Official Dancing With the Stars - Fall 2020

[Imzadi]

Monica!!! Yea!! I ended up watching that series three times. Finally, someone to root for this season!

Do you think she can move herself? DWTS has had plenty of more athletic women on who've won or made it to the finals.

Melissa Rycroft, who won the DWTS All Stars with Tony, had been a cheerleader.

Oh yeah - remember the scenes with her working out? She's very fit. I know that doesn't mean she can "move" dance-wise, but it certainly helps.

 

[Imzadi]

I haven't seen Cheer yet. I usually get Netflix about once a year and binge all the shows then.

Oh sorry, thought you had seen it.

 

[Imzadi]

Oh sorry, thought you had seen it.

That's okay. I heard Cheer is really, really good. And like you, there are many people who love it.

Do you know who I predict will be partnered up with Sasha since he’s the last male standing?


JoJo Siwa!

I remember that about Melissa. She definitely danced like a cheerleader.

Carole Baskin? Lordy, she's as far from a celebrity as I am.
She's under suspicion for possibly murdering her husband too.

She said she wanted to come on so people can see another side of her that wasn't represented. Plus, she said the longer she is on dancing, the more the big cats will get much needed attention. That, of course is the real reason she is on.

 

[Imzadi]

Mandy's got 2 more (unofficially) confirmed pairings:

Nev Schulman & Jenna
Justina Machado & Sasha

That leaves Charles Oakley & Johnny Weir with either
Emma or Britt (who is a newbie.)

Copying over the (unofficially) confirmed pairings from the last page:

Part 3: The rest of the cast:

 

[AustinTink]

Ok, so, I haven't watched Tiger King. I'll start with that. But, what I've read about the show, these people sound totally skeevy. Not to mention, is this woman not being investigated for murder? Or, is that just some rumor?

All I know is, I read some stuff about the Tiger King guy, what ever his name is, that made me never want to watch that show. Then again, it was in the Daily Mail, so it might not even be true. Why do I read that rag??

 

[Kirby]

I'm interested in seeing Johnny, Skai and the coach so I'll watch to see how it goes. The guy that was on Desparate Housewives has really gotten nice looking hasn't he? While I don't know names for most of them, I recognize the majority which is more than I've recognized some seasons.

 

[disneygirlsng]

Yes Monica!! Now I get to say I've met someone on this show haha. Definitely recommend watching the show on Netflix if you haven't. Though I may be a bit biased since I've cheered with some of them and trained at the same all star gym most of them cheer at. (Also the same team that is currently being featured on AGT, many Navarro cheerleaders on that team)

Jessie's gotten nice looking? I always thought he was. I always wondered why his career stalled after Desperate Housewives? Then he ended up on cable TV and has stayed there when he has the looks for the major network TV channels. Although, those of us who watch Hallmark movies don't mind him ending up on that channel.

I predict he will have Danica McKeller and Carlos & Alexa PenaVega rooting for him, to represent the Hallmark Channel. I wonder if DWTS will show Zoom audience members rooting for contestants after they dance? Or will they place cardboard replicas of real people sitting in the audience they way it's done at baseball games?

Nev from catfish almost brought me back I just can’t do Tyra but I will check into this thread to see how it’s going

 

[mandy200587]

Derek bough is returning to dancing in some fashion. We’ll find out Tuesday what it is. My guess is as a judge

Nev from catfish almost brought me back I just can’t do Tyra but I will check into this thread to see how it’s going

Yeah, so far, I HATE Tyra! She YELLED at us to watch the announcement this morning. She was all diva-y, and acted like she was chewing out the 19 year old, would-be models on America's Next Top Model.

I was looking at my computer monitor, getting ready to type out the new stars. Suddenly I heard her YELLING at us. She was actually scary for a moment, it was so unexpected, berating us that early in the morning, being YELLED at, especially on GMA. I had the sound up so I could hear any new names being announced. I clearly hadn't had enough coffee to deal with an unexpected Tyra diva attitude.

I notice they left that part off of the beginning of the first clip of the intros. They started with only a 2 second intro by her. As host, you'd think they'd have had more of her.

I hope she's not going to be that way on the show. Tom had such elegance and class and self-deprecating humor. He was warm and INVITING. No need to yell at us to watch.
