[Here](http://abc.go.com/primetime/dancing/)’s the lineup. Tucker Carlson and Jerry Springer – yikes – plus Vivica A. Fox (when did she add the “A”?), Harry Hamlin – you know Lisa Rinna’s gonna be in the audience every week …

Only a month away – the premiere is Tuesday, Sept. 12th.

**blissful sigh**

Hmmm. Is it too soon to set the VCR? I’m glad they brought Ashley Delgrosso back. She deserved better than Master P last season. As usual, I haven’t heard of most of contestants, although I do remember Emmitt Smith from his football playing days. The main downside I see is they’re keeping the second, hour-long results show.

I’m looking forward to watching it!
