In case you missed my tweet this past Saturday night, it’s official: Chris Soules will be the next “Bachelor.” Official in that I’m reporting it. Not sure when ABC plans to make their announcement, but it’s a done deal. Chris signed his contract last week, and film crews were in Iowa over the weekend filming him. He was filmed at the Franklin Hotel/Restaurant in Strawberry Point (where production stayed), a bar in Arlington called the Wagon Wheel, and was also filmed at the Iowa State Fair this past weekend. I appreciate the shout out by the Des Moines Register but, ummmmm, “he allegedly gets his information from…show’s producers.” Not quite. But hey, if people wanna think that, go right ahead. Now, some of you might say, “Yeah, but didn’t production film Arie last month in Arizona?” Yes, they did. Chris is your “Bachelor.” Just like pretty much every other spoiler I give you, if you doubt it, I guess you’ll have to wait til ABC makes … Continue reading →

For those that haven’t viewed the “Bachelor in Paradise” episode-by-episode spoilers, you may do so now. Once the season gets going I’ll fill in any missing dates that I have, but ultimately, the ending is correct. Only 2 couples made it: Marcus and Lacy got engaged, and Michelle and Cody are still dating. The other four couples at the end broke up and none have gotten back together since filming ended. A lot of you have asked if there’s going to be a “live” finale where they all come back and shoot something. For “Bachelor Pad” they had to, because everyone had to come back and vote on the winner. They don’t have to do that on this show because there is no prize. As of now, there hasn’t been a live show added but I can see them doing one since I’m guessing America will want to get an update on the couples that broke up, or at least see them talk about their break … Continue reading →

Welcome to “Bachelor in Paradise,” or as I’m hearing it referred to as, “Bachelor in a place where roaches, scorpions, and insects ran rampant, the food was terrible, hot water wasn’t always readily available, and the place they stayed was kind of a dump.” So yeah, I guess if they want to call that “Paradise,” be my guest. Maybe that’s why #YOPO (You Only Paradise Once) has been adopted by these contestants, because they wouldn’t wish this experience on their own worst enemy. Whatever the case, this was a major sh** show from start to finish with no real concept of what the hell was happening or what the point of all this was. All these people could’ve dated and hooked up outside of the show. Hell, most of them already had. Or at least knew each other. To hear Chris Harrison describe it is pretty laughable. I mean, I get that’s his job and what he’s paid to do. But to call this the best … Continue reading →
