Published on December 01, 2025 EDT April, Susan, Kathy, and Nancy are gifting fans a new holiday-themed teaser called "'Twas the Month Before 'The Bachelor'"

If you're askin' for a first look at Joey's season of The Bachelor, then Golden Bachelor fan favorites April, Susan, Kathy, and Nancy — the group of women who dubbed themselves ASK'N — have some news to tell.

EW has an exclusive look at the new preview of The Bachelor, featuring the sassy ladies of ASK'N reading a holiday-themed poem, "'Twas the Month Before The Bachelor."

Though some of the rhymes aren't quite sound — do "mansion" and "passion" really rhyme? — the verses serve as a vehicle for new footage of Joey's "journey" to find "love." In addition to a few limo arrivals, the preview also confirms that yes, there will be a lot of tennis tomfoolery on night one. (Our Bachelor, as you may or may not already know, is a Hawaii-based tennis pro.)

Other tidbits include this glimpse of a wedding-themed group date with Rachel, Jess, and Kelsey T:

Unclear what's going on here — maybe a paintball group date?

And finally, here's our Bachelor sharing smooches in some beautiful foreign locale. (I think the woman on the left is Daisy? Unclear about the brunette — so many of these women look the same!)

Watch the full clip above, rose lovers, and I hope to see you back here for my Bachelor recaps in 2024.

The Bachelor premieres Monday, Jan. 22 at 8 p.m. on ABC.
