How long is The Bachelorette tonight? Let's just say tonight's episode will be a long one!

Well, Bachelor Nation, I don’t know where the time has gone but somehow Jenn Tran’s season of The Bachelorette has reached the finish line and there’s just one more episode before the show signs off for the season. 

Tonight, fans are in store for a can’t-miss episode which will see Jenn making her biggest decision of the season as she chooses between her final two men: Devin Strader and Marcus Shoberg. It could honestly go either way at this point as both men have seemed to form strong connections with Jenn during the course of the season, but Marcus has begun expressing concerns that he might not be ready for an engagement so we could be in store for a messy and dramatic ending to Jenn’s season! 

While we’ll have to wait to see how things play out tonight, what we do know is that Bachelor Nation is going to want to make sure to plan ahead for a long night as tonight’s new episode is going to be a long one. 

Just how long is tonight’s episode of The Bachelorette? 

Keeping with recent tradition, the final episode of The Bachelorette season 21 will be a super-sized three-hour finale. That’s right, I said three hours! ABC’s hit series will be taking over the network’s primetime block tonight with the extended finale that promises to bring about the end of Jenn’s journey as well as incorporating the live After the Final Rose segment. 

The episode will begin at 8/7c tonight and will air across ABC’s primetime slot wrapping at 11 p.m. ET. While ABC is pretty good at making sure the live finales end on time, it doesn’t hurt to still set your DVR over if you’re not able to watch it live or to be prepared on the off chance the episode runs a few minutes late.

There are plenty of ways to watch The Bachelorette finale

Now that we’ve established tonight’s Bachelorette finale is going to be a long one, just how can you enjoy the finale? Well, the answer is that you have a few options to choose from! 

Of course, the easiest way to watch tonight’s finale is just to watch via your local ABC affiliate via cable. However, if you don’t have cable you can also watch the episode live via a number of select streaming plans including fuboTV and Hulu+ Live TV. You can also watch the finale live on ABC.com with a valid TV provider login from AT&T U-verse, Spectrum, Cox, DIRECTV, DIRECTV Stream, Dish, Optimum, Verizon, or Xfinity.

Now, if you can’t watch the episode tonight, you should be able to stream it on Hulu sometime on Wednesday, but the exact time is a but unclear. Hulu is the streaming home to ABC originals, but we’ve found that sometimes the episodes can arrive on Hulu a bit late, so your best bet would be to DVR the finale just in case it arrives on Hulu late.
