“This is the best first show of any season!” judge Len Goodman said.

Judge Carrie Ann complimented White.

“You are the icing on the cake, just smooth, smooth, smooth!” she said after his foxtrot with Johnson.

Judge Bruno Tonioli raved about Jenkins’ dance:

“That was exquisite. The style was impeccable, the quality of movement was surreal,” he said.

Tonioli also had good words for Levy and Burke:

“Ladies and gentlemen, I present to you the hottest package of the season,” he said.
