SEASON PREMIERE

 SIXTEEN FORMER “BACHELOR” AND “BACHELORETTE” CAST MEMBERS TRAVEL TO PARADISE IN SEARCH OF A SECOND CHANCE AT LOVE, ON ABC’S “BACHELOR IN PARADISE”

“Episode 201A” – Looking for a second chance at love on the two-night season premiere of “Bachelor in Paradise,” beginning SUNDAY, AUGUST 2 (8:00-10:01 p.m., ET/PT) on the ABC Television Network, the cast arrive one by one to their own private Paradise in the gorgeous town of Sayulita, located in Vallarta-Nayarit, Mexico. Welcomed by Chris Harrison, the cast quickly gets acquainted at a Bachelor-style cocktail party on the shores of Playa Escondida. The mood changes quickly when the Mystery Woman enters Paradise, and the cast is shocked to learn who she is. Breaking the tension, Chris Harrison interrupts to explain the rules of Paradise and one shocking twist. This week, the men will hand out a rose to someone they’d like to spend more time getting to know and the women who do not receive roses will have to leave Paradise forever. Then, he informs the group he has one more surprise in store.

Throughout the episode, date cards arrive for two lucky women who get a chance to ask out a man they’d like to spend alone time with, though it’s not without causing drama. The first of many love triangles is quickly formed between a fixated Ashley I., her crush Jared, and sought-after Jade. When Ashley I. receives the first date card, she is overjoyed and asks out Jared. Despite his reluctance, the two head off on an adventurous date, riding an ATV through the jungle to a private beach where they both open up about their feelings and ultimately form a connection. After returning to Playa Escondida, Ashley I. soon discovers that Jade has also received a date card and fears that she may encroach on her claimed man. Jade decides to ask out Tanner, hoping to build on their chemistry and they enjoy a romantic dinner and dip in the pool.

Back at the house, Ashley S. becomes ill and must be taken by ambulance to the hospital. With dates being had and couples forming, all seems to be well in Paradise. That is until Clare from last season unexpectedly enters and changes everything.

“Episode 201B” – On MONDAY, AUGUST 3 (8:00–10:00 p.m., ET/PT) on the ABC Television Network, “Bachelor in Paradise” continues when Clare returns with a date card in hand and a mission to find herself a man. To her disappointment, all of the guys that she’s into seem to be taken. Mikey T. seizes the opportunity by inviting himself on the date and without any other options, Clare accepts. The pair head off to an uncomfortably intimate session of tantric yoga followed by a swim under a waterfall. They soon discover their feelings are not mutual.

Later, Ashley S. receives a date card and chooses Dan to accompany her. The blossoming couple travel to old town Puerto Vallarta for a romantic dinner, where they discuss Ashley S.’s infamous crazy girl reputation. Back at the house, Ashley I. becomes increasingly nervous that she may be losing her grip on Jared, as some of the uncoupled women start making moves. Then at the first rose ceremony of the season, the men hand out the roses and one woman is forced to leave paradise.

Since Bachelor in Paradise generates more questions than answers, why not give it a chat show, too?

EW has learned exclusively that on Aug. 3, ABC will debut After Paradise, a live, one-hour weekly after-show that will immediately follow the two-night premiere of Bachelor in Paradise. Chris Harrison will host alongside author and “Bachelor Enthusiast” Jenny Mollen.

Produced by Embassy Row, the company behind Watch What Happens Live and Talking Dead, After Paradise will delve into the most recent episodes of Bachelor in Paradise alongside cast members and celebrity fans. The duo will take questions and comments from viewers, and will also debut deleted scenes and outtakes.

The second season of Bachelor in Paradise begins at 8 p.m. ET on Aug. 2 and will continue the next night at 8 p.m. ET. New episodes will continue to air on Sundays as well as Mondays, when After Paradise follows at 10 p.m. ET.
