I think he's one of the most unappealing Bachelors this show has had, but for the first one, Alex.

Because I always view this whole thing as a business first and foremost, and the producers, ABC, the whole bunch of them, doing this for the sole purpose of making profit, I think based on the options available right now, Nick makes A LOT of sense.

For that matter, I don't think this is a spur of the moment, Luke turned them down decision. This looks to me like something that has been in the works since they sent him to paradise. His tweets, the whole doing 5,000,000 interviews, promoting the sister shows...it all makes sense now.

Well Well well.... The first time I am truly Shocked. This really is the most shocking announcement ever.

I did not see this coming in a million years. Just when you think you think you have this franchise figured out...... BAM!!!!. They throw the biggest curve ball at you. Never say Never in this show.

Congrats to Nick... I will enjoy this season. This is not a wash and repeat season.

Congrats Fleiss... you got me....

Well one things for sure they don't need Sean and Ben to tell him how to do it. Fourth time's a charm?

And, I've got to think this will make Josh's head explode!!!  

Josh will hate this.

But.... will he top five and a half?

Bingo. It was obviously a set up from the start. Nick went on the BIP to get a certain edit.

I hope there are some brave women that leave. But, this show has too much pull for the shilling opportunities.

Yea I'm thinking Luke turned them down imo no other explanation

This time, they will talk about it on national TV, unlike Bob's season.

I just laughed out loud at how Josh must be reacting right now. He went into Andi's season wanting to be the Bachelor but instead got engaged, Nick was the villain, Nick made a fool of himself getting rejected for a second time, Josh came out of the breakup with Andi looking like the better person... then they both go on BIP and suddenly Nick is charming, likable, and gets to be the Bachelor, and Josh comes out looking like a raging sociopath with a Hulk-like temper. Good old karma.

As much as I wished for this time on BIP to be his last, I think he's entertaining. Whether he finds "the one" or not, this season will not be boring. IMO

I wonder who the returnee will be on this season.
