Telly’s Take

Will ABC cancel or renew Dancing with the Stars for season 30? This is an unusual season to be sure but, even if the ratings dip much lower than usual, I believe the series will still be renewed for a 30th anniversary season. Will Banks return? That remains to be seen. I’ll update this page with breaking developments. Subscribe for free alerts on Dancing with the Stars cancellation or renewal news.
