Can't wait for Golden Bachelor in Paradise!
Why do I get the feeling it‘s going to be Golden Bachelor on Board instead of in paradise😅
In Boca Raton 🤣
That would be fantastic!
That would be interesting let make it happen 😂.
☠️☠️☠️
This might be a hot take but Gary is honestly all around more attractive than any of the recent bachelors. He seems like a gem!
So true. A bunch of old skanks
Absolutely!.
Agreed.
Yes, he is genuinely nice and wholesome.
He genuinely has a better personality than all the others combined lmao
This whole episode was the first episode of a bachelor franchise where I’m genuinely rooting for all the contestants. Gerry is such a breath of fresh air.
WOW! You make a very good point.... Rooting for all the Beautiful Ladies (Baby BOOMERS and I, myself is a BABY Boomer.... will be 62 in 2024). He seems like a great guy. Any of the Beautiful Ladies will be happy to hit it off with him.
he s a gay actor. there is nothing real here.
Golden Bachelor with one episode has made mainline Bachelor completely irrelevant that’s how good it was
I agree! 💯
💯💯💯yesss!
I was glued to my couch and laughed the whole time😃😀🥹
This 🎉
I started to watch the review of bachelor in paradise and I literally lasted 15 seconds and I had to turn it off.
Gerry genuinely seems 5000 times more sincere than any guy who has ever been on the show.
I can’t quite put my finger on why, but this show has really hit the right pacing. The 1 hour mark means it moves quickly but somehow the actual feeling of the show is so much less hectic and feels more relaxed. Well done production!
Yes
That's what British programs feel like. I feel like American shows think they need to be loud
Reminds me of Season 1-4 of the bachelor. Haha!!!
The bachelor and bachelorette need to take notes.
I hope this shows the producers that most of us want to see a genuine love story and not cheap drama.
it is a reality t.v. show. There is nothing real about it.
Gary looks at the women when they talk. He actually listens to get information and build intimacy. The other Bachelor leads listen to get the conversation over with. He’s the perfect bachelor.
I really bawled at the end too when they dedicated the season to Roberta . Ugh my heart I was sobbing like a baby
Me too!! 😭
Same! I am so happy she got to root for her friend before she passed.
I was howling NO at the screen
I cried three times during this episode - of course during and after Gerry's story about his wife, when he started tearing up after letting women go, and then when I saw the season was dedicated to Roberta.
I hope I don't cry during every episode - I don't know that I can afford a pallet of Kleenex!
But if he's not over her he shouldn't of done this
This is so awesome! I'm so tired watching all these super young, immature dogfights and catfights on The Bachelor and The Bachelorette over the past few years. FINALLY, something mature to watch! This will be a REAL romance, not just drama for the sake of drama!
You don't think you'll see the old people fight? Lol
@@peekaboots01 Not like the young ones do. Sure, it will be emotional. The whole premise of the show is designed to bring out emotions by putting people into such an odd situation. In the preview, you can clearly see that it even gets to Gerry after a while. But these people have lived their lives and know themselves by now. They've all already handled and healed from many hardships. Because of that, they'll handle this much better than the young ones do.
Stay tuned. It was only day one. I'm sure there will be catfights. Same concept as the young bachelor series😮
@@lizdahl847Exactly. It'll be no different at all.
@@peekaboots01
Right, they'll probably be pulling each other's wigs off 😂
Y’all- my nana is in a retirement home and freaking ABC hosted an event at her place with food, props, and a season premiere watch for all the guests. How cool is that 😂❤ also- why is this like way more entertaining than regular bachelor??
Aw, that's so,fun
@@makeupandtheology1821 she loved it!
Because it's the very first one of an older one that's why.
Gerry is a stand up guy, classy, well spoken, respectful and looking for true love. He also looks good and in shape.
All the women saying such nice things about each other warmed my heart. I loved this!
Yes it was so cute!
I was SO taken by Edith. Such a stunning woman, aging with such grace. All of these ladies were wonderful to watch✨
She was stunning!!! Literally perfect. Hope I age as beautiful as her! All the women aged so beautifully! 🩷
Same! She would be an amazing Golden Bachelorette if she’s not with Gary in the end.
Right, that's the only name I remember 😂
My jaw dropped when I saw her. So gorgeous
Best part of the show was not hearing "like" in between every other word!! The maturity is so refreshing. Edited to add: We will see how well this comment ages! 😆
Exactly!!
I didn’t notice until you mentioned it. 😂
True
Great point!!
Yesss!! I was thinking that too!! They all express themselves so eloquently!
This is what the bachelor should be! Quality cast and lots of fun!🥰🥰🥰
My heart broke when I saw the show was dedicated to Roberta.....
SAME I actually cried I loved their friendship so much :’(
I had to chuckle, really chuckle over the ladles complimenting each other - their earrings, dresses, etc. We are so used to the cattiness of the younger women, and then we get the maturity of the older ladies.♡
I've met Faith a few times and went to school with her sons. She is incredibly kind, beautiful, and talented in real life, too! She is beloved in all of Eastern Washington and especially in the Tricities! ❤ #TeamFaith
had no idea she was from eastern washington! makes me love her more
Having grown weary of the franchise, I tuned into this premiere. Gerry is the nicest, wittiest & most authentic Bachelor that I can remember. Life experience has elevated the conversations, half of the women are worthy of consideration, and you’ll never question motive. A very different & delightful TV series!
WHAT TOOK SO LONG TO DO A SHOW LIKE THIS? It's nice to finally see LOVE from a different generation ❤ Everyone deserves to have that special someone in their lives!! I hope the producers are listening.
I’m pretty young, but the regular bachelor seasons make me feel old bc there are so many 23 year olds. This makes me feel like I can be fierce and weird for decades to come!
Same!!
Right?! It was so inspiring!
I think "Golden" will be a HIT!!! It will not only bring in the regular Bachelor Nation fans, but the older crowd as well.💞
This is the first time in a WHILE I've actually wanted to watch the show, and not just your recaps. Doing the Lord's work here fantake!
Same!! I can't miss this goodness!
After BF Live last night & this Recap, I actually subbed to Hulu. Now, in my book, this proves heightened interest and commitment... at least until Gerry hands out the Final Rose!
No i was BEAMING throughout this whole video, I am so excited for Gary and his ladies!! 😭
Me, too! I am dying to see more of these wonderful people.
This guy is totally cool and sincere, and I can hardly wait to see what happens, although I have this feeling that the lady who received the first impression might go really far. I definitely see a connection between them.
So happy they are doing this type of season
Okay, but where do we form the support group for the trauma we're going to experience during late-season eliminations? Because eliminations will be sad all season, but watching these women get their hearts broken from hometowns through the finale is going to land me in therapy.
Yeah the younger crowd needs to catch up!!! These older folks were 10x more entertaining 😭😭😭
We must protect this man at all costs. I cannot believe how much I cried this entire episode.
I loved Sandra's "zen practice" -- what fun energy! 😄
What did they bleep?
@@Oceangirl_505 Not sure but I thought it was funny how whatever she said had to be bleeped out! I wish we could find out somehow! 😂
@@Oceangirl_505 F-U-C-K They posted the unedited on X
I think it was the ‘F’ word 😊
Honestly I loved it. She may not be the one for Gerry but man that zen practice was a major mood. 😂😂😂😂
Production of The Bachelor... please don't ruin this.
My thought exactly!💯
This!
Write that again in all caps please!!!
SERIOUSLY!!!
This is going to be my first season I’ve watched in a while and it’s so cute! I love the cast so much
It’s so nice seeing aging not being shown as a miserable death sentence and is instead a part of life that can be enjoyed and should be celebrated
This was the BEST episode EVER of ANY season of ANY Bachelor-related show, EVER!! Why can't they produce all the shows in this franchise as beautifully as this one was produced!?
Hopefully someday they'll have a Golden Bachelorette Show!!!
No doubt they'll have one immediately following Joey's season.
I think this is the first time I actually cried during an episode of the entire Bachelor/Bachelorette franchise. I hope this isn't the only season of this. I lost my husband in August of 2022 after 38 years. I'm nowhere near ready to explore the possibility of finding my next soul mate, but this gives me hope and who knows, maybe I'll sign up to meet a future golden bachelor.
I’m sorry for the loss of your husband, my heart goes out to you ❤️ I hope this show is able to bring you a little joy this fall!
And when the world needed them most… they returned 🎉
We love a good Avatar reference ❤
When Faith brought out the guitar, I was hoping she would sing some George Michael to Gerry -- "Cause you gotta have Faith, You gotta have Fa-aith... " 😆
Good One! 🌟
🌹🎸😊
You need to be a producer on the show. Great idea.
Gerry and all the women seem so genuine, and I truly hope he finds love. I’ve never cried so much during an episode of the bachelor
There's been sob stories from previous Bachelor/rette seasons and I've never been phased by any of the sad tales. However, the opening of Golden Bachelor hit me differently and actually made me tear up! Love Golden Bachelor and I think this version is going to breathe new life into what has become a stale and predictable franchise. I'm so looking forward to the season to see how Gerry's journey unfolds! ❤❤❤💯
I really enjoyed this episode and this will definitely bring a new audience to the show, as well as those that stopped watching. I hope they keep the Golden seasons going.
I cannot believe it took so long for ABC to get this Golden Bachelor! I loved it! Maybe they will start with middle age , too ….. eventually ( 50’s) 😊
I swear, if production pulls their normal antics with these beautiful souls who are actually looking for real love, I will not forgive them! The drama portion of the preview made me worry about what production has done. These are not your normal twenty-something influencers-to-be.
This show is so wholesome 😭
This is sooooo much better than the Bachelor. I feel like they finally listened to us when we said we wanted mature people on the show!
Had to pause the video a minute in to cry over both Gary’s wife and Roberta 😭😭 Definitely gonna watch this season ❤️
I, too, ADORED this! It was everything it should be and I beamed, cried, laughed and marveled at just how lovely and genuine the episode was. Terrific, in every way. This, boys and girls, is how to reel us in: surprise and delight us. Yay!
A wonderful and emotional night , so genuine. Gary is a breath of fresh air 🧡
We've waited for over a year (2 yrs?) for this and it did not disappoint. I'm glad the running time was kept down to 1 hour. Less time for production to pad the episode with fake / production driven "drama" and just get down to the meat of the show. All the ladies were stunning. If they do a Golden Bachelor in Paradise - Watch out. 👀👀👀👀🤩
BTW, I absolutely Love your name! You brought back great memories. Now I need to find the DVD & watch it again with my adult, unmarried son! 🎉
This made me think-what if they put the golden bachelor contestants with the regular bachelor contestants on paradise? 😂 now that I would love to watch
This whole idea and first episode was a breathe of fresh air. I have been over the extreme drama and pettiness from the previous seasons for quit some time now. It will be nice to see a more mature collective try to find love this time around.
The Golden Bachelor is so refreshing!
I had stopped watching the show and only watching your recaps (because they were way better than the actual show). Now I am happy to watch both!
I love how genuine Gary is
I had tears in my eyes and a huge smile on my face throughout the show. Ive never been moved in the way this show moved me, it was so unexpected.
I recorded it for my husband who was out of town and I cant wait to watch it again!!
I'm excited to see a season where (hopefully) most of the cast is there for love, not fame.
This was so wholesome & enjoyable to watch.
Wholesome? I disagree. It'll get nasty real quick. Old bags acting like girls is not wholesome it's sad
I understand why the guy is in his 70's by why aren't to girls in there 20's? 🤔🍿
@@peekaboots01 wait till you get that old & you will too the main thing is will you look as good as they do? Hmmm
@@peekaboots01, better than being a classless bleeping bleep like you. Your mom must be so proud!
Everyone seems sooo mature and genuine in this. No more Instagram thirsty people. Haven’t watched the past 3 seasons for that reason
So refreshing and what the women said to Gerry was believable. Hope producers don't acript every moment
It was Fabulous and Soo Refreshing to watch! I also got teary eyed during the 😢 intro ❤
Gerry is more attractive than his photos, his personality makes him sparkle.
this was so fun to watch back, it really was so nice and heartwarming, also the usage of the Parks and Rec clip was PERFECTION
The Rizz comment made my entire year
Right? And he DOES have rizz. Tons of it.
This is so wholesome 🥰 I feel so good after watching this!
He was absolutely adorable. And I was so impressed with the ladies. Can’t wait to see more 🤪
Gotta love Gerry, so nice, kind and genuine.
I loved the episode so much! ❤ he's AMAZING and all the ladies are wonderful!
Gary seems like quite a catch. He's classy, slim, handsome, intelligent, and has a full head of hair. My fear is that he will not be able to stop thinking about his late wife. It is very difficult to compete with a ghost. The ladies have shown that being 60 plus doesn't mean a lady has to be a couch potato who is obese, boring, matronly, bald, by choice. Kudos to these beautiful ladies. This season should be very interesting.
Although your fear is valid, I don’t think it will get in his way given he has had time to grieve and knows that this new person in his life isn’t a replacement or competition. It’s a different situation than someone like Michael who was on Bach In Paradise
Gerry said last night that he wasn't looking for someone to replace his wife Toni. A much younger woman may not be able to understand that but these mature women very well know what he's talking about -- especially the women who themselves have lost their spouse (there are at least three of the women whose husbands have passed away).
Can't wait to see how gary handles all the drama. I'm sure it'll be a breath of fresh air
I love how he was genuinely trying to get to know them and laugh with them instead of just skipping straight to making out.
All these women are genuinely a catch, sense of humour 10/10 ❤😂
Enjoyed the Golden Bachelor big time! Can't wait for the rest of the season!
I loved it. Finally mature people. The ladies are stunning and the bachelor is classy and wholesome. Great idea❤
Thank you for such a FUN video! I have *never* watched this show, but hearing all the hype, I decided to watch your recap. Wow, this will be fun to see what happens! Thank you for getting me hooked! 😄 (it's also sooooo nice to see older people for a change!)
I love his laugh ..he laughs and it makes me laugh!!
Yes, that was the best episode and recap ever!! I'm so excited for more!
The cackling was really awesome. I kept laughing with him. I really look forward to watching this season ❤
The golden bachelor truly had it all! I’m not even mad about my fresh lash extensions getting wet. What is the stuff coming out of my eyes!? I’m so excited for this season!
I hope the network keeps it this pure and wholesome
The memes insterted throughout this video are PERFECT. Bravo👏
Good luck ladies and have a grand time.
It’s so refreshing how direct the women are since they aren’t looking for fame
Great recaps as always fantake this season is really going to devastated me i actually adore gerry so much i think he might be my favorite bachelor ever. The fact that he was so sincere ,thoughtful, and crying while sending the women home 🥺
But , i was also genuinely shocked he sent patty home the first night! I really thought producers were going to encourage him to keep at least more nights.
I absolutely loved the first episode!!!!
" dang Gary, he does have Rizz"😂
I have not watched the Bach. since like season 2 and I am pulled into this one right away! Everyone just seems more sincere about this process.... I am a FAN
Yes, Fantake: it's a non-toxic experience watching this new Bachelor. I gave up on the other ones since now it's all about their followers and influencer status.
I can’t even tell you how refreshing it was to see no caddy, gossipy BS between 21 year old Instagram models 👏🏼 huge raise to whoever suggested this show. I’m already obsessed.
I like it! Looking forward to his journey.
I loved it!!
Well my favorite part so far is just the extreme fuck you to the stereotypical view of when women get older. There is this real toxic stigma of women getting older and it doesn’t need to be that way. Just because you’re older, it doesn’t mean life is over or that you’re not active or that you are not beautiful or past your prime.
I love that these women are confident and that they own that confidence and who they are. It’s very refreshing and regardless of who Gerry ends up with, these women are really fighting that stigma so hard and I love it. They are confident and have self love for themselves and I love it. More of that please.
Loved it completely it’s about time I hope there more golden to come or even for specail needs people they need love too
You are hilarious !!! LOL - literally at your comments but taking the journey with you- I just hope he has the courage and room to put his foot down on the “TV drama” moving forward
Okay is it Gerry and sounds like Gary? I am beyond confused about his name but totally here for this adorably wholesome season.❤
Thanks for the recap Fantake! Here in NZ our crappy provider does The Bachelor/Bachelorette and the current season on Paradise but no Golden Bachelor. I'm so mad!!!!
I'm so excited about this season. It was a really enjoyable first episode. Thank you for the recap, it was great as always! 😊
Great recap as always! I loved episode one and can’t wait for this season.
I loved it! It was such a nice change of pace from the traditional Bachelor(ette) drama.
Rewatching a bunch of these recaps and I just realised that my method of taking a breath and going "fuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuck" originated from seeing it on here. Would recommend. Feels good. Destressing without feeling too crunchy.
The fact that I couldn't stop smiling while watching the recap says a lot about this season... #gogary
