Becca Kufrin.
A confident modern travelogue with a likable center. A Minnesota publicist drawn from the prior Bachelor season takes the calendar, and the producers run eleven episodes with dates in Richmond, Utah, the Bahamas, Thailand, and the Maldives. The casting reads warm and the location work does real editorial lifting rather than serving as backdrop. The lead carries the season with a grounded, unflustered presence that suits the format. A solid hold in the deep middle of the modern run.
