"DWTS" Week 6 Recap: Nope, Derek Hough Didn't Propose on Live TV

Please hold for applause: We’re now roughly halfway through this season of “Dancing with the Stars,” mid-pandemic, without a single case of COVID-19.

"Dancing with the Stars" Week 1 Recap: Baskin and Better Than Ever

And just like that, we’re back in the ballroom for another season of “Dancing with the Stars.” While last night’s episode didn’t feel totally normal—with social-distancing measures in place, no “DWTS” troupe, and a glaring lack of a live audience—there’s something comforting about the fact that even amidst a global pandemic, “Dancing with the Stars” […]
