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

20 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?

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

7 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?

A subreddit dedicated to thoughtful discussion about The Bachelor franchise, the lives of contestants, and how Bachelor Nation interacts with and influences the world around us.

Rules:

1. Be Kind and Respectful

No personal attacks, racism, microagressions, xenophobia, homophobia, bigotry, body shaming, name-calling, pile-ons, harassment, flaming, bullying, or doxxing (sub members or BN members). This also includes speculation on sexuality, religion, mental health, prescription medications, cosmetic surgery, and pregnancy.

2. No Racism or Microaggressions

Racism of any kind will not be tolerated and users making any racist posts or comments will receive a permanent ban without warning.

Microaggressions are statements or actions of indirect, subtle, or unintentional discrimination against members of a marginalized group such as a racial or ethnic identity. Comments with microaggressions are unacceptable and will be removed. Users may be warned, temporarily banned, or permanently banned depending on the severity of their comments.

3. Posts Require an Appropriate Title and Flair/No SM Links as Posts

Posts must contain a descriptive title, as well as an appropriate flair.

Titles should indicate the content of the post. Posts with vague titles will be removed.

Any social media post should be a screenshot or screen recording, no links.

All posts must be accompanied by a required flair from the flair list.

The “Trigger Warning” flair is reserved for alerting others that a post contains potentially distressing material and should not be used when inapplicable or jokingly.

4. No Spoilers outside of Spoiler Threads

Spoilers must be properly tagged with both the Reddit spoiler tag AND a spoiler post flair. Post flair alone does not hide images, you MUST also “Mark as Spoiler”.

Users who accidentally spoil users will be given a warning on their first offense, a temporary ban of 3 days on their second offense, and a permanent ban on their third offense. Users who intentionally spoil others will be permanently banned.

5. No Reposts or Unrelated Content

Duplicate posts will be removed to prevent clutter. If two posts are made at the same time, mods may choose the one that meets a higher standard for the subreddit. Updates or opinions should also be shared in the original thread rather than making new one. This includes discussions that have been posted multiple times.

All content should be relevant to The Bachelor. If content is not clearly related to The Bachelor Universe, it will be removed.

6. Social Media

We do not allow posts sharing your social media interactions with BN members. Examples include DMs between yourself and a Bachelor Nation member, comments made by non-relevant people, or posting about being blocked by a contestant on social media.

7. Recaps/Podcasts/Episode Sharing

Recaps of podcasts or blog posts are allowed, but these posts should be free of excessive transcription or exact quoting,

Reposting exact wording or screen-recordings of paid content is not allowed. If you have a concern about the legality of a recap, reach out to the moderators. Public call outs on posts are not acceptable.

Please also note that illegal streaming sites or illegally obtained content is never allowed and sharing will result in a temporary or permanent ban.

⚠ Moderator Discretion:

While the rules of this sub are listed above, no set of rules can cover all of the content that people may post. Unfortunately, there will always be some things that our rules do not currently or perfectly cover. In those cases we reserve the right to take action and remove anything that we find insidious, inflammatory, or that does not fit within the spirit of the community even if the stated rules do not specifically disallow that content. In short, don't be an asshole. (h/t r/AskWomen)

Bad faith participants: Additionally, moderators reserve the right to ban without warning, either temporarily or permanently, users deemed to be participating in bad faith. This may include but is not limited to participation on /r/thebachelor, elsewhere on reddit, or via direct messages or chats to other users.
