So, without further ado, here’s a look at all the best network TV heading your way this week.

Monday Highlight — ‘The Bachelor’ Season 29
Remarkably, ABC’s The Bachelor is in its 29th season, and it is yet to lose its charm. After finishing fifth in Season 21 of The Bachelorette, 30-year-old Grant Ellis is swapping sides on his hunt for love, becoming this season’s Bachelor and the second-ever Black male lead on the series. After 2.36 million tuned in for both weeks 2 and 3, similar numbers are expected following Valentine’s Day, with Monday, February 17’s episode titled “Week 4: Madrid” seeing the competition take a turn for the sunnier and, most likely, the hotter.

Tuesday Highlight — ‘FBI’ Season 7
FBI‘s seventh season has been seriously heating up following the show’s return for its midseason premiere in late January.

Of course, Tuesday nights don’t only host FBI, with spin-offs International and Most Wanted directly following the original at 8:00 p.m. A synopsis for the episode reads:
