12 Angry Men
SHALOM readers! As you know, I am currently on the second leg of my Israeli Invasion ’08 tour to the Holy Land. In preparation for my departure, I asked several friends if they would write the recap while I was gone.
And everyone said, “NO!”
Wondering how I was going to find time to upload the show on ABC.com, I decided to let one of my frequent commenters take a stab.
He’s always been hilarious and makes me laugh with anything and everything he posts.
With that, I give my keyboard to “SOME GUY” and hope that you enjoy the show and his recap.
All about the shame, not the fame,

Some Guy:
I have been asked to fill some very big shoes with this week’s recap. Lincee has been traveling, and she asked me if I would be interested in filling in. I was honored that she asked, and will do my best to carry the torch this week. She will be back in the saddle next week – no worries there.
My Simple Disclaimer
I love my wife very much, and I like spending time with her. Sometimes that means we watch TV together. I’ve been in and out on the Bachelor/Bachelorette series. The past few seasons I have been in. We discovered Lincee’s blog, and she is gold. I don’t know Lincee personally, nor do I know anyone on the TV show. I’m just Some Guy.
This week starts with the now stock recap reminding us how badly our hearts were broken last year. We all wish ABC would turn the page, but they won’t. Since they went there I will give my thoughts on the situation.
He wasn’t that into her. It happens. She came off as intense and a little high maintenance to me. He should have played along and been another one of those couples that just couldn’t keep it together. But he didn’t. C’est la vie.
Zero to Hero
Paul, Graham, and Jeremy get to come up to the Penthouse this week. They meet DDah at the pool. She’s in her bikini, and Jeremy is in a jacket. He’s from Texas, y’all. It’s hot here.
Chef breaks it down for us back at the clubhouse. Jeremy is going to be on DDah like white on rice, and Graham is hot. Nothing on Paulie. We also see Richard looking pretty stylish, IMHO. I think to myself that he may have been a starting quarterback and the president of his fraternity for all we know. He is a science teacher, but still looks like a solid dude.
Rooftop Romance
DDah shows up in a sparkly dress, and says that she’s looking for a spark. Richard says the view of LA from on top of some tall building is not as good as the view of DDah.
They talk about the most romantic date he’s ever been on. He got a picnic set backpack and went to Lake Ontario at sunset. Some Guy says “good call.” We also learn that shooting stars are just space junk.
Richard is worried about “just” being a teacher, and being able to provide for DDah. She is actually cool with it, and I start to think that maybe I was being too harsh on her all this time. Tricky Dick also reveals that he keeps relationships on the d/l from his family. Strange.
Inside now, and Science Teacher Richard gives a pop quiz:
Nerd: You have to take risks in relationships. True or False?
DDah: True. Blink. Blink.
Nerd: Awkward silence. Brushes hair out of the way that wasn’t in the way.
Some Guy: Dude!!!
ABC Intern: Drops the ball on the Disney cross-branding – “Kiss the Girl” should be playing.
Next they do some Cinderella carriage ride. I flash to that episode of Seinfeld where Kramer got too many cans of beans at the bulk food store and calamity ensued. Still no kissing from Richard. Peace, homey.
Group Date Two – Boot-Scooting Boogie
While all that mess was happening, we flash back to the men’s room. We see two things loud and clear: Graham is not afraid to show Chef how to really wear pink, and the clubhouse room looks like the remnants of a nuclear accident. What’s up with the questionably stained corrugated aluminum (also questionable) walls?
Brian (Daryl Johnston), Dojo, Jesse, Graham (Hugh Laurie), ChiCAHgo Fred (Jason Bateman), Chef, Twilly, Ron, Paulie, and Jeremy get the group date. That means Jason gets the 1×1 date. He can finally discuss Ty.
After they get gussied up in their cowboy duds we hear from Brian:
Brick House Brian: I want to rope a chicken and exchange it for a rose.
Some Guy: I don’t think that’s slang for anything.
The gates open, and we see a motley crew. Why does Paulie have my yard work hat? And does it have fringe on it?
DDah looks good with a cowboy hat and ponytails. Something is wrong with her hat, though. Either it’s on crooked, or it’s creased wrong. This becomes too distracting for me whenever we get a shot of DDah telling us something. I should disclose that I went to college in a place known as “cow town” so I do feel qualified to speak on these matters.
I’ve never really been a fan of line dancing. The Cotton-Eyed Joe is, of course, an exception to that. Are they doing the electric slide?
Next is the mechanical bull riding. Jesse is the only guy who dismounted the bull voluntarily. He’s also the first one to come to DDah’s rescue when she draws the guys offsides with her (really brilliant) ploy to feign injury. Jesse gets some 1×1 time with DDah, where he says he does not want someone identify herself as Jesse’s Girl. But I still really like that song.
There were three guys who did NOT go to her rescue: Soul Patch Ron, Paulie, and Chef. SP Ron then calls Jeremy out for being tactless. SP Ron also tells DDah that his beef with Jeremy is none of her business, and he gives her several glaring “back off, woman” smiles. He also rattles off this array of clichés:
- I (Ron) am a guy’s guy
- Iron sharpens iron
- You need someone as strong as you are to make you stronger
Twilly does a campfire chant that ends with a fizzle. My wife and I scratch our heads in bewilderment. Jesse is an instigator. Keep your eyes on this, people.
Chef gets all deep. I check out for a few minutes while I hear “Can You Feel The Love Tonight” in my head. What’s the deal with all the Disney tunes, and how does The Intern keep missing these? Chef gets rosed. Why are they drinking out of glasses at a campfire?
One-On-One Date – Jason
DDah pops in on the guys, and tells Jason they are waiting for their ride. She has a surprise for him. She hearts surprises. The ride arrives. Helicopters are cool. We did a helicopter tour of the active volcano in Hawaii. Once.
Jason: Your eyes sparkle when you smile.
Some Guy: Again with the sparkling. Oohhh – observatories are also cool.
DDah then tells us that the date has been perfect, and she can’t see anything wrong with Jason. Uh-oh. They have a genuinely good talk, though, and I can’t say anything snarky about it. They talk about Ty and DDah’s mother. He is the first guy to show any interest in her mom. How is that possible?!?
Jason gets rosed. They look at stars. He asks for permission to kiss. Ladies – what’s the ruling on this?
Field Trip
The whole gang piles into a limo with some kind of mirror roof. Huh. Dojo got a haircut. I guess SP Ron brought his scissors to the house. Why not – that girl last season brought her freaking spray tan machine.
We like Ellen in our household. She also does a good job of actually being helpful. Ellen asks some tough questions, and then makes the boys do a dance off. Then they take their pants off. I wonder if Pants Off Dance Off is still on TV.
Backstage the guys give Jason Bateman props for opening up. Twilly is still awkward. Chef has yet another pink shirt.
Fred gets rosed.
Rose Ceremony Pre-Party
DDah has concerns she needs to clear up. I give her credit for being direct with these boys. First up is SP Ron, who has called Jeremy out for lacking tact.
Ron: How are you?
DDah: Cold
“Not lacking tact” Ron does not offer his jacket. She thinks he’s too wrapped up in the guys and his feud with Jeremy. Can he lighten up?
SP Ron: Everything about me is fun.
Crickets: Chirping
Some Guy: Lots of words and intense looks that actually said “No.”
Jeremy steals DDah from SP Ron. Classic. SP Ron goes back into the house, which is now on alert. We see DDah and Jeremy walk off. We hear DDah thank Jeremy for saving her. OUCH!
Jesse stirs the pot. Ron rolls off some more clichés – cream rises to the top, and smoke is an indication of fire. He also says the Jeremy situation will take care of itself in two days or 10 years. SP Ron says Jeremy lacks integrity as we see Jeremy give DDah his jacket. In your FACE Ron! Jeremy also asks DDah if she would move to Dallas, and she said she could. I think that’s big.
Single Dad Jason gets some time with DDah where she gives him a certificate for a star that she had named after his son. That’s really sweet, people.
Dojo is totally gangster with that suit, and it just hit me that Jesse is also wearing a suit. Nice full Windsor knot on the tie.
The Rose Ceremony
Deliberation room time. OHCH and DDah break down some of the bachelors for us:
Brian: Nice, but always talks about the other guys
Twilly: Over the top
Jesse: Different, but fantastic
Graham: Her main focus is to get his guard down
Jeremy: Confident. She likes confidence
Ron: Bad conversations, and seems like a motivational speaker
Jason: Good. No matter what he will always have that star (uh oh)
The others did not get a run-down.
The Last Six Roses
- Twilly (what?!?)
- Jesse
- Jeremy
- Brian
- Graham
- Sean (Dojo)
Adios:
- Ron
- Paul
Paul is a good kid, and he’s a little shaken up.
Ron is delirious. He gives us another cliché, and I have a hard time writing it down because I am laughing too hard. “Sometimes the tree gets knocked down
before it gets to bear fruit.” If Jeremy is the one for her he wishes them the best*. He repeated that he was not rejected – she just chose other guys. I say rejected.
* “but it’s absolutely doomed for failure”
Next Week
Lincee will be back, and we get to see DDah wig out. Yay!
Thank you for letting me have this opportunity.

#143: It creeped you out because heterosexual men generally do not wear thumb rings.
Loved the pool scenes and getting to see the guy’s bod’s without their shirts on….Graham’s body kicks Jeremy’s a*s! He’s got that awesome cut, wirey body that looks so good, whereas Jeremy just looked like some scrawny skinny guy that piled a bunch of muscles onto his chicken bones and was parading around trying to show them off…GAG!
Good job, Some Guy – props to you for watching this show with your wife!
First of all, Ron was SOOOOO rejected – but if it helps him sleep at night to say he “just wasn’t chosen” then whatever. And Ellen was definitely pointing to his picture when she said his days were numbered!
And while I’ve only read a handful of the comments, I have to agree with the ones that say they think something’s fishy with Graham. Yes, he’s hot, but something is not quite right with him. He didn’t even act like he wanted to kiss DDAnna in the grove/pool area – she was definitely pushing herself on him and he was just going along with it.
Looking forward to next week’s PMS rage from DD – dang, nothing like letting the guys see her ‘true’ self!! Yikes!
And what about Sean? They never show him at all, yet he manages to get a rose every time!
I feel like the grammer police here…and maybe it is just how people with a southern accent speak, but I’m getting a little annoyed by DD saying “imporDant” and not “imporTant.”
I’ve been reading this blog now for several seasons of The Bachelor and have yet to leave a comment because you always seem to say everything that I’m thinking. It’s fantastic! That however changes today, because during my second screening of Sex and the City last night, I noticed a familiar forehead on an extra in one of the opening scenes. It was, I kid you not, Marshana. Has anyone else noticed this? AMAZING!
* Show me more Brian!!! Why is he NEVER on? Sneaky.
* I think some people are being too hard on Jesse. I find him quite amusing… much better than many of the other guys who are either way too darn cocky (*cough* chef: stop popping your collar *cough*) or have a stick up their tail-end. I’m not saying he’s right for DDAH, but he’s entertaining & adds some lightheartedness to the mix.
*Graham is how old? And his longest relationship post-high school was 5 months? I mean I’m a commitment phob myself (added that I’m probably too picky) so I understand but in any case I know I surely wouldn’t be sticking myself up for relationship commitment 500 like he did when he joined the show. -he’s still hot though-
*#101 butthead comment= classic.
That’s not grammAr…. it’s phonetics.
#151…Stacy! I am with you on the “importDant”. And I am from Alabama. It doesn’t get much more southern than that. And I can assure you I do not say “imporDant”
I think Dojo has a shot. He’s been left in the dust just waiting for his turn to show off some more of his KA-RA-TAY moves. Remember Jen from the Firestone days – nobody even knew she existed until the last few weeks.
And for the kiss – I guess it depends on whether or not you want it. If you want it – no he shouldn’t ask – just go for it. And if you don’t want it – thank god he asked so you can say no.
Nice job Some Guy – your wife must be proud! I wish my husband was willing to sit through the show with me, let alone recap it for a bunch of obsessed fans. May ABC never give up on this show – it’s too good!
Nice job with the recap Some Guy. I laughed out loud with the Pants Off Dance Off.
Thank God Ron is gone. I could’ve punched the guy several times this episode.
Good job Some Guy.
I got the impression the guys had to drop trou (?), trow (?), for the product placement of Ellen Boxers. Which begs the question why a funny lesbian comedian/talk show host felt the need to develop a mens boxer line.
Whenever I hear Fred all that runs through my head is Tommy Boy for some reason. “Build model airplanes the fairy says, well I’m not buyin’ it. Next thing you know there’s money missing from the dresser and your daughter’s knocked up. I’ve seen it a hundred times.”
You know that New York socialite who had all the plastic surgery and looks like a cat? That’s who Jeremy reminds me of.

As a Dallasite, i loved the DJ reference. It was bugging me who Brian remined me of and that’s who it is! Spot on! He’s a sleeper!
153 Addi I agree…Jesse’s humor is actually what makes him cute (although I admit to humor –and goofy humor included– to be a huge turn on,—many of my crushes are apparently really ugly (according to my friends) but I see hotness in humor. Probably why Bob G is my fave bachelor of all time. Not sure DD is the right one for him, but he’s awesome.
GREAT post Some Guy! And ChiCAHgo Fred is TOTALLY Jason Bateman!! I can’t get over his accent though. It is so not cute.
Can anyone figure out why Twilley is still there?
#152-Leslie–YES, I noticed too! I couldn’t believe it-bet Marshana’s so proud.
#151-Stacy-I would have told you that I say imporTant, and I’m from TX, but I just said it out loud and it came out as imporDant. Then my son said impor-nnnnnt. Don’t hate on us phoneticly challenged too much! :0
Lincee – we miss you but Some Guy was a good choice as a replacement. Thanks for the recap S.G.
.
I’m glad Ron is gone – he seemed to old and “issue-y”. And personally, I think Jason asking if he could ask to kiss DD, then asking was a tad awkward. If you’re gonna ask, just ask.
This has been my favorite b’lor/b’ette “season” yet. Things for the most part have stayed classy and DeAnna has so many awesome guys to choose from. She’s one lucky gal, and the guy that she ends up with is very lucky as well. As for the ask-before-he-kissed-her moment… Nope, not good. I feel like it shows a lack of confidence. All the signal you need is a hand to the side of the neck or face and a gentle pull and that gets the point across that you want a kiss. Stating the obvious just doesn’t seem romantic. It has killed the moment for me before. She seemed like she didn’t like the question, but went w/ it b/c she really likes him. My faves are forever Graham, Jesse and Jeremy. They’re adorable and have great personalities (so far). GREAT recap Some Guy!! You’re hilarious – I loved your take on Ron. I wanted to thump him in the nose so bad.
I think the thing that is strange about Graham is that he is movie star gorgeous and is on a dating show.
Anyone check out his web site? They are professional modeling photographs. He is simply on the show to promote himself. A man that looks like that does not need help in finding a woman.
http://www.grahambunn.com
Ron the barber scares me…can anyone say Sweeney Todd.
Ooooh, Nancy – #163 – thanks for the Graham link. He is sooo much cuter without the facial hair (which I think is not so attractive on him particularly). It also explains his “pro basketball player” profession. Nice – though I still want to know so much more about Brian. Yum, yum (at least so far).
I have to make one more comment about the kissing debate, though!! I am surprised by how many women think that asking ruins the moment! I am the first to love a confindent guy but seriously – what about those guys that are “confident” that shouldnt be?! Yuck! That would so much more ruin the moment than a gentleman asking (for me anyway)! And – Some Guy – what do you mean by those that say don’t do it have a better reasons? Aren’t manners a good reason? I think if you want a guy to kiss you and he asks first – how can that ruin the moment? It just seems all the more respectful to me. Just sayin’…..(yum, yum)
Well I remain firmly in the minority on the kissing thing. So be it. I think asking is sweet and shows a lot of respect. I’ve never minded either way… But I’m also probably about 20 years older than y’all!
Holy Moly!!! I checked out Graham’s website (# 163) and holy moly is all I can say. This guy is WAY too good looking for Deanna. He has got to be on the show for his career and not for her. Yowza. Smokin’ Hot.
SOME GUY, thanks for posting your recap. At least 95% of the reason I watch the show is so that I can laugh at Lincee’s recaps each week…I would have been really bummed if there were nothing to read this week- and you did a great job filling in. Very funny!
#101 Mothercita- didn’t look like anyone had responded to your DOJO question yet- he was the one who karate round-house kicked a lemon(or something like that) off of Jesse’s head on the first night- he’s a martial arts guy. And I love your Butthead comment and I’ll have to google Annette’s pic.
#119 Aggiechick- I totally agree that it was super-creepy when Ron said that everything about him was fun….and then just stared there with the awkward, glaring eyes. Yikes.
Can’t wait for DD’s meltdown next week!!
Richard was awesome, all he was missing was a little confidence. Not arrogance (Ron and Robert) just some confidence. Richard if you are out there reading this…DD missed out! Having someone that can make you laugh everyday is pretty cool.
After 17 years my hubby still makes me laugh. It took me a few months to figure out that he was the one, quiet – smart and funny. Too bad DD did not have a more time to see people’s true colors! Richard your bach days are almost done, they will be lining up at PTA meetings!
Maybe it’s a “Southern” thing, but it seems that Southern guys ask if they can kiss you often. I don’t mind it, I don’t think it signals a lack of confidence anymore than opening a door or pulling out a chair. Now, that being said, if a guy is cheesy, then this gesture will be cheesy. Kind of like it’s not sexual harassment if he looks like Moose (THANKYOUTHANKYOUTHANKYOU for helping me figure out who he reminded me of!!!), but it is if he looks like, oh say, creepy weird Paul…know what I mean?
On a personal note, on our first date, my BF and I were sitting on a park bench by the river–tres romantique, no? Our faces were thisclose and he still didn’t close the deal so I finally just said, “are you gonna kiss me or what?”. I still can’t believe I was so brazen, but he just laughed and said he was, “thinkin’ about it” and FINALLY kissed me a few minutes later. I wonder if most folks would think that was chivalrous, agressive, creepy, or something else?? Hmmm….
Is it just me, or does DD seem desperate? She sounds like she is just in dire NEED of marriage. I’m afraid she’s going to have a pastor waiting in the wings when she gives the final rose. She’ll ask her final pick, “Will you accept this rose?” Then he’ll drop to one knee to present the sponsored diamond ring, she’ll say yes, then out of the bushes will pop a pastor ready to get them married NOW.
I’ve not really loved any of the options yet. None of them seem like they’d be a good fit for her. I agree with everyone who says that DD is just too uptight. She seems to have the attitude that this show is her LAST CHANCE at love. She needs to turn down the intensity a little bit.
SomeGuy, loved the recap. I was hearing my husband’s voice while reading your post. He would ask the same question you did about the glasses at the campfire….so practical….
Some Guy, thank you for the commentary. It was hilarious! My husband watches with me and he says a lot of the same things you do.
My thoughts…..
DYawna: Has anyone else noticed the neck twitching? It totally goes along with the blinking. It drives me crazy!
Jeremy: #101 Mothercita, you are right on the mark. He is Butthead. His head is so long and his eyes are too close together. I am creeped out by him.
Graham: Wears a thumb ring…still? How 1990 of him. Bothers me that he cannot look DYawna in the eyes.
Dojo: Glad he got the haircut. My husband and I called him “pompamullet”. Why are we suddenly not seeing much of him, but yet she picked him? Is is because she doesn’t have any other choices?
Jason: Don’t ask for a kiss buddy, go in for the kill. I think most guys know when the time is right and if they don’t, don’t do it. I like him, but wonder if he is just going to be a puppy.
Brian: I believe he might be our dark horse friends. Gosh, he is so yummy. I want more air time of him. I am rooting for “Moose Jr”.
Cya SPRon…you are one strange dude!
Oh my gosh, can someone tell me what IMHO stands for?
=)
is anyone else reading through these posts saying “important” to themselves to hear how they say it???
#173 Julee–IMHO is “in my humble opinion.”
#71 – YES! Every week I say, “what? is she a cyclopse?” Ugh… eye…
Asking for a kiss: Don’t ask, just do. If I don’t want it, you’ll know when you lean if for it. IF you ask, I’m likely to instantly (and involuntarily) roll my eyes which I can assure you won’t lead to a kiss
ImporDant: I’m a Houstonian and I say “Impor-ent” like the T just gets lost in the word. But I also say Fixin’ and Used-ta Could (ex: You usedta could turn in there but now they have it blocked off) so who am I to judge…
DDah bugs — her accent is so forced and p/s did NOT notice it so much on HTC Brad’s season.
Save travels, Lincee. Nice job, Some Guy.
#174 – I am totally saying “important” to myself now – that is too funny.
OK – I know I am probably in the minority, but I don’t think Grahma is all that. He is creepy and even his cuter pics on his “CHARITY” website don’t do that much for me. I think he reminds me of Gary Cole, the creepy Ex of Dana Delaney on Deparate Housewives. IMHO
Asking if you can kiss a girl is a good way to ruin the moment. If you’re not sure – don’t do it.
#177 Laurel – I dont think Graham is that great either. He seems to get skinnier and scruffier each week. (Maybe because Im really starting to notice hunky Brian’s big broad shoulders as he towers over the other guys)
#179—I’ve been a Jeremy fan since the pics of the bach’s first surfaced….but after I saw him without his shirt, I still like him, but not so much looking at him….waaaay too skinny for my taste. I’m not too fond of Brian’s weird hair color, but am totally LOVING his bod! The guys with no shirts on is the ONLY reason I was the bach’ette shows. The Bachelor with all the crazy women is usually more fun, but this season with DD is turning into so much fun! Diggin’ Brian from TX-but don’t think he will make it much further….sad to say. I’m guessing Jesse, Jeremy and DOJO for the final three…ugggh. (but still lovin’ Jeremy….I think he is deep, dark and very sweet—love that combo). Can’t wait for next Tuesday when we hear Lincee’s take on DD’s pms outbreak!
…meant to say the only reason I WATCH, not WAS, the bach’ette shows. Webguy, I know we need to proofread, but in those instances when we don’t, it would be great if we could edit our own postings!!!???
Nice recap. I can’t believe you didn’t make a note of Chef looking like a plump Elvis impersonator. I thought well Lincee’s never mentioned it, but maybe someone else might. Maybe I’m the only one that thinks so, but either way good work.
Is anyone else watching these Bachelor marathons (or like me just the last 1 or 2 espisodes) on VH1? So fun to walk down memory lane. I totally forgot about the video messages the “girls” used to make after their dates and the bachelor got to watch before he handed out the roses. Funny. I watched Andrew Firestone’s season last night. One of the few I have got right on my picks but was so funny to see Kirsten say “The thought of him proposing to Jen makes me want to throw up.” was so funny! Fun TV for all! Today is Bachelor Bob – boy did I LOVE Kelly Jo!
I’m also loving the VH1 marathons! They should run them all the time.
Excellent recap, some guy. Very funny. What’s Pants Off Dance Off? Sounds hilarious.
After seeing Graham’s website, you have to wonder why the heck a guy like him is on a show like this trying to win a girl like her. It’s a serious career move.
I would like to first make excuses for myself for anything I might say. It’s really late (or early rather) and I should probably get some sleep. But I just now found time to watch this episode online and read all the comments, so bear with me.
#48- THANK YOU for reminding me of Chef saying his fingertips were cold!!! I thought… okay? Is she supposed to do something about that for you? It was random and whiny and actually reminded me a little bit of the Titanic when Rose, ever so helpful, informs Jack that his hands are cold. Duh. It’s called being in the middle of the ocean after your ship hit an ICEberg…anyway.
#50- I didn’t notice Graham drinking straight from the bottle, but I did notice after the rose ceremony that several of the guys looked like they were extra thirsty and had dumped the flowers out of several tastefully placed vases in the house (nice collaboration with ABC intern and Pier One- yay for teamwork!) so they could drink from their extra large “cups”. Or maybe they just aren’t fans of refills?
#86 Aimee- I definitely noticed the finger under the chin when Jason kissed her. Not once, but twice! I don’t like to critique anybody’s style, and maybe it works for him, but it actually looked like he was poking her…can’t be comfortable.
#119- If Twilley is only on the show for ratings, don’t you think ABC should actually show him? Not that i’m complaining at all– he looks like he either is high all the time or has been high one too many times before.
#174- yes, i have been saying “important” to see how it sounds. i can’t really tell, but i think it does sound more like a ‘d’ than a ‘t’. oh well. i’m from alabama, though not from the really country parts. and i know you are all questioning the existence of ‘non- country’ parts of alabama.
Lastly, I would like to commend the intern on his “Safety First” attitude. When the Cinderella carriage turned the corner and we saw it from behind, i noticed the orangey caution triangle. Very nice. I guess they figured just in case it didn’t have enough leftover Christmas lights strung around it, they should put a warning to other motorists.
p.s. good job some guy!
I looked at Grahams site again and yes when he is cleaned up he is hot. But that makes me wonder, why is he getting so scruffy ? If he shaved he might get even more attention. Does he just have a laid back personality, or is he purposely trying to downplay his looks? Maybe he doesnt want to be picked ?
Hi Past Bedtime,
I think he said he couldn’t feel his fingertips to indicate that he was so nervous and tingly around her that he was going numb. Say it with me now…PUKE! He’s so phony. Peace.
I have to comment again. I read all of your comments all the time and keep up with them daily…I know, I’m lame. But anyhoo, the Graham phenom….I’m not too into him. But I do think he is kinda cute. I like him better scruffy…probably the bad boy image I like. And it hides the fact that he has NO lips at all. I like full kissable lips. And the second he opens his mouth I want to run. I can’t stand his nasally voice. Is nasally even a word? He has a little boy, pinching his nose sound when he talks…..can’t STAND it. And I also sooo noticed DD leaning in not once, but twice, to kiss him. He didn’t lean towards her at all. Very telling, but so easy to miss when you are in the moment. Poor DD….she needs to realize he’s just not that into her and let him go.
Why am I still reading these? I am addicted.
1) Yes, I also saw Marshawna on SATC – classic!
2) I agree Chef Robert looks like a fat Elvis impersonator but creepier!
3) I also have been watching the Bachelor reruns – seriously, why? I cannot believe how different they were…to the girls on the couches, the mini video montages at the Pier One column…did ABC really spend $3 million dollars on Trista/Ryan’s wedding? I just can’t believe how much they icked out of ABC and me! Oh well, at least they are still together. I forgot how annoying Bob G’s laugh was? I forgot how darn cute that Andrew Firestone was! I love it and am glad to see them in reruns. I just wish we had past Lincee emails/blogs to reference, too! That would be a perfect world.
4) Lincee I also vote for you to blag on SYTYCD – I love that show and there are lots of adorable kids in it this year!
Til next week!
FINALLY I got to read this week’s blog and some guy did a great job! I am not let down!
But I would like to say I am NOT into the whole “May I kiss you??” thing. Seriously? MAN UP!!
Sorry – I mean eeked not icked and BLOG not blag.
And, Graham – not getting the hype. He is not that hot…way too skinny.
Jeremy – yes, very square faced – looks good sometimes and othertimes, not so much…
DOJO – I think he is a dark-horse cuz I swear I saw a segment and DD was kissing him and touching his pompemullet!
Bryan – more air time – I beg of you ABC! He is delicious!
Bye – again!
I am sorry if this was posted before and is old news to you all. Talk about career moves……

s2c-I read the article you posted-Does this mean that Jesse makes money from his sponsors by being on this show? If I interpret that correctly, I’m not so impressed with him.
