ABC Puts 'Bachelor' Franchise Against TNF

[Mark Jeffries]

In a last-minute switch, ABC has decided to put its "Bachelor" franchise shows on Thursday nights against Amazon Prime's Thursday NIght Football, with the new "Golden Bachelor" starring an old codger romancing old ladies going from Monday after "Dancing with the Stars" to 8 p.m. and "Bachelor in Paradise" from Wednesdays to 9 p.m.:

Wednesday nights will be game shows, with "Celebrity Jeopardy!" (KenJen hosting), "Celebrity Wheel" (Vanna may not be present if she's still angling for more money) and "Pyramid." Monday at 10 and Tuesdays are blank for now and "Judge Steve Harvey," "Press Your Luck," the reboot of "What Would You Do?" and "Abbott Elementary" reruns (the only scripted on the fall schedule outside of the Sunday Disney movies) currently homeless.
