The initial cast is way hotter than the UK version IMO. I hope we get live feeds here. So excited!

Its a shame the USA is far more censored than the UK :/,![Michael-Yi.jpg]()

Hopefully there's more ethnic diversity too
This is just the starting line up there will be a lot more guys for sure. Love Island is way better than The Bachelor for sure. The UK & Australian versions are great as well! I'm just hoping since CBS is gonna be super censored, live feeds need to happen or uncensored scenes in their cable counterpart haha.

Ah yes of course , finger's crossed
Also remember that this is just series 1, it took the UK, 3 series to get as popular as it is
They definitely have a lot to sort out. I thought it was decent, despite rushing it, they introduced the bombshell two seconds after the first coupling happened... it wasn’t as dramatic of an entrance.
That said the location is problematic. It rained a lot. The beach creates audio problems. The cameras used feel like you are watching big brother. They aren’t as high quality/smooth as the UK’s. It goes hand in hand the awkward editting. Can’t hate them though, it’s so difficult introducing a new dating reality show to the USA. It’ll get better if it’s renewed.

Zac is the clear stand out for me. He is so gorgeous! I would be on my knees instantly. Those eyes. That smile. That body. I think he even got the most ladies to step forward. Who wouldn't!

Wow! What about the other guys? I hear that the UK version sometimes throws in a bi guy or girl to keep things interesting. Any personal feel for one of these guys being open minded or bi?
They've included someone who is, at minimum, bi-curious, but of course, it's a girl. Not surprising to me in the US.
One of the guys complimented Zac on his eyes and said he should go into modeling. Possibly him but I forgot who said what. This show is so forgettable.

Perhaps it gets better? It should be ongoing so I think we can give feedback & all. I'm hoping for more hot guys soon haha. At least we got some alternative for #BB21 lacking eye candies lol
The premiere total ratings was not good. 2.7 million (0.6/18-49 demographic). If it continues to falter this might the first and only season. Many American commentators are already trying to compare this to Bachelor in Paradise and Paradise Hotel. In my own opinion it should have broadcast on as a weekly MTV, one of CBS sisters non-linear channels, as a compliment to Ex on the Beach.

Yes please do! Last night it was fun to watch if not interesting. I will say the guy commentator is the worst and makes the show feel like it should be on all-access tv! Some of the guys are hot and will watch to see what happens. Post the cowboy penis and any others you find
Yeah one of the best part of the UK version is Iain Sterling's voice-overs. If this show lasts more than one season, I think it'll end up like Big Brother where the first season was a direct duplicate of the British version, and afterwards they realized they needed to cater and adjust to an American appetite. I'm sure they knew that a show of this size would be a gamble.
