No one was tackled, arrested, broke a bone or otherwise created an embarrassing scene, but “Dancing With the Stars” still had viewers chatting away on social media Sunday night as celebs and pros tangoed and paso dobled across their screens.
Famous faces and names also joined in on the fun, including a few who jumped on the “vote for my friend” bandwagon:

Another found a way to party their way through the two hours:
