After moving to Disney+ for season 31, Dancing with the Stars will return to ABC for season 32. The popular dance competition series was Disney+’s first live series, and with season 32 the show will become the first live series to air simultaneously on ABC and Disney+.
“Welcoming Dancing with the Stars back to ABC offers us the unique opportunity to capitalize on the breadth of Disney Entertainment and reach audiences across all our platforms,” stated Craig Erwich, president, Disney Television Group. “Wherever viewers want to watch, we have a home for them to tune in and root for their favorite couple in the ballroom.”
Alfonso Ribeiro and Julianne Hough will host season 32 of the competition which pairs up “celebrities” with trained ballroom dancers.
“Season 31 gave us the opportunity to introduce Dancing with the Stars to a new generation of fans on Disney+, and we are excited to build on that with our partners at ABC and Hulu,” said Alisa Bowen, president, Disney+. “We’re looking forward to giving our viewers a front-row seat to the dance floor on another great season of the first-ever live series on Disney+.”
Season 32 is expected to be part of ABC’s 2023-2024 primetime lineup. The network hasn’t announced an official premiere date.
