Re: Between Seasons Conversations

I have mixed feelings about Maks and Peta coming back this season. I just don't see them giving the time and attention to their partners and it could become the Maks Peta Shai show.

by **Glittersisgld** Wed Feb 22, 2017 4:09 pm

I'm just mostly interested in Peta, Maks as a personality. I'm not interested in every move their child makes.

by **kincaid53** Wed Feb 22, 2017 4:35 pm

   I enjoy both of them, but the baby will be what 3 months old, then there is the wedding Peta will be planning only a month or two after the show. I guess they feel they need to keep their faces out there...kind of like Derek.

      I have a feeling we will be made aware of every poo and spit up the baby makes and all about 'the' wedding.......really hope I'm wrong.

     Sharna for the win! Smile

Darn this will probably knock the lovely Jenna out as a pro Hissy fit

I would rather have Jenna there than some of the others.

It will be interesting to see what celebrity partners Maks and Peta will get. Imagine the "drama" if they both end up with real contenders? I wouldn't be surprised if that happens. Since Derek is not there, DWTS probably wants them to stick around for awhile. I'm hoping that seeing Shai on the show will not become a regular thing during Season 24 although I'm sure there will be occasional references.

I don't think we will have to do without Jenna. Most of the returning pros (Kym, Edyta, Karina) only appeared for one season, and I don't expect Cheryl to be back again. So that would leave a spot for her in spite of Peta's comeback. Jenna may have been eliminated first with Jake, but that happened to many new pros before; including Peta. Still she left a mark on last season with James and Sharna.

by **Lesallee** Thu Feb 23, 2017 3:29 pm

In the absence of Derek I fully expect Peta and Maks will get the lion's share of attention from the show. They are a natural feel good story. I won't mind as I like them both. I will be pulling for a Sharna win unless she gets an obnoxious doofus for a partner. Please DWTS, give Sharna a good one.

by **DeadManDancing** Thu Feb 23, 2017 3:38 pm

Amen.

It's official. No Tony.I wanted my fans to hear it from me first. I will not be on Dancing With The Stars this season, season 24.

While I will miss the show and interacting with our wonderful audiences, both at home and in the ballroom, I will continue to focus on growing my Dance With Me USA studios and teaching. I will also be traveling across the country performing and making personal appearances.

I will be hosting my second annual Tony Dovolani Foundation: Golf For Special Needs Children tournament on July 14. I’m honored to be a member of the PGA’s Player and Coaching Development Committee and to be contributing to the future of the professional game of golf.

Catch me on ABC's Nivea In-Shower Body Lotion Shall We Dance On Ice special this Saturday, February 25
3:00pm - 5:00pm EST 2:00pm – 4:00pm CST & PST 1:00pm – 3:00pm MST

So far I guess we have Mr. T., Simone Biles, and Nancy Kerrigan for the upcoming season.

by Oakma Fri Feb 24, 2017 11:55 pm

I also heard Victor Cruz .... who ever that is ....

by **Lesallee** Fri Feb 24, 2017 11:58 pm

Just read that Jenna is out as a pro so that pretty well confirms Cheryl is back. Don't know about Jenna back to troupe but I would think it likely.

Lovely Lady pro line up will probably be Sharna, Peta, Lindsay, Witney, Cheryl and Allison. Personally I would prefer Jenna in and Alison out but DWTS doesn't exist to suit me.

by Maria Christine Sat Feb 25, 2017 12:13 am

DWTSGossip tweeted that Allison is out.

Hmm, the plot thickens and the water gets murkier all the time. Maybe if Allison is really out Jenna will be a pro.

by **Lesallee** Sat Feb 25, 2017 12:38 am

Now Pure claims Kym is back for season 24. My head is swimming!

by **Glittersisgld** Sat Feb 25, 2017 1:26 am

I want Jenna! I just find her interesting. I prefer her over most of the others except Peta and Lindsay.

by **Lesallee** Sat Feb 25, 2017 11:01 am

I like Jenna too, Glitters, but both People and Pure say she's out.

by **kincaid53** Sat Feb 25, 2017 11:42 am

by **kincaid53** Sat Feb 25, 2017 11:46 am

What about Emma?

by Maria Christine Sat Feb 25, 2017 12:44 pm

So far, the pro line-up seems to be:

MALE

1. Maks
2. Val
3. Gleb
4. ?
5. ?
6. ?

FEMALE

1. Sharna
2. Peta
3. Witney
4. Kym
5. ?
6. ?

My best guesses are that Artem and Sasha will be back. The last male pro is still a question mark. Maybe Mark? Ashley Benson from Pretty Little Liars just started following him on Twitter and apparently some of the pros have been liking her posts.

For the female pros, it's been reported that Jenna and Allison are out, that leaves Lindsay, Cheryl and Emma. I can't imagine the show would let Lindsay go but they've left out Emma once before. For Cheryl, I'm not sure if last season was just a one-time thing or if she's staying longer. As long as they don't bring back a veteran pro like Anna or Karina, promote Britt, Brittany or Hayley, or get someone totally new then Emma has a shot.

by **Glittersisgld** Sat Feb 25, 2017 12:53 pm

How do we know that sometimes the dancers make the decision not to be in the pro group?

by **DeadManDancing** Sat Feb 25, 2017 1:51 pm

Jenna out? I hope that at least is fake news... Whew

But let's stir the pot a little more. Last night, celebrating their 10th anniversary, Let's Dance Germany started with a launch show like they do on Strictly. Imagine my disappointment when I found out Oti is gone! Sooo... where will we see her next?

by **Lesallee** Sat Feb 25, 2017 2:12 pm

Well, bro, you know full well where I would like to see Oti next! Probably doubtful so the long wait to next Strictly season begins.

by **DeadManDancing** Sat Feb 25, 2017 3:14 pm

I'm afraid so. However, on DWTS I would really be surprised if any of the pros who just finished the most successful tour ever wasn't considered- and that includes Jenna, Emma, Artem, and Keo.

by **Lesallee** Sat Feb 25, 2017 3:25 pm

We have a new broom sweeping the ballroom floor with the departure of Rob Wade. So it's anybody's guess what will be there when the dust settles. I have now seen two sources for Jenna being out and about three for Kym being in. They may all just be parroting what one said, who knows.

I am worried about Emma, DWTS excluded her before. And then I think of the mileage the show could make with the Sasha/Emma romance, engagement, impending nuptials. DWTS would be nuts to let that opportunity slip away, wouldn't they????
