Format
The finals began with 24 contestants, 4 male and 4 female from each country. After partners are assigned, couples pick a dance style out of a hat, are rehearsed by a choreographer, and perform their routine. Following the airing performances, home wievers vote for their favorite couple. The bottom three couples (six dancers overall) are then liable for elimination by the judges on the results shows an hour later. All six dancers perform a solo, after which the judges one male and one female contestant (the two first shows they eliminate four dancers). If the eliminated dancers are not from the same couple, their respective partners form a new pair for the following week's performances. Once field of dancers is narrowed down to the top 12, permanent partnerships dissolve and contestants draw their new partners and two dance styles from a hat each week. The judges no longer have any say in the elimination process; viwers call in to vote for their favorite individual dancer, and the male and the female with the lowest votes are eliminated each week.
