VIDEO: Len Goodman Announces His Return to DANCING WITH THE STARS

On last night's DANCING WITH THE STARS, judge Len Goodman had some exciting news for fans of the show - he will be returning to lead the judge's panel for Season 22, premiering in March, 2016. Watch the announcement below!

Said Goodman, "Greetings, everyone. Now I've been watching the show from the UK, and I must say everyone has been doing a fantastic job." He continued, "Now you finalists, I want you to give it your all in these last dances. As for the pros, I've got a mention for you as well. Listen up: Len is coming back next season. And I don't want any of your nonsense."

The 71-year-old long-time judge took a break for the 21st season of the ABC dance competition due to conflicts in his schedule. Goodman served as judge on the British counterpart of DWTS, titled "Strictly Come Dancing."

This most current season of the show featured guest judges Alfonso Ribeiro, Maksim Chmerkovskiy, and Olivia Newton-John.
