Or the "Shawn and Nick" show as it could be called.

I just saw that  guess we're in for more morning-after scenes now too, Kait just talked about how awkward it was to film and she was the guinea pig for it, but sex and post-sex and everything in between sex sells. What a novelty.

Correction...as Nick put it, "The Shawn Hates Nick Show".  


And some still think that a whole season of Nick plus a throng of crazy women wouldn't be good ratings TV?

It would be ratings gold and Bachelor gold The girls would be competing with each other for Nick rather than Nick having to compete with guys.

Purely from a business perspective, why would MF & Millsy want to change the formula? This is a serious question.

^^Exactly Jojo.

I think it's going to depend on future Bachelorettes. I don't see this selling as well on the Bachelor. The summer season seems to be different because there's not nearly as much competition.

The morning-after scene was all sorts of adorable, so I don't necessarily mind if they do more of them. And as crazy as this season is, good to see that the ratings are up overall, since I still like Kaitlyn (even if I'm not a fan of her spoiled F1).

In other social media observations (not sure if these were pointed out), at least all parties involved in the "Shawn Hates Nick Show" are starting to making fun of it. Kaitlyn called Shawn and Nick "the new JJ and Clint" on twitter. Nick just retweeted someone who said they hoped the feud ended in a Lip Sync Battle. And even Shawn made a joke in response to someone who called him the Hot Crazy Scale Matrix. Maybe by ATFR, they can all relax a little bit, since everything got so ridiculous and over the top?

I swear at this point the only way it could get funnier/more insane is if Nick and Shawn end one of these fights by making out with each other .

I actually thought it was a super cute scene too! I think she feels it's so awkward and bizarre because she's looking at it in retrospect, engaged to someone else.

I hope everyone is thinking this is all a joke at this point too and atfr is peaceful(ish). I'll give credit to both Shawn and Kait for this because imo Nick would like nothing more than for them to react to his passive aggressive sm crap, but luckily, they haven't and I think it diffuses the situation unlike last year where they engaged him so much and it got out of hand. Jmo.

Yes I am hopeful for a drama- free ATFR. Now that would be shocking!

No, that would be refreshing
