What’s on TV This Week: ‘Below Deck Sailing Yacht’ and ‘Abbott Elementary’

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, Oct. 7-13. Details and times are subject to change.

Monday

60 MINUTES: ELECTION SPECIAL 8 p.m. on CBS. This program, in which CBS sits down with the Republican and Democratic presidential nominees, has been a bit of an election-season tradition for over 50 years. And with no more debates on the docket, this would have been another opportunity for voters to hear from the candidates before Election Day. But on Tuesday, according to CBS, former President Donald J. Trump backed out, declining to be interviewed by the correspondent Scott Pelley. Vice President Kamala Harris is still scheduled to be interviewed by Bill Whitaker.

BELOW DECK SAILING YACHT 9 p.m. on Bravo. For a while, the fate of this “Below Deck” spinoff seemed precarious. The last season aired through July 2023, before the boatswain, Gary King, was accused of sexual misconduct by a member of the production team, Samantha Suarez, in an exposé for Rolling Stone. The next month, King didn’t appear at BravoCon, a convention where fans can meet Bravolebrities, so viewers wondered if he was off the show. But just like that, King is going to be back on our screens with very little explanation. At the time of the accusation, Bravo said: “The concerns Ms. Suarez raised in July 2022 were investigated at that time and action was taken based on the findings.” King will be joined again by the chief stew Daisy Kelliher and, of course, Captain Glenn Shephard, a fan favorite.

Tuesday

AN OPRAH SPECIAL: THE PRESLEYS — ELVIS, LISA MARIE AND RILEY 8 p.m. on CBS. For this special, Oprah Winfrey traveled to Tennessee to sit down with Riley Keough, the granddaughter of Elvis Presley and an actress in her own right. This is the first time that Keough has been interviewed since her mother, Lisa Marie Presley, died unexpectedly in January 2023. Lisa Marie had been writing a memoir, “From Here to the Great Unknown,” which Keough finished on her behalf after her death.
