Seriously? OMG! WTF?

Today is ABC’s TCA Summer Press Day, and they had a lot of news to share.

They started it off by announcing that Kevin Hart will be a Shark on Shark Tank. Does he have businesses that qualify him for the show? I guess we will find out like we did when Alex Rodriquez was a Shark.

Steve Harvey is going to be Judge Steve Harvey for 10-episodes in 2022. The judge, the jury, and the star of the series, Harvey, will welcome a variety of conflicts and characters to his courtroom – from small claims to big disputes and everything in between. Steve plays by his own rules, basing his courtroom on his own life experiences and some good old common sense.

The show is casting now, so if you got a case for him, then apply here.

Talking about casting, Dancing with the Stars announced their first two stars. They are Olympic Gold medalist Suni Lee and JoJo Siwa. The recently out teen millionaire will be the first contestant in 30 seasons to dance with a same-sex pro. We don’t know who it is, but I hope they get Julianne Hough to do it.

DWTS doesn’t need to name any more stars because Siwa is going to win. Between the fan base, the same-sex partner, and the fact that she was on Dance Moms and Abby’s Ultimate Dance Competition means she knows how to dance.

Finally, The Conners are going live for their season premiere on September 22nd, and you can appear on the show virtually as a long-lost relative.

As part of the storyline, a Conner family member will call each lucky sweepstakes winner for a live conversation regarding how they deal with some of the same life issues that the Conners navigate on a daily basis.

Want to be a Conner, then enter the sweepstakes here.

Back in April, Carrie Ann Inaba announced that she was taking a hiatus from The Talk to deal with her autoimmune health issues. Today, she gave an update on her status with the CBS talk show. She says that they mutually agreed to part ways.

I think we all knew this was coming. At least, she still has Dancing with the Stars.

She is the second host to leave this season. The first one, of course, being Sharon Osbourne.

With these departures, the remaining hosts are Sheryl Underwood, Amanda Kloots, Elaine Welteroth and new hire Jerry O’Connell.

There was a report recently that they knew that she wasn’t coming back and they were looking for a man to replace her. Who do you think would be a good choice?

Val and Maksim Chmerkovskiy have spent the last year just dancing for the wives in the bedroom. Therefore, they really want to dance for other people, so they are going on the road.

The brothers from Dancing with the Stars will spend July and August touring 19 cities in the United States.

And the best part is they promise to take it all off. At least, I am assuming they do because they called their tour Stripped Down. The only way I am paying to watch two men dance for me is if they are taking their clothes off.

They can keep it on for the camera, but they can take it when the cameras are off. Then I am in like Flynn. Probably not the best phrase to use in this circumstance.

A post shared by Val (@valentin)

Before Valentin Chmerkovskiy was dancing on Dancing with the Stars, he was doing it on Sally Jesse Raphael. How cute was the 11-year-old in that 1997 episode?

Here is what the dancer said about his television debut, “The energy been that. Never switched up. If you knew me then you know me now, just straighter teeth. Also Sally better chill with that highkey game she spitting at the kid. Damnnnn. This was my first ever TV appearance, and the best part was I got to take my moms with me. We went to Manhattan, got to eat snacks in the greenroom, ‘’mama we made it!” This video just brings me so much joy I had to share it with y’all. Moments like this could’ve ruined this kid, but he never got caught up. He just loved to dance and share his story. Still does.”

I have decided to take a leave of absence from @TheTalkCBS to focus on my health and well being. I appreciate the support from you and my family at The Talk and hope to be back soon! ❤️ pic.twitter.com/0RQck8TVBq

The Talk is not having a good 11th season. First, Eve announced that she was staying in London and not returning to the show. Then Sharon Osbourne “left” the show. Today, Carrie Ann Inaba announced that she is taking a break from the daytime talk show.

“I have decided to take a leave of absence from The Talk to focus on my health and well being. We all know health is the most precious gift we have. And I need to take care of mine,” she wrote. “I appreciate the love and support from all of you and from my family at The Talk. I hope to be back soon! Ready for action! 🙌❤🙏I’m sending you all my love. And I’ll update you on my progress…talk soon ❤😘”

The Dancing with the Stars judge suffers from autoimmune diseases and battled COVID-19. In recent weeks, she had been suffering from sharp pains. I hope she is better soon.

Between her and Osbourne’s absence, that means the only hosts that are left on the show are Sheryl Underwood, Amanda Kloots and Elaine Welteroth. The latter two have only been on the program for a few months. The show better hope Inaba is back soon or that ratings will be in the crapper.
