[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think the amount of attention this is getting is absurd.  I guess nobody remembers that there was a version of this done by another network (Fox maybe?) years ago with an older Bachelor and older women.  Don't think it did that well in the ratings.  The bachelor in that one was probably in his 60s.

They should have cast it with 85+ year olds.[/quote]

Eh.  There aren't many new shows to watch these days, so people are eager to watch something new and different.
Also, I saw some news articles recently about who actually watches broadcast TV.  It is boomers and Generation X mostly.  Younger people stream.  Older people grew up with TV shows coming on at a certain time and everyone gathered around the TV at the appointed time. They are used to making a potty run or taking out the trash during the commercial breaks.  This is familiar and comfortable for them and they want to continue to do this. And those generations have a lot of money. 
So it seems to me this is a show to keep the older folks happy.  [/quote]
