Chris Harrison has watched people fall in and out of love on television for 15 years, but the emotional journey of watching former Bachelors and Bachelorettes find the one still gets to him — especially Rachel Lindsay‘s journey.
“I host so many shows, but this show touches me,” the longtime ABC host told People at The Bachelorette: Men Tell All taping. “That’s why I come back and do it, because I care about these people.”
Adds Harrison, 46: “Rachel and I went through this journey together. You can’t be this disengaged robot. When you’re going through it,...

Bachelor in Paradise is almost here!
With Taylor Nolan and Corinne Olympios on the same beach, there's sure to be plenty of drama, but after last season's record three proposals (and two subsequent breakups) the pressure is on to bring the romance!
Watch: Vinny Ventiera, Jasmine Goode & More Joining Corinne Olympios, Amanda Stanton & More on 'Bachelor in Paradise'
Check out which cast members we think will hook up for a little baja lovin' below:
Taylor Nolan and Derek Peth
ABC
Taylor clearly needs someone with emotional intelligence, and Derek, a former commercial banker, might just fit the bill. Derek showed the world just how in touch he was with his emotional side with his river of tears after JoJo Fletcher eliminated him on her season of The Bachelorette -- and he looks just like John Krasinski!
Amanda Stanton and Ben Zorn

Amanda clearly has a thing for Bens, and this one...

Nick Viall on ‘Disappointing’ Corinne Questions and Which Bachelor Lady He Can’t Stop Thinking About
He was devastated twice on The Bachelorette and had a summer fling on Bachelor in Paradise, and now Nick Viall is looking to find a love that lasts as The Bachelor‘s latest leading man. Read his exclusive blog for People every week and follow him at Twitter, @viallnicholas28!
Hey guys, so we’re back this week and coming off a pretty honest conversation with Vanessa. The pool party had been going great, but clearly took a turn when the women saw Corinne and me in the bounce castle.
It is disappointing to hear so many of the women question Corinne.

Out of the gate on The Bachelor season 21, Corinne established herself as the villain. It is a title that she has never come close to relinquishing as the season has progressed. But Corinne is only one part of the villain equation. Every show on Bachelor Nation, be it The Bachelor, The Bachelorette or even Bachelor in Paradise, has a villain, but the villain also needs an adversary. In week 4, Taylor made her play to be Corinne's nemesis. Is 23-year-old Taylor the heroine of the season, though, or is she just as bad Corinne?...

It's Corinne's world, we just live in it. And beg for roses.
On The Bachelor Season 21 Episode 2, the competition for Nick's attention heated up, and it's time to breakdown all three dates.
It's only been one night and all of the women are already in love with Nick, so we're right on track. Also, it will never be normal to watch 22 women gush over being interested in the same man.
When Chris Harrison told the group that not all of them were going to have time with Nick this week, their faces dropped like he just told them Nick was terminally ill.
I’ve never been a bridesmaid. I think I’m just a natural born bride.

Trust me, I was as shocked as you were when I was first asked to be the Bachelor. Believe it or not, I thought each season of The Bachelorette would be my last, and Bachelor in Paradise was no different. So, when I was asked to be the Bachelor it was avery surreal moment.

In a sneak peek at Monday's episode of The Bachelorette, JoJo Fletcher plays a game of Truth or Dare with a few of the guys – and let's just say things get a little more risqué with Robby Hayes than they do with James Taylor.
When Hayes picks dare, Fletcher, 25, tells him he has to strip down to his underwear and run through the hallways of their hotel ... so of course, he obliges.

As "The Bachelorette" approaches its finale, we find ourselves breathlessly wondering: Will Des find love? Is there hope for happily ever after?
Our heroine and her suitors have vacillated between professions of endless devotion and desperate cries of frustration, but their valiant search for wedded bliss has always been sprinkled with the stuff of fairy tales. The most starry-eyed of "The Bachelorette" confessions are almost Swift-esque -- tinted with a longing for love that seems to be plucked from the heart of the poet herself.

Whether you measure your movies by box office, reviews, or popular appeal, Sony’s $125 million remake of the 1990 Ah-nuld Schwarzenegger interplanetary action fest Total Recall looks like a strike-out. The movie opened with a lethal softness; a $25.7 million first weekend meaning Recall won’t even come close to making back its budget during its domestic theatrical run. In fact, despite 22 years of ticket price increases, it’s doubtful the movie will even match the original’s $119.3 million haul.
And for those of you who think maybe the problem is Total Recall was outgunned opening while The Dark Knight Rises was still sucking up box office coin, entertain, at least for a moment if you will, the possibility the movie just plain sucks. According to Rotten Tomatoes’ canvas, almost 70% of reviewers – and over three-quarters of “top critics” – gave Total Recall a thumbs-down. Those who went to see the movie didn’t...
