Almost Paradise, we’re knockin’ on heaven’s door. Almost Paradise! How could we ask for more?

That’s right, Bachelor Nation. We’re heading back to the beach for Bachelor in Paradise Season 9. The fun starts on Thursday, September 28 from 9:01-11:00 p.m. ET (right after The Golden Bachelor). And we got a first look at the dramatic season during The Bachelorette Season 20 finale on Monday, August 21.

“Paradise is back and it’s gonna hit harder than ever,” host Jesse Palmer said.

The nearly three-minute preview, located at the top of this page, is full of kissing, cursing, body shots, screaming, fireworks, tears, and summer love.

“This is crazy. Paradise is crazy. There’s so much sh*t going on,” The Bachelorette‘s Brayden Bowers (with a fresh pair of earrings on) says. So you know it must be true!

We catch glimpses of FOUR former Bachelorette leads — Charity Lawson, Hannah Brown, Rachel Recchia, and Katie Thurston — crashing the beach. We see familiar faces like Charity’s ex Aaron Bryant, Zach Shallcross’ ex Greer Blitzer, and Katie Thurston’s ex Blake Moynes. (Awkward!) And there’s talk of toe sucking, a Paradise wedding, and even a new “Paradise Truth Box” that will predictably”destroy some couples.”

In an unpredictably gross twist, a medic is sent to the beach for “a serious medical emergency.” What is it? Someone’s on Day Nine of no pooping, so a medic explains they’ll have to “deliver a poop baby” if some movement doesn’t happen soon.

You won’t want to miss a moment of this hot mess. So mark your calendars for September 28 and stay tuned for more cast info.
