The Bach will pick up as they go along.
That wasn’t the case when ratings fell to just above 400k last year and stayed there for the duration of the season.
I thought BIP’s ratings were on par with previous seasons?
A bit below last season.
Are P25-54 really classified as an older demo?
I was thinking the same
Older than 16-39 demo? The maths works for me
The nonstop ads for Bachelor turned me off months ago
I was initially planning on watching Bachelor in Paradise but got so sick of the saturation promos that I was over it by the time it was on.
I’m guessing viewer fatigue with the Bachelor brand. Possibly even a little tone deaf to the new reality we’re in – although that’s just unfortunate circumstances.
Last season averaged just over 400k so has nothing to do with that.
