ABC's drama The Bachelor is looking for a few good-looking men. Well, one. They need a new bachelor to pretend he's looking for love and lifetime companionship. Might that be you? "We are very open to all ethnicities," producer Holly Golden explained to SFist. You should also be "handsome and eligible." To the press release!
Casting Call: 'The Bachelor' Needs Titular Stud
Big Brother Casting Call In San Francisco, 4/7
Have you always wanted to live your life in front of TV cameras, with a sundry of people ranging from skinny and attractive to skinny and young? Now's your chance: On April 7th, CBS' Big Brother will be interviewing potential hamsters to live in the Big Brother house this summer. If you make it through to the show, lightening-brief fame is yours; if you outlast your fellow housemates, a cool $500,000 is also yours.
Open Casting Call: Hep B 2012 Calendar
Well, this looks like fun. The folks at Asian Week are looking for "enthusiastic and passionate" Asian American models for the 2012 Hepatitis B Awareness calendar. Used to encourage the public to "be a hero and see a doctor who tests for hepatitis b," prospective models will need to do the following: 1) send in 3-5 photos (include a head shot and full body shot), 2) Write a brief statement about how you are a "Hep B Hero" or would encourage others to be "Hep B heroes," and 3) mention your age, ethnicity, and whether you are a Hep B carrier or know someone who has Hep B.
Big Brother 13 Open Casting Call In San Francisco
While we loathe most competitive TV shows, Top Chef and the CBS's epic Big Brother are the notable exceptions. Compared to Bravo's Emmy Award winner about scallop searing, molecular gastronomy and fauxhawks, Big Brother is particularly ghastly. Thirteen strangers are selected to live inside a compound during the summer months somewhere in the Valley, and the one left standing wins $500,000. (The disgusting Dick Donato, if you recall, somehow managed to win season 8, even after indirectly threatening a female housemate with rape. His daughter, Daniele.) The entire experiment is broadcast on TV and live on the web, warts and all. Furthermore, you should tryout for it this coming Saturday at Sugar Cafe!

See further details below, but know that you'll need to be available for shooting between February 9 and February 19, which is when the crew will be here on location.

Warhols Needed by the de Young Museum
Because there's no artist San Francisco museums love to recycle more than Warhol, the de Young Museum is looking for a few good Andys. Dede Wilsey's rusty nail will hold a Warhol Live casting call. SFCitizen has the details:
Calling All Type-As: Your San Francsico Casting Calls Await
Gus Van Sant isn't the only one who might make you a shiny, coke-addled star here in San Francisco. Take, for example, MTV and NBC who want to use you for their up-and-coming reality programming.
Beating a Dead Pony: Open Casting Call for Milk
Yeah, we plan on running this bit into the ground. And then some. Well, well, well. Well. Huh. It looks like Mr. Van Sant is having yet another open casting call for his Harvey Milk biopic, Milk. Seeing as how are the Gena Rowlands of bit-part/background acting, we're going to attend the casting call. Again. Clearly, our picture taken at the last audition was either destroyed by a envious auditioners, or it was lost...
SFist Watches: Are You a Survivor (What?)
