Product Description

Exclusive home video edition of Season One of the hit reality series about an exciting quest for love - with over 30 minutes of scintillating never-before-seen footage. Management consultant Alex Michel is the single man who enters a dating minefield of dinners, horseback rides and romantic getaways in which the locales (Las Vegas, Santa Barbara, Manhattan, and Hawaii's Kona) are exotic, the hopes are high and competition among the 25 ladies sometimes borders on the low-down.

5.0 out of 5 stars Voyeuristic reality TV at its sexiest, September 22, 2002

By A Customer

This review is from: Best of the Bachelor [VHS] (VHS Tape)

One complaint that I had with "Best Of Survivor Season One" was that it was a truncated, piece-meal version of the original series that cut out some of the most memorable scenes of the show, like Sue's infamous 'snake-eat-rat' tribal council speech. "Best of The Bachelor" showcases the series in its entirety as it was broadcasted (though somewhat edited for time) and features some never-before-seen bonus interview footage at the end of the tape. Even if you have never seen the show, the video will take you right from the tumultuous beginning all the way up to the climactic ending, no pun intended :) For fans of the show and other reality date-o-holics, this video is sure to please your palate.

5.0 out of 5 stars A definite for ABC's "The Bachelor" addicts, March 2, 2006

By	JENNMM77 "JENNMM77" (HILLSBOROUGH, NJ) - See all my reviews

The season that started it all!! The season that brought us the exquisite Trista Rehn!!! This DVD has got it all including extra features showing extended interviews, dates and commentary. Each show is edited into a tidy 20 minutes (approx.) so you get the richness of the show without the tiresome, heart-pounding pauses.

What I can't understand is why the other seasons haven't been released in this format, especially Trista's Bachelorette season! Her wedding was viewed by millions and to date, her relationship constructed on the show is the only one that has resulted in such a union.

Chant with me everyone:

"WE WANT MORE!! WE WANT MORE!! WE WANT MORE!!"

4.0 out of 5 stars See What You Didn't See, August 21, 2005

By	Lee Neville "Lee" (London, ENGLAND) - See all my reviews

This is a very well presented DVD. What you get are mini-versions of the episodes from Season 1 of the reality show THE BACHELOR.

Added bonuses included previously unseen material This is good stuff. What you get to see are the things you want to see. More of the romance, more of the drama, more of the potential sex, more of the fun. There's also more of Amanda- a definite good thing in my book. If you're a fan of the show I recommend this DVD, and if you're not, you may find yourself fascinated by the exploits and becoming a fan yourself.
