Darn Bachelor

Bachelor

I swore I'd never watch another one of these ding dang things!  After that whole Jason debacle, I was so hissed off that I swore I'd never again waste my time on this show!  I didn't watch Bachelorette last year and I didn't start Bachelor this year.  That is, until Bry moved in!  Gah!  I hope he doesn't lose his man card for this, but some chickadee got him hooked on the show and I started watching it with him.

Even though I've been watching, I still don't feel very invested in the “characters”. Maybe I'm protecting myself since Jason burned me so badly when Kind Humble Man turned into Flaky Man and traded in Melissa for Molly after the fact.  This season just feels a little shallow to me, which I guess would mean the other seasons have been full of deep meaningful content?  🙂

One interesting tidbit this season was the whole Rozlyn travesty of a mockery of a sham and her appearance on the “Women Tell All” episode this past Monday. Really? Does she honestly think we believe a teensy weensy word she has to say?  You get caught red-handed (or red-whatever) by several people, and still lie like a rug?  And then you attack Mr. NiceGuy Chris Harrison in the process?

Two thoughts about that.  #1, didn't Forrest Gump say stupid is as stupid does?  He would probably say the same thing about pretty.  It doesn't matter how gorgeous you are on the outside if the inside is contaminated by a lack of character with a big dose of mean and nasty.

#2, don't be hatin' on Chris Harrison, friend, just because you're caught in a corner.  That's just not right.  I happened to see him at a local Jason's Deli with his family a while back, and he seemed like a pretty lovely man to me.  PS, he's more handsome in person.

So, back to our story.  Will it Be Vienna, or Tenley, or neither?  All I'll say is that I heard from a little bird that it doesn't matter which one gets the final rose, cause Jake isn't with the “winner”.

Already.

Glad I'm not invested.

    I’ve said that before – many times – LilSis. And this time it was your son who dragged me back into it! 😀

    Oh, but really, it’s too much fun. As a very shy and way too old for it woman, I get a kick out of the artifice and the splendid locations

    Hi Kate! Thanks for coming by to visit us! I know, it’s definitely a guilty pleasure. I just get all wrapped up in the show and then get mad at myself when things don’t work out the way I see them in my head! Control freak much? Maybe! 🙂
