“Dancing with the Stars” Season 34 is well underway, with only nine celebrities remaining in the competition as it approaches the midway point. This week’s episode features the much-anticipated “Halloween night” theme, promising a spooky spectacle as contestants take to the dance floor with frightful flair.
Returning as a guest judge, former champion Cheryl Burke brings her expertise to this week’s performances. Burke, who has won twice in the past, will provide insights and critiques as the celebrity contestants showcase chilling routines.
Last week’s “Wicked” night concluded with the emotional departure of Pentatonix singer Scott Hoying, who was eliminated alongside his partner Rylee Arnold. Meanwhile, Florida’s Alix Earle remains a strong contender after a lively dance to “What is this Feeling?” from the Broadway hit.
As the excitement escalates, the Halloween episode will not only feature eerie makeovers and spine-tingling music but will also bring back the thrilling “Dance Monster-thon,” where all nine couples will dance simultaneously, and judges will eliminate pairs until one duo remains.
For the Halloween themed night, several notable performances are lined up, including:
– Alix Earle and Val Chmerkovskiy performing a Tango to Billie Eilish’s “Bury a Friend”.
– Robert Irwin and Witney Carson dancing an Argentine Tango to “Sweet Dreams Are Made of This.”
– Whitney Leavitt and Mark Ballas showcasing a Jazz routine to Green Day’s “Brain Stew.”
– Andy Richter and Emma Slater wowing the audience with a Paso Doble to Beethoven’s “Symphony No. 5.”
Last week’s performances garnered varied scores, with Whitney Leavitt and Jordan Chiles both scoring 39 out of 40, while Scott Hoying received 28 points before his exit.
As the competition heats up, viewers can cast their votes during the live airing of the show, which airs on Tuesday evenings at 8 p.m. ET on ABC and Disney+. Replays are available for streaming on Hulu the following day, allowing fans to catch up on the vibrant routines and themed spectacles of “Dancing with the Stars.” With the thrilling Halloween night ahead, excitement abounds as viewers eagerly await to see which couples will shine under the haunting lights.
