Ellen would be entertaining to me. Leslie no.

Although I think Ellen is cute and she has a fun, peppy personality, her accent is grating and she doesn't really give off a romantic interest vibe. The Golden Bachelorette casting questionnaire asks which Golden Bachelor cast member he finds most attractive and why. The majority pick there will almost certainly be Golden Bachelorette. Because men are superficial, guarantee most will say Leslie or Faith (though the horses and camping thing will work against her). The other very attractive ones, Nancy and Joan, probably didn't get enough screen time to generate the same level of interest. It also doesn't make sense that Leslie seems to have a handler unless she is the presumed pick and is already being managed.

Do we know she has a handler? Because that seems important.

Also, do we believe this about the "casting questionnaire"? Where is this coming from?

Thank you! That was really interesting. I wonder how Gerry answered the "previous relationships" question, if that was on his questionnaire. Or whether the show ignored his previous relationships so they could spin it as "widower seeking new romance." Not that I'm a huge Gerry fan, I'm just curious.

At the end of the day, the producers care about audience size and ad revenue. They don't care what percentage of the men want to get into a particular contestant's pants.

Probably most of the audience is women (I don't have stats for that, just a hunch). If the producers suspect that their mostly-female audience doesn't want to watch a particular bachelorette, it probably won't happen. My guess is they're going to focus-group the heck out of their choices.

Oh yeah, focus-group data will be the main driver but they also need a pool of guys who are attracted to the woman for the show to have any chance of working. Interesting that Faith already said it will not be her.

Sure. But they care too much about the potential size of their mostly female audience to ignore what their female audience wants in a bachelorette. No way they're going to first choose a bunch of men and then, second, choose a bachelorette based on the men's responses. They won't let a bunch of aging horndogs make the crucial bachelorette decision for them.

You're thinking about this backwards. First they're going to pick the bachelorette, because that's the big decision. And then they're going to use the questionnaire to pick the guys who would like her based on their questionnaire responses. Not the other way around.

True. I'm pretty sure Leslie's huge social media following is mostly women. Anyway, whoever it is will be carefully vetted. If someone has something really unappealing turn up, it could rule them out even if they seem like a natural pick.
