"Barbara Walters has shared her opinion on ABC&amp;#039;s reality show The Bachelor. Walters said on The View that she watched the last episode of The Bachelor, where Ben Flajnik proposed to model Courtney Robertson, because she knew they were going to discuss it on the talk show.   However, Walters blasted the reality series, saying: &amp;quot;I lost an hour of the rest of my life watching the last hour of The Bachelor. &amp;quot;Say whatever you want, and then I will drone on because I am deeply offended.&amp;quot; Walters explained to her View co-hosts Joy Behar, Elisabeth Hasselbeck and Sherri Shepherd: &amp;quot;First of all, The Bachelor has been on for 10 years. Not a single Bachelor has married the woman he chose in the finale.
