Talk:The Bachelor (American TV series) season 20

Lauren Bushnell
Right now we have a reliable source for Lauren being from Marina Del Rey - the ABC website. Where's the reliable source for West Linn, Oregon? Tabercil (talk) 17:32, 14 February 2016 (UTC)


 * West Linn is a town south of Portland. These sources are given: The Oregonian dated 2016-01-06 and the article notes:

"Portland women made a big splash on 'The Bachelor' Season 20 premiere Monday night, but for very different reasons. Which is a polite way of saying former Portlander-turned-SoCal flight attendant Lauren Bushnell ('Lauren B,' on the show) zipped to the front of the bachelorette pack early, while Portland dentist Amanda 'Mandi' Kremer raised eyebrows among her fellow contestants by arriving with a gigantic rose hat."
 * And a NBC-affiliated KGW TV website dated 2016-01-19 also notes within that article and says:

As the hit reality TV romance series, The Bachelor continued into its third week, the flight attendant from West Linn got the highly treasured one-on-one date with Ben Higgins, along with another rose. For her date, Lauren Bushnell hopped aboard a banana-colored biplane with Ben, which she was actually a little afraid of. Not to disappoint, the Bachelor producers made sure to tease the girls left behind, by asking the pilot to fly the plane flew over enemy territory–the Bachelor mansion. When Ben and Lauren B. deplaned in the middle of nowhere, they discovered a hot tub, in true Bachelor fashion. Later, during dinner, Ben gave her the rose then the couple danced in a barn to Lucy Angel, a country trio.
 * Those sources shown above do meet a significant coverage with reliable sources, according to her home video in the first episode she hails from Portland and lives in California for three years. ApprenticeFan  work 12:41, 15 February 2016 (UTC)

Special episode
The episode I just removed should not be included because a) it has nothing to do with Ben and therefore unnotable for this season and b) the primary source doesn't state anyting. Episodes that have nothing to do with the current running of the show should be not be included. If to be mentioned, it should belong on the main article perhaps but not on this article.

 * I should agree with that. Last season was having a sole special episode Chris Tells All, the four specials from two seasons earlier including Countdown to Juan Pablo, The Bachelor Love Stories and Sean and Catherine's Wedding, and the prior special the year before, Sean Tells All in which of them they should not be included in Sean, Juan Pablo and Chris' journeys during their quests for love. In addition to above, Jason and Molly's Wedding was aired a week after season 14 ended. Maybe shall removed all of these for right standards. ApprenticeFan  work 02:49, 18 February 2016 (UTC)
 * It would be right to remove them. I would maybe suggest making a new section on The Bachelor (U.S. TV series) and add an episode table for such special episodes. Callmemirela  🍁  &#123;Talk&#125;   &#9809;  03:06, 18 February 2016 (UTC)
 * @Callmemirela; @ApprenticeFan How is this the primary source? This is the official website. At the very least, the Chris Tells All and Sean Tells All episodes should be kept. Chris and Sean are talking about the season so far with Chris Harrison just like the women do in The Women Tell All. I don't know why you say that they have "have nothing to do with the current running of the show". 74thClarkBarHG (talk) 02:22, 25 February 2016 (UTC)
 * Disneyabcpress is also a primary source. Primary sources aren't always official websites. I meant the special episode that aired during season 20 has nothing to do with Ben. As for the rest, it has to have meaning with the season. Sean & Catherine's wedding can be added into Sean's season. That is a discussion for his season's talk page. I never said that the Women Tell All and so on should be removed entirely. Callmemirela  🍁  &#123;Talk&#125;   &#9809;  02:28, 25 February 2016 (UTC)
 * Callmemirela: The Women/Men Tell All and After the Final Rose are always included in the summary for every season of The Bachelor and The Bachelorette. I know Women/Mell Tell All discussing thoughts from experiences on the eliminated contestants (the notable exclusion was Courtney from The Bachelor, season 16 sat the audience and gave an apology to her fellow contestants from that season), and After the Final Rose is about the show lead's final pick and future plans.

 * I am very aware of that. What is exactly your point? You're telling me something that I already know. I never said to remove episodes that had to do with season's running or the person involved of the season. You were the one that added the special that had nothing to do with Ben which is why it shouldn't be included. Callmemirela  🍁  &#123;Talk&#125;   &#9809;  03:06, 25 February 2016 (UTC)
 * @Callmemirela You said "Episodes that have nothing to do with the current running of the show should be not be included." After ApprenticeFan suggested to remove Sean Tells All and Chris Tells All you agreed. I'm aware that you never said that The Women Tell All should be removed; I was saying how those episodes are similar to Sean Tells All and Chris Tells All. If we're keeping The Women Tell All episodes, we should also keep the episodes where The Bachelor tells all. When The Bachelor tells all it's him discussing thoughts from experiences on the eliminated contestants. 74thClarkBarHG (talk) 05:26, 25 February 2016 (UTC)
