So many people judge the show The Bachelor/Bachelorette. Now, I know at times it can seem a little ridiculous and all of that, here's the catch though, no one's forcing you to watch it! For once I would like to say that I'm watching it without getting backlash from other people. Who cares!
One of the best things about this show, is that there's so much drama. You can talk about it for days. While you're watching with your posse you can gossip about the show the whole time. None of this is happening in your personal life, you just get to sit and observe the madness. It's a good break from reality.
I love this show too, because sometimes (not all the time) there is happy endings. The Bachelor/Bachelorette and the contestant who wins have a fairy tale romance. No one else can really say that they fell in love on a reality TV show. Could you imagine having your first date with someone on a yacht, or flying in a helicopter? No? Me either (sigh).
If you haven't already guessed, I'm a romance junkie. My favorite type of movie is a rom-com and it will never change. This show is like a way better, more intense version of a rom-com. This is real people falling in love!! You get to see the raw emotions of everyone on the show and that is what makes the show so awesome. People say it's scripted, but I don't believe them because I simply don't want to.
This show also has major heartbreak. From the first week when contestants are sent home, to the final two people, it's hard to see the ones you love go home. I personally get very attached to the contestants and if the one I'm rooting for gets sent home, I am sent into a rage. But luckily, that doesn't happen too often considering I usually can spot the winner on the first night.
I like how there's also other opportunities for the contestants who didn't win to be the next Bachelor/Bachelorette or even go on Bachelor in Paradise to find their true love! So many new people and so many opportunities! How can you not love this show.
When it gets towards the end of the season and the dates become more extravagant, the girls/guys more in love, and the tension is building it's hard to rip your eyes off the screen. From the dates they do, to the clothes they wear, to what is going on between the two love birds it's hard to not want to watch it. Towards the end drama is usually pretty high as well, because everyone is supposedly ~iN lOvE~ with the Bachelor/Bachelorette. Moral of the story: watch the show and take a break from your hectic life (and be glad that you don't have to go to a rose ceremony).
