Long-running series like The Bachelor are known for bringing back talent in front of the lens. And based on a recent move at ABC's hit reality franchise, it seems that the trend exists behind the camera as well.
Deadline reported Thursday that Jason Ehrlich is rejoining the team as a consulting producer after exiting Bachelor Nation last year. He had been with the franchise for more than 20 years leading up to 2024.
As Deadline noted, the seasoned TV producer is working on the upcoming season of The Golden Bachelor, which is set to return to ABC on Sept. 24. He had served as executive producer of the recently launched spinoff's first season.
The Golden Bachelor premiered in September 2023, with Gerry Turner as the eponymous single lad. The first season concluded with Theresa Nist marrying the restaurateur, who was 72 at the time. They divorced three months after tying the knot in January 2024.
Ehrlich, who began working at The Bachelor way back in 2003, departed the franchise last year amid claims revealed by Deadline that Claire Freeland and Bennett Graebner — who began running things with Ehrlich in March 2023 — ran a "toxic" and "hostile" environment. But Ehrlich wasn't a part of the claims.
Since leaving Bachelor Nation, Ehrlich has been exec producing the Hulu dating series Love Overboard.
Outside of ABC's reality franchise, he has kept busy producing other small-screen projects over the years, such as The World's Best (2019) and Shatner in Space (2021).
In other Bachelor news, fans recently voiced their interest in seeing Gleb Savchenko from Dancing With the Stars on the reality dating show.
When the DWTS pro, 41, confirmed through a TikTok post on Aug. 14 that he won't be returning for season 34 of the competition show, Savchenko didn't exactly shoot down the idea of joining The Bachelor.
When a fan commented, “Why are you not on the BACHELOR?” Savchenko simply replied, "I’m down."
