More On The New Dancing With The Stars Set Changes
As we reported to you earlier in a Louis Van Amstel post, there will be a new set for the new season of Dancing With The Stars. Entertainment Weekly is reporting more details on it from Executive Producer Conrad Green….
What fresh and sparkly change does Executive Producer Conrad Green have in store for us?
Why, it’s a new stage!Yes, ballroom dancing fans, the next season of DWTS will feature a fancy new amphitheater-style set for its next round of amateurs. There will be another level of seats for all those crazy folks who wait in line outside of CBS Television City in Los Angeles to attend a taping, and a more prominent spot for the orchestra and the enthusiastic chimes lady. The staircases will even move about the slick stage, though we do hope the weekly back and forth doesn’t trigger any more Kirstie Alley-style spills.
Sounds cool. Bring the new set on…that is if it’s not dangerous in some way to the dancers?
Special thanks to Zach for making sure we had this link!!xx
“First, the good news. With his DWTS partner Sharna Burgess by his...
I might be in the minority, but I am not sure right now what I think of these changes…. I think I am always very hesitant when they change stuff around, so until I see them for a few weeks and get a “feel” for them, and decide whether or not I like them…
Until then, I’m ready to say that I don’t like the changes……….
I’m with you Lori. The new set doesn’t really sound bad to me, but the rest of these changes that are being vaguely hinted at make me nervous. I don’t want the show to try to hard to get better, because I think it’ll just be worse. Haha, that’s a horrible attitude towards change though. I suppose we shall see.
**too hard
Sorry, that probably didn’t really warrant a second comment but I have OCD about stuff like that.
Long time no post! I got an email today inviting me to a taping on Sunday for a special DWTS “Ballroom Battle”. I guess it’s going to be Tony, Louis, Karina, Mark, Cheryl, and Lacey – I know, most of y’all’s least favorite lol – and some partners. It’s in LA though, and I’m in Chicago with not enough notice, WAAAAH. Lame!!!!! I wonder if the new stage is already up and running and I’d be able to get a glimpse of it.
Actually that must be a figment of your imagination coz I like all of them just fine.
Anyhoo, I guess the segment is taped and it won’t interfere with the show.
Fig, welcome back. We missed you! You should try to get a last minute flight if you can. Sometimes you can really good deals.
Man, I hope the stage doesn’t suck. I am still butt hurt over the loss of the red room, so I hope the new one is good!
I remember how awful the new SYTYCD stage was last year. Hopefully it doesn’t turn out that bad.
Personally, I would like to see the raised circular stage from season 11 again. That was awesome. The producers are usually “on target” when it to comes to stage props and productions, so I’m looking forward to these changes.
I’m also wary of this set change. Personally, I think they have made too many changes lately, and not all of them have been good (such as the WTA dance). I wish they would stick to the adage, if it ain’t broken, don’t fix it!
