Is anyone else low-key addicted to Dancing with the Stars? I know it’s regarded as your typical competition reality show that doesn’t seem to have much depth, but at the end of the day, I love me a feel-good program that lets me shut my brain off for just a little while. Can’t a girl live?
If you’re also missing DWTS, you’re not gonna want to miss out on these similar shows that offer the same fun, yet competitive energy. Here's what shows to watch — and fill your Tuesday evenings!

Fox
So You Think You Can Dance — Stream on Tubi
My family and I were so obsessed with SYTYCD in the early 2000s that we literally got tickets to see them perform live in concert. (Side note: It was phenomenal.) Rather than just slinging a bunch of celebs together, this series follows some of the best dancers on the planet, all coming together to blow audiences away. Talk about talent! Plus, a few of the DWTS pros even got their start on this show.
Lifetime
Dance Moms — Stream on Disney+
Another classic (albeit chaotic) dance show, as dramatic as it is full of talent, is Dance Moms. The scenes with Abby Lee Miller are downright hilarious due to her larger-than-life persona and dedication to precision in choreography. It’s hard to watch at times due to the tough-as-nails nature of the show, but if you love mindless drama, you’ll get a kick out of this one.
ITV
Dancing On Ice — Stream on Apple TV
This competitive series takes the concept of Dancing with the Stars and raises the stakes by putting everyone on ice. You get the same setup, with celebs pairing up with the professionals, but it’s arguably a lot more challenging due to the dangerous risks involved on the ice rink.
Prime Video
Are You Smarter Than a Celebrity? — Stream on Prime Video
We’ve all seen Are You Smarter Than a Fifth Grader, but what about Are You Smarter Than a Celebrity? Instead of watching our fave stars compete with their legs on the dance floor, we get to see them compete with their brains as they get tested on general knowledge. Pretty fun stuff, especially because it’s hosted by Taylor Swift’s beau, Travis Kelce.
Netflix
Americas Sweethearts: Dallas Cowboy Cheerleaders — Stream on Netflix
They may seem untouchable and picture perfect amid their performances, but behind the scenes involves a whole lot of turmoil and drama. Follow the Dallas Cowboy Cheerleaders as they train to become the top-notch performers in Texas. It ain’t easy!
NBC
World Of Dance — Stream on Peacock
I personally love this reality show for its star-studded judges (Jennifer Lopez, Ne-Yo, and DWTS’ own, Derek Hough) and the outstanding performances by the top dancers on the planet. I break a sweat just by watching alone, and I’m not even the one dancing!
Fox
The Masked Singer — Stream on Tubi
This series involves your fave celebs whose identities are hidden behind elaborate costumes. Can you guess who is behind the mask based on their vocals and intricate clues?
NBC
The Voice — Stream on Peacock
With the charismatic panel of celebrity judges and the outstanding talent, it’s hard not to become addicted to this show.
