BUDAPEST, HUNGARY: Is something wrong with ABC? That's what fans have been asking since the March 6 episode of 'The Bachelor' Season 27 hit the network. Viewers were not able to hear stars talking in the show.

Instead, there is only music playing in the background. Viewers could not hear Zach Shallcross or anyone else's voice. This seems to have irritated viewers and many of them took to social media to criticize both the network and the show for the sound issues. Fans flooded the internet with messages like "what's with the sound?" and wondered in confusion if ABC intentionally just played music during the first few minutes of the episode or if there was a glitch with the broadcast of 'The Bachelor.' The same thing happened once again in the finale episode of ‘The Bachelor’ Season 27 on March 27. While Zach was on a date with Gabi Elnicki, the sound turned off. Since it was the finale, fans got irritated with not being able to hear the voice and finding it hard to interpret what’s happening on date by reading lips.

'Where’s the sound?'

After hearing no sound in the first few minutes of the show, a fan tweeted, "Where’s the sound?" Another asked other viewers, "not y’all having sound issues." A fan wondered, "What is going on with the audio on #TheBachelor? Background sound, but no conversation?" "BRUHH I even switched to watching it on my computer but it’s just the sh***y a** music where are the people speaking," tweeted a fan seeing no sound other than background music.



 



 



 



 

'Hallelujah the sound is back'

After a certain period of time when the sound didn't return on the show, a fan asked, "does anyone else have no sound on the bachelor or is it just me ?" To this, a bunch of other viewers replied that they have also been facing the same issue with the show. A fan said the situation was, "Sooo annoying!!!" Another slammed the network saying, "hello @ABCNetwork the bachelor and half your ads don’t have full audio?? music but can’t hear anyone talking?" Thankfully, the sound did return after a few minutes. A fan cheered, "HALLELUJAH THE SOUND IS BACK."
