Chris Harrison hosts this first-time live premiere event with a studio audience and past fan favorites from The Bachelor and Bachelorette series

This is probably why Nick Viall started following several producers a few weeks back which I posted about previously on his fan forum thread: Lindsay Liles, Cassie Scalettar, Adam Mansfield, and Marco Franzitta. Around that same time he started following Jimmy Kimmel also.  Since Jimmy is going to appear on The Bachelor this season that is another clue.  I would put money on Nick Viall being part of that first live episode.



Dear GA, please feel free to move this if it is not in the correct place.  I did post in Nick's thread also, but thought others might be interested as well.  Thank you.

Good... another reason to skip the live premiere and watch it in fast forward the next day... clap3

No Sophie, that is more reason to watch!
:happydance:

The likelihood I will watch the premier is quickly diminishing.

It does seem early however JPG must have completed filming around the same time right? Thanks for checking San, I didn't even think of that!

Yep. No problem! Maybe they will release them tomorrow since it's a Wednesday. I remember them releasing them on Wednesdays in the past. Fingers crossed!

I want to see who their definition of fan favourites are.

Glad to hear it GA.  I think I might be able to sleuth out a few more of those "fan favorites".

I just looked and it looks like Nick also recently started to follow random people from the franchise such as, Rachel Truehart, Nick Peterson, Blakely Shea, Jenna Burke, Elyse Myers and a few others around the same time he followed those producers/handlers. It could be just that he found a bunch of these people around the same time and decided to follow them. Who knows. He could be there though.

IMO, the live premiere thing is just dumb and did I read another article correctly that it's going to be 3 hours long? For crying out loud.

Those so-called 'fan favs'...possible BIP cast?

Drew Kenney (also an F2) is another one he started following at that time who definitely qualifies as a fan favorite, at least in my book.  I think he will be one of the "fan favorites" also.  Hope so.

Ash, these could be BIP2 contestants, like atem suggested. NickChicks (of which I am one) like to think that he would run screaming from the hills before he would be a contestant on anything Bach again, but it does make you wonder when he just did a ChiTown appearance with Chris Bukowski, Christy Hansen, and Jaclyn Swartz. 2 past BIP contestants and 2 future BIP2 contestants? Junk food for thought.

could this live show and fan favorites thing be a platform to see who has the most interest to put onto another season of BIP?

^ Certainly could be.


I don't think the article states how many past contestants are actually going, just that it will be some fan favorites, so it's difficult to say. I'm just personally thinking it's going to be the usual type of thing. If they want to go, I'm sure Catherine and Sean will be there since it will be close to their 1 year anniversary so they have that to talk about. I would bet Josh and Andi would be there since we're coming off their season and probably the same goes for Marcus and Lacy and Cody and Michelle since they're all still together it will look good and also considering Josh, Marcus and Cody were friends with Chris. That in itself is technically past contestants of the bachelor and the bachelorette, but who knows what they'll do.
