The Bachelor Returns For Season 13 This January

What do you do when you propose marriage to a woman on national television and she turns you down? If you’re Jason Mesnick, you go back on national television and try again. Honestly, aren’t there other ways for good-looking people to get a date without resorting to reality TV dating anymore?

This January, The Bachelor returns for its thirteenth season to follow Mesnick as he attempts to pick the perfect woman for him from a group of 25 bachelorettes. Hopefully Mesnick's not superstitious because where I come from, 13's not a lucky number. Can true love be found on a reality TV show? Apparently there are plenty of people out there who think so because the show is still going strong. Below are a couple of video clips from the new season:

The Bachelor’s 13th season premieres Monday, January 5, 2009, 8:00-10:00 p.m., ET.
