TV Notes: ‘Dancing’ contestants chosen

Is it possible Mark Cuban, Marie Osmond or Wayne Newton can dance?

Television viewers will find out on the new season of “Dancing With the Stars,” which has assembled another eclectic field of contestants.

Billionaire Dallas Mavericks owner Cuban, singer Osmond and Las Vegas headliner Newton are among the 12 celebrities who will compete when the show returns Sept. 24, ABC announced Wednesday.

The rest of the field:

“Actress Jane Seymour (“Dr. Quinn, Medicine Woman”).

“Melanie Brown, aka “Scary Spice” of the Spice Girls.

“Actress Jennie Garth (“Beverly Hills, 90210”).

“Floyd Mayweather Jr., welterweight boxing champ.

“Sabrina Bryan of Disney Channel’s “Cheetah Girls.”

“Indianapolis 500 champion Helio Castroneves.

“Model-actress Josie Maran.

“Soap star Cameron Mathison (“All My Children”).

“Model Albert Reed.

As in past seasons, each celebrity will be paired with a professional dancer. In the contest that ended in May, Olympic gold medalist Apolo Anton Ohno beat out former ‘N Sync singer Joey Fatone to win the dance-off’s mirror-ball trophy.

Other champions were soap opera star Kelly Monaco, former NFL football star Emmitt Smith and onetime 98 Degrees boy-bander Drew Lachey.

‘Price’ sets Drew debut

CBS has set an October premiere date for Drew Carey’s debut as host of “The Price Is Right.”

New episodes of the venerable game show will begin airing Oct. 15 as it kicks off its 36th season – and first without Bob Barker.

After 35 years as host, Barker retired on June 15. The show has been airing Barker-era repeats ever since.

Carey was a late dark-horse in the search, sneaking up to snag the job in late July. He’s been filling his time hosting CBS’ “Power of 10,” which will run through mid-September.
