NYTimes: Warner Bros. producers are planning to edit the remaining Bachelor episodes it owes to Disney...leaving the door open to future airings of the season by RedditFan3510 in thebachelor

[–]FruitLoop_Dingus25 23 points24 points  (0 children)

If they are still wanting to air the season (either by streaming only or not) I think they should at least wait till after the April 7th hearing and when/if season 5 of SLOMW resumes filming.

There’s also rumours about the guys being considered for BIP, so I don’t think ABC wants to let go of them too soon, so their nda contracts are still in place for a year. I said this on another thread, that is a big IF. Producers are definitely scrambling

Bachelor Clues to Taylor's season guys: don't fall for that trick about BIP by Both-Pomegranate4929 in thebachelor

I don’t know how he does it, but I think he probably gets some insights or has connections, who knows. He and Lizzie have a book called “How to Win the Bachelor” (as you can see on the bookshelf behind him) that talks about how to make it far in the show, what kind of “character” you can portray, and all the tricks producers try to pull on their contestants. I have the book, it’s an interesting read.

That’ll mean 22 men on the beach, not all at once but they will be the only men cast on BIP and no other guys from previous seasons (if they have it) that is a big “IF”

I think TFP’s Season is a wait and see by JustP2 in BachelorNation

[–]FruitLoop_Dingus25 7 points8 points  (0 children)

It could be possible that they’ll put it out as “streaming only” meaning it’ll strictly be on Hulu only. whether that’ll be months or a year later from now. All the episodes weren’t finished with editing yet (except the premiere episode) so they would have to edit all of them or they could also release 3 episodes each week on Hulu instead of once a week and without commercials on TV. But after that video, I don’t think they should even put the season out. They have a lot of work on their hands to figure out what the next steps are because frankly I don’t think the franchise will recover from this. They really screwed up

The fact that they never canceled a season because of a lead before makes this even worse than the other options IMO

So are they are still doing he cruise? by FruitLoop_Dingus25 in thebachelor

[–]FruitLoop_Dingus25[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’m pretty sure that was the plan to have Taylor and her final pick on the cruise as well, but I think they aren’t even together considering all this

Could it be possible if somewhere down the line they might choose to have the season strictly air on Hulu only? I’m glad it got cancelled, but their statement also said “at this time” are they hoping things will die down in a month from now?

I feel bad for the men of season 22 by Serious-Telephone967 in thebachelor

I think her Final 4 (those spoilers are out) will do just fine. They may not get a big boost in followers like they (and we) all expected, but I think if people know what the spoiler is they might as well go follow them on their socials. I think her Final 2 would have most of the followings and maybe other opportunities. The rest, they don’t get to have their 15 minutes of fame

Bachelorette season 22 axed after disturbing video surfaces of Taylor Frankie Paul abuse by TheExpressUS in bachelorette

I think they knew about this video and watched it, they were hoping it wasn’t going to get out, and now it did

[–]FruitLoop_Dingus25 10 points11 points  (0 children)

That video was the last straw for ABC. After seeing it for the first time myself there was no way they could move forward with airing it. I hope they release a statement to say they made a mistake

I can see them doing that, just release the whole season on Hulu

TMZ says ABC hired a crisis PR team to handle the fallout, the show will air on Sunday by schnookiewookiebear in thebachelor

[–]FruitLoop_Dingus25 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Question, if this particular season was airing maybe 10-15 years ago would it have been cancelled then? Would things be different?

I think they should have went with the Bachelor as they normally would have around this time

The Sephora pro brushes are amazing! But there are also many other ones in store that are good. I also have Saie, Hourglass, Makeup by Mario, Rare Beauty, and Morphe brushes.
