Dancing With The Stars has confirmed that Carrie Ann Inaba, Bruno Tonioli, and Derek Hough will return as judges for its 33rd season, which premieres on September 17 on ABC and Disney+. Inaba and Tonioli have been with the show since its inception, while Hough joined as a judge in Season 29 after a successful dancing career on the show. Co-hosting duties will again be handled by Alfonso Ribeiro and Julianne Hough, marking Julianne's second season in this role. The celebrity lineup for Season 33 has yet to be announced, but rumors suggest potential contestants including Jason Kelce and Chris Hemsworth. Inaba expressed her excitement about returning, highlighting the show's enduring appeal. The absence of Len Goodman, who passed away in April 2023, will leave a notable gap in the judging panel.
