Dancing with the Stars Season 2 champ Drew Lachey is staying in step, having signed on to host ABC's new midseason dance-off Dance War: Bruno vs. Carrie Ann. The show, to air this winter for a half-dozen episodes, has DWTS judges Toniolo and Inaba forming rival performance troupes that will face off in weekly song and dance battles. I'm rooting for the Jets, though I hear the Sharks could upset.

Previously, the competition was called "Strategic Dance Occupation," but then Congress decided they weren't kidding any one.
 
Yes, this is exactly the same as Dance X. Only substituting Carrie Ann for Arlene. I know Bruno's team won that comp. I wonder how Carrie's team will do against his.
 
Yeah I don't know.... I checked out the Dance X website... I'm all about cashing in on the dance wave... but this seems to be pushing the envelope.

Yes - I didn't watch Dance X, and from a brief look at the viewing figures, they went down steadily as the series progressed, from about 5 million to under 3 million - to put that in context, good figures in that slot would be around 7+ million.

I'm glad that dance is getting exposure, of course. But it seems to be all spin-offs from one successful format, and there's only so much milk one can get from a cow.
