      Audience Member I didn't like Nick before but he has really grown on me and now he is one of my favorite bachelor's so far. I could not stand that Corinne on his season she was so annoying and rude to the other girls. I always thought it was sad that he always was the runner up on his two season of the Bachelorette. I hope he finds love in the future. Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 01/09/23 Full Review Read all reviews Post a rating

      Megan Garber The Atlantic The Bachelor has found something that might well be as compelling, good-TV-wise, as villainy: forgiveness. The Bachelor has always relied on fairy tale frames for its narrative drama; now, it will be Nick [Viall]... Sep 18, 2019 Full Review Caitlin PenzeyMoog AV Club I have to wonder if The Bachelor's heart is in it. Not The Bachelor, but the show itself. Sep 18, 2019 Full Review Seth Kelley Variety The real fun begins when Nick [Viall] shows us how self-aware he is. He mumbles, he doesn't make eye contact, he touches his face a lot and he's very long-winded. What a catch!. Sep 18, 2019 Full Review Sarah Hearon TV Fanatic It's so interesting to see flashbacks of Nick from his days on The Bachelorette because he is so much better looking now. He earned his right to post shirtless selfies. Rated: 4.5/5.0 Sep 18, 2019 Full Review Brandy Zadrozny The Daily Beast If an accomplished, suitably-aged woman of color can believe in Nick [Viall] , maybe we can, too. Sep 18, 2019 Full Review Alexis Rhiannon Decider Last night was the first episode of a noir-esque, mystery programme entitled The Case of Nick's Missing Likability.
