You might be listening to the Day by day Roundup right here as a part of the Actuality Steve podcast. I’m your host, Actuality Steve. Thanks all for tuning in on this Monday. A really Bachelor Bachelorette targeted Monday podcast. And that’s as a result of we acquired some late breaking information on the Friday dump. Oh yeah, by the way in which, no bachelorette this season.
We are going to focus on all of that. Gen trans X Matt Rossi says, yeah, I didn’t pay for that journey to go see her in wherever it was, New Zealand. And likewise Mike Fleiss’s tweets from a pair weeks in the past that I introduced up on the time. They could maintain somewhat extra weight now. We’ll get to all that momentarily. Often when information breaks on Friday afternoon, which means somebody is attempting to cover one thing and attempting to not put a variety of consideration on it as a result of most information desks have left for the weekend on Friday.
So there’s not lots of people overlaying it. So whereas it was weird that this information even got here down, much more weird that it got here down on Friday night time, Anyway, I’m certain you’ve heard by now, ABC introduced that there can be no new season of The Bachelorette. Now, as a result of this present has a horrible time ever coping with transparency, we don’t essentially know what which means.
What we do know is that this. On a standard taking pictures schedule, the Bachelorette will begin filming proper when the Bachelorette season stops airing. Grant season, though we don’t know the episodes mapped out by means of the top of the 12 months, or by means of the top of this season, we all know it’s going to complete across the second or third week of March.
And often the top of that week is when the Bachelorette would begin filming. What we do know is, That’s not taking place now. They’ve introduced that there can be no new season of the bachelorette this summer season. Whereas it airs, usually, um, the bachelorette often airs in the summertime. ABC says they’re not going to comply with that sample and so they haven’t mentioned when it’s returning.
They’ve mentioned it’s not canceled. The explanation we don’t know but, we’ll get into these in somewhat bit, however what we do know is we’ve at all times recognized. And it’s wonderful as a result of I acquired so many messages despatched to me. Why did this occur? Does this imply they’re bringing again Bachelor in Paradise? It’s like, you understand, I suppose lots of people don’t take note of the information or they will’t hear day by day However we’ve recognized Bachelor in Paradise is coming again this summer season since final 12 months.
I imply they introduced it I believe final September we knew it was returning this summer season So from every little thing that I’ve heard and what’s humorous is on Friday afternoon About, I don’t know, six or eight hours earlier than this information broke, I used to be instructed that folks had been listening to Bachelor in Paradise was going to be filmed in Might.
And I’m like, properly, that’s sort of bizarre as a result of The Bachelorette is filmed in Might or remains to be filming in Might. Picks up, begins filming in March. And often goes by means of in regards to the first week or week and a half of Might. So why would you movie Bachelor in Paradise so shut? And I used to be identical to, possibly they only misheard.
Possibly it’s not, possibly it was finish of Might. It was going to choose up and begin filming. After which there’s information breaks on Friday night time that the Bachelorette isn’t going to, isn’t going to be round not less than in the summertime. And I’m like, okay, properly now that is smart of why I heard eight hours in the past, Bachelorette’s filming.
All proper. Bachelor in Paradise is filming finish of April, starting of Might is what I heard. So I used to be like, okay, so now that is smart. We all know we’re getting bachelor in paradise this summer season. It simply means one much less group of individuals to select from as an alternative of whoever this bachelorette was going to be as an alternative of her males.
Now we simply have grants, girls going again to final 12 months, charities, males, and going again to final 12 months within the bachelor season, Joey’s girls. In order that’s the place a majority of your contestants are going to be from. Look, simply based mostly on Jen’s. After the ultimate rose, we all know that Jonathan goes to be on Bachelor in Paradise.
We all know that Hakeem goes to be on Bachelor in Paradise. And I gotta imagine Jeremy goes to be on Bachelor in Paradise. Assuming he’s single within the subsequent couple months earlier than they go movie. Which I noticed Jeremy placing up exercise movies on his Instagram story yesterday. So I’m not saying he’s not allowed to work out, but when he is aware of he’s taking place to paradise, sure, somewhat extra incentive to hit the health club and never even going over on the highest of my head, who might be the opposite folks.
We’re not going to take a seat right here and break down who’s going to get forged. Trigger we don’t know. And the opposite factor is we all know what they’ve accomplished in previous seasons and it involves paradise and casting. You aren’t formally a bachelor in paradise forged member. Actually till you stroll down the steps, you may signal a contract, you may undergo all of your testing, you may be flown out to Mexico or wherever it could be, but it surely doesn’t imply you’re on the present till you stroll down as a result of we all know there have been contestants who had been flown out to Mexico and sat in a lodge for 2 weeks and simply by no means introduced all the way down to the seashore as a result of manufacturing couldn’t consider a storyline to provide them.
It’s occurred earlier than, it’ll occur once more. So. Simply since you may hear someone’s taking place there doesn’t imply they are going to. Now, for folks like Jonathan and Hakeem and, you understand, if somebody like Maria desires to do Paradise, after all she’s gonna get on and people guys are gonna get on. I’m simply saying for folks on the perimeter which are like, they had been on possibly three or 4 episodes, they weren’t actually large on their Bachelor or Bachelorette season, yeah, there’s a chance that they’re not getting on even when they’re flown to Mexico.
So we did discuss Mexico. I say Mexico as a result of that’s the place it was filmed for the primary, what, eight, 9 seasons. We don’t know the place it’s filming subsequent season as a result of it’s not being filmed in Sayulita the place that they had filmed all the opposite ones as a result of that property was offered and so they have simply chosen to not renew their contract with Bachelor Nation.
So if I hear something, I’ll let you understand on the place it’s being filmed. Possibly it’s nonetheless being filmed in Mexico and so they’re simply going to decide on a special resort or possibly they’re going to do one thing utterly totally different someplace else. No one is aware of but. The place they’re filming, not less than no person’s reported but the place they’re filming.
And if I hear something, uh, I’ll definitely let you understand on that. One query that lots of people have is, properly, when was this determined? And from every little thing that I’ve heard, it was determined very just lately. Now, once we get to Mike Fleiss’s tweets, I’ll focus on what very just lately even means and what it may imply.
We’ve watched Grant’s season now for 2 episodes. Throughout each of the primary two episodes of Grant’s season, they’ve had commercials working. Straight out of a break saying, if you wish to apply for the bachelorette, go right here, they wouldn’t do this within the first two episodes. In the event that they knew for certain, they had been placing the present on pause.
You may say like, properly, there, are you doing it for future seasons? No, they might have simply not run that proper now as a result of there’s no cause to, if you understand, you’re not working it. And it’s most likely a great guess. They’re not working it in 2025 as a result of a variety of it doesn’t make sense to go bachelor. Let’s do.
Bachelor in paradise. And we do know, and not less than I do know for certain, we’ve talked about this on the podcast, they’re doing one other golden bachelor this 12 months and going again to season two of the golden bachelor. So I don’t assume you’ll go bachelor bachelor in paradise, golden bachelor, after which run bachelorette.
What subsequent later this 12 months, October by means of December, since you’d have to decide on a special night time. Trigger Monday night time soccer, you’ll have too many dates the place Monday night time soccer is working a sport on ABC on Monday nights, and the present must transfer it to a special night time and their flagship reveals, their two largest reveals are bachelor and bachelorette rankings smart.
These aren’t going to get moved. They’ll transfer golden bachelor to a special night time. They’ll transfer golden bachelorette to a special night time. We’ve seen them transfer bachelor in paradise to totally different nights. They’re not transferring bachelor or bachelorette off Monday nights. It’s simply not going to occur until I believe didn’t Michelle season have a pair wonky dates, however you bought to recollect Michelle season was the second bachelorette season of that exact calendar 12 months, 2021.
So I’m simply speaking a couple of one bachelorette. Calendar 12 months season is just not getting moved off of Monday nights. So I, my guess is it’s not canceled. I do know everyone thinks it could be canceled due to rankings or no matter. I believe they’re simply trying to do a reset and simply occupied with what they’re going to do sooner or later.
However I don’t assume it’s canceled. I do assume what the press launch mentioned is correct. It was paused and it is going to be introduced again most likely in 2026. I simply don’t see them bringing it again afterward this 12 months. What could be the purpose of pausing it six months? There’s no have to. So that’s the place we’re at with.
The logistics of it by way of timing, not essentially location. So possibly I shouldn’t have mentioned the phrase logistics. There’s rather a lot to additionally break down right here. And I need to get to that in a second.
