What’s This TV Show About?
Airing on the ABC television network, season 16 of The Bachelorette follows Clare Crawley — an alumna of the 18th season of The Bachelor, featuring pro soccer player Juan Pablo Galavis. Now it’s time for Claire, with a new sense of resolve and self-worth, to give out the roses, to find her soul mate from a group of 31 bachelors. They’ll pull out all the stops to vie for her heart. Chris Harrison returns as the host of what may be the most shocking season of the franchise yet.

What do you think? Are you glad that The Bachelorette TV show has been renewed for a 17th season? How would you feel if ABC had cancelled this TV series, instead?
IMO both series…The bachelor and The bachelorette have to be the dumbest concept on TV. A bunch of strangers hooking up with different people every night. Its like a petri dish on Steroids. Nothing like making out with someone who made out with 10 other people before you…yuck!
Hell Yes! I wanted to see the return of the Bachelorette/Bachelor show. I would be shocked and surprised if ABC decides to cancel the show.
