Bachelor in Paradise: 4 reasons why this is the worst season ever

facebooktwitterreddit

Bachelor in Paradise is a hot mess this season thanks to a self-absorbed cast and some barely believable showmances.

When the news broke earlier this summer that Bachelor in Paradise might be canceled, fans were outraged. After all, ABC’s Bachelor spinoff is a delicious mix of drama and romance, with a side of humor. Once the network announced the show would go on, everyone breathed a sigh of relief.

Now we’re wondering if canceling the show would have been a better option. Our recent Twitter poll (below) shows we’re not alone when it comes to being totally disappointing in the sh*t-show known as Bachelor in Paradise season 4. Heck, the two-week production hiatus was more exciting than the season itself. While you may not agree, here are four reasons why this is the worst season ever.

Chris Harrison

We barely saw Chris during Rachel’s season of the Bachelorette. He was a total part-timer. And we fully expected him to ghost us on Bachelor in Paradise. Instead, he’s been hanging around the beachfront set like a protective parent.

Enough with the phony discussions/lectures about Corinne and DeMario. The hookups and drinking have been happening since the Bachelor Pad days. We get it — ABC has to cover their butts to make sure everyone know they don’t approve of sexual misconduct. Yet the whole show is about hookups. Go put your robe on and have a mimosa, Chris.

Corinne and DeMario

As if we haven’t heard enough about Corinne and DeMario’s romp in the pool, it’s been rehashed over and over (and over) again.

Both Corinne and DeMario had a sit-down with Papa Chris Harrison and cried about the night they thought they were filming an amateur porn movie. Alright, that’s harsh. But seriously, haven’t we talked about this topic enough?

And after they whined about how hard it was, Corinne and DeMario were spotted hanging out together in Los Angeles.

The whole things smells like it was a set-up to create drama. Why? Because this season is so damned boring.

No romance, all bromance

The first few episodes were all about the guys hugging it out and frolicking in the ocean. What is this? Frat Party in Paradise? Yuck.

I high-fived my dog when Iggy went home. He was obnoxious and thought (for a minute) he was a Hollywood A-lister. And that goes for most (not all) of Rachel’s guys.

Oh, and I did double back flip when Alex was eliminated. He’s Iggy 2.0.

The entire cast is a hot mess

I’m  looking forward to the Bachelor Winter Games in February. Perhaps some competition between couples, similar to the Bachelor Pad competitions, would be fun to watch.

For now, we get to watch a bunch of Bachelor and Bachelorette castoffs lay around on giant beach beds with people they hooked up with prior to the show.

Robby admitted he had a fling with Sarah during a recent interview with the Bachelor Insider

And Sarah also (per Reality Steve) hooked up with Adam before filming started.

Then, during the hiatus, Raven and Adam

hooked up with

spent time together in Dallas.

Then there’s Amanda, who is totally into Robby …  who was totally into Raven until he realized she didn’t like him.

Raise your hand if you believe Amanda and Robby’s relationship is a business deal. After all, they are both “social media influencers.

And don’t even get me started about the Dean/Kristina/DLo love triangle.

And there’s even more nonsense to come, including Daniel Maguire (BiP Season 30) heading to the Fantasy Suite with Lacey.

If you watched him on Million Dollar Matchmaker, you’ll know he’s only interested in dating himself. In a recent Instagram Live video, Daniel admitted he never slept with Lacey, so we’re not sure what they did in the fantasy suite. Maybe he just worked out and she watched. Who knows.

Oh, and Taylor and Derek get engaged on the reunion show. Maybe because they needed a happy ending to the worst season ever?
