What's new on TV in April 2020: 'The Bachelor', 'Real Housewives', 'How to Get Away With Murder' finale and more
Another month of spending your entire time locked indoors is here and what better way to combat lockdown boredom and withdrawal pangs from no socializing than to tune into some good old fashioned network shows. In the age of streaming and chill, finding that much-needed patience to wait a whole week is a lost art. But for those of you who still aren't as heavily into binging, or want to take little bits and pieces of shows at a time, there's no other comfort as reliable as network TV.
With most networks announcing their running shows having their ongoing seasons cut shorter than the regular number of episodes, maybe the April premiere season might offer some respite.
There's some pretty heavy Bachelor action on the horizon to kick off April the right way. And if things ever get mundane there are always Russian assassins and MI5 agents arriving right in the middle of the month to keep you entertained. Did we mention there's a bunch of biographies and music specials too? Oh, and the icing on the cake? Our favorite, over the top dramatic real housewives of both New York and Beverly Hills, are returning to cure your quarantine blues.
