Alyssa Bates and John Webster, May 2014
On Thursday's special, you'll be treated to some never-before seen footage from weddings and engagements that have been covered on the show, as well as footage from events that have not been covered on the show (video preview below).
For those who have asked if the season is over, we want to assure you that it's not. Amazon and iTunes often don't sell the episodes that are considered specials, so if you don't have access to the UP channel, you may have to wait until new episodes resume to watch Bringing Up Bates.

I know Erin and Chad’s wedding was featured on 19 Kids and Counting, so I really hope they’re still able to show clips from it on UPtv!
ReplyDeleteI think I’ve seen all but Zach and Whitney’s! Hopefully there will be footage of that one!
ReplyDeleteBooooring. If the season isn’t over why are they airing reruns?? It makes no sense. If they hadn’t the footage of Tori’s wedding ready a few weeks ago, one would hope they would have the footage from the next week’s ready too by now.
ReplyDeleteIf you don't like the show format fine, don't watch it, it is your choice. But don't be snooty about it & ruin it for the rest of us ! I have never seen three of the weddings & they are showing other new stuff no one has seen yet on tv, so try to find some good !
DeleteAgree!
DeleteReally? More specials or "recaps"? I really like watching the Bates Family but I need to see something new- Not events that happened years ago with new clips and comments. I could understand it if the season was over, but this is ridiculous.
ReplyDeleteStop & think ?? Clips we have never seen before, I am all in to see new stuff ! I am also glad the season is not over, because we all asked for more & longer shows & we got it !! So don't rain on the good parade ! Also if you look @ the timing.....Royal Wedding...it all fits in with the show !
DeleteThat's how TV operates, seasons end and the reruns commence.
DeleteI'm excited to see all of the older weddings, as well as Tori's, since I missed it.
DeleteI look forward to seeing footage from Alyssa's wedding.
ReplyDeleteYes me too
DeleteTime 6:25AM Tues 5/15/18
ReplyDeleteCool.
I'm sincerely excited to see Alyssa and John's, and Zach and Whitney's weddings. I've seen just a brief clip of Alyssa's on YouTube but nothing of Zach's. I think Michael, Erin and Tori's have all been covered on the show pretty thoroughly.
ReplyDeleteLillie and ellie is there somewsome i can watch the full episodese online?
ReplyDeleteHi there,
DeleteThe episodes are available for purchase on Amazon and iTunes soon after they air. You can also subscribe to the UP Faith and Family channel on Amazon and watch them on there, although they aren't usually uploaded until the end of the season.
Have a blessed day,
Lily and Ellie
Just FYI, I purchased the season pass on iTunes and I haven’t received any of the last few episodes. I’m assuming it’s becasue they’re “specials”.
DeleteI still say show something new! There's a gap when the season is over where the Bates Family isn't even on TV- Show the "recaps" then. My comments are not raining on anyones parade. Comments are welcome and I'm expressing mine.
DeleteI'm glad they'll be showing some footage from Tori's wedding. I was saving it on my DVR to watch later, and somehow it got erased! Hopefully UP will be re-airing it some time soon so I won't have to wait too long to watch the whole thing.
ReplyDeleteThose lace illusion sleeves on Tori's dress are amazing.
ReplyDeleteWasn't the season over after the last thursday of April? I thought that was the original time frame. May is bonus episodes or am I mixed up? If they are on and somewhat new why are people mad?
ReplyDeleteHi there,
DeleteThe season isn't over yet, but you're correct about May being bonus episodes. This season is slated to be the largest yet.
Have a blessed day,
Lily and Ellie
When did the Bates become royalty? There's no monarchy here in America.
ReplyDeleteI think they’re doing all the weddings because of the royal wedding going on in England right now.
DeleteIt's a joke. The real royal wedding is this weekend.
DeleteI just saw a 2014 hair curling tutorial by Erin on YouTube, and she is so delightful I can barely stand it. What a charming young woman! And seemingly so humble and modest in light of her family's fame.
ReplyDeleteI agree. She's so sweet!
DeleteI hope we get to see more of Zach & Whitney's wedding and pre-wedding since we missed it:)
ReplyDeleteI don’t think they filmed that one. They didn’t have the show back then, but Erin filmed hers on 19 Kids and Counting, and Alyssa filmed hers on ABC. But we’ve never heard of Zach’s wedding being filmed
DeleteI agree! Theirs is the only one I haven't seen.
DeleteWhile I usually skip the "clip" shows, I'd make an exception for this one, as I have only seen footage from the weddings of Michaela and Tori. And I hope the clips are made available other than on TV, for the sake of fans who don't get UPTV, as I have heard other clip shows are only shown on TV, not in any other format.
ReplyDeleteI don't think there was ever much actual film footage of Zach and Whitney's wedding, but Kellly used to cover them so well on her old blog that I felt like I saw it. She used to update on the weddings as they were being planned and then she would post just gorgeous pics of the weddings and other events. I will enjoy seeing the first few weddings over again. That's just me. L&E, you do a wonderful job on this blog and give us a lot of inside information. We love it and thank you for all the hard work.
ReplyDeleteThanks for saying that! I'll have to see if the posts are still on her blog so I can read about it!
DeleteI watched it last night it was great!!!!
ReplyDeleteEllie, My wife enjoyed the clips of the Bates Royal Wedding. Do you think they will offer the weddings of Erin, Alyssa, and Zach on Amazon at the end of the season?
ReplyDeleteHi there,
DeleteGlad to have your wife as a reader! Unfortunately, the specials (which includes the Bates Royal Wedding episode) are often not sold on Amazon.
