If there is High Quality shows then its Disney's other app Hulu that is getting them along with FX. I don't know about ABC Specifically though.
Keep in mind that some other networks have been moving away from original programming completely as the audience and/or advertisers aren't there to make them worthwhile to produce. NBC is discussing pulling the plug on network programming from 10 - 11 p.m., which was once considered the "3rd hour of prime time". Other companies have had good luck offering original programming on their streaming platforms...and it's my guess that fans of the shows you mentioned might appreciate having them available via streaming so they can catch up on missed episodes, or "binge watch" several episodes at a time, rather than only being able to see them once per week, only at the time they're offered for viewing per the TV Guide.
There are shows and movies that carry a warning they are for "Mature Audiences". I don't know. Some of that content seems to be for immature people.
And ratings for individual shows hardly matter. Disney+ gets every subscriber's money every month no matter what they're watching, or even if they're not watching at all.
I just watched the first episode. Main issue I see so far is their timing. Even though they're on Disney+ streaming, they seem to be trying to stick to a certain time schedule. They spent gobs of time bantering with the various participants toward the beginning of the show, to the point where they didn't have time to interview some of the "starts" before they were judged and at one point one of the judges wasn't even able to give his critique and they kept signaling to them that they were out of time, but yet Tyra Banks always got to say her filler BS which adds nothing to the actual competition. I'm guessing it's a different for them this season since they don't have commercial breaks now, and since there are no commercials they don't really have time to "huddle" every several minutes to discuss the timing or pace of the show; it all now moves quite quickly.
The winners are Charli D'Amelio and Mark Ballas. They were marvelous throughout the season.
This makes me sad. Just like RadioDiscussions has DavidEduardo, TheBigA, Kelly A, Gr8oldies. AbrahamJSimpson and maybe a few others, every show, program and even website needs it's share of crotchety older "curmudgeons" like Len Goodman to make sure the others don't get too fancy for their own pants, and to keep things in check.

Thankful to read this. IMO she didn't seem understand the role of a host and often tried too hard to position herself as central to the show rather than the 'dancers', the 'stars' or even the judges. She wore gaudy, over the top costumes and outfits and usually had at least one wardrobe change per show, she inserted her own comments and opinions too often and rarely did I ever read or hear a positive comment about her on that particular show. Even the link in only1moore's post above has 8 comments in reply, all of them critical of Tryra or happy to see her go, but none of them support her or are positive. I like Tryra, but she wasn't the right fit for that particular gig.Tyra is leaving the ballroom…
