    Serves them right

    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

    Vocabulary

    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.

    Not believable

    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.

    Good looking, shallow and tacky

    My girlfriend - addicted to American soap operas - wanted to watch this, so I thought maybe I should too. The concept is simple: get a bunch of attractive and neurotic young women who want to compete for the affections of some adonis and take them on one-on-ones with Mr. God's Gift to Women while the camera follows them and lets the viewer observe all the interesting and melodramatic moments (well most of them - we don't get to witness the sex). It creates a lot of questions - for example, why would women want to enter a show like this in the first place? What do they think is in it for them and what is really in it for them? It all looks good visually - the producers have seen to that - but it is also tacky, shallow and exploitative. It speaks a lot about America.

    Who Cares

    Is the dating scene really that bad?? Are these women trying to tell me that they can't find a decent guy without the help of a "reality" show?? So this bachelor can't find a decent woman? Give me a break!! I can't figure out why pathetic shows like these get such good ratings. I hope these people enjoy their 15 minutes of fame. I could care less if he picks any of them, and it's too bad more of the viewing public doesn't feel the same way.
