According to Dancing with the Stars co-host Erin Andrews, home viewers votes from last week and Monday night will carry over into next week and, when combined with the judges' scores, will result in a couple's ouster.
"Disney Night" featured each couple being transformed into some of their favorite Disney characters and dancing to songs from beloved Disney films throughout the years.
