Dancing With The Stars Season 28 finally eliminated the first celebrity contestant of the season. Mary Wilson is going home and will no longer be competing for the Mirror Ball Trophy. The contestant was eliminated at the end of an exciting show that began with a surprise new voting format announcement.

During the show, fans could vote for their favorite contestants on the ABC app and ABC.com. Each contestants' scores were combined with the scores from week one, which were surprisingly low. Viewers at home were shocked by how strict the judges were, as the highest score was James Van Der Beek's 21/30. Lamar Odom earned one of the lowest scores in the show's history with an 11/30.

At the very start of the episode, hosts Tom Bergeron and Erin Andrews announced a big change. Judges Len Goodman, Bruno Tonioli and Carrie Ann Inaba will get to chose one of the bottom two couples to stay on the show, no matter what their vote totals were.
