I’m really disappointed in your choice of Tonya Harding. While I love the show I will not be watching for that reason. in my opinion she is not a role model she cause someone bodily injury. And should not been put in your cast of celebrities. you have children that watch the show what message are you sending.. hope to see you in September
DWTS is my favorite show and I will never miss watching a season.Does not matter who the stars are! I do miss Derek…he is my favorite.
I love DWTS every season. I will say that Season 25 was welcoming! It was great to see that many well-known stars. I kind of wish some were saved for the next season of TV stars. It asked who I’d like to see. Well, Jon Bon Jovi! I adore him and his butt! I can’t help but wonder if he can do ballroom, salsa, cha-cha, etc. Please, bring him on! I am really looking forward to the athlete season! Be ing on the Gronk!!! Lol
I AM THRILLED TO HEAR OF DWS SPORTS PEOPLE PROGRAM. I CANNOT WAIT. I AM A BIG SPORTS FAN!!!
I’m a huge fan of DWTS and very much looking forward to Seeing 26!
I look forward to watching DWTS! Initially, I didn’t care for athletic talent only but I believe it will add fairness to the competition instead of a variety field of celebrities. It’s something different. I also hope DWTS will return in February.
I love DWTS and watch it faithfully. Does this mean they won’t return in February? I was ready for them to be back shortly.
I like watching the dancers, sometimes the drama is not appealing. But I enjoy watching talent !
I LOVE DWTS. I think all athletes performing is wonderful! I think it will be more fair. I haven’t missed an episode since it started. You bet I’ll be watching!
