Plus, one of my hangups during the latest season of The Bachelor was that things started to feel contrived and formulaic, and two former Bachelorettes as hosts is the kind of change that will mix things up in some big ways.
This isn’t more of the same, and I didn’t find myself missing Chris Harrison at all during the premiere, although that’s not the case for everybody.
Whether those big ways go over well with the audience at large remains to be seen, and I could well change my mind about Tayshia Adams and Kaitlyn Bristowe as hosts as the weeks pass, but I’m very glad that something is being done differently to potentially spice things up.
