Jake is FINALLY getting his man on with this crop of potential “wives”. Weed ‘um out, dude!
*Ali must feel canary yellow is her signature color
*Gia’s grammar was the worst
*Jessie was working the teal green eye shadow (Bonnie Bell days, for sure)
I honestly think Jake is above all of this in the end, unfortunately!
Susan Said,
Is it just me, or does Jake have absolutely zero chemistry with any of these women? It all seems so forced. Even more so than usual.
#2, it does seem like he has zero or very little chemistry with most/all of the girls but it seems like that is usually the case with most of these shows. they show very little meaningful interaction and the contestants act like they have a unique and real connection after 60 mins of chit chat over a two week period. it’s all such a joke but that’s what i find entertaining.
sprite Said,
No Susan #2 it is not just you. He really does not seem to be into any of them. Ashleigh was too aggressive and the group that I was watching with all said she would go. Jessie was never shown and she tattled so she would go. Ella was kept for the mother story line but no chemistry so she was a goner. Katheryn not shown and no chemisty=gone. Corrie shown very little so she will undoubtably be gone soon. Gia shown a little more than Corrie, but still seems forced…Will last a little longer but just don’t see it…Really heels for camping? Tenley who talks about her divorce all the time…Not the one. Ali is shown bitching about Vienna and Jake the tattle tale doesn’t like tattle tales. There is chemistry here but he resents her about disliking Vienna and she resents him about liking Vienna…so bye bye. We are left with Vienna? There is chemisty here also, but the other girls warning him about her is starting to bug him and the lights seem to be coming on. Sadly I am thinking Jake will dump them all.
Sherm Said,
Loved that the wardrobe consultant obviously said to them, “Ladies, we want this opening sequence to look like someone opened a container of rainbow sprinkles and spewed them all over the couch. Can you help us out?” Never have I seen so many different colors of sweat outfits in one place.
Funniest moment of the night: Tenley asking Jake if he was comfortable while his head was in her lap and his nose was literally an eighth of an inch away from her boob. I half expected him to say “Mama!”
I agree that it all seems very forced. But it always does. I’m a sucker for wanting them to find love, so I will keep hoping, although it really doesn’t look likely this time.
Santorini Said,
Wow, down to 5 already, from 25! Jake seems anxious to get it over with — He sure doesn’t look like he’s having much fun. I agree he is too mature for most of the girls. Did you know OHCH is going to be on Ellen tomorrow (Wednesday)? Here’s his blog, while we wait for Lincee’s recap:
Sherm, I TOTALLY noticed that about the sweat outfits. I don’t own one of those, and for a second, I thought, “Wait, did I miss something? Does EVERYONE have one of those?” I think it must have been on their packing list or something. With a checklist of colors so no duplicates.
em Said,
I think my favorite part was when Gia said she was ecstatic(k)ed.
Mallory Said,
Tomorrow? *cries* Haven’t watched the episode yet (I watch it on Tuesday, because better shows come on during the same time period) but at least I’ll have plenty of time now.
Daddy Amonst Mommies Said,
When one of the girls said “Highway of Love”, was I the only person that said “there is the title of the blog tomorrow!!!!!!!”
lvdmusician Said,
Between Gia’s glow-in-the-dark cherry red lipstick and her freaking out about raccoons (I know she’s from NY, but c’mon) she needs to go (although in the previews for next week Jake tells her/us he’s really falling for her.) The conversations are just painful to listen to. Did anyone else hear the crickets chirping? And my take on the sweat outfits is that they all had a similar design, just in different colors – maybe there’s an official Bachelor one? Oooo, where can I buy it?!! (No way….)
Like a bad accident, I just can’t stop watching this….
-get new Lee Press-on Nails (like the ones Ella so clearly needs- hers were YELLOWING!)
-purchase 80′s make-up and cocktail dress (thanks for that Jessy, we needed a laugh)
AmandainDallas Said,
Jake has no chemistry with these chicks – maybe he shouldn’t have kept all the dummies and let the smart gals go on the first night? Or MAYBE he should be on the Bachelorette instead, know what I am saying? Of any of them, he seems to have the most chemistry with Gia though…
Ashleigh cocked her head to the side to much and said, “What’s up?” way to much – he just had nothing to say to her, bless her heart.
Why was Jessie even still on the show? I never even talks to her – it was like he just overlooked her.
Vienna will now always be referred to by me as “The Sausage.” I didn’t see how she was so mean and nasty in prior weeks – I just thought she was dumb. But this week, she was EXTRA dumb – seriously wanted to punch her the face. Glad Jessie told him that she was a spoiled little daddy’s girl. I think the producers made Jake keep her.
And yeah, I thought he was a pilot not a Harley Davidson representative (not the baddest bike on the block either, my friend.) I am waiting for them to play some “Life in the Fastlane” except Jake is wallpaper to me…….snorrrrrrrrrrrrrrre. I mean there is NOTHING funny about this guy AT ALL – I could never be with a guy who can’t make me laugh. Luckily my man is a hoot. Bring in the recap…..
alsofromtexas Said,
funny husband comment…”whoa, they are NOT going to let those girls drive the buses are they!?!?”
also, I guess someone needs to explain to Gia that although Jake wants kids, he doesn’t want to start with full grown 23 yr olds. Stop climbing the man like a 2 year old child! that REALLY bugged me.
Ali- what a snot blossom! “I call shot gun” “dibs on 1st shower” “if Vienna doesn’t go, Jake is going to get a talk from me” bossy bossy
and doesn’t it seem like she is manipulating the other girls into doing her dirty work? sending them in to talk to Jake about how awful V is & getting themselves sent home in the process? brilliant, actually!
Kelly Said,
So who invited Brenda Walsh to the rose ceremony? Oh wait, that was Jessie. (I swear I wore that exact same outfit, dress/hose/eyeshadow, to the Homecoming Dance ’94
mothercita Said,
OMGia, did she really use the word “broughten”, as in “so glad he’s broughten me here”? I seriously thought I heard that. She’s on my last nerve–from those lips to the Flashdance off-the-shoulder-too-long sleeves to the stiletto Harley ride (did anyone notice that she ditched the heels for vineyard hide & seek?)
And how about Ashleigh’s business sprawled out all over the sofa when she was desperately trying to connect with The Bore? I hope that was some kind of “hot pants” outfit? Yikes.
Do 31 yr. old dudes REALLY use the word “refreshing” to describe a girl? He seems more like a 50 yr. old politician.
“On The Wings of Love” piano version? Yes, please! That made my night!
As for the sweats, I think they were donated by Victoria Secret, like those boy/girl silhouette hats and tanks from Jason’s season. That way, the girls have something cute and technicolor to wear around the mansion and VS gets some on-air time.
I’m glad Jake finally gave OHCH a rose, because their bromance seems like it is straight out of a fairy tale.
mothercita Said,
Oh, and note to ABC stylist: We get it, Ali is the natural beauty, but you might suggest she brush her hair every once in a while.
#18, mothercita: Thank you!! I agree completely. Where would she be without her hair clip?
Eric Said,
This is what happens when you weed out the first 10-15 based on looks alone. Sure you don’t have a lot of time to figure out who’s got a brain…but that’s what a resume is for. I’d be collecting them.
If I were to ever go on this show…and obviously I won’t…assuming my intent was to find “the one” as opposed to just making out with a bunch of hot chicks, I’d demand more time with the first 25. I’d want an actual date/alone time with each one, hour minimum. It could be at McDonalds for all I care. But I’d need to know the girl can hold a fricken conversation.
Jake may pick one, I’m sure as the final episode nears it will “all become clear” and he’ll know “exactly what to do”…but it won’t last.
Kelly Said,
My friends and I missed the first twenty minutes or so and therefore missed Gia’s date. Lincee, you better do justice to what really happened!
Cindy Said,
Ugh… this show is getting worse and worse… Ali dissing V all the time..can she say ANYTHING nice? I liked Gia a lot last night. Seems very sweet, just too New York for our Texas boy. Afraid of raccoons?? really? They were too stinkin cute!!! And I’m glad Jake told V to tone it down. It sounded like the teacher telling a student to play nice. I don’t think he ends up with any of these “ladies”.
Anastasia Beaverhousen Said,
Agree with those who think this all seems forced. I’ve thought Jake was a phony from the get go. I don’t buy his act at all. The more I watch, the more I’m convinced he is gay. He just doesn’t have that natural ease with the women. Something’s definitely off.
OMG, I was so embarrassed for Ashleigh. Not a flattering angle, hon.
And I think Gia is a sweet girl, but her laugh made me want to throw my TV out the window. So annoying!
I LOL’d at the instrumental “Wings of Love” and at them trying to front like that was really Jake riding that motorcycle down the highway. Please.
Linda Said,
sf_chris – you are totally right, I thought the same thing about Jake looking like Rick Moranis is Space Balls with that ginormous helmet. What is up with that?
Jake is a bore – no chemistry with any of the gals. He must have kept Vienna because he had to. I think he is so on to her – shoot, how could he not be with every one of the girls warning him.
Why did Ashley feel she had to throw herself all over Jake. I guess because they had absolutely nothing to talk about. There was a little too much awkward silence. How many times were they going to say “Soooo, how are you” to each other.
And yes – Ali is getting a little too bratty and bossy.
How many weeks is this season supposed to last? Because Jake sure is getting rid of them fast. They’ll probably throw a couple of weeks of “The Bachelor Tells All” episodes. And, of course our seasonal update on Ryan and Krista.
OKCBecky Said,
Random thought: could it be that there is appeal to having a rich father-in-law? since Jake was the king of ‘throw he-shall-not-be-named’ under the bus last season with Jillian (and he was right), it’s the only conclusion I can draw. If anyone should be sensitive to all the girls warning him about Vienna (and take it to heart) – it’s Jake. So, I’ve decided that Jake is a male gold digger and likes the idea of potentially marrying into a wealthy family. While I haven’t seen anything about Vienna that would draw all the ‘hate’ from the other girls – bottom line: she’s 23, very immature, and yes – seems to be daddy’s little spoiled rich girl. Honestly, wish I had rich daddy as well, but not to be….
That’s my story – and I’m sticking to it!
Linda Said,
PS – I like the comment about the Bromance. Maybe you are right Anastasia Beaverhousen – Maybe Jake is gay.
I felt Jessie’s rose ceremony outfit was a little whorish. And also total kiss of death when she was talking to Jake about Vienna Sausage. I knew she was going home because we hadn’t seen her all season and suddenly she was talking.
Capri Said,
So glad to be rid of Ashleigh. I just straight up didn’t like her. I thought it was hysterical how she said something about some of the girls being more affectionate than others and she’d never do that because it looked desperate. Then in the next scene she’s draped all over Jake!
Rachel Said,
Does anyone else miss Michelle? Girlfriend was cra-zzzay but so entertaining.
Also. Jessie equals Bump-It.
Leah Said,
This rose shall not be given out on the “two-on-one” date… no, no….it shall be… BURNED! I thought that was hilarious when Jake slowly walks up to the fire and tosses the rose in. He definitely has a flare for drama that one! He is always pausing and wincing before he speaks, or before he before he tosses an ABC supermarket rose into flames!
oh dear Said,
I’m currently watching it online – first thoughts – nice shaving over a trash can, manly man. Also, I would totally be keeping Miss Gia around ’til the over night dates. I’m a girl, but she is HOT. .
BA Said,
Capri, in the Entertainment Weekly recap, the writer called that “The Irony Edit.” I thought that was so funny!
yup Said,
I’m standing behind Jake. I think he’s wholesome, not gay. Being careful. Heart is involved. This is harder than he thought and the crop of girls left is not that great. He’s rearranging deck chairs on the Titanic.
Ella Southern Mumma has got to be about 40. Seriously. 29? Yeah, right. If she is, so am I!
Did Catherine slit her own throat when she was whiney to Jake about being ignored on the duo date?
Ali is definitely the ringleader, bossy flossy. Cute, but waaaaaaay too controlling. Queen of snark.
If Vienna Sausage’s sugardaddy has so much jack, why didn’t he get her eyes fixed as a baby?
Gia needs to use a mirror when applying color to the joker lips. And you are a woman, not a monkey. Stand on your own two feet.
Jessie’s eyeshadow. Ha HA HA. Emerald Oz. HA HA HA Nuff said. Liked the black dress tho, and she does have a smoking body if I do say so as a fellow female.
Ashleigh also seems older than her “published age” and should have kept her cards a little closer to home during the one on one time. I don’t think Jake wanted a lap dance from her just yet.
Tenley has to rid herself of the terrible Marcia brady hair and get out of the past. She’s a beautiful girl, even if her voice is a bit annoying.
Corrie is beautiful and seems the most well-rounded to me. BUT her comedy act is still in my brain like a sliver. She lost points with me being so snotty, even if Vienna Sausage had it coming.
oh dear Said,
Did anyone else notice that Gia and Jake had no less than THREE bottles of wine?!?! Someone’s going to be nursing a massive hangover in the morning…
Dave Said,
I have resigned myself to the fact that Jake’s over-reaching douche-tastic-ness is going to force him to pick Vienna in the end. It’s like watching hairs circle the tub drain. The show is sinking like the Titanic, and Capt. Vienna is at the helm.
SOS!
Dave Said,
And yes, “douche-tastic-ness ” is in the dictionary. There is a picture of Jake with his helmet and sunglasses on next to the definition.
BA Said,
I just thought of something.Vienna is not getting the evil “He who shall not be named” edit. Meaning, maybe the producers are purposely not showing us stuff so that we don’t totally hate Vienna. And the only reason I can think why they would do that is because she makes it to the end.
With Wes, they knew he wasn’t going to make it, and it was more drama to make us all really hate him. You know what I mean?
I like that Jake also gave us the disclaimer after the 2 on 1 date “This is the first of many decisions that I’m going to make that no one is going to understand.” Apparently we’re in for more WTF moments!
oh dear Said,
“I had sand in every crevice of my body”. TMI, Ashleigh, TMI.
Jake is growing on me. Like a mold.
Jenna Said,
#38 – As much as I don’t want to admit it, I think you’re right. And that kills me! But what’s weird is how they’ll try in the coming weeks to spin it. Because right now, they have no drama. The only drama is how much the other women hate Vienna. But what are they going to do when it’s time to make “America fall in love” with her? We don’t like her for most reasons, and also by proxy because that’s what we’re fed every week: “Vienna is awful, she’s the worst, yuck.”
So how in the world are the producers going to make us like and care for her in the end? Or will it be a case of everyone screaming “NO!!!” at the end?
Marus Said,
i hope he picks no one. Jake is 31. Gia is 26. Tenley and Ali are 25. Corrie and Vienna are 23.
Even putting ages aside, they are all way too young….
Does anyone else remember hearing a preview in the beginning of the season with a voiceover of someone saying that she’s not ashamed of being a virgin, but that it’s not really anyone’s business? Who do you think it is? Tenley and Vienna were married… Ali lived with a bf i think… that leaves Gia and Corrie…
Travelbug Said,
Hey all! I agree with Yup (#34) that Jake is just wholesome, not gay. He seems utterly deflated now. Maybe the giant helmet is squeezing his brain. His problem is that he is now getting TOO picky. He is dumping them so fast this show is going to be over in 2 weeks cause no one will be left. Jake and Chris Harrison will be standing at the rose ceremony listening to the grasshoppers chirp going HELLOOOO?
YIKES! Said,
It wouldn’t surprise me when Ali is named the next reject who becomes the Bachelorette (although she is getting a horrible edit). Maybe she hasn’t been playing nice with the producers?
Cringe worthy indeed when Kathryn and Jake had their one on one and all he could talk about were her eyes……NO CONNECTION WHAT-SO-EVER as with Ella, Jessie, Ashliegh and even Corrie.
This season especially, but the girls are falling in love with the process. Sadly, Jake will not acquire the co-pilot he is looking for. Waa-Waa!
Travelbug Said,
Jake: “Chris Harrison, will you accept this rose? You’re the only one here and I don’t find Gary the camera guy attractive.”
Bachelorettejunkie Said,
In Gia’s defense, raccoons are actually really mean, despite how cute they are! But the funny part was when she thought it was a skunk – hahahahaha! I guess it’s all the same to a New Yorker
Nancy Said,
Something about Gia I just can’t stand… the lips? the lisp? the atrocious grammar? the babytalk? the wardrobe? the way she pulls all of her hair around to the front of her shoulders to maximize volume?
She seems nice enough, but — ick!
Ali hasn’t totally lost me yet — but she’s getting there… still, she’s the best one left… and that’s hard for me to say, because I HATE yellow – and that seems to be the dominant color in her wardrobe. I mean, really, how many yellow dresses can one woman have?
Still impressed with Jake’s ever-strengthening backbone (though, man, he’s clearing out the house quickly!). I’m guessing he won’t end up with anyone in this batch – he’ll have to settle for hooking up with a reject bachelorette from a previous season! But not on The Bachelor Pad – even with his no-more-mister-nice-guy MO, I’m thinking he’d get eaten alive in that house!
irishcurls Said,
i seriously screamed and hid behind my hand during ashleigh’s one on one time. holy awkward.
i’m surprised how much i liked gia on their date. she is pretty city-girl for him but she might be the most genuine of them left. well, and corrie but they have no spark.
ali is miss bossy, but i agree with whomever said she’ll be the next bach-ette.
my theory is that he didnt want to give roses to vienna, ashleigh OR jessie but abc was like, whoa buddy. keep her for good tv then, thanks. so, heres vienna to stay. bleh.
he picks no one, i can feel it.
Alan Said,
The most interesting women were shown the door in the first couple of episodes, and now it’s just Ali and the Airheads. OHCH has mentioned that Jake and motorcycles weren’t a natural match, and poor guy looks like a dork in his huge helmet, riding as gingerly as if he’s on ice. It looks more like a Triumph than a Harley.
My favorite cringe-inducing moment of the night was when Ashleigh apparently thought that Jake asking, “So, what else?” meant that he wanted her to hike her leg over his lap and show her hoo-ha to all of America.
Lauren Said,
I think #38 has a good theory…..hate the results, but I agree with the thinking.
saggleo Said,
#49 – Alan…It is a Triumph. On Jake’s blog last week he said it was a 2007 Triumph Bonneville. You are good dude!!!
I don’t like any of the women left for Jake and I didn’t even see his date with Gia. Ali dissing Vienna (and yeah it could be overused in editing and who knows if she’s saying that much, but she had to say it in the first place for them to use it)…doesn’t make her such great wife material to me. It’s just showing she’s too young. If you are all about ready to be married and all this and that junk…then worry about yourself and be a WOMAN and work on your “connection” with Jake and leave the other chicks out of it. And her “he’s going to get a talking to”…nice way to show a man what kind of marriage he’ll be getting with you if things don’t go your way. Sure fire way to send yourself home! buh-bye
They may not be showing all of what the Vienna hate is about, and I’m sure it’s that she’s just immature and spoiled and they can’t stand that. Etiher way it’s harmless…ignore her and she’ll go away or tone it down. But again…worry about your own backyard.
I knew when he came back in he was going to pick Vienna. I think he’s partly doing it to test the ones left. LOL I would.
I tell ya, I gotta give Jake his props! He’s cutting them out just as fast as I would if I wasn’t feeling it! Why waste time? He may be kind of cheesy but he seems like a genuinely nice, stand up man. Nothing wrong with that. I’m sure he has his faults, but who doesn’t.
Lincee I know this is going to be a comedic gold performance of a blog from you once again.
Joy Said,
First… did anyone else notice the bad edits with Kathryn? Her hair was out of place, then it wasn’t… then it was again? Bad edits people!
I just feel like this is all going to end badly…. either with Vienna (this reminds me of the British guy season where he ended up with Shayne Lamas) but maybe they are doing that so that Jake can appear on the new reject Summer Bachelor/Bachelorette show. Makes for a great tease! He picks no one… he’s still searching… and look, his search brought him back for the big reunion show!
And of course… I am eagerly awaiting that show! Can’t wait!
Also can’t wait for this week’s recap. Lord knows they gave you lots to work with.
Marus Said,
i think he must see something in vienna that he really likes… not only for keeping her, but for setting her straight on how she’s bringing the drama on herself and that she should tone it down. i don’t like her so much for him anymore (she’s just so YOUNG), but you gotta have a pretty good vibe i think to be that honest with someone (rather than just cut her loose).
ali’s comments at the rose ceremony were unnecessary and mean. she said them enough under her breath so jake couldn’t hear, but loud enough for vienna to hear. that seals the deal on my dislike of ali.
i’m now team jake-dumps-them-all-and-goes-home-to-find-an-age-appropriate-woman-with-a-real-job.
Rachel Said,
Wow- Jake is the man. Cutting them as quickly as he can. Personally, I would too. He has a group of loser chicks…seriously.
Gia- I think she used to have a stuttering problem or some other kind of speech disorder. I think that’s why they way she articulates sounds funny. She’s trying to overcompensate for it. But her laugh is annoying, but if Jake likes the squealy, fake cutesy girl type (well he did like Jillian!), then Gia seems perfect.
Ali- she’s one nasty girl. Sorry, I know lots like her, but mean edit or not, she’s saying and doing all those things. You have to give them material. I don’t understand her little rant at the rose ceremony over Vienna. If she really feels that way, speak up and let Jake now. Just don’t go on and on under your breath to poor little Tenley who Ali knows will just sit and listen. I totally agree that she’s controlling these girls and convincing them to do her dirty work.
Vienna- she is annoying. Poor Jake…
Ashleigh- ‘m glad she’s gone. I didn’t like her vibe. Plus she looked like a fool during her one-on-one time.
Jake is ending this show empty handed. No way does he pick these girls. He almost looks like he wants to wrap it up and go home. He’s not even having fun just making out with them (which I have to give him props for being in the game for more than just some booty.)
Rachel Said,
Oh and did anyone else think that all those motorcycle rides weren’t really Jake? My hubby was the one that said “that dude on the bike doesn’t even look like Jake.” Naturally we had to rewind and pause a few times, but whoever was on that bike was short and stubby and older looking.
Tracy Said,
#38 BA – Well if they didn’t want us to hate Vienna, they shouldn’t have shown her on the first episode having lunch with her dog, telling us about her numerous accidents, rich daddy and mani/pedi’s with her dog. Coupled with the fact that they constantly show how disliked she is by ALL the other girls…what are we to think? I think she is spoiled, snotty, immature and very uncertain as to what she wants out of life…based on what they have shown
Did anyone else die laughing at Tenley’s comment Ella and Katheryn before their 2-on-1 date?? I was cracking up…”I mean, you have a 50/50 chance of leaving, right? hehehehe…oh, sorry!” Hilarious…she is my new fave now that Ali has gone all crazy over Vienna. I can understand not liking someone, but she is completely obsessed over it! Get over it already. Jake must like something about her. That does not mean that you and Vienna are anything alike! And who in the world told Ali that yellow is her color? I am bored with the yellow already.
Jessie looked like a hooker at the rose ceremony.
Poor Ashleigh looked so desperate as she laid draped all over him saying “I’m not going to make myself look despearate.” Was she drunk??
And I liked Gia last night although I could have done without Jake carrying through the vineyard like a child.
John Said,
Was it just me or was the Captain hot?
Something tells me she is probably only interested in grownups.
Amanda Said,
hahah. i also hear jake likes dirty girls look at this article for some other great one-liners. thanks, bachelor, for all this great entertainment!!!
Katherine? I seriously didn’t know this chick was on the show until last night. Still didn’t remember her name but saw someone else mentioned it. I still haven’t figured out the vienna thing. Is she really horrible and they are just editing it out? Or (after teaching jr. high girls) Have the cool girls decided to hate her and make sure everyone else does too?
OMG, I almost peed my pants when they showed the racoons stalking the girls at the end of the show. Great job ABC cameraman. You deserve the Emmy!
Rachel Said,
57- Tracy- I totally cracked up at that line too. Tenley seems awfully cute. I just wish she was a little more ready to move on from her previous relationship. It seems like she’s still nursing the wounds.
Darryl Said,
It is looking like Vienna will end up in F2. However, I also believe that he goes home with the problem in hand. I don’t think he is that attracted to any of the girls. The thing that blows this out of the water is the clip where Vienna goes into her hotel room. This act of desparation will doom her. I think the pressure from Ali is getting to Vienna.
Still if Vienna gets the boot and no one says goodbye, I think Jake will realize these girls are very petty and shallow. YEAH! There must be 50 ways to boot a bimbo on the Bachelor.
Did anyone else see the preview of Jake in his flannel shirt by the fire, getting pissed and saying that he didn’t want to talk to the interviewer anymore? He was wearing the same thing last night but I never saw that scene.
Kerri Said,
All I kept thinking last night was oh Lincee they are giftwrapping blog material for you. And hide ‘n seek AND spin the bottle…really…..are we back in elementary/middle school here?? Also loved that Gia (Ally McBeal) thought they would be eating steak..since when is that a camping food?? Yeah I am just wishing for a do-over so he could go back to the first night and keep some better “ladies”
saggleo Said,
#65 – DeMo – I was just going to post about that! They never showed that clip last night and was definitely from that 2 on 2 date or whatever they call it! They are really irking me this season w/ the previews and not showing it on the show. They really owe Lincee for their viewer-ship so they better KNOCK IT OFF OR I’M GOING GIVE THEM A TALKING TO! lol
Rachel Said,
65 DeMo- I’ve been waiting for that scene and figured it was on last night’s episode, but hmmm… I wonder if it’s still upcoming.
SDF Said,
#42- Gia is NO virgin! She dated a famous NY Yankees pitcher and is half naked in Maxim!
Corrie must be the virgin.
saggleo Said,
#68 – Rachel – They showed it as part of the previews for this week’s episode. When I saw it over the weekend, I was like…GREAT…we are going to get the storming out and the rose burning all in the same episode. Sweet! But noooooo – editor teasers! They must have been taking tips from Elizabeth! Ugh
Darryl Said,
I agree that Gia is no virgin. She could keep her legs together during her date with Jake.
And side note, Alli MUST get a new thing for her hair. A butterfly clip? Really? I wear those when I’m lounging, NEVER when I’m out on a date…
Kathleen Said,
#42 – I think the voiceover was Tenley talking about her marriage… she was a virgin when she got married (so was her husband). I don’t think the virgin thing is about anyone on this show right now.
I’m just bored with this group and with Jake. The spoiler I read looks like it’s likely to happen, which makes me not care about it anymore. I’ll just enjoy Lincee’s recaps!
Kath412 Said,
Last night my husband said that Ali was getting the “cheese ass” edit this season…
Also, if anyone else watches “the girls next door”, wasn’t that the hotel they went to a few seasons a go for someone’s birthday? You don’t forget a room as pink as that….
Christi Said,
#53 re:edits…then the food was there, then it was gone, then it was there. Totally a Pretty Woman edit mistake.
Stephers Said,
How staged was the scene where Jake exits the rose ceremony and the camera man follows? Next scene: OHCH was “talking” with a staffer where Jake confronts and asks if he has to give out the last 2 roses. I thought it looked all-too phony!!!
Claiborne Said,
#75 Christi- This is sort of off topic, but what do you mean “Totally a Pretty Woman edit”? I’ve seen that movie so many times and almost always catch editing mistakes. When does it happen?
Rozie Said,
The girls on V’s bus all seemed to have a good time and there was no vibes on their bus – their conversations was about Jake but on bossy Alli’s bus all they talked about was Vienna this and Vienna that – seems like a serious case of envy to me. Also I dont think Vienna is really mean/bitchy/trouble maker ect. I just think the girl is really ignorant about how the rest of ‘poor’ America lives and that not everybody have a rich dad to run too. When (I think it was) Jessie complained about V she did not say she was mean to the other girls, she just said that they are tired of her talking about how many cars the wrecked and all the checks her dad write. Hell I wish I had a rich dad to write me some checks…!
loves waves Said,
I’m just wondering when we’re going to see the incident that Jake himself said in an interview is FAR worse than the Rozlyn/producer debacle. What, a ritual extension cutting of Vienna’s mop?
Mo Said,
The pitcher Gia dated must have been a real loser if her best date ever was with Jake, eating hot dogs and smores (AND playing spin the bottle). BTW, how come no one has mentioned that this game does not work with two people?
Mo- Gia dated Carl Pavano… He was a bust for the Yankees, had a stint with the Indians and now plays for my beloved Minnesota Twins. He has the whole tall dark and handsome thing going on, but seems like a douche. I could picture him taking girls on crappy dates.
Katie M Said,
#56 I agree. I do not think you put someone on a bike for highway driving who is an
inexperienced rider. One of the scenes with him riding off in the vineyard looked like he was going to dump it. He is a pilot. I do not know why they have chosen to keep putting him on a bike. To me it is stupid. Just get him a really nice car.
I am disappointed they did not give Jessie any airtime. She seemed like a nice girl. Which I think is the problem. I think he wants a nice Christian girl but is attracted to naughty girls. Did he really think abc was going to find him a Christian girl who is wife material? He needs to go back to the singles class at his church.
totsie Said,
This is downright painful now. jake has no chemistry with any of these girls. again, i ask ABC, where DID you find this crop? And yes, i will watch it to the bitter end. not proud of that.
BooBoo Said,
#77 Claiborne – the “Pretty Woman Edit” is referring to the ‘morning after scene’ with Julia Roberts eating pancakes in her bathrobe and talking with her mouth full. Watch the pancake in that scene….2 bites gone, next scene no bites, 2 bites, 1 bite….
Anony Said,
#84 and #77 – The pancake also changes to a croissant at one point…
Jake is FINALLY getting his man on with this crop of potential “wives”. Weed ‘um out, dude!
*Ali must feel canary yellow is her signature color
*Gia’s grammar was the worst
*Jessie was working the teal green eye shadow (Bonnie Bell days, for sure)
I honestly think Jake is above all of this in the end, unfortunately!
Is it just me, or does Jake have absolutely zero chemistry with any of these women? It all seems so forced. Even more so than usual.
jake looks like Lord Dark Helmet (aka rick moranis in Space Balls) with his motorcycle helmet.
http://urgh.files.wordpress.com/2007/04/darkhelmet.jpg
#2, it does seem like he has zero or very little chemistry with most/all of the girls but it seems like that is usually the case with most of these shows. they show very little meaningful interaction and the contestants act like they have a unique and real connection after 60 mins of chit chat over a two week period. it’s all such a joke but that’s what i find entertaining.
No Susan #2 it is not just you. He really does not seem to be into any of them. Ashleigh was too aggressive and the group that I was watching with all said she would go. Jessie was never shown and she tattled so she would go. Ella was kept for the mother story line but no chemistry so she was a goner. Katheryn not shown and no chemisty=gone. Corrie shown very little so she will undoubtably be gone soon. Gia shown a little more than Corrie, but still seems forced…Will last a little longer but just don’t see it…Really heels for camping? Tenley who talks about her divorce all the time…Not the one. Ali is shown bitching about Vienna and Jake the tattle tale doesn’t like tattle tales. There is chemistry here but he resents her about disliking Vienna and she resents him about liking Vienna…so bye bye. We are left with Vienna? There is chemisty here also, but the other girls warning him about her is starting to bug him and the lights seem to be coming on. Sadly I am thinking Jake will dump them all.
Loved that the wardrobe consultant obviously said to them, “Ladies, we want this opening sequence to look like someone opened a container of rainbow sprinkles and spewed them all over the couch. Can you help us out?” Never have I seen so many different colors of sweat outfits in one place.
Funniest moment of the night: Tenley asking Jake if he was comfortable while his head was in her lap and his nose was literally an eighth of an inch away from her boob. I half expected him to say “Mama!”
I agree that it all seems very forced. But it always does. I’m a sucker for wanting them to find love, so I will keep hoping, although it really doesn’t look likely this time.
Wow, down to 5 already, from 25! Jake seems anxious to get it over with — He sure doesn’t look like he’s having much fun. I agree he is too mature for most of the girls. Did you know OHCH is going to be on Ellen tomorrow (Wednesday)? Here’s his blog, while we wait for Lincee’s recap:
http://popwatch.ew.com/2010/01/26/chris-harrison-blogs-the-bachelor-season-14-episode-4/
Sherm, I TOTALLY noticed that about the sweat outfits. I don’t own one of those, and for a second, I thought, “Wait, did I miss something? Does EVERYONE have one of those?” I think it must have been on their packing list or something. With a checklist of colors so no duplicates.
I think my favorite part was when Gia said she was ecstatic(k)ed.
Tomorrow? *cries* Haven’t watched the episode yet (I watch it on Tuesday, because better shows come on during the same time period) but at least I’ll have plenty of time now.
When one of the girls said “Highway of Love”, was I the only person that said “there is the title of the blog tomorrow!!!!!!!”
Between Gia’s glow-in-the-dark cherry red lipstick and her freaking out about raccoons (I know she’s from NY, but c’mon) she needs to go (although in the previews for next week Jake tells her/us he’s really falling for her.) The conversations are just painful to listen to. Did anyone else hear the crickets chirping? And my take on the sweat outfits is that they all had a similar design, just in different colors – maybe there’s an official Bachelor one? Oooo, where can I buy it?!! (No way….)
Like a bad accident, I just can’t stop watching this….
Lincee,
Don’t forget to add to your to-do list:
-get new Lee Press-on Nails (like the ones Ella so clearly needs- hers were YELLOWING!)
-purchase 80′s make-up and cocktail dress (thanks for that Jessy, we needed a laugh)
Jake has no chemistry with these chicks – maybe he shouldn’t have kept all the dummies and let the smart gals go on the first night? Or MAYBE he should be on the Bachelorette instead, know what I am saying? Of any of them, he seems to have the most chemistry with Gia though…
Ashleigh cocked her head to the side to much and said, “What’s up?” way to much – he just had nothing to say to her, bless her heart.
Why was Jessie even still on the show? I never even talks to her – it was like he just overlooked her.
Vienna will now always be referred to by me as “The Sausage.” I didn’t see how she was so mean and nasty in prior weeks – I just thought she was dumb. But this week, she was EXTRA dumb – seriously wanted to punch her the face. Glad Jessie told him that she was a spoiled little daddy’s girl. I think the producers made Jake keep her.
And yeah, I thought he was a pilot not a Harley Davidson representative (not the baddest bike on the block either, my friend.) I am waiting for them to play some “Life in the Fastlane” except Jake is wallpaper to me…….snorrrrrrrrrrrrrrre. I mean there is NOTHING funny about this guy AT ALL – I could never be with a guy who can’t make me laugh. Luckily my man is a hoot. Bring in the recap…..
funny husband comment…”whoa, they are NOT going to let those girls drive the buses are they!?!?”
also, I guess someone needs to explain to Gia that although Jake wants kids, he doesn’t want to start with full grown 23 yr olds. Stop climbing the man like a 2 year old child! that REALLY bugged me.
Ali- what a snot blossom! “I call shot gun” “dibs on 1st shower” “if Vienna doesn’t go, Jake is going to get a talk from me” bossy bossy
and doesn’t it seem like she is manipulating the other girls into doing her dirty work? sending them in to talk to Jake about how awful V is & getting themselves sent home in the process? brilliant, actually!
So who invited Brenda Walsh to the rose ceremony? Oh wait, that was Jessie. (I swear I wore that exact same outfit, dress/hose/eyeshadow, to the Homecoming Dance ’94
OMGia, did she really use the word “broughten”, as in “so glad he’s broughten me here”? I seriously thought I heard that. She’s on my last nerve–from those lips to the Flashdance off-the-shoulder-too-long sleeves to the stiletto Harley ride (did anyone notice that she ditched the heels for vineyard hide & seek?)
And how about Ashleigh’s business sprawled out all over the sofa when she was desperately trying to connect with The Bore? I hope that was some kind of “hot pants” outfit? Yikes.
Do 31 yr. old dudes REALLY use the word “refreshing” to describe a girl? He seems more like a 50 yr. old politician.
“On The Wings of Love” piano version? Yes, please! That made my night!
As for the sweats, I think they were donated by Victoria Secret, like those boy/girl silhouette hats and tanks from Jason’s season. That way, the girls have something cute and technicolor to wear around the mansion and VS gets some on-air time.
I’m glad Jake finally gave OHCH a rose, because their bromance seems like it is straight out of a fairy tale.
Oh, and note to ABC stylist: We get it, Ali is the natural beauty, but you might suggest she brush her hair every once in a while.
Oh, and I loved Jessie’s rose ceremony look: “I’m wearing green jewelry, so I need green make up!”
#18, mothercita: Thank you!! I agree completely. Where would she be without her hair clip?
This is what happens when you weed out the first 10-15 based on looks alone. Sure you don’t have a lot of time to figure out who’s got a brain…but that’s what a resume is for. I’d be collecting them.
If I were to ever go on this show…and obviously I won’t…assuming my intent was to find “the one” as opposed to just making out with a bunch of hot chicks, I’d demand more time with the first 25. I’d want an actual date/alone time with each one, hour minimum. It could be at McDonalds for all I care. But I’d need to know the girl can hold a fricken conversation.
Jake may pick one, I’m sure as the final episode nears it will “all become clear” and he’ll know “exactly what to do”…but it won’t last.
My friends and I missed the first twenty minutes or so and therefore missed Gia’s date. Lincee, you better do justice to what really happened!
Ugh… this show is getting worse and worse… Ali dissing V all the time..can she say ANYTHING nice? I liked Gia a lot last night. Seems very sweet, just too New York for our Texas boy. Afraid of raccoons?? really? They were too stinkin cute!!! And I’m glad Jake told V to tone it down. It sounded like the teacher telling a student to play nice. I don’t think he ends up with any of these “ladies”.
Agree with those who think this all seems forced. I’ve thought Jake was a phony from the get go. I don’t buy his act at all. The more I watch, the more I’m convinced he is gay. He just doesn’t have that natural ease with the women. Something’s definitely off.
OMG, I was so embarrassed for Ashleigh. Not a flattering angle, hon.
And I think Gia is a sweet girl, but her laugh made me want to throw my TV out the window. So annoying!
I LOL’d at the instrumental “Wings of Love” and at them trying to front like that was really Jake riding that motorcycle down the highway. Please.
sf_chris – you are totally right, I thought the same thing about Jake looking like Rick Moranis is Space Balls with that ginormous helmet. What is up with that?
Jake is a bore – no chemistry with any of the gals. He must have kept Vienna because he had to. I think he is so on to her – shoot, how could he not be with every one of the girls warning him.
Why did Ashley feel she had to throw herself all over Jake. I guess because they had absolutely nothing to talk about. There was a little too much awkward silence. How many times were they going to say “Soooo, how are you” to each other.
And yes – Ali is getting a little too bratty and bossy.
How many weeks is this season supposed to last? Because Jake sure is getting rid of them fast. They’ll probably throw a couple of weeks of “The Bachelor Tells All” episodes. And, of course our seasonal update on Ryan and Krista.
Random thought: could it be that there is appeal to having a rich father-in-law? since Jake was the king of ‘throw he-shall-not-be-named’ under the bus last season with Jillian (and he was right), it’s the only conclusion I can draw. If anyone should be sensitive to all the girls warning him about Vienna (and take it to heart) – it’s Jake. So, I’ve decided that Jake is a male gold digger and likes the idea of potentially marrying into a wealthy family. While I haven’t seen anything about Vienna that would draw all the ‘hate’ from the other girls – bottom line: she’s 23, very immature, and yes – seems to be daddy’s little spoiled rich girl. Honestly, wish I had rich daddy as well, but not to be….
That’s my story – and I’m sticking to it!
PS – I like the comment about the Bromance. Maybe you are right Anastasia Beaverhousen – Maybe Jake is gay.
I felt Jessie’s rose ceremony outfit was a little whorish. And also total kiss of death when she was talking to Jake about Vienna Sausage. I knew she was going home because we hadn’t seen her all season and suddenly she was talking.
So glad to be rid of Ashleigh. I just straight up didn’t like her. I thought it was hysterical how she said something about some of the girls being more affectionate than others and she’d never do that because it looked desperate. Then in the next scene she’s draped all over Jake!
Does anyone else miss Michelle? Girlfriend was cra-zzzay but so entertaining.
Also. Jessie equals Bump-It.
This rose shall not be given out on the “two-on-one” date… no, no….it shall be… BURNED! I thought that was hilarious when Jake slowly walks up to the fire and tosses the rose in. He definitely has a flare for drama that one! He is always pausing and wincing before he speaks, or before he before he tosses an ABC supermarket rose into flames!
I’m currently watching it online – first thoughts – nice shaving over a trash can, manly man. Also, I would totally be keeping Miss Gia around ’til the over night dates. I’m a girl, but she is HOT. .
Capri, in the Entertainment Weekly recap, the writer called that “The Irony Edit.” I thought that was so funny!
I’m standing behind Jake. I think he’s wholesome, not gay. Being careful. Heart is involved. This is harder than he thought and the crop of girls left is not that great. He’s rearranging deck chairs on the Titanic.
Ella Southern Mumma has got to be about 40. Seriously. 29? Yeah, right. If she is, so am I!
Did Catherine slit her own throat when she was whiney to Jake about being ignored on the duo date?
Ali is definitely the ringleader, bossy flossy. Cute, but waaaaaaay too controlling. Queen of snark.
If Vienna Sausage’s sugardaddy has so much jack, why didn’t he get her eyes fixed as a baby?
Gia needs to use a mirror when applying color to the joker lips. And you are a woman, not a monkey. Stand on your own two feet.
Jessie’s eyeshadow. Ha HA HA. Emerald Oz. HA HA HA Nuff said. Liked the black dress tho, and she does have a smoking body if I do say so as a fellow female.
Ashleigh also seems older than her “published age” and should have kept her cards a little closer to home during the one on one time. I don’t think Jake wanted a lap dance from her just yet.
Tenley has to rid herself of the terrible Marcia brady hair and get out of the past. She’s a beautiful girl, even if her voice is a bit annoying.
Corrie is beautiful and seems the most well-rounded to me. BUT her comedy act is still in my brain like a sliver. She lost points with me being so snotty, even if Vienna Sausage had it coming.
Did anyone else notice that Gia and Jake had no less than THREE bottles of wine?!?! Someone’s going to be nursing a massive hangover in the morning…
I have resigned myself to the fact that Jake’s over-reaching douche-tastic-ness is going to force him to pick Vienna in the end. It’s like watching hairs circle the tub drain. The show is sinking like the Titanic, and Capt. Vienna is at the helm.
SOS!
And yes, “douche-tastic-ness ” is in the dictionary. There is a picture of Jake with his helmet and sunglasses on next to the definition.
I just thought of something.Vienna is not getting the evil “He who shall not be named” edit. Meaning, maybe the producers are purposely not showing us stuff so that we don’t totally hate Vienna. And the only reason I can think why they would do that is because she makes it to the end.
With Wes, they knew he wasn’t going to make it, and it was more drama to make us all really hate him. You know what I mean?
Thoughts?
I like that Jake also gave us the disclaimer after the 2 on 1 date “This is the first of many decisions that I’m going to make that no one is going to understand.” Apparently we’re in for more WTF moments!
“I had sand in every crevice of my body”. TMI, Ashleigh, TMI.
Jake is growing on me. Like a mold.
#38 – As much as I don’t want to admit it, I think you’re right. And that kills me! But what’s weird is how they’ll try in the coming weeks to spin it. Because right now, they have no drama. The only drama is how much the other women hate Vienna. But what are they going to do when it’s time to make “America fall in love” with her? We don’t like her for most reasons, and also by proxy because that’s what we’re fed every week: “Vienna is awful, she’s the worst, yuck.”
So how in the world are the producers going to make us like and care for her in the end? Or will it be a case of everyone screaming “NO!!!” at the end?
i hope he picks no one. Jake is 31. Gia is 26. Tenley and Ali are 25. Corrie and Vienna are 23.
Even putting ages aside, they are all way too young….
Does anyone else remember hearing a preview in the beginning of the season with a voiceover of someone saying that she’s not ashamed of being a virgin, but that it’s not really anyone’s business? Who do you think it is? Tenley and Vienna were married… Ali lived with a bf i think… that leaves Gia and Corrie…
Hey all! I agree with Yup (#34) that Jake is just wholesome, not gay. He seems utterly deflated now. Maybe the giant helmet is squeezing his brain. His problem is that he is now getting TOO picky. He is dumping them so fast this show is going to be over in 2 weeks cause no one will be left. Jake and Chris Harrison will be standing at the rose ceremony listening to the grasshoppers chirp going HELLOOOO?
It wouldn’t surprise me when Ali is named the next reject who becomes the Bachelorette (although she is getting a horrible edit). Maybe she hasn’t been playing nice with the producers?
Cringe worthy indeed when Kathryn and Jake had their one on one and all he could talk about were her eyes……NO CONNECTION WHAT-SO-EVER as with Ella, Jessie, Ashliegh and even Corrie.
This season especially, but the girls are falling in love with the process. Sadly, Jake will not acquire the co-pilot he is looking for. Waa-Waa!
Jake: “Chris Harrison, will you accept this rose? You’re the only one here and I don’t find Gary the camera guy attractive.”
In Gia’s defense, raccoons are actually really mean, despite how cute they are! But the funny part was when she thought it was a skunk – hahahahaha! I guess it’s all the same to a New Yorker
Something about Gia I just can’t stand… the lips? the lisp? the atrocious grammar? the babytalk? the wardrobe? the way she pulls all of her hair around to the front of her shoulders to maximize volume?
She seems nice enough, but — ick!
Ali hasn’t totally lost me yet — but she’s getting there… still, she’s the best one left… and that’s hard for me to say, because I HATE yellow – and that seems to be the dominant color in her wardrobe. I mean, really, how many yellow dresses can one woman have?
Still impressed with Jake’s ever-strengthening backbone (though, man, he’s clearing out the house quickly!). I’m guessing he won’t end up with anyone in this batch – he’ll have to settle for hooking up with a reject bachelorette from a previous season! But not on The Bachelor Pad – even with his no-more-mister-nice-guy MO, I’m thinking he’d get eaten alive in that house!
i seriously screamed and hid behind my hand during ashleigh’s one on one time. holy awkward.
i’m surprised how much i liked gia on their date. she is pretty city-girl for him but she might be the most genuine of them left. well, and corrie but they have no spark.
ali is miss bossy, but i agree with whomever said she’ll be the next bach-ette.
my theory is that he didnt want to give roses to vienna, ashleigh OR jessie but abc was like, whoa buddy. keep her for good tv then, thanks. so, heres vienna to stay. bleh.
he picks no one, i can feel it.
The most interesting women were shown the door in the first couple of episodes, and now it’s just Ali and the Airheads. OHCH has mentioned that Jake and motorcycles weren’t a natural match, and poor guy looks like a dork in his huge helmet, riding as gingerly as if he’s on ice. It looks more like a Triumph than a Harley.
My favorite cringe-inducing moment of the night was when Ashleigh apparently thought that Jake asking, “So, what else?” meant that he wanted her to hike her leg over his lap and show her hoo-ha to all of America.
I think #38 has a good theory…..hate the results, but I agree with the thinking.
#49 – Alan…It is a Triumph. On Jake’s blog last week he said it was a 2007 Triumph Bonneville. You are good dude!!!
I don’t like any of the women left for Jake and I didn’t even see his date with Gia. Ali dissing Vienna (and yeah it could be overused in editing and who knows if she’s saying that much, but she had to say it in the first place for them to use it)…doesn’t make her such great wife material to me. It’s just showing she’s too young. If you are all about ready to be married and all this and that junk…then worry about yourself and be a WOMAN and work on your “connection” with Jake and leave the other chicks out of it. And her “he’s going to get a talking to”…nice way to show a man what kind of marriage he’ll be getting with you if things don’t go your way. Sure fire way to send yourself home! buh-bye
They may not be showing all of what the Vienna hate is about, and I’m sure it’s that she’s just immature and spoiled and they can’t stand that. Etiher way it’s harmless…ignore her and she’ll go away or tone it down. But again…worry about your own backyard.
I knew when he came back in he was going to pick Vienna. I think he’s partly doing it to test the ones left. LOL I would.
I tell ya, I gotta give Jake his props! He’s cutting them out just as fast as I would if I wasn’t feeling it! Why waste time? He may be kind of cheesy but he seems like a genuinely nice, stand up man. Nothing wrong with that. I’m sure he has his faults, but who doesn’t.
Lincee I know this is going to be a comedic gold performance of a blog from you once again.
First… did anyone else notice the bad edits with Kathryn? Her hair was out of place, then it wasn’t… then it was again? Bad edits people!
I just feel like this is all going to end badly…. either with Vienna (this reminds me of the British guy season where he ended up with Shayne Lamas) but maybe they are doing that so that Jake can appear on the new reject Summer Bachelor/Bachelorette show. Makes for a great tease! He picks no one… he’s still searching… and look, his search brought him back for the big reunion show!
And of course… I am eagerly awaiting that show! Can’t wait!
Also can’t wait for this week’s recap. Lord knows they gave you lots to work with.
i think he must see something in vienna that he really likes… not only for keeping her, but for setting her straight on how she’s bringing the drama on herself and that she should tone it down. i don’t like her so much for him anymore (she’s just so YOUNG), but you gotta have a pretty good vibe i think to be that honest with someone (rather than just cut her loose).
ali’s comments at the rose ceremony were unnecessary and mean. she said them enough under her breath so jake couldn’t hear, but loud enough for vienna to hear. that seals the deal on my dislike of ali.
i’m now team jake-dumps-them-all-and-goes-home-to-find-an-age-appropriate-woman-with-a-real-job.
Wow- Jake is the man. Cutting them as quickly as he can. Personally, I would too. He has a group of loser chicks…seriously.
Gia- I think she used to have a stuttering problem or some other kind of speech disorder. I think that’s why they way she articulates sounds funny. She’s trying to overcompensate for it. But her laugh is annoying, but if Jake likes the squealy, fake cutesy girl type (well he did like Jillian!), then Gia seems perfect.
Ali- she’s one nasty girl. Sorry, I know lots like her, but mean edit or not, she’s saying and doing all those things. You have to give them material. I don’t understand her little rant at the rose ceremony over Vienna. If she really feels that way, speak up and let Jake now. Just don’t go on and on under your breath to poor little Tenley who Ali knows will just sit and listen. I totally agree that she’s controlling these girls and convincing them to do her dirty work.
Vienna- she is annoying. Poor Jake…
Ashleigh- ‘m glad she’s gone. I didn’t like her vibe. Plus she looked like a fool during her one-on-one time.
Jake is ending this show empty handed. No way does he pick these girls. He almost looks like he wants to wrap it up and go home. He’s not even having fun just making out with them (which I have to give him props for being in the game for more than just some booty.)
Oh and did anyone else think that all those motorcycle rides weren’t really Jake? My hubby was the one that said “that dude on the bike doesn’t even look like Jake.” Naturally we had to rewind and pause a few times, but whoever was on that bike was short and stubby and older looking.
#38 BA – Well if they didn’t want us to hate Vienna, they shouldn’t have shown her on the first episode having lunch with her dog, telling us about her numerous accidents, rich daddy and mani/pedi’s with her dog. Coupled with the fact that they constantly show how disliked she is by ALL the other girls…what are we to think? I think she is spoiled, snotty, immature and very uncertain as to what she wants out of life…based on what they have shown
Did anyone else die laughing at Tenley’s comment Ella and Katheryn before their 2-on-1 date?? I was cracking up…”I mean, you have a 50/50 chance of leaving, right? hehehehe…oh, sorry!” Hilarious…she is my new fave now that Ali has gone all crazy over Vienna. I can understand not liking someone, but she is completely obsessed over it! Get over it already. Jake must like something about her. That does not mean that you and Vienna are anything alike! And who in the world told Ali that yellow is her color? I am bored with the yellow already.
Jessie looked like a hooker at the rose ceremony.
Poor Ashleigh looked so desperate as she laid draped all over him saying “I’m not going to make myself look despearate.” Was she drunk??
And I liked Gia last night although I could have done without Jake carrying through the vineyard like a child.
Was it just me or was the Captain hot?
Something tells me she is probably only interested in grownups.
hahah. i also hear jake likes dirty girls look at this article for some other great one-liners. thanks, bachelor, for all this great entertainment!!!
http://www.tonic.com/column/reality-round-up/bachelor-episode-four-one-liners/
Katherine? I seriously didn’t know this chick was on the show until last night. Still didn’t remember her name but saw someone else mentioned it. I still haven’t figured out the vienna thing. Is she really horrible and they are just editing it out? Or (after teaching jr. high girls) Have the cool girls decided to hate her and make sure everyone else does too?
#54 I’m totally on Team Jake pulls a Womack!
OMG, I almost peed my pants when they showed the racoons stalking the girls at the end of the show. Great job ABC cameraman. You deserve the Emmy!
57- Tracy- I totally cracked up at that line too. Tenley seems awfully cute. I just wish she was a little more ready to move on from her previous relationship. It seems like she’s still nursing the wounds.
It is looking like Vienna will end up in F2. However, I also believe that he goes home with the problem in hand. I don’t think he is that attracted to any of the girls. The thing that blows this out of the water is the clip where Vienna goes into her hotel room. This act of desparation will doom her. I think the pressure from Ali is getting to Vienna.
Still if Vienna gets the boot and no one says goodbye, I think Jake will realize these girls are very petty and shallow. YEAH! There must be 50 ways to boot a bimbo on the Bachelor.
Did anyone else see the preview of Jake in his flannel shirt by the fire, getting pissed and saying that he didn’t want to talk to the interviewer anymore? He was wearing the same thing last night but I never saw that scene.
All I kept thinking last night was oh Lincee they are giftwrapping blog material for you. And hide ‘n seek AND spin the bottle…really…..are we back in elementary/middle school here?? Also loved that Gia (Ally McBeal) thought they would be eating steak..since when is that a camping food?? Yeah I am just wishing for a do-over so he could go back to the first night and keep some better “ladies”
#65 – DeMo – I was just going to post about that! They never showed that clip last night and was definitely from that 2 on 2 date or whatever they call it! They are really irking me this season w/ the previews and not showing it on the show. They really owe Lincee for their viewer-ship so they better KNOCK IT OFF OR I’M GOING GIVE THEM A TALKING TO! lol
65 DeMo- I’ve been waiting for that scene and figured it was on last night’s episode, but hmmm… I wonder if it’s still upcoming.
#42- Gia is NO virgin! She dated a famous NY Yankees pitcher and is half naked in Maxim!
Corrie must be the virgin.
#68 – Rachel – They showed it as part of the previews for this week’s episode. When I saw it over the weekend, I was like…GREAT…we are going to get the storming out and the rose burning all in the same episode. Sweet! But noooooo – editor teasers! They must have been taking tips from Elizabeth! Ugh
I agree that Gia is no virgin. She could keep her legs together during her date with Jake.
@saggleo – LOL! No kidding.
And side note, Alli MUST get a new thing for her hair. A butterfly clip? Really? I wear those when I’m lounging, NEVER when I’m out on a date…
#42 – I think the voiceover was Tenley talking about her marriage… she was a virgin when she got married (so was her husband). I don’t think the virgin thing is about anyone on this show right now.
I’m just bored with this group and with Jake. The spoiler I read looks like it’s likely to happen, which makes me not care about it anymore. I’ll just enjoy Lincee’s recaps!
Last night my husband said that Ali was getting the “cheese ass” edit this season…
Also, if anyone else watches “the girls next door”, wasn’t that the hotel they went to a few seasons a go for someone’s birthday? You don’t forget a room as pink as that….
#53 re:edits…then the food was there, then it was gone, then it was there. Totally a Pretty Woman edit mistake.
How staged was the scene where Jake exits the rose ceremony and the camera man follows? Next scene: OHCH was “talking” with a staffer where Jake confronts and asks if he has to give out the last 2 roses. I thought it looked all-too phony!!!
#75 Christi- This is sort of off topic, but what do you mean “Totally a Pretty Woman edit”? I’ve seen that movie so many times and almost always catch editing mistakes. When does it happen?
The girls on V’s bus all seemed to have a good time and there was no vibes on their bus – their conversations was about Jake but on bossy Alli’s bus all they talked about was Vienna this and Vienna that – seems like a serious case of envy to me. Also I dont think Vienna is really mean/bitchy/trouble maker ect. I just think the girl is really ignorant about how the rest of ‘poor’ America lives and that not everybody have a rich dad to run too. When (I think it was) Jessie complained about V she did not say she was mean to the other girls, she just said that they are tired of her talking about how many cars the wrecked and all the checks her dad write. Hell I wish I had a rich dad to write me some checks…!
I’m just wondering when we’re going to see the incident that Jake himself said in an interview is FAR worse than the Rozlyn/producer debacle. What, a ritual extension cutting of Vienna’s mop?
The pitcher Gia dated must have been a real loser if her best date ever was with Jake, eating hot dogs and smores (AND playing spin the bottle). BTW, how come no one has mentioned that this game does not work with two people?
Mo- Gia dated Carl Pavano… He was a bust for the Yankees, had a stint with the Indians and now plays for my beloved Minnesota Twins. He has the whole tall dark and handsome thing going on, but seems like a douche. I could picture him taking girls on crappy dates.
#56 I agree. I do not think you put someone on a bike for highway driving who is an
inexperienced rider. One of the scenes with him riding off in the vineyard looked like he was going to dump it. He is a pilot. I do not know why they have chosen to keep putting him on a bike. To me it is stupid. Just get him a really nice car.
I am disappointed they did not give Jessie any airtime. She seemed like a nice girl. Which I think is the problem. I think he wants a nice Christian girl but is attracted to naughty girls. Did he really think abc was going to find him a Christian girl who is wife material? He needs to go back to the singles class at his church.
This is downright painful now. jake has no chemistry with any of these girls. again, i ask ABC, where DID you find this crop? And yes, i will watch it to the bitter end. not proud of that.
#77 Claiborne – the “Pretty Woman Edit” is referring to the ‘morning after scene’ with Julia Roberts eating pancakes in her bathrobe and talking with her mouth full. Watch the pancake in that scene….2 bites gone, next scene no bites, 2 bites, 1 bite….
#84 and #77 – The pancake also changes to a croissant at one point…
