All DWTS fans know the show is as much about emotional heartbeats as it is about paso dobles and Argentine tangos. Bergeron’s contributions to mining those heartbeats are immeasurable given his history with the program. Another reason he fit in so well at the judges table is that he didn’t go rogue with his paddles. His scores were fair.

During his return as a guest judge, Tom Bergeron looked directly into the camera as he had a special message to ABC, as he said he wanted to talk directly to the network. Bergeron said, “This show is setting ratings records again, so next season, bring back the results show. Let the whole country vote, Let everybody vote.”

Fans were thrilled to see Bergeron back on the show, splitting duties between being a co-host and a judge on the panel. Bergeron didn't let it get to his head and took the opportunity to celebrate the acclaimed dancing series, as well as get on a soapbox about how the latest episodes prove that this series needs more screen time a week.
