Dancing with the Stars: The Next Pro: Season One Ratings – canceled + renewed TV shows, ratings

Dancing with the Stars has been one of ABC’s most-popular shows for years so, it’s to be expected that the network would want to try another spin-off (a junior version was cancelled after one season in 2018). Will the new Dancing with the Stars: The Next Pro become a summer staple? Will it be cancelled or renewed for season two? Stay tuned.

A competition spin-off series, Dancing with the Stars: The Next Pro is hosted by wildlife conservationist and Dancing with the Stars Mirrorball Champion Robert Irwin. During the season, 12 exceptional up-and-coming dancers move into a house and compete in a grueling audition process, all vying for a coveted spot as a pro dancer on season 35 of Dancing with the Stars. Three-time Mirrorball champion Mark Ballas and his mother, Shirley Ballas, aka “The Queen of Latin” serve as judges. They’re joined by a series of rotating mentors/guest judges from DWTS.
