It will be a season of surprises in what promises to be the biggest and most demanding season ever as thirteen celebrities take the ballroom floor on the hit series Dancing with the Stars, which returns with a three-night premiere event, MONDAY, SEPTEMBER 22 (8:00-10:00 p.m., ET) on ABC. Each week, all new surprises and twists await viewers. Season seven marks the largest cast assembled to date, the oldest and youngest competitors ever, and includes two Olympic Gold medalists, a Grammy®-winning singer, a television legend, an Oscar® winner, and a Super Bowl champion. Additionally, all four professional dancers who've previously tasted the thrill of victory return to compete against one another for bragging rights. Can one of them reclaim the mirror ball trophy?

For the first time ever, all thirteen teams must prepare two routines for the first week of competition, one of which they'll perform on Monday night. The judges will score the performances on Monday while the viewers cast their votes for their favorites. Only twelve will have the chance to showcase their second dance on TUESDAY, SEPTEMBER 23 (9:00-10:0 p.m., ET). In dramatic style on Tuesday's show, one couple will be eliminated as the remaining contestants perform their second dance of the season. The judges will score the dances on Tuesday and the viewers will once again cast their votes before a second duo is dismissed WEDNESDAY, SEPTEMBER 24 (8:00-9:00 p.m., ET).

  1. I'm excited for Lance and Lacey!


  2. I can't wait to see susan lucci, I think she is beautiful and will make a beautiful dancer. I am an all my children fan. susan is so petite and light it will be easy for her partners to pick her up and swing her around. she is my favorite to win.

  3. All i know is im voting for...

    KIM KARDASHIAN!

  4. I'm not sure about the cast this time...  I can't wait to see them dance!  Especially Warren Sapp.  Wonder if he will be as good as Emmitt Smith!?  And Cloris Leachman will be fun to watch, too.  Should be an interesting season this time!

  5. I think Lance and Lacey will go far.

  6. I think that there are some cast choices that are pretty much the equivilent of the plus sized model on ANTM. Sure, they'll be entertaining for a few weeks but there are things they just can't do and there are those who part of what they do is dance so they're better equipped for the competition - it's the nature of the beast. Awesome that Cloris Leachman and Jimmy Kimmel are on but you know they're not going to win - it'll be someone with a dance/music/sport background and it's just the way it works and that makes it boring for me. I respect that people like the show but I like some mystery as to who is going home.

  7. I think thier great


  8. omg...i saw the word JONAS!!!
