Starting a thread for the upcoming season. I've moved some posts relating to the new season over here as well. :-)

A bit of interesting news- the original U.K. Version will be available to watch legally in the US for the first time this fall...

Yay Wilsonatmd. Glad I already have BritBox. Granted I haven't watched much on it yet, but this will give me a reason to use the service.

A little early, but we have our first two rumored names:

Drew Scott: one of the stars of the HGTV series Property Brothers

Nikki Bella: WWE superstar (though she's on a wrestling hiatus), also on the E! shows Total Divas and Total Bellas (in fact, one of the storylines on Total Divas last year was that she was offered DWTS, but turned it down because she was trying to come back from a wrestling injury- and I personally wouldn't be shocked if we hear a rumor that her sister Brie might be on as well- she's not wrestling either because she just had her first child)

Drew is engaged and so is Nikki Bella (to John Cena) so maybe they want to learn to dance before their weddings. The Bellas and John and Brie's hubby were on the Today Show this morning talking about Total Divas. No hint on DWTS but then again, it's on ABC.

Wasn't this season the season that they were going to have "juniors"-kid stars and kids of stars? If so, guess it didn't pan out.

Nooooooooooo!!! They did that on So You Think You Can Dance last summer, and we stopped watching. That's a terrible idea. Roteach, I hope you are kidding.

I thought that was what was reported at the end of last season and I thought it was a bad call. Would they have to have younger "pros" to dance with them. I am glad that I probably misheard.

I love the Bella twins. They would be fierce competitors.

ET reports that Cheryl Burke is returning as a pro this season. Link here. http://www.etonline.com/exclusive-cheryl-burke-returning-dancing-stars-shes-really-excited-source-says-85981

This article also lists the pros who are returning. Another season of Keo. Oh well. At least Val and Maks are back.

I was just checking the stars again. We get Keo and Mark but no Sasha. Upside to that is that he can do more choreo on So You Think You Can Dance.

I really wish Sharna would get rid of that "clown red" hair color and color her hair a loverly brunette.

Happy to see that Alan made it from the troupe to a pro. He's a sweetie.

Why in the world do they keep Keo?
I would love to see Vanessa and Nick!

I love Alan. He's a cutie. Keo sometimes gets on my last nerve.

Are there no African-American female ballroom dancers talented enough for DWTS? Over the years I've seen them as extra dancers but never as a competitor.

Well, I was just checking Instagram and the first official couple of the new season was announced. Drew Scott and Emma Slater. That's going to be a fun pairing.

I wonder if Keo keeps getting a shot because he's tall - I love Sasha but the dude is super short, which in a season where they have a lot of tall celebrities is definitely not an advantage.

Roxip, that could be true. I guess they have to match the heights of the dancers the best that they can. At least Sasha & Emma as well as Val have been doing some choreo on SYTYCD.

A few more rumored names..the official announcement is Wednesday morning..

-former NBA star Derek Fisher

-actor Frankie Muniz

-Barbara Cochran from Shark Tank

-violinist Lindsey Stirling

-ESPN reporter and former Paralympic champion Victoria Arlen (probably the feel-good story; at age 11, due to rare diseases she was in a vegetative state for four years, then had to relearn to speak, eat, and move; two years later, she won four medals at the 2012 Paralympics- then was hired by ESPN as a reporter, and last year after intensive therapy was able to walk after being in a wheelchair for many years...and she's only 22)
