When should ‘The Bachelor: The Women Tell All’ air with Nick Viall?
Tonight, “The Bachelor” is giving us one of its time-honored traditions in hometown dates. this is a chance to see some really interesting interactions between Nick Viall, the remaining women, and their families. It’s also a chance to get a further introduction to Rachel Lindsay’s family, who will probably have a big role to play on “The Bachelorette” this summer. (It’s so unusual to have this episode in advance and to plan the show in advance.)
As we look ahead now to the remainder of the season, there is one more question that needs to be raised: When is “The Women Tell All” going to air? There is no confirmation at the moment, but if we had it our way, we would like to see the show air in two weeks. The biggest reason for that would be allowing for Rachel to have two different opportunities to address the crowd — once discussing her time with Nick Viall (getting some extra closure), and the other being “After the Final Rose” in order to discuss “The Bachelorette” this coming season.
Will this happen? Probably, given that the majority of the seasons have featured the “Tell All” special before the finale and after the overnight dates. There are some exceptions here and there, but this is the format that seems to work best, especially since you want as many important people on the “Tell All” as possible instead of a bunch of contestants from early in the season you barely remember. One of the biggest things to remember with these seasons is that these specials often run long, and aren’t anywhere near as interesting in practice as we’d want them to be in theory.
Interestingly, over the past few years the part of it that we’ve come to enjoy the most is the part that features the bloopers. It’s one of the few chances to see what’s behind the curtain when it comes to production.
