Mackenzie Ziegler had a new attitude during the season finale of “Dancing with the Stars: Juniors.” The 14-year-old singer and “Dance Moms” alum broke out of her shell during the Semi-Finals last week when she performed a fierce paso doble. She carried that momentum into the Finals episode with a freestyle that brought hip-hop flair to the night’s Christmas celebration. Watch her performance above.
Ziegler and her pro partner Sage Rosen danced to “Drummer Boy” as re-imagined by Justin Bieber and Busta Rhymes. But it felt less like “Little Drummer Boy” and more like “Little Drumline” when Ziegler and Rosen faced off in a mini dance battle right in the middle of their routine. I’ve been ambivalent about Ziegler all season since she’s pretty much a professional dancer in her own right, but I have to give credit where credit is due: this might have been my favorite individual performance from her,...

There was a lot on the docket for the one-hour season finale of “Dancing with the Stars: Juniors.” There were four finalists since no one was eliminated during the Semi-Finals, and they all performed two routines on the final night of the competition: a repeat of their favorite dance of the season (this time joined by their adult mentors) and then a holiday-themed freestyle. Then the judges’ scores and studio audience votes from both the Semi-Finals and the Finals were combined to pick a winner. So was it Miles Brown, Sky Brown, Ariana Greenblatt or Mackenzie Ziegler?

Christmas came a little early to the Dancing With the Stars: Juniors ballroom on Sunday night, and one duo walked away with the best gift of all: the Mirrorball trophy. (Sorry, my bad — the Mirror Star trophy. Bobby Bones has custody of the Mirrorball proper for the foreseeable future.)
After 10 weeks of truly impressive competition, four finalists — Mackenzie Ziegler, Ariana Greenblatt, Miles Brown and Sky Brown — took the stage for two last performances on Sunday, after learning in last week’s semifinals that no one would be sent home and they would all get a chance to compete in the finale.

As suspected, there was no elimination on the “Dancing with the Stars: Juniors” semifinal, so the final four will hit the dance floor one last time in Sunday’s finale. The pairs will perform two numbers: a reprise of their favorite dance of the season — this time featuring their respective mentors — and a holiday-themed freestyle. So again, these young’uns don’t have the pressure of performing two completely individual routines.
The episode is only one-hour long, so there’s a lot to pack in — all of the eliminated couples will be back for a group number — before we even get to the winner. The winner will be determined by judges’ scores and the studio audience vote. And honestly, whoever wins would give Bobby Bones a run for for his money.

It was the beginning of the end for “Dancing with the Stars: Juniors”on Sunday night, December 2. The final four contestants performed two routines during the semi-finals. So who made the best impression going into the season finale, and who (if anyone) was sent home? Find out below in our live blog with all the minute-by-minute updates as they happen.
The remaining four celebs and their pro partners began the night with the usual individual dances. “Avengers” actress Ariana Greenblatt and pro partner Artyon Celestine took on a foxtrot. Dancer and singer Mackenzie Ziegler and her partner Sage Rosen went into battle with a paso doble. Skateboarder Sky Brown and Jt Church treated us to an Argentine tango. And “Black-ish” star Miles Brown and Rylee Arnold performed a cha cha.

The “Dancing with the Stars: Juniors” semifinal will do something the mothership series has never done before: dance duos. The remaining four couples will perform individual routines before pairing up for said duos in lieu of a second individual routine. So essentially the dance duos are “Dancing”‘s trademark team dances, just with two couples. It’s probably easier on the kiddies now than if they had done it with the typical four couples per team.
As for the individual routines, the four pairs will perform a foxtrot, paso doble, cha-cha or Argentine tango. For what it’s worth, ABC made no mention of an elimination at the end of Sunday’s episode as it usually does in its weekly press releases, so do with that what you will.

Who needs “Dance Moms” when you’ve got Gleb Savchenko? The “Dancing with the Stars” pro joined the first-season cast of juniors as a mentor to contestant Mackenzie Ziegler and her pro partner Sage Rosen. Ziegler is the oldest contestant of the season at age 14 and arguably the most experienced (she spent several years on the aforementioned “Dance Moms” reality show), but the clip package on Time Machine Night showed Savchenko as more of a taskmaster than usual, highlighting his strict perfectionism. Did his approach get the most out of Ziegler, or was it not his tempo? Watch her routine above.
Ziegler has training in contemporary and jazz styles. She already got to perform a contemporary routine on the show, and as luck would have it this week she got a jazz number. She went back in time to the 1980s for a dance that celebrated that decade’s kitsch,...

Episode seven of “Dancing with the Stars: Juniors” was a night for some wibbly-wobbly dancey-wancey stuff. That’s right, it was time for time travel. On Time Machine Night, the remaining five child contestants performed routines mostly to celebrate an era before any of them were born: the 20th century — yeah, we feel old too. So who had the best time, and who just wasted their time? Follow along with our live blog below for all the minute-by-minute developments as they happen.
The adult version of “DWTS” ended its season on November 19 with a, shall we say, controversial ending, but going into “Juniors” on November 25 there were still five celebs in the running, all of whom actually have higher judges’ scores than the adult winner Bobby Bones did. “Black-ish” star Miles Brown was the judges’ favorite going into Time Machine Night based on his season-long scores, but still hadn’t...

“Dancing with the Stars: Juniors” is going to turn back time and go back to the future on Sunday. For Time Machine Night, the top five couples will perform a routine inspired by a bygone era or a time period that has yet to happen. The farthest back they’re going is the ’20s, aka almost 100 years before some of these kiddies were born. They’ll also cover the ’40s and ’50s, but will then skip all the way the ’80s (so rude to the Swingin’ 60s and disco ’70s).
The couples will perform a quickstep, jazz, paso doble, jive or Charleston. (Is it just us or does “Dancing” nearly always make the futuristic dance a paso?) One couple will be eliminated at the end of the show.

Our readers have had mixed feelings about Mackenzie Ziegler on “Dancing with the Stars: Juniors.” She’s one of the most technically gifted celebrity contestants, but a lot of that is due to the fact that her primary claim to fame is dancing. She rose to prominence on “Dance Moms” with her big sister Maddie Ziegler. Mackenzie actually dedicated her performance on Giving Thanks Night to her older sib, and then Maddie even came out midway through the performance to make it a surprise trio dance. But the extent to which Mackenzie was able to keep up with her professional-dancer sis highlighted that Mackenzie is more or less a professional herself. Watch her samba above.
That said, Giving Thanks Night did deal her a notoriously difficult dance style, a samba, which is a far cry from the contemporary and jazz styles she’s trained in. And her execution was damn...

While “Dancing with the Stars” will reach its season finale on Monday, “Dancing with the Stars: Juniors” is still in the thick of its season. Sunday’s episode is just Week 6 of a nine-week season, and since it’s also Thanksgiving next Thursday, you can bet your two left feet that “Juniors” is doing a “Giving Thanks” theme. Unclear if anyone will be dressed as a turkey, but we might get one or two dances that are complete turkeys.
The top six will dedicate their routines — either a jazz, salsa, samba or foxtrot — to those people who’ve had an impact on their lives. We’re guessing Mandla Morris‘ is going to be his dad Stevie Wonder since the singer is performing “Isn’t She Lovely” during his son’s dance.
One couple will be eliminated at the end of Sunday’s show.

“Dancing with the Stars: Juniors” took a week off while Disney-owned ABC celebrated Mickey Mouse’s 90th birthday on November 4, but the kids were back on November 11 for their fifth week of competition. And this time the kids took the reins. For Juniors Choice Night the contestants picked their own music, some of which had special emotional significance to the competitors. So who gave the best performances, and who was eliminated at the end of the night? Find out below in our live blog with all the minute-by-minute developments as they happen.

The kids are calling the shots on Week 5 of “Dancing with the Stars: Juniors.” Sort of. They’re not choreographing anything, but they do get to pick the song they will dance to for Juniors Choice. And by that, we mean they get to pick a song that the show can clear. Naturally, Mackenzie Ziegler chose one of her own tunes. As for everyone else, well, don’t be expecting many classic songs here.
The remaining seven couples will perform a Charleston, jazz, cha cha or samba, and one couple will be eliminated at the end of the show.
Reminder: This episode will air on Sunday, Nov. 11 at 8/7c on ABC. The show is off on Sunday, Nov. 4 for “Mickey’s 90th Spectacular.”

In addition, the episode, which was filmed over the summer, will open with a group number featuring all eight couples and choreographed by judge Mandy Moore. One team will be eliminated at the end of the hour.

Disney Night has become a tradition on “Dancing with the Stars,” but this season it has expanded to a two-night affair. The top nine child celebrities performed Disney-inspired routines on “DWTS: Juniors” on Sunday night, and the grownups will do the same in Monday’s episode of the original series. Disney is known for its family films, which makes it a perfect fit for “Juniors.” So how did the kids do? Find out below in our live blog with all the minute-by-minute developments as they happen.
The first two weeks of the competition quickly cut the roster from 12 contestants to 9. Tripp Johnston and Addison Osta Smith had the lowest judges’ scores in week one and were both eliminated after the studio audience votes were factored in. But week two ended in a surprise: “General Hospital” actor Hudson West got the boot even though he had one of the night’s higher scores.

In Week 2 of the ABC series, the Mirrorball hopefuls performed to songs that were released in the years they were born — years that range from the very recent 2003 to the very very recent 2008. I bet you didn’t know you’d end your weekend by feeling old, huh?

Those results were half-determined by the votes of the studio audience, but Smith and Johnston were also the lowest scorers on the judges’ leaderboard, so fans in the stands may have been influenced by the input of panelists Mandy Moore, Val Chmerkovskiy and Adam Rippon.

You know how everyone makes fun of the younger “Dancing with the Stars” contestants for picking a year in, like, the last seven years — including the current year — for Most Memorable Year because they haven’t lived yet? Well, neither have the kiddies on “Dancing with the Stars: Juniors.”
Oh, don’t worry, they’re not doing Most Memorable Year there, which would’ve been Lol, but they are doing Songs From the Year I Was Born in Week 2. So that’s just music from this century. Not just that, but the remaining 10 contestants range from 9 years old (Spelling Bee champ Akash Vukoti) to 14 years old (Mackenzie Ziegler), so we’re getting tunes from a five-year span from 2004 to 2009. Some of these kids weren’t even alive for their rivals’ songs! We are old; they are not. Sigh.

Here are five words guaranteed to strike fear in the heart of any reality competition fan: “We’re doing a kids’ version!”
ABC on Sunday debuted Dancing With the Stars: Juniors, an offshoot of its long-running mothership series that features pint-sized celebrities (or the pint-sized sons and daughters of celebrities). But even though the word “junior” typically elicits groans when attached to any show title, the miniature version of DWTS served up even more energy and unbridled joy than the all-adults iteration — and that’s really saying something.

This special version of “DWTS” will run for a full 10 weeks just like the main show. However, the rest of the episodes will only be an hour long and all of them will be pre-taped.
Among those talented tykes taking to the dance floor are “black-ish” scene stealer Miles Brown; reality TV star Honey Boo Boo (her real name is Alana Thompson); and Ariana Greenblatt of the Disney TV hit “Stuck In The Middle.”
