Your DVR may be tied up with episodes of The Bachelorette right now, but it's time to look ahead! Bachelor in Paradise (yes, another spinoff) premieres Aug. 4, and the cast is filled with former contestants. "For seven weeks, the group will live together in an isolated romantic paradise and over the course of six episodes we'll follow these former bachelors and bachelorettes as they explore new relationships," describes ABC. "America will watch as they fall in love or go through renewed heartbreak. The romantic dating series will feature new twists, shocking surprises, unexpected guests, and some of the most unlikely relationships in Bachelor history, plus all the usual romance, drama, and tears we've come to expect from the Bachelor franchise." Take a look at the contestants, including multiple guys from Andi's season!
