I have enormous respect for him when he said the ideal age range is 60-70. I'm sure producers will push the envelope on it, but Gerry is the real deal, wholesome, and has his priorities in order. He desires someone with equal amount of wisdom and life experience.

I'll watch when one of those gorgeous ladies is the Bachelorette and has men eleven years younger to four years older vying for HER attentions. That means the 60 year old will be courted by men 49-64 year old, and the 75 year old will be courted by men ages 64-79.

What a sweet, intelligent, kind and soft spoken man. I hope he finds gentle and happy love ❤

He is the full package. His attitude, articulate manner, and positivity just sparkles. I know he will have a positive impact on, but it looks like to date after 60 and that love and happiness is entirely possible after loss of your long-term spouse. I will be watching for sure.

he’s so sweet and pure, i can’t wait for this

Same thought. He seems kind and wise. We need more people like him.

He's going to be great. You know my grandfather was married to my grandmother for 49 years before died of lung cancer. He loved her and felt so alone after. He was 75 when she died and he remarried a year and half later. He needed the companionship. He still had a picture of my grandmother next to his bed and in his wallet. My grandfather lived to 95 and passed away in 2019. I will say at 11 years old, I was upset when he remarried, but now as adult I understand. Gerry's love for his wife is strong and real, but he still young. He could live another 25 years. Having that person just enjoy life with will be good for him. Hoping he finds love.

He is a very sincere man I hope production will not blow his mind by doing toxic things

Omg this man is too pure for the show! Protect him at all costs❣️

Honestly I haven’t been excited for the Bachelor in a really long time,and no bachelor/bachelorette has ever been able to make me tear up or cry no matter how romantic the proposal is (just always seemed phony to me)…but after watching Gerry’s promos and interviews, I am SO incredibly excited for this season!!!! Finally a normal mature man who’s not there to play tonsil hockey with all the women! And not only that, but Gerry’s story about Toni and how he got so emotional regarding his wife’s death made me fucking CRY. Jesus Christ, we need to protect this man at all costs, and I sincerely hope that he finds that special lady❤

I'm so excited for him! He seems so incredible and very much in it for the right reasons! He reminds me of my very intelligent late grandfather. This will be a great show!

I think he is the complete package! I applied, but did not get The Call! Can't wait for the show!

Can’t wait! I always wanted to see a mature bachelor/bachelorette show.

What a wonderful man .

I have been waiting for this show for some time.

I like the idea of this new show. Will see how will run the show and the candidates. Its time to see something different, more mature and less drama queens ( and plastic) He sounds very genuine. Great candidate! I wish all the best.

I’m so excited for his season! 🥰

He’s a true example of love is possible

Being 61 myself, I'm looking forward to seeing Gerry's love life play out. I hope there'll be a lot less drama than the younger set, and that he'll find a real "down to earth" gal he can find something deep with. I also hope he'll be able to not compare his new love interest to his long time love/marriage. This will definitely be a brand new uncharted path for him. I'm enamored with him already. Can't wait to see him in action.😍🌹🥰🎉

Hope he finds a good love match.🌹

Am looking forward to show

I CAN’T FREAKING WAIT! WE RIDE FOR GERRY 🤲

Can't wait to watch.

What a true gentleman! He could cross my path any day.

He must have been a very kind and loving husband for his daughters to push him to apply. I can't imagine it would easy to see your dad with someone other than your mom.

He seems like a great guy !

Love this guy!

He’s so adorable

Such a great man. I put in my application in - but did not get the call. Darn. Would have been amazing to date Gerry.

I hope the producers don't screw him over...i don't think they will though,i think they will go back to basics with him

Finally can't wait!!!

How is he 71?

I so understand the disloyalty feeling. It is fun to watch this but so scary to make this leap. Wishing you the best. I have never very watched this show until this. I barely know how to spell pickle ball so I am out and he likes Helen Mirren, so I was never a contendant. Nor do I want to be but this is cool!

He seems like a really good guy I hope the show doesn't turn it againest him and he stays true to himself.

I am 54 .Want to meet you Gerry.❤️❤️❤️❤️

I wish I could have been one of the women!

I do not agree with you! Go back and read what Gerry is lacking and wanting. A woman of 40 is not going to understand the kind of love Gerry is seeking. Especially when a man has lost a wonderful wife of 43 yrs. to a horrible illness! I so wish I was one of the candidates. Problem is - Gerry is not my faith. Most likely! Can't wait to watch this excitement Thursday night on TV! 🙂

@@janlevine2707 Yes that was a cruel thing to say. Those old women are just there on the show for a little bit of fame and attention they think they’re entitled to.
