Dear newsletter subscribers,

This week, the calendar turns to a new month, and also will mark the halfway point of 2020. Yes, this year that has lasted for centuries is half over already.

Thankfully, there's new reality TV to carry us through—though considerably less than last summer. Here's your weekly look at what's premiering in reality TV, unscripted series, and documentaries airing on television.

Chopped will be airing episodes that fans choose, starting Monday night and continuing weekly (Food Network, Mondays at 10 and 11).
