ABC and Warner Bros.’s decision to postpone “The Bachelor Summer Games” comes after the International Olympic Committee confirmed on Monday that the this year’s Summer Olympics would be delayed until 2021.
“The Bachelor Summer Games” was never formally announced, but ABC alternative boss Rob Mills confirmed the series was in development on an episode of the “Bachelor Party” podcast earlier this year.
