Title: "Two Bachelors, One Game: The Shake-Up of 'The Bachelors'"
The traditional "Bachelor" format is getting a twist with RTL's 14th season. Instead of one eligible bachelor, this time around, we have two - the "Rosenkavaliere" - competing for the affection of a group of ladies. This groundbreaking change has led to the series being renamed, with "The Bachelor" becoming "The Bachelors."
While the number of ladiesvying for the hearts of the bachelors remains the same, the overall count of participants has decreased. The upcoming season will see only 22 single ladies fighting for the roses, a decrease from the previous seasons where there were 23 and 24 contestants.
Breaking from tradition, the filming for the new season starts in Germany before the contestants head to South Africa. This is the first time since the fourth season in 2014 that the show has been filmed in Africa. The next season's premiere is yet to be announced, but typically, it starts in January. However, the delay was notable in 2023, when it shifted its start date to March.
The identities of the two lucky bachelors are yet to be revealed, but the world will get to know them on December 6.
Bonus Insights:
Over the course of the 14th season, titled "Die Bachelors," two bachelors, Dennis Gries and Sebastian Klaus, competed simultaneously. The season commenced with each bachelor on 15 blind dates, a number that was gradually reduced through 11 rose ceremonies, leaving 22 women in the competition. The final episodes showcased special "Dreamdates" in Madagascar, where the bachelors enjoyed unforgettable experiences with their favorites.
In the closing episodes, Dennis Gries and Katja Geretschuchin forged a strong connection, maintaining their relationship despite the long distance. On the other hand, Sebastian Klaus's match with Fabienne Schulte did not sustain, highlighting the season's significant emotional highs and lows.
