The actress had nothing bad to say about Banks, but she admitted that something was missing after Bergeron was replaced. The latter was a friend to Burke and an inspiration not only to her but to many of the fans, cast, and crew.
“This is no dig at Tyra … but honestly the heart of the show was gone,” she said when asked about what’s different with the show. “I can’t even say it better than that…” she said during an interview with Chris Harrison on The Most Dramatic Podcast Ever.

It’s not just about Bergeron hosting the show. What Burke misses the most is the fact that he did a lot of things behind the scenes. He hosted mid-season parties for the cast and crew. He interacted with everybody, even on Sundays during camera blocking, even though he wasn’t getting paid for it.
She believes that replacing Bergeron was like recasting Friends, which was not possible because the show will never be the same again.

During the conversation, Harrison also pointed out that Bergeron didn’t make the show about him when he was hosting it.
“It’s not about you, you are not the star, and that’s something that’s lost by a lot of hosts. Obviously, the ratings changed — you can see the numbers changed dramatically after he and Erin left…” he explained.

Put DWTS back on regular TV
I want tom B. back
I stopped watching DWTS when they replaced to Tom ith TB. I watched the beginning of the first program and turned it off immediately. I loved DWTS, but she was horrible! Why do. Tv programs mess up a good thing!
Yep, she said it. If this is coming from the insiders, then you know what the viewers are saying is true. There is a lot of money on the line for this show and it still has the potential to succeed. They have to lose Tyra (she is leaving, yay) and get back on regular network tv. If they can’t get Tom B back then get someone like him and not another show-off, narcissistic, This is my Show person.
if it wasn’t broke why did they fix it? put the originals back on we all loved Tom and Erin!
And they replace Tyra Banks with Julianne Hough????? Whose brother is one of the judges????? So everybody has to dance according to their decision?????? This show is on its last legs.
