The Bachelor

I wish the contestants would stop saying « like » every three words. It's so annoying. I used to like the show but now, every contestant say that word and it seems they don't have any other word to say. I really think I'm going to stop watching it. Anyway even if I know everything is fake, the producers should tell the participants to use a most sophisticated vocabulary.

I'm honestly baffled that this show lasted this long. We all know that reality tv is scripted, and not really reality at all. Dating multiple women at once and finding instant love is so far fetched it's not even funny. Most of the relationships don't last. It is just pure garbage.

Is the dating scene REALLY this BAD that one must resort to competing on a 'reality television show' in order to find that 'perfect match'?

Apparently so, according to ABC's "THE BACHELOR", an embarrassing and degrading 'entertainment' show where 15 single women are courted by 'Alex', a 31 year-old handsome, professional successful bachelor who must decide which lady (if at all) he prefers to be his wedded bride.

While FOX already conquered the smutty side of this premise with the exploitative and ground-breaking "WHO WANTS TO MARRY A MILLIONAIRE" which ended in complete disaster (it was found out later that the groom had a violent domestic history - the wife filed for an annulment less than a few days later after the special aired on television), "THE BACHELOR" is a more mature approach to basically the same deal. In this case, Alex is not a millionaire, but he is professionally secure.

In reality, with looks combined, Alex would make the perfect catch for a single woman. As it yet goes to show that television still cannot grasp the meaning of the word 'reality', the fifteen women chosen to compete in this adventure are all young attractive in-shape ladies. If this was in fact a 'reality' show, all the women would be of different body shapes and sizes, ages and some may even be considered unattractive to general society. All the women featured in "THE BACHELOR" are between the ages of 20-30 and appear to be as man-hungry as those who would attend a male strip-joint.

I find it very hard to believe that all these women have trouble finding a reasonable date in 'the real world' that they had to resort to appearing on this television show in hopes of match-making with Mr. Alex. In this day and age, if life appears to be this terrible and trite for these women, "THE BACHELOR" really makes my life seem hopeless and meaningless.

"THE BACHELOR" is a show one can do without watching. It can be considered a guilty pleasure, but I find this kind of 'reality' rather sickening.

Whoever Alex decides to marry, I hope we get to see the spin-off, "THE DIVORCE". Now that would be true reality.

Dear god. Do these women not have an ounce of self-esteem or pride? I am watching Ari's season and I just want to scream at how these women (some literally crazy ones) put themselves through this for a guy just like any other guy. Oh, and lastly is the list of Latinas who sign up so thin or poor that you have the ONE moronic one who is beyond embarrassing to watch? No wonder this show is rated so low. Skip it.

The girls on this show are shallow, superficial, plastic, bimbos who are all looks and no personality. Yes they are attractive, but that's about it and the attraction disapears very quickly once they open they're mouths and start talking. This is why they have to resort to going on a reality show to find a man. Same with the bachelor They're usually just some spoiled punk who was born with a silverspoon in his mouth who is just as shallow Why can't he find a girl the normal way? gimme a break These girls deserve to be crushed when the bachelor takes them off the show serves them right they've had their 15 minutes of fame. If there is nothing else on TV don't watch this just pop in a video or read a book just stay away from this garbage
