"Episode 4 thoughts and rants anyone?"
Posted by CantStandToLook on 06-29-04 at 09:34 AM
So what did everyone think of last nights episode?

I'm kinda torn now when it comes to the women. Rachel still very much seems like she's going for the money though she keeps saying she could go either way.

Who knew that PJ , the little darling *yeah right*, is playing the game though I must say she has definitely been playing a better game than the others. I had no clue she was thinking money till last night. I think Preston would still stand a decent chance with her though.

Can anyone else say...good riddance andrea!!!...yeah I thought so. She was just way over the top on the fantasy-date and that along with what the others said about her sealed her doom and rightly so. Then she had the nerve to try, try I say, to look hurt when Preston kicked her arse to the curb.

Now the shocker for me was Rebeka. She's one HOT HOT girl, at least IMO, but she was also being very classy and (from what we were shown) genuine throughout the whole fantasy date and elimination ceremony. I definitely think that he should have kept her and let either PJ or Rachel go.

I dont think I even need to say anything about Rachel cause she says it all herself and all the time. Whiny baby pants at the beach who gets her way...lying "I dont want to seem like I'm bragging" when lying to explain why she HAS TO KNOW everything about everyone elses dates while divulging nothing about her own.

With it down to the final two? I'm sure there's another twist coming up...because HOW COULD THERE NOT BE ANOTHER TWIST??? Let twist again like we did last summer. I think the producers of this show wrote that song. So what with Devil Host Jordan have for them next week before Preston chooses PJ and Rachel stabs them both before turning the knife on herself, whereupon Jordan turns to her and says..."hold up...our deal was I get your soul and then you die!"

Well that enough ranting for now...look for Jordan to eat Joe Rogan alive and take over Fear Factor in the off-season...cause seriously..Who isnt' scared when they see this guy coming? Yeah, that what I thought.

Looking forward to hearing what everyone else thought.

I thought that last night's episode was great! I lvoe not knowing which girl has what check. I can't believe the loser chose Rachel over Rebkah...in her words: "God help the man if she's his type." I also laughed really hard over Andrea's comment when she found out her check was worth a million: "It's a good thing he sent me home after all, cause we all know what I would've chosen."
Something tells me that Rachel now has one of the million dollar checks. ::sigh:: I was really rooting for Rebakah and PJ, but I got this feeling toward the end of the show that it would be a good girl vs. the "bad girl" thing. Poor PJ, I have a feeling he'll choose Rachel in the end, and she'll choose the money over him, but then again you never know...


-am enjoying this show much more then the last three Bachelor seasons

Rebakah was probably lucky to get booted. She deserves better than pathetic Preston. And her money was only $1. And yes, we knew it would be a good girl vs a bad girl so they couldn't have Rebakah and PJ in the final. Rachel had to be there. I think Rachel and Preston kind of deserve each other. I hope PJ has the million.

I'm with you Loree... Rachel is a $itch and deserves Preston, who is soooooo lame and immature. Rebekah was the best choice and she is way to good for him. I like the way PJ has played the game and would love for her to have the choice between Preston and big bucks.

I am glad that Andrea is gone. I did not find her cute at all. The difference between Andrea and Rachel is that Rachel is better at being fake. Andrea just couldn't pull it off. Andrea has bugged me from the start. She really needs to cover her stomach up. I got sick and tired of seeing it. She had her midriff showing in the cold at Lake Tahoe. Ugh! I can't stand her.

I was really hoping he'd keep Rebekah around. What a cutie! I think Preston proved he was a jerk when he told Rebekah the only reason she was sent home is because he'd spent more time with the other women. Rebekah will be better off now!

I don't like the fact that we don't know the check amounts. This gives the producers the edge. They can now give the million dollar check to whomever they want. They can create the ending to their liking.

I hope PJ has a million, gets chosen and takes the money.

Although, It would be interesting if Rachel gets chosen and she choses Preston, and he choses the money instead. This allows him to steal the "ULTIMATE PLAYER" title away from Rachel and she's left in shock! Now that's what I call ratings!

Would that not be the best ever ending. Maybe they are setting us up for this....cause you notice...Preston is not saying a whole lot about whether he would consider taking the money. Right now all the focus from his perspective has been finding the girl that would choose him over the money.

I agree--that ending would rock.

However, if it's a $1 check, I wouldn't be srprised to see the show kick in 1/2 million for their efforts. Like they did on the first one.

Missed last week's episode, but did catch this one. I like that they keep throwing the twists in, makes the show go really quickly. I do think the reality shows are getting more and more scripted. I think they promised Preston someone would have a million dollar check at the end. No way in RL he would have dumped all the million dollar girls. There had to be something about at least one of them that would have made him able to put up with them! It did what the producers intended, made it look like he didn't care about the money.
You guys want Preston to get the money, I only want that to happen if it is a dollar. lol For Prestor OR Rachel to end with a dollar would make a happy series for me.

Too many twists and turns for my liking. I'm getting carsick.

My feeling is that Preston really,really likes PJ and could see her being the love of his life, but he is REALLY hot for Rachel
and probably imagines the best sex of his life if he chooses her.

I don't think PJ's playing for money, despite what she said last night. I think they are encouraged by the producers to play up their interest in the money.

I also don't think Rachel is as interested in the money as she seems. My prediction - Preston chooses Rachel, who has a $1 check. She chooses the money and goes home with $0.22 - the cash value of her 40-year, $1 annuity.

PJ has the million dollar check, and they offer to let her put it if she can get a guy to choose her in FLOM4

Posted by tig_ger on 06-29-04 at 01:27 PM
I'm getting carsick here too. Your prediction sounds plausible. There are several good possible scenarios here.

I think the best strategy is to ignore the money and play the game as though there was no money involved until the final night. It seems like PJ was doing that until tonight when she started to think about the money. Will it be her downfall?

I thought the same thing too. Rachel's body is banging! I was drooling all over the place last night watching Rebekah and Rachel on the beach in their bikinis...

How could Preston not see what we see in Rebekkah?

She has everything a guy would like in a lady--pretty face, great body, charming, great body, funny, great body...oh, did I mention great body?

I was very annoyed with last nights show
reason #1 Rachel she looks like a vampire and acts like baby
reason#2 I wanted Preston to pick Rachel have Rachel pick the $$$ and get humilliated when she found out she was only worth a buck now there is the possibility she may have a million and thats just not right
although thats what Preston (who names their child Preston?!) deserves for not listening to the other women when they told him she was a money hugary witch

Im sure the next episode will be dragged out for 90 minn which means I'll only tune in for the last 15

Now the shocker for me was Rebeka. She's one HOT HOT girl

I agree with you on this, Rebekah is baby's momma material. Absolutely gorgeous! Did you see her running up the steps in Cabo after Preston sent her packing? Jesus, Mary, and Joseph!

I didn't know until last night what kind of smokin' body Rachel had! If she wasn't such a basket case, she'd be pretty hot too.

I think Preston is a major doofus for getting rid of Rebekah. Telling her the reason he's letting her go is because he didn't spend as much time with her. Excuse me? You had time to spend with her in Cabo and you sent her packing because you said you didn't have any questions about her. What a lying piece! He didn't deserve her anyway.

I hope Rachel and Preston both get what they deserve...

"Keeping the money amounts a mystery"
Posted by Loree on 06-29-04 at 03:32 PM
Doesn't it seem a little too convenient that they have one left with $1 and one with a million? I think they are keeping it a secret so they can just make whatever amount they want. I don't believe the money was even marked down when they chose lastnight. The producers just waited and assigned one of each after Andrea and Rebakah were booted. They keep manipulating to make sure someone is worth a million at the end.

Posted by Norcalfella on 07-04-04 at 01:07 AM
Loree,

Completely. It is getting to the point where these shows are 10% reality and 90% scripted. Who is to say that the winner won't have a $1 check and the producers swap it out? They probably told all the girls to switch their checks for just that reason. Andrea would never have thrown away $250K for a 50/50 shot at being stuck with $1 I mean please.

An example of how they could have avoided this is, in the event that (for example) Preston chooses PJ and her value is $1, is to simply make Rachel the offer to return to the show for $1M as a reward for her good luck. Or heck just let PJ play to get the $1M a second time around, who cares if it is double or nothing?

I agree with what you said, but you said it much better than I could. Rachael is a real witch. I still think she needs glasses the way she squints all the time. I was very surprised that he kept her and not Rebecca. At least Rebecca was in it for Love, which is not what Rachael is there for. If he picks Rachael he deserves it after hearing all the comments about her.
I guess he likes her. He thinks she is sincere. LOL Men sure can't figure out women. All they have to do is charm him and he will believe anything they say. JMO I guess in the end they will not know how much the checks are for until after he picks the one. If its Rachael I hope it is the $1.00. Can't wait to hear what the next twist is.

Ok, So I agree that Rebeka is seriously hot. Though her voice got on my nerves while they were at the beach. Not that you were listening to her. Anyways, it's hard to watch a show when you know we are being manipulated so badly. Of course there has to be a good vs. bad girl, otherwise would we care?

I'm new here and I've enjoyed reading this thread. Here are my thoughts:

1. I hated this last twist with the mystery checks. I wanted Rachael to stay at $1.

2. Rebekkah is HOT! I'm so glad this twerp didn't like her. She can do far better and $1 was not worth it. I hated every second she kissed the guy.

3. Andrea is as worse as Rachael.

4. Rachael and Preston deserve each other.

5. PJ hadn't impressed me, up until this show. (Sorry, I know it's not her fault she's a blonde.) She is very WISE to go for the money instead of that loser!

6. One too many twists.

Welcome to the boards ...it usually takes one too many way over the top episodes to pull people out of lurkdom and force them to voice their opinions.

We love hearing em...good, bad , indifferent. So stick around a while and have some fun.

It is not what Preston wants its what the producers want for a good show/entertainment..They clearly want the good girl/bad girl showdown for rating..This is just a another scripted show made to look like "reality"..

If that's true, then I think we are wasting our time on reality TV. However, I do think Preston is weird, so it does not surprise me to see him not take Rebekah. Also, don't forget, her check was only for one dollar. That could have influenced him too.
