I didn’t see it, don’t ask me to find out what happened.
But “The Bachelor” fell to the lowest rating this season and the second lowest of all time on Monday night with “The Women Tell All”.
This is the 12th year of “The Bachelor” and the 25th “season”. It was also a total disaster on the part of the series, with a racism scandal that sank the entire company.
Matt James is the first black bachelor and there is nothing wrong with him. But his apathetic approach to competitors was followed by the choice of a white woman who revealed she had a racist past.
Presenter Chris Harrison was interviewed by former Bachelorette Rachel Lindsay, and the results were explosive. Harrison was replaced at the final show, which is live, by a former NFL player who is black. Then Lindsay suffered a setback for saying all the right things and announced that he was disassociating from the franchise. Could things have gone more wrong?
The Monday night episode scored just 4.69 million viewers and fell on the main show as well. The show lost about 800,000 viewers in the previous week. That is steep! ABC and production must be concerned, as they really ruined their small business. I doubt Chris Harrison will come back from this.
