[Tango-L] Argentine Tango on Dancing with the Stars

Tango is hard, remember? It takes years of work. The goal of the  show is 
for a bunch of complete neophytes to look good with very limited  
preparation -- that's what makes it a contest and generates the tension  
for the show. I'll bet that all the other dancers watching were rolling  
their eyes too ("you call that mambo?!") Guess I'm saying the context  
shouldn't be forgotten. I'd have been surprised if they'd actually done  
something else....

I think you missed the point, Jeff.  The Argentine tango was not  presented 
as part of the competition but as an exhibition by "professional tango  
dancers".  This was announced both Tuesday and Wednesday  night.
