Are people trying to stay unspoiled? Is it possible, at this point?
The season's recent developments have been running continuously on every pop culture news outlet, I'm trying to follow all of the r/bachelor super sleuthing and just thinking "wtf is HAPPENING right now"
@sWaMPqUeeN was just talking about this with me last night!
Apparently the bachelorette just peaced off??? And now they're getting Taysha as the bachelorette? Honestly I love that, power to the first girl, she got hers and said "peace" lmao
I was thinking, there hasn't been a normal season ending in a long time. (Peter dumped Hannah Ann for Madison and then started dating Kelly, Hannah dumped Jed because he had a gf, Colton jumped the fence for Cassie, Becca's was normal I guess but not without controversy, Arie dumped Becca for Lauren....) The producers have to keep one-upping themselves on the drama- sometimes it's done well and leads to some fascinating character arcs and social commentary (Hannah's season) and other times it's just convoluted and infuriating (Peter's season).
It's definitely interesting to see the levels of absurdity increase over the seasons. One of the things I've really enjoyed is watching the "Greatest Seasons Ever" that's been coming out on Hulu. It gives good insight into when certain trends or ideas started in the show. Perfect case being when a contestant was caught lying about having a girlfriend back home early on (Justin/Rated R). SUCH an amazing confrontation, and then to play the audio clips of him leaving voice messages for his gf as he's walking away from the hotel?? chef's kiss
Premiere date is now October 13th. It's wild to think that the season was originally supposed to premiere in May, we haven't had any new content since PeePee's disastrous season and Listen To Your Heart (which I almost completely erased from memory).
I'm so thankful that BigBearWill has given us some good TV content to watch because GOD LTYH was so bad. Also @sWaMPqUeeN and I drove by PeePee's high school the other day while we were in California! Our wedding this November will likely be happening at a mansion up the street from where Pilot PeePee first learned to do lame dances in front of other people :>
I agree, Big Brother has honestly been a breath of fresh air after this mess of a year in the Bach franchise.
OMG a historic landmark! I pray a hedge of protection around your wedding venue so that PeePee's bad dance vibes will not interfere haha
IT'S FINALLY HAPPENING
LET'S GOOOOOOO
Our running theory on the man shouting "I expected more from the oldest bachelorette ever" is that it's Yosef...only time will tell if that prediction rings true. We're already all sad to see southern drawl boy go, but snitching never wins you any feathers in your cap.
As for the premiere in general, to quote my fiance:
I trust your sleuthing. And I don’t think we will have to wait very long to find out! We have like, what, a couple of weeks before this season completely implodes?
God I hate/love this show so much. It’s an honor to be back in The Pit with y’all haha
HAHAHAH did you make this??? That's all our tv shows right there
Yes it's my OC haha

"Marry, Fuck, Kill with the Party City costumes" OMG
This episode in a nutshell:
I know I sent this to @Aether already, but wanted to formally recommend @BachelorData on Instagram. Some really clever/interesting graphs on there.
Also check out the website for live dashboards.
ALSO Matt James' season is premiering January 4th, so we are going straight from Bachelorette into Bachelor. The Bachelor usually premiers in January anyway, so looks like they are getting us back on track for a "regular" calendar year (Bach in January, Bachelorette in May, Paradise in August).
God I miss Paradise so much😞
