Andi Dorfman - The Bachelorette 10 - Discussion

I would like to see them go from 25 to 15 after the first night, as they did early in the franchise. 
Then go from 15-12, 12-9, 9-6, 6-4. 
Once you get to the F4, they don't have to immed go to the HTD. They could focus an episode or 2 on giving each of the F4 a 1:1 each of those episodes, so the audience and the main could get to know them better. Then continue with the HTD. 
Cut the time frame from 2 hours to 90 minutes or even an hour for certain episodes. Utilize more bloopers. Get rid of the WTN/MTN.

See they need new blood to bring some new and exciting changes. One thing I hate is showing these people as one sided. Very few people is one sided and the amount of time they show us on dates we can't really see who they are. Also it seems every season people say the same thing like it's a script.

Kasha, I like your ideas especially the bloopers. Look how everyone laughed about the gull pooping on Josh.

I don't believe she's necessarily trying for a career in the biz because she seems to have been happy with her job. I guess we'll have to see.

Taking leave until December is a fairly sure sign she is engaged.  If she wasn't there wouldn't be extended "duties" related the show because she wouldn't be marketable.  August would cover most of the media blitz so it has to be something media driven or a quick marriage to plan.

Another possibility is a #livelikeEric venture.

I don't think they would get married this soon anyway. Remember, we have Chris and Des' wedding coming up first. (*disclaimer, no I have not seen a date, nor do I have any insider info, just realize they are "next" in the wedding pipeline.)

Yeah, Chris and Des coming up wedding may not happen just as Ali and Roberto coming up wedding never happen.

Interesting. Are you thinking that Chris and Des are having problems and will break up?

I thought so which is why I was confused. Thanks for confirming!

Here's what Sharleen said - I think her comments mirror Kasha's suggestions with which I agree:

"I think this show needs to evolve with its audience. We can tell. Just eliminate more people early on and develop more in-depth relationships with the fewer men remaining. We want to watch real chemistry, not the forced or phoned-in variety."

That's exact what bachelor Canada did. It was wonderful.

I love the term "evolve with the audience". 
Thanks for bringing that over. 
This is what I see the real problem--the show is stagnant. And I guess that's ok if it works. $$. But ratings each season are decreasing--so why not change it up? 
Obviously, I like the show otherwise I would not have stuck with it all these seasons, but ---growing is good.

I agree also. I do not think they should give it a major overhauling, or else it may not even seem like The Bachelor, but changing some things here and there would really help perk it up a bit. I think getting rid of more guys in the beginning is a great idea.

I loved it back in the day when they cut from25-15 the first night..Lord knows the lead probably would be happy with that # heck let's face it I bet they probably have 10 most that they can tolerate..and really like 4/6 at the most!

Throw out some of these crap group dates amd have a few dates with maybe 3/4 people so the lead can get to know the people more!
