Just hand her the Len Goodman Mirrorball Trophy already. Three-time U.S. national champion and Olympic gold medal-winning figure skater Amber Glenn is switching the ice rink for the ballroom in “Dancing with the Stars" 2026, and it's hard to see how anybody else gets a look-in. Then again...
Here's how to watch “Dancing with the Stars" season 35 online from anywhere with a VPN.
"Dancing with the Stars" S35 premieres on Tuesday, September 15 on ABC in the U.S..
• Stream — Hulu (next day)
• International — Disney+
• Watch anywhere — try NordVPN 100% risk free
"The Rookie" star Jenna Dewan started out as a backing dancer for Janet Jackson before finding fame through "Step Up" and "Take the Lead", and "Glee" favorite Harry Shum Jr. starred in that iPod ad and once toured with Beyonce, Alicia Keys and Missy Elliott. Both deeply impressive CVs.
Julia Stiles could be dark horse, because you'd suspect that the "10 Things I Hate About You" star-turned-director wouldn't willingly make a fool of herself on national television. The reunion between Tatyana Ali and her erstwhile "The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air" co-star Alfonso Ribeiro should be fun, the duo having played siblings Ashley and Carlton Banks on the cult sitcom.
There are 16 couples in all, while Ribeiro and Julianne Hough are once again on presenting duty, with Carrie Ann Inaba, Derek Hough and Bruno Tonioli judging. There are a couple of new and returning faces, however, in Adele Zaikman (winner of the inaugural season of "Dancing with the Stars: The Next Pro"), and Sharna Burgess, who stepped away in 2021.
Read on as we explain how to watch "Dancing with the Stars" season 35 online from anywhere. Scroll down for the list of couples and a teaser.
