TV Bites: Paula Abdul Signs Up For Got to Dance

paulaabdulred2.jpg· Good news: Paula Abdul is returning to primetime. American Idol's fallen angel has inked a deal as a "lead judge, executive producer, creative partner, mentor and coach" on the CBS series Got to Dance, which features dance acts competing in every genre from tap to break dance for viewers' votes. This series means that every major network will be airing a dance competition series this season. The Tiffany network will likely announce a midseason premiere date for the series today, which means that there is a chance that Got to Dance could air opposite Idol. [THR]
