Tom Bergeron Calls DWTS Bringing Back Producer 'Best Decision'
Tom Bergeron is thrilled to hear that Dancing With The Stars is bringing back producer Conrad Green, as he calls it their best decision. Green was an executive producer on the show from 2005, when the series premiered, through 2013, when he exited the show. When the producer left, he was replaced by Rob Wade, who stayed until 2017, when Andrew Llinares took over the producer role. Unfortunately, Llinares was the producer who clashed with Tom leading to his firing in 2019. Rumors first spread in early June that Green was in talks to return to the show. Tom immediately expressed his excitement on Twitter about the producer's potential DWTS return.
After Tom's departure, due to disagreements with the show's choice to cast Former White House Press Secretary Sean Spicer on the show, former America's Next Top Model host Tyra Banks took over. While Tyra brought her big personality and high energy each week, fans had mixed reactions to Tyra's behavior on DWTS. While some cast from the show praised Tyra, like former contestant Cody Rigsby and judge Carrie Ann Inaba, fans spent most of season 30 complaining about her. DWTS fans felt Tyra was too over the top and, on multiple occasions, was disrespectful towards contestants. Some of Tyra's biggest criticism was that she talked over contestants, especially during elimination, and she embarrassed gymnast Suni Lee on an episode when she was dealing with an illness and had to run off stage after her performance.
