On Monday, Jennie Garth's Dancing with the Stars partner, Derek Hough, blabbed to TMZ that he might next tango with... the erstwhile Carol Brady, who is as hot as ever at age 73. Now all we need is Shirley Jones doing the quick-step. Or is there some other classic-TV favorite else you'd rather see strapping on cha-cha heels? — Ben Katner

If we're going to go that far back in time, how about my favorite pre-teen heartthrob, Bobby Sherman? He's still in great shape and as good-looking as ever.

Sorry but I think 73 is too old for such a physically demanding show as DWTS. It's not like her only dance will be the waltz.

Don't say that to Chita Rivera...

ctheslayer, you got me there. Chita Rivera's a fabulous professional dancer, who I assume has kept up with her dancing skills. I don't see Florence Henderson in the same league.

I would love to see anyone from the Sopranos in the next season of dancing. James Gandolfini could do a mean quick step.:|
Seriously though, any of those actors would be fun to watch. Michael Imperioli would be great as would any of the female leads, especially Edie Falco. Every Monday would be ziti and dwts night at my house.

Oh No Mrs Brady I smelled a rat Florence has been front and center on too many DWTS episodes this season.
Come On John Forsythe the men is almost 90 and the had to hold him up at the Dynasty Reunion don't think so.
How about Jaclyn Smith or Cheryl Ladd?
Actually Jaclyn couldn't she has had a lot of dance training. I like the Sopranos idea either Lorraine Bracco or Edie Falco.

LOLOLOLOLOLOL!!

I like the Jaclyn Smith or Cheryl Ladd ideas. Both are in their 50's and both look like they are in great shape.

"Mrs. Brady" is too old. And no offense to those in their 70's. I see ladies at the gym in their 70's who are in better shape then I am. But to have celebrities in that age range would be a mistake; I doubt they can keep up with the rigorous training involved for DWTS. And it's certainly not fair to their pro partners.

I still say get some rock stars in there!! Rod Stewart and Jon Bon Jovi for starters. Rod is an avid soccer player so he's in pretty decent shape and Jon is only in his 40's (and would look delicious in some of those tight costumes!!)

Ooh! Davy Jones! Now there would be a dreamy "get", assuming that they have a female dancer short enough for him. :)

Instead of Florence Henderson, they should get Maureen McCormick.

iamjillian I am right there with you Cindy! Bobby Sherman!!!!! ooooohhhhhhh or how about Davey Jones!!!!!

I saw both of them on a teen idols tour about 9 years ago (was it THAT long ago?!) and Bobby Sherman was sweet and a true gentleman to all his fans. I got to meet him afterwards. Davy Jones was a jerk. He insulted a young girl during the show and was the only one who didn't hang around afterwards for autographs. He was later replaced in the tour by Mickey Dolenz. I have no respect for Davy Jones anymore.
