Enough is ENOUGH, Hough!! And while I’m certainly glad (Weeell, more or less!)
that Dancing With The Stars' 6-time
Mirror Ball Champion Pro, Derek,
seems to have enjoyed his little High-hoofing Hiatus – Traversing the Globe,
Breezing through the Guest Star Television Circuit, Training in MMA/UFC
Fighting Techniques (WHICH, by the
way. I’d like to take a few extra Exclamation Points here and openly protest
with a “NOoooo, Derek!!!!!! Are you NUTS?!!! Battle it out in the Ballroom, not the Octagon!!”), Presenting Awards, Attending Galas, and Finalizing some very prominent Live Show Roles (So that’s something!), etc. – it very
nearly goes without saying that this latest Season of DWTS, while most gratifying, just wasn’t anywhere NEAR the same
when taking place in a Horrid Hough Hole!! <Drumming Fingers> Something must be done.
… Sorry, Derek, but you really leave me with little
choice; and anyway, it's for your … Well, your fans’ … own good! …. Just kidding (mostly)! ... Seriously dude, you're fans miss you! So, whatta you say? At least try and come back ... please??!! #NotTheSame, #HoughHole, #WeWantHough, #BringbackDerek!
