'Golden Bachelor's 10 Best Contestants, Ranked

The Golden Bachelor premiered on September 28, 2023, and put a senior-focused spin on the iconic Bachelorfranchise. After years of Bachelor Nation being dominated by 20 and 30-year-olds looking for love, The Golden Bachelor was a fresh take on romance and relationships. With widower Gerry Turner as the leading man, the show tackled topics such as losing a spouse and giving love a second chance later in life. And while only one contestant walks away with the final rose on the Bachelor franchise, many of them go down in history as fan favorites.
