No matter which contestant Sean Lowe, the chiseled, strawberry blond, chooses as his fantasy fiancée on the three-hour season finale of ABC’s The Bachelor on Monday (8pm) — will it be Catherine Giudici, 26, a quirky graphic designer from Seattle, or Lindsay Yenter, 25, a petite substitute teacher from Fort Bragg, N.C.? — the network has rekindled the romance between the reality series and its viewers.
In 2010, Jason Mesnick and Molly Malaney were the
first Bachelor couple to wed after Mr. Mesnick proposed to one
contestant, then dumped her for Ms. Malaney, a runner-up.
After several seasons in decline, The Bachelor has had a resurgence
rare among network reality shows. The glossy dating show, which pairs
one hunky (often shirtless) man with dozens of spray-tanned (often
bikini-clad) women until he proposes to the ultimate survivor, has also
become the unlikely exception in a television season when almost every
other show on ABC and its competing networks has declined.
