I figured I'd get this started. I'll be watching a bit as there isn't much else on and I want to see if the "I'm not crying wolf this time" wolf-crier producer guy really means it this time.

I won't be seg capping, so if anyone wants to take that on that would be great, or we can just have random comments here.

I'm recording it and will be joining it already-in-progress. I haven't really been watching this season but I have a bit of a taste for schadenfreude this evening and this show tends to deliver on the misery.

As I'm on the wrong time zone... I'm waiting to see something juicy...
"RE: Bachelor Finale 3/2 ECST"
Posted by Snidget on 03-02-09 at 09:24 PM
Girls meet the kid on dates and his family.
Melissa's family agrees to a phone call.
Final dates with both girls.
He loves both of them
They both love him
Deanna shows up an says she should have chosen him and then gives him some advice about how to make his choice.

Not much juicy yet, but lots of promises of drama during the after the rose closed set show.

Molly is Passion
Melissa is Love

He has picked out a ring and he says he made a decision and being in love with two women svcks. It is supposed to be happy but he feels horrible.

Well of course he is in love with two women. It's Bachelor Love, which is like Monopoly Money in that it has no actual value outside the game.

"Rejection"
Posted by Snidget on 03-02-09 at 09:44 PM
He says goodbye to Molly.

Only reason is he is in love with someone else. She thinks he made a big mistake.

"RE: Rejection"
Posted by Snidget on 03-02-09 at 09:46 PM
He walks her out
She begs
He says it was real and puts her in the limo to go away.

We have a crying on the balcony scene after he sends Molly away.

Posted by TVFreak on 03-02-09 at 09:54 PM
Sobbing, blubbering mess. If you're that conflicted, why propose, or choose one over the other? Oh yeah, I forgot, it's called DRAMA!
"RE: Rejection"
Posted by martinm017 on 03-02-09 at 11:31 PM
he;s a jackas*.....Melissa asked him to tell her "what is the real reason?"....my guess is he wanted her to dress in schoolgirl outfits or spank him with a a waffle iron....something we are missing!
"RE: Rejection"
Posted by MSLSMO on 03-03-09 at 11:08 PM
I agree it seems as if something was left out as to what happened. She asked him if he had been talking to Molly. She didn't seem very convinced by his answer and neither was I. She seemed very angry and I have a feeling she suspected he was not being honest with her. What a jerk!
"Girl #2"
Posted by Snidget on 03-02-09 at 09:59 PM
Putting the ring on her finger will feel amazing and I will be so happy...

So lets see what happens with miss shows she loves and cares and needs me.

He came to look for someone just like her. Wanted to tell you for a long time I am completely in love with you.

Down on one knee. I love you, will you make me the happiest man?

he needs one second to squee and then he asks her to marry him and she says yes.

Melissa and Jason and Molly will all talk.

Jason alone, first.

We aren't right for each other.

Without the show stuff it just isn't the same chemistry and it breaks his heart.

She knows things feel completely different for him.

He keeps thinking about Molly and has feeling for her.

"So tonight he is"
Posted by Snidget on 03-02-09 at 10:08 PM
going to break up with Melissa and ask Molly what if. or at least that is his plan.

He is expecting a lot of anger coming his way tonight.

I said the exact same thing about Jason approx. 10 seconds before she did....lol.

I read the RealitySteve spoilers with a grain of salt; however, after watching tonight...

Bachelor PTB are scum. Whether they set this up from the beginning, I'm not so sure. But they obviously set Melissa up at the end and made her go through that on camera, even w/o an audience, it was messed up!!!

Chris thinks that things are getting too emotional (because bionic TV hosts rarely feel emotion) so it's time for a break.

Posted by profesora_toro4 on 03-02-09 at 10:29 PM
Does this feel a bit contrived to anyone else? Jason doesn't know what the heck he wants. If I was Molly I would be leaving the country.
"RE: Batchelor Finale 3/2 ECST"

Contrived? <insert snarky sarcasm here> This is reality TV, nothing could possibly be contrived.
"RE: Batchelor Finale 3/2 ECST"

Yes, but this is just over the top and Chris Harrison insists they had nothing to do with this!!

Posted by citywitch on 03-03-09 at 07:47 AM
ugh...most.contrived.ever
I haven't watched most seasons of bach/bachette (and after this mess I don't think I ever will again) but has there ever been the #2 rejected one saying "My feelings have never changed, I'm still in love, I pray every night he'll change his mind" etc.? Biggest set-up ever.
& his whole body language/demeanor was just so weird.

I just told Mr. Fro that the next time we're having a fight, I'd like Chris Harrison to come and take us to commercial break just when it's getting good.

Oh, and I'd like a limo to whisk me away.

This guy is a trainwreck and Molly would be (is) crazy to hook back up with him. Everyone felt so sorry for him last year and he screws up just like Deanna. What is worse is that she travels 4000 miles to tell him not to screw it up and he still did. Why didn't he just give her a rose?

What a jerk!

"RE: Batchelor Finale 3/2 ECST"
Posted by Snidget on 03-02-09 at 10:31 PM
Is it just me, or when the host came back in and sat down did he do it with a come over here try to cry on me and snot on my suit and I will kill you sort of snort.
"RE: Batchelor Finale 3/2 ECST"
Posted by TVFreak on 03-02-09 at 10:38 PM
That was reality TV host speak that meant 'this show is so rediculously, rediculous that even I can't believe it'.
"RE: Batchelor Finale 3/2 ECST"
Posted by jbug on 03-02-09 at 10:36 PM
I missed the first hour & a half; got home just as he was meeting Molly for his rubdown. Then DeAnna.
Was it just me or did it sound like she was offering herself as a third choice?

Melissa got the raw end of this deal.
But I think she knew what was going to happen when she went in.

"RE: Batchelor Finale 3/2 ECST"

"You're making the biggest mistake" "You're just going to end up gettting hurt again" Great reading off the cue cards.

For those of us who believed the realitysteve spoiler ever since it came out, and have seen it proven right at every turn so far, I think we know that she doesn't.
"RE: Batchelor Finale 3/2 ECST"
Posted by frodis on 03-02-09 at 10:46 PM
At this point, since we won't get the satisfaction of Molly laughing in Jason's face, I'm just wishing that the most.dramatic.twist.ever is that the guy playing the sad guitar into the commercial breaks is the Free Credit Report.com guy and that we'll get a good jingle at the end.

Well, I guess it could be balls. Or we could be just hen-pecked and our wives make us watch.

I'll drop in a siggie and say that I feel like I just saw a train wreck and couldn't look away.

OMG.. I feel badly for Melissa.. I think Molly is stupid and I don't for one minute believe Jason's fake tears after Melissa walked out and his saying he tried. I sincerely hope that Melissa finds happiness she deserves so much more than what Jason just did to her.
"RE: Batchelor Finale 3/2 ECST"
Posted by Loree on 03-03-09 at 00:55 AM
The lies started before they ever got to the After The Final Rose. DeAnna said she had not seen Jason since their After the Final Rose cermony. WRONG. Jason was at a celebrity charity thing with DeAnna and Jesse while they were engaged. I saw the photos and thought it was odd Jason wanted to hang out with them. ABC is lying about alot of this. Melissa suspected that Jason was seeing Molly behing her back. And I believe it was true.

Jason was a total jerk. He dragged Melissa on TV to break up with her. Molly and Jason deserve each other. And I don't think it will last.

Why did Molly spend so much time on her hair for the Final Rose Ceremony? We saw her curling and teasing and working on her hair. Then she showed up in that rats nest of a pony tail to greet Jason.

HAHA i noticed that too! I love that ABC kept the taping "intimate with no audience"...and only millions of TV viewers?? I just kept hoping Molly would reject Jason and say "Um, heck no, I have a new boyfriend and he's tall with nice ears and I can wear heels around him." *sigh* unfortunately she took the tool bag

"Bottom line"
Posted by lipid on 03-04-09 at 00:54 AM
I think Jason had more sexual chemistry with Molly and more
emotional chemistry with Melissa.He spoke of passion often and
in the end, it was is priority. We can predict how this ends.

"RE: Bottom line"
Posted by woiwod on 03-04-09 at 08:21 PM
I think the "botton line" is that Jason is a human being and not a movie star. He made a mistake, those of us who have never made mistakes please raise your right hand!! I saw he and Molly on the After the final rose last night and they look genuinely happy. If the press would leave them alone they have a good chance of making it but the pressure must be something awful. Jason was obviously confused and did what he thought was right but realized in time that it was not the right choice. Good for him to acknowledge this. I wonder how many other bachelors have chosen one and then later realized it was the other one and so the relationships have seldom worked out.
