The Bachelor (Seasons 1–29)

The Bachelor (2002) is the American reality dating series from ABC that you can watch online on iFILM. Thirty-plus seasons in, it remains one of network television's most durable formats — and the clear template for every romantic competition show that followed.

Each season plants one man among a group of women who narrow down through group dates, one-on-ones, and rose ceremonies. The structure is fixed; the drama is not. Alliances form, feelings shift, and people routinely forget the cameras in ways that are difficult to script. A proposal waits at the end — theoretically.

Hosted for most of its run by Chris Harrison and more recently Jesse Palmer, the show also launched a constellation of spin-offs. Stream The Bachelor online on iFILM.
