Dancing with the Stars took home the award for Favorite Reality Show at last night's People's Choice Awards, beating out American Idol and Extreme Makeover: Home Edition.

"I'm telling you guys, this really means the world to us," said Dancing with the Stars judge Bruno Tonioli, who accepted the award with fellow judge Carrie Ann Inaba.  "This comes from you guys -- this is from the hearts of America.  You've embraced us and we love you.  Thank you very much."

"No one believed a ballroom dance show would be interesting," added Inaba.  "We thank you for just kind of joining in with us on the ride.  It's an honor."
