There are many things which I have learned about the world and myself by watching The Bachelor, and most of them are “goddamn I am glad that I am married”, but also it’s this: Osher Günsberg is very, very good on Twitter.
In fact, I’ve developed an unexpected new respect for Mr G and his Twitter game, which is rakishly on point.
See, in a world when most public figures tend to be as anodyne as possible as though horrified at the thought of expressing an opinion, Osher is happy to offer some (gentle, reasonable) pushback when people drag his show.
Or one-upping people’s sassy digs:
Or talking through the production specifics of making television:
…including how his job works…
But even so, it doesn’t stop him taking a moment to bask in the wonder of the show as a viewer.
And heaven help you if you dare level the slightest of doubts about the authenticity of Osher Günsberg his love of Survivor, which makes his love of The Bachelor pale in comparison. Dude legitimately froths on it, make no mistake.
Mr Günsberg, we salute your efforts. Everyone else in television, consider your social media, compare it with Osher’s, and make the necessary adjustments. We’ll wait.
