Although most people hate to admit it, you love The Bachelor. This show is what makes Monday nights bearable as there's nothing like watching thirty women fight on screen over one man. This is primetime entertainment for Americans. Will you accept this rose?
ABC
Tune into ABC Monday's at 8/7c for this season of The Bachelor.
Bachelor, Bachelorette, Bachelor in Paradise
How could we go multiple months at a time without the Bachelor? We can't. We need more. These spin offs give us so much more drama to binge watch. Here we go again.
Chris Harrison
Does anyone ever question why Chris Harrison hasn’t become the bachelor yet? Doesn’t he need to find love too? I give him props for putting up with all of this drama and for being one of the best show hosts of all time.
Dates
The Bachelor knows how to have the most extravagant dates anyone has ever seen. Private helicopter rides, bungee jumping, and performing with the Backstreet Boys are just some of the crazy dates the Bachelors have come up with.
Elimination
What’s better than the anticipation leading up to the next rose ceremony? Who’s going home tonight?!
Final rose
More people tune into the finale of the bachelor than any other episode of the show. Why? Because all we want to know is how it ends.
Goodbyes
"Ladies, take a moment and say your goodbyes." Viewers, get ready for A LOT of tears. After just one week, these ladies knew the bachelor was the one for them and now they are “heart-broken.”
Hometowns
Let’s see what these girls do in all of their small towns. Nothing like having a contestant’s dad crush her dreams, and a big brother to beat up the bachelor. Oh hometowns.
Intensity
Here’s to the few conversations that are actually serious on this show.
Jobs
Jumbotron operator, dog lover, chicken enthusiast, sorority recruiter, hipster, and pantsapreneur are some of the quite interesting jobs some of the contestants on the bachelor have had in the past. Where does ABC find these people? I am not sure.
Kisses
Endless kissing. There are the people who kiss night one, and the people who don’t kiss until episode 5.
Limos
We all await the night the women first get out of the limos. What will they look like? What will their first impression be? What are they going to do?
Monday Nights
Best night of the week. 8/7c, TV on, no interruptions, it’s time for The Bachelor.
Nation
If you watch the show, you’re a part of the bachelor nation. It’s like family.
Open relationships
Imagine dating 20+ people at one time. It's like "Oh you're dating him? But so am I."
Previews
Watching the previews at the beginning of the season, and trying to figure out by hair colors who makes it how long. Boy, I can’t wait to find out.
Qualifications
What makes a contestant suitable for the bachelor? Tune in to find out what the man wants.
Reality TV
The best part of the bachelor is that it’s real. These are real people, meeting on TV to find love. Craziness.
Spoilers
There’s always going to be those few people who look up who wins just so they know the entire time. Let me tell you, if you tell me who wins, I will not be a happy camper.
Traveling
Don’t lie, you wish you got to go to the places the contestants get to go. Paris, Italy, Mexico, Hawaii, Barbados, St. Lucia, Bali and endless other places.
Unnecessary drama
One of the best parts of the show is watching the girls and all the drama. Never-ending drama.
Viewing parties
Grab your friends, some popcorn and wine, you’re going to need to talk to people about the craziness on this show.
Will you accept this rose?
The most famous line of the show. Even if you don’t watch the bachelor, you know the line.
X-tra
What would the Bachelor be without the girls who come out of the limos in costumes? Sharks and brides on night one? Can you say crazy?
Your favorite villains
Just like every TV show, you need a sweetheart, minor actors, and most importantly the villains. Villains in the bachelor meaning the people we see as horrible while the bachelor sees none of it. My favorite villain from the show? The one and only Corrine Olympios of course. “I didn’t mean to offend anyone by taking that nap.”
Zoom
Does anyone else notice how fast the 9 weeks go? Good thing we have spin-offs! The countdown begins.
Here's to the people who continue to watch this show and the boy's journeys to find love. See you next Monday night on The Bachelor.
