Well, it's official. Yesterday, ABC
announced their new line-up for the eighth season (!) of
Dancing With The Stars. And, as usual, the names chosen range from weird to ... even weirder (really, David Alan Grier?). Not that we necessarily disagree with the producers' choices, but we'd like to take a moment to suggest seven potential choices of people we believe to be fully primed for a spot on the dance floor.
Listen up,
DWTS producers. Season nine is just around the corner, and
Alan Alda is probably waiting by the phone. (...In our wildest dreams, that is.)

A huge disappointment for
South Park fans
everywhere:
Isaac Hayes has quit his role as Chef. It's no big
shock that, as a Scientologist, Hayes was offended by November's "Trapped In The Closet" episode. However,
many, including the
South Park creators, are shocked that Hayes chose
now to stand up against the
cartoon's disrespect toward religion. To back out of the job and say that the material is personally offensive is one
matter, but to scold the show for making fun of religions after doing season after season of jokes about Christians,
Mormons, Buddhists, Hindus, and everything else under the sun, is downright preposterous (and it takes a hell of a lot
to make me use "preposterous"). Frankly, I am saddened by both Hayes' decision and his reasoning.
Chef has always been one of my favorite characters... I'm too distraught to even make a chocolate salty balls joke.
