Limp Bizkit’s drummer is putting down his sticks and putting on his dancing shoes for CBS’s new series Come Dance with Me. The first season of the family dance competition series also features a social worker, a doctor, and a preschool teacher, each partnering up with their kids to compete for a $100,000 grand prize.
Songwriter Philip Lawrence will host the competition and dancer/actor Jenna Dewan, dancer Dexter Mayfield, and hip hop choreographer Tricia Miranda are on board as season one judges. The series kicks off on Friday, April 15, 2022 at 8pm ET/PT.
Series creators Chris O’Donnell and LL Cool J executive produce along with Jeff Thacker, Nick Florez, RJ Durell, and 3 Ball Productions’ Reinout Oerlemans, Ross Weintraub and Jeff Altrock.
Per CBS: “Throughout the season, the teams will learn different dance routines, from hip hop and ballroom to contemporary and theatrical, among others, and will tackle a fierce new performance each week in hopes of earning top scores from the judges and continuing in the competition. At the end of every episode, the two lowest-scoring teams will battle each other in a freestyle dance-off, as the judges determine which team will be eliminated and which will advance.”
