3. "RE: Meet the Bachelors" |
Well let' meet them...and remember its cruel to be kind.Bachelor Number 1. Andrew - Bartender. Well its good to have someone who knows how to pour in these circumstances. But that widow's peak reminds me of Quentin Collins from Dark Shadows. Bachelor Number 2. Andy - Ski Coach. Okay, why does he remind me of Mr. Trista Sutter, Ryan. Just less of a jughead. Hope he writes poetry because that is about all that he could offer at this point. Bachelor Number 3. AW. For what awfully wussy. The dude has to be the illegitimate offspring of Marty Feldman. If they ever remake Young Frankenstein they could call this guy. Bachelor Number 4. Ben, another ski instructor. Jen has a thing for the whole mountain man. Why he reminds me of one of the grown Brady Boys and that is not a good thing. Bachelor Number 5. Chris C. Hairdresser. Apparently he missed the casting for Blow Out...he reminds me of the dopey one from Manhunt's Top Gay Model. And when I mean dopey I mean it in every possible connotation of the word. And seeing he is the booze hound in the previews that may well be true. Bachelor Number 5. Chris M..Sports Agent. One word: ARLISS. Bachelor Number 6. Colin, Sports Agent. Two Words: Jerry Maguire and not in a Tom Cruise way.. more a Jay Mohr way. Bachelor Number 7. David, Marketing Director. When David lost out on Playing it Straight he thought he would try again. Bachelor Number 8. Eric, Firefighter. So two years ago. Aren't we over that whole persona? Bachelor Number 9. Eric H. Magazine Editor. What for Hunting and Guns Monthly? Hardly a metrosexual so he can't work for GQ or Maxim. Looks a little walleyed in the photo so you would never really have full eye contact or even know when you did. Bachelor Number 10. Fabrice, Investor. Advice: Never date a man who is named after a fabric softner. Bachelor Number 11. Jason, Motivational Speaker. Well I have a word of motivation for you. LEAVE!! Even Tony Robbins wouldn't be associated with this crapfest. Bachelor Number 12. Jerry, Art Gallery Director. Jerry meet David, you two will really hit it off. Bachelor Number 13. John Paul, Entrepenuer. Well that name connotates names of pirates, Pope's, rock stars and child actors. These are not good things. Bachelor Number 14. Josh, Pro Marathoner. Well that is a skill that comes in handy when you want get the he.ll out of there. Bachelor Number 15. Keith, Welder. Welder...hahahahaahahaaahah! Bye Keith we hardly knew ye. Bachelor Number 16. Kevin, Consultant. I think this is the winner. Jen looks like a girl who grooves on dockers and golf shirts. Bachelor Number 17. Mark, Commerical Finance. There is just something so MARY about this guy. Bachelor Number 18. Matt L, the L is for Lawyer. He looks like someone who would never want you to forget that he is a Lawyer. Bachelor Number 20. Matt M, Firefighter. You know many in this field are often arsonists.... just a thought. But he does seem to enjoy a good spray on tan. Bachelor Number 21. Michael, Teacher. Hope the kids don't see this show or well you may have to change jobs. Bachelor Number 22. Ryan Sh...Teacher too. Well talk to Michael and that broad from MBFOF Randee about post reality whore job opportunities. I also get a whole Blob flashback to this guy. Bachelor Number 23. Ryan Sm, Lawyer. Black guy, will last to second episode. Take the welder with you on the way out. Bachelor Number 24. Stu, Lawyer. Did he botox his head? Look how good that worked on Jonathan on TAR. Bachelor Number 25. Wendell, Entrepeneur. Well the dude's name is Wendell you do the math.
Wow and she had a hand in picking these dudes. This may be a long 8 episodes.

11. "RE: After the 1st episode..." |
Sooooo swooney!!!! Could that Jerry be any more adorable?!? Let's just not let him talk, so as not to spoil any of our high hopes and call him the winner right now! I like Matt from New York too, and Ryan the teacher has a very sweet quality. John Paul seems pretty passionate but why go by the two names??? Ironically my husband's name is John Paul and he goes by J.P. Seems less pretentious if you ask me 
I was very surprised by some of her picks. Didn't it seem that she looked irritated by Fabrice (who wouldn't have been?) so when she picked him, that was a shocker!

14. "RE: After the 1st episode..." |
LAST EDITED ON 01-11-05 AT 10:46 AM (EST)I didn't even read the spoiler but I am guessing from first watch that Wendell is the winner. He is from Chicago, is clean cut but not too good looking (a la Lord Firewad) and has his own business. Another Bill Rancic... who ironically she "dated" after her breakup. As for her picking Fabrice I think final 4 with a trip to Paris thrown in I would pick him too. She is not his type in the least and I doubt he knew anything about this show as it doesn't air in Paris.. so he is in for a laugh. One "bonne jewr" from her would have cemented that for him. The Parisians are very particular about the French accent and she is just a little too homespun for a true Frenchie... but hel/l I'd do him. This leaves Ben and Jerry as the final two. Jerry is hot and he is the Charlie of this season. Too hot, too sharp and too much for our little simple girl from a simple town looking for a simple guy. Ben is adorable and he skis, she does not and she is not moving to a ski town and he would have no job in Chicago so no. As for the rest of the boys, I wasn't too far off the mark in my photo assesment. The only one that I thought might have a chance was David Schwimmer Jr... it wasn't that he passed out but that he wears more pancake makeup then Jen. Does she wear enough slap? Makes me wonder what is wrong with her skin. And by the way I saw her a few times here when she lived her with Andrew and it was like that all the time as well. That may have been a problem there with the whole mess on the pillow, that and they were of two different worlds and he has the maturity of a 6 week old puppy that just isn't quite house trained. Stu is the "stalker" one of this season. We can thank Russ for establishing that stereotype and then Trish for taking it to the next level. I see Russ all the time and frankly he is nothing like the Trista freak he was portrayed as. He defined it as being competitive and thought it would give him and edge however today he thinks he is the real winner. And I agree. The welder is adorable, but he is a WELDER and a SURFER. Need I say more? I have no real thoughts on the others because they are of course identity-less as the producers want them to be, so they can assign them their given "role." They make little sense half the time in these selections and given that she had a hand in picking them in advance she has to have an idea who is the keeper. Of course it doesn't explain the drunken hillbilly hairdresser and why he made the cut at all. Then we have her fugly friends... that says it all, moving on. Of course the Clone of a male humanoid in the personality-less persona of Chris Harrison continues to make me wonder if he ever gets beyond the yawn he is. What a tool and waste of space, the faux sincerity, the faux praise, the faux hype it just doesn't match the emptiness that is this man's soul. Whoever said love was lovlier the second time around was WRONG. Frankly the more we see of these media whores the more I dislike them. And bringing back losers in love a second time around just really cements my distate. And this shows us that Jen is well STUPID. She attempted to speak French, okay I will say that was French Canadian. Then my favorite was "it was tough walking in the room with 25 eyes on you" Uh, are they pirates? Its 25 SETS of eyes or 50 eyes... They better keep that wonderbra on it will distract the men. I knew right away that the attorney who said he liked "smart women" would be cut immediately. Don't they ever learn? We were baby-talked by Trista, grossed out by Blob and his tongue, scared of Meredith's manhands and saddened by Mary's shrinking ovaries every time... I have no doubt Jen will grow to irritate me like the rash I get every time I see Blob or Trista.

25. "RE: After the 1st episode..." |
LAST EDITED ON 01-15-05 AT 01:49 AM (EST)LAST EDITED ON 01-15-05 AT 01:46 AM (EST) My hard-core reality TV fiend friend passed this along. I have no idea how she remembers things like this, but apparently Jerry was on Real World 10 (Back to NY), though not as an actual cast member. Remember the cute jewelry store doorman that Lori had a thing for? Here's the episode guide link she sent me: <http://onthebox.netfirms.com/Articles/RealWorld/RealWorldEp13.htm> In case the link doesn't work, here's the important part of the summary (episode #13 of the season): "Lori and Coral are walking down the street and pass Prince William. Ok, not really, but let's just call him that for fun. Coral dares Lori to say something to him (in light of their new pact and all), and tells her to go because he's "looking at her." Yeah, and I'm so sure that the big boom and camera crew she has following her around in broad daylight has NOTHING to do with his interest. Lori approaches who turns out to be Jerry the Doorman at an "Upscale Jewelry Store." I don't know why MTV bothered with the secrecy only to reveal the actual name of the store (it's Harry Winston) minutes later. I also don't know why he had to be named Jerry. I don't think this name suits him. I like Prince William better. Anyway, Lori moseys on over and says something lame like, I see you all the time, wanted to say hi garbage. He seems mildly interested, emphasis on mildly. So Lori (safely this time I might add) assumes that all systems are a go with Brit-like boy. She asks him to hang that night and he says he can't. But it's the way he says he can't. It's not like a, "oh man, I'd like to, but I'm busy," instead it is a, "no I can't and never, ever will be able to." Turns out the latter is closer to being true once royalty in training reveals that he is practically a married man. Hmm...conscious of the cameras finally, are we? I meanwhile, feel bad for Lori. It's awkward enough being shot down in front of the actual person much less the entire viewing public. Not to mention the endless repeats where that moment will be re aired and compromised, and discussed and analyzed over coffee for at a least a few months to come...but I digress. Lori scampers off, cigarette in hand, consoling herself aloud on the streets of New York. Well, at least one good thing came out of this. Now she looks like a true New Yorker! At home, Lori says she has decided to abandon her search. The girls meanwhile decide that is why he was only the doorman. Yeah, because I see THAT connection!"

16. "RE: Meet the Bachelors" |
Keith is the welder and I think he is cute. Jerry is my fave so far. I came on to rant about Fabrize. What an a***!! He is every stereotype of obnoxious French people and I cant believe she picked him. What an ego!! Do any of you like him? Ugh. I also like Michael. The guy from Oklahoma(I think his name is John Paul) was on our local news last night. He has the personality of a doorknob. All he talked about was how successful he is. There is my rant for the day. Sorry if I offended any poster from France. I just think Fabrize is total jack****.

20. "RE: Febreeze..." |
Okay, playing Devil's Advocate for a moment.1. Fabreeze lives in Paris or at least that is what he says. He has never heard of Jen or the Bachelorette and yet somehow as we are told, signs up for the show because of his enormous love of Jen... she picks him or at least we are led to believe this via Jen herself. 2. He seems clueless upon arrival and she seems to actually not have a sign of recognition either, completing butchering her French greeting to him. 3. He is shocked that no sex occurs - or at least until final 4 when "everyone gets it on" so that should keep him in. 4. Final 4 guarantees a trip to Paris, the City of Light and really one of the most ROMANTIC cities in the world. Fabreeze gets laid, Jen gets a trip to Paris. 5. The flame thrower. Mike Fleiss probably threw this guy in because he is both French and arrogant. They aren't mutually exclusive. But hey we are supposed to French bash, Freedom fries and all. This guy is not "stereotypical" French just like the hot black guy is not the token minority. Right and if you believe Jen is going to take back to Ohio the hot black attorney I have a fabulous waterfront property to show you... of course it fell into the water due to floods but its a fixer upper!! I just want to stick up a little for Fabreeze here because he is arrogant and cocky but if he was American we would say the same thing, but he is clearly a ringer as there is no way unless the guy wants a green card he is going to marry Jen and there is no way she is moving to Paris. This is just another stolen idea from Sex and the City. God, Mike Fleiss is incapable of orignality.

27. "RE: Meet the Bachelors" |
Ok, maybe I am just cynical, but I think that there is much more to the editing of this show than it appears. (At this early point in the game) it seems just too obvious that she is hooked on Jerry. Jerry is definately hot, don't get me wrong, but if she picks Jerry, it doesn't make for very entertaining and suspenseful television. I would love to see her go from rich guy Andrew Firestone to welder guy Keith. That would be great television. But then there would be a secret surprise ending that Keith actually just welds for fun, he is secretly the inventor of tivo or something. I know it sounds stupid and I am secretly laughing to myself while I type this. lol.
I am pulling for Keith, he is hot in a sort of everyday guy way. Maybe Ryan Sh and I am sort of intrigued by the creepy Stu. I like creepy guys.
Also, I read somewhere that Jerry was on MTV's Realworld, the one where they go back to New York. He was a doorman at a Jewelry store.

29. "RE: Meet the Bachelors" |
Well, if the Bachelor isn't entertaining or suspensful, then why watch it? If you aren't "into" the Bachelor or Bachelorette, then why are you on this board. Most people who are here are interested in watching the show and talking to others who are watching and are interested.
As for the job issue, I don't think his job is an issue, that is just how I refer to him. Myself, I think a welder is a very sexy occupation. I am not in any way knocking the occupation of any of the guys.
Most of us would agree that we are all on this board, totally over-analyzing the show, trying to get a clue on whats going on. Also, I like talking to other people who watch the same shows as I do.

I am on this message board discussing the first episode in which I watched because I wanted to see how this season starts out. The show isn't suspensful to me at all. It was somewhat entertaining but just as every season of this show, I will lose interest about half-way through and just watch the finale to see who she picks!

34. "RE: Update on Jerry..." |
My thought that Jerry was the new Charlie may be in fact true. This was in the NY Post page 6.---------------------IF at first you don't succeed, find a new reality TV babe to date" seems to be the mantra of Jerry, one of the contestants on "The Bachelorette." The art gallery director, 29, is said to be "desperate" to break into television, and believes he'll get noticed as the arm candy of a bevy of reality chicks. First he dated Lori Trespicio from "The Real World: 10," getting air time but no deals. Then he moved to Los Angeles and dated Lisa Donahue, the winner of "Big Brother 3." "He thought he needed not just a cast member but a winner," a source shared. Now, he's hoping the third time's a charm with bachelorette Jen Schefft. So do we.

36. "RE: Update on Jerry..." |
I hate to sound so entirely on Jerry's side, but he and I used to work together while I was going through college in his hometown. We even did a small runway show together! During an age when it was more important to be in the right crowd and be at the right places at the right time, if my memory serves me correctly, Jerry's father passed away early in Jerry's childhood and Jerry's number one concern was to take care of his mother and little brother. He always was so proud of his mother and would sell his left arm for his brother. At such a young age to put your family ahead of everything speaks for itself. I've got to admit that I even took notes on how kind hearted and what a thoughtfull boyfriend he was to his high school sweetheart at the time. The portrayal of him on The Bachelorette as being the perfect gentlemen was how I remembered Jerry. He and I hadn't spoken since we no longer worked together and I have nothing to gain from this posting other than to point out that he was as I remembered a very upfront and sincere person and I would like to wish him the best of luck no matter what the outcome may be on The Bachelorette!
