In June 2005, ABC launched the U.S. version of the U.K. series Strictly Come Dancing<\/em>. Tom Bergeron<\/strong><\/a> served as the host of Dancing With the Stars<\/em><\/a>, with Lisa Canning<\/strong> as his cohost in season 1. Samantha Harris<\/strong> replaced Canning in season 2 for eight seasons. In season 10, Brooke Burke<\/strong><\/a> (who won season 7) took over as cohost until season 18, when Erin Andrews<\/strong><\/a> (who competed in season 10) took over.<\/p>\n

Andrews and Bergeron hosted together until season 29 when they were replaced by Tyra Banks<\/strong><\/a>.<\/p>\n

\u201cAs we embark on a new creative direction, he departs the show with our sincerest thanks and gratitude for his trademark wit and charm that helped make this show a success,\u201d ABC and BBC said in a statement at the time. \u201cErin will also not be returning, and we appreciate all that she brought to the ballroom. Fans have been rooting for her since she originally competed as a contestant back in 2010, and her signature sense of humor has become a hallmark of the show.\u201d<\/p>\n

Ahead of season 31, Alfonso Ribeiro was announced as a cohost for the model.<\/p>\n

Each season, a celebrity is partnered with a professional dancer. In season 12, the ABC reality series introduced the troupe, consisting of professional dancers who danced between numbers but were not paired with celebs.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Peta Murgatroyd<\/a>, Brandon Armstrong, Lindsay Arnold<\/a>, Alan Bersten<\/a>, Sharna Burgess<\/a>, Witney Carson<\/a>, Artem Chigvintsev<\/a>, Sasha Farber<\/a>, Jenna Johnson<\/a>, Keo Motsepe, Gleb Savchenko <\/strong>and Emma Slater<\/strong><\/a> all began as members of the troupe before joining the main cast of pros.<\/p>\n

Additionally, Carrie Ann Inaba<\/strong><\/a>, Bruno Tonioli<\/strong><\/a> and Len Goodman<\/strong><\/a> have served as judges since the series\u2019 debut, with pro dancer Julianne Hough<\/strong><\/a> briefly joining the table for seasons 19-21, then again for seasons 23 and 24. During season 29, Goodman was also replaced, since he was unable to travel to L.A. due to the coronavirus pandemic. Former pro Derek Hough<\/strong><\/a> became the third judge.<\/p>\n

Many former contestants or members of the dance community have also joined as a guest host for an episode through the years, including Paula Abdul<\/a>, Nick Carter<\/a>, Cher<\/a>, Maksim Chmerkovskiy<\/a>, Jessie J<\/a>, Rashad Jennings, Baz Luhrmann, Ricky Martin<\/a>, Idina Menzel<\/a>, Abby Lee Miller<\/a>, Mandy Moore <\/a><\/strong>and Olivia Newton-John<\/a>.<\/p>\n

The hit show launched a spinoff in 2018, Dancing with the Stars: Juniors<\/em>. Val Chmerkovskiy<\/a>\u00a0<\/strong>and Adam Rippon<\/strong><\/a> judged the competition and the cast was made up of celebrity kids, including Tripp Palin,<\/strong> Alana \u201cHoney Boo Boo\u201d Thompson<\/strong><\/a> and Mackenzie Ziegler<\/strong><\/a>. The show was canceled after one season.<\/p>\n
