I'm Worried Bachelor Producers Aren't Scrambling To Fix The Mistakes They Made With Gerry, Jenn, & Joan Before Grant Ellis' Bachelor Season (The Restraining Orders Prove They Don't Care About The Lead)

   

While The Bachelor season 28 had a favorable outcome for lead Joey Graziadei and his fiancée Kelsey Anderson, the couple has been one of the few successes to come out of the franchise in recent years. As the franchise has diversified, adding The Golden Bachelor and The Golden Bachelorette to its portfolio, issues that have been long-standing in the franchise have been highlighted and illuminated more thoroughly. Though there have been some interesting strides in the content The Bachelor franchise produces, the issues with the shows don’t bode well for The Bachelor season 29, which is coming soon.

While Devin’s scandal quickly took over Bachelor Nation, it wasn’t the only restraining order the franchise had to deal with.
