The Bachelor finale is here, and we’ll finally find out just what Jesse Palmer means when he says something happens that “you’re never going to see it coming.”
Could this be a bit of an exaggeration? If you’re a longtime viewer of the franchise, you know the show often makes these kinds of grand claims. However, based on what I know, something is going to happen that hasn’t played out before in any season.
Now, is it so groundbreaking that we’re going to be talking about it for years to come? Eh, hard to say. Even if you’ve read the spoilers, half the fun is watching everything play out on screen. The teaser trailer (which can be viewed below) makes us think that Joey will be leaving alone, but I highly doubt it. Personally, I think he’s engaged, but whether or not he chose the right woman and their relationship can go the distance is anyone’s guess.
What I do know is that I’ll be talking with Joey on Tuesday—whether or not he’s accompanied by the recipient of his final rose (if there is one)—so I look forward to sharing that with you later in the day. I didn’t really get into this season until the last few episodes (I still stand by my previous thoughts that this franchise needs to get away from contestants in their 20s), but Joey is one of the better Bachelors we’ve had in a while.
I also expect that on Monday night we’ll find out who the next Bachelorette is going to be, since filming typically starts in mid-to-late March. There’s plenty of worthy and interesting candidates from Joey’s season, including Maria, who got quite a reception at last Monday’s Women Tell All.
On that note, check out the rest of the guide for all the other offerings this week, and I’ll see you back here next Sunday.
