8 CommentsABC Opens Week on a Winning Note, Media Week
"Hero Buzz Aldrin got the lowest score overall, but could be saved due to the sentimental vote."
Keith's note: Go here to vote for Buzz.
I followed the link, but it appears voting is already closed :-(
By dancing that first dance on 'Stars, Buzz had already won.
Remarkably, space policy wasn't his thing. So I'm glad the dancing and his earlier rappin with Snoop Dogg thing is doing well. He has my vote and I wish him well in his new career.
Not to kill your excitement, but the voting is, well, not entirely honest. You need to remember this is a television show and the goal is to make a show people will watch and talk about. Audience voting has less effect then you might think, or wish. I don't know the details of this particular show, but I am familiar with the process.
It's quite possible that the winner of this contest was determined before the first show was ever shot.
Enjoy the show, but don't take anything you see on TV very seriously.
I'd much rather listen to what Mr. Aldrin has to say on matters of US space policy instead of watching him dance anyway.
He and the other astronauts are already winners and heros to me anyway.
maybe Buzz can wear a NO CxP logo next time!
Buzz and Ashley finished in first place! It helps to be an American hero-and have a gorgeous dancing partner to boot!

Buzz got to walk on the moon. He doesn't need my sympathy. He's already has something far more prestigious and fulfilling than some silly reality TV show prize. If I was Buzz, I wouldn't give a rat's rear end, and you know what, Buzz probably doesn't either.
