The Bachelor Australia

I really think Ten made a bad decision here.

I agree about that.

Why? Dundas would be terrible. He has fronted two ratings duds - The Big Adventure and The X Factor in recent years. He also gives off a somewhat fake persona compared with someone like Nick Cummins who I think will be quite down to earth.

It’s doesn’t necessarily matter what he’s done previously - Sophie Monk had previously been involved in some average rating shows too (Celeb Apprentice, AGT) but still managed to capture viewers on this. Dundas more fits the mould of the type of guy that you would expect on The Bachelor - he’s young, good looking and successful plus a recognisable face to a fair lot of people. He also is a very likeable guy too. For me that makes him much more suited than this oddball Rugby dude.

I think getting a rugby player in will be more likely to draw new viewers across (ie - male/sports loving fans). Jason Dundas fits the profile for sure, but as we saw with Sophie diversifying the format from the standard mould a bit can work quite well.

Personally, I’d love them to cast quite an older person for one season in to mix things up a bit.

The advertising this season is so off the mark and random!

Just like the choice of bachelor.

So odd that it may just work. The regular Bach fans will tune in, and a whole bunch of people thinking “WTF?” may just tune in too.
