Dancing with the Stars season 33 recently aired the show's historic 500th episode which saw the six remaining couples reinterpret memorable dances from the previous seasons.
As expected, one couple was eliminated by the end of the night and placed sixth in the overall tally of this season's competition. Let's recap below.
What Happened in Dancing with the Stars Season 33's 500th Episode?
The night opened with a performance of "Crazy in Love" by Beyonce featuring Jay-Z choreographed by Pasha Pashkov and Daniella Karagach, the same song that also opened the show's very first episode.
Derek Hough, Julianne Hough, and Sharna Burgess also made special appearances to join the show's momentous occasion.
Aside from the usual competition, the couples also partake in an "Instant Dance Challenge" where they had approximately five minutes to choreograph and learn a new dance before performing it live.
The biggest standout of the night were Chandler Kinney and Brandon Armstrong as they managed to get the perfect 30 score in both rounds. It is the first time this season that a couple achieved this monumental feat.
Their impressive performance in this episode solidified Chandler and Brandon are the heavy favorites leading up to the finale in the coming weeks where the champion will be crowned.
Who Got Eliminated in Dancing with the Stars Season 33's 500th Episode?
Unfortunately, Dwight Howard and Daniella Karagach were eliminated in the 500th episode round of Dancing with the Stars season 33.
They performed "Santa María (del Buen Ayre)" by Gotan Project which got them a total score of 26. However, they got a disappointing score of 22 in the Instant Dance Challenge where they performed "Victorious" by Panic! at the Disco.
Considering their underwhelming performance on the night, the couple's elimination was not shocking for the viewers.
Dwight was thankful to his partner Daniella for the wonderful experience that he had in the series and how he still managed to make it in the season so far despite the challenges that they had.
As a result of their elimination, only five remaining couples are competing for the next round which will be the season's semifinals.
