#4: Bachelor in Paradise Season 6

We had Bachelor in Paradise’s first same-sex couple, but some complained it broke the rules of the show because it was the first time Paradise featured a non-Bachelor/Bachelorette contestant, in the form of Demi’s girlfriend, Kristian Haggerty.

Season 6 also gave us the gifts of John Paul Jones, the return of Bukowski, and some long-term couples in the form of Hannah Godwin and Dylan Barbour and Caelynn Miller-Keyes and Dean Unglert! Dean’s return to the beach, dressed all in black and mustache-less, was the best moment of the season.

The most recent season of Bachelor in Paradise is in the number four spot because, well it did have some great couples and hilarious moments, the formula of the show has just gotten old by now. Here’s hoping they throw in some curveballs next season!

#3:  Bachelor in Paradise Season 1

The first season of Bachelor in Paradise was great in many ways. Super low budget dates, arbitrary rules, and hilarious personalities in the form of Bachelor veterans Michelle Money, Chris Bukowski, and Clare Crawley (I’m sure we all remember the dramatic raccoon conversation).

However, it was quite rushed and confusing at times. Nobody really knew what to make of this show yet, and it was rather plotless at times.

By far, the best thing to come out of season 1 was this incredible reenactment of the fallout of contestant Michelle Kujawa and crew member Ryan Putz’s romance. It’s truly, truly amazing.
