THE BACHELORETTE - "1507" - Bitter tensions that have been building throughout the season finally explode. Amsterdam's spectacular tulips frame the most challenging decision Hannah will make so far. Which men will she choose to take her home and introduce to their families? She is also falling for multiple men, complicating the already difficult situation. The lucky recipient of the first one-on-one date shares a romantic boat trip with Hannah along the city's famed canals. Will they be able to elevate their connection sufficiently to guarantee him a rose? One man's anxiety level shoots up when he learns that he and Hannah will explore The Hague on horseback. Will he be able to open up enough to justify receiving a rose? Another bachelor decides to throw caution to the wind and puts his heart on the line in a late-night visit to the Bachelorette, leading Hannah to make an unexpected decision. The Mauritshuis Museum, displaying paintings of the Old Masters, is the site for the final one-on-one date, which results in a stunning outcome. Hannah takes her remaining men to the bustling cheese market in Gouda and the magnificent Town Hall for the high-stakes three-on-one date, which provides one of the most riveting and explosive scenes this season. Who will survive and who will be sent packing? Find out on "The Bachelorette," MONDAY, JULY 1 (8:00-10:01 p.m. EDT), on ABC. (ABC/Mark Bourdillon) TYLER C., HANNAH BROWN

2) “So You Think You Can Dance,” 9 p.m., Fox. “Dance” has been one of TV’s best reality shows, filled with gifted dancers and serious judges. This season, however, it had a stealth start, airing a week earlier than was originally announced; ratings fell. Now that opener reruns. Joining judges Nigel Lythgoe and Mary Murphy are Lauriann Gibson (Lady Gaga’s creative director) and the dynamic Dominic “D-Trix” Sandoval: He finished seventh in 2007, then won on “America’s Best Dance Crew.”

3) “Divorce” season-opener, 10 p.m., HBO. Sarah Jessica Parker once triumphed in HBO’s “Sex and the City”; in this show, her character moves to the city, where she may or may not encounter sex. That faces the season’s second episode of “Legion” (10 p.m., FX), with David preparing for a journey.

4) “Cupcake Championship” debut, 10 p.m., Food Channel, rerunning at 1 a.m. Our summertime tastes may turn sweeter (or just sillier), so this fits the mood: Four cupcake-designers try to please a panel that includes Maureen McCormick of “Brady Bunch” fame, with a $10,000 prize. In the opener, they work with floral designs.

5) “Grand Hotel,” 10:01 p.m., ABC. Working undercover in the hotel, Danny gets some key information about his sister’s disappearance. Meanwhile, Alicia – armed with optimism, idealism and an MBA — thinks she can save her dad’s hotel … if she can overcome resistance from her stepmother.
