Launched by BBC Television UK, Dancing with the Stars is the reality show that has won not only Great Britain and the United States but many other countries around the globe since 2004. The competing pairs are made of a celebrity and a professional dancer that must teach his/her partner how to dance. The team prepare two dances they perform live every week. A panel of judges and the public appreciates the value of the performance that is reflected in the weekly score. The pair with the lowest score leaves the competition.

Dancing with the Stars had the highest audience level during the first and second seasons, and it was called the most-watched show since Who Wants to Be a Millionaire. From the third series onwards a moderation in the number of viewers was noticed as the show did not surpass the audience numbers of parallel programs, but it ranked almost the same with CBS’ Survivor: Panama, for example. All sorts of events shook the history of the show, there were several celebrity withdrawals like that of Sara Evans in the third season who started the legal separation from the her husband during the show.
