What is Bachelor in Paradise?

Derived from The Bachelor and The Bachelorette, Bachelor in Paradise emerged as a spinoff. The first Bachelor show started on ABC in March 2002, featuring a man named Alex Michel. Since then, it has had 26 seasons and made different versions like The Bachelorette, Bachelor in Paradise, Bachelor Pad, The Bachelor Presents: Listen to Your Heart, and The Bachelor Winter Games. Bachelor in Paradise first aired in August 2014. It's a reality TV dating show where people from past Bachelor and Bachelorette shows come to find love.

How does Bachelor in Paradise work?

The show begins with an uneven number of men and women from The Bachelor and The Bachelorette. Every week, there's a ceremony where either the men or women give roses to the people they connect with the most. Those who don't get a rose have to leave.

The next week, things switch, and the group that didn't give out roses before now has to choose who stays and who goes. As the weeks go on, more contestants from past Bachelor and Bachelorette seasons join, creating an uneven number of men and women. This shakes things up, pushing the existing contestants to either start new relationships or stick with their current partners. Date cards are given out randomly, allowing contestants to pick someone to spend time with alone. Many new contestants join with a date card.

As the season comes to a close, the contestants are given the chance to have a private overnight date, similar to the Fantasy Suites on The Bachelor and The Bachelorette. After these dates, the finale arrives, where the contestants must decide whether to end their relationship or get engaged. Just like The Bachelor and The Bachelorette, Bachelor in Paradise also has an "After the Final Rose" special. During this, the contestants come together to talk about the drama and give updates on how their relationships are going.
