Bachelor Nation is going golden.

The popular ABC franchise “The Bachelor,” where singles look for love, is getting a spinoff, the network announced this week.

“The Golden Bachelor” will follow the 71-year-old father of two, Gerry Turner, as he looks for love. Producers are seeking women in their golden age (65+) to pair up with Gerry.

While this isn’t the reality show’s first spinoff, it’s the first to feature a decidedly different age group. There’s no wrong age to look for love! Just like there’s no wrong time to seek out a new gig.

Speaking of, we’re rich with new opportunities this week.
