Another Season of The Bachelorette Is In The Books - The Split Countdown Begins Now - **NO Spoilers In Post**
I can write about the last episode of The Bachelorette without even giving any spoilers because I barely even remember the name of the guy who won. Did he really win? He got to propose to Desiree Hartsock even though she says she had her heartbroken in the last episode. Apparently she got over it real fast and said the right things and that she is in love and needed to have her heart crushed into tiny little pieces before she realized she would have been making a mistake with that guy who dumped her and made her cry every second and what she really needed was this guy in her life who proposed. Yeah, that should work out fine. At this point, the show is not really much better than an arranged marriage. If you can fall in love that is great, but otherwise, find someone who looks good in photos with you, make sure the runner-up is good looking enough to be The Bachelor (although this time went to Juan Pablo) and when you do split with the guy, you end up on Dancing With The Stars as a nice $200K consolation prize. You know who gets screwed the most is the winner of the show. he gets to ask a question he knows will never happen. He does not get The Bachelor because he is "engaged" and he does not get Dancing With The Stars. He does not even have Bachelor Pad to look forward to any longer.
They interviewed Sean and his "fiancé" (Michele? They all run together in my mind). She looked so unhappy. She would put the smile on when she was talking, but when he spoke she looked miserable. Not at all like you would if you were talking about your happy relationship.
ReplyDeleteThe sexism of it annoys me...if she's doing the choosing, why doesn't SHE propose to him? I know plenty of couples where the woman proposed. And that would make it a lot interesting too.
ReplyDeleteMmmm Juan Pablo
ReplyDeleteIt really surprises me that people still watch this show. We all know how it's going to end. It's always the same!!
ReplyDeleteWell I watch it for fun. She totally still loves Brooks. She looked miserable when he came out during After the Final Rose. Poor thing, she seems sweet enough.
ReplyDeleteDoes anybody actually watch this show?
