How To Watch The Golden Bachelorette  On ABC:

Want to watch The Golden Bachelorette live? If you have a cable subscription that includes ABC, you can tune in live by setting your TV to the proper channel a few minutes before new episodes air. You can also use your cable username and password to watch live ABC episodes live on ABC.com or with the ABC app. And if your cable package includes a DVR, you can always record live episodes for later viewing.
