Since The Golden Bachelor premiered on September 28, the highly-anticipated senior Bachelor spinoff has warmed hearts, restored faith in late-in-life love stories, and set record ratings with more than 11 million Week 1 viewers across linear and streaming platforms. The series is thriving and helping revive a franchise that, just last year, longtime fans described to Decider as “stale and tired.” But the show’s impact within the franchise isn’t all positive…
The Golden Bachelor is so good that it’s making the case for canceling Bachelor in Paradise, the franchise’s least structured spinoff that welcomes former Bachelor and Bachelorette alum to a beach in Mexico for another shot at finding love.
Now on its ninth season, Paradise once served as a lighthearted, low-stakes filler show in between seasons of The Bachelorette and The Bachelor. Episodes were cherished as mindless escapes full of petty drama, goofiness, and hot hookups that people typically crave from reality TV dating shows. But once fans got a taste of The Golden Bachelor‘s classy, heartwarming, wholesome foundation, traveling back to Paradise gave them emotional whiplash.
