Dancing With the Stars co-host Erin Andrews is very excited to have Julianne Hough signing on as a fourth judge for the upcoming 19th season of the reality series.

Derek Hough Enjoys 'Banter' With DWTS Judges Amid Talk Of Sister Julianne Returning

Amid the news that Hough would be joining Carrie Ann Inaba, Len Goodman and Bruno Tonioli on the judging panel this fall, Andrews made note of Hough coming on during her season this spring to guest judge and how nice it is to have her back again.

"I loved having Julianne. She came on the season when I was on, and she was great," she told FOX411 recently. "The Houghs really put DWTS on the map. Derek [Hough]'s amazing. Julianne is a sick dancer. Any way that they can make the show better and more exciting for the fans is amazing."

Cheryl Burke Almost 'Sat Out' of DWTS This Coming Season

Andrews first began co-hosting in Season 18 of Dancing With the Stars, a.k.a. the Spring 2014 season. She has received polarizing reviews from the Dancing With the Stars fanbase, but she has been confirmed to be returning to co-host again this fall.

Meanwhile, Julianne has received her own polarizing reaction from the fan base after being very vocal and honest about Mark Ballas during her guest judging stint in Season 17. At the time, she told Ballas' partner Christina Milian that you have to fight to be seen during any dance with him, suggesting that he shows off too much in his dances.

Dancing With the Stars Season 19 begins Monday, Sept. 15 at 8 p.m. ET/PT on ABC.
