I just saw the tape of the first episode. I already like this show, hope the ratings are good. It's perfect for the summer.As for the first showdown, I loved that Alex Boyd kid, he was great.
The rest were ok, but nothing major. I did enjoy watching it.
Debbie Allen is hilarious. I hope she and The Singer That Used To Be Carnie Wilson (TSTUTBCW, for short--lol), boy has she lost weight, duke it out at some point.
Joey is no Ryan Seacrest, but he held his own, give him time to get his groove.
Overall, this was a very pleasant surprise.
