Bachelor in Paradise is returning to ABC, and also to paradise, come summer 2015.
ABC has ordered a second season of the spinoff series that finds The Bachelor and The Bachelorette alumni living together in a tropical setting.
As they look for love, drama and utter nonsense ensues. But darned if it’s not fun!
Paradise is something of a replacement for Bachelor Pad, the summer competition spinoff that aired for three seasons (2010-12) before getting axed.
The Pad was all about Big Brother-style games and trying to win money, whereas Paradise is all about love (though confusing rules apply to both throughout).
The news comes on the heels of confirmation that the network named Chris Soules The Bachelor for its 19th (yes, 19th) season, kicking off in January.
And just as ABC renewed Bachelor in Paradise, its inaugural finale airs tonight.
What will happen? Who’ll find love? What other epic, ridiculous twists await?
We have no clue, but you can watch Bachelor in Paradise online afterward and find out, and in the meantime, scroll through a hot gallery of its cast:
