Beyond ‘Dancing with the Stars’

So TV’s “Dancing with the Stars” has another winner.

Hooray.

I caught some of the finals last night without having seen the rest of the series. And having been to Dance Kaleidoscope’s season ending performance Sunday, I’m curious as to whether the huge hit of a show is encouraging people to either a.) do more dancing themselves or b.) go see the work of professional dance companies.

So do you watch the show?

And has it had an impact on you beyond the TV set? Are you now more likely to see DK or Gregory Hancock Dance Theatre or the work of touring dance companies?

Your thoughts?
