I suggest using the web to find the best Comcast Cable promotions and savings out there. You really can save a bunch if you know where to find them.

Whatever this season is,Dancing With The Stars - Love It! Articles I was tired of the dancing, judges, and contestants. The entire time Chloris Leachman was on, I refused to watch a second of it. But then along came Gilles Marini, Lil Kim, Ty Murray, Melissa Rycroft, The Woz, Julianne's boyfriend, Chuck Wicks, Denise Richards, Shawn Johnson, and a few others that really didn't interest me.

Who really did interest me? Gilles Marini was the one I couldn't wait to see. Marini was on my radar after watching the Sex and the City movie where he played Dante. He did not disappoint in Dancing with the Stars! Most of his dances ramp up the heat in the ballroom. Carrie Ann Inaba even mentioned how lucky his wife was.

Just like her short lived show on E! Network, Denise Richards proved to be equally dull and talentless on Dancing with the Stars The Woz may be a computer genius and he definitely seemed like a great guy, but he just didn't have the moves on the dance floor. Chuck Wicks gave it his all, and lasted longer than most. I didn't really like Lil' Kim until I saw her dance so amazingly well. Derek Huff did wonders with his choreography and inspiration. They obviously had real chemistry, and they demonstrated a high level of talent and skill as well. How stunning was it then that Lil' Kim was voted off ahead of several less talented dance partners.

The final four, as I write, are Melissa and Tony, Ty and Chelsie, Gilles and Cheryl, Shawn and Mark. You may recall the song-smith Jewel was originally slated for this seasons cast of celebs. However, Jewel fractured bones in her legs just a couple of days before the premiere and Melissa had to fill in. She showed immediately that she had ballet training. Her performances have been close to perfection, earning her perfect scores in the last show. But perfect scores don't always mean you won't be voted off. Just like Sabrina Bryan. She received a perfect score in another season and was eliminated early. The celeb dancer who has shown real progress is World Champion rodeo cowboy Ty Murry. Having a rodeo star background gave him a wide, diverse fan base during voting, but did little in the way of preparing him for dancing. Just like in Beijing, Olympic Gold Medal winner Shawn Johnson has showed us some outstanding steps with the precision we would expect from the diminutive gymnast. And rounding this amazing cast of celebrities is Gilles Marini who didn't make a move I didn't absolutely love.

Just which couple has the chops and the votes to win the judge's hearts? One dancing duo will be sent home this week. Who will it be? After that the three last dance teams have a final dance-off. I can't wait until the final show airs! Luckily I have a DVR for a backup just in case something comes up.

Watching Dancing with the Stars is even better when you watch it on a high definition TV. After several friends kept harping on how much of a difference it made I finally gave in and purchased a hi-def television, and boy am I happy I did! Holy Cow! I never imagined how much clearer my picture would be with high definition. If you get an HD high definition TV you'll need to contact your local cable provider to get the most out of it. I called Comcast Cable, my cable service supplier, and add HD channels to my already great channel lineup. And the HDTV picture form Comcast is amazing. While I was at it I added Comcast High Speed Internet and Comcast Digital Voice for a super low triple play bundle rate. My new broadband Internet service is lightning fast and has opened up a whole new world of multimedia that I didn't know existed before Comcast High Speed Online. I can call all my friends and family nationwide without paying long distance charges with the amazing Digital Phone service. If Comcast is your local cable provider or you're planning on moving to an area covered by Comcast, I definitely recommend calling them up and ordering their great services. The Triple Play Bundle is the best way to go so make sure you consider it. All three digital services for a big discount from Comcast.
