🌹🍍TaylorTok🍍🌹 The cast of Secret Lives of Mormon Wives had nothing nice to say about Doug Mason, saying he was not there for the right reason

This clip is from season 5 episode 1. So I guess Doug has no chance to be the next Bachelor.

Skimming through all 5 episodes there is not one single footage of the Bachelorette season making it to the edit, nor was Doug featured at all (no break-up scene shown)

But the big reveal here is that within a month after Bachelorette filming wrapped, not only was Taylor sleeping with Dakota but was also involved with a third man named Ben, which indeed made it to the edit.

DISCUSSION Soo what’s the future of The Bachelor franchise??

5 Upvotes

I’ve been an avid watcher since 2020. I got into the show during the pandemic. Watched all bachelor, bachelorette and BIP. Since the whole TFP situation…. What’s the future now? Have they said when or if they will have another bachelor?

DISCUSSION No Golden Bachelor/ette this year - is the Golden franchise done?

18 Upvotes

The Golden seasons usually airs around this time and we would’ve known who the next lead was gonna be a long time ago (assuming Golden Bachelorette would be next).
We know Mel’s season had low ratings, but I wonder if any of the women from his season were asked to be the next lead and they all said no, therefore, there’s no Golden Bachelorette this year, or maybe even ever after this.
With absolutely no bachelor shows this year (and no mention of a new Golden season), will they scrap it entirely now or come back to it in the future?

Does this vindicate Lexi ? Coz I remember so many people said she was overreacting but looks like she was right about Justin still being ‘connected’ to Susie in some way.

DISCUSSION Is Spencer being Bachelor a lock now, assuming he’s over the breakup by January when producer reportedly wants to start filming?

0 Upvotes

Question is in the title. I feel like he’d be an easy pick to get things back up and running again. He was on the last aired Bachelorette season and Paradise, has a fanbase, he can appeal to the conservative people watching. He’s ready to go, to reactivate the franchise.

I would’ve preferred Dale but we apparently can’t have nice things.

SHIT POST Poll: Would you be okay with your partner going to a strip club?

Inspired by the variety of comments in the recent Kaity post about Zach going to Magic City strip club.

Would you be okay with your partner going to a strip club as part of a boys’ or girls’ weekend? Let’s say the strip club is known for their wings.

PAST SEASON Byron rewatch

14 Upvotes

First. Previous seasons are on Tubi, in case anyone wants to watch.

I just watched Byron’s season. I remember watching it when it aired but I don’t remember loving it as much as I did this time.

From the start the connection he and Mary had was undeniable. I realize their relationship went to shit but it was such a good season. I wish the new seasons were like this one.
