So Jill doesn’t want to marry a Ken doll.
That’s fine.
It’s time to rev up the silver Corvette and take a trip to Dallas. Can someone watch Skipper for me while I’m gone?
Oh…and should I wear my Peaches-N-Cream ball gown? Or my astronaut outfit?
Sound off below. Recap coming up.
Jake = new bachelor = Lt. Andy Baldwin X 10?
Love love love Jake, Jillian is an idiot for taking some of the other ‘tards over him. She thinks that she wants someone “spontaneous” and “imperfect” who can “challenge” her, which translates to emotional retard with severe commitment and mommy issues.
I’ll bet Jillian wishes she had at least one less rose to hand out. I don’t think she wanted to keep Michael, but had to give the last rose to someone and kept the “fun guy”. Jake is great, but he was definitely in friend territory and seemed a bit too eager to marry her. I believe his heart will go on…
ha!
There’s only one word for the sight of Tanner putting his package on display in front of the lodge fireplace….PINEAPPLE!
LOL! You nailed on the head SA. I didn’t get to watch last night but will this afternoon. It better be more interesting than last week! Jilly, your head is not in the game! Lincee- go get your Ken Doll!
I think it all boils down to Jillian not having as much confidence as she lets on at first impression. She needs someone that makes her feel more confident, whether that be a younger guy, a guy who’s more into her than she’s into him, or a guy who’s more forthright about his flaws.
I was soo, so sad for Jake. However, he was a bit too strong and too much for me, so I don’t really blame her. I hope she doesn’t pick Kyptonite because I want a chance at him
Ok, so if Ed doesn’t come back I’m thinking Jesse or Reid? The upcoming previews look pretty juicy, but I’m ready for the end.
OMG, I LOVED my Barbie’s Peaches-n-Cream ball gown! I vote for that one!
I’ve decided Jillian is just dumb. I adore Jake (though his golly gee schtick could easily get on the nerves) and she made a very very dumb move by picking Michael over him. And it grosses me out that she doesn’t wash her fruits and vegetables.
I’m definitely Team Kiptyn now that Ed and Jake are gone!
Any room for me in the car when you take your trip to Dallas? I would take Jake in a heartbeat over ANY of the other guys!
#4 – sc – Oh it’s much better than last week!
I’ve said this already on the other post, but it can’t be said enought…DID SHE NOT SEE THE AZZ IN THOSE JEANS WHEN JAKE STOOD UP!?!?!? OMG!!!! You could put sit a drink on that thing and bounce a quarter off of it!!! We’ll be racing on the Texas highway Lincee b/c I’m coming too!!!! MaggieMay is gonna do some searching for me for Jake…I’m going to look for Ed here in Chicago and we are gonna double…if we can clone you can come too! lol
Poor Jake. He is an absolute doll…. but he is indeed a Ken doll. I actually called him that last night and somehow had a feeling Lincee would too!
He is so sweet and I think he needs a precious little barbie to go with him! My favorite Barbie was Peaches N’ Cream barbie, so I think Lincee should dress like that.
Everytime Reid wears his glasses, I proclaim “CHAND-lah BING!” in my most Janice voice possible.
Also… at the end, when Michael says “We just harmonized. It’s science” in that Will Ferrell Anchorman voice, Diet Coke came out of my nose.
What the crap? I really thought someone was going to spill the beans about Wes when he ended up getting a rose. I’m glad Jake comes back to call him out
LOVE – LOVE – LOVE Kyptonite’s parents in the previews!!! The yellow DO NOT CROSS tape in front of the hot tub … Classic!!
I’m guessing the returning person is actually Ed … even tho we are led to believe it’s Jake. So glad Jake chats it up w/ her long enough to reveal Wes’ comments/intentions.
Ohhhhhh the drama … !!!!
I don’t know about you, but I almost had to take EVERY TYPE of motion sickness medicine to watch the beginning of last night’s show…..the patch, the band, the bracelet….
All I know is that the ABC intern has been fired for the brilliant MOVING TRAIN EPSIDODE IDEA.
And did anyone else feel like they were watching a documentary or infomercial for the Rocky Mountaineer?? I believe we had 436 shots of the train.
I think Michael the break dance instructor shed more tears over Robbie being let go than Jillie did.
Tanner’s big package and an obsession with Mango Mango toenail polish? What?
And I hate to say it folks, but I think Kiptynite may not have the Kiptynite in the bedroom. Do you think it might be him?
I have to say, I was really excited about Jillian being the Bachlorette but I’ve quickly grown tired of her. She is a complete idiot. I hope she picks Wes and he dumps her for his music career (which I predict won’t be a long lasting one). She deserves anything she gets!
#5 Jamie: I think you hit the nail on the head, Sister Greenbeaner! Last season when Jillian was having her out-of-order meeting with Jason in the coffee shop, I thought she seemed cautious because of her maturity. Now I think that caution is really a lack of confidence.
Gee, I think next week we’ll get to hear Wes’s song again… Argh!
#10 – Jen the Newlywed – I was laughing so hard when Michael said “its science” – I had to call my husband cause thats his favorite movie! Michael cracks me up… I wonder if he doesn’t get a rose he’ll call Jilly a “smelly pirate hooker”?!
I think she really liked Jake, that first date she was so into him. Then she got distracted by the other guys (who could blame her) and started wondering what was wrong with him…since he was so into her! Low self esteem??? Love Jake!
Reid = comedy
Jesse= a ton of kissing in the previews!
Kiptonite= Totally hot and intelligent, hmmm will he get some more time???
Michael= cute but not the passionate man to marry
You know, I completely understand where Jilly is coming from on Jake, though. I’ve had that happen to me before – where the guy seems perfect, is handsome, and says all the right things, but there’s still no spark. It’s not anyone’s fault. If it’s not there, it’s not there – and that confirmed it for me when Jake laid his heart on the line in the train and they kissed. She was SO not into that kiss, and I knew he was going home.
I think either some great editing is going on, or Wes is some type of actor made to stir drama into the show. Who comes out and admits on national TV that he’s there for the wrong reasons?? It just doesn’t make sense. He obviously knows it could, and has gotten back to her…and if women across America despise him, how is that going to sell records? I don’t know, something seems off. Unless the editors are removing him saying: “I WAS here to promote my record, but now I’ve really fallen for this girl…” or something like that.
He couldn’t really be that dense…could he?
#13…if it’s Kyptinite that isn’t “kyptininte” in the bedroom, does that make him Limptonite?
i think the drama related to the fantasy suite dates is really due to someone choosing to stay in their own room rather than foregoing it to stay in the fantasy suite. it makes perfect sense using all the teaser lines they’ve given us and i just don’t think they’re going to reveal someone’s E.D. on national television.
as for her getting rid of jake and keeping michael, i had to pick my jaw up off the floor once it all set in. seriously, jillian?!
OMG, Lincee, I loved my Peaches-N-Creme Barbie.
Oh My Awesomeness! “Pineapple” indeed canuckgirl. That was just too much for me to handle last night. Is it just me, or is there an awful lot of trouser dropping this season? Seriously guys… keep your damn pants on.
I like Jake, but that “Awe shucks” attitude is a little bit too much for me. I hope Lincee can find him before he becomes the next bachelor. He reminds me of Andy Baldwin, and I’m not sure I could take a whole season of everything being so cute, and so amazing, and gosh she’s so great.
I really wonder what Jillian is thinking about Wes, as she’s watching thes episodes. I’m positive the producers aren’t giving him the “bad guy” edit. He really is a “bad guy”. I know that the majority of the people that go on this show do it for other reasons, but they are usually not this completely open about it. I doubt she ends up with him, but it’s a shame that she let go of some other good guys to keep this “country singing terd” (direct quote from Ed) around as long as she did. He intoduces her to his band during the home town visit? He’s a piece of work. If Apple put his cheesy single up as a free song of the week, I still wouldn’t download it.
I’m picking Jesse for her. I’m still team Reid, but I don’t know if he can keep up with her on the long term
Why would she want a Ken doll when she can have Psycho Guitar Ken? Good gawd, y’all. I cannot STAND the site of Wes and can’t believe she is falling for his act hook, line, and sinker!
If ABC gives that stupid band one second of airtime next week, my head might blow up.
Now I really can’t wait to watch it. I just started cracking up about the Michael-Anchorman comment. I think that Jillian has been into Kiptynite hands down from day 1. Did anyone else notice last week where he skirted the girlfriend question??? “Yeah and I have 2 wives” or whatever he said? That did not sit well with me. He is the only one I can imagine Jill feeling crushed over having a case of ED! I love Michael’s carefree and happy attitude, and his sense of humor- but I think he and Jillian have zero chemistry. Still don’t see why she keeps creepy D-bag Wes around.
Okay, something’s not adding up. Why in the world wouldn’t Jake just ask her to come outside after the Rose Ceremony and tell her about Wes. Why this big dramatic display of barging in on Wes’ hometown date? Seriously that seems a little over the top and concocted. In the previews Wes clearly tells Jill and/ or the cameras straight up that he came on the show to get publicity for his singing career. Too much honesty a little too late, dude. I can’t believe it has taken Jillian this long to figure that one out. I’m not believing it. I am starting to think that so much of this show is “produced” and not reality TV at all. If Ed really does come back, then, c’mon….that’s proof yet again that this is not real, but overly produced and contrived bull.
OKAY, SO I POSTED THIS LAST NIGHT ON LAST WEEK’S RECAP…I STAND BY MY WORDS AND HAVE A FEW MORE TO ADD:
She didn’t want to see the package, but she noticed it was huge!? You’ve got to be kidding me! AND SHE DIDN’T NOTICE JAKE’S DIMPLES OR NICELY CLOTHED HINEY? (I’M WITH YOU SAGGLEO, THE PILOT HAS A WELL-HONED BACKSIDE)
Michael over Jake? I’m bettin’ it’s Michael that can’t salute when it comes to overnights….MICHAEL IS SO YOUNG HE DOESN’T KNOW COME HERE FROM SIC ‘EM….HE CRIES OVER ANOTHER MAN…’NUFF SAID.
Reid over Jake? I would take “perfect” over nuts (the mind kind, not the “package” kind) anytime. HIS WHOLE FONDUE PHOBIA WAS SO NOT RIGHT….I MEAN, IF HE WERE A REAL MAN, HE WOULD KEEP HIS MOUTH SHUT AND GET OVER IT…
Tanner being dismissed was clearly in the plans….EVEN THOUGH THAT SUCKIN’ MECHANISM OF HIS COULD COME IN HANDY ….TANNER WAS JUST TOO MUCH OF A PRETTY BOY FOR OUR CLEARLY LACKING BRAINS BACHELORETTE.
Wes is a complete and total Richard (no nicknames here)…..good for Jake comin’ back to call him out…wonder if Jake is the one that the previews show throwing wrench into the proposal plans? RICHARD IS A WANNABE…AND HE DOESN’T WANNABE JILLIAN’S MAN.
My apologies if I have offended anyone with my comments….I’m old and opinionated and would hang my boys by their toenails if they acted like some of these dogs.
#10 jen & #16 Amy–I am with you girls–laughed my butt off at the “it’s science” comment:) I love Michael, like a puppy, but I do love him…
Jake is sweet, but with his “golly gee” Eddie Haskell stuff I just kept rolling my eyes. And seriously, did he think it was a good idea to tell her she reminded him of his mom??? Even my boyfriend said, “oh no Jake” when he made that comment.
And I have posted this on the other page, but it bears repeating–if you haven’t already, PLEASE READ Hare’s blog today–I nearly spit out my coffee (for shame!) reading Tanner’s REAL comments about being “blessed”. I miss Tanner already:) Go Mango Mango!
http://popwatch.ew.com/popwatch/2009/06/chris-harrison-blogs-the-bachelorette-episode-6.html#more
Oh My Awesomeness with Reid and the fondue – thank you, Reid!! I’ve been to The Melting Pot and I find it disgusting, as well…. sticking raw meat in the same broth over and over… ew is all I have to say. (although, the cheese and chocolate is yummy!
)
And, for the love of pete, Jillian – wash your fruits and vegetables!!
Mr. Perfect had to go. His Beaver Cleaver sayings are too much! It’s not 1950, Jakey. Golly Gee Mrs. Cleaver, I really, really like you! (awkward giggle-smile). I’m sure he never leaves the house with an unpressed shirt, untucked (including sweaters!!) or hair unkempt. He has perfect posture. Back straight, shoulders back, always smiles and is always polite. He needs loosen up and stop trying to impress his mother.
On the other hand, good for him for coming back to the show and trying to fight for Jill, if that’s what’s really happening there. The show left it open for Ed to come back with the wording, but they could mean only Jake.
Poor Michael is in the friend zone, but he’s just too funny/fun to kick out.
Wes probably IS that dense. Here in Austin, so many girls completely abandon any sense of self in order to be with a musician. His cockiness probably stems from so many girls swooning while he is onstage. He probably assumes that ladies all over the country are falling for his gargling horse-voice and his grimy hair. (Even my husband makes fun of his horrible clothes and hair!) Why would admitting why he is really there affect him?! He probably thinks it makes his legions of lady-fans SOOOO happy to know he is still available.
It seems like a girl who is REALLY ready to get married isn’t still attracted to a guy like Wes – even as he presents himself to her, rather than what we see. She seems really immature and rather insecure. All of the other guys that are left seem like nice people – I hope it works out for her with one of them. (I like Reid, myself – and yes, Kip-Tyne’s parents seem hilarious with the caution tape!)
Single and ready to mingle
Did anyone almost fall out of her chair at the sight of Kiptyinite’s abs on the way to the hot tub? OMG.
PS: Jake lives in DALLAS of all places – I am pretty sure he won’t be hurting for attention from the ladies.
I must be alone… I think Jake would be an awful Bachelor. He is sweet and adorable, but I think he would make the MOST boring Bachelor EVER. Plus, I think he would fall for every single woman on the show and be a wreck by the end of it.
I think it is Ed coming back more now than ever. However, they make it look like he doesn’t come back until the FINAL rose ceremony and that he proposes?? WTF?
Wes needed to be pushed off that train. I am glad Jake comes back to call him out. I am glad Tanner is gone, however, I loved his “Mango-Mango” comment! Too funny!
#23 – sc said, Now I really can’t wait to watch it. I just started cracking up about the Michael-Anchorman comment. I think that Jillian has been into Kiptynite hands down from day 1. Did anyone else notice last week where he skirted the girlfriend question??? “Yeah and I have 2 wives” or whatever he said? That did not sit well with me.”
Actually I think that was Reid and I took that completely as a joke and him making light of the situation and wanting to take advantage of the time to spend with her and not talk about the other guys. I didn’t see it as a bad thing….b/c it didn’t come off that way to me. I cracked up actually. And she used that excuse as to why she got rid of Tanner yet, she kept trying to talk about it any other time. You don’t like the dude..you don’t like him.
My friends and I are in D.C., sadly where a metro train ran into one another (prayers to the families) and we missed a good hour including the Robby D!! kick off. No matter what we missed, we did not miss Jillian choosing Wes. Seriously, that is reason enough to boycott the show. What a dumb dumb female. Ihategreenbeans is reason enough to unboycott the show though
Predictions: Ed’s definitely coming back, he’s the one joining the rose ceremony, Jake interrupts the hometown date and he wins the hearts of women around the country, just not Jilly’s. Chris and the ABC intern force Jilly to kick Wes off. I bet Jesse wins. I’m pretty okay with perfect, I’d love to find a Jake out there…but faith is a key part of perfect!!
Favorite Quote: “Now that I see how softt her feet are, I want to take her home and meet my family!”
Wes is smoking something if he thinks that Bachelorette fans will adore him for what he is doing.
I think that he made it clear that he didn’t care if she cut him loose or not but that since he has her wrapped around his finger that he isn’t going anywhere.
She made a big speech about how up to this point it was about who didn’t fit with her and now it was about who did. How can Michael fit? He is a great guy but not in the same place in life as she is. Not just age but everything.
How could she not just meet Jake’s family and decide from there in his own environment how he is?
Jilly Jilly Jilly……
L-O-V-E JAKE!!!
So sad to see him go!
Jake for the next Bachelor!!!!
#27 Amy – I hear you! I didn’t get the whole “Reid is really neurotic” thing. I love fondue, but I have a thing about touching raw chicken, or raw meat. It freaks me out, even though I’m the one who makes dinner most of the time. Is it irrational? Sure, but I still have to wash my hands a few times in hot water to feel better about it.
My point is – everybody has something, right?
Also, SO glad Tanner is gone. As I said to my husband last night: “I actually really like feet, but Tanner is making me hate them!!”
Did anyone else want to kick Wes in the teeth when he said “I have Jill wrapped around my little finger.”? I wish evil things for him.
Omg!! Did anyone notice how obsessed tanner was w/ Jillians feet!! I was about to hurl when he started talking about how cute and perfect they were “If she would paint them mango-mango they would be a perfect 10″ Huh?? Weird!!!…and what’s up with him saying, and I quote, “Now that i’ve felt how soft jills feet are i just can’t wait for her to meet my family…” What??!!! Lol what does her having soft feet have to do w/ her meeting his family??!! But I’m so glad fettish is gone…He was such a weird-o!! And i agree with Aunt B #25 completly!! Can’t wait for the recap Lincee!! <3
Read Jillian’s blog about what she thinks of Wes now, after actually seeing last night’s show…
http://tvwatch.people.com/2009/06/23/bachelorette-blog-jillian-on-wes-jake-and-her-wardrobe/?cp=all
#10- Jen You totally CALLED IT. I thought the exact thing, he is very Chandler Bing!
I was really miffed that train conductor gal told Reid to nix the glasses. WRONG, wrong wrong.
Reid + Glasses = Hotsy Totsy. I LOVED his fondue freak-out. Oh Reid. Why are my ears red all fo the sudden??? do tell.
AND YES- when Michael says “We just harmonized. It’s science.” in that Will Ferrell Anchorman voice,” OMG. I thought, right there, ok… NOW I know why she likes Michael. I like Michael… but since when does breakdancing pay the bills??? The same reason she booted off ROBBY D!!!!! (age & wage) should have been the reason to boot off Michael… but no.. she keeps the clown and ditches the pilot???!! WTF?? The pilot who is pretty much meets all the criteria that came out of her mouth as to why she dropped Robby on the other side of the tracks? She makes NO SENSE. Jillian does not = science.
Oh Jake, Jake Jake…. I would LOVE for him to be the next bachelor… maybe he can fly someone to the moon, Golly! If I weren’t married I would be flying every American Airlines flight out of Dallas till I found him.
If he’s taken by one of you all, maybe he could just fly me to Chicago fo find Ed.
But really, the next Bachelor should totally be Tanner-fetish. We can have an entire episode with group date toenail painting and one episode with a big toe fashion show. And the Home Depot Proposal Pedestal could be sponsored by Sally Hansen or OPI Polish. It has endless possibilities, and imagine the match… one fetish meets another? Now that would be great tv.
And secretly, deep down, I know you all just can’t wait to hear the rest of Wes’s song… so it can be OVER!
I’m here in Dallas and ready to start stalking Jake at the Addison Airport. Kinda looks like he flies small commercial, so that’d be my first place to start looking!
Jules, I’m all for the boot-to-the-head for Wes for saying that. I dont care if they cut and pasted certain things he said to make it sound that bad, but karma’s gonna bite his career in the arse for saying that crap on national television.
Can’t wait for the Bachelors Tell All for this one!!!
One more thing (because I really should be working – LOL!)
You’d think that if Wes’s “Publicist” told him to go on the show…. he/she would have at least also told him to get a decent wardrobe!! His clothes annoy me almost as much as his music. He looks dirty and smelly.
First of all, I am deeply saddened by the fact that Wes is still around. He is a complete and utter d-bag and Jillian is most definitely kicking herself after watching last night’s episode.
Secondly, I have to say that I found the way Robby D got booted from the train and left in the middle of nowhere pretty flipping classless. I mean… I know the rules of the one-on-one dates, and I realize that if you don’t get a rose, you get sent packing. But his exit had to have been pretty embarrassing, with all of the other guys waving to him from the train, etc. I dunno. I had a total crush on Robby D, though, and I lost major respect for our girl Jilly over this.
Regarding Reid and his neuroses, I have to say that I found his fondue phobia rather endearing! I have issues with handling raw meat, too, and I thought it was cute that he let his guard down and acted like a dork in front of Jillian. I’ll take neurotic over bland perfection anyday!
I’m so glad we got to see one more shot of Tanner Toejam crazy before he got the boot. The package (large as it was) and the mango mango toe nail polish! LOVED IT!
If I were 4 inches shorter I’d be on a plane to Dallas to find Jake. What’s so bad about being with a good guy who’s going to love you and be very devoted?
I still don’t know how Wes thinks that going on national television and acting like a complete cheese ass is going to help him sell music? I don’t want to listen to songs by guys like that.
did anyone else notice the quick note from “PilotJake” (comment #30)??? Just curious is this is “jake” making his presence known (if so, Jake: ask Lincee out!) or if it’s just a faker….
Did anyone else think that Tanner may have a boyfriend back home, and he should open a pedicure salon in the near future? I don’t know how much financial analyzing he’ll be doing after showing the world how “blessed” he is.
I thought it was sweet that Michael cried when Robby D got the boot in the middle of nowhere. He’s young but seems to have a heart of gold. However, not Jillian’s type.
I also think Wes was loaded when he “confessed” his alterior motives. I don’t remember the pink shirt he wore, but I’m thinking he said all that early in the season.
I think Wes gets kicked off after being outed for the girlfriend by Jake, Ed comes back next week, then Wes comes back at the final rose ceremony and says he had the gf but fell in love and proposes to Jilly. I think she’ll buy it too but ends up with either Jesse or Reid (I’m guessing Reid because we haven’t seen enough airtime to actually like Jesse yet). Poor Jillian! And Jake was sooooo not her type.
I know it’s been said before, but Jake TOTALLY reminded me of Tom Cruise on his exit speech…the way he laughed and the way he was talking….freaky.
All of you joke about going out to find Jake in Dallas, but really, how does one find him???? (I’m not kidding)
Why does Jillian get to go on five hometown dates??
#18 Jenna, I was thinking the same thing…is this for real? Why would Wes admit all that on TV or are they editing it? Also, it seems like in the interviews she does now, she refers to him fondly and that they are friends, so surely he’s not as big of a d*ck as they are trying to portray…
I thought Reid, Kiptyn and Jesse were hot last night! She should have had these three and Jake as her final 4.
I didn’t everyone’s comments yet – but I will. My initial thoughts…
Best lines – “She knows about my foot fetish and that I AM BLESSED…”
“I am not ready to see packages yet – I mean it was HUGE but not yet”
I think it is Reid with the “disfunction in the bedroom” and I am so frickin excited that ED is coming back – OMG!
Kaite, darlin’, where have you been! That’s why everyone calls Tanner “fetish”, because from day 1 he has been all about the feet!
and for all of you facebookers, I vote to start a group called “wes is a creepy d-bag and I will never listen to his music!”
Oh, and the Jake and Wes showdown – amazing!
#44 Kendall, good plan!
Lots of people are touting Jake for the next Bachelor….love him…but want him as far away from this farce as possible. He needs to find a nice girl outside of a television show. Betcha he’ll have plenty now.
I’m sorry, Jake WAS cute and all, but how could one ever be intimate with a dude that tells you he reminds you of his mother??
seriously. wes can’t be THAT dumb. he knows he’s on national tv. he knows that if he’s a dorkwad that no one is going to buy his album… is this a set up??
Cheeseass #43 said “But really, the next Bachelor should totally be Tanner-fetish. We can have an entire episode with group date toenail painting and one episode with a big toe fashion show. And the Home Depot Proposal Pedestal could be sponsored by Sally Hansen or OPI Polish. It has endless possibilities, and imagine the match… one fetish meets another? Now that would be great tv.”
OMFG, I love it!!! Tanner P bothered me in the beginning, but by the end, I could totally see why the guys love him. He’s freaking hilarious! If I wasn’t married, I’d probably even go out on a date with him. But my feet aren’t that great, so he and I could just be friends.
Right before he dropped his pants, my hubby predicted he was well-endowed, because only someone who is “blessed” (as we now know from OHCH’s blog is not what Tanner actually said) would do that. Hubby missed the “hung like a light switch” episode. Anyway, I will truly miss Tanner and his jokes. I only wish that joke Wes was gone too.
Mango mango.
What the heck was Jillian on when she was rambling on about the snow? What a moron. And poor Robby D getting dumped in the middle of nowhere. This show is just really starting to irritate me.
If you read OHCH blog Robby D was actually at the station when we was dumped, it just looks like he is in the middle of nowhere
Jake may be an “aw shucks” kind of guy, but he’s still hot and the total package. I was sad for him to leave!
Wes is a complete tool!
Reid is quirky and neurotic as hell, but there’s something about him….
My prediction: Kipton and Jesse will be the last men standing.
Overnight, schtup (sp?) dates are Wes and Reid for sure. It’s their voices saying something about wanting to spend the night. How many go on the s*x dates? 3? And no one has E.D.–they probably get sick, a headache, change their mind about Jillian, whatever. We are being led to believe it is E.D., but give me a break. That is NOT it. It’s like saying, “On next week’s Bach-ette, Jillian has s*x with 3 dudes in 3 nights!”. Puh-lease. We are not fooled ABC!!
So I’m in my jammies, with my bowl of popcorn (Pop Secret Homestyle, of course) and Caffeine-Free Diet Coke, ready for our show (which I missed last week because I was on a mission trip)…….the POWER GOES OUT!!!!!!!!!
I waited an hour then gave up and went to Target.
GRRRRR.
Of course, we have been duped by editing before…
Lincee, I am 56 years old and have experienced plenty in my day, but I gotta tell ya that when Fetish dropped trou in front of the fire I had my head down and my hands over my ears. If someone had a telescope focused on me last night they were undoubtedly thinking I’ve reverted to my girlhood, between the squealing, the wiggling in the chair like I needed to pee, and the horror of seeing sheer stupidity when she chose Wes. Forget the “throwing somebody under the bus” — a couple of folks were hit by trains last night, and I think Jillian is going to mightily regret her choices! Yowza.
This might be way out there, but I think the man coming back is Wes. It may be a far reaching prediction, but this is why – Jake comes back and tells Jillian that Wes has a girlfriend. Jillian gets rid of Wes. Wes comes back with this whole “I didn’t realize that I really fell for you” story. 2 things that may support my prediction 1) A shot of men’s shoes indicating a “return” were bronze or some crazy color. Ed would never wear bronze shoes. 2) Jillian said he said all the things she’s been wanting to hear from him in the preview (or something like that). I don’t think she had THAT kind of relationship with Ed when Ed left. It was more lite, fun, cute kind of thing.
At least one thing that blows my prediction out of the water is that I think I saw Wes in the last episode previews.
It’s just so weird how they set it up for you to think Ed would come back. ABC isn’t that obvious.
Ok….so they were on the train, looking at the scenery & they came across a lake. We hear Jilly say she wants a cabin in this area & off-camera you can hear dumb a$$ Wes ask Jilly if this is a lake or the ocean…..ummmmmmm hello!!!!! They are in the MIDDLE OF CANADA!!!! That in itself would have made me give him the ol’ cowboy boot up the arse so I can fly away with Jake.
She is an idiot & is getting on my nerves….I don’t think she is as confident as she let’s on. Also, does it bother anyone else that she always says “me & so-and-so did this”…she never says “so-and-so & I”….bad bad bad grammer!!!
#14 – I totally agree! She’s not very smart although she seems to think she’s got it all figured out.
And could Wes be any more apparent when her was adamanet about not liking a “Tattle-tale”. Really, Wes, if you’re on the up-&-up why the issue??
Lol – Peaches and Cream ballgown. I remember my Barbies peaches and cream ballgown. It was one of her favorites!
#33 – I’m with you about Jake being an awful Bachelor. After he got booted, my husband said, ‘Mark my words…’ He didn’t even have to complete his sentence before I knew exactly what he was talking about.
I had to say no. He would chicken peck them all on the cheeks and wouldn’t be able to attend a single rose ceremony because he would be too afraid to hurt anyones feelings. He is all too perfect and GORGEOUS…but not the next Bachelor. I don’t think he’d agree to it anyway.
And as for Wes. OMG. I wanted to throw up when I saw his band in the previews. I immediately reverted back to the conversation he had with the guys in the lodge about being there for the publicity and blah blah. Now, that’s confirmed… If Jill doesnt see it, she’s blind.
As for the guy who can’t ‘get it up’ on their overnight date – there’s no way that’s what they’e talking about. BUT, I think it’s Reid. It’s his voice most definitely!
People! You need to wash your fruits and veggies!!! Doesn’t Jilly watch Oprah???? They even recomend a special rinse not just water! Reid is so not the neurotic for wanting to stave off salmonilla (sp?) and ecoli by not wanting to cross contaminate his meat either !!! Jilly= gross and retarded ( for not seeing thru Wes).
Wes got very defensive when Tanner said he was the one that told. He making such a big fuss…why so don’t show Jillian my hidden agenda. Then he was ready to knock out Jake it seemed at the rose ceremony with his – why you looking at me crap. Hmm….tho protest too much?!?!
And I’m sorry but tehre is no way…NO WAY..they can edit out pieces of him saying the things he said like it was taken out of context. WHY would anyone say that if they didn’t have a purpose to be there for something else? I’m not buying that…he said it all and there’s no..hypothetical crap behind it. No real man would do that. Well no human with respect for another person would do that!
He’s the biggest of cheese asses that ever where of cheese asses made of cheese!!!! Plus he looks like he smells bad so that bill really fits him!
#46 Julie–they didn’t ditch Robby in the middle of nowhere, they were at a train station. And while I agree it was harsh that the other guys watched him leave, I don’t think Jillian had anything whatsoever to do with that decision.
All I kept saying was NOOO!!!!!! WHY OH WHY!!! Seriously, why did she get rid of the HOT PILOT?!!! Jake should be the next Bachelor. I adore him!
Wes is still the jerk that every one except Jillian seems to know he is and yet she kept him. I swear, if I hear him talk about his new CD one more time….. And I’m sorry, even if I did like Wes’s music, I wouldn’t listen to it. Character means a lot, and his character means I wouldn’t touch his CD with a 10 foot pole.
#28 – Closet-Bachelorette-Fan Said,
Mr. Perfect had to go. His Beaver Cleaver sayings are too much! It’s not 1950, Jakey. Golly Gee Mrs. Cleaver, I really, really like you! (awkward giggle-smile). I’m sure he never leaves the house with an unpressed shirt, untucked (including sweaters!!) or hair unkempt. He has perfect posture. Back straight, shoulders back, always smiles and is always polite. ”
Um…with a backside like THAT…it’s good to have great posture to show that puppy in all it’s glory!!!! LOL I’m sorry but I’m still trying to wonder how they DID NOT show that in all this time! Lordy lordy…me!!!
Has anyone seen that Brendan Fraser movie “Bedazzled”? Jake totally reminds me of the “super sensitive” guy who weeps at the sunsets and the girl ditches him for the tattooed guy.
And Reid wasn’t just neurotic for washing his vegetables, it was also that he 1) admits to overanalyzing everything; 2) questions the guys to death; 3) admits to being a hypochondriac; and 4) is skeeved out eating fondue–the oil is boiling for criminy’s sake! Also, i think it was kind of crude to suggest that his ears being red might mean that one is horny, but in his case it meant high blood pressure…huh?
I was really on the Reid team (after Ed left, of course), but now I have no one to love…Kip is okay, I guess…
I could NOT wait until I got home tonight to check out this thread. Thank God for office doors you can close.
Saggleo & I are indeed on a mission. I know we’re all questioning Jillian’s judgement but how many of us have been “blinded” by a Wes? He’s a slimeball but he’s smart. Besides Jake has to be available for the plan Saggleo & I have put together.
I cannot wait to read Lincee’s take on last nights train wreck (pun intended). I think it’s Ed that comes back at the end (but I really hope I’m wrong).
#76 – Missy said, Also, i think it was kind of crude to suggest that his ears being red might mean that one is horny, but in his case it meant high blood pressure…huh? ”
I think they were being funny and saying the pc answer versus the …I’m gonna jump you the second I can answer. lol I thought it was funny. I like that he showed his goofy side…better to know now and see if you can deal with it or if you like it than…to not. People jacking Jake for being “perfect” yet Reid shows his maybe “not so perfect side” (to some I guess) and getting a little crap for that….so what is a dude to do then?!?!
They seem very at ease with each other. I also notice with Kip that they seem into each other as well..they are always immediately sitting basically right on top of each and touching and talking all at the same time. I seriously think she’s into Kip more than any of the others.
All right….I liked Jake a lot but I totally understand her decision. I have a friend who is almost perfect in every way, puts a check next to every item on my “list”….adnd I’m just not into him. I don’t KNOW why not. But I understand. It’s really is like Jillian said – when you meet the right person, when you have a connection, you just throw out the list.
My friend and I, pathetic dorks that we are, actually froze the picture and moved forward screen by screen with both the E.D. scene and the “return” scene. We can’t tell for sure who either one is, but we can say for pretty sure that the E.D. guy is NOT Kiptyn – you can see a part of the chest and Kip’s abs (thank you ABC for the shirtless moment last night – its ABOUT FREAKIN’ TIME!!) um, distinctive. And also almost certainly the person who comes back is not Ed – if you look at the height relative to the door knob, its someone who is shorter than Ed.
I’m going on record now, crazy as it sounds, that she picks Michael in the end. As a bachelor connoisseur, I’m telling you right now that no one is just a “break dance instructor” and that he’s also something else, like chief choreographer for a dance company or something. We’ll see….:)
#77 MaggieMay – oh how I wish I had a door to close! It’s not stopping me though..I love lunch time on tuesdays!
Yes, indeed a plan we do have!
I don’t know if it would be Ed coming back to propose b/c when he left he wasn’t at a stage of let’s get married with her or whatever, so you should be good for our mission!
I’m ALL about the facebooking #52 SC!!! Today I joined the Jake from the bachelorette fanclub, and Jake Pavelka for the NEXT Bachelor
Saggleo – Having an office totally rocks, especially on Tuesdays. I think you’re right, they were getting to that stage quickly but weren’t there yet. We need to get you to Dallas PRONTO. You sweep up Jake – fly up and get me and we’re Chi-town bound! We should just hire him to do a charter flight. If American Express was created for anything it was invented for THAT.
I think I am on board with those of you who think that Wes is the one that comes back. In the upcoming scenes they showed ‘Jilly Bean’ and him together with him saying, “I want to go to the fantasy suite”, which leads you to believe he has an overnight. But that was a shot from the Western group date b/c I remember him saying that to her then (and he was wearing the same fugly shirt)…so I think he will get booted after Jake outs him and then comes back in the end for one last press appearance before the big CD debut.
HELOOOOOO JAKE! Way to grow a backbone! He is hot, especially in a uniform! I’m glad he is supposed to make his way back on to call out Wes!
I was hoping for some juicy e.d. news and instead I see Tanner in his tightly whities. I’m wondering why they blurred it out…as Jillian recapped it must have been huge!
I cannot believe Tanner or Jake didn’t out Wes right there when they left the rose ceremony. I totally would have taken him down!! What a tool! SHOCKER SHOCKER SHOCKER-Wes introduces her to his band next episode….where are they practicing? A junkyard? I’ll be glad when Wes’ cd drops, flops and then burns! I can’t wait until the “after the rose” ceremony with OHCH
#84 – they’ve had some real whackadoos before (remember Trish from Jessie’s season?). She didn’t care (or was too stupid to know it) how she came across.
The Men Tell All episode is going to be a riot this time. OHCH will finally be able to call out Dave & Fetish along with Wes.
Jake’s a total hottie and will definitely make the right girl happy, but I agree with everyone who thinks he would be an awful bachelor. Love the “eddie haskell” reference….I could barely handle listening to/watching him speak because his “aw, shucks, golly” thing seemed so contrived. But ultimately, I think he was just nervous and they didn’t have a single “natural” conversation.
However, like I told my boyfriend (who had to leave the room whenever Jake was on screen because the fake-ness was a bit much for him), every single Southern Belle from Texas to Georgia’s going to be calling him…he’ll be just fine! And Jen #10, you hit the nail on the head! I’ve been calling Reid “Chandler” since day 1! Classic.
I hope no one buys a single one of Wes’s albums! Although I’m not sure anyone would anyway….
Oh I gotta add…Jillian’s outfits were pretty cute this epidose. I love that jacket she had on w/ the red flannel. In her blog she talks about how she had to get creative w/ clothing since she didn’t bring enough (let alone enough warm things) to wear.
I really like the rose ceremony dress she wore as well. I’d prefer a v-neck on it for myself, but it was nicely tailored to her.
not gonna lie, im REALLY getting sick of Jilly. she is just starting to annoy me.
also, absolutely CANNOT WAIT for the men tell all. it shall be great! (:
#78–saggleo–”People jacking Jake for being “perfect” yet Reid shows his maybe “not so perfect side” (to some I guess) and getting a little crap for that….so what is a dude to do then?!?!”
Um, I don’t know, be somewhere between Woody Allen and Eddie Haskell??? There is a WHOLE lot of room in between and Jesse, Kip, etc. seem to realize that
Seriously, I have a friend who is a Reid (admittedly, he is nowhere near that cute, though) and this hypochondriac/OCD/neurotic thing wears thin quickly. He’s funny as heck (Reid and my friend), but that will only take you so far….
#89 – Missy – I don’t know why but your reply has me chuckling! LOL
I don’t know it’s like a damn if you do and damn if you don’t thing in a little way but Jillian seems to like it. I don’t know I’m a little analytical myself so I guess I sympathize, but I my stories are entertaining so I can’t say much for someone I don’t really know! lol
And I said it before, but Reid and Jillian favor a bit to me…I always see it when they are sitting next to each other.
I’m sorry all you Jake-adorers who are road tripping to hunt him down – I want him to hook up with Stephanie from Jason’s season. I think they’re both PERFECT and perfect for each other!
Sorry, Jilly, but if Robby D – the between jobs 25-year old bartender got booted for not knowing how to pay the bills in five years, why in the world would you keep an aspiring country singer (cause you know it’s a sure thing that he will make it big, like all the zillions of hopefuls every year…right???) and a 25-year old breakdance instructor (cause it’s SOOOO likely he’ll be doing that job in ten years!).
#67 – “Ok….so they were on the train, looking at the scenery & they came across a lake. We hear Jilly say she wants a cabin in this area & off-camera you can hear dumb a$$ Wes ask Jilly if this is a lake or the ocean…..ummmmmmm hello!!!!! They are in the MIDDLE OF CANADA!!!! That in itself would have made me give him the ol’ cowboy boot up the arse…”
THANK YOU! OMG, I was falling off the chair laughing at his idiocy and thinking “Surely she will let him go now, the man doesn’t even know Kindergarten level geography.” But no, she is too entranced by his state of unwash.
The only thing keeping me going is I didn’t see any tattoos like Wes has all over him on the overnight date clips. Please God, let it be true and not just more interesting editting.
The thing that kept popping into my head while I watched last night was that clearly there must be one last Barbara Moss franchise left in Canada, and Jillian is on a mission to bring back the Buffalo Check tunics they were so famous for in 1983.
#92 – I’m with you on Wes. Take away the question of his motive for being there, take away his lack of geography education – Just the simple fact that he does not seem to have showered since the Bachelorette began would be enough for me to send him home!!
#91….I thought the exact same thing! I don’t see anything wrong with him, and his “golly gee whiz” outlook! He and Steph would be a perfect match!!!
I’ve decided I want to see Jake after he’s had a few shots of tequila…. if his ‘perfectness’ slipped a few notches and his hair was a bit mussed, guard down, he’d be deeeeeeeeelectable!
I hate Wes. I hate Wes. I hate Wes. I hate Wes. I hate Wes!
UGH!
I wasn’t THAT surprised that she sent Jake packing – when he was telling her how he felt, she didn’t seem all that into it – she seemed a little worried he would be the clingy guy. As someone who has dated the clingy guy, I can tell you, he’s not for everyone.
Yeah, Jake seems like the greatest guy in the world, and is definitely a candidate for the next Bachelor, but he definitely seems a little too into finding the “perfect woman.”
Though, I seriously hope he messes up Wes’ hometown date next week. That man needs to GO. “I have Jillian wrapped around my little finger???” What an A-HOLE!
I hate hate hate hate hate Wes!!!!!
UGH!

Oops, sorry for the double post.
#98 – no worries adriana….saying I hate Wes can not be said enough!!!!
What a cheese-ass!
So my prediction is that she does send Wes packing before the final rose ceremony (she has to wise up and some point) and then he’s the one who comes back to “sweep her off her feet” (of course, gaining even more publicity) and propose?!?
And if this were the Bachelor, and that Wes crap was happening, there isn’t a girl in the room who wouldn’t run to the guy and tell him what that bi**h was up to…why are guys so loyal to each other??? Makes me wonder what ANY of them are doing there.
I say we all go to a Wes show and throw things at him. Susan can pitch him her new lyrics for Love Don’t Come Easy. It would be fun.
I say no to Jake for next bachelor. I want new blood! No more rejects.
Jillian says in her blog that we should trust her because in the end this is all worth it. I really can’t imagine her getting married and having kids with ANY of the guys left!
Wes: Yeah, like he’ll stick around for long.
Reid: Too much of a neurotic fussy-pants.
Michael: Fun, but then maybe she wouldn’t have to have kids right away!
Kyptonite and Jesse: I dunno. They just don’t seem to go together to me – yet anyway – maybe there’s a lot they are not showing us on purpose?
As far as Jake being the next Bachelor, I see why people would want him to be because he seems so sincere, etc, but it seems like we all get mad at the Bachelor/ette at some point in the show, so maybe he can just find his perfect girl in Dallas and skip all the drama?!!
Tanner: Pineapple! (and mango mango!)
I hope Ed comes back – he seemed the most like Jillian’s “type” – just my opinion!
Silly Jilly’s blog:
http://tvwatch.people.com/2009/06/23/bachelorette-blog-jillian-on-wes-jake-and-her-wardrobe/
BTW, Jill, I didn’t recycle this week.
Wes almost looked like he had bitten off more than he can chew when he realized he’s gotta take her home now. You could almost see the wheels turning….”Hmmm…I hadn’t planned on her keeping me this long and wanting to meet my family…..maybe I can hook up the band and get us ALL some publicity! This could work after all.”
He’s a donkey.
Are we sure Kiptonite is in the final four? I didn’t see him in the previews much…and I found Reid oddly attractive last night…but he reminds me so much of Mathew Perry from Friends. Jake reminds me of Tom Cruise…some really similar mannerisms…. weird.
I hate Wes.
Michael, sorry, but he’s just a pal/puppy dog. I’d go for Kip or Reid, personally. I think she’ll be between Kip and Jesse.
#92 – I said the same thing asking if it was a lake or ocean. He needs to go soon!!
wonder if she had a bad experience in dallas? she let both dallas boys go. one rightfully so, and the other one not so much.
i understand what people are saying about jake making the “mom” comment, but if a guy comes from a really good home, with great parents, why wouldn’t you take it as a compliment? maybe i’m weird for that. it’s not like he’s saying she looked like his mom (that would be creepy), but had a great character. whether you like it or not, girls tend to date their dads and guys tend to date their moms. whether good examples or bad, that’s just how it is.
those of you road tripping to dallas, let me know when you get here. we can stakeout the airports together. ;o)
#106…I agree, Jake reminded me of Tom Cruise in his final monologue. A better looking version of Tom Cruise that is.
I’m not buying that erectile dysfunction is in any way going to be part of the show! No Way!! I think she just realizes that she has no romantic feelings for whoever it is, probably Reid, and can’t do the deed.
Did anyone notice in the “coming up” segment after the show that they completely blacked out a guy’s head? Must be Ed!
I hate to say it, but all of you who love Jake–you must be the same ones who loved Jason?
Jake’s a fake!!! His smile is so forced and he is eerily nice and reminds me of someone who could turn out to be a serial killer!! To #28: Yes! Eddie Haskell!! lol~
I hope she picks Reid (or Ed)–and if she doesn’t, I hope one of them is the next Bachelor!
#23 sc – Kip did not say he had two wives, Reid was the one that said that and side stepped the whole girlfriend thing after a very long pause!
Come on Hare, couldn’t you have hinted that Wes was an @#$%? Hare comes off as a friend to talk things over with, but it is an illusion…
Pavelka? What is that…polish? Czech?
I don’t think Jake and Stephanie would be a good match. She was pretty tall and Jake is pretty short. I heard her on a Kiss FM interivew talking about Jason saying the chemistry wasn’t there and that he was too small for her and she felt like she towered over him in heels….
take me on your road trip to dallas
i think the love for jake is a southern thing.
personally i find him cheesy and booooring.
#115…I am a northern girl through and through, and I must admit, I thought Jake was a catch. To each his own!
Lincee…go get him!
I think we should take every american airlines flight available until we find Jake. he’s so hott!!!!!!!!!! you can stay w/ me when you come to Dallas!!! We’ll go searching for him together.
Wes is the biggest D-bag i’ve ever seen in my LIFE.
