Who Are the ‘Dancing With the Stars’ Judges in Season 35? They Were Just Announced!

Dancing with the Stars is gearing up for Season 35, which has a two-night premiere starting September 15. The cast (who are being announced today on GMA) has been spotted in rehearsals ahead of the season, and if you’re wondering who’s judging their dance numbers this year, the judges were just revealed.

Give a warm welcome to Carrie Ann Inaba, Derek Hough, and Bruno Tonioli. Bruno and Carrie Ann have been judging DWTS since its inception, while Derek was a pro dancer on the show before becoming a judge in Season 29. Meanwhile, Alfonso Ribeiro and Julianne Hough are coming back as hosts. In other words: the gang’s back together!

As for what everyone teased during their Good Morning America appearance, Julianne said, “The fashion is going to be really fun with one specific theme night. For me at least, I'm very excited.”

Meanwhile, Derek said, “You can expect what you know and love about 'Dancing With the Stars' but also an energized show. We have so much momentum. The cast is incredible. The pros are energized. It's going to be an incredible season. I cannot wait.”

Again, DWTS kicks off its two-night premiere on September 15 at 8 p.m., and at the same time on September 16. The show will air on ABC and Disney+ before being available to stream the next day on Hulu!
