"What do you think of Meredith as the Bachelorette?" |
There was heated debate in this forum before the show aired questioning Meredith being pretty enough, interesting enough etc., to be the Bachelorette. I was in the minority who supported her and thought she was fabulous from her days on the Bachelor. I think she's coming through with style, grace, humor, elegance, beauty and more... WHILE being true to herself by not being overly made-up or wearing overly revealing outfits. What do you all think?

I think that she is doing OK, But I like her far better than the queen of media whoring(Trista). I think Meredith herself is great. I really liked her on the Bachelor. She is just not as emotional as some other people have been.

I've only been watching the Bach/Bachelorette shows since Andrew Firestone, so I can't compare Meredith to Trista.I like Meredith because she seems to laugh a lot. I've also noticed that the men are holding back in the smooching department. It could be this is a shy bunch of guys? Or maybe they respect women more than good-old-Bob? Or they don't want to climb all over her until they are more secure in her affections. Did the guys lunge at Trista for liplock time?

I think she hasn't been too emotional partly because she is most interested in Ian, who as we know hasn't exactly flamed the emotional fires. He has piqued her interest, but his reticence to provide too many details on his own emotions has helped to keep hers in check. She's been fun, outgoing, vivacious, but she isn't going to commit to one of the other guys until she decides to boot Ian. And a lot of the other guys don't really seem right for her. I think if she had to pick a Final 2 today, her choices would be Matt and Ian. But there are still two much more intimate dates in which to find out for sure if those are the Final Two guys, and for her to figure out WHAT to ask of each man, in order to be certain he's NOT the right one. Chad being unemployed = probably not getting to Final 3 Lanny's Mom being overbearing, plus the city/country thing and we should soon hear more about his religious side - could mean he'll get to Final 3, but not Final 2. Anyway, I am enjoying the show, but if Ian gets turfed out before Final 2, a lot of my interest will evaporate.

At first, I really liked Meredith and thought she was doing a great job as the new Bachelorette, but now she has confused me by alot of mixed messages she has been giving to the guys. She seems to tell them she really likes them and enjoys being with them when they are together and then blows them away at the RC. No wonder some of the guys are overreacting after the RC is over.

LAST EDITED ON 02-08-04 AT 02:17 PM (EST)I think Meredith is sincere. I think she is appreciating these men and treating each one as a potential husband. That is what the show is about. In the moment, you can see on her face that she really likes someone - which doesn't necessarily mean that they're right for her. If she has been positive to a man who she later dismisses (due to the weeding process), hurting them; their egos' might be reading too much into things. Also, I haven't seen her making out, with legs and all, with anyone she wasn't truly into. Ryan M. didn't get a passionate kiss that I saw. She did kiss Rick when she was into him, but later made things clear when she wasn't. Only the men who she spent little time with and had little to go on, didn't see the chopping block coming. Some didn't WANT to see it coming. Ryan R. knew things had changed, but blamed others. About Ian - she hadn't had a chance to speak with him before she did. What concerned her about him was the obvious affections and intentions of the other men on the one on one dates, which he hadn't shown. Later, she began to question him. (I bet they end up together, anyway.) In other words, she had something to compare their date to. Is there a double standard because she's female?? I don't see her as a ho'. I don't find her boring, either. (Then again, I'm probably boring, staying home with a one year old! ) Food for thought, Mink-o-dink

I think Meredith is great! She is a natural beauty. I'm sure dating on TV is something none of us have experienced so give her a break! Plus, whatever you're being "allowed" to see is completely upto the network. Meredith is just a girl looking for something we all want, love. I'm still voting for Lanny! Religion is about morals which the world could use a little more of! And the way he just wanted to kick back with her in the chair, I'd wrap my legs around him too!

I adore her. I think she's gorgeous, easy going, comfortable in her own skin, and has a great sense of fun. I think she puts the guys at ease and makes each of them feel special. I couldn't watch Trista's entire season because she got on my nerves so bad, but I'm really enjoying this one.

I'm really enjoying Meredith. For me, I think it's because I identify more with her understated nature. Trista's babytalking just annoyed me. I think it's great that these shows include different kinds of attractive (although, they certainly failed with Bob, who grew less attractive as we got to know him).I agree that she may not be the brightest bulb, though. I'd love for them to put a brilliant female scientist on the show, and watch the guys scramble to make conversation. I also have not agreed with her choices AT ALL! She really let go all of the guys I would have chosen. The last to go was Sean, who we never got to know, but who I suspect had more to him than meets the eye. I've mostly liked her clothes. But the purple velvet off-the-shoulder number was appalling. I think she's gaining weight, also. But I guess it would be easy to with all those fabulous meals and wine.

Sean was intriguing to me, too. I found him most attractive. I'm not sure about Meredith's intelligence. It's very hard for me to evaluate from the show. Wish I could talk to her. Smarty, I loved your comment about the female scientist. I'm imagining her conversing with Ryan R... His head explodes.

I just love Meredity as the Bachelorette. I am so happy that she was not picked by Bob. She was too good for him. She is classy has her head on straight and knows what she wants. She seems a bit confuseed with Ian. I truly feel that at the end she will (somehow) get what she wants. Remember, she will have unmonitored time with the person(s) she is kinda set. She can go to the producers and they will give her time.
