'The Bachelor' bumps 'Samantha Who?' off ABC


Thanks to a certain single dad, you won't be seeing a certain single woman on ABC for a while longer.

The network has decided to keep airing two-hour episodes of The Bachelor for the rest of its run this winter, thanks to fairly decent ratings for this cycle. That means that "Samantha Who?" which had been scheduled to return to ABC's Monday lineup next week, is for the moment homeless. The network says an announcement about the show's future -- which despite this development seems fairly solid -- will come in the next few days.

ABC's decision is a ratings-driven one, thanks to some gravity-defying numbers for current Bachelor Jason Mesnick. ABC has touted the appeal of the single dad, who was the final rejectee on "The Bachelorette" last summer, and it appears the network is right.

She started talking about Nikki first. Talked about her cut-out dress and Jason's reaction! But then talked about the conversation where she was crying and questioning herself. Bonnie and the audience felt bad for her. Bonnie said some nice things about her in a funny way. Also talked about the girls "playing a part for the rest of their lives". Bonnie was frustrated that the girls fight so much with each other. Talked about Natalie and how he has to get to the bottom of things. She also talked about Renee and her vision board. Made fun of it but then showed a vision board that Renee made for her (Bonnie). I guess Renee must watch the BH show! Bonnie appreciated the gift but also joked about it. One of the guys that works on the show said that The Bachelor is a warm-up for appearing on The Housewives of Orange County or Fear Factor. The audience laughed about it.
