"Dancing with the Stars" will hit the ground running with a huge two-night premiere for Season 35.
The reality competition show's new season begins Tuesday, Sept. 15, and continues Wednesday, Sept. 16.
Sixteen celebrities and their pro partners — including Adele Zaikman, the recent winner of the inaugural season of "Dancing with the Stars: The Next Pro" — will face off in live performances over the two nights.
On the first night, the male celebrities will each perform to a No. 1 song from the year they were born. The female celebrities will do the same the following night. But, in an added twist, one male and one female each will be eliminated at the end of both nights.
In addition to the competitors, the cast features hosts Alfonso Ribeiro and
Julianne Hough, with Carrie Ann Inaba, Bruno Tonioli and Derek Hough at the judging table.
When does 'Dancing with the Stars' come out?

"Dancing with the Stars" Season 35 will premiere on Tuesday, Sept. 15, and Wednesday, Sept. 16.
Each episode will be two hours, from 8-10 p.m. ET.
Fans can vote during each episode, but only for the couples competing that night — the male celebrities on Sept. 15 and female celebrities on Sept. 16. Live viewer votes will be combined with the judges' scores to determine who is in jeopardy of elimination.
