The Golden Bachelorette has premiered on the 2024 TV schedule , and already I can feel the sour cynicism that crept in when Gerry and Theresa announced their divorce melting away. Joan Vassos and the suitors cast to woo her on this spinoff’s inaugural season have already won me over, and a week after the contestants went viral for their hilarious appraisal of Bachelor Mansion , a deleted scene of some of the guys doing a synchronized swimming routine is more proof that the Golden series is doing it right. Perhaps the guys on The Golden Bachelorette were inspired by the best performances of the Paris Olympics , because a handful of them executed a fantastic synchronized swimming routine that, for whatever reason, wasn’t included in the September 25 episode.
Thankfully, the deleted scene has been released on Instagram for our viewing pleasure, and it really does highlight what I love most about this show: the camaraderie. Check it out for yourself below: A post shared by The Golden Bachelorette (@thegoldenbacheloretteabc) A photo posted by on Just like we saw with Gerry Turner’s amazing cast on The Golden Bachelor — introducing us to women like Susan Noles, Leslie Fhima and Kathy “Zip it” Swarts — Joan Vassos’ season features a group of men with an astonishing lack of ego. It doesn’t feel like the men on The Golden Bachelorette are in competition with each other for a woman; it feels like they’re grateful to meet Joan and for the opportunity to inherit a bun.
