Dancing with the Stars generates more complaints than Adam Lambert did

Date published | Discussion 0 comments

ABC received more than 1,500 complaints about Adam Lambert’s AMA performance, but it turns out that’s not really a big deal after all, because Dancing with the Stars is even more controversial, and we all know how crazy risque that show is.

Advertising Age reports that “ABC gets more complaints from viewers over broadcasts of ‘Dancing with the Stars,'” according to “One person familiar with the situation.”

I’d say that I’d love to see those complaints–Are they about unblurred costume bulges? Bruno Tonoli’s triple-entendres? Len Goodman’s crankiness? Samantha Harris’ babbling?–but reading them would probably be like reading Yahoo Answers, and doing that scares me more than Paranormal Activity did.
