'The Bachelor' Season 24 might be nearing its end, but fans are still dissing this season's contestants and Peter Weber himself. 

Over the past month and a half since 'The Bachelor' Season 24 premiered, there has been a lot that went down between Peter and his women, and most of the drama we witnessed was unnecessary. Starting from the return of Hannah Brown, champagne gate, the return of Alayah, Tammy and Mykenna's tiff, Kelly's bad edit up to Victoria F's recent disappointing homewrecking drama that was just swept under the rug. 

Through it all, one thing was prominent, this season was a total catastrophe. Fans have been calling this season, tedious and disappointing, not just because of the cast, but mainly because of Peter, because he didn't make it any easier either. 



 

He has made quite a few baffling decisions that no other bachelor has done before, starting from craving to see his women cry, eliminating the genuine women to keeping a homewrecker on the show. And just when we think it couldn't get any worse, it does the very next episode. 

After watching everything that went down each week, fans on Reddit affirm that they were robbed from having a better bachelor like Mike Johnson and instead was given cringeworthy Peter. Fans state that Mike would have handled all these situations in a better way, and not behave in a petty way like Peter. They also added that Mike would have sent Victoria F home a long time back. 

"This cast has been disappointing and tedious as hell, but Peter hasn't made it any easier on viewers with the decisions he's been making," a fan wrote. Adding to that another said, "He is becoming less and less attractive to me with every picture I see of him. Not that I really found him very attractive to begin with, but it’s becoming cringey at this point."

"I can’t with this season. whispery, whiny Fictoria voice 'Like, I’m trying so harrrd.' But really, what is going on? They robbed Mike and gave us this nonsense," a fan wrote. Another said, "I totally agree! Peter might be the worst Bachelor. He’s definitely not ready for marriage or even a serious relationship in my opinion." 



 

"My husband keeps saying 'can you imagine how mike would’ve reacted?!' and it just makes me sad to think about what could’ve been," a fan said.

Another wrote, "Each time I think about how we could've had Mike as Bachelor instead of Peter I get sad. Then I immediately hear Lizzo singing "you could've had a bitch" and picture Mike's smile. So sad, things would've been so different, truth hurts indeed." 

"Mike would have seen through Fictoria’s crap and eliminated her earlier on. Omg, Natasha would def be top 4. I would have loved to see Mike’s beautiful face on screen even if there was petty drama. This is just too much and not worth it lol," a fan shared. Adding to that, another said, "Mike would deliver a much better season with this cast."
