All of these shows have managed to create excitement and anticipation among fans, keeping them on the edge of their seats for every new episode.
The great storytelling and suspense have made these shows the topic of discussion among the viewers for this week.
'The Golden Bachelor' star Gerry Turner marries Theresa Nist
'The Golden Bachelor' star Gerry Turner tied the knot with Theresa Nist in a live televised wedding on January 4, 2024.
Their wedding special was filmed at the plush La Quinta Resort & Club.
For the big day, Nist opted for a Badgley Mishka mermaid gown that featured a plunging neckline, lace straps, and a tulle train with a crystal-studded veil.
On the other hand, when we talk about Gerry, he looked dapper in a classic black tux.
The pair's wedding was a star-studded affair and it was attended by many 'Bachelor Nation' stars, including Trista Sutter and Ryan Sutter, Ben Higgins and Wells Adams, Mari Pepin and Kenny Braasch, Michelle Young and Jack Leius, Rachel Recchia, Desiree Hartsock and Chris Siegfried, Jason and Molly Mesnick, Ashley Iaconetti and Jared Haibon, Raven Gates and Adam Gottschalk, Dean Unglert and Caelynn Miller-Keyes.
Turner and Nist got engaged during the grand finale of ABC's dating show 'The Golden Bachelor'.
Hans calls Simon Cowell 'b***h' before coming after 'AGT' judge's job
This week's 'America's Got Talent: Fantasy League' included Hans, better known as Matt Gilbertson, the "sex symbol" and past 'America's Got Talent' quarterfinalist.
And, true to form, he didn't pull any punches in his first audition.
When he returned this time, one of his declared goals was to get Simon Cowell to crack and give him a nice evaluation.
Despite originally handing Hans a "yes" in his first appearance, the judge has since stated that "it's torture" or "terrible singing" regarding Hans' act. Hans sang Elton John's 'The Bitch is Back' at his audition.
It's appropriate because Hans exclaimed, "I'm back!" when he took the stage. Following his criticism, he had a caustic argument with the executive producer during his first performance on Heidi Klum's Dream Team.
"I know you love it, Simon, from one b***h to another!" he shrieked.
Hans finished the song by pointing toward Simon. "If I'm being honest with you, he can't sing, and he can't dance," he remarked. "If I can't sing, and I can't dance, then when am I taking over your job, babe?"
Hans clapped back in what will undoubtedly go down as one of the most brilliant replies in 'AGT' history.
