I'm totally on board for a season of Arie. He's still hot. I'm sure we'll get some hot scenes of shoves and kisses against the nearest, available wall. He's got personality, can laugh at himself and makes for good tv IMO. Now I just need MF and co to give him a decent group of girls to help produce a somewhat decent season that's more tolerable and watchable than the last few, that I've quickly lost interest and tuned out of. Bring on a good, light hearted, funny, snarky season. *fingers crossed*

And personally, selfishly, I'm thrilled because my sanity can remain in tact from no season of Peter and the continued tit for tat that seems to have to work it way into any conversation that's had about him on the board. I'm more than thrilled to not have to suffer threw a season of any of the idiots (IMO) whose names from the last 3 seasons that were being mentioned this time around.

Yesssss! I'm exited for this season now!

I'm all for this laugh out loud

So happy it isn't Peter. Maybe Roberto next? cheeky

It's not Peter. People need to get over it. He would have been a HORRIBLE bachelor!!! Bachelor 22 - Arie Luyendyk Jr - General Discussion - *Sleuthing Spoilers* - Page 3 2292733854

Yes, I'm still in shock!
I didn't even go to sleep waiting to find out who it was gonna be.

Not gonna lie, I am not familiar with Arie but I am just happy they picked someone completely unrelated from that toxic pool of Ben H./Nick girls or JoJo/Rachel guys. Those people really made Bachelor Nation tiresome with their pettiness on SM and the franchise shows, IMO.

Honestly, I like that there's a lead with no ties to JoJo, Nick, or Rachel's seasons. The Garden, The Squad, The RoseBoys, or whatever the heck they're calling themselves today, I love that this snatches some of their relevancy, thanks. I won't have to see them popping up on this season of The Bachelor or fighting for a spotlight. Did not want. They needed to dig out of that circle of individuals, imo.

Let's infuse a whole new group of individuals in to this franchise. And also, I'm encouraged they picked someone older and ready to settle down. I didn't think they'd do that but seems smart, imo.

You nailed it! Amen and amen. Hope they all fade away!

Yay! I'm sooo happy it's Arie! I think the network/Disney/'whatever powers that be' put their foot down to MF and said clean up your act, move away from the recent raunchy idiots and their immature antics.

Newer viewers are accustomed to leads coming from a previous season, but that's a relatively recent pattern. When they started doing that, it made sense to bring in someone viewers already knew. But it set up a bad habit of contestants who only wanted to be the next lead. And led to the current incestuous condition too.

@makeover amen!

I liked these both so much I wish I could double bold them for more emphasis. I do. Smiley

Hopefully it will be an enjoyable season.

SO happy it's Arie. He is thoughtful, genuine, and intelligent, a great kisser, & aside from all of his fun with the ladies, it seems family is very important to him and I believe/hope he is sincerely ready to settle down.

I think its time to mature up the Bach franchise. (as much as they possibly can) The last few years has been awful 90% of the contestants are so social media conscious that it really takes the "meat and potatoes"of what this is supposed to be about.

Hopefully this can revive the franchise and stop making the contestants think they are "bigger" than they are. And more entertaining than they think they are.

The Bigger they think they are the harder they fall.

Arie I think will be humble and tone down the crazies. (contestants I mean not fans, they will always be crazy)..LOL

I just want to watch the again really enjoy the show. I will always watch. But I haven't really enjoyed the show as much as I used to.

Although I love the couples that come out of it.

This new Bachelor announcement is dope! Now contestants know they can't go on w/ the soul purpose of being the next Bachelor/Bachelorette.
