Dancing With the Stars is welcoming a new co-host on Monday night...and it's someone longtime fans of the show will definitely know!

Leah Remini is set to fill in for Erin Andrews as the ABC reality hit's co-host opposite Tom Bergeron on Oct. 20, E! News has exclusively learned. Andrews is set to take a mini-break from her DWTS duties to cover the World Series as Fox's MLB sideline reporter. (Don't worry, Andrews' fans, she'll be back after the Series ends!)

"So excited to be back on the show, even more excited I don't have to dance!" Remini exclusively tells us. "I hope ABC has a delay, gonna speak my mind!"

Who else is already insanely excited to hear what quips and questions are going to come out of Remini's mouth?!

The King of Queens actress, who recently starred in her own TLC reality series, It's All Relative, competed on season 17 of DWTS, dancing with Tony Dovolani. Remini and Dovolani came in fifth place. 

Remini won't be the only guest in the ballroom on Monday night, as Pitbull will serve as the panel's fourth judge, filling in for head judge Len Goodman. He'll also be performing his new hit song "Fireball" during the two-hour show. 

DWTS airs Mondays at 8 p.m. on ABC.
