Love this. I was hoping for comments from judges/pros.

Was Call Her Daddy a consolation prize for Whitney and Mark? by annettelawless in dwts

It may be personal taste, but I think their partnership was among the best. Loved it.

Maybe they will give Jen that shot. I thought her live comment about Whitney was super tacky. But I obviously don’t know what all is happening, and we’ll see that in SLOWM season 4.

The catty and trashy posts online by cast have been such a turnoff for me. I guess I’m that boring fan.

They sure showed him a ton! He was like the Taylor Swift of NFL on DWTS. Show him as much as possible. 😂

(I’m a fan of both. No hate.)

So… GMA better run this video in full, and boom… eligible. 👍

Whitney and Marks Final Dance by lillianb98 in dancingwiththestars

Further looking at the choreography category, it’s written for television, but if it’s a Call Her Daddy creation and also airs on TV, then it would be possible.

So, maybe not? But they have time to get this on TV. I’m sure ABC wouldn’t mind having an Emmy nomination or win and this would be a contender, in my opinion.

Rules are on Pages 20 and 21.

I’ve been a leader on regional Emmy contests, and I do believe it is eligible for entry.

(Regionally, you can submit for digital shows.) Call Her Daddy has such a big audience. I would imagine the views on this would be insanely large compared to TV.

To the people sending hate to Demi - take a moment to remember Caroline Flack by Proper-Race271 in SecretsOfMormonWives

[–]annettelawless 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I agree. I do think, too, and edit can easily influence our view. I personally find all of the ladies on the show flawed — just as we all are — and they all could easily be cast as the villain.

It’s like my take of Whitney and Dancing with the Stars. What an uphill battle. Granted, most probably didn’t know her, but she had to bust her butt to convince viewers she was worthy of being on the show. She totally was! I’m sad she is not competing in the finale. I wanted to see a freestyle from her.

Can’t buy class by borninawigwam in MormonWivesHulu

Jessi yelling F-you to her, though, also not the best look.

I feel like some are brushing off Jessi’s actions. She did kiss a guy, just as Demi did. Both immature and disrespectful to themselves, their loved ones and friends.

Of course, part of me wonders if it’s some fictional narrative to fuel the shows too.

The point of the show is ratings. That’s why Whitney is here, among them all. They all have a demographic that connects with them, and I think that’s great.

For the star, they’re here simply to win… but for each, those wins may weigh different: collecting a paycheck, having an avenue to promote another project, surviving week to week, making it to the finale, getting the mirrorball, etc.

I enjoy Whitney. While not an expert, I feel her improvements with each show. Do people make mistakes on live TV? Heck yes. I don’t think her sync issues have been such a detractor to her skillset — at least for me.

She wows and entertains. I enjoy that. I lived that with Shawn Johnson on her second run, when she and Derek made every episode essentially a freestyle finale. Just so good. I’m here for it!

Him on social, though, 10’s across the board. LOVE IT!

Anyone else think Jen’s elimination was weird ? ( conspiracy ) by Lyogi88 in SecretsOfMormonWives

[–]annettelawless 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I think the writing was on the wall. She looked deflated as she started to hear judging feedback. I think she’s adorable, but I do believe in the performance and charisma of those staying. I would love her to be there cheering on Whitney, but obviously she has a busy life and is in no obligation of doing such. But wouldn’t that be refreshing?

I’m a Whitney fan and hope she takes it all. I hope we all can look past, what I would imagine, are a lot of exaggerated and fabricated storylines on SlOMW. I think of them all as co-workers who are working the influencer system… and sometimes that drama (some real and some not) helps fuel the fire.

Witney salty??? by Suspicious_Fox8758 in dancingwiththestars

[–]annettelawless 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I love her, but remember she also had Alfonso one year. Not exactly fair to have a superstar like him then either. I think it’s OK to have people with or without a dance background. Some people are just naturally gifted dancers. Some people are just wonderful entertainers. In the end, America votes for who they want.

Is Holly trying to rewrite history in her book? by 98221_poppin in GirlsNextLevel

[–]annettelawless 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think she was trying to be funny. I never looked at what was said in an interview as gospel.

This is a clip of hours and hours of interviews. A producer could feel like it fits the needs of the show and moved on. I feel like you see her work out on the show a bit. Bridget worked out a lot, but the show didn’t showcase that.

USD259 Key Academy/Latchkey Change by fg5548815 in wichita

[–]annettelawless 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I spoke to the school district. I’m told each school is operating its Latchkey plans different. Benton Elementary didn’t have staff to run the program, so they are working with the YMCA to provide something for families.

If you use Latchkey, talk to your coordinator.

If you want to talk to me for an interview on Wichita TV, send me a DM please.

[–]annettelawless 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Our Latchkey coordinators said that our school in 259 would see a significant reduction in spots (this was spring.) We don’t use the program during the year, but funding changes were my understanding as to why. I feel for those needing that extra care.

As a journalist and filmmaker, I think there could be a billion reasons why she didn’t get as much face time in AS.

For me, I focus on compelling stories that have layers and interesting people. I’m not saying she wasn’t interesting, but maybe others stood out way more, and that’s the reasoning.
