It's a bad time to be backstage at ABC: not even twenty-four hours after word broke about behind-the-scenes in-fighting at The View, the Chicago Sun-Times is reporting similar agita over at Dancing with the Stars, where the tyrannical Cloris Leachman has proven impossible to send home. It appears the producers and fellow dancers are firmly on Team Florence Henderson, as they're tired of the 82-year-old Leachman evading the ax simply by hamming it up for the cameras.

She was asked to relay the best advice of her life. "The best advice wasn't intended for me and it wasn't meant to be advice.

Be warned, unauthorized apparel makers who'd like to place Dirty Dancing's famous "Nobody puts baby in a corner!" line on a cute t-shirt, for Lionsgate will sue you back to 1987 for trademark infringement. However, the studio has yet to file a suit over the use of the film's other signature line, "Just put your pickle on everybody's plate, college boy, and leave the hard stuff to me," which has appeared in countless works of pornography since the movie's release.
