I watched the first season of this show, and definitely got the vibe that the voting is, sometimes, pretty rigged. I could be totally off base but, as I recall, an ABC 'employee' won that first season.

And, truthfully, I have no idea who most of the "stars" are, anyway.

like the aging George Hamilton, the incredibly admirable (and now "late&quot Valerie Harper, Florence Henderson, Cloris Leachman, David Hasselhoff, etc. etc.

But when they brought in all these RW politicos, I stopped watching. Talented celebrities and athletes in other fields are interesting to watch even if they aren't adept at dancing, but these hack politicians who only remain because of the stupid audience voting? I stopped watching some time ago.

Trevor Noah Exposes Sean Spicer’s Shady ‘Dancing with the Stars’ Shenanigans

https://www.thedailybeast.com/trevor-noah-exposes-sean-spicers-shady-dancing-with-the-stars-shenanigans

The Daily Show host then revealed exactly how Spicer has remained on the show. “He’s been getting the lowest scores and should’ve been gone a long time ago, but Dancing with the Stars factors in both scores and the viewer votes at home. So, once it became clear that he wasn’t going to win over the judges, Sean Spicer…started going on the far-right website Breitbart to turn this dance competition into a full-on civil war,” the comic explained.

“Not only was he bad about lying to the press, it turns out his hips also can’t lie for shit,” joked Noah. “In fact, I’m not even sure that he has hips. I wouldn’t be surprised if, underneath that stupid outfit, he just has the body of a Lego.”
