The hit reality dance competition “Dancing with the Stars” continues celebrating its 20th anniversary season with Season 34, Episode 8, airing Tuesday, Nov. 4, at 8 p.m. ET on ABC and Disney+.
In this week’s episode, the remaining couples will take the stage for Rock and Roll Hall of Fame Night, dancing to classic hits that honor music’s greatest legends, with special guest Flavor Flav joining the judges’ panel.
However, with the ongoing YouTube TV and Disney dispute, subscribers to YouTube TV are currently unable to access Disney-owned channels, including ABC, leaving many viewers wondering how to still tune in live.
Fortunately, there are several reliable and easy alternatives to ensure you don’t miss a single performance or elimination, including Fubo, DIRECTV and other streaming services listed below.
