He’s not the head judge, there’s no head judge anymore

I’ve been saying this for years, but Julianne is a far better judge, and Derek would be a far better host. He has the personality to connect with everyone, and loves to hype people up, which Julieanne is quite awkward at. By contrast, when Julianne was a judge some seasons ago, she gave specific critiques accompanied by detailed instructions on how to fix them. They really need to swap

Not making excuses for him at all, but I also saw he recently lost his soul dog that he’s had for over a decade & I wonder if his busy schedule + dealing with grief is more than he realized he could handle right now. But I agree, 9’s for every dance made absolutely no sense. 😵💫

They need a judge that is Simon cowell-like: brutally honest and scores appropriately

He then had the audacity to act shocked when Maura made it through. Having given everyone the exact same score, presumably that meant that he felt they all were equally deserving of staying or going home 💀.

Why would he start his tour during the show? Why not wait until after the show is done? That’s not a good excuse to be giving out 9’s just because you’re tired. I would like to think he said that just to be funny.

what in the guerena :
The way he said it was like he thinks maybe his judgement is off and that’s why everyone must be getting 9s from him. He didn’t say, “I’m too tired so I’m just handing out 9s.”

Then why did it take him forever to lock his scores if he was just giving everyone the same

Those judges scores really don't seem to matter anyways.

Derek is so annoying. His judging has been weird for a few season and he has biased scoring specifically for Connor. Connor should’ve gotten 6s

if he can’t handle doing both he should manage his schedule differently! or have kym or another retired pro fill in for him. it’s so unfair to just not properly judge because he’s tired from his busy schedule

I feel like they’re definitely all equal, but the ABC website does say he’s a head judge in his profile summary
