Nick as the next bachelor!! People either love him or love to hate him! But they'd be sure to watch. Instead of the Farmer Bachelor, he could be the Polarizing Bachelor!

Nick as The Bachelor? Same as with MeAndi...don't think he'd make a good one. It should be Marquel.

But if Nick was F1 why would a storyboard producer be filming him now? So this is a foiler also? TPTB sure are wasting alot of money trying to foil this season for such a small percentage of people.

Yes and he said that he doesn't know why they were filming Nick. He also said that Josh proposes and MeAndi says yes to Josh and they are still together and 'happy'.

Hmmmm..where did i hear that before?? Oh yea, he said it about Brooks and Des!!! giggling

Clarification. Bennett was hired years ago (2009 or thereabouts) as a story producer. He is now like a number of others, a co-executive producer. Check IMDB.

He's exactly like Alycia Rossiter (whom we saw hugging Andi last episode), even above Elan, Peter, Cassie et al.

Doesn't shed much light on the Wisconsin visit, alas, but at least the "story" specialist angle can be dropped.

I just don't see why they would leave some of those things about him playing a game and talking about the next bachelor if they were considering him. Not that I believe that was Nicks intentions but the general audience won't believe that.

Im still asking the question, Chris Harrison, the mouthpiece for the show and storyline, has been defending Nick all season long, it puzzles me, why have they thrown Nick so badly under the bus while sticking up for him on the blog? Did they have him as a top candidate for TB along with Chris?

No, he didn't say they were happy that I recall. In fact, he was saying that Brooks wasn't ready to get married any time soon.

This makes me think they are preparing the story for Nick as next Bachelor. They really need to rebuild the image they destroyed on the show, and if so they will use Nicks adorable little sister front and center. Maybe they were interviewing her to prepare her for her segment. Nick did send a very cute picture of the both of them together yesterday.

Compare to how badly he made fun of Brooks in nearly every blog last season. His blogs really pissed me off with Des. He even made fun of the walk/jog/run thing when it was Des who came up with it!

Therefore, I don't listen to CH, but maybe this season I should listen to just the tone, pro or anti someone. He is the devil who will say what ever the evil MF in his ear tells him to.

Don't know if they are grooming Nick for the bachelor or not, but as far as edit goes and it not being possible. As others have mentioned, they threw Brad under the bus and then drove back and forth over him all during DeAnna's season. Yet two short bachelors after that (yes, pun intended here) we have Brad 2.0. If they could sell that they can try to sell anything.

Good to know--they can plan on Thanksgiving with Chantal and Brad and Christmas with Brooks and Des.

I think The bachelor spot isn't cut for Nick. Despite "cleaning up" the mess that they created with the edit (&spoilers), Nick is very much disliked on online community, social media still shreds him to pieces wherever you go, he isn't considered gorgeous/sexy by majority of women, there are people who find him uninteresting, even boring, because of his constant talking (you know, Nick's MO, when he cannot shut up, because he has to explain and analyze everything), ... so I doubt the producers would choose him, when it is already pretty clear he would not be accepted good. Beside it would clash with his statements through this season.
