Is The Bachelor on tomorrow, Monday, February 28?

THE BACHELOR - "2605" - Week five starts off with a splash when Clayton and one lucky woman head to Galveston, Texas, for a high-stakes date all about pleasure. Later, at the cocktail party, Clayton learns the cause of the palpable tension in the house is really one woman; but when confronted, she gives an award-worthy apology performance that might just be enough to keep her around. Then, it's time to go international! In Toronto, Canada, one lucky lady takes her relationship with Clayton to new heights and those on the group date take some heat from comedy legend Russell Peters - and each other - during The Bachelor Ultimate Roast! But who will get the last laugh when Shanae and Genevieve are given the infamous two-on-one date? Find out on "The Bachelor," airing MONDAY, FEB. 7 (8:00-10:01 p.m. EST), on ABC.

The Bachelor Season 26 heads into hometowns this week! Yes, I know, I can’t believe it either! It is wild to think that we are just a couple of weeks away from seeing how Clayton Echard’s journey is going to end. Will he end up with one of the women? Or will he walk away from this whole experience just as he came into it?

We’ll have to hang tight to see how this plays out, but until then–let’s focus on hometowns! I’m very curious to see how Clayton is going to fare meeting each of the contestant’s family members. We all know that this is the most awkward part of the season and absolutely staged. Every single time it’s the same dialogue, the same doubts, and the same arguments.

We will not be surprised at all if one of the women goes home because things got heated during the family meeting, will we? It’s usually the way these things work, so just be ready for anything to go down.

When does The Bachelor Season 26, Episode 8 premiere?

This week’s episode of The Bachelor will air on ABC at 8 PM EST! For two whole hours you will enjoy four hometown dates as Clayton makes his way through multiple cities to meet the families of the women he has fallen in love with.

This is the first time that the Bachelor franchise has returned to traveling for hometown dates (thank goodness!) since the quarantine bubble seasons began. I’m so glad that we’ve returned to a sense of normalcy with the show because those resort-confined seasons were simply not cutting it.

And with that, we hope you’ll join us as we live-tweet this week’s episode! Let the shenanigans begin!
