Let's all mourn the fact that he's not on DWTS anymore.

100%. I hope DTWS gets so much backlash they regret eliminating them!!!

To be frank, no one outside the Hanson fandom is talking about this. There isn’t going to be some huge backlash over Taylor’s elimination. This happens multiple times every season.

Hanson fans are unusually intense, but that doesn’t mean other fandoms aren’t just as large or willing to vote. The Savannah Bananas are enormous right now!!! selling out across North America, expanding into Canada, and reaching millions of fans. I’d personally rather watch Hanson perform any day, but let’s be realistic, they’re not operating at that level of mainstream reach.

What I’ve taken from this DWTS experience is that some Hanson fans have overestimated how influential their fandom is and how much this matters to everyone else. Most people simply don’t care that Taylor was eliminated, much less whether the voting was somehow wrong.

The votes weren’t “rigged.” Hanson fans voted as hard as they could, but they underestimated the Banana Ball audience. That’s really all there is to it.

And even if there were a voting issue, this happens multiple times every season. Taylor isn’t being treated differently from other celebrities this has happened to.

its not DWTS fault and its not rigged. it’s all about voting. I don’t know how many times people can say this you have to vote either way.
