Bachelor 27 - Zach Shallcross - Media SM - *Sleuthing Spoilers*

Jesse Palmer is the fresh face that we needed to see! They better not get rid of him. I think he’s staying for good as he should. JMO

I was very sad to see Chris go, but the show has turned into something so overly scripted that I believe that’s the reason it is not as popular anymore. People are tired of the shenanigans in my opinion.

ITA! I felt sad to see Chris go only because he's been around for so long and as they say you're just a number. To be treated that way is sad. Jesse is a welcomed addition!!

Mike Fleiss tweeted that the "Golden" Bachelor (Senior Bachelor) is a go.

Major Announcement!!!! The Golden Bachelor is coming!!!#thebachelor

Oh gosh, not thrilled about that.

I'm okay with that although it all depends on the cast. They need a lead with a great personality, imo.

I'm not sure who started that rumor about bringing CH back but think that ship has sailed in a lot of ways. Now there are plenty of things they could do to improve ratings if they wanted and I don't mean by more drama.

I read about the Chris Harrison rumor in the Daily Mail, not known for their accuracy, but they do like to sensationalize everything

I’m the right age for the Golden Bachelor, but there’s not enough money in the world to want to put myself in the hands of this deteriorating franchise!

It will be interesting to see what they do with the senior lead. Do they just do the same old cr*p that they do with the younger set or do they switch it up? I don't think some of the high jinks they usually pull would work with the older set.

I hope they don't cast 60 year olds who look 40 because they had a ton of work done and are full of botox and fillers. It would be nice to see people who simply take care of themselves and look normal. It would also give them an opportunity to have a more diverse cast...different ethnicities and body shapes. If tptb take this seriously it could be interesting and fun.

I wonder if there could be an announcement coming during Zach's AFTR? or perhaps after the next Bette?

I agree , wouldn't do it for all the money in China. I wonder who the lucky Bachelor or widower will be and what TPTB consider to be the Golden age. Should be interesting , maybe even drama free

Any idea on who would have gotten the second 1N1 in London had it not been cancelled??

No Idea ,but I read that Katie gets a second 1 on 1 at some point, does anyone know what episode that 1 on 1 takes place and what the date is ? So far i'm rooting for Kaity, I like how they look together. Gabi seems nice too though.

Kait and Brookline both get a second 1N1 in Budapest .. Brookline gets sent home

Supposedly Gabi gets the GD rose in Budapest as well
