CJ Franco thinks traditional dating shows like “The Bachelor” and “The Bachelorette” need some major overhauls to stay relevant, because — as she’s learned the hard way — dating in real life ain’t all roses and proposals.
We got the hot model and a friend Tuesday outside Olivetta, and got her take on “The Bachelor” franchise … seeing as how she’s one of the stars of HBO Max’s “FBoy Island” … a dating show competitor.
CJ says the premise of her show is more rooted in reality than the ‘Bachelor’ brand … because as she attests, the dating pool is light on Prince Charmings and heavy on so-called “FBoys.”
The latest season of “The Bachelorette” just wrapped with another proposal — although, we’ll see if it lasts — and CJ says folks are getting tired of the same thing over and over again.
With a slew of new dating reality shows on streaming services, she thinks the ‘Bachelor’ franchise has to make some changes … or risk going the way of the dinosaur.
The key to TV success, the way CJ sees it anyway … is making a dating show that’s more relatable to the women and men watching at home.
For those of you who aren’t single, she gives us a painfully honest report on what dating is really like in the trenches. Watch, pretty sure CJ threw a jab at our photog too! 😲
