| TV.com summary | |
Dancing with the Stars is a reality show airing on American Broadcasting Company in the United States. The show is based on the United Kingdom BBC Television series Strictly Come Dancing and is part of BBC Worldwide's international Dancing with the Stars franchise.
The concept of the show is to pair a celebrity with a professional dancer. The professional dancer is responsible for teaching the celebrity how to perform specific dances, which they perform live on the show each week. They are scored by a panel of three professional ballroom judges, as well as by votes from viewers, who can call in, text or vote online. The celebrity/professional team who receives the lowest total score (a combination of the judges' scores and the number of votes) each week is eliminated from the competition.
The current edition of the series is hosted by Emmy Award-winning game show host and television personality, Tom Bergeron, and former model, Samantha Harris. In season 1, Bergeron's co-host was Lisa Canning. For the first three weeks of the fifth season, season two celebrity champion Drew Lachey co-hosted with Bergeron while Harris was on maternity leave. The panel of judges consists of Len Goodman (head judge), Carrie Ann Inaba, and Bruno Tonioli. Harold Wheeler is the musical director. The announcements for the show's titles ("Live from Hollywood, This is "Dancing With the Stars") and introductions for the dances and judges' scores were recorded in the United Kingdom by Alan Dedicoat.
Dancing with the Stars is broadcast live from CBS Television City in Los Angeles in Studio 46. American Idol is housed next door in Studio 36.
Although the first three seasons were not aired in the UK, Season 4 was broadcast on BBC One on Sunday afternoons from Sunday 15th July 2007. Season 5 started airing on UKTV Gold in the UK starting September 28, 2007.[1]

The show's first season is not ranked because it aired in the summer of 2005. Assuming it would have the same viewing numbers from the summer, if it did air within the 2004-2005 official television season, it would have ranked #11.
10.9 million viewers tuned into the September 20, 2005 dance-off while just over 10.4 million watched the September 22, 2005 results show.
Dancing With The Stars was the most-watched Thursday night program on ABC since Who Wants to Be a Millionaire in 2000 and the most-watched Thursday 8 p.m. series on ABC since Mork & Mindy in 1979.

General information
Scoring and voting procedure
Starting in Season 3, the procedure for eliminating couples changed. Previously, only the overall ranking between competitors by the judges and the public was relevant. Starting in Season 3, the differential is now relevant.The scoring begins with the judges' marks. Each judge gives a 1 to 10 score, allowing for a perfect score of 30. With multiple performances, the scores would all be added at the end of the program. The scores for all competitors are added together and each contestant's "judge share" is determined by dividing their score by the sum of all the scores combined and recorded as a percentage. This percentage is then added to the percentage of North American votes received by each contestant. The bottom two couples are identified in the results show, and the couple with the lowest combined total is eliminated.[7]
Public voting is conducted via a toll-free number, the ABC web site, and, most recently, text messages. Voters can place up to the number of couples performing that night per medium during and immediately after each performance show.
Viewer voting appears to have been primarily based upon the popularity of the celebrity rather than their dancing ability especially in the early episodes. The three judges also seem to tailor their marks to "stack the deck" against really poor performers or even the playing field to help the viewers to decide who wins the session.
There is no evidence of collusion between the judges and producers to "stack the deck" for the less popular celebrities. However, like many of these shows, conspiracy theories abound especially when one's favorite contestant doesn't fare as well as they might have hoped. Stacking the deck would be in clear violation of FCC rules and regulations that govern competitive television programs.
Withdrawals
Sara Evans in the third season was the first celebrity to withdraw from the competition. She cited her divorce as the reason for leaving the competition. As a result, her professional partner, Tony Dovolani also became the first professional dancer to withdraw from the competition.Another withdrawal occurred during the run-up to Season 4, on February 28 when Vincent Pastore withdrew from the competition after only one week of training. Pastore said he did not realize how much work was needed during a ten-week period, and that he was not up to the physical demands of the show. He was replaced on March 2 by actor John Ratzenburger who was partnered with Edyta Sliwinska.[8]
Len and Bruno
During the third and fifth seasons Judges Len Goodman and Bruno Tonioli were filming both Dancing With The Stars and its UK counterpart Strictly Come Dancing simultaneously, and had to fly across the Atlantic twice a week for almost the entire season.DVD
A DVD titled Dancing With The Stars: Cardio Dance was released on April 3, 2007 featuring Kym Johnson, Maksim Chmerkovskiy and Ashly DelGrosso. The program contains cardiovascular workouts adapted from Cha-cha, paso doble, samba (ballroom), and jive (dance) dance routines.See also
