I love this show and have been watching faithfully since it first aired! As many Americans would admit, it's my guilty pleasure :) Who doesn't love love?! My daughter has applied twice ... but not yet chosen! So here's my idea as to how Bachelor Nation could blow up even more!!! At the end of every season there are plenty of eligible Bachelors or Bachelorettes who are passed over only to be thrown back into the traditional dating pool (albeit now as famous celebrities). Why not host "Cocktail Parties" across the nation at the end of every season allowing those looking for love (who don't make it onto the show) to meet the "leftover" Bachelors or Bachelorettes?! I'm sure men and women alike from across the country would travel and pay to get dressed up to attend an event to find love!! With a 3-4:1 ratio at the party, I'm sure there would be plenty of potential couples who would find their way to each other (at least an initial spark) during the party! Can you imagine how many couples could then attribute their relationship to the show??!! Maybe my daughter included!! It seems you're leaving a lot of love on the table.
