Dancing with the Stars All-Athletes Cycle Will See a Major Shake-Up
Big changes are headed to Dancing with the Stars when the reality competition series returns with an all-athletes cycle on Monday, April 30.
The show will see a major shake-up when Andrew Llinares, the man who brought The X Factor[/url] over to the U.S., steps in as the new showrunner. According to the [url=]Hollywood Reporter, he'll try to take the show in a fresh new direction while also keeping Dancing's core values in tact — a feat that will be anything but easy.
"The challenge is to find a way to hold on to the key values of the show, while moving it forward while keeping current and fresh," Llinares explained to THR. "It's definitely about evolution rather than revolution. Story and emotion are absolutely key for me. With that in mind, I want us to find ways to make the stories on the show even more compelling and the emotional connection, which the viewer has to the performances, even stronger. I also want us to come up with ideas that surprise and excite the viewers every week, so that they keep coming back for more.
"While some fans may be nervous at the idea of changes coming, it should be a relief to know that another reality flagship underwent its own evolution recently to great success. For the first American season of Celebrity Big Brother, which was similarly condensed like DWTS' all-athlete cycle will be, the CBS staple instituted a few notable changes (omitting Zingbot and allowing evicted houseguests to go home instead of the jury house), but the overall spirit of the show remained the same and fans couldn't get enough.
The new season of DWTS could follow suit and shake things up by cutting out some of the show's signature theme weeks (movie night, perhaps?) in order to make room for some fresh new additions, though nothing has been confirmed yet.
While we don't yet know exactly how the show will change or which athletes will compete, we do know that Tom Bergeron and Erin Andrews will be back as hosts.
Dancing with the Stars returns Thursday, April 30 on ABC.Makes me a tad bit nervous on this one...I am wondering who the Pros will be and will the regular judges be there???
Hey, CEK....I'm with you....a little nervous about this format and change to 4 weeks. It will be interesting, I'm sure!
The short time is what really concerns me too.

Re: Olympic Chat Party
Afternoon Sisters...
Hope you are all doing well. Hope our sisters in the mist of the new noreaster are doing alright. We got a very unexpected 2 inchs of very wet snow and snowflakes the biggest I have ever seen, the size of golf balls. It snowed for about 3 hours. Thank goodness it has almost all gone. Hope that is it for this winter.
I am busy today attempting to try to get this auto accident straight with the insurance company...So I am a bit angry and overwhelmed at it all.
I will be back later tonight to post some news. Kenzie has her spring music program so I will be going to that first.
Have a good rest of the afternoon and I will see ya later.
Let us know how it goes CEK. Oh....how is Oliver doing? Glad the snow is almost gone. What a crazy winter. LOL

I absolutely love him, and he’s an incredible person. We have this friendship that I have no doubt in my mind is a life-long friendship. Getting a chance to know him away from training for Dancing With the Stars, I think we've gotten a chance to know each other in a different way, which of course just makes you closer. Meryl
We fell in love, but our way. Maks

Re: Olympic Chat Party
Happy Birthday to Gabrielle!
Congrats to vmm on the robotics competition!
CEK, I hope you get the insurance business squared away. I can only imagine how frustrating that must be!
Thanks Booky....It is just so frustrating. I hate trying to convince someone that isn't in the medical field that I was hurt. It makes you feel like your injuries don't matter especially when they were caused by another persons negligence.
Hope your doing well. Glad you stopped by...HUGS
Ah, it is. It's the first day of autumn! A time for hot chocolatety mornings, and toasting marshmallow evenings, as best of all, leaping into *leaves*!

I am so over this insurance stuff now. 
Oliver is ok...his sugar has been up a bit but not high enough for insulin. He goes back next week for his recheck. I am also over this crazy winter we have been having and the weather channel says there is another storm in the works for the coming weeks....
