Ballroom Dance Sweeps Prime Time
Ballroom Dancing has gained more exposure to folk from all walks of life in the past several months than it has had in years. Beginning February 1st, this fabulous art, hobby and pastime that is often considered a sport these days will be on TV 4 consecutive nights!
Yes, you read it correctly - Ballroom Dancing on TV 4 nights in a row!
Wednesday, February 1, at 7:00 PM:
Houston's Channel 8/PBS will air segment 1 of America's Ballroom Challenge, filmed at the Ohio Star Ball, an event that is often considered the largest Ballroom Dance competition in the nation.
Thursday, February 2, at 7:00 PM:
ABC 13 will air week 4 of Dancing With The Stars. How will Master P hold up this week? Is his fan base big enough to bring him back one more time? Will Tia and Lisa make it to next week? Surely they won't sack George?
Friday, February 3, at 7:00 PM:
ABC 13 aires results for Dancing With The Stars. And, if you missed Thursday's show, here's a chance for a quick review of all performances. Be sure and call in to vote for your favorite.

Keep on Dancing!
