I KNEW this show would get creamed in ratings in here because, having just turned 70 AND having the audacity to be a Boomer, well, it's a double social no-no whammy! Even though, without us, the people bashing us Boomers wouldn't BE HERE to bash us! I loved the first episode. I loved seeing the beautiful older women and the handsome 71 year old guy at the center. We watch these shows (Bachelor Nation) because we enjoy a running discussion of mockery. But this was different because FINALLY, a network looked at us, not as old and useless, but beautiful and deserving of love, too!!!! I guarantee my review will get blasted here. I'm used to it because, well, it seems to me the only exception on the WOKE menu is the elderly! Why? I honestly don't know unless the youngsters are afraid to look at their own futures because they all will get here if they are lucky!!

So, I LOVED The Golden Bachelor and have new respect for ABC for having the guts to approach their formula with an older audience! I thought the women were absolutely beautiful and honestly? If I closed my eyes, they acted JUST LIKE their younger counterparts. I took away a star for having guts, but only for an hour. Definitely needed two hours even if just for the first show!

Highly recommend this version to ALL ages. You might learn we aren't, in our hearts and personalities, that much different from the youngsters they usually showcase! Three cheers for ABC. Now, WATCH IT!!! Or it will be a one season wonder!!
