Good luck to all.

Other than Tuttle and his new love interest, who cares? Do we need a mormon version of every stupid TV show or mainstream publicity stunt that comes along? What's next "Big Loser Mormon"? time to rise above and not simply try to put a crease in shoddy jeans.

Nice to know integrity counts, and even in television, it's not all "done for the cameras."

What would be wrong with Big Loser Mormon? It's not as if many of our members couldn't use it! Moderation in all things--including food--is something many of us don't include in to the Word of Wisdom, though it's plainly there.

I agree, who cares? The whole premise of the show is stupid in the first place. You've got a good looking guy with everything in the world going for him and he decides that he wants to get married. But apparently he's such an amazing catch that they have to have a tv show competition where female contestants compete for his love? How pathetic. How am I supposed to identify with these people? You know what would get me to care about this show? Choose an average looking guy, heck maybe even bordering unattractive, low confidence, etc., and make him the bachelor. Then get regular looking girls maybe the ones around in singles wards that never get asked out because they are overshadowed by the attractive successful girls and make them the contestants. Show people that falling in love doesn't have anything to do with looking like a hollywood model and having tons of money and an awesome job.

Congratulations. That is wonderful that you found someone. It will leave the space open for someone else to find love. Why criticize? If you don't want to see this then it is okay to not watch it or even take the time reading about The Mormon Bachelor. I think getting normal people would be better. I like sanpaco's idea. There are many girls who never get asked out. Help them out.

I would like to echo speed66's comment, who really cares? As I am well outside of the desired demographic, I find it somewhat odd that people appear to need to place themselves in the public eye via various forms of electronic media including broadcast television. Courtship is a personal journey for two people. It has enough emotion as two people begin to decide if they want to share life's journey together. What is lacking in their lives that requires a gallery of unknown spectators to observe, comment or fantasize over what is or should be a personal experience?

For the record, I have never watched the show.
