Dang! They are taking the fun out of us trying to find dance information for next week. Oh well, read on for all the details. From WDTV….

THE 12 CELEBRITY AND PRO-DANCER COUPLES COMPETE ANOTHER WEEK ON ABC’S ‘DANCING WITH THE STARS’ FOR THE COVETED MIRRORBALL TROPHY, MONDAY, SEPT. 23

Big Format Change in Voting to Be Revealed; First Elimination for the 2019 Season

“First Elimination” – The 12 celebrity and pro-dancer couples compete a second week with the first elimination of the 2019 season, live, MONDAY, SEPT. 23 (8:00-10:00 p.m. EDT), on ABC. (TV-PG, L) Episodes can also be viewed the next day on ABC.com, the ABC app and Hulu.

Vying for America’s vote, each couple will dance to a style they have not yet danced to this season. Some of the songs featured in the season’s second episode will include Taylor Swift’s “Lover,” Demi Lovato’s “Confident,” Frank Sinatra’s “Fly Me to the Moon,” The Goo Goo Dolls’ “Iris,” Aretha Franklin’s “Think” and Earth, Wind & Fire’s “September,” among others. The show opens with a comedic cold open featuring celebrity contestant Ray Lewis giving one of his infamous locker room pep talks to his fellow celebrities in advance of the first elimination.

For the show’s second broadcast, scores from the judges from week one will carry over and be combined with judges’ scores from week two, which also marks the first weekly live-viewing audience vote of the season (via abc.com, the ABC app and SMS/text). The live votes will occur each week only during the live broadcast in the EDT/CDT time zones (but fans in all U.S. time zones may vote within that window).

Moving forward with each subsequent Monday night, the live vote combined with the judges’ scores will be tabulated in real time, with the bottom two revealed during the broadcast. And for the first time in “DWTS” history, a big format change in voting will change everything and will be revealed during the broadcast.

•Country artist Lauren Alaina and Gleb Savchenko will dance the Cha Cha
