Dancing with the Stars is a reality show airing on American Broadcasting Company in the United States. The show is based on the United Kingdom BBC Television series Strictly Come Dancing and is part of BBC Worldwide's international Dancing with the Stars franchise.

ABC has announced that Season 8 will begin on March 9, 2009. They also announced that they will not eliminate a couple until Week 2.

Description

The show pairs a celebrity with a professional ballroom dancer. The professional dancer is responsible for teaching the celebrity how to perform specific dances, which the pair perform live on the show each week. The dancers are scored by a panel of three professional dance judges. Additionally, viewers of the program may vote by phone, text message, or online methods. The team which receives the lowest total score (a combination of the judges' scores and viewer votes) each week is eliminated from the competition.

Dancing with the Stars is hosted by Emmy Award-winning game show host and TV personality, Tom Bergeron, and E! reporter Samantha Harris (who joined the show in season 2, replacing Lisa Canning). For the first three weeks of the competition of season 5, season 2 celebrity champion Drew Lachey co-hosted with Bergeron while Harris was on maternity leave.

The panel of judges consists of Len Goodman (head judge), Carrie Ann Inaba, and Bruno Tonioli; Goodman and Tonioli commute weekly between Hollywood and London to judge both the American and British versions of the show simultaneously. Harold Wheeler is the musical director. The announcements for the show's titles ("Live from Hollywood, This is "Dancing With the Stars") and introductions for the dances and judges' scores were recorded in the United Kingdom by Alan Dedicoat.

Dancing with the Stars is broadcast live from CBS Television City in Los Angeles in Studio 46.

The first three seasons were not aired in the UK. BBC One aired Season 4 on Sunday afternoons from Sunday, July 152007. On September 282007, UKTV Gold began airing Season 5.[1]

BBC America began to air Season 2 of the U.S. series on January 6, 2008, combining performance and results shows into 2-hour episodes.[2] However, it was reported that many viewers of BBC America were unhappy with the decision, mainly due to the fact that the channel was showing repeats of an American-produced program, despite the BBC's involvement with the show.[3] http://www.idontlikeyouinthatway.com/pictures/20080527/karina%20smirnoff%20nipple%20slip%20/karina%20smirnoff%20nipple%20slip%201a.html

The show's first season is not ranked because it aired in the summer of 2005. If it had aired during the official 2004-2005 season and received the same numbers, it would have ranked #11, in place of Two and a Half Men.[10]

The September 20, 2005 drew 10.9 million viewers, while the results show two nights later drew just over 10.4 million.

Dancing With The Stars was the most-watched Thursday night program on American Broadcasting Company since Who Wants to Be a Millionaire in 2000 and the most-watched Thursday 8 p.m. series on American Broadcasting Company since Mork & Mindy in 1979. In its second season, it attracted high viewing numbers similar to those of its timeslot competitor, CBS' Survivor: Panama.

The first part of the series' second season aired on February 23, 2006. The other programs airing opposite Dancing With The Stars (14.8 million viewers from 8 p.m. to 9 p.m.) were: the Figure skating at the 2006 Winter Olympics on NBC (17.7 million viewers from 8 p.m. to 9 p.m.), an episode of CBS' Survivor: Panama (14.8 million viewers from 8 p.m. to 9 p.m.), and a results show during the fifth season of FOX's American Idol (23.5 million viewers from 8 p.m. to 9:02 p.m.).[11]

Mel B.; front runner for season five, turned down the tour due to her commitment to the Spice Girl Reunion Tour. It was revealed that Cheryl Burke was unable to participate for the first few shows during the tour. It was thought that something had happened to her appendix, although that was not the case.

A 4th tour is taking place with new couples:

General information

Edyta Sliwinska is the only professional that has been on the show for every season. Cheryl Burke, Tony Dovolani, Karina Smirnoff, Kym Johnson, Julianne Hough, Derek Hough, and Mark Ballas have been on the show every season since their debut as professionals.

Scoring and voting procedure

Starting in Season 3, the procedure for eliminating couples changed. Previously, only the overall ranking between competitors by the judges and the public was relevant. Starting in Season 3, the differential is now relevant.

The scoring begins with the judges' marks. Each judge gives a 1 to 10 score, allowing for a highest score of 30, and a lowest score of three (though the lowest individual score ever given was a 2- Season 2, Master P, Paso Doble, and the lowest combined score was an 8). With multiple performances, the scores would all be added at the end of the program. The scores for all competitors are added together and each contestant's "judge share" is determined by dividing their score by the sum of all the scores combined and recorded as a percentage. This percentage is then added to the percentage of North American votes received by each contestant. The bottom two couples are identified in the results show, and the couple with the lowest combined total is eliminated.[12]

Public voting is conducted via a toll-free number, the ABC web site, and, most recently, text messages. Voters can place up to the number of couples performing that night to a minimum of 5 votes per medium during and immediately after each performance show.

Withdrawals

Sara Evans in the third season was the first celebrity to withdraw from the competition, while in progress. She cited her divorce as the reason for leaving the competition. As a result, her professional partner, Tony Dovolani also became the first professional dancer to withdraw from the competition.

Another withdrawal occurred during the run-up to Season 4, on February 28 when Vincent Pastore withdrew from the competition after only one week of training. Pastore said he did not realize how much work was needed during a ten-week period, and that he was not up to the physical demands of the show. He was replaced on March 2 by actor John Ratzenberger who was partnered with Edyta Sliwinska.[13]

Misty May-Treanor was forced to withdraw from Season 7 after tearing her Achilles tendon during rehearsals. The injury required surgery. Her partner Maksim Chmerkovskiy became the second professional to withdraw from the competition.

Relationships

Over the seasons there have only been three confirmed relationships between a professional dancer and their celebrity partner. These were Season 3's Mario Lopez and Karina Smirnoff, Season 5's Sabrina Bryan and Mark Ballas, and Season 6's Shannon Elizabeth and Derek Hough[14].Jullianne Hough and Chuck Wicks on the new season of dancing with the stars are boyfriend and girlfriend

Edyta Sliwinska and Alec Mazo are married. Jonathan Roberts and Anna Trebunskaya are married. Season 2's Lisa Rinna has been married to Season 3's Harry Hamlin since 1997, prior to either's appearance on the show. Professionals Maksim Chmerkovskiy and Karina Smirnoff have both been seen cuddling together since Misty and Maks' withdrawal from the competition due to Misty's injury. The couple just annouced their engagement right before the new year of 2009. Season 8's Jewel and Ty Murray are married.

Family

Derek Hough and Julianne Hough are brother and sister. Corky Ballas and Mark Ballas are father and son.

Celebrity injuries

On Season 5, Marie Osmond fainted on Week 5 after her performance. The show immediately went to commercial break. On Week 6, Jane Seymour was also absent on the results show due to food poisoning.

On Season 6, Kristi Yamaguchi injured her ankle on Week 4. This did not affect her performance or attendance. On Monday April 28, 2008 (Week 7), Cristián de la Fuente suffered a ruptured tendon in his left biceps muscle during his performance. The judges critiqued him according to his performance up to the injury. He was sent to the hospital immediately and missed the end of the show.

On August 24, 2008 (the day before she was named as a celebrity contestant), Kim Kardashian cut her foot on a piece of a broken mirror in her hotel room, which she spoke about to Robin Roberts, Sam Champion and Tom Bergeron on Good Morning America the next day. Doctors told her she could still dance in season 7.

On September 22, 2008, while rehearsing for that night's performance, Jeffrey Ross suffered a scratched cornea in his left eye. He wore a rhinestone-studded eye patch in jest of the injury.[15]

On October 4, 2008, Misty May-Treanor had ruptured her Achilles tendon during rehearsal and was forced to withdraw from the competition, requiring surgery for her injury.

In October 2008, Susan Lucci had sprained her ankle while rehearsing for that night's performance. She explained that she slides underneath partner Tony Dovolani's legs in the routine, and she "didn't put her butt down in time" and rolled her ankle, thus spraining it. She still performed that night, her ankle wrapped. It was later announced that she had actually fractured two bones in her right foot.

On October 19, 2008, Brooke Burke was taken to the hospital after injuring her foot. She was performing the jitterbug with partner Derek Hough for camera blocking when she landed hard on her right foot while performing a front flip.

Lance Bass also fractured his toe. Maurice Greene hyper-extended his leg during a group paso doble rehearsal.

Professional partner injuries

Season 3

Jerry Springer's partner, Kym Johnson hyperextended one of her legs but kept on performing.

Season 5

Mark Ballas dislocated his shoulder on the Season Finale during his and Sabrina Bryan's encore dance. He was immediately sent to the hospital for the rest of the night.

Season 6

Karina Smirnoff told dance partner Mario she had to get surgery for a neck injury she had suffered.

On April 1, 2008 (Week 3), Derek Hough injured his neck when practicing for a routine he and his sister, Julianne Hough, and their friend Mark Ballas were to perform to a live performance on that night's results show by Kylie Minogue of her hit song Can't Get You Out Of My Head. Derek appeared on the results show but Mark and Julianne danced the routine without him.

In Week 5, Derek Hough contracted food poisoning from a protein shake that he drank earlier on performance day.

Season 7

Karina Smirnoff sprained her left ankle during rehearsals the morning of performance, September 22. She performed that night, ankle fully wrapped, with celebrity partner, Rocco DiSpirito.

Derek Hough blacked out after tripping and hitting his head on October 4, 2008. He was rushed to a hospital, and was cleared to continue with the competition.[16]

Julianne Hough was rushed to the hospital after the October 21, 2008 results show with increasingly severe stomach pains. She was released the same night after it was determined that it was "just a bad stomach ache". However, she was ordered to sit out the group hip-hop dance rehearsals the next day as a precaution.[17]

However, on the October 27 performance show, Hough announced that she had been diagnosed with Endometriosis and would be having surgery on October 28 for appendix removal. Hough's dance partner Cody Linley would remain in the competition, and be teamed with Edyta Sliwinska, who was paired with comedian Jeffrey Ross. They were eliminated in the season's first elimination. It was announced that this pairing was indefinite and would last as long as Hough needed to recover. It was announced on the November 11th, 2008 results show that Julianne was returning the next week and returned to dance on that show with Derek in the fan-created "Stars of Dance".

100th episode celebration

The show celebrated its 100th episode on Tuesday, May 6, 2008.[18] More than 30 former cast members and pros returned, with interviews with Stacy Keibler, Lisa Rinna, Jerry Springer, Vivica A.
