"The Bachelorette" 2020 Will Have All of Bachelor Nation In an Uproar Starting TUESDAY OCT 13 8|7c
When we've got Chris Harrison saying "Congratulations, you've just blown up 'The Bachelorette'" on the trailers for your favorite romance reality show before the season has even started, well, you know you're in for a wild ride. Clare Crawley will finally embark on her journey to find her soul mate as "The Bachelorette" returns for its sizzling 16th season on a new night—TUESDAY OCT 13 8|7c on ABC. After putting Juan Pablo in his place on the memorable, 18th season finale of "The Bachelor," and gaining a new sense of resolve and self-worth, Clare is more than ready to put her romantic disappointments in the rearview mirror and start a wild ride to find her happily ever after on the season premiere.
Thirty-one amazing, accomplished men from all over the nation have left their families, friends and everyday lives behind for the opportunity to meet the stunning hairdresser from Sacramento, California. The bachelors do whatever they can to stand out from the pack, whether it is arriving in a Rolls Royce or a station wagon. An attorney finds Clare guilty as charged for looking spectacular in her sensational first-night dress. A former football star bursts through a "Your Future Husband" banner, while another former athlete sports a baby belly in homage to Clare's arrival on Juan Pablo's season. Which guys are there for the right reasons, and which one is here for a lifetime of happiness?
Time stands still for Clare when one man steps out of the limousine, taking her breath away. Who will top that powerful moment in order to capture the first impression rose? One man made an early impression when he wasn't supposed to, but will Clare read him the Riot Act for breaking the rules or reward him?
