I feel like my life has ended. For some reason I went upstairs last night and my mom was watching The Bachelorette. Oh, why oh why did I sit down? Probably because the trek up the stairs left me winded. I know the gist of the whole season from reading about it, but it is so much worse to actually see it in person. I did not expect boxing so that was interesting, but the problem with this show is there are so many leaks that everything comes out weeks and weeks before it airs so even though I have not watched the show until now, I know exactly what is coming. Yes, Ashley, we get it. You want to have closure with Bentley. Well, the producers so so they are going to fly him to Thailand but need Ashley to tease it out. Holy f**k, just bring the guy over. We already know you did, and the whole world knows you did so just bring him out, pretend you like him and then send him packing.
The show is so manipulative in its editing. It is like every cliche must be used in an episode. Oh, and what kind of guy would throw another guy under the bus about the dating he would do when he gets home? Guy code dude. Guy code. Plus, who cares about future dating the person might do. It isn't like the guy is heading off to brothels in Thailand when the cameras were not rolling. Were there some guys who did? Yep. You read it here first.
I watched about eight minutes of this shit a month or so ago, and ended up switching to a documentary about the history of the Coke bottle on PBS. True story.
ReplyDeletei've never watched this show, and i do wish you'd be more selective...but i suppose it could be worse...you could be watching that vile paris hilton racist pig.
ReplyDeleteThe poor girl is so lacking in self-esteem. She needs some Oprah in her life. LOVE YOURSELF, ASHLEY!
ReplyDeleteI think there are more problems with this show than just the leaks, Enty.
ReplyDeleteConsider yourself shot!
ReplyDeleteBleach you eyes, Enty. Bleach your eyes.
ReplyDeleteI love awful t.v, but the bachelor/ette shows are too much.
ReplyDeleteI'm so glad that I can say that I have never watched a single minute of any of the Bacholor/Bachlorette shows. Which says a lot because I love trashy TV. But even I have my standards. = )
ReplyDeleteI actually like watching The Bachelorette. She's an idiot of epic proportions, chasing after a gaggle of preening imbeciles. I haven't seen it in a couple of weeks. I can't wait to get back to it. It's no Temptation Island, but it's still damn fine entertainment. Love it.
ReplyDeleteYou've got to wonder about her dental patients--how does she even face them after being such a sniveler on national TV?
ReplyDelete@Ida- HAHAHAHAHAHA
ReplyDeleteI watched it ONCE too...and I was lucky? enough to catch the dude who wore the mask for the first several episodes so that she would grow to understand his soul and not just be mesmorized? with this outward appearance. hehehehe, fucking awesome lame shit.
And I'm sorry, a bunch of overly tanned men with gelled hair and overinflated opinions on they're worth all gaggling together to half-heartedly vie for a thin wannabe celeb who probably wants to be on the cover of US Weekly more than she wants to be in love....ewwww. Id rather watch old episodes of Jon and Kate plus 8. (and thats really saying something)
Poor Ash isn't making for a very interesting Bachelorette. She talks way too much and the whole Bentley drama is beyond contrived. I've been switching over to Master Chef. Gordon Ramsey might be an ass, but the two other judges are cool. Try that show Enty, some of the food looks yummy.
ReplyDeleteReality Steve has always said the Bachelorette/or contestants can't go anywhere without a handler so I don't know about the Thailand brothel thing Enty.
Unless...you don't think that the handler went along for the ride? So to speak.
Califblondy, I hope you're right. I'm so sick of middle class white Americans fueling the global sex slave industry and laughing about it like it's some guy joke...
ReplyDeleteI watch b/c I've been following a really funny re-cap blog for years. It's total crap, totally scripted and just lame, but yet I watch. It's not like it's going anywhere. They're on, what like the 15th season?
ReplyDeleteI think Ashley is sweet but BORING.
I love how Chris Harrison seems so confused by the Bentley situation. I am yelling at my TV: "Bitch, you know you are in on this. Just show her the footage and stop pretending to be sympathetic."
I've never watched Bachelor Pad but I'm a teensy bit interested to see Jake/Vienna together....
