[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Who is this? I don’t remember him ever having been a contestant on the show. [/quote]
He isn't, they are giving us fresh blood during covid. I think that was probably needed, someone who isnt already making a bunch of their living from being on the shows[/quote]

He was supposed to be a contestant on Clare/Taysha's season, but the filming was delayed and the producers had to make a call for the Bachelor. The producers decided to take a chance with Matt.

I think there are some really interesting contestants, but of course instead of really letting us get to know them and delve into their backgrounds and interests, the show is going to give us week after week of manufactured drama and petty catfighting. Not looking forward to that. One would hope that [b]with all of the women having to have declared deep Christian faith to be eligible for this season[/b], this would be the kinder gentler cast. Not holding my breath.

I continue to be amazed that this show is so popular among the conservative/religious set. Is this why it took so long to start casting POCs and why there has never been a LGBTQIA season? The entire concept of dating 20+ people at the same time and eliminating the unworthy one by one just seems so...unchaste.

That resort looks fabulous and will be on my post-pandemic local-ish travel list. [/quote]

Is this true? How do you know? This explains SO much... I had no idea who he was- he was some other bachelor's friend it sounds like? But even after they explained where they found him I am still totally unclear where they found him or why this particular guy was such a standout catch to producers- when so many other black contestants have wowed me way more (hello, Ivan or Dale after he and Clare break up) I would have had to peace out after he launched into that prayer at the first cocktail hour- and I was shocked by how all the women (sheep) in the room dropped their heads immediately and went along with it- I was surprised no one seemed fazed/weirded out. Didn't know he was republican or his mother was a trumpster but that frees up more room on my DVR to not bother with this season.

I was thinking as he was so religious he would have been a good fit for Tayshia as well (if she wasn't into aged-looking white failures). I find him kind of knobby-looking and not attractive but I must say I was blown away by how attractive the women all are- really beautiful (though really lame jobs/not sounding terribly accomplished). Except that gummy one horsey one calling herself 'Queen'- DH and I were surprised she is still going along with her 'Queen' thing after actually seeing/realizing literally every other woman was more beautiful and had a nicer personality.[/quote]
