DWTS Season 19 - Discussion - *Spoilers*

Ugh. I'll probably still watch because I just can't part ways with this show! At least Erin and Mark are returning, wish Maks was also but seems he was expecting the 4th judging spot why he chose not to return as a pro & alas   . Hoping the cast is decent!

I'll follow Val's dances on YouTube, but that's as far as it goes. I like that Erin is returning, and I was excited to see Keo, but this last development just shut all that down for me. I do not appreciate the new producer bringing on someone whose judging on this show showed itself to be self-serving and vindictive her past two appearances. I also don't appreciate them bringing on someone who thought it would be a good idea to dress up in blackface for Halloween. And judging while simultaneously having your sibling competing on the show as a pro, is another no-no. I'd say the same thing (the latter, as it applies) if Maks was judging. The only 'pro' I can think of in his favor is that he is a certified judge.

There hasn't been one name rumored that I want to see.

Just curious, who are the rumored "stars"?
Thanks

I think I'm with you on this one. It will be nice to have my Monday's free for a while. It was hard enough to stomach the regular Derek favouritism, but now with Len (the only one willing to call him out), only being there half the time and Julianne now a judge....well, I've had enough.

Some baseball guy I don't know (as I don't follow baseball), Shania Twain and some other sports people

  ITA with all of you.  I didn't watch season 17 because it just wasn't the same to me without Maks and there were no celebrities I cared about on it and I got along without it just fine!  I think season 19 will be the DWTS/Hough show and I'm not the least bit interested in that.  

I would have liked to the see the new guy Keo dance but I'm sure I can find his dances on you tube.

Seems that Andi & Josh's name is still showing up on 'rumor casting' articles. Please, tell me that's not true.

Me too. Eight months of her on my screen is more than enough.

Well--
If it ends up being true,
If they end up making it further than the first week or two, after reiterating how they are not good dancers,
we will finally realize how set up and fake this show is.
