Seniors, are you looking for your shot at love?

Well, you’re in luck as the producers of The Bachelor are casting for a new dating show for men and women ages 65 and older.

During a commercial break in this week’s episode of The Bachelor, a casting card read, “NOW CASTING SENIORS LOOKING FOR LOVE,” directing fans to ABC’s casting page.

ABC’s head of alternative programming, Rob Mills, then tweeted, “#Bachelornation, give us your Grumpiest Old Men, give us your Goldenest Girls. #TheBachelor.”

ABC’s casting site says, “Now casting Seniors Looking for Love! Are you entering your golden years and looking for romance? The Producers of The Bachelor are looking for active and outgoing single men and women IN THEIR GOLDEN YEARS for a new exciting dating show!”

No further information has been released about the show, and it’s yet to be ordered.

The Bachelor franchise just ordered a new show, The Bachelor: Listen to Your Heart, which will join The Bachelor, The Bachelorette, and Bachelor in Paradise.
