Bachelorette Emily Recap: Week 7
Confession: I went in to last night’s episode thinking it would be totally boring now that Ryan’s white tank top would no longer be making an appearance on the show. Emily has relatively normal suitors left. How can they make the next two hours remotely entertaining?
Why you introduce false drama of course! Between the big reveal of Cassie the Producer, Sean running through the streets of Prague “searching” for Emily and the vein in Contestant Chris’ forehead that was about to pop, I actually experienced many moments rising from my chair in victory, hiding behind my couch cushion in sympathetic embarrassment and sending a strongly worded letter to the ABC producers campaigning that at least one episode per season should be dedicated to shooting the entire thing with marionettes.
In conclusion, I was pleasantly surprised.
Head over to Huffington Post (CLICK HERE) to read my mini recap. Please note that my submitted title was “Czech Mate” which makes the body of the post ridiculously creative. Pay no attention to the fact that it was re-named the ever-more-inspired “Emily Goes To Prague.”
The recap will be up later today. Happy reading!
Lincee – I hope you caught OHCH lurking in the background during Sean and Emily’s “impromptu” date in the pub (after he found her in the streets). Go back and watch it…if you look through the window that is behind Sean and Emily, you can see a guy outside the pub and I really think it was OHCH!
No doubt the marionettes were the highlight of the whole two hours! Was he given lessons in puppeteering before that date???
Although Sean screaming down the streets was pretty entertaining……..
Loved your comparison with the game of chess. Brilliant! I agree that the date with Jef was adorable. Team OFJ!
“Do you think we could . . . get a dog together? This has to be one of the most adorable lines uttered in the history of this show. One F FTW!
Hey! I love one F Jef. But is there anyone else who is starting to suspect he might be a really good actor with a good screen-writing buddy. I mean, I would pay to watch scenes with him in a romantic comedy, and I’m sure someone in Hollywood is noticing that too. His lines are so great and he delivers them so well. And maybe I’m too cynical in my old age. I so want to believe that’s really him though. And if it is, I kinda think he’s too good for Emily, but she too seems to develop more of a personality around him.
And the other thing about one F. He asks actual questions you should ask if you are thinking about proposing. And just once on this show I’d like someone to ask about religious beliefs. That’s a huge deal, especially if you are raising children together.
I thought that One F Jef’s date with Emily was great. The “puppet show” was so adorable. It was hands down the best part of the night. I wasn’t embarrassed for either of them.
I might be alone on this, but I though that Arie executed the “kiss up against a wall” move way better than Sean did.
but I though that Arie executed the “kiss up against a wall” move way better than Sean did.
AGREED !! Arie is just IT for me ! Something about him I find incredibly sexy as hell!! Sean looked like he was going to hump her right there on the street !!!
OMG – does anyone remember the horrific wine glasses that looked like Mason Jars on one of Ben F’s hometown dates last season? I just saw an ad fo them at a local outdoor store – they are called Redneck Wine Glasses!!!!!!!
I would have never thought this on day one, but One F is just great. I loved them in the puppet shop – and I hate puppets. That was a pretty great moonwalk. Jef seems so natural, and it feels like they are progressing like normal couples do, not like couples think they have to for the show.
I’m still Team Sean, but I wouldn’t mind One F either. I do not see what Emily (and so many of you!) see in Arie! He just does not do it for me.
I loved loved loved the date with One F. I thought “Finally! A date I can watch and not get embarrassed for them” I did a bit of googling and found out about his work. Very cool..providing clean drinking water for developing countries. And you can buy a teamjef shirt on the website!!! peoplewater.com
There’s just something about Ari that doesn’t sit well with me but I can’t put my finger on it.
Jef is awesome. I like him more with each show. I think he is a definite contender…probably will be one of the last two.
Chris is definitely the most jittery contestant I ever saw on this show. I thought he was about to literally explode during the rose ceremony!
I think Sean is great but I’m on the fence whether his searching for her yelling her name was romantic or a stalker-like. I couldn’t help but think of Brando A Streetcar Named Desire, yelling “STEEEELLLLLA!!!”
Poor delusional John. I don’t understand how he thought he was a shoe-in for the rose. And I was embarrassed for Doug. He was clueless as well.
Arie gets me all hot – there is just something about him, and he and Emily have the best physical chemistry by far.
Sean is a sweet guy, easy on the eyes, great “on paper” but I just find him kind of boring. I don’t see it with them.
I have to admit, that One F has totally grown on me. I’m still not attracted to him, but he seems like he has the best long-term potential out of anyone. What was that he said to her when they were laying on the floor — something like “I’m going to date you so hard and then marry the #$%& out of you!” WTF? I was cracking up sooo hard. I think he’s the type of guy who would keep you laughing and would be great with kids.
Chris has GOT to go. I would have totally sent him home before Wolf-boy – though he had to go too.
Doug… well, bless his heart. That’s all I’ve got.
If only she could morph them together – Arie’s sexiness, Sean’s looks and physique and Jef’s wit and charm.
That would be one smokin’ hot combination!!
Jef for the win! He’s hysterical and so interesting. I see him being a guy you can grow old with- loyal, funny and something beyond just sex appeal. Not to mention how sweet he was remembering little Ricki.
Doug was hysterical with that impromtu, soooo poorly timed kiss. How did he get a girl pregnant? He doesn’t seem to understand how romancing a woman works….
