Season 24 of ABC’s Dancing with the Stars will start off by hitting a new milestone when it airs with a two-hour season premiere on Monday, March 20. It will be show’s 400th episode, and DWTS is still as popular as ever. As with other seasons, Dancing with the Stars will start off with a huge dance number featuring the show’s pro dancers and will introduce this season’s stars as well as the show’s judges, Len Goodman, Julianne Hough, Carrie Ann Inaba, and Bruno Tonioli.

“This season’s lineup of celebrity dancers includes the greatest Olympic gymnast in history, a two-time World Series champion – and the show’s first baseball player, a real housewife of Beverly Hills, a bull rider who survived a catastrophic injury, a member of the popular band Fifth Harmony, and the original ‘CuchiCuchi’ girl, to name just a few,” ABC explains.

For the first show, each couple will perform a tango, cha cha, salsa, Viennese waltz, or quickstep. And yes, Mr. T will dance to theme song from his old TV show, The A-Team. Find out what style and song each couple will dance to below.
