Was this the best Dancing With the Stars Season Premiere night in history?! The judges seemed to think so, and unlike Chris Harrison on The Bachelor, they don't throw around superlatives like that every single episode of every season.
So you know Monday's Season 14 opener was at least pretty good, and with no one on the block tonight, the contestants were free to let loose, pressure-free!
Not to say we didn't learn who's in it to win it and whose cringe-inducing moves will likely make their stint on DWTS a short one, but all are safe this week! Let's get right to the biggest story, though: Jaleel White is no Steve Urkel.
His foxtrot with Kym Johnson closed the show, but DWTS saved the best dance for last apparently, as the former Family Matters star posted a 26! In Week One! Welsh opera singer Katherine Jenkins was elegant during her own foxtrot with Mark Ballas, also scoring a 26 and tying UJaleel for first place Monday.
Katherine and Mark will no doubt be hoping to recreate their previous success on DWTS when the show returns on Monday night.
The pair won rave reviews from the judges following their foxtrot, which judge Carrie Ann Inaba told them was the ‘best first dance on the first episode ever’.
But the couple are likely to face strong competition from fellow competitors including Maria Menounos, who is determined to move things up a gear this week with a sizzling Quickstep.
The Extra host, 33, looked in good spirits as she headed to a 'long rehearsal' with her professional partner Derek Hough yesterday.
And it appears Hough - who has won DWTS twice with Nicole Scherzinger and Jennifer Grey in recent years - has been putting her through her paces.
She wrote on Twitter: 'Quickstep is kicking my butt!!!!!!'
Menounos also uploaded a humorous video on her website, suggesting Hough is quite the demanding choreographer.
The Utah-native is seen sweaty and out-of-breath as he collapses on a seat, shouting: 'Water!'
