Burning Love 1: Episode 1
If you haven’t seen this work of sheer genius by Ben Stiller you MUST watch it now! This web spoof of The Bachelor has had us in an uncontrollable giggle fit since it premiered! Ben Stiller somehow captures the essence of everything we love about the show, particularly the ridiculousness.
The web series will make its debut on E! on Monday, Feb. 25 at 10 p.m. ET!
Burning Love is a scripted comedy that follows fireman Mark Orlando (Ken Marino) as he searches for his life-partner on realty Television.

Comedian Michael Ian Black nails the Chris Harrison hand gestures as he prepares Mark for the incoming limo of ladies. (BTW if you haven’t seen our breakdown of Chris Harrison hand gestures and situation poses you must!)
So the limos arrive in typical dramatic fashion. Each limo shot is juxtaposed with the ridiculous Bachelor soundtrack letting us know that the lady emerging from the limo must be an absolutely amazing catch.
The drama as the limo door opens has viewers glued to their seats in anticipation of each amazing lady as the landing gears land and each girl exits the limo — which is why this scene is so amazing.
careers as “Dental Hygienists,” which, if you have watched the last 16 seasons of The Bachelor, you are aware of the inordinate number of dental careers held by these amazing ladies. Even the 90-year-old grandma contestant is a retired “dental hygienist.”
Our personal favorite was Haley, the girl with no pants or panties who is a “Salon Hair Washer” steps out of the limo ready to get the party started telling Mark: “I like to lay all my cards out on the table.” Amazing!
