Former host of Dancing With the Stars, Tom Bergeron, received a surprise gift from production designer James Yarnell five years after his departure from the show. Bergeron had a strained relationship with the show's production after his final season, but returned to the scene for the 20th anniversary episode. He shared his gratitude for Yarnel and his friendship with him. Despite initially disloyalty to the showrunner, Bergeron returned after a difficult period. The show's salary is not yet disclosed, but it is estimated that pros and contestants make up to $50,000 per episode, or $110,000 each season.
