EXCLUSIVE: NBC will no longer be Dancing with Myself.
The network has canceled the dancing competition, which starred Nick Jonas, Liza Koshy and Shakira, after one season.

Gameshow Password, which was hosted by Keke Palmer and exec produced by Jimmy Fallon, hasn’t been officially renewed but that is more of a result of Palmer recently giving birth after a promising first season.
Dancing With Myself had some early issues after Shaquille O’Neal, who was original set as one of the judges, pulled out to be replaced by Jonas, as well as some issues with the elaborate stage design that pushed rehearsals for the show.

As each round of the competition progresses, the creators on the judging panel provide instant feedback and choose their favorites to advance, along with the audience picks. But
