ABC has announced the fall premiere date for Bachelor in Paradise season 8, but this time the show won't air in the summer. For the past seven seasons, Bachelor in Paradise has given cast members from The Bachelor and The Bachelorette a second (or third, or fourth) chance at love on the beaches of Mexico.

When ABC revealed that Rachel and Gabby season would premiere on July 11, Bachelor in Paradise fans wondered when the summer staple would air. Some viewers even worried that the show was cancelled.
