The wait is almost over (and no, we’re not talking about Thanksgiving). We refer to the 33rd season finale of Dancing with the starsABC’s long-running competition show that somehow manages to grow more nail-biting every year.

Tonight’s three-hour finale will feature the five remaining couples doing two dances each — a redemption round awarded by judges Carrie Ann Inaba, Derek Hough and Bruno Tonioli; and a freestyle round where competitors can (hopefully) show off their best moves.

Hosted by Julianne Hough and Alfonso Ribeiro, the telecast will also include performances from 2025 Dancing with the stars live touring group and see last season’s winners return.
