Some of those guys, like Adam and Matt, were a bit anonymous, and strange choices for the next Bachelor, but Dean was one of the final four and seemed genuinely heartbroken by his elimination.

Dean is young compared to a lot of previous Bachelors, but that means he doesn't have a dating history long enough to be in a rut or have an extremely limited "type."

Of course, you can't look into somoene's heart to find out what prejudices they hold while casting them to be on TV, but you can look at their Twitter account to make sure they're not homophobic or racist.

But finding a group of women who are as different from one another as they are from the generic stereotype levied at Bachelor competitors is key in making future seasons as groundbreaking as this one.

Not only will it make for a better, more entertaining season where a larger portion of the audience feels represented, it will also pay forward with a casting pool that's increasingly diverse.
