One of the big screen's most iconic horror characters makes his TV debut tonight as part of the retooled third season of the Scream TV series. The new season, dubbed Scream: The Resurrection, will air on VH1 (instead of MTV) and scraps the storyline of the series' first two seasons, bringing the original Ghostface mask to TV for the very first time (along with his original voice, Roger L. Jackson).
SEASON PREMIERE: Airing in two-hour blocks over three nights this week, the six episode third season of Scream centers around all-star athlete Deion Elliot (RJ Cyler) whose dark past comes back to haunt him and a Breakfast Club-like group of other students in detention with him. Mary J. Blige, Keke Palmer, Tyler Posey and Tyga also star. 9:00 PM ET on VH1
NEW EPISODE: It's hometown visit week on The Bachelorette, as Hannah travels to southern California with Peter, Florida with Tyler, Georgia with Luke, and Knoxville, Tennessee, with Jed. Tune in to see whether any of these boys' families prove to be an obstacle to True Reality TV Love. 8:00 PM ET on ABC
SPECIAL PRESENTATION: The worlds of trash-to-treasure reality TV and classic rock collide tonight as American Pickers locates the original Aerosmith tour bus. Making it even more special, Aerosmith themselves will be stopping by to inspect and reminisce over the contents. 8:00 PM ET on History
DOCUMENTARY PREMIERE: This month marks the 50th anniversary of the Apollo 11 moon landing, so get ready for lots of related programming. The Armstrong Tapes presents never-before heard audio interviews with notoriously private first man to set foot on the moon, Neil Armstrong. 9:00 PM ET on National Geographic Channel
