Why the heck are they still persisting with this show? The funeral has already come and gone correct?
This years season in January was successful on timeshifts and BVoD I believe.
Successful I assume means profitable?

Today’s Sunday Herald Sun reveals another three bachelors will take part in the next season, currently filming in Melbourne. They are: Wesley Senna Cortes, model Ben Waddell, and former NRL player Luke Bateman.
Here’s a story from TV Tonight if you can’t access that story behind the paywall.
Fall In Love With The Most Romantic Season Yet Of The Bachelors Australia.
Meet Australia’s Three Most Eligible Bachelors: Wesley, Ben and Luke.
Prepare to feel triple the sparks, triple the butterflies and triple the jitters with the announcement that three swoon-worthy Bachelors are looking for love this year on the most romantic season of The Bachelors Australia yet.
Three soon-to-be-smitten suitors, Wesley Senna Cortes, Ben Waddell and Luke Bateman, are all searching for the one.
Meet Brazil’s hottest export, Wesley. He has taken a lot of risks in life, including moving to Australia to study theology, but Wesley’s played it safe when it comes to finding love, until now. Family is everything to Wesley, and now he’s ready to lay it all on the line and find the soulmate he can build a life with.
Wesley said: “It’s a huge honour given what the show means to Australia, but also to represent my culture. It’s not every day that you have such an incredible team helping you find love. I couldn’t be more excited.”
Ben’s success as an international model has led to a lucrative career, but now he has his heart set on finding the connection of a lifetime. On paper, Ben has it all – but what he really wants is a partner to join him on life’s adventures and share his passion for the environment and sustainability.
Ben said: “It’s such a surreal experience to take part in the new Bachelor series, and while I feel incredibly lucky it’s also very daunting. I’ll be going in with an open mind and open heart to find the girl of my dreams.”
Bringing the country charm is former NRL player, Luke. While he grew up on the land and works as a lumberjack, Luke is a big softie at heart and has been known to swap the axe for pen and paper to write heartfelt poems when he’s head over heels.
Luke said: "This is the opportunity of a lifetime, and I’m feeling all the first date nerves – dialled up to 11. I’m looking for a partner who I can build and share a life with, a genuine person who makes me laugh and wants to start a family.”
Expect these men to pull out all the stops and put in more effort than ever before to woo the woman of their dreams.
But where would our Bachelors be without their wingman? Thankfully, host and resident cupid, Osher Günsberg, is back to help the trio find their leading ladies.
Osher Günsberg said: “I am thrilled to once again be a part of Australia’s favourite love story, and even more stoked that Melbourne will be the backdrop for the most romantic season we’ve ever made. The guys are so great, and the ladies who have chosen to be a part of this are powerful, smart women who aren’t afraid to find the love they came to find.”
Coming Soon To 10 And 10 Play.
A star in its own right, Melbourne will serve as the ultimate matchmaker this season. The Bachelors Australia franchise is calling Victoria home, sweet home for the first time ever, so expect dates that showcase all the character and charisma Australia’s culture capital has to offer.
With triple the bachelors and triple the love, are you ready for the romance of a lifetime?
Do you know what would have been interesting rather than having 3 guys again. Combining the Bachelor and Bachelorette together and having a man and woman looking for love and a group of men and women separately vying for the suitors.

What would be the point of having them together though? Their potential suitors might hook up with each other and ignore the Bachelor and Bachelorette?
Isn’t that what Bachelor in Paradise was anyway?

The three bachelors were on The Sunday Project today. It was clearly pre-recorded as you could still see the streetscape in the background under the grey sky.
We know they prerecord most of the interviews. It’s not a secret. They often clearly say so too.

That’s why I said separate. Maybe they could meet up once at a mansion party for drama
There’s a good reason why you’re not a television producer. 
3 guys rated appallingly last time why do they think this will be any different?
I imagine these figures had something to do with it.
