Since the start of season seven, the Bates have officially filmed more than 100 episodes of Bringing Up Bates, which premiered on New Year's Day 2015. (They were also featured in a mini series, called United Bates of America, on TLC in 2012.)
We know some of you are concerned, as last week's episode was a recap of the best Bates sports moments, and tonight's episode will highlight the most viewed Bates clips. But we want to assure you that new episodes will return next Thursday.
This season will be the largest to date. The network has ordered 26 episodes, so the Bates still have plenty of exciting footage in store for viewers!

Thank you for the update!
ReplyDeleteThanks to you for all the updates, but it does seem like we are really far behind in what is happening. In September Tori got engaged. We just saw that on tv. Not sure how the tv crew works but it would be nice to see more up to date info. You look forward to watching & it is all old news. Sorry to complain, love the family & the show - only good show on tv, but up needs to give us fresh info on time. Seems like they did better before. I will always watch but stop holding back the info, please !!!
ReplyDeleteIf there's all this exciting footage still to come, why did they waste two weeks with boring re runs? I, for one, am tired of rehashing old stuff and expecting the audience to believe it's 'new'. UP and TLC need to quit that....also, we don't need 10 minutes of recaps after a commercial. We KNOW what we just viewed on the show.
ReplyDeleteI found that many shows on all networks were re-runs the past few weeks. My assumption was that networks did not want to run new content against the winter olympics.
DeleteNo Alyssa and John in this pic!
ReplyDeleteI'm excited and looking forward to seeing more new episodes next week. But, I understand why the past two weeks have been highlighted episodes. Since the Olympics have been airing. Most of the programs that I watch, have been on hiatus for the duration of the Olympics. So, I truly appreciate the fact that we were still able to enjoy the Bates family highlights. I also appreciate your hard work keeping the blogs updated. I hope that You have a wonderful weekend.
ReplyDeleteThank you so much for keeping us up to date.
ReplyDeleteI recently cancelled our cable service. How can I stream the Bates each week? I do not think it is available on my UP app as it only goes through last season.
Hi there,
DeleteYou can purchase the episodes on iTunes or Amazon soon after they air.
We're blessed to have you as a reader. :)

Thank you for the response. I will purchase on iTunes. Have a blessed day!
DeleteNo reruns. No excuses. Get it together, UP.
ReplyDeleteI'm not interested in the Olympics at all and I really enjoy watching The Bates Family when the episodes are truly new. I'm not happy that UPTV felt it was okay to the advertise episodes as new when the were clips of old shows. Olympics or not, if UPTV would have just been honest and made their statement before the games started, I would have still watched The Bates Family- Honesty is the best policy... I thought they would have figured that out. I didn't watch last nights "re-cap".
ReplyDeleteWhy is Michael mostly hidden? Surely there's a better pic.
ReplyDeleteCan I watch the Bates on the internet? If so where? Thank you
ReplyDeleteHi there,

I have bought the all 7 seasons on iTunes but this is the first season that the episodes are not being updated. Do you have any idea why that is?
DeleteThe episodes are up on this iTunes page: https://itunes.apple.com/us/tv-season/bringing-up-bates-season-7/id1323252978

Excited to see new episodes👍
ReplyDeleteWho is the guy behind Josie next to her boyfriend. He has his head tipped back laughing??
ReplyDeleteThat’s Jackson Bates. :)
DeleteDear Bates Family, Your show has brought me so much joy to watch. Especially now. We lost my mother right before Christmas of 2017, and it has been very hard. I know she is with God and that she had fulfilled her journey for him on this Earth; but my head has a hard time convincing my heart of this. So when I'm sometimes feeling down, I will go back and watch one of your shows I've recorded. They help me to laugh and smile at a time I need it. Your family so beautiful. Not only on the outside, but on the inside. Gil and Kelly, I know God is so proud of the way you have raised your children. For they have turned out so wonderful! So many times I have wished there was a church near me that would have as wonderful preacher as you, Mr. Gill. Thank you all for the joy, laughter, and the way you help us to see things in a better light. God bless all of you!!!
