Fans slam ‘DWTS’ for ‘boring,’ uneventful three-hour finale: ‘Nonsense’
history-making five couples dancing for the Len Goodman Mirrorball Trophy, fans expected the ABC show to get straight into the action.But the show completely skipped its usual glitzy professional dancer-performed opening number and instead played pre-recorded video packages of judges Carrie-Ann Inaba, Derek Hough, and Bruno Tonioli recapping the stars’ previous dances, as well as behind-the-scenes footage of the couples preparing to take the ballroom floor. Couples Jason Mraz and Daniella Karagach, Ariana Madix and Pasha Pashkov, Charity Lawson and Artem Chigvintsev, Xochitl Gomez and Val Chmerkovskiy, and Alyson Hannigan and Sasha Farber are all competing for the show’s coveted mirrorball. Soon enough, a countdown timer appeared on the screen, letting fans know that the competition would begin 30 minutes into the show.
