What’s on TV This Week: ‘The Bachelorette’ and ‘Claim to Fame’

Jenn Tran hands out roses on ABC. Kevin and Franklin Jonas host a show with the relatives of stars.

For those who still enjoy a cable subscription, here is a selection of cable and network TV shows, movies and specials that broadcast this week, July 8-14. Details and times are subject to change.

THE BACHELORETTE 8 p.m. on ABC. Though “Bachelor in Paradise” is noticeably missing from ABC’s roster this year, there is still plenty of the franchise to go around this summer. First up is the 21st season of the “Bachelorette,” with Jenn Tran being the show’s first Asian lead. Despite the show’s attempt at diversity, Tran noted in a recent interview with Glamour that she was disappointed by the lack of Asian men cast as potential suitors. Only time will tell to whom Tran gives her final rose and if she leaves the show engaged. Later this summer, viewers can watch the first season of “The Golden Bachelorette.”

CELEBRITY FAMILY FEUD 9 p.m. on ABC. To begin the 10th season of this game show hosted by Steve Harvey, Megan Thee Stallion and Ne-Yo face off in the first round. Then N.F.L. players compete against Olympians in the second round.

SASHA REID AND THE MIDNIGHT ORDER 10 p.m. on Freeform. Sasha Reid, a developmental psychologist with an interest in true crime, has worked to create a database of missing people in Canada. Now, in this documentary series, she teams up with a group of women from different backgrounds to help solve cold cases.

CLAIM TO FAME 9 p.m. on ABC. Kevin and Franklin Jonas are back to host this show, now with a new roster of 11 contestants who all have familial ties to someone famous. The past two seasons were won by Jason Aldean’s cousin Logan Crosby and Nick Cannon’s brother Gabriel Ezra Cannon. The show mixes elements of other competition shows, like “Traitors” or “Big Brother,” in which social alliances are important. And similar to “Love Island” or “Survivor,” there’s immunity and information for the winners.
