ABC’s hit series R.J. Decker returns for a second season, kicking off with a three‑episode crossover that blends the world of crime drama with the glitter of Dancing with the Stars. The season‑premiere opens on a bustling Miami street where a flash‑mob brings together the show’s actors and two of the dance competition’s most recognizable professionals.
Stars from the dance floor join the drama
“I just love these little crossovers, integrating these worlds together,” said Jenna Johnson, a veteran Dancing with the Stars pro, after filming the sequence with fellow dancer Val Chmerkovskiy. Both praised the collaborative energy, noting that the actors “did great” and that the performance turned out “a lot of fun.”
Joey Graziadei, known from The Bachelor and as the winner of Dancing with the Stars Season 33, appears in the episode as a thief. “It’s been really fun to be part of this crew and this cast, everyone’s been super inviting,” he said.
Higher stakes and a whodunit mystery
Series star Scott Speedman hinted that the new season will raise the drama’s intensity. “There’s more action, the stakes are higher,” he explained, adding that the storyline will continue the murder mystery of Emi’s father that concluded the first season. Lead actress Jaina Lee Ortiz said the show will balance “light” moments with “deep emotional” relationships.
Bevin Bru summed up the upcoming season in one word: “MORE.” He teased a possible love triangle and promised that the drama, relationships, and intrigue will be front and center.
When and where to watch
Season 2 of R.J. Decker airs Tuesdays on ABC and streams the following day on Hulu. The crossover highlights ABC’s strategy of cross‑promoting its popular franchises, offering fans a fresh blend of crime storytelling and dance performance.
The Walt Disney Company, the parent of ABC, continues to leverage its extensive entertainment portfolio to create event‑style television that appeals to a broad audience.
