IMO he either has someone managing it or he's been allowed SM access like Nick was on Kaitlyn's season.

To me the SM postings are not enough to count him out yet.

i wonder about the same thing laugh out loud

i really think its the latter though..producers want Becca to keep him until F3*, the coveted spot for next lead. I have guessed since pre-season, he seems like a great contender for MF's dream to bring back an Athlete (kinda? giggling

) as next TB. As far as Tia goes,,,i guess GF can always pull a returnee on his season... laugh out loud

...JMO

* i do think Garrett and Blake/Jason are Becca's top 2, so that would also be in line with her agreement to string Colton along to the F3 assuming he is the producers's pick.

all IMO

I agree that his social media is being handled by him or PR during this time. I also think he is easily going to make F3 due to branding, the next TB etc.

I too think he is going to be the next Bachelor. Sigh.

I don't think Colton's foundation is concerned about keeping him relevant. I think they are simply posting the foundation's achievements.

Oh for the love of Pete! If Colton makes it to F4, it doesn't automatically mean that he'll be the next Bachelor. **IMO** no no

One should also consider the type of edit that he'll get as well. According to RS, he was the least liked guy in the house, and I think that'll probably end up translating over to the small screen as well. Once the whole 'Colton/Tia scandal' comes to light, people are going to hate his guts. It's probably going to end up being another 'Corrine' type of situation where he only makes F4 just for drama purposes (IF it happens, which it hasn't yet). Plus, I can also see people totally dragging Becca for keeping him as long as she did. I see him being on BIP and hooking up with Tia again but not as the next lead. JMO.

I'll admit, I'm totally confused about Colton's journey and how he's landed in the final group. Must have been some acting job or some story Tia/Colton put together. But what MF wants, he typically gets for those not named "Peter". In short, if MF wants Colton as next lead, Colton will be the next bachelor. Elan will produce the season to get whatever response TPTB desire.

Totally, totally agree.

I agree with you but this is hypothetical depending on what type of edit he gets. The Tia drama might not even been shown or mentioned. They could choose not to air it to save time or for another reason. Even though we know about the drama that doesn’t mean that is what is going to come across on screen. It also could air on the show but we just don’t know for sure of how it will play out on screen until we see it.

Honestly, JPG was the last bachelor I liked, so Colton would be no better or worse than the last four producer puppets to play the lead. I doubt I would watch Colton, but honestly, perhaps watching him on Becca's season I might find him funny or interesting and chose to watch.

Yeah the contacting Tia before is slimy on both him and Tia's part, but him sticking around longer than guys who yell at each other or body shame each other, etc, doesn't make me sad. I also don't care if Becca kept him around to get more concessions on time with the ones who matter to her more. Good for her, if TPTB want to play games, I will be happy if Becca played back. JMO.
