Warner Bros. Sues Fox Over 'The Vow' Promos, Citing 'Bachelor' Trademark Infringement

Warner Bros. TV issued a cease-and-desist letter to Fox News Media and Lionsgate over promotional materials for the upcoming dating series 'The Vow.' The letter alleges that the show's teaser, which features falling rose petals and a man in a suit holding a rose, directly copies the intellectual property of the 'Bachelor' franchise. Fox News Media rejected the claims, calling them 'malicious and vindictive,' and argued that falling roses are a generic romance trope. The dispute centers on the return of former 'Bachelor' host Chris Harrison to the dating show format after a five-year absence.
