After 13 seasons — and probably 13 breakups — why are people still watching "The Bachelor"? The show doesn't have the greatest track record. Only two of the 13 couples are still together — one after a short breakup and the other with a domestic abuse record. Apparently, this isn't the way to really meet your soulmate. But people still watch with their hearts, pick and choose favorites and somehow are surprised when the breakup is announced three months later on the cover of US Weekly.
From what I hear, last night the bachelor didn't even wait until the show's end to ditch the girl he'd chosen in the final ceremony — all because he couldn't get the other girl off his mind. In the real world, we call this cheating. That's miserable enough on its own. Why would anyone enjoy watching a so-called "good guy" do this to other women?
But, I'd like to put you "Bachelor" fans to the test with a game of Name that Bachelor. We're going to skip the bachlorettes. Since everyone seems to be such a big fan, I want to know if you guys can actually remember all their names — no cheating (for the first time in "Bachelor" history) and here goes!
Season 1
Season 2
Season 3
Season 4
Season 5
Season 6
Season 7
Season 8
Season 9
Season 10
Season 11
Season 12
Season 13
If you think this is easy breezy, name the woman awarded final roses.

I have decided I think No. 8 is the cutest bachelor. He's such a Hottie McHotterson!
Noooo--no. 8 was such a d-bag! No. 12 has been the hottest, hands-down.
Whatever! No. 12 was such a dork!! You're letting the accent sway you.
