Here’s How and Where to Watch ‘Dancing With the Stars’ Season 35 Tonight

Dancing With the Stars is back for another season of sparkly costumes, iconic routines, and its traditional mix of actually famous celebrities and people whose names you haven’t heard in 84 years. The cast? Everyone from Food Network star Giada De Laurentiis to Summer House legend Ciara Miller, to Taylor “MMMBop” Hanson. Not to mention a bunch of pro dancers (minus Gleb, sorry), and at least one new face (hi, Adele Zaikman).
