Hmm... playboy? Player? Pimp Master? Bikini-clad babes? "True love" in quotation marks? The Bachelor falls further down the relationship rabbit-hole?
Seems the producers are finally calling it as they see it. No more pretending that this is a search for true love and a lasting marriage.
Read for yourself. Here is the new description for the upcoming season of The Bachelor. Do you see Reid as this type of bachelor?
M.
"When it comes to falling in love, The Bachelor has the formula down: Add a parade of 25 (often-times bikini-clad) babes, a hot tub, tear-riddled elimination rounds, verbal cat fights, multiple make-out sessions and a mansion. When it comes to staying in love... well... *crickets*
The Bachelor takes us on an all-access journey with one man looking for his ultimate sweetheart. Whether you're envious, excited or completely revolted by the scenario, we know you can't help but spy on our leading man as he plays tonsil hockey with his many lady loves. Arguably the luckiest guy on the planet–for just one television season–our bachelor finds himself TOTALLY exempt from the cheating rule. In this world, nobody hates the player.
The bachelor is the object of 25 girls' affection. And these women aren't those trashy bar flies you see on other reality dating shows–these ladies are classy (yes, with a "c"!) and they are looking to get hitched. Have no doubts over their determination–these women will do anything to make an impression. ANYTHING. You get to see how lady contestants play the game not only in front of the bachelor, but also what side they show the other girls. (Two-face much, ladies?) And we know you love it when the claws come out. Oh, and they do!
Will these bachelorettes' efforts go unnoticed? You'll find out because you get to play spy during all of the one-on-one dates. These rendezvous can involve anything from couples massage and bubble baths to helicopter rides and bungee jumping. At the end of each episode, the bachelor reflects on all of his darlings to determine who will go home in the rose ceremony elimination. And we know his choices are always the subject of heated living room debate.
As the season progresses, you are taken along on the bachelorettes' hometown visits where our playboy extraordinaire switches gears to meet the family. You'd think the prospect of in-laws would kill the buzz for our said mack daddy. But quite the opposite inevitably occurs as the bachelor falls further down the relationship rabbit hole.
Who will steam up the hot tub with the bachelor this season? From which exotic location will he propose to his "true love"? Sit back and enjoy as host, Chris Harrison, A/K/A "The Pimp Master," guides us each week as the bachelor narrows down the field of his female pickings to the final ONE!"

Ohh Marianna you never cease to provide me with great entertainment even if you are only interjecting a few of your own words - they are GOLDEN!!!
ReplyDeleteWe will see what happens with the next season - doubt very much if I will watch unless it's that adorable with a capital A (leave him alone Fleiss). Although there was a darling darling on Big Brother *red faced* this summer and I was watching his exit interview on CBS yesterday and all I could think was damn he could carry the next Bachelor no problem.

I am part of the writers group - just registered yesterday and started to read your posts - very very good!!!
Once things have settled down a bit I might have more time - these next few weeks are crazy and then we are off to Arizona in October. Hope the new school year finds you happy and healthy.

Hey Joanne!
ReplyDeleteWe're not private yet! I whisked Nadya away for the weekend for her birthday and neither of us had time online. I believe that followers disappear when the site becomes completely private. Authors can always see profiles of other authors by clicking the names on the contributor list.
M, this description really makes me hope that Reid declines the Bachelor "honor". Then I won't feel compelled to watch another season!
Jim
Mariana,
ReplyDeleteI don't know where you found that article, but it makes my stomach churn! Honestly, I don't know how I could possibly contemplate watching the next go round of the Bachelor after reading that.
And yet, I think there may still be some sort of sick fascination for me, if The Bachelor is one of the 'leftovers' from 'our season'. The very fact that we are all here and having such intelligent and thoughtful interactions, due to that 'production' is astounding. Our blog has to be the most positive outcome of the whole show and I do mean over and above JED!
So will I watch again? Hmm, it remains to be seen. Like Jim says, if it's Reid, or Kipton, I'll be tempted. And if all of you are watching and commenting, I will likely get sucked in. It will also depend on what time it airs, as I don't yet own a PVR and with my weird schedule, it may not be convenient to watch live every week. I really hope I can give it a miss. It just seems wrong to me to support such bull****. Sorry if that reminds you of Wesley Weasel.

How self-aware of ABC!
ReplyDeleteHello Marianna~
ReplyDeleteAlways great to hear an enjoyable spin via your pen! Best part is the outcome of unavoidable laughter that your posts bring to me.
Sadly, I haven't been able to participate in the blog this past summer. Our dearest friend passed away; then my dad, in and out of the hospital all Spring, had a massive stroke the first of August, taking from him his ability to speak clearly. Of late, its a rare day when I get to peck away on my keyboard, but hopeful that I'll soon be able to participate more frequently.
Just wanted to check-in and compliment you on your ever-clever musings. I know they are appreciated by all.
Layla
Hi Layla,
ReplyDeleteI only just found your post today -- I guess I should go back and check all the comments to see if there are any new ones...
I'm so very sorry to hear of the sadness in your life. You are in my thoughts and we all look forward to when you are feeling up to sharing time and thoughts with us here on our little blog.
Take good care,
M.
