'Skating With the Stars' Coming This Fall to ABC

Another network already tried this idea, but ABC is going to give it another go.

ABC today announced premiere dates for the Dancing with the Stars ice skating spinoff Skating with the Stars.   Skating will slide into Dancing's Monday 8-9:30 PM slot following the conclusion of the current Dancing cycle.

Skating will premiere on November 22, airing twice behind Dancing on Mondays at 9 PM before moving to 8 PM on December 6.

Figure Skating is always a great draw on television with women.  If ABC gets celebs somewhat close to what they get for Dancing, and a good host like Tom Bergeron, this show has a chance.
