Well, well, well… this uneventful-turned-nailbiter season comes to its “dramatic conclusion” tonight (Monday August 5) on ABC at 8pm/7pm Central with a 2-hour Finale Part 2 followed by a 1-hour After The Final Rose (ATFR). What do and don’t we know about tonight’s season ender?
- The Finale Part 2 is not live, but it will air in front of a live in-studio audience, hosted by Chris Harrison.
- The ATFR will be live, and in front of a live in-studio audience, hosted by Chris Harrison.
- Des, Chris H, Chris S, Drew, and Nate (Des’ brother) are in the Finale P2.
- Des, Chris H, Chris S, Drew, and Brooks will be in the ATFR.
- We don’t know yet if Brooks is in the Finale P2. Nor do we know if Des’ parents will be there? Will there be any Meet-The-Parents dates? Or will they have Meet-The-Bro dates instead?
- Late breaking news: The next Bachelor lead will be announced during the ATFR. Who will it be? According to Bachelor and Bachette Fans…
- Birthday Boy Juan Pablo (yes today is his bday) is in LA now, while other strong contenders like Zak W (Des’ F4), Jef (Bette 8 Emily’s F1), and Arie Jr (Bette 8 Emily’s F2) are not. Usually the next lead is present for an on-air intro and convo with ringmaster Chris H when they are announced.
- Last week a bystander saw and tweeted that Chris S and Elan (a TB producer) were filming a segment under Seattle’s Space Needle in which Chris S handed out roses to passersby! Could it be a “don’t worry, I’m doing fine!” segment pre-taped for ATFR? Or will it be part of a “Chris S is our next Bachelor!” announcement? Check out the non-hint IG that Chris posted last night.
- Why has Drew recently relocated to LA from Scottsdale (AZ)? For his modeling career? To be with Des – is Drew her F1? Or to film the next season as TB’s lead? Also, Drew has been conspicuously absent from social media since TBette filming first began.
- Things that make you go hmmm…
- LATE BREAKING NEWS: Arie Jr announces that he will NOT be the next TB lead!
