It might seem as though I’ve lived under a rock for the past 21 seasons, but I never understood the hype until now. Every Monday night I would see my Twitter feed being consumed with live tweets by guys and girls alike sharing their opinions on the current season of “The Bachelor,” and I finally decided to see what it was all about. Now I’m no expert, and I still don’t know what the hell “Bachelor in Paradise” is, and why so many people have continually made this show a success, but here are some reactions to watching the episodes thus far.
The show starts off with 30 contestants and one bachelor.
That is 30 GIRLS AND ONE GUY! Who would do that to themselves?

They all have to wait to be given a rose to know that they’re going to be kept around.
That is just cruel.
Dates

When I found out that not only were there individual dates, but also group dates and 2-on-1’s
I was like oh heeeeeell no
The friendships and rivalries

I could understand the rivalries, but the friendships?
YOU’RE ALL DATING THE SAME GUY; he’s going to choose her over you.
Serious question, are they always hammered?

They always have a drink in hand, and Corrine was notably shoving food in her mouth like I would after a Friday night out.

Screw Nick, Corrine is the star of this season. One may argue that she’s bat-shit crazy, but from her naps, cheesy pasta and her nanny (yes, she’s 24 and has a nanny), Corrine stole the show.
Seriously, I could do an entire review on just her.
