“The Bachelorette 2020,” after a long delay due to COVID-19, began its 16th season on Tuesday, Oct. 13.
Its Tuesday timeslot is a departure from the show’s usual airtime, which has historically been on Mondays. For some fans, this has been an unexpected source of confusion.
This season, the series will feature Clare Crawley and, later, Tayshia Adams as the season’s bachelorettes. Chris Harrison will host the majority of the episodes, with Jojo Fletcher occasionally stepping in for him.
Here’s the information you’ll need to watch “The Bachelorette” on Tuesday when it returns, including with a free live stream.
“The Bachelorette” will not air on Monday nights this season.
Instead, the series will continue with its second episode of 2020 on Tuesday, Oct. 19 at 8 p.m. on ABC. The episode will air for two hours, and will be followed by a repeat episode of “Supermarket Sweep” at 10 p.m.
If you’re a cord-cutter or don’t have cable, you can live stream “The Bachelorette” on Fubo TV, a streaming service that offers a free trial. As of last month, Fubo TV now offers ABC as part of its channel package.
The streaming service lets viewers watch the series, and other ABC content, live as it airs. There is also DVR functionality.

For cord-cutters, if you’re concerned you might miss “The Bachelorette,” you can use the DVR feature of Fubo TV, which also offers a free trial, to record and store episodes of the series, along with anything else that airs on ABC. It will also be available to stream on-demand on Hulu Live TV, which offers a seven-day free trial, as well.
For cable subscribers, “The Bachelorette” will be available to watch the day after each episode airs on ABC.com by logging into the website via your cable provider.
According to the official ABC website: Clare Crawley will head back to the Bachelor mansion as she embarks on a new journey to find true love, when The Bachelorette returns for its sizzling 16th season on ABC. Clare had women across America cheering from their living rooms when she famously stood up to controversial Bachelor Juan Pablo during the memorable 18th season finale of The Bachelor... When Clare walked away from Juan Pablo that fateful day in St. Lucia, she asked tearfully, “Where is the man who will fight for me?” Will she find this man when she returns on the 16th season of “The Bachelorette”?
