Anyone watching the premiere tonight?

I've never watched this show before but may give it a try this season. Have seen news that Melissa from the Bachelor is going to be on it due to an injury from another contestant that had to back out. Gee, I hope this wasn't Molly's favorite show before...

Yes, I'm going to be watching tonight. I guess it's Jewel that had to drop out because I heard she had an injury. This is the only program (the other one being THE CLOSER) that Mom will watch with me!

I love this show! I have watched it every year except the very first
I heard Mary O'dell had to drop out to and that Julianne is going to be partnered with her boyfriend?

It's Nancy O'Dell

Here is what they are saying:

Melissa Rycroft may not be engaged to 'The Bachelor' star Jason Mesnick, but at least she gets to continue her 15 minutes of fame.
Sources tell PEOPLE that the 'Bachelor' finalist, who was proposed to and then dumped on national TV, will take Nancy O'Dell's spot on 'Dancing With the Stars.'
O'Dell, along with Jewel, pulled out of the ballroom competition due to injuries. Jewel is expected to be replaced by Holly Madison, Hugh Hefner's ex-girlfriend and 'Girls Next Door' star

Dedicated fan here!

Helen has posted what I have heard (Cameron Mathison did a preview for GMA this morning). There are also two new pros - Chelsie Hightower and Dmitry Chaplin. Both are also former contestants from "So You Think You Can Dance" just like Lacey Schwimmer.

Most importantly, Maksim's fans hope Denise Richards can dance so we can watch him all season.

Jewel and Ty Murray live in my town. Can't believe she broke BOTH of her legs! I may watch just to see how her hubby does.

I'm going to be watching some of it. It was a long day today, so I'll be going to bed early. And there's so much to tape on Monday nights, between my fiance and me, that I don't have space to tape it on the TV or computer. We watch a lot of TV

OMG!! That is awesome!! I love So You Think You Can Dance!! it is great that they are showing off the talents of these 2. Dmitry has choreographed a few routines for SYTYCD and they were pretty steamy!

I thought the show was great. Melissa did a great job. I think some of it is due to her cheerleading and ballet background. I wasn't big on Lawrence, Ty, or that Apple computer guy. I enjoyed watching Steve-O. I thought that Shawn was good, too. Its going to be a good season.

I watched!! This is the second season I've watched and so far looks good!!

I really enjoyed Shawn Johnson's performance. I was wondering if her gymnastic background and age would help or hinder her. I think she did a really great job! Belinda Carslile (sp?) confirmed what I'd wondered in the past; spinning around like that can make you nauseous! I think it's cute that Julianne Hough is dancing with her boyfriend. It should be interesting to watch them try to work together as the weeks progress. Jewel's husband (can't remember his name off the top of my head) was one I was waiting to see too! It's definitely a different world from bull riding!

I couldn't stand the apple guy. The way he was acting yuhh like a jester almost and I was like omg please be a tiny bit more serious...
I loved the cowboy though, i forgot his name. He was clumsy but cute and their entire performance was so much fun!

I had no idea it was on! Does it come on again tomorrow night? Usually it goes a few days.
