. Then we make our way through some of the reader questions. </p>
<p>Along the way we learn about his past with Cheryl, Edyta, and Alec. He also touches on the difficulty of balancing what the judges want in a dance with what the viewers want. It probably won't mean the end of the questions, but Jonathan does his best to try and answer the age old <em>DWTS</em> puzzler, how the heck does the lift rule work anyway? And... Jonathan on waxing. All that, and more, after the jump. </p><p><a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/2008/04/22/jonathan-roberts-on-dancing-with-the-stars-week-6/" rel="bookmark">Continue reading <em>Jonathan Roberts on Dancing With The Stars: Week 6</em></a></p><p style="clear: both; padding: 8px 0 0 0; height: 2px; font-size: 1px; border: 0; margin: 0; padding: 0;">&nbsp;</p><p><a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/2008/04/22/jonathan-roberts-on-dancing-with-the-stars-week-6/" rel="bookmark" title="Permanent link to this entry">Permalink</a>&nbsp;|&nbsp;<a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/forward/1174056/" title="Send this entry to a friend via email">Email this</a>&nbsp;|&nbsp;|&nbsp;<a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/2008/04/22/jonathan-roberts-on-dancing-with-the-stars-week-6/#comments" title="View reader comments on this entry">Comments</a></p>]]></description><category>alec mazo</category><category>AlecMazo</category><category>cheryl burke</category><category>CherylBurke</category><category>cristian de la fuente</category><category>CristianDeLaFuente</category><category>dancing with the stars</category><category>DancingWithTheStars</category><category>edyta sliwinska</category><category>EdytaSliwinska</category><category>jason taylor</category><category>JasonTaylor</category><category>jonathan roberts</category><category>JonathanRoberts</category><category>kristi yamaguchi</category><category>KristiYamaguchi</category><category>mario</category><category>marissa jaret winokur</category><category>MarissaJaretWinokur</category><category>marlee matlin</category><category>MarleeMatlin</category><category>shannon elizabeth</category><category>ShannonElizabeth</category><dc:creator>Brett Love</dc:creator><pubDate>Tue, 22 Apr 2008 03:20:00 EST</pubDate></item><item><title>Dancing With The Stars: Week 6</title><link>http://www.tvsquad.com/2008/04/21/dancing-with-the-stars-week-6/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.tvsquad.com/2008/04/21/dancing-with-the-stars-week-6/</guid><comments>http://www.tvsquad.com/2008/04/21/dancing-with-the-stars-week-6/#comments</comments><description><![CDATA[<p>Filed under: <a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/category/oped/" rel="tag">OpEd</a>, <a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/category/celebrities/" rel="tag">Celebrities</a>, <a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/category/dancing-with-the-stars/" rel="tag">Dancing With The Stars</a>, <a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/category/episode-reviews/" rel="tag">Episode Reviews</a></p><img width="250" vspace="4" hspace="4" height="147" align="right" alt="Kristi Yamaguchi"  src="http://www.blogsmithmedia.com/www.tvsquad.com/media/2008/04/dwtskristi250.jpg" />(<em>S06E11</em>) As if the pressure on the stars wasn't enough, this week it was ratcheted up another notch. Not only did we have each couple doing a dance they hadn't done before, they also had to learn a second number. All the teams got together to perform as one in the big country showdown. It wasn't scored, but served as a pre-cursor to next week, where all the remaining couples will do two full dances. Would Kristi continue her reign atop the leader board? Would Jason or Mario knock her off? Those answers, and a rundown of all the performances, after the break. <br /><div class="postgallery"><p><strong>Gallery: Dancing With The Stars: Season 6, Week 6</strong></p><a href="http://"www.tvsquad.com"/photos/dancing-with-the-stars-season-6-week-6/765248/"><img src="http://www.blogsmithmedia.com/www.tvsquad.com/media/2008/04/112746_7267_pre_thumbnail.jpg" alt="Kristi &amp; Mark" title="Kristi &amp; Mark" /></a><a href="http://"www.tvsquad.com"/photos/dancing-with-the-stars-season-6-week-6/765247/"><img src="http://www.blogsmithmedia.com/www.tvsquad.com/media/2008/04/112746_7117_pre_thumbnail.jpg" alt="Marissa &amp; Tony" title="Marissa &amp; Tony" /></a><a href="http://"www.tvsquad.com"/photos/dancing-with-the-stars-season-6-week-6/765246/"><img src="http://www.blogsmithmedia.com/www.tvsquad.com/media/2008/04/112746_7005_pre_thumbnail.jpg" alt="Cristian &amp; Cheryl" title="Cristian &amp; Cheryl" /></a><a href="http://"www.tvsquad.com"/photos/dancing-with-the-stars-season-6-week-6/765245/"><img src="http://www.blogsmithmedia.com/www.tvsquad.com/media/2008/04/112746_6756_pre_thumbnail.jpg" alt="Marlee &amp; Fabian" title="Marlee &amp; Fabian" /></a><a href="http://"www.tvsquad.com"/photos/dancing-with-the-stars-season-6-week-6/765244/"><img src="http://www.blogsmithmedia.com/www.tvsquad.com/media/2008/04/112746_6638_thu_thumbnail.jpg" alt="Shannon &amp; Derek" title="Shannon &amp; Derek" /></a></div><br /><strong><br /></strong><p><a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/2008/04/21/dancing-with-the-stars-week-6/" rel="bookmark">Continue reading <em>Dancing With The Stars: Week 6</em></a></p><p style="clear: both; padding: 8px 0 0 0; height: 2px; font-size: 1px; border: 0; margin: 0; padding: 0;">&nbsp;</p><p><a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/2008/04/21/dancing-with-the-stars-week-6/" rel="bookmark" title="Permanent link to this entry">Permalink</a>&nbsp;|&nbsp;<a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/forward/1173920/" title="Send this entry to a friend via email">Email this</a>&nbsp;|&nbsp;|&nbsp;<a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/2008/04/21/dancing-with-the-stars-week-6/#comments" title="View reader comments on this entry">Comments</a></p>]]></description><category>bruno tonioli</category><category>BrunoTonioli</category><category>carrie ann inaba</category><category>CarrieAnnInaba</category><category>cristian de la fuente</category><category>CristianDeLaFuente</category><category>dancing with the stars</category><category>dancing with the stars recap</category><category>DancingWithTheStars</category><category>dancingwiththestarsr...</category><category>DancingWithTheStarsRecap</category><category>jason taylor</category><category>JasonTaylor</category><category>kristi yamaguchi</category><category>KristiYamaguchi</category><category>len goodman</category><category>LenGoodman</category><category>mario</category><category>marissa jaret winokur</category><category>MarissaJaretWinokur</category><category>marlee matlin</category><category>MarleeMatlin</category><category>samantha harris</category><category>SamanthaHarris</category><category>shannon elizabeth</category><category>ShannonElizabeth</category><category>tom bergeron</category><category>TomBergeron</category><dc:creator>Brett Love</dc:creator><pubDate>Mon, 21 Apr 2008 23:21:00 EST</pubDate></item><item><title>Would you watch a Marissa Jaret Winokur daily talk show?</title><link>http://www.tvsquad.com/2008/04/17/would-you-watch-a-marissa-jaret-winokur-daily-talk-show/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.tvsquad.com/2008/04/17/would-you-watch-a-marissa-jaret-winokur-daily-talk-show/</guid><comments>http://www.tvsquad.com/2008/04/17/would-you-watch-a-marissa-jaret-winokur-daily-talk-show/#comments</comments><description><![CDATA[<p>Filed under: <a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/category/celebrities/" rel="tag">Celebrities</a>, <a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/category/talk-show/" rel="tag">Talk Show</a>, <a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/category/dancing-with-the-stars/" rel="tag">Dancing With The Stars</a>, <a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/category/reality-free/" rel="tag">Reality-Free</a></p><img width="200" vspace="4" hspace="4" height="315" border="0" align="right" alt="Marissa Jaret Winokur" src="http://www.blogsmithmedia.com/www.tvsquad.com/media/2008/04/newlinegala_369_wenn5027901-1.jpg" />On the theory that it worked for another actress who play Tracy Turnblad, <a href="http://www.variety.com/article/VR1117984152.html?categoryid=14&amp;cs=1">Marissa Jaret Winokur is going to star in her own daytime talk show,</a> just like Ricki Lake before her. (Can Nikki Blonsky be next?) <br /><br />Marissa J, who's currently spinning, twirling and trying to look graceful on <a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/category/dancing-with-the-stars/"><em>Dancing With the Stars</em></a>, will be developing a syndicated yakker (industry talk for talk show) for Sony Pictures Television. The fact that another company is also doing the same thing for Marie Osmond means one thing: producers think that if you can dance, you can talk. That's a show business axiom, isn't it? Her show, if it flies, will be for fall 2009.<br /><br />Sony has dipped in syndication before with the <em>Wayne Brady Show</em>, which failed to click but did win the star a Daytime Emmy. Marissa is already an award winner, grabbing the 2003 Tony as Best Actress in a musical for playing Tracy in the Broadway version of <em>Hairspray </em>opposite Harvey Fierstein.<p><a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/2008/04/17/would-you-watch-a-marissa-jaret-winokur-daily-talk-show/" rel="bookmark">Continue reading <em>Would you watch a Marissa Jaret Winokur daily talk show?</em></a></p><p style="clear: both; padding: 8px 0 0 0; height: 2px; font-size: 1px; border: 0; margin: 0; padding: 0;">&nbsp;</p><p><a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/2008/04/17/would-you-watch-a-marissa-jaret-winokur-daily-talk-show/" rel="bookmark" title="Permanent link to this entry">Permalink</a>&nbsp;|&nbsp;<a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/forward/1170173/" title="Send this entry to a friend via email">Email this</a>&nbsp;|&nbsp;|&nbsp;<a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/2008/04/17/would-you-watch-a-marissa-jaret-winokur-daily-talk-show/#comments" title="View reader comments on this entry">Comments</a></p>]]></description><category>Broadway</category><category>Hairspray</category><category>Kirstie Alley</category><category>KirstieAlley</category><category>Marie Osmond</category><category>MarieOsmond</category><category>Marissa Jaret Winokur</category><category>MarissaJaretWinokur</category><category>Nikki Blonsky</category><category>NikkiBlonsky</category><category>Ricki Lake</category><category>RickiLake</category><category>Rosie ODonnell</category><category>RosieOdonnell</category><category>Talk show</category><category>TalkShow</category><category>Tracy Turnblad</category><category>TracyTurnblad</category><dc:creator>Allison Waldman</dc:creator><pubDate>Thu, 17 Apr 2008 14:03:00 EST</pubDate></item><item><title>Dancing With The Stars:  Week 5 results</title><link>http://www.tvsquad.com/2008/04/16/dancing-with-the-stars-week-5-results/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.tvsquad.com/2008/04/16/dancing-with-the-stars-week-5-results/</guid><comments>http://www.tvsquad.com/2008/04/16/dancing-with-the-stars-week-5-results/#comments</comments><description><![CDATA[<p>Filed under: <a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/category/oped/" rel="tag">OpEd</a>, <a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/category/celebrities/" rel="tag">Celebrities</a>, <a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/category/dancing-with-the-stars/" rel="tag">Dancing With The Stars</a>, <a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/category/american-idol-reviewcaps/" rel="tag">Reviewcaps</a>, <a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/category/episode-reviews/" rel="tag">Episode Reviews</a></p><p><em><img width="425" vspace="4" hspace="4" height="240" border="0" align="top" src="http://www.blogsmithmedia.com/www.tvsquad.com/media/2008/04/112745_1361_pre.jpg" alt="Dancing With The Stars pros" /></em></p>
<p><em>(S06E10) </em>There wasn't much room for mistakes in <a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/2008/04/15/dancing-with-the-stars-week-5/">last night's performances</a>, and several of the stars needed fan votes to make up for lackluster scores. I panicked after realizing that I forgot to vote on Monday, and wouldn't you know it? One of my early favorites landed in the bottom two. This week's results show brought us performances by James Blunt, Ozomatli, and more of the aspiring <a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/category/Dancing-With-The-Stars/"><em>Dancing With The Stars</em></a> Junior Champions.</p>

After the highlights and big scores of week four, things were a little rougher this week. I talked with Jonathan about that and a number of other things. </p>
<p>After the jump, find out how the difficulty of the samba and the rumba might have contributed to those scores. Jonathan also gives a little more background about what happened with Shannon &amp; Derek and what his role as potential stand in was. We also touch on what might be the cause for the string of male winners on the show. And there was just enough time to sneak in some viewer mail. </p><p><a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/2008/04/15/jonathan-roberts-on-dancing-with-the-stars-week-5/" rel="bookmark">Continue reading <em>Jonathan Roberts on Dancing With The Stars: Week 5</em></a></p><p style="clear: both; padding: 8px 0 0 0; height: 2px; font-size: 1px; border: 0; margin: 0; padding: 0;">&nbsp;</p><p><a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/2008/04/15/jonathan-roberts-on-dancing-with-the-stars-week-5/" rel="bookmark" title="Permanent link to this entry">Permalink</a>&nbsp;|&nbsp;<a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/forward/1167264/" title="Send this entry to a friend via email">Email this</a>&nbsp;|&nbsp;|&nbsp;<a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/2008/04/15/jonathan-roberts-on-dancing-with-the-stars-week-5/#comments" title="View reader comments on this entry">Comments</a></p>]]></description><category>cristian de la fuente</category><category>CristianDeLaFuente</category><category>dancing with the stars</category><category>DancingWithTheStars</category><category>featured</category><category>jason taylor</category><category>JasonTaylor</category><category>jonathan roberts</category><category>JonathanRoberts</category><category>kristi yamaguchi</category><category>KristiYamaguchi</category><category>mario</category><category>marissa jaret winokur</category><category>MarissaJaretWinokur</category><category>priscilla presley</category><category>PriscillaPresley</category><category>shannon elizabeth</category><category>ShannonElizabeth</category><dc:creator>Brett Love</dc:creator><pubDate>Tue, 15 Apr 2008 01:01:00 EST</pubDate></item></channel></rss>
