Last week on The Bachelor, the drama was all about Jubilee; this week, she was basically nowhere to be found, as Olivia, “The Twins” and oh yeah, Becca (whose virginity, such a plot point during her last go-round, has barely been mentioned this season), took up all the space in the room. This set-up made one thing…
After Sarah Palin endorsed Donald Trump earlier this week, it was almost inevitable that Tina Fey would return Saturday Night Live to revisit her classic Palin impression. And Fey definitely did not disappoint, she offered up an unhinged riff on Palin’s meandering and confusing Iowa endorsement speech while Darrell…
Being a contestant on The Bachelor is not for the faint of heart (or, if you’re feeling pessimistic, the deeply naive). But Monday night’s episode of America’s most popular quest for love showed some very bad sides of contestants acting out against members of their cohort who had only done one thing wrong: they’d…
After revealing recently that the second season of Everlasting, the reality television show featured on UnREAL, would star a black man in the Bachelor-esque leading role, the producers of the show have now announced that B.J. Britt has been cast.
On every season of The Bachelor, there is a “crazy” contestant. Whether acting of her own accord or (more likely) prodded by invisible producers, she provides the drama for the first few weeks, until the bachelor’s dislike for/fear of her becomes too painfully obvious for even the most optimistic of audience members…
On Monday night’s premiere of The Bachelor Season 20, there were few surprises, except that Ben Higgins was sexually appealing. That was crazy. But otherwise, it was pretty standard: Chris Harrison was tan, a Fox News employee got the first impression rose, someone brought in a mini-horse, and the redhead got sent…
Steve Carbone, the man best known as Reality Steve, emailed me back no more than a minute after I sent him a note asking to interview him. “Sure. No problem. How do you want to do this?” the email read, sent from his iPhone. Carbone is nothing if not plugged in, and as the man who famously spends his days “spoiling”…
ABC has just announced the 28 contestants who will vie for reanimated Ken doll Ben Higgins’ heart this January. None of them are over 30 (Higgins is 26), and one listed her occupation as “chicken enthusiast.” This should go really well.
Well, everybody, it has been quite a month.
Fortunately for the people trapped in this sweltering, crab-ridden retreat for Christian personal trainers—and rather unfortunately for the conceit of this series—things have really dried up in paradise, tears-wise. But that’s not to say that no one cried! Please, this is a Bachelor show.
Ben Higgins, the man Kaitlyn Bristowe was never going to choose to be her husband on the last season of The Bachelorette, will soon be returning to the small-screen to find love once again. But unlike Bachelor wannabe Nick Viall, who slunk his way onto a second season of the show, Ben H. will proudly be returning to…
When UnREAL, Lifetime’s show placed on the set of a Bachelor-esque show, launched, it was lauded for its wholly real depiction of the behind-the-scenes machinations the producers of reality television shows take part in to make the most captivating television possible. But as the series went on, it became less about…
Fresh off the latest season of The Bachelorette that yet again delivered some solid ratings (up from last year!), someone’s a little bizarrely defensive, and that someone is franchise host Chris Harrison.
During last week’s episode of The Bachelorette, Kaitlyn’s obvious final two dudes, Shawn and Nick, had a pretty stupid fight. Not content with having one pointless conversation, Nick “decided” to come back and try again with Shawn, resulting in a pointless argument in which nothing of substance was discussed or…
“Season 11, Week 6: Dublin, Ireland”: A Bachelorette episode which will live in infamy.
“Quasi straight” actress/author/talk show host/dancer/choreographer Rosie Perez had a lesbian relationship in middle school with a girl named ‘Michelle,’ whom, apparently, Rosie wanted to “hump all the time.”
When our children’s children undoubtably take a look back at the shows we consumed circa 2015, they’ll see UnREAL, a new television show premiering on Lifetime Monday night—perfectly timed, you’ll see, to air right after The Bachelor finishes—as a show that couldn’t have been made at any other point in television…
Sad news for Bachelor Nation: last season’s Bachelor Chris Soules is no longer engaged to Whitney Bischoff, the girl who promised she’d leave her job in Chicago where she worked at a fertility clinic to live in a town with a population of less than 500 people because she wanted to settle down and raise a family.
Though host Chris Harrison and numerous contestants went to great lengths Monday evening to prove that the show’s decision to have two Bachelorettes was supremely “awkward,” the most awkward thing was the contestant they let through the door who was such a drunk asshole that he was sent home before he even got to pick…
Anna Kendrick is on the cover of this month's Glamour UK, and arguably the most important piece of intel she divulged was as follows:
