Is ‘DWTS’ on Tonight? Here’s How The Midterms Are Shifting This Week’s ‘Dancing with the Stars’ Schedule
The Dancing with the Stars ballroom is about to be transformed into the most magical ballroom on Earth as we prepare for “Disney Night”!
Due to ABC’s Tuesday night election coverage, this week’s very special episode of DWTS will air on a new night (Monday, November 2). It’s better than a skip week, but how are we supposed to choose between watching The Voice and Dancing with the Stars?!
I guess it’s true what they say: Streaming reality TV is not for the weak of heart. Or maybe I’m the only one who says that? Who knows.
ANYWAY, tonight’s Dancing with the Stars will not only feature a medley of your favorite Disney tunes — Ezra Frech and Daniella Karagach will perform “Under the Sea” from The Little Mermaid and Jenna Dewan and Val Chmerkovskiy will tackle “Be Our Guest” from Beauty and the Beast — but it also includes Wicked star Cynthia Erivo as a special guest judge.
Lights, camera, action! From start time to streaming info, here’s how to watch tonight’s Dancing with the Stars live online.
Is Dancing with the Stars on Tonight (November 2)?
Yes! DWTS Season 35, Episode 9 (“Disney Night”) airs tonight from 8:00-10:00 p.m. ET on ABC and Disney+. The episode will also be available for next-day streaming on Hulu and ABC.com.
Why Is DWTS on Monday This Week?
ABC will be airing election night coverage on Tuesday, November 3, so this week’s Dancing with the Stars is moving to Monday. The show will return to its normal Tuesday night schedule beginning with next week’s “Grammy Night” installment on Tuesday, November 10.
Dancing with the Stars Season 35, Episode 9 Synopsis:
Per ABC, “The ballroom transforms into Broadway as the remaining eight couples bring the magic of Disney to life through showstopping performances inspired by beloved Disney stories and their iconic stage adaptations. Cynthia Erivo will serve as guest judge.”
