'Dancing With the Stars' 2014: Len Goodman Likely To 'Miss A Few Shows' In Season 19, Will Probably Be Back [VIDEO]
Dancing With the Stars pro Cheryl Burke recently spilled some details on judge Len Goodman and how often he will be appearing in the upcoming 19th season of the ABC series.

Burke spoke with the New York Daily News this week and revealed that Goodman would likely be missing some episodes next season due to his traveling.
"I know that he is probably going to be missing a few shows next season because of the traveling back and forth," Burke said.

Goodman missed a few shows in Season 17 as well but he appeared in every episode of the most recently concluded 18th season. He led many to believe that he may be retiring from Dancing With the Stars during the Season 18 finale, though he has not confirmed or denied anything since.
However, based on Burke's comments, it seems like he will indeed be back for at least most weeks of Season 19.
"I get it," Burke joked about Goodman taking weeks off, "especially when you are 120 years old, it just sucks."
There have not been any major announcements about either Goodman, Bruno Tonioli or Carrie Ann Inaba leaving the show in Season 19, indicating that they are on for another round. This will make them one of the longest running judging panels in reality TV history, having been with the show since the very first season.
Dancing With the Stars Season 19 is set to premiere Monday, Sept. 15 at 8 p.m. ET/PT on ABC. The network is also planning a separate results show for the first two weeks of competition, to air on Tuesday.
