The Golden Bachelorette aired episode 6 this week on Thursday, October 23, 2024. The segment saw Joan go on the Hometown dates with her top four contenders to get to know them further and meet their families.

Fans reacted to Joan's hometown date with Pascal online and praised the male cast member on X.
"Honestly, Pascal having a "usual" at a local business, and also being well liked by the employees at his salon is a sign he's a pretty good dude. A man of the people," one person wrote.

"I agree! I noticed the barista say they would put it on his house account. Pascal has connections!" a fan commented.
"ok...I will admit. I was wrong about Pascal in terms of being a good time guy. Sometimes the dopest guy is just a guarded guy. Please men..please please men. Be more vulnerable. It could lead to the best relationships of your life," a tweet read.
Some fans of The Golden Bachelorette criticized Pascal:
"something about Pascal seems off and I feel like that feeling started when he said he has to pay someone to do his laundry cause he doesn’t know how to do it himself," a person wrote.
"Why pascal’s son say he had a lot of girlfriends like that?," a fan commented.
"If Pascal has 100 haters, I’m one of them. If Pascal has 50 haters, I’m one of them. If Pascal has 1 hater, It’s me. If Pascal has no haters, It means I am dead. If the world is with Pascal, then I am against the world," a tweet read.
Fans of The Golden Bachelorette further said:
"Probably an unpopular opinion, but as a big Pascal fan I almost feel like he is too warm and dazzling for Joan. Not taking anything away from her as a person, I just don't feel she is his perfect match. He'd make a great Golden Bachelor," a person wrote.
"I honestly get it, Joan’s connection to Pascal. He’s fun. High maintenance, but has a real zest for life. And I think that’s what she’s looking for, for her next chapter," a fan commented.
