Name of Show:
The Bachelor
Network:
ABC
First Aired:
March, 2002
Hosted By:
Chris Harrison
What It’s About:
25 beautiful women compete to win the heart of one lucky Bachelor.
How Each Season Unfolds:
Each week, the women go on “group dates” or, if they’re lucky, “alone dates” with the Bachelor. The alone dates usually result in lots of smooching and “deep” talk about love and marriage. At the end of each episode, the Bachelor must let go of at least one woman. She is usually devastated as she leaves in a waiting limo. Don’t be surprised if she says “I thought we had a connection.” At the end of the season, the Bachelor must choose between the two women who made it all the way to the end. He usually proposes.
Why You Should Watch:
Imagine 25 desperate women living together and competing for the same man. Enough said!
Why You Shouldn’t Watch:
Sadly, none of the Bachelor romances have resulted in marriage. The bachelor and his fiancé usually break up within a year.
