"The Bachelor" on ABC (4 Viewers)

[General Malaise]

I loved how the Bachelor asked the host last night if he could eliminate a rose, as if he's the one in charge of such decisions. So fake.

IT'S REAL TO ME, DAMN IT!

 

[General Malaise]

From jeter's spoiler link....

This isn't a spoiler per se...as it discusses something that already happened, but it explains the background, which may or may not be discussed at the After the Rose episode, so I put it in as a spoiler...

Rozlyn Papa, a 28-year-old single mom, received a rose on The Bachelor season premiere. She will soon be getting the heave-ho, though, and here's why....

mytagid = Math.floor( Math.random() * 100 );document.write("She has a seven-year-old son. Rozlyn was told when she came on the show she’d be able to talk to her son every day, but this turned out not to be true.

Rozlyn was instructed not to tell Jake about her son, but some girls were told about it by producers, which Rozlyn flipped out about after she found out.

After a meltdown that won’t be shown because she she bashes the show, producers realized they needed to get rid of her somehow. Enter crew member!

One of the producers in the house apparently took a strong interest in Rozlyn Papa, which others noticed. Confronted, he admitted he had feelings for Rozlyn.

This was considered "inappropriate behavior" and it got Rozlyn booted off the show, despite zero admission of her reciprocated feelings, any sex or even kissing.

Just his feelings for her. That's it. The rest, including all the allegations of a "sexual affair," can be chalked up to sketchy editing. Pretty shady stuff if that's true.

If true, then....

FWIW, I love all my Bachelor watching brothers coming out of the closet with me in this thread.

I missed last night's episode because I had to go the Blazers game. Where can I get a recap?

Oh, ETA:

dude, seriouslyETA: Basically Jake went beserk with dumping chicks and was overcome with emotion. He got rid of the potential cougars as he had a double-date with both of them and chose to burn that rose. Also during the rose ceremony he opted to not give out the last rose and dump some brunette I'm not familiar with and the smoking hot porn-star looking one because he is an idiot and she was all over him. He kept the "super cute" chicks but some of them, especially Ali, are blowing it because they can't stand the fact he keeps picking Vienna and her bat#### crazy eyes.

lol....I think I hit rock bottom when I bet on the show 5 years ago. At least I'm not gambling on this anymore.No, my kids are in bed when this is on. I watch Amazing Race and American Idol with them sometimes, but I think the Bachelor would bore them.

Hm. I didn't think the "porn star" chick was that great.

Poor man's Brandy Roderick IMO. She was attractive but not one of my favorites. And their one on one was making me bored and uncomfortable

 

[Chigurh]

Hm. I didn't think the "porn star" chick was that great.

Yeah, she's the definition of a 7. Plus her last bit of alone time with Jake was embarrassing. She acted like she was completely hammered and just kept touching him while he was trying to get her to talk.Jake: So...?7: So...?(More stroking and babbling.)Jake: Well then...?7: Well then...?(Stroke. Stroke. Stroke.)

I thought the dark haired chick that got booted last night was smoking hot, when she walked down the stairs after getting let go I was thinking wow, what a stunning looking chick. She didn't talk much but seemed pretty sweet even with she was dumped unlike the blond chick who kept saying "really? He picked her over me?!?!" Ah, you both have fake blond hair and you have more miles on you and never offered anything extra so why not?

I called her Hot Elaine Benes (Seinfeld)

Which one is the 'porn star' chick? BTW, I know Gia is the clear favorite with this group, but I'm going on record as a major Corrie fan. Flawless skin, great smile, killer body. I would eat one of my children for a chance to smell her farts.

Gia looks kind of like a porn star herself. Let me find a pic of this broad.

The very same. Bad Northeastern accent, too.

The talent this season has been top notch. That nanny chick was top notch. Ashleigh was tough to see go. She was like Marissa Miller with a couple of sandwiches in her. Ali, teach her to #### and she'd be fantastic.

She looked classy and hot and cute. Tough triple combo to find. She shouldn't have talked about the other chick though.

Thank you. Looks like she had something oddly done on her mouth and the way she speaks is strange.

So does the only time the Bach gets to pork any of the chicks towards the end when they have spend the night dates?

So the lady with the kid who was looking at Jake like 'Instadad' got the boot? I saw that one coming. I hope going forward they will STOP bringing the kids into this show. I think it's uncalled for and a little mean. Get the kid all excited about a new man mommy loves, let mommy get all excited with the idea that maybe she has finally found the one to be a father to her son and then...yank the rug out from under them.

Pretty awful. IMO.

And yes, I know...the woman didn't have a gun to her head to sign up for this.

 

[koby925]

I would have made sure this girl stayed at least through the first cut and dumped the crazy broad or Vienna sausage. She looked pretty good, seemed nice an is a fit model.

 

[Nigel Tufnel]

I wonder if the Bachelor gets any perks for leaving the "crazy one" around longer. They're so good for TV, you'd think they'd give him some sort of incentive to keep them around.

To me it seemed like a stand up thing to do to drop her. He could've kept her around, had relations with her and probably been exposed to the kid (and vice versa) at least one more time. He didn't see her being the one (I think he's pretty set on Ali or Tenley) so he let her go.

My wife says with that mouth, Gia looks like a porned up version of the lead actress from Grey's Anatomy.

I suppose you are right. I just wish going forward they'd leave the kids off the show altogether.

To be honest if any woman right off the bat brought her kid to meet me, it's over. You don't raise your kid as a single parent to have them see their parent have a revolving door.

Ashleigh.

Porn star chick and the one I'd most like to

 

[Zow]

Ali would be my favorite if not for her obsession with Vienna "Sausage."

Ali is cute as hell as looks like someone you want to date long-term. But her obsession with Vienna is freaking dumb. If you like the dude, consider her less competition. He's spent what like 5 total hours alone with Vienna? Although I see crazy in her eyes a crazy chick can seem nice and sane for way more than 5 hours.

Her catiness with Vienna makes me think that she might be a rumor-spreading drama queen with insecurity issues and a mean streak. Not exactly wife material. She has great eyes, though.

I think on radar a past bachelor choose someone because the producers told him, I think she was a soap actress but not sure.

 

[Das Boot]

Before the season began, I found a supposed spoiler on some website. I did not know if this was a trusted site or not, but many of the predictions have proven to be correct. It nailed the fact that Ella would get a 1 on 1 date and stay, that both girls in the 2 on 1 would go.

It also spoiled the final 4 and the winner:

mytagid = Math.floor( Math.random() * 100 );document.write("

Final 4: Ali, Gia, Vienna, Tenley

Winner: Vienna*** SPOILER ALERT! Click this link to display the potential spoiler text in this box. ***");document.close();

I wonder if the Bachelor gets any perks for leaving the "crazy one" around longer. They're so good for TV, you'd think they'd give him some sort of incentive to keep them around.

My theory is that each week the Bachelor has to choose X + 1 when X are going home.The producers then get to pull one out and keep her around another week.It explains why some of the obvious high maintenance but high ratings producing ones get to stick around, e.g. Vienna.
