Bachelor Nation Has Mixed Reactions To 'Golden Bachelor' Announcement

Bachelor Nation is tapping into new territory with "The Golden Bachelor."

The official announcement for the franchise's exploration into the hearts of those no longer in their thirties was made on Tuesday, and some of the franchise's fans weren't thrilled with the announcement.

The Blast just shared the 4-1-1 on "The Golden Bachelor," which follows a premise that the franchise has been teasing for a while; the franchise began running commercials during its programming since it began flirting with the idea three years ago; it couldn't move forward due to the COVID-19 pandemic of 2020.

"The Golden Bachelor" has launched an official Twitter account, and various Instagram accounts affiliated with the franchise have started to reveal the show's existence; the show's Instagram grid currently features only one post!

Our "The Golden Bachelor" report will focus on those over 60 looking for love.

The Hollywood Reporter shared the show's official report, which states, "...In this all-new unscripted series, our hopeless romantic is given a second chance at love in search of a partner to share the sunset years of life. The women arriving at the mansion have a lifetime of experience, living through love, loss, and laughter, hoping for a spark that ignites a future full of endless possibilities. In the end, will our Golden man turn the page to start a new chapter with the woman of his dreams?"

As new details unearth about the show, Bachelor Nation fans are starting to weigh in on social media over the series.

On the official Instagram post, posted by the show's account and ABC's, one user wrote, "Based on your casting for the regular seasons, this person will be what 32? 35?"

"So over 30?" another user asked.

"Watch, they're all gonna be in their 40s 🙄," another chimed in.

Over on Twitter, one user wrote, "Everyone bi***ing abt the golden bachelor is just jealous bc they know I'm gonna win dilf bachelor and then come back and win milf bachelorette like."

Writer Linda Holmes tweeted, "And by the way, anticipating the "har har doing shots of Ensure"/"are you saying these people have s*x at this age??" jokes around that "Golden Bachelor" thing … I am already exhausted."

"No. No. No." another Instagram user commented on the previous photo.

"I am here to watch folks get cussed out. When you 40+, you ain't got time for the BS," another Instagram fan wrote.

Former 'Bachelorette' Gabby Windey's beloved Grandpa John was mentioned many times over platforms about the show!

Those insiders affiliated with the show are optimistic about viewership and reaction to the show.

When he discussed it with Variety, Disney executive Rob Mills was optimistic about the show's reception in 2020.

Mills told the outlet, "Some of the casting interviews we got were so touching. "It's such a different way of doing 'The Bachelor' because these people are just at a different place. There is an interesting thing about people who have hit the other end of the spectrum, who've lived their lives, raised their kids, widowed or divorced, and maybe some have never been in love. We thought that would be an interesting dynamic through the 'Bachelor' prism," Mills said.

"The Golden Bachelor" will air in September, following "The Bachelorette." 'Bachelor' alumna Charity Lawson has accepted the franchises rose to lead the show through its latest season!

"Bachelor In Paradise" will also air in the fall.
