'Dance Moms' gets figure skating spinoff 'Ice Moms'
Lifetime has announced a Dance Moms spinoff set in the world of figure skating.
The network previously revealed that a Miami-based spinoff of the hit dancing series is in the works.
On Thursday, Lifetime unveiled plans to expand the franchise into figure skating with the new series Ice Moms.
"We've conquered the world of competitive dance with our hit Dance Moms and have great plans to expand the franchise to Miami," said Network executive vice president Rob Sharenow.
"Now, we're bringing the format to the intensely competitive world of figure skating and revealing the explosive dynamic between the kids, parents and coaches who all want to be the best."
Dance Moms was renewed for a second season in September 2011.
