Dancing With the Stars season 19, episode 1 airs tonight on ABC.
The 19th season opener begins with 13 celebrities, including Alfonso Ribeiro, Lea Thompson, Tavis Smiley, Betsey Johnson, Randy Couture and Lolo Jones.
ABC describes the show as follows:
Dancing With the Stars is a series that pairs a celebrity with a professional dance partner as they train and then compete in front of a studio audience in a televised dance competition. The pairs will be judged by a panel of experts and also by viewers at home, with one couple being eliminated each week. In each round of competition, each couple will demonstrate how well their training and rehearsing have paid off, by performing a choreographed routine.
“At the end of each performance, judges will give each couple a score. At the end of the broadcast, viewers will be instructed on how to call in and cast their vote for their favorite couple.” Each week, one couple will be eliminated.
Dancing With the Stars airs Sept. 15 at 8 p.m. EDT on ABC. Video Here.
