The best “Bachelor in Paradise” captions you didn't see

One of the best things about 'Paradise' this season were the cheeky captions producers used to troll the contestants. EW has a look at the best on-screen chyrons fans didn't see.

Never mind the romance, drama, love triangles, and ridiculous dates — the most entertaining thing about Bachelor in Paradise this season were the captions. Whether trolling Aven for busting a move (badly) in episode 8 ("Elaine Benes School of Dance") or poking fun at Kat for yelling in her confessionals ("Max Volume"), the folks dreaming up these chyrons were truly doing stellar work.

Since producers weren't able to use all of the cheeky captions they brainstormed, we asked the Bachelor in Paradise team to share some of the gems viewers didn't see. Good comedy should never go to waste.

Summary of his Paradise "journey": Aven and Kylee began dating in episode 2 and stayed together the rest of the season. They chose not to get engaged in the finale but left the beach together.
