Disney+ is bringing fans double the dancing next week with “Stars’ Stories Week,” with “Most Memorable Year” and “Prom Night” airing on two nights back to back on Monday October, 17th and Tuesday, October 18th.
What’s Happening:
- Dancing With The Stars; Stars’ Stories Week kicks off its exciting two-night event with “Most Memorable Year.” The 12 remaining couples will perform emotional routines that best represent the most impactful years of their lives. The all-new episode of Dancing with the Stars will stream live Monday, October. 17th (8:00pm ET / 5:00pm PT), on Disney+. (TV-PG, L)
- The two-night event continues with “Prom Night,” featuring the 11 remaining couples performing dances to hits that bring them back to their high school proms. This all-new episode of Dancing with the Stars will stream live Tuesday, Oct. 18th (8:00pm ET / 5:00pm PT), on Disney+. (TV-PG, L)
- Watch episode replays on Disney+ within the hour following the livestream.
- Hosts Tyra Banks and Alfonso Ribiero will walk out to “So Emotional” by Whitney Houston for “Stars' Stories Week: Most Memorable Year.” The pro dancers and troupe will open “Stars' Stories Week: Prom Night” with a performance to “Gimme! Gimme! Gimme!” by ABBA. The evening will also feature the return of the Dance Marathon: all 11 couples will join the ballroom floor at the same time, first dancing a hustle and then a lindy hop. The judges will tap-out couples from the marathon, one at a time. The couples will earn additional bonus points based on how long they remain in the Dance Marathon, and the last couple standing will be crowned Prom King and Queen. Bonus points from the Dance Marathon will be added to the judges' scores from the first round of dance to determine a final combined leaderboard of the night.
- Fans will be able to vote during the livestream of the show both nights in the U.S. and Canada via disneyplus.com/vote. U.S. fans can also vote via SMS/text (message and data rates may apply). This season, live online voting will be available in Canada. With each subsequent episode, the live viewer votes will be combined with the judges’ scores to determine which couples may be in jeopardy of elimination.
