Jake Pavelka, The Bachelor to Premiere January 4

As we reported last month, commercial pilot Jake Pavelka, who failed to capture Jillian Harris’ heart on The Bachelorette, but made quite an impression when he "heroically" returned to rat out Wes Hayden, will star on The Bachelor this winter.

With 25 women vying for him, Jake will make his debut Monday, January 4 on ABC, starring on this special new season with the supremely cheesy title of ...

... wait for it, it's worse than you think:

The Bachelor: On the Wings of Love!

While fellow rejectees from last season Kiptyn Locke and Reid Rosenthal would have been more popular choices, we expect America will warm to Jake.

Look at the man. We've never seen a gentleman so ready for 15 minutes of fame love. Other proposed titles for the season of Jake Pavelka included:

• The Bachelor: The Plane Truth
• The Bachelor: Ready for (Love to) Takeoff
• The Bachelor: Sully Who?!?
• The Bachelor: Respect the Cockpit
  
• The Bachelor: Mile High Club
• The Bachelor: Eat it, Wes!!
• The Bachelor: On Autopilot... of Love!

Just kidding. Well, about most of them. A couple aren't much worse than what they actually chose. We would have loved to be in the pitch meeting that day.

What do you think of Jake Pavelka as The Bachelor?
