What to Know

Critics Consensus

Rachel makes for a lovable Bachelorette, but her season is marred by the series' ill-judged handling of racial dynamics and a denouement that will leave viewers more frustrated than moved.

This season of "The Bachelorette" retained the materialism, manipulation and princess fantasy stuff that's always made the show so damaging. Go to Full Review

If you don't arrive at the conclusion that Rachel should have just picked Eric with his cute-ass beard, you failed. I failed. We all failed. Go to Full Review

Ashley Iaconetti Cosmopolitan 04/30/2019
In my opinion, sprinkling the live segments in with the recorded pieces was unfair for the happy couple, because it put us on an emotional roller coaster in which we felt more attached to Peter. Go to Full Review

10/22/2017 I really like Rachel Lindsay but I didn't like how when ever they said something about her they had to say she was the first black Bachelorette. She is still one of my favorite bachelorette's and I hope her and Brian have a happy life together. See more Read all reviews
