'Greatest Seasons Ever: Ali Fedotowsky'

In the second half of the first “Love Is Blind” S9 drop, our very motley crew of Denver health nuts, biohackers, and homophobes seduce each other with dirty talk and promises of Christian babies and white houses with red doors. They also make their final pod choices, get engaged, and head off to Baja for a very sexy – and VERY drunk – honeymoon. One couple crumbles before the romantic vacay even begins, but it’s down in Mexico that the cracks in some of these newly-minted relationships really begin to show.

“Love Is Blind” season 9 is here, baby! The pods are open and they’re full of greater-Denver-area weirdos. This season is pure chaos. We’ve got love triangles, love squares and love chains. We’ve got pod GHOSTING. And we’ve got… a lot to say. There was so much content to dive into that we decided to split this recap into two parts! This one will cover episodes 1-3 and you’ll have to head to part 2 for episodes 4-6.

Earlier this year, we put on a 10-year anniversary show in New York to celebrate a decade of “Bachelor” commentary. And to properly mark this milestone, we rewatched the ENTIRE first season we recapped: season 11, which starred Bachelor Nation icon Kaitlyn Bristowe. In this live taping, we revisited all of the colorful villains and jaw-dropping dramatic scenes from this banger of a season. Sharleen Joynt and Andy Levine, the cohosts of Dear Shandy, joined us onstage to offer live reactions and tell us about the story behind their moments of screen time during a key moment of Kaitlyn’s journey.

When Mel Owens arrived at the Bachelor Mansion on night one of season 2 of “Golden Bachelor,” he knew the task at hand: To apologize to the 20+ gorgeous, accomplished, interesting women who were there to date him – a man who said a bunch of dumb shit on a podcast. The first half of his premiere was spent doing just that, and then we got to move on to the real stars of the season: the ladies… and Freddie Freeman of the Los Angeles Dodgers.

Season 2 of “The Golden Bachelor” is kicking off next week, and ABC has dropped those cast bios! The fact that 66-year-old lead Mel Owens has said he doesn’t want to date women over 60 (i.e. everyone in the show’s typical age range) has cast a pall over the proceedings, but who could be mad about meeting these 23 vibrant, multifaceted, brilliant women? Not us! We dig into the bios and discover a cast full of midlife health and fashion influencers, cosmetic dentists, and government workers – whom ABC seems particularly eager to assure us are all addicted to Pilates, long-distance running, and dance.

This week, Bachelor Nation was rocked by an unprecedented announcement: the next Bachelor would actually be a Bachelorette, and that Bachelorette would be… “Secret Lives of Mormon Wives” star Taylor Frankie Paul. The MomTok founding mother and gossip magnet is already massively famous, and comes with an unusual reputation and background for a “Bachelorette” leading lady, so naturally we – and everyone we know – are still processing! In this episode, we dive into who Taylor Frankie Paul is as a cultural figure, her history of “soft swinging” and domestic violence arrest, what this choice says about our cultural/political moment, and what we can expect from her upcoming season.

The ‘Bachelor in Paradise’ season 10 reunion dropped last week – and then it dropped again, and then it dropped a third and final time. We listened to the two-part podcast reunion, and then watched the YouTube video edit that finally came out this weekend, so we could take in every bit of the room tone, cross talk, and confusing circular arguments about tweets that no one bothered to read or even explain. In the midst of it all, the men from the season seemed to sit back and avoid taking accountability, while the women ended up taking the brunt of the fallout.

We made it to the finale of “Bachelor In Paradise”: the reboot. As our final couples ponder the question of love or money, Sean and Allyshia make a chaotic return to the Hotel Azura to wage the failing-est political campaign in Paradise history. But for two couples, the rom-com vibes remain high. Who will choose love? Who will choose money? And will a few lucky folks get both?
