I think Tom Bergeron would make a great host for Jeopardy! Sorry to see him leave Dancing with the Stars.

I agree with all those people that think they should’ve put Tyra banks in there. Tom Berenger and Erin Were great l of the show.

Tom Bergeron and Erin Andrews made the show. DWTS is not the same..why fix something that’s not broken?😟😟😥

Just watched Tyra on DWTS. Have watch this show every season but not watching this one. Like Tyra, but not on this show. Bring back Tom and Erin. But especially TOM. That’s when I will start watching again

I really think adding Tyra as the host was a bad move, she was the worst on AGT and not any better on DWTS all she cares about is what she looks like at least Tom was more about the people and not himself......losing Tom was a bad bad move he was DWTS!

ABC has turned into a black station. Talk about discriminating.....white lives matter too. Done with ABC.

No thanks.

Terrible idea 🤦‍♀️

I'll pass

Anybody would be better than Erin. Thank God she’s gone. Wishes really do come true.

She is also now an executive producer -translation she bought the job.

I watched Tyra on America’s Got Talent & was not impressed with her hosting abilities . Not a good move ABC!!!!

Wrong move ABC...Tom Bergeron made this show!! 😢

Disney Leadership so white no wonder they tryna hurry up and score few points. This what they do. Sad. How bout y’all add black leadership

I wonder why? didn't she host AGT.. and was replaced..

Seriously DancingABC replacing Tom_Bergeron the best host on tv ..1st they made the show political last season and made it unwatchable..now this? I watched every season from the 1st ( except last season) I was up to give it another chance but now I'm done...

2 whites out, one black in. Sounds about right in today's political environment

DisneyABCTV was alfonso_ribeiro not available? Also, could do without Erin Andrews, but Tom_Bergeron made the show what it is.

She SUCKS!!!!

Remember the live band that ABC threw under the bus? Remember how that went? 🤷‍♂️ Happened with other shows, as well! Crazy people!!

Bye Bye DancingABC. What a terrible move.

Won't be watching anymore, nothing against Tyra but loved tom and erin...why in the world change something that works

Now I’m gonna watch!!! tyrabanks 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾

Kool

Well I rarely watch the show as it is anymore but without Tom I definitely won’t be watching. He brought such comedic relief.

Oh no. I really don't like her. She has this kinda self important attitude. Meh

The shark has been jumped

Peace out

boooooooooo...no longer watching...Tom was the perfect host...Tyra is annoying...wonder if Tom and Erin were fired because they were WHITE...and they needed to add color to the show now...guess no white host is safe now...NEXT

No... just no! Terrible choice. She was awful on AGT.... and why replace Tom and Erin who were both completely great and very well liked? Must be some type of diversity move which is BS because in the process they put two very great people out of a job... how is that fair?!

She should be the cohost . Bring back Tom Berenger. Not sure I spelled it right.

👎

Tyra is NOT a good host, she is not funny, she doesn’t know when to shut up. She couldn’t hack it on America’s Got Talent now she is going to drive viewer ratings down. Alfonso would have been the logical choice, but corporate people are not logical.

pau_lpzlms

Wow. No one saw this coming. 🙄

ashmartinez_

I am supportive of BlackLivesMatter , but as a fan of Dancing with the Stars, career-wise, I prefer Tom Bergeron as host of DWTS

Sounds like some pandering...as soon as I saw the “going in a different direction” comment, I said to myself, “I know what that means.”

Count me out!! Fire the ONLY GOOD PART LEFT DWTS Bc Fired So Many Long Time Dancers We Grew To Love Like Family. Banks doesn't Hold a Candle to ErinAndrews or the Master Tom_Bergeron & she was caught saying some Nasty Words...Adding Her To The MagicDuo is an Idea=KeepTandE

I had Lebron and Lizzo on the money line.

Who didn't see this coming.....

People please be nice. Give her a chance. Don’t be rude and disrespectful. If I see one rude and disrespectful comments. I will report you

Bad choice

Not surprised.

Ugghhh here goes the whole show. Who’s bright idea was this? 😒

Tom and Erin were fired, keepthe headlines accurate. what a bummer!

DWTSInteract Well, that’s a pass for me! What does Tyra Banks know anything about dancing? Bring back Tom and you’ll be bringing back people who might just watch again. Otherwise this might be the last season. Goodbye DWTS for me!

Racist

I may not watch this year if they have any political contestants

Hmmmm...🤔

To create equality is not to fire someone for being of certain race & age is exactly what ABCTV has done rather to create new opportunities. Im Deaf, I wouldnt want a person fired so they can place me in their spot for being Deaf. I love & am a fan of Tyra, but reason is wrong.

Any reason why this was announced at midnight EST?

You got to be kidding me?! 🙄

Umm that’s random?

Really?

I adore Tyra but this is a terrible move. The only people who watch this show have been watching it for years and will not be happy about this.

Ugh

Can’t stand her. Ugh!

she's so nice!! congrats!!! tyrabanks

DWTSInteract

After 28 hugely successful seasons with Tom, who literally made the show what it is, DWTS is going woke.

Adios DWTS

They replaced one of the classiest guys ever with who Yeah, that oughta give them the refresh they think they need! 🙄🙄 Or NOT!

ABC is racist af! They fired a guy who's been there since Day 1 because, as ABCNetwork rep said, they wanted to add diversity. DancingABC and ABCNetwork are cancelled in my home.

Oh god no

Absolutely not. I do not support this message. But whatever..... Make that money Tyra.

Brutal. You lost me. I just can’t watch her.

Tom Bergeron, Erin Andrews Exit ‘Dancing With the Stars’After 28 seasons, Tom Bergeron will no longer be hosting “Dancing With the Stars.” Erin Andrews, his co-host since season 18, has also departed the show. Bergeron made the announcement … He should have left when the show was on top, like the season Sean Spicer did the samba. I thought Tom left after a close family member had passed? I honestly thought he previously took time away anyways....sorry to hear this though. I do think he was a great DWTS host but onward and upward as they say! Good luck in your future endeavors Tom! He lasted 27 more seasons than I did.
