She is beautiful inside and out. Great first episode! She showed so much class, elegance and kindness! Hope she finds true love again!❤

[@et9093]

Just watched the first episode it is super cute. I’m excited for this season.

[@Kayumari]

Joan you are rockin it

[@deborahgarrison4349]

Photos where her hair is off face, so much better. Pascal, she needs you!!

[@oldperson2112]

Joan seems sweet, but I would love to see a care free, low maintenance woman be featured. Like me!

[@traceytrotter9934]

And natural maybe!!

[@rayc9899]

Yes, to much plastic surgery doesn't look natural, and and she should put at least 10 -15 pounds on her and have some curbs....she represent perhaps 5% of our generation and I'm generous, but each his own.

[@Babyhaswon]

Agreed!!

[@maryholloway5487]

She got more fillers in her face!

[@deborahgarrison4349]

I am shocked that 61 is “golden.” (I have children that age.)

[@material___]

I’m sure she’s a nice person, but this isn’t relatable.

[@Bellagiobic]

By god how many plastic surgeries can one person get

[@italishgirl5601]

Waaaay too much

[@sherrymeans1106]

Thinking the same! All these women look the same

[@traceytrotter9934]

We need to stop catering to society and men. Just gross! I bet she was beautiful prior. :(

[@somcana]

Old young lady.

[@turkiyedekisiyasipartiler]

61? İncredible.

[@maryholloway5487]

Face lift, Botox and Fillers! Not incredible!

[@turkiyedekisiyasipartiler]

@@maryholloway5487 Ok.

[@cja12345]

She doesn’t look real 😂

[@violaking629]

Love you Joan...love your interview with Rachel Smith

[@embracedchimera5886]

I love the host's blouse

[@helenpoynter1377]

Unfortunately, Bad choices dominate outcomes for many Seniors. Singleness can be positive, a blessing verses thinking some man with unmet character and a victim of lifes challenges si going to complete a woman .

[@thesnoopydance645]

Or a good man even. How about kudos to all the ladies that ARE NOT seeking out an attachment to a man. Make this a completely acceptable option, too.

[@Merbella]

I really am tired of the same OC look of long wavy blond extensions and heavy plastic surgery. Let's update the look PLEASE!

[@Babyhaswon]

Is that what is going on with her mouth???

[@maryholloway5487]

I agree!! So phoney! She acts so ‘better than’ … privileged!

[@deborahgarrison4349]

Looks like upper lip “frozen” with Botox.

[@Babyhaswon]

What happened to her mouth? Surgery?

[@patrice1380]

A little slow 🐌

[@ChristineDudde]

Is she dating gery

[@embracedchimera5886]

well i already saw the kissing in previews lol and thats ok! its ok to kiss, I think the kiddos(adults) can get past that. but im glad she isnt doing intimate fantasy suite

[@helenpoynter1377]

Respectfully Joan, you are full of grief. What you had is gone...you must be emotionally whole to move on..Our culture is selling you an opportunity to lose more of yourself.. Dont beca fool! Gerry embarased Senior American..

[@rivierarocket]

The dumbing down of America continues. And we ask how we got here. Turn on the TV.

[@First1ToComment]

First

[@maryholloway5487]

Is she trying to be a Barbie clone?
