‘Bachelor Live’ finale: Michelle Collins returns; Ben Higgins; Ralph Garman, Lacey Chabert, Lee Brice set

Ben -

While “The Bachelor” with Ben Higgins may still have several weeks to go still on the air, Monday night marks the final episode of “Bachelor Live” this season. After this “Castle” will be returning for a few weeks, and then the show will return to ABC in order to break things down during the “After the Final Rose” special following the finale.

So who is going to appear on the aftershow for its final week? The best news to us is that we’re getting more of Michelle Collins! She and Allison Williams proved to be a formidable one-two punch on this past episode, but for Monday’s installment she will be joined by comedian Ralph Garman, actress Lacey Chabert, and country singer Lee Brice. (Oh, and Bachelor Ben Higgins will also be around.)

So what will the legacy of this after-show be? Probably a little mixed. Most of the guests have been funny and entertaining, while at the same time there have also been some rather useless segments. We could care less about people having viewing parties and calling in on Skype, while there’s also no point in interviewing contestants from this season while the show is still filming. They cannot really say much, so we’d prefer to see more interviews with past people. (For example, why in the world has Desiree not been on this or any other show in some time?)

We’ll have our full take on the show after it airs tomorrow.
