Which season of The Bachelorette was your personal favorite?

Katie Thurston’s season of The Bachelorette will mark the franchise’s 17th season, believe it or not. And following Katie’s season, we’ll get Michelle Young’s season in the fall. There isn’t a premiere date for that as of yet so stay tuned for updates on that front!

Given that a brand new season is about to start in a month, we’re taking a look back at each and every season of The Bachelorette. What seasons could we watch over and over again? What seasons would we rather forget?

Check out our rankings (worst to best) and don’t forget to share your own in the comments!

Now–let’s dive right into it!

#16: The Bachelorette Season 3: Jen Schefft

Winner: Jerry Ferris

Proposal?: Yes and No

This season, in a way, was monumental and one for the franchise’s history. Schefft’s season of The Bachelorette contained the first live final rose ceremony; however, it didn’t end so well for the final man standing at the end. There was a beautiful proposal, but it was quickly rejected. If something like that is making you uneasy or uncomfortable, then don’t embarrass the poor guy in front of a live audience on TV. Come on, girl.

Where is she now?: She hosts a podcast and lives her life as a wife to her also Chicago-based husband, Joe Waterman (2009). She has two children with him–her two gorgeous daughters Mae (11) and Charlotte (10).

#15: The Bachelorette Season 15: Hannah Brown

Winner: Jed Wyatt

Proposal?: Yes

Personally, I’m not really the biggest fan of Hannah Brown. Honestly, I could do without her in the franchise. I’ve got nothing against her, but I’m just not a fan of hers at all. To me, her season was long, drawn-out, and honestly felt like it dragged on for ages. Plus, her attitude, behaviors, and pool of men were a little lackluster for me.

Where is she now?: She still lives her life as Alabama Hannah with the occasional spotting of her alter ego, Hannah Beast. Brown also hangs out with other former franchise friends and pals, like Hannah Godwin. and Demi Burnett.
