Summary

BachelorClues and PaceCase break down their Top 10 Takeaways from The Golden Bachelor Season 2—one of the most chaotic, perplexing, and unforgettable seasons in franchise history. From Mel O’s unprecedented pre-season scandal and historically low ratings to Cindy’s masterclass self-elimination, Nicolle’s open-power villainy, Peg’s superstar rise, and the shockingly stacked player pool, the hosts dive deep into what worked, what failed, and what this season means for the future of the Golden franchise. They also reveal behind-the-scenes stories, including Clues’ cameo in the document, and explore how Season 2 may mark a true turning point for the entire Bachelorverse.
