KandCsailing Posted August 26, 2016 #1 Share Posted August 26, 2016 Hi everybody! I couldn't find a thread started yet for the upcoming season, so here we go. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare CruisinCrow Posted August 26, 2016 #2 Share Posted August 26, 2016 Thanks for starting off the new season! I'm not sure what I think about Ryan Lochte possibly being a dancer. Kind of makes me not want to watch. :( I wonder if this was something he wanted to do before Rio or if he's just trying to redeem himself now.

KandCsailing Posted August 26, 2016 Author #3 Share Posted August 26, 2016 New season starts on Monday, September 12. ABC TO ANNOUNCE THIS SEASON'S "DANCING WITH THE STARS" CELEBRITY CAST LIVE ON "GOOD MORNING AMERICA" ON TUESDAY, AUGUST 30, 2016 So far we have Maks returning as a pro, along with his brother Val, Witney Carson, Sharna Burgess, Artem Chigvintsev, Lindsay Arnold, Sasha Farber, Allison Holker (back from her second baby) and Gleb Savchenko. "Stars" so far are (I added some of my own thoughts) ;) - Ryan Lochte (idiot Olympic swimmer :rolleyes:, 32) - Amber Rose (American model, actress, and fashion designer, 32)(Shaved head, tight clothes, has a son with ex Wiz Khalifa (rapper)) - Terra Jole (4'2" star of Little Women: LA, 36) Kym and Robert got married over the summer. Noah Galloway (the double amputee) and his fiance ended their engagement that happened live on the show. Peta is off because she's pregnant and is due early next year.

Sandy Sails Posted August 26, 2016 #4 Share Posted August 26, 2016 Yay, a new season! It'll be interesting. I hope Ryan Lochte isn't on - if he is, ABC is just grabbing the headliners for ratings. Boo. Like I said, it'll be interesting... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KandCsailing Posted August 26, 2016 Author #5 Share Posted August 26, 2016 I'm going to miss the first night because we cruise on September 10th. Hopefully I can catch up and remember to watch from my pvr before the second week. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
elycelynne Posted August 26, 2016 #6 Share Posted August 26, 2016 Boo! No Tony this season! (Of course I should be happy for him because at least he won't have to lose a partner in the early going.) I don't think Ryan Lochte is going to last very long. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KandCsailing Posted August 26, 2016 Author #7 Share Posted August 26, 2016 Boo! No Tony this season! (Of course I should be happy for him because at least he won't have to lose a partner in the early going.) I don't think Ryan Lochte is going to last very long. Tony did win once at least. Season 15 with Melissa Rycroft, who I think was a last minute substitute. Hopefully if Ryan and Amber are on the show, then they totally change what I think of them now. New news - Former troupe member Jenna Johnson will be a #DWTS pro for the first time. - Enews says Derek Hough is coming back as a professional and Julianne Hough as a judge again. - Brady Bunch actress Maureen McCormick, 60 - singer-songwriter Kenneth "Babyface" Edmonds, 57 - 7th Heaven star Beverley Mitchell is reportedly still in talks to join the competition, 35 - Wizards of Waverly Place actor Jake T. Austin, 21 - General Hospital actress Emma Samms, 55 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Scrapnana Posted August 27, 2016 #8 Share Posted August 27, 2016 As usual, most of the announced or "maybe" dancers are people I have never heard of. However, it's always interesting getting to know them over the course of the season. Anyone heard if there will be three or four judges? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Lois R Posted August 27, 2016 #9 Share Posted August 27, 2016 The Ryan Lochte thing? I know they had to book him before the faisco happened...I can't believe ABC doesn't have SOMETHING in that contract to get him off the show:rolleyes:....and now Brazil wants to extradite him back there......and if he is on the show, he needs to be voted off week 1. If I sound judgmental about it? Oh well, it is how I feel......I haven't watched the show in at least 2 seasons anyway......this one won't be bringing me back.

The rest all seem to be reality "stars". Ugh... Where are all the football players? :) I hope there will be 3 judges. There's too much talk with 4 judges and half the time, they run out of time and can only talk to 3 of them anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Lois R Posted August 27, 2016 #11 Share Posted August 27, 2016 Maureen Mccormick was MARSHA BRADY in the original Brady Bunch:eek: Emma Samms? She played Holly on General Hospital years and years (and years) ago. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
retiring soon Posted August 28, 2016 #12 Share Posted August 28, 2016 Hi all! Kerri ~ thanks for starting the thread!:D I'll be missing the 1st show or 2 also, going on a road trip to the NWT. I read Ryan Lochte was signed up before his Rio crime. . There sure has been a lot of talk about Robert & Kym's wedding & the pre nup. They make such a handsome couple. Emma Samms is the only "star" I have heard of.:o Looking forward to watching this season as always. Is Len back or did he retire? ~ Jo ~ :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Re: Football I saw one of the female pros in a FB photo holding a football. Apparently they gave clues to what it might mean. The clues were.... He played his entire football career with the same team! Has size 15 foot! Born in Georgia! People online are thinking Calvin Johnson, of the Detroit Lions, age 30. In the same post, Emma is pictured holding an elephant and Allison a microphone. Edited August 28, 2016 by KandCsailing Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare CruisinCrow Posted August 28, 2016 #15 Share Posted August 28, 2016 - Former troupe member Jenna Johnson will be a #DWTS pro for the first time. I'm not surprised about Jenna. They were featuring her a lot in the troupe dances last season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
retiring soon Posted August 29, 2016 #16 Share Posted August 29, 2016 Hi all! mafig ~ here's a little blurb I got when I Googled: "Australian-born Kym will get a maximum of $1 million and cannot ask for any of their real estate if the marriage ends. 'Kym will get $100,000 for every year they are married, capped at $1 million, if the marriage ends,' a source told the magazine. Read more: http://www.dailymail.co.uk/tvshowbiz/article-3733 Hopefully this will not happen & they'll live happily ever after.:D ~ Jo ~ :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KandCsailing Posted August 30, 2016 Author #17 Share Posted August 30, 2016 (edited) I'm a little confused that Et says Laurie Hernandez is joining the stars. Isn't she on tour with the rest of the final 5. I hope she is not doing both. Seems like a lot to expect of a 16 year old who just finished the olympics. I thought that was why Simone Biles said maybe next season. "Biles said she will take a post-Olympic break, starting with a pizza party and continuing on a 36-city tour with the team from mid-September through mid-November. Then she will determine what she wants to do." http://www.etonline.com/news/196633_olympic_gymnast_laurie_hernandez_joins_season_23_dancing_with_the_stars/ Edited August 30, 2016 by KandCsailing Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mafig Posted August 30, 2016 #19 Share Posted August 30, 2016 Cheryl has a lot of fans which will probably help Ryan. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KandCsailing Posted August 30, 2016 Author #20 Share Posted August 30, 2016 (edited) Cheryl being back surprised me. Who did Derek make mad that he isn't with a younger star? I think Marilu Henner has dance experience, but she is 64 now. No Mark? I'm rooting for Indy Car driver James Hinchcliffe because he's one of my favourite drivers and Canadian. Surprised he's actually included since he is Canadian. Feeling old right now finding that Vanilla Ice is a year younger at 48. Here's a ABC link to more info about the stars. http://abc.go.com/shows/dancing-with-the-stars/news/updates/dwts-season-23-cast-announcement-083016 Edited August 30, 2016 by KandCsailing Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
elycelynne Posted August 30, 2016 #21 Share Posted August 30, 2016 I may be getting my pros confused, but was it Sasha who found it challenging to dance with taller partners? If so, that definitely won't be a problem this time around. For some reason, I anticipate a lot of butting of heads between Derek and Marilu Henner.

Is it me or does there seem to be a lot of older people on this season? And yeah, for once Derek doesn't have a young athletic natural dancer as a partner. But I bet Marilu will be awesome.
