'The Bachelorette' 2022: Two-part finale leaves 'Family Feud' fans unhappy as they miss 15-minutes of Simu Liu

The two-part finale of 'The Bachelorette' leaves fans enraged as they question why is it called a finale if the show is not ending

LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA: 'The Bachelorette' Season 19 is nearing the end, with the first installment of the finale airing on Tuesday, September 13. Things have been a little different this time, and fans are not pleased.

On this season of 'The Bachelorette', two single women were given a chance to find love after placing as co-runners up on 'The Bachelor'. Rachel Recchia and Gabby Windey were invited back after being turned down by Clayton Echard on the 26th season of the show. The show recently made another tweak that has fans in a frenzy. The showrunners kicked off the dramatic two-part finale on Tuesday at 8 pm EST on ABC. Due to ABC airing the Emmy Awards last night in its place, the first installment was postponed. On September 20, the second installment of the finale will air on Tuesday.

Fans were anticipating a better ending after being dissatisfied with so many changes this season, including the introduction of two bachelorettes, the cancellation of the Rose and Cocktail ceremonies, and less screen time for each bachelorette. Unfortunately, things did not go as planned when host Jesse Palmer promised a "controversial" finale that would have "all of America" talking. Not only were they upset with the outcome, but many began to wonder what the point of the two-part finale was since it was shot in front of a live studio audience.

A fan wrote how the network could have aired a 3-hour episode instead of splitting it into two episodes, "They really could’ve made this a 3 hour finale and gave us a week off before BIP #TheBachelorette #BachelorNation." Unhappy fans after watching the first part of the finale tweeted, "Me during “the most dramatic season finale ever” #bachelorette #thebachelorette." Another fan quipped, "When the finale is 5 hours and two weeks long but you have no choice but to watch #TheBachelorette #bachelorette." Confused about when the actual finale is, one fan tweeted, "It’s dumb that they call this a 2-part finale when you simply have to wait until the next week to get the ending…? Like no bitch — NEXT WEEK is the finale #TheBachelorette."

Calling out the show for hyping them ahead of the finale, one fan tweeted, "Wait what?? This is not the finale??? WHEN WILL THIS SHOW END??? Also, nothing about tonight’s show warranted an empty soundstage “warning” last week. #TheBachelorettes." Fans also revealed how they would rather trade the next part of the finale with an extensive episode of 'Bachelor in Paradise' premiere, "The only thing that would make this the most shocking and emotional finale is if they just cut it down to a half hour and gave up BIP premiere for the remaining 1.5hrs. Shocking. The emotion? elation. #TheBachelorette #wyatr #TheBachelorettes@annahossnieh." On the other hand, 'Family Feud' fans are equally not happy as they blame 'The Bachelorette' for extending its usual 2-hour runtime, "Can’t believe they cut 15 minutes of Simu Liu on Family Feud to show us more “dramatic” nonsense and DIDN’T EVEN GIVE US A BLOOPER TO WASH THE TASTE OF THE LAST 2 HOURS OUT OF OUR MOUTHS #TheBachelorette." Another fan tweeted, "@ArdenMyrin @annahossnieh #wyatr ABC: Hey... Celebrity Family Feud, we're gonna cut down your hour to allow the 2 hour episode of #thebachelorette have more time CFF: Okay cool we get it finales be crazy ABC: They have 3 hours next week CFF:"

Part 2 of 'The Bachelorette's live season finale will air Tuesday, Sept 20 on ABC.
