Why Ten and Osher Günsberg are still banking on the Bachelor franchise
Ahead of tonight’s premiere of the second season of Bachelor In Paradise, Mumbrella’s Hannah Blackiston speaks with host Osher Günsberg about why consumers engage with the show and what that means commercially for Australia’s third commercial television network.
If you’re speaking to Osher Günsberg about his work in TV, chances are it’s regarding the Bachelor franchise. He’s been the emotive frontman of the show and its spin-offs since it first hit screens in 2013, and his name has become synonymous with Ten’s reality programming. But before we begin discussing Bachelor in Paradise, the newest addition to the franchise in Australia and the first one which will hit screens when it premieres tonight, there’s a more pressing question. Will 2019 be the year we see Günsberg take out the Gold Logie?
Unfortunately for me, when I ask Günsberg what he thinks his chances are, he looks it up while I’m on the phone. The outlook isn’t good.
Great article! That Grant Denyer better not win the Logie.
