WARNING: SPOILERS AHEAD!

It was the night that Bachelor Nation has been waiting months for, the premier of Nick Viall’s season, which means we now have a reason to drink on Mondays! Season 21, if you can believe that or not. If you’re not familiar with Nick, they you must be new to Bachelor Nation, so welcome…prepare for our roller coaster of emotions every Monday night and lots of wine drinking!

The 36 year-old has been a contestant on two season of The Bachelorette, Andi’s season and Kaitlyn’s season…he was labelled “the villain” in both seasons and publicly announced that he had slept with both girls, something you should never announce while on the show. This past summer he made his first appearance on Bachelor in Paradise, where he somehow came off as “The Nice Guy”. He was unsuccessful with love all three times, so he’s back as The Bachelor for one last shot at reality show love….fourth times a charm, right?

On last night’s season premier Nick met 30 insanely beautiful women and as well all know, the intros are some of the most hilarious moments of the season. Just imagine 30 girls fighting for one guy, obviously everyone wants to stand out. The most memorable intro of the night has to go to 23 year old “aspiring dolphin trainer”, Alexis.

Get a good look at her in her picture provided for her bio because you couldn’t actually tell what she looked like at all on last night’s episode…because she was dressed up as a shark…or maybe it was a dolphin? No it was definitely a shark.

We also met this season’s ‘villain'(?), 24 year-old business owner, Corrine.

She seems like quite the handful, which may be why she still has a nanny? Yes, she’s 24 and has a nanny.

We also met Liz, but last night wasn’t Nick and Liz’s first introduction…they already met at former Bachelor in Paradise contestants Jade and Tanner’s wedding…and apparently they got “wild” that night. The question now is, when will the other girl’s find out? This might be the greatest plot twist ever written in Bachelor history.

After an eventful first night at the mansion, Nick sadly had to send 8 girls packing:

Angela
Bianca
Ida Maria
Lauren
Michelle
Susannah
Jasmine B.
Olivia

Favourite tweet of the night:

22 girls remain and if host Chris Harrison is a man of his word, then this season is the most controversial yet! Until next week, stock that wine, you’re gonna need it!
