Description: Tom Bergeron is making a surprise return to Dancing with the Stars — not as host, but as a guest judge for the show’s 20th-anniversary special on November 11, 2025. After stepping down in 2020 amid behind-the-scenes tensions and a bitter exit that included his firing over the controversial casting of Sean Spicer, Bergeron had vowed never to return. But now, thanks to new showrunner Conrad Green offering him an olive branch, he’s back — this time for a nostalgic one-off appearance. The episode dives into his rocky departure, his disillusionment with the show’s direction, and how a heartfelt gesture from Green helped heal old wounds.
