The Bachelor producers are not taking responsibility for his many scandals, but at this time, I'm struggling to believe they're not behind the problems the franchise has faced and they will not relinquish control to allow genuine stories to happen. Over the last few seasons of The Bachelor and its derivatives, there are issues at stake that go far beyond the standard. While some previous seasons of the franchise's shows have seen cast members bring drama to the show during the off-season, the problems The Bachelor recently faced are a mess of their own making.
With programs like The Golden Bachelor and The golden bachelorette join the franchise while Bachelor in Paradise went on hiatus due to difficult relationships on the show and difficulties the series faced due to previous scandals, Bachelor The nation is eager to see more from the franchise, despite the problems. The programs, however, have caused some major scandals to emerge in recent months, leaving viewers struggling to trust the shows. Instead, they have focused on how Bachelor the producers let down the cast members, the leads, and most of all, Bachelor Nation when creating your content.
Single producers are behind recent scandals
They took no responsibility
Although The Bachelor Season 28 had a happy ending for Joey Graziadei and Kelsey Anderson, the show's producers showed they are under tremendous pressure to build ideal couples and keep the fan base happy. With each season comes a new wave of pressure, as many Bachelor and Bachelorette party couples were unsuccessful in their relationships after the show. With the influx of pressure, Bachelor producers have done everything in their power to make sure things are perfect for Bachelor Nationeven at the expense of its casts and protagonists, as well as their dignity.
Single producers made Gerry Turner take the fall
They painted him as the perfect guy
During the press tour of The Golden Bachelor season 1, Gerry Turner was presented as the perfect guy. Showing it off to the press and Bachelor Nation as the picture-perfect father and grandfather, the widower was open about his life following the tragic passing of his wife, Toni Turner, a few years earlier. Although it was clear that Gerry was serious about finding love The Golden Bachelor, he shared that he wasn't looking for a relationship or dating before starring. This point was emphasized by Gerry and Bachelor producers.
Although Gerry's past wasn't something he was shy about, it was clear that he had been lying about his relationships before. The Golden Bachelor during the final stretch of the season. When Gerry was seen as a liar, Bachelor The nation quickly turned against him, and subsequent events caused people to struggle with their perception of him. Gerry suffered the brunt of hate from former fans, but Bachelor the producers who changed his story to make him seem more palatable were to blame. Allowing Gerry to take responsibility, Bachelor the producers didn't care about the hate he received.
Bachelor Producers Aren’t Prioritizing Lead Safety
They're not vetting cast members thoroughly
During the last seasons of The Bachelorette and The golden maiden, There was some normal vitriol about the contestants as they progressed through the experience, but there were some bigger issues at play for Jenn Tran and Joan Vassosalso. Jenn, the leader of The Bachelorette Season 21 found a cast of guys who were cast to be suitors for an entirely different role, creating problems when they weren't interested in Jenn at once. Devin Strader, who was Jenn's final choice, seemed interested in her throughout the season, but it ended up being quite disappointing.
When Bachelor The Nation discovered that Jenn's final choice, Devin, had a restraining order against him from an ex, they dug into his past and were shocked to find reports of violence. Instead of the calm guy viewers saw on screen, Devin was arrested for some incredibly violent acts, surprisingly Bachelor Nation. When Joan is cast The golden bachelorette was revealed, Bachelor The nation had hoped things would be safer, but discovered two of the men also had restraining orders against them. With Bachelor producers ignoring or rejecting violent behaviorthe leads can't expect to feel safe on set.
Bachelor Producers May Give Up Control of Grant's Season
Things are not likely to change
As The Bachelor season 29 prepares to premiere, I'm struggling to see how things can change for the better when Bachelor the producers allowed so many scandals to be part of their franchise. Instead of being outspoken about difficult issues or trying to improve the way the show works to keep cast members safe and happy, The Bachelor the producers have created a hostile and terrifying environment where it is clear they will not care for the cast after the show ends. With so much uncertainty about how they will be treated, I wouldn't trust The Bachelor producers have success with Grant's season.
The Bachelor Season 29 premieres Monday, January 27 on ABC.
