The new season for DWTS all stars will begin on Sept. 24.
The season will be produced by Conrad Green, who has said that the cast list "represents many different seasons," and should allow the show to "get back some of the best personalities" seen over the 14 seasons.
"We want the whole season to be a celebration of the people who have taken part," he has said.
It is expected that the standard will be very high, and judges are allegedly being "re-calibrated" so that all the scores do not just end up being 9's and 10's.
Palin has said, "The the press is going to talk about me no matter what, so I might as well have fun."
Host Tom Bergeron has said, "I had to be a bit more tentative with the stars; they were nervous, learning it, finding their way. But all these guys have done it, so I don't have to be as nice."
