The Bachelor Host Chris Harrison: Jason's On My Short List

Just came from the ABC party at the Beverly Hilton, where I made a beeline for The Bachelor host Chris Harrison. Will Jason Mesnick be the next Bachelor? America needs to know!

"We would be bona fide idiots not to consider him for the show," Chris told me. "He's on my short list." He added that if it happens, "[Jason's son] Ty would have to take center stage" and hinted that that could mean filming in Jason's hometown of Seattle. Chris and his wife even offered to baby-sit: "We have two kids, Ty would fit right in."

Chris said that Bachelor finalist Jeremy Anderson is also in the running. Earlier, ABC Entertainment President Steve McPherson told critics that The Bachelor is not on the network's fall schedule because they're still searching for the right guy.

Meantime, Chris had just gotten off the phone with Bachelor couple Jesse and DeAnna before arriving at the party. "They're in Ohio with Jesse's family," he said.
