Finally the folks at Dancing With the Stars are letting Cloris Leachman take a shot at the competition. They were previously cited as saying that the 82 year-old Cloris was too old for the competition. Twice.

This would make her the oldest contestant since the show began. Poor Cloris Leachman, everyone picks on her. So what if she's old, she's Frau Blucher for Christ's sake!! And did you catch her on the Roast of Bob Saget? She is true comedic genius.

I'm not a fan of Dancing with the Stars, and I don't understand why Cloris Leachman, a respectable actress, would want to shake her groove thing on TV, and risk breaking a hip, on TV. Maybe she's trying to prove to the world that she may be old (thanks for reminding us Mel Brooks) but she can still boogie.

Or maybe she's just going senile. Who knows, but we'll definitely be watching.
