'Dancing With The Stars' Renewed For 27th Season!

ABC is keeping Dancing With the Stars aruond for another season!

The reality competition show will return for a 27th season, JJJ can confirm, which will debut in the fall, after the all-athlete season coming this spring.

If you missed the news, DWTS also just got a new showrunner — Andrew Llinares.

“The challenge is to find a way to hold on to the key values of the show, while moving it forward while keeping current and fresh,” he told THR about his goals for the series.

“It’s definitely about evolution rather than revolution.”

He adds, “Story and emotion are absolutely key for me. With that in mind, I want us to find ways to make the stories on the show even more compelling and the emotional connection which the viewer has to the performances, even stronger. I also want us to come up with ideas that surprise and excite the viewers every week so that they keep coming back for more.”
