The title remains "Dick Clark's New Year's Rockin' Eve," but more than ever, it's Ryan Seacrest's show now.
With the death in April of iconic showman Clark, who was joined since 2006 by "American Idol" host Seacrest for one of television's most popular holiday events, the pop music showcase that rings in a new 12-month cycle will be different by nature. Yet it will stay much the same, as Seacrest and others strive to maintain the tradition that Clark initially set on New Year's Eve 1973 on NBC, where he produced the special for two years before moving it to ABC and becoming its host.
In fact, ABC will make the whole evening very much a tribute to Clark on Monday, Dec. 31. The night will begin with "New Year's Rockin' Eve Celebrates Dick Clark," a two-hour special in which hosts Fergie and Jenny McCarthy introduce clips from past years' festivities,...

New York -- Yes, Ryan Seacrest has a New Year's resolution for 2013: improve his skill at dancing.
"There's a Significant Other in my life who's very good at it," he notes.

So add dancing lessons to the long list of projects that keep Seacrest famously fast on his feet. His numerous broadcast gigs include roles on E! Entertainment and NBC, a syndicated morning radio show for Clear Channel, as well as "American Idol," whose new season starts next month on Fox. Behind the cameras, he has a swiftly expanding production empire that includes the Kardashian portfolio of reality shows.
