— -- Newly announced "Bachelor" Nick Viall said he realizes being chosen for the hit ABC show is a “huge responsibility" but he had some reservations when the network first approached him for the gig.

“At first I was like, ‘Really? C’mon,’” Viall, 35, explained on “Good Morning America” today. “They asked me and I was very nervous. It took me a couple days. I told them I had to think about it.”

“It’s a huge responsibility but it’s obviously an amazing opportunity so ultimately I accepted,” he added.

He’s excited and anxious ahead of his upcoming season because “there’s a lot of expectations that come with it and there’s also no guarantees,” he said. “You just never know if you’re going to connect with [the women]. Maybe you really like someone who doesn’t really like you back. You just never know.”

Get to know the newest "Bachelor" a bit better as he reveals his answers to these intimate questions in a fun game appropriately called, “In the Nick of Time.”

What song do you sing in the shower?

"None. I don’t think I’ve ever done that."

Do you have a secret talent?

"I don’t drink a lot of beer, but I can slam a beer really fast."

What’s your drink of choice?

"Whiskey on the rocks."

If you weren’t the "Bachelor," who would you want to be the "Bachelor"?

"That’s a tough question. Wells [Adams] would be great."

What food staple is always in your fridge?

"Cholula sauce."

What TV show is waiting for you on your DVR at home?

"I just watched 'Stranger Things' so my cue is empty. That was great."
