Despite fans’ lukewarm reaction and critics’ mediocre reviews (at best), ABC is totally running back Bachelor Pad a second time this summer. 

Casting will begin at a party this very weekend.

“If you’re on the invite, then you’re in the running to become a contestant on Bachelor Pad,” a source said of the sexy reality star gathering.

Please, let these two idiots be among the new cast members

Next Entertainment, the production company that owns The Bachelor, Bachelorette and Bachelor Pad, is assembling as many as 65 BP hopefuls.

The invite bringing the castoffs from past seasons together promises an open bar, suggests cocktail attire, and is an on-camera event itself.

Everyone has to sign a waiver of release so they can be on camera and they plan to air footage on The Bachelor‘s “The Women Tell All.”

 
“The producers are trying to pick their characters and come up with the cryer, the drunk and the angry contestant,” said an inside source.

Lucky Bachelor Pad winners Dave Good and Natalie Getz won the $250,000 prize in the first season of the show, which aired last summer. 

Despite a shaky, nonsensical premise and an oddball cast of characters, the season featured plenty of drama, tears and bed hopping.

In other words, good enough to make it work.

“I’m sure they will be shooting in the Spring again, though there are no definite dates,” said the source of Bachelor Pad’s second season.

Sounds plain awesome. These people definitely need another 15 minutes. We’ll pass along any Bachelor spoilers (and Pad spoilers) we hear.
