Dancing With the Stars 2020 ushered in big changes to the long-running series. Hosts Tom Bergeron and Erin Andrews are no longer part of the show, replaced by Tyra Banks. And there's a new, but familiar face at the judges' table: Derek Hough will take the spot of Len Goodman, who is unable to travel from the UK due to COVID-19 restrictions.
Speaking of restrictions, this season of DWTS was looked very different this edition. There's no audience, backup dancers and band. The judges table is wider, so that they can practice social distancing from each other and from the dancers.
All of the contestants and pros have been tested multiple times a week. Each couple formed a "pod" and did not come into contact with the other couples. Even the pros who are married to each other had to remain separate.
Here's everything you need to know to watch Dancing With the Stars 2020 finale online.
