Your Official Source of Bachelor Wisdom

Went to get another much needed scoop of Double Mint Chocolate Chip ice cream during a television show and don’t have DVR.  Never fear.  Just check your Twitter feed to catch up on anything interesting you may have missed.  Not surprisingly, this experience is witnessed on significant events such as Inauguration Day and Super Bowl Sunday.  However, it is also carried through in prime form on Bachelor Mondays

For the 2 hour period of show time and beyond, Bachelor watchers tweet constantly about the spectrum of events happening on the show in real time.  In fact, one could essentially have her television turned off and be able to keep pace with every juicy detail through her Twitter feed. 

@BachelorABC uses tactics throughout the week, as well as during the show, to create buzz and entice viewers to tune in.  By soliciting viewer opinions and pictures of fans’ “watching parties,” ABC engages dedicated Bachelor lovers everywhere. 

However, what would the Bachelor be without a little chemistry and a limo-full of drama?  While ABC does maintain an interactive and promotional feed, we must all say a little “Thank You” to the Twitter universe for the creation of the @TierrasEyebrow account.  Viewers are arguably more tuned into their Twitter feeds than the show as they become more and more entertained by the antics of their friends’ and anon accounts that offer witty, laugh-out-loud tweets. 

Not a member of the Bachelornation?  First off, your loss.  Secondly, be sure to stay away from Twitter from 8-10 PM on Monday nights, else have your feed be consumed with #Bachelor and #Tierrable hashtags.  But realize- nonetheless- that history is being made here, people, both in the Twitter social media arena and in the heart of the finest Bachelor of all time.
