When dating from home is your only option your creative juices seem to flow a bit more.
Two San Francisco natives launched an online Instagram dating series called “Quarantined Bachelor,” inspired by the popular television show “The Bachelor.”
The masterminds behind the show, Tyler Cohen and Jimmy Parenteau, reported by TMZ, wanted to start a live dating show. The original idea for the show changed slightly and was made into a virtual dating series instead.

Get this, no roses to give here. Instead, contestants are given a roll of toilet paper. The series are over a week and a half. It first includes a group meet-and-greet and one-on-one dated, virtually of course. Each of these segments are edited down to a couple of minutes.
A bachelor is chosen and introduced to a bunch of potential women via Zoom chat. After that, they go on individual dates virtually with the bachelor until it is down to a final three elimination.
