"Bachelor Ben 2nd episode" |
I hope in time Jenna sees tonight's elimination as the act of mercy that it really was. An inarticulate, awkward, emotionally damaged woman like Jenna simply cannot compete in a sea of overaggressive, hypercompetitive, heartless b1tches, and it was an act of mercy by Ben to get her out of that house and away from the merciess and heartless cattiness that these witches practice. Jenna needs to find herself a gentle man with a kind heart to love her, not compete with a squadron of backstabbers in a public forum.

Jenna has appeared drunk in both episodes. I don't think she is very articulate to begin with. But add alcohol and she becomes completely crazy. Then she threw the blanket on the lantern and Ben had to rescue it from starting on fire.

I forget which girl it was, but on one of them last night the makeup was so obvious it was ridiculous, and I was watching on a 31 year old non-HD TV. I can only imagine how bad that must have looked in HD.

Because when your choices are either one of the uberbitches chosen for faux drama max-out (and no romance) or the simple affection of your dog, bestiality starts to sound like the sane option?

I don't think the horrible track record is deliberately enforced. I just think they don't give a $hit about it. All they give a $hit about is ratings, ratings, ratings, and enough viewers are starting to see through the bull$hit that their precious ratings are starting to take a hit.

I'll rephrase: an ugly breakup gets more tabloid headlines than a happy ending, and as long as that's the forever-case, the former steadily becomes what the show is aiming for. Plenty of viewers watch this thing in the hopes of seeing Tru Luv bloom, but some of those are starting to figure out that, as noted, all the producers want is Sharpened Claws Out. And as they finally spot the puppeteer's strings and realize they've been manipulated all along -- they leave.

It might just be that many female viewers aren't into Ben. If they had gotten a really hot guy with a hot job and lots of money...then the female viewership would be up. On the flip side, I bet the male viewership is up for this season.

I'ts just my opinion, but I think Courtney is pretty hot and Jenna would be too if you could look past the hysterics.... It's just that Courtney behaves pretty badly...so you're right that Ben is thinking with little Ben. If he wasn't the Bachelor, I don't think most of these girls would be looking at him. They seem to be more attractive than him physically.

33. "RE: Bachelor Ben 2nd episode" |
Hi, I live in Sonoma! This is the first time I watched the Bachelor; I just was curious to see how they presented the town and who I might know in the cameos. They basically filmed in the middle of the night, AND shut down the square for even the few cars that might have come through. I could tell by the way things looked that it had to be past midnight, and a friend of mine works at the restaurant they ate at. She left at 11 pm and they hadn't even start filming there yet, and then spent hours to get the short bit they showed. So romantic, yes? When she left, she had to wait in her parked car before she could go because that is when they were walking down the street with the baton, toward the restaurant. No one was allowed to drive in or out during that bit. Don't know what was going on with all the cop cars, but the police station is right up around the corner from where they were eating. Someone must have had an expired plate. And yeah, it's great place to live. Not a bustling city by any means, but the square is always busy during the evenings. After midnight, not so much. >Does Sonoma just die at night? > There was nobody around. > It was like a >ghost town with no other >people on the street or >in the shop except the >planted twosome that had to >rush up to Ben.

27. "Blakeley." |
Now that I've finally watched the rest of the episode, I've got Blakeley figured out. And oddly enough, I feel sorry for her.She's 34, surely one of the oldest women in the cast, and competing against equally attractive women who are up to a decade younger than her. Her job is listed as "VIP Cocktail Waitress", which is a career track to nowhere and doesn't stack up against the PhD students, accountants, etc., also in the cast. She probably feels like a loser at love, and compared to the younger women, her biological clock is also ticking. She desperately wants something better. While this doesn't condone her boorish interruptions of other women trying to have private time with Ben, it does highlight her insecurity, which we saw firsthand when Ben found her curled up in a ball in the luggage room. She's aggressively going after what she wants, but she doesn't really know how to do it effectively. Despite the edit she's been getting, I'm rooting for Blakeley. *dons flame-retardant suit*
