One of the most anticipated shows returning is, of course, The Bachelorette, which will feature Jenn Tran as the season's leading lady. Tran is the first Asian American star in the course of the show’s entire history.
Plus, we will also be getting another season of Claim To Fame, which introduces audiences to unfamiliar faces with familiar relatives. It’s up to the individuals housed in a huge mansion to determine who the others are related to in order to make it to the end of the competition.
Speaking of competitions, a new game show called Lucky 13 will be debuting, which will be hosted by actress Gina Rodriguez and Shaquille O’Neal, former basketball star turned sports analyst. The series will feature contestants answering true or false questions, but they need to also be able to predict how accurate they were in answering the questions in order to win $1 million.
Other returning shows include Celebrity Family Feud, Press Your Luck, and Who Wants To Be A Millionaire, which was not on the schedule for the past two summers. This year, it will be hosted by talk show host Jimmy Kimmel and the contestants will be celebrities playing for charity. The season will also mark the show's 25th anniversary.
Sadly, one show not coming back for the summer will be Bachelor in Paradise. While it hasn’t been confirmed if the show will instead air in the fall to coincide with The Golden Bachelorette, no announcement has been made about its possible return. Check out the schedule below to see what is returning.
Celebrity Family Feud will also be celebrating its milestone 100th episode, achieved after being on air for 10 years. Plus, fans of ABC's 9-1-1 will be excited to know that some cast members will be featured on an episode of Celebrity Family Feud, as seen on social media. So make sure to keep an eye out for the episode featuring Oliver Stark, Ryan Guzman, Aisha Hinds, Tracie Thoms, and Bryan Safi.
In addition to plenty of game shows and reality shows for viewing, Sunday nights will feature movie favorites beginning on June 2 with Inside Out.
All in all, it looks like the summer will be filled with plenty of fun shows to watch with the family. So make sure to tune into ABC for the summer in order to watch these classics. They'll also be available for streaming on Hulu.
