Dancing With the Stars Confirms Judges Returning for Season 33
We still don’t know which celebrities will be hitting the ballroom floor in Season 33 of Dancing With the Stars, but at least we know who will be judging their best (and worst) moves.
ABC has confirmed that all three current judges — Carrie Ann Inaba, Derek Hough and Bruno Tonioli — will return for the new season, set to premiere on Tuesday, Sept. 17 (8/7c).

Dancing celebrated the trio’s return with a post on social media:
Commenting on ABC’s announcement, Inaba said she’s “honored to be back … and looking forward to an incredible season.” She and Tonioli are the only judges who have retained their seats for all 33 seasons of the hit competition show. Len Goodman sat beside them for nearly every season, prior to his death in April 2023.
Inaba, Hough and Tonioli will be joined by Alfonso Ribeiro, who returns for his third consecutive season as the show’s host, as well as Julianne Hough, who will be co-hosting for the second time.
