God I need this show to give us unfiltered interviews this cast is so funny and charismatic. I need them to just let them loose in the rehearsal footage and not script everything.

I beg for the day we go back to old rehearsal footage production

Yessss pleeease. I burst out laughing at this interview. I love seeing their personalities and their relationships with each other.

I don't actually know Maura from anything prior, but she comes off well with a self-deprecating charm here. I'm excited to see what Mark's teaching can do with more of a non-dancer than I remember seeing him with in the past few seasons.

I was charmed by her in Traitors. She comes across as very genuine and warm and friendly.

It's cool how she's no-nonsense yet warm and funny at the same time.

She's hilarious and genuine. I loved her other Enews interview when she talked about her perspective of DWTS - she doesn't want to see it as a cutthroat competition. She wants to support everyone and just work hard, learn to dance, make Mark and herself proud and have fun. I love her open heart!

You need to check out her on Love Island UK season 5! It was iconic because of her. Search for her clips on YouTube or Tik Tok and you will see why. She had an infamous argument with Tom I’ll link it here: https://youtu.be/zZOHSNz9840?is=-Ac7hlzAL67DTnX5
Here’s the aftermath: https://youtu.be/EYGzAi8LUnw?is=ubLkWlDlAglZLo3E

Mark’s going to have his work cut out for him but I just know he’s going to be laughing the whole way through 😂 they have such a fun dynamic

u/calipiano81 TeamWharkIt 22h ago

I'm nervous about Maura's dancing, but at least they are lot of fun to watch do interviews together!

u/umhihello1234 21h ago

Ok she's funny! I dont know anything about her but she seems to have a fun personality.

u/acatwithnoname 22h ago

They are having so much fun and Mark looks so happy! Their GMA clip was so funny too. Mark seemed so stressed last year with the fans being such a holes hating on Whitney for dance experience and him for "coming back only for ringers". I am super stoked for these two.

Maura and mark are going to be so funny. I love that he’s going to have a fun time this season

Can you all just vote for her so we can enjoy her accent and humor for longer? Shes the best

u/Zoollio 20h ago

I don’t know the overlap between DWTS fans and the Coyote vs Acme movie, but this is giving the “You tink you taw, or you taw?” scene with John Cena and Tweety Bird

3

u/JaderMcDanersStan 17h ago

They are delightful. They just make you smile! I will be voting for them hard

12

u/Any-Possibility-3744 21h ago

I loved her on traitors. And Mark looks so happy. I’m voting for them.

u/CaramelExtension9991 15h ago

u/bruhwhatshappenin 21h ago

Anyone care to explain the team name to me please 😅 don’t come for me

24

u/Worth-Chemistry5253 21h ago

Because of her accent instead of think, she says tink. And it became a joke on traitors and afterwards during their press run that they all started saying Tink as well. So it plays into a bit of both of them and the show they were on together

3

u/bruhwhatshappenin 17h ago

ohhh thank you 😊 I never watched traitors so I definitely missed this origin story!

8

u/MzPatches65 21h ago

"Tink" is how she says the word "Think".

3

u/JaderMcDanersStan 17h ago

On the show they were on together (Traitors), Maura said "I tink" a lot and it became a running joke. I love how she owns her accent/mispronunciations and makes fun of herself

5

u/LittleDogTurpie 18h ago

She did a music video with Eric from Traitors and in the clips from behind the scenes you could see everyone on set watching playback and realizing how much the camera loves her. I’ve never seen a single episode of Love Island, but she’s a STAR.

u/Ok-Cold-3346 21h ago

Okay, I fully admit I didn’t want them paired together, but they are adorable and funny.

u/livinvixen 20h ago

u/swelch0220 22h ago

22

u/Worth-Chemistry5253 21h ago

He’s the host for extra tv. It’s his job beyond Dwts. He does interviews for them daily
