More on The Bachelor: Episode 7

February 17, 2009 by Amy 5 Comments

OK, after reading Chris’ blog this morning, I might be more confused than ever. The dark room we saw was After the Final Rose. That’s the part where the bachelor and the girl he picked finally get to see each other as well as the #2 girl comes back.

So is there a wedding? Not sure if emotionally difficult fits there. Has Jillian fallen into depression like her mother? Is someone pregnant? Do they break up? I’m guessing no because Jason has said in interviews he’s definitely engaged. Ahhh..this is killing me!

*Update*

Oh, I like this theory in as much as it makes sense and Deanna doesn’t want him back:

Just read a great prediction on ihategreenbeans.com. One of the bloggers there thinks that Deanna comes back to tell Jason that he let the wrong woman go (jillian), just like she let the wrong man go.

The Bachelor: Episode 6

February 10, 2009 by Amy 5 Comments

I love hometown dates on The Bachelor. But I think last night included some highlights of the entire series.

Jillian – Darnit, I didn’t want to like Jillian. I don’t know why. Maybe because I like Melissa so much but as we all know, hometown visits changes things. I really, really liked Jillian’s family. Her dad was hilarious, her mother down-to-earth sweet, her sister just as gorgeous and a her grandmother side-splitting funny. It really seemed like a great visit. So that made me like Jillian a lot. What I’m not sure of is if I can see Jason and Jillian getting married. I saw that they had a good time and connected deeper than they have but I just don’t see that excitement out of Jason.

Molly – The hats freaked me out. The sketching freaked me out. I REALLY wanted to like Molly’s family but I got a little freaked.out. And knowing you get the family with the girl, I’m not sure Jason felt entirely comfortable with them. I could be REALLY wrong though. We never see the whole picture. Chris Harrison blogged this:

There are a few entertaining things you didn’t get a chance to see on this date. Jason played beer pong with Molly’s family for a couple hours. Also not shown (but you will see it on the Women Tell All special) was Jason losing a bet on the golf course to Molly and having to take his pants off and give them to her. He walked off the course in his boxers!

But from the commentary, I don’t think Jason is feeling it with Molly yet. I think they’re still way back on 2nd or 3rd date status and haven’t really connected like he wants. And from the looks of the previews, Jason’s going to address why she hasn’t let her walls down yet.

Naomi That was THE MOST WEIRDEST UNCOMFORATBLEST AWKWARDESS hometown EVER. The hula hoops, the dove, reincarnation, psychics, I love Jesus. And darnit, I love Jesus too and it was all just weird! Thanks for representin’, Hector! What I can’t believe is that it took so much effort on Jason’s part to send Naomi home…incredibly difficult??? Was he just trying to be nice. He only had to pick ONE to send home. It worries me that it was such a tough decision.

Melissa I’ve been rooting for Melissa the whole time but while this went well, Jason was satisified. I honestly believe she was the front runner (did you see that greeting??) and he needed to meet her family to propose. And while there are no hula hoops and dead doves, something is going on there. And it might not be good. But Chris says:

This is not over yet and they will continue to talk about this and deal with it next week on the exotic dates.

Here’s the thing. They’ve brought families back on during this stage. They can do it again.

And finally, I think DeAnna comes back to wreak havoc on the exotic dates. Which wouldn’t that be the most DRAMATIC THING EVER….Melissa’s parents come on and you KNOW it’s Melissa UNTIL DeAnna shows up and sends Jason in a tailspin! LOL I love this show.

Renee from The Bachelor

I’m really not trying to pick on Renee she’s a beautiful woman that seemed perfectly nice. But the whole time I was watching The Bachelor this week I kept thinking she looked super skinny and her hair/head wasn’t in proportion to her tiny little 80 pound body. I wish I could find some screencaps of the show because I think she lost even more weight since this photo. Anyway, I kept thinking she reminded me of someone…

And then Heather and I realized who…one of my children’s Polly Pocket toys.

No?

Random TV notes from last night

April 22, 2008 by Amy Leave a Comment

Just a few on DWTS, The Hills, One Tree Hill and the Bachelor…

What is with Shannon and Derek on DWTS…dating??? Last time we saw something like that beach scene was with Mario and we know how that turned out.
Lauren needs to get over this whole Heidi thing. I mean it’s one thing to be mad at someone but it’s another to hold a grudge against her for years and act like a 15 year old. It’s really getting annoying.
Spencer is still a jerk.
Justin Bobby is on the right track. Wow, like a different person. His showering comment was really funny.
OTH, well, you can read about it over here. It was a so-so episode.
The fake parents thing was very awkward to watch but really funny. She really took a risk doing that. I thought he may think she was wacko but he seemed to like it as Amanda stayed another week. I’m thinking the frontrunner is Shayne but I’m really surprised the promos show him proposing to someone. I don’t see him that close to any of them.

The Bachelor

If you’ve been reading for awhile, you may remember how much I love The Bachelor. Last season was quite frustrating when Brad did not give DeAnna a chance. Turns out she’s the next Bachelorette for the summer so of course I have to watch that. And now this. There’s no way I can NOT watch The Bachelor this March with Matt Grant because the man has a British accent. I will watch just to hear him talk. Seriously.
