View, thanks for the synopsis. That's all I have time for right now. I can't believe I missed the whole show. RL in the way. But, we now have a third car, at least until the one my hubby is driving completely bites the dust.

Two Men Storm The Stage After Ryan Lochte Dances On Dancing With The Stars, Details For What Happened
Wasn’t the incident last night on Dancing With The Stars scary? I felt so sorry for Ryan Lochte. Enough with the hate already. Anyway, Entertainment Weekly has details for what happened. KUDOS to security, the judges, the crew, and Derek Hough for the way they handled the incident.
Two men stormed the stage of the Dancing with the Stars premiere Monday to protest Ryan Lochte’s participation on the ABC show.
The men wore t-shirts that featured the Olympian’s name crossed out. A group of seven to eight people wearing the same shirt encouraged them from the audience just as judge Carrie Ann Inaba began to give her critique.
“Excuse me, excuse me,” shouted Inaba, as a bit of the commotion appeared on camera. While a stunned Lochte and his partner Cheryl Burke stood in silence, Tom Bergeron took the show to break.
That’s when the ballroom erupted. While most of the crowd shouted in support of Lochte — who previously copped to “over-exaggerating” a story about a robbery at gunpoint in Rio de Janerio this summer — Derek Hough rushed in from backstage in an attempt to quell the protesters who yelled “liar” to the swimmer. “You need to get your negativity out of here,” he shouted at the group of men and women, who can be seen in the Tweet vid below.
“This is my home and I was just so shocked that people would come here and be so negative,” Hough told PEOPLE. “This is a safe place for people to learn a new skill and seek redemption or start a new chapter in their life and that’s what Ryan is trying to do and I just felt so defensive that someone would try and ruin that for him and for everyone watching, so I took it upon myself to make sure they were escorted out. I wanted to protect my home.”
Several security guards, meanwhile, quickly grabbed the two men — one of whom fell back into Lochte, Burke, and Bergeron. The men were then handcuffed and taken into custody by the Los Angeles Police Department.
This video show the big pitcure...and coodos for Derek for getting rid of the protesters in the stands....
