The Talking Through The Medias opening toss up story.
When The Bachelor premiered on ABC 20 years ago—on March 25, 2002—the dating-competition genre was still in its infancy. Reality TV cameras, Bachelor cams included, were still shooting in standard definition. And the house now known as Bachelor Mansion hadn’t even been built.
After only six episodes—a season half the length of recent Bachelor editions—inaugural Bachelor Alex Michel chose Amanda Marsh as his winner. Their relationship ended soon thereafter, with Marsh alleging that Michel was still pining for the season’s runner-up, Trista Sutter (née Rehn), who became the franchise’s first Bachelorette.
But that off-screen breakup was immaterial to ABC. The network already had its first Bachelor “journey to find love” in the can, and it could only hope the show would be the pop culture phenomenon it has become.

Okay, One rose to give out to and one exit door to go through. It's the Yay & Yawn of March.
The Yay: TPIR. They decided to embark on a 50 city nationwide tour. They'll be rolling into town all spring long. It's The Big Wheel.......to go.
The yawn: American Song Contest. It got beat out by American Idol 0.7 to 0.5. Guess they wanted to stick with The Voice, huh? When's another umpteen season out?

Thanks to Netflix, you won’t have to miss a reality dating show for a while.
The streaming service has unveiled its year-round slate of reality romance shows, and to celebrate the renewals and series orders, stars of Love Is Blind and Too Hot To Handle teamed up to form a fake 2000s-style boy band N-2-LUV and previewed their debut single “Love Has No Offseason” for Nick Lachey. Watch it in the links below.
Love Is Blind, in which singles get to know one another without seeing each other until after the proposal, has been renewed through Season 5. This comes after the success of its second season, the cast members of which fans will be able to catch up with when a new installment of Love Is Blind: After the Altar premieres later this year. Also coming in 2022 is Season 3 (in Dallas). Each season will feature new singles and new cities.
Too Hot to Handle will be back for a fourth season soon. Once again, singles will show up for what they think will be the sexiest vacation of their lives only to find out that they must abstain from any kind of sexual contact (or self-gratification) to form meaningful connections and win money.
Finally, a new series, hosted by Nick Lachey, will bring together stars from your favorite shows. “Singles from Netflix reality shows have done some crazy things to find love. But they’re still single,” the logline teases. “In this new series, they will couple up to match each other and themselves in hopes of finding the perfect match.” The singles come from Too Hot To Handle, Love Is Blind, The Circle, Selling Tampa, and others.
Fans can apply for future seasons of their favorite shows on NetflixReality.com. For more conversation about Netflix reality, tune into the new podcast We Have The Receipts, hosted by Lauren Speed-Hamilton (Love Is Blind) and Chris Burns (The Betchelor).

Jason Biggs is getting back in the kitchen with pies.
The star of American Pie, and the infamous warm apple pie scene, has teamed up with ITV America’s Thinkfactory Media to host baking competition series Biggs Ass Bake Off (w/t).
The arced competition series follows the world’s best bakers aim to go big, so they don’t go home.
Rat In The Kitchen producer Thinkfactory is currently taking the project out to unscripted buyers at the broadcasters and streaming services.
Biggs Ass Bake Off will bring together an assortment of baking pros for the ultimate challenge that will literally have them living, breathing and sleeping baked delights. In the premiere, competitors will enter the show’s baking compound, where they must remain for the entire season, sleeping in the kitchen and perfecting their creations day and night.
Each episode will feature a different 24-hour baking challenge in which the competitors – split into small teams – will be tasked with filling separate top-secret rooms with sweet treats, designing edible scenes based around a specific theme.
Only Biggs will have access to every room, checking in on each team’s progress in the leadup to the final reveals. When time is up, Biggs and a panel of guest judges will observe each room and taste test various pieces of the edible set. As the season moves on, the challenges get harder, the top-secret design rooms that must be filled with baked goods get bigger and the amount of teams get smaller – all leading up to a head-to-head finale.
It is Biggs’ latest move in the unscripted space; the actor, who also appeared in Netflix’s Orange Is The New Black, hosted gameshow Cherries Wild for Fox last year

It's all relative.
Kevin and Frankie Jonas are challenging celebrity relatives to go undercover in a new unscripted series for ABC. The Disney-owned network has ordered Claim to Fame, which comes from Love Is Blind and Married At First Sight producer Kinetic Content.
The series will challenge 12 celebrity relatives to step outside their famous family member’s shadow and live together under one roof, concealing their identity and lineage in the quest for their own fame and fortune. They will compete in challenges, form alliances and play DNA detective in hopes of avoiding elimination and winning the coveted $100,000 prize, and staking their own Claim to Fame.
Kevin Jonas is one of the members of the Jonas Brothers, who starred in Disney Channel’s Camp Rock and also featured in his own E! reality series Married To Jonas alongside his wife Danielle. He was also on The Celebrity Apprentice in 2014 and hosted Pop Culture Live in 2018.
Frankie Jonas, who is not in the band, was one of the voices in 2009 film Ponyo and was a recurring character in Jonas and also made appearances in Kevin’s reality series. He is also a musician and signed with UTA last year after becoming a fast-rising TikTok star.
The series is produced by Kinetic Content in association with Walt Disney Television’s newly formed alternative production unit. Paul Osborne, who has worked on Big Brother and Celebrity Wife Swap, will serve as showrunner and will exec produce alongside Chris Coelen, Eric Detwiler and Scott Teti with Brian Smith as director and executive producer.

Ninja Warrior UK is returning to ITV after three years off air with an updated format in which ordinary contestants face off against "Ninjas" and there will be both a male and female winner.
The show's sixth season from ITV Studios label Potato will enter production in May, seeking two champions for the format based on 25-year-old Japanese show Sasuke in which ordinary people are challenged on an almost impossible assault course that has only ever been fully conquered by one UK person.
Ben Shephard, Chris Kamara and Rochelle Humes will continue to host the eight-parter after a three-year hiatus, having helmed the show since 2015, and the new format will see the ordinary people go up against "Ninjas," a team of professional warrior athletes. It will occupy a Saturday evening slot.
Katie Rawcliffe, ITV's Head of Entertainment Commissioning, said the show will be "all new, enhanced and reinvigorated, containing all the electricity, excitement and entertainment needed to make compulsive Saturday night viewing."
Executive producers are Michael Kelpie, Martin Scott, and Helen Tumbridge and commissioners are Rawcliffe and Kevin O'Brien.

The game-show formats Moneyball and Sitting on a Fortune, both co-produced by ITV Studios labels Potato and Possession, have been renewed for second seasons at ITV.
Hosted by soccer legend Ian Wright, Moneyball sees the chance of winning life-changing money rest entirely on the roll of a ball. The show's second season will give teams of two contestants the chance to accumulate large sums of money by correctly answering a series of questions while keeping their nerve in the countdown to the "moneyball" being played.
Sitting on a Fortune, hosted by footballer and broadcaster Gary Lineker, gives contestants the chance to win up to £100,000 (about $137,000). Featuring six players, six chairs and no lifelines or exits, only the player in the money seat can answer questions, build the jackpot and have the opportunity to win the whole thing. One wrong answer sees that player relegated to the back of the line, as the next person moves up to take pole position.

Before the pandemic, Studio Lambert was set to bust out the moves and start production on a new dance competition series for Netflix.
Two years later, The Circle producer is restarting the choreography on Dance 100.
Ally Love, a Peloton instructor, host of the Brooklyn Nets and founder of Love Squad, is set to host the series, which will start production April 1 in London.
The series is a street dance competition designed to find the next superstar choreographer. Using 100 of the world's best dancers — known as The Dance 100 — the eight contestants must create, choreograph, design and then perform in group dance numbers on an ever-growing and massive scale.
The Dance 100 will then determine who goes home each week. And with every contestant that's eliminated, the number of dancers that the contestants must use grows bigger and therefore more challenging. In the end, the last two remaining contestants must choreograph a massive street dance performance featuring all 100 dancers.
Tim Harcourt, Stephen Yemoh, Saul Fearnley, Stephen Lambert and Jack Burgess are executive producers.+
