## Resource

Comedian Connor Wood is bringing his A-game to Dancing With the Stars, teaming up with pro dancer Rylee Arnold and already feeling the pressure — but he’s embracing it like a diamond in the rough. He’s laser-focused on nailing every routine, especially after hearing judge Derek Hough mention the dreaded number three. While he’s confident they’re dialed in, he knows the stakes: scores as low as two have happened before — though those were ages ago. The judges aren’t expecting many “three-worthy” performances yet. Wood and Arnold clicked instantly, hitting a flow state on day one, and Arnold’s tough love is exactly what he needs. The season kicks off Tuesday, September 15th, at 8 PM ET/PT on ABC and Disney Plus — tune in to see if Wood can turn pressure into perfection.
