So, we get the immediacy of the results."

"The West Coast can still vote, but it will be voting when the show goes on for the first time," Llinares clarified."What we love about it is, if someone comes and does a great dance that night, but say they didn't have a great dance the week before, they can come back, they can redeem themselves... We're voting based on these dances that actual night." Bergeron told ET on Wednesday that judges would have a"little extra oomph" this season.
