‘Dancing With The Stars’ Disney100 Night Secures Solid Ratings Growth In 3-Day Multiplatform Viewing

EXCLUSIVE: Dancing With The Stars sashayed its way to a self-proclaimed ratings win on Disney100 Night.

The October 17 episode saw the remaining 11 couples celebrate the Mouse House’s 100th anniversary with performances to popular Disney songs.

After three days of cross-platform viewing, the episode grew to a 0.97 rating among adults 18-49 (up from a 0.63 in live+same-day).

That marks the highest-rated multiplatform telecast for Dancing With The Stars since Season 32 premiered in September.

Disney100 Night also tallied 6.24M viewers across the three-day viewing window. That’s up from 4.7M who tuned in on ABC that night. Dancing With The Stars is also simulcast on Disney+, though those live numbers aren’t available on a weekly basis.

As mentioned above, this isn’t quite as good as the ratings for the Season 32 premiere, which managed 6.50 million viewers and a 1.08 rating after three days of multi-platform viewing.

ABC said the premiere held even with the series’ prior season on ABC in fall 2021, when it averaged 6.50 million viewers. The competition show moved to Disney+ exclusively for Season 31 where viewership numbers were never released.
