history-making five couples dancing for the Len Goodman Mirrorball Trophy, fans expected the ABC show to get straight into the action.But the show completely skipped its usual glitzy professional dancer-performed opening number and instead played pre-recorded video packages of judges Carrie-Ann Inaba, Derek Hough, and Bruno Tonioli recapping the stars’ previous dances, as well as behind-the-scenes footage of the couples preparing to take the ballroom floor. Couples Jason Mraz and Daniella Karagach, Ariana Madix and Pasha Pashkov, Charity Lawson and Artem Chigvintsev, Xochitl Gomez and Val Chmerkovskiy, and Alyson Hannigan and Sasha Farber are all competing for the show’s coveted mirrorball. Soon enough, a countdown timer appeared on the screen, letting fans know that the competition would begin 30 minutes into the show.
Disappointed viewers quickly flocked to X, formally known as Twitter, to express their frustrations. “’Competition starts in 12 minutes’ why did you add a whole hour you couldn’t fill,” a disgruntled fan wrote. “Should I just check back later? This is so boring,” one person wondered.
2 hours is already pushing it. 3 hours is just CRAZY. It's a tuesday.

Where’s the opening number?” “…is there no opening number??? for the FINALE???” another screamed.
“I know they’re not wasting time with a recap rn…” someone else stated the obvious. “Can the judges shut up already and just let the dances begin?!” a final person begged. I know they’re not wasting time with a recap rn… #DWTS #DWTSFinale
