No, the Pearson dudes (Milo Ventimiglia, Justin Hartley, and Sterling K Brown) are not competing in Clare Crawley’s upcoming season of The Bachelorette, but their show, This Is Us, and her show have been given fall premiere dates.

This Is Us and The Bachelorette will make their season debuts further back in the fall schedule than usually anticipated; all due to the coronavirus pandemic and production shut downs.

NBC will begin rolling out returning scripted series in late October with This Is Us slated to return for its fifth season with a special two-hour season premiere on Tuesday night, November 10th (9-11 p.m. EST), The following week on November 17th the drama will return to their usual one-hour time slot at 9 p.m.

Over at ABC, The Bachelorette will finally return on Tuesday night, October 13th at 8 p.m, EST/7 p. m. CST). As fans know, this was to be just Clare Crawley’s season. The 39-year-old became the oldest lead of the series looking for love. However, in rumored upheaval, Crawley falls early on for one of the contestants Dale Moss, and makes an exit … and is then replaced by 29-year-old, Tayshia Adams from Colton’s Underwood season of The Bachelor. Look for Adams midway through the new season.

In another switch-up, host Chris Harrison will reportedly miss 14 days of shooting and JoJo Fletcher from season 12 of The Bachelorette has been noted as taking over the hosting chores in his absence. Harrison apparently went into quarantine after taking his son to college.

It has also been noted that the new season of The Bachelorette is following safety protocols and the cast and crew have been quarantined through filming to ensure the health of everyone involved on-camera and behind-the-scenes.

So, looking forward to these two season premieres? Comment below.

This Is Us– it has gone downhill.. When it first aired, season 1 and 2 were great then something happened and each season has been worse than the one before it.. It has become redundant and way too much back-flow. I still like it but now I can do with or without it, what a shame. As for the Bachelorette, that’s junk tv lol women are whoring themselves out ready to mary a man that has been involved with all the others fighting for his proposal. that is about as low one can get in the barrel LOL.. But– there… Read more »

Corbin Bernsen to Reprise His Role of Arnie Becker in ‘LA Law’ Revival Pilot

October 18, 2021

Corbin Bernsen (Father Todd, The Young and the Restless) and the son of Y&R’s late great Jeanne Cooper (Katherine Chancellor) has signed on to reprise his signature primetime television role of womanizing lawyer Arnie Becker in the upcoming LA Law revival pilot.

This makes Corbin the co-lead of the series alongside Blair Underwood (Ex-OLTL) who previously signed on to the pilot to reprise his role of Jonathan Rollins. ABC has greenlit the pilot.

According to Deadline, it is believed that Bernsen and Underwood will be the only original members of the mid 80’s-90’s legal drama on NBC in the pilot, but more may guest-star if the show gets picked up for a full-season order.

In the premise of the reboot, the law firm of McKenzie Brackman, now named Becker Rollins, reinvents itself as a litigation firm specializing in only the most high profile, boundary pushing and incendiary cases. The show will feature familiar characters working alongside new ones on the most hot button issues of the day. As for Bernsen’s Becker, now in his 60’s, look for him to struggle with a rapidly shifting sexual and political landscape.

The original LA Law ran for eight seasons from September 15, 1986 to May 19, 1994 on NBC.

So, what do you think of Corbin taking on the role of Arnie Becket in a revival of LA Law? Would you be intrigued to check out the show if it makes it to series? Comment below.
