The Golden Bachelor finished up its juicy "Fantasy Suites" episode this week, and while this season was pretty tame on the drama front, there was certainly a lot to talk about after Gerry Turner's dates with Theresa and Leslie.

ICYMI, Fans met the infamous Gerry Turner back in September, and he truly has not disappointed. BTW, casting for this show started three whole years ago, so this Golden guy is the creme de la creme of Bachelors.

It feels like *everyone* is tuning in to see if 72-year-old Gerry finds love again. This season's leading man lost his wife of more than 40 years, Toni, to a bacterial infection in 2017. With 22 women originally cast, there have been a lot of personalities for Gerry's future Mrs. in the mix, including a "glam-ma" and a woman who says she's "obsessed" with Christmas. There was even a familiar face in the form of Matt James’ mom, Patty James (who sadly got the boot after just one episode).

Now, Gerry's down to just three women, and things are definitely heating up.

Now, onto the even more important stuff: when do new episodes drop and when can you catch the show live? Here’s everything to know.

When does the next episode of The Golden Bachelor air?

The next episode will not air until 8 p.m. on November 30 on ABC. Make sure that popcorn is popped. This week, there will not be an episode, but rest assured, Gerry will have to make a decision before the credits start rolling.

What has happened so far this season?

So far, Gerry has whittled the competition down to three women, cried over a departure (Goodbye, Joan!), given out his first impression rose, turned 72 years old, stolen a cupcake kiss from Theresa, danced a little bit with Leslie, and gone on several one-on-ones—including a diner and hot air balloon ride. He's also done several group dates, one of which included a talent show and a lap dance.

Stay tuned for more juicy details and debriefs after the final episode drops!

What time do new episodes air?

New episodes of The Golden Bachelor run on Thursdays on ABC at 8 p.m. ET/5 p.m. PT. Unlike other Bachelor Nation shows, this one runs for just an hour, wrapping up by 9 p.m., so you can get to bed at a decent time…or watch Bachelor in Paradise. Sadly, November 30th will be the final episode before a possible After The Final Rose episode.

When do new episodes drop?

New episodes will drop on Thursdays at 8 p.m. ET throughout October. You can also catch them starting at 5 am the next-day on Hulu. Here’s what to know so far:

Next week's episode will be the one where the final two contestants get a ring... or not. It’s not totally clear yet if there will be an After the Final Rose episode. However, it looks pretty likely, since everyone will be dying for more deets on Gerry and his lucky lady.
