Good Monday morning. It's March 15, the Ides of March, so I'm here to watch your back, and make sure you don't miss any reality TV premieres this week. How's that for a stretch of a metaphor?

Let's get to the premieres before I attempt another one.

Tonight is the finale of The Bachelor season 25 (ABC, 8 p.m.), followed by After the Final Rose (10 p.m.), hosted by Emmanuel Acho.

It's the first reunion not hosted by Chris Harrison, who's been replaced as host of The Bachelorette's next season.

On the new four-episode series Expedition: Back to the Future (Discovery+, Monday), Expedition: Unknown star Josh Gates and Back to the Future star Christopher Lloyd search for a DeLorean to donate to a charity auction.

Spoiler alert: They found a car, and the rebuilt vehicle is being auctioned off starting Monday, with proceeds benefitting the Michael J. Fox Foundation for Parkinson's Research.

It's been 10 years since America's Most Wanted left Fox, but now it's back (Fox, Mondays at 9), with Elizabeth Vargas hosting and encouraging viewers to help solve cases.

HBO's new documentary series Q: Into the Storm (HBO, Sundays at 9) spent three years investigating the bonkers conspiracy theory that has failed to make a single correct prediction yet has many followers. HBO says the series looks at how those behind Q used "information warfare to game the internet, hijack politics, and manipulate people's thinking."

Under Suspicion: Uncovering the Wesphael Case (Netflix, Wednesday) is a true-crime series about the trial of a Belgian politician accused of killing his wife.

In lighter fare, Overserved with Lisa Vanderpump (E!, Thursdays at 9) has the Vanderpump Rules star hosting celebrity guests for "cocktails, games, and delicious feasts crafted entirely by Lisa herself," E! says.

Black Ink Crew is reuniting cast members from all three of its franchise's cities for a two-part special (VH1, Monday, March 15 and 22, at 9), Black Ink Crew: Secrets Unlocked. Eva Marcille hosts.

Host Lara Spencer tries to get homeowners to sell things on Everything But the House (HGTV, Fridays at 9), while The Blended Bunch (TLC, Tuesdays at 9) is about a blended family bringing together 11 kids in one house.

Holmes Family Effect is a two-night special (Fox, Tuesdays, March 16 and 23, at 8) starring Mike Holmes and his kids Sherry and Michael who "surprise these deserving people by transforming their spaces," according to Fox.

Six documentaries start streaming this week:

Operation Varsity Blues: The College Admissions Scandal (Netflix, Wednesday) looks uses reenactments starring Matthew Modine that Netflix says are "based on recorded conversations from the investigation."
Groomed (Discovery+, Thursday) is director Gwen van de Pas's story of her "search [for] answers about the man who sexually abused her as a child," and includes her interviews with "survivors, psychologists, and even a convicted sex offender," according to Discovery+.
The nature documentary The Last Unknown (Discovery+, Thursday) takes cameras to Alaska's Aleutian Islands, which Discovery+ notes is "a place few people have ever seen with most of the islands remaining completely uninhabited with no docks, trails or resources."
The Beatrice Six: Keith Morrison Investigates (Discovery+, Tuesday) is about a 1985 murder for which six people were convicted, but DNA evidence "turned the case and the town upside down," according to the network.
Estonia (Discovery+, Saturday) is the story of a ferry that sank in the Baltic Sea in 1994 and killed 852 people.
