Dancing with the Stars' Season 10 Will Feature Fewer Competitors

Dancing with the Stars

When Dancing with the Stars' 10th season returns on March 22, there'll be fewer couples on the dance floor.

ABC entertainment president Steve McPherson said Tuesday that he likes airing two cycles of the show each year, but thought last season featured too many couples. He said Season 10 will be limited to 11 or 12 at the most.

Six reasons Dancing may have lost its step

This time around, the first elimination will take place after the second episode, and will be based on the judges' scores and votes from the public for the first two episodes.

The Season 10 cast has yet to be announced.
