Bachelor: After the final Rose

Ben meets with Chris Harrison to talk about how everything went down. Ben tells him that they broke off their engagement because of all the things that went down when watching the show and Courtney's behavior.

Then we bring in Courtney and she talks about how she loves Ben and she apologizes. Its funny to see the reactions of the crowd as well. They hate her. She doesn't wear a ring and talks about how upset she was that Ben abandoned her when everything came out. To be honest, so would I. How could he?

from abc.com

He finally talks about how they are together and are engaged again and he puts the ring back on her finger.

We bring out Ashley and JP and they talk about where they are today. Still cute and still in love. They joke about her being pregnant, true or not? Not so sure. Then they speak about how they are actually going to plan their wedding for next year and they moved out of NYC and into NJ. Cute!

from abc.com

I actually watched some of Jimmy Kimmel afterwards and there was this cute spoof of Ben and Chris Harrison finding love with one another. I loved it! I hope to watch again tonight and see the rest and the interview with Lindzi.

What did you think? Do you think they will stay together?

Bachelor: The Final Rose

Wow. I some how snuck in the 1.5 hours (sans commercials) to watch the season finale last night. I however, did not get to see after the rose. So that will come tomorrow. Please read on....

We are still in Switzerland and Ben's mom and sister, Julia are coming to meet the girls. He is so happy to see them, he cries. They tell him they are worried about Courtney, since they have heard and read such bad things about her. They first meet Lindzi and they love her. To be honest, even though she is great and sweet and pure, the great one never gets the rose. With Ali, she let sweet Chris go and kept bad boy Roberto and same for Ashley, she let sweet Ben go and kept J.P. This would be no different. But I was happy to see him finally admit he loved both woman. She told him she loved him, with honesty in her eyes and she made such a good impression on the woman in his life. She was so nervous, she dropped her silverware tons of times, haha.

Next up is Courtney. She is super nervous as well and tries to field the questions about her attitudes towards the girls. She tells his sister that she just put her guard up because the girls didn't like her because of the model persona. They end up telling Ben how much they love Courtney and she is the right girl for him. He really appreciates that.

He has his last date with Lindzi and they go skiing. They have this whole picnic in a gondola, which is pretty cool. She tells him how much she loves him and how she knows he cannot say it back. He feels love for her too, but is he in love with her?

His last date with Courtney is up and they have a super sweet time in a helicopter over the Matterhorn. She makes him this picture book of their time together and writes a really sweet note. You can actually see why they belong together from this. She is nervous about him letting her go because of what she did to the other girls. She brings it up again and he is confused why this has not been laid to rest yet.

He goes to pick out his ring, yet again from Neil Lane. He remarks, this isn't your first time at the rodeo. Haha. He picks out this huge cushion cut ring. He tells the camera he knows who he wants.

from abc.com

The girls get ready. Lindzi wears this pretty black dress with ruffles and this green cape, which looks too wicked witch of the west for me. Courtney puts on this stunning black glitter dress with cutouts and these long black gloves and white cape. How will she get a ring on with those gloves, I continuously shout at the TV.

First to arrive via helicopter is Lindzi and she is excited. He tells her how great she is and how she lights up a room and then he says BUT and her face drops. He tells her he is in love with another woman. He walks her back and she is very upset. She tells him that if it doesn't work out with Courtney, she loves him and to call her. Bold move Lindz!

from abc.com

Then to arrive is Courtney. You can usually tell who they will propose to by the look on their face. He is more than happy to see her. He tells her he loves her and even puts a BUT in there, but tells her that she is his forever. She cries and takes a step back. He proposes to her and she says yes, they kiss and hug with the white mountains in the background. She finally takes off her glove to put the ring on. He gives her the final rose and she accepts!

from abc.com

Will this last? Do you think he should have picked Lindzi? Did you watch after the rose? I cant wait to see it tonight!

Bachelor: The Women Tell All

Oh wow. This was a great 2 hours. Let's begin, shall we?

We start off with a bachelor reunion. I am seeing all sorts of things. I see Kasey not with Vienna but kissing some girl. When did they break up? I hear them all talking about Bachelor Pad 3, which I cannot wait to watch this summer. Then I see my favorite Ali. We get to see a clip of her and Roberto and I remember how much I loved her on that season. We then see Frank. He talks about him and his girlfriend broke up and how he is excited to see Ali. They have a mini reunion and it is super cute. I hope they end up being partners on Bachelor Pad 3. 

Now on to the girls. We see a bunch of the girls that were on for like a day and then we see the more hated, Blakely, and then the favorites, Nikki and Kacie B. Blakely gets ragged on by the girls and we only hear Samantha barking away. She got sent home for her mouth, doesn't she remember? One of the girls calls her a Chihuahua. Monica is very vocal as well, she starts making boo hoo and wah wah noises, shut up. Shawntel comes on and gets to have the girls apologize to her for their behavior. Emily tells her that she is drop dead gorgeous.


Don't you love Emily?  Emily says she regrets talking about Courtney. She is happy to not have ended up with him. If he does choose court he has made his own bed and he has to lie in it.


We then move on to Nikki. Just talks about how she doesn't ask what she did wrong because She was herself. She knows that she did everything she could and it just didn't work out.

We then go to Kacie b. She realizes that their families were too different. She knows that their backgrounds is what the problem was. She says that he could never understand where she was coming from.

We then do a whole reel of scenes of Courtney. I Love how the girls react. All of them roll their eyes and all of them cant stand her. They don't think she was true. Casey S. is her only friend and defends her. The girls give her heat for doing so. Emily makes a good point though. Even if she was nice to Casey and to Ben, that was one side. People with two sides cannot be trusted. What you see is what you get with some girls.  

We learn that Courtney is there and the crowd goes wild for this. Courtney walks out and she is scared to death. She regrets everything she says. I don't know if I believe Courtney. She looks upset but that's maybe because her image is tarnished. She's only upset because her family has been torn apart. I think that she is trying to show that it ripped her family apart and that she needs to make amends in order for the tabloids to like her again. She cries and cries, but I still don't believe her.


Then Ben comes out. Welcome to my nightmare, he laments. Jen questions why she went home. He says that she was too far ahead in her feelings for him and he wasn't there yet, so it wouldn't work. Emily wonders what went wrong. He says they had ups and downs but she didn't focus on themselves. These are all things that the girls knew already, no shock here. Nikki says he's the best man. She wants to know his doubts about her though. He really doesn't answer this one. He says he wish he handled Casey's  goodbye better. Jaime wishes if it doesn't work out with one of these girls he can come back to her. I think she realizes how awkward she was and why she went home, but a girls gotta try, right?

Then we show scenes we've never before seen. A bird lands on Ben, dogs bark at Emily, cows moo at Courtney and Ben gets his tribal outfit.

We see the journey with voice overs of the two women left, Lindzi and Courtney. The girls faces tell all. They are happy about Lindzi and they feel the love, but with Courtney their eyes roll and roll.

After the credits roll, we see Chris Harrison confront Jenna. I was waiting all night for this! The girls tell her what a basket case she was and we see her crying and having her fit. I hope she feels stupid, she was hysterical to watch though. Monica says do you want to share a tampon? Ahaha.

Are you excited for the finale? Do you want good girl Lindzi horse to win or bad girl we love to hate, Courtney meanie model to get the ring and the rose? It seems to me that from Courtney's speech, she CARED about Ben, maybe she was dumped? Do we know?

The Bachelor: Switzerland

We are down to the final three. Who will Ben choose? Let's find out.

First date is with Nikki. They get into the traditional Bachelor helicopter and fly to the top of a mountain. I love her, I really do.  She's so cute and open. They joke with each other and are playful. But I have a feeling he will not pick her. He asks her and she accepts the fantasy suite car. They spend the closing moments in the hot tub. Do you think he sleeps with all of them?? Would you say yes to a proposal without testing the car?

Next up is 
Lindzi. He says I love her three times. Literally. He keeps saying how he is falling in love with this girl, he loves this girl, he just loves her. They do an adrenaline date. They are repelling off a cliff. They spend some time talking and he asks her to the Fantasy suite. She wouldn't normally go, but hey its the Bachelor, so she must. He says I love Lindzi four times now.

from abc.com

Next up is Courtney. He's hesitant about how she's treated the women. She's scared of going home. She actually admits she made a mistake with the other girls and this may cost her. They take a train to another town. She cries about how she hurt the girls. Too little too late. He tells her that he's concerned. She apologizes and he is better about everything, he doesn't want to ruin his date. He offers her the Fantasy suite card and she says yes. There is a bearskin rug and everything. If they already went skinny dipping, I am pretty sure this is no exception.

from abc.com

We have a short segment where we meet Emily. She meets up with Ashley and Ali. I love both of them. LOVE. They look amazing and gorgeous. I get my answer that all the clothes are chosen by costume designers. The three of them see Titanic in 3D. They talk about advice and we learn that Emily has a young daughter named Ricky. I am excited to watch, although I wish it was one of the girls from this episode!

Bachelor Ben gets a surprise. Kacie b is back. He answers the door like holy fck. She's there for answers. She wants to know what happened between them. He explains that they are from different backgrounds and it would never work. She tells him that Courtney is the wrong choice. He's flabbergasted. He thought he laid this to rest. She is upset to say goodbye twice and she lays on the floor outside the hotel room.

from abc.com

Final decision time. I thought he would send Nikki home. But maybe after this Courtney goes. Kacie is not welcomed into this ceremony, even though Chris asks if he wants her there. He is super confused now.

Rose ceremony time...

from abc.com

Lindzi gets the first rose. I knew this. I called it. He loves her! 
Courtney gets the next and final rose. This was rough.

Nikki doesn't get one. At least Courtney hugs her goodbye. He tells her he had doubts about their relationship and She cries. She tells him she hopes he ends up happy.

They are staying in Switzerland for the final decision. Too bad next week is the girls tell all. I cannot wait to hear this! They are all going to bad mouth Courtney. And I think that Ben gets to listen in, yikes. Cannot wait!!

The Bachelor: Hometowns

Ahh the elusive hometown dates. Here is where the parents either seal the deal or ruin the whole thing. Let's see how they went.


First up is Lindzi horse. She is riding her horse and calls him boyfriend. They kiss. I'm sure we will only have four kisses, so I must kiss the Ben Kiss-o-meter adieu! They go for a carriage ride. They meet her parents. They are really fun and energetic. They carriage race and Ben and lindzi lose. He likes her parents and I do too. They seem fun and easy going and toast to welcoming him into their family.

Next up is kacie b. She had a marching band preform as she baton twirls. On the bugeski field. That's her family field. Her grandfather was a big person in town and they named it after him. She jump hugs him and kisses. Aww.  She's from a small town. Kacie's dad doesn't drink. Ben is nervous about him. They sit down for dinner and its a bit cold. Ben sits down with her dad. Its stern but honest. Seems cold. Her mom has concerns too. None of them are clicking. She doesn't want them living together if they get engaged. Her dad tells her that he would say no if Ben asked him. I see this going downhill. Will their love survive these parents?

from abc.com

Nikki is next. They are in Texas. She's super cute. She was my second fave from the beginning. They kiss. They go to get custom cowboy boots. They try on hats too. She talks about her divorce. Her parents are really nice. She says she's ready to get married again. Her dad cries about protecting her and maybe making the wrong choice before by letting her marry that man. They both cry. I cry. I love my daddy! She pulls Ben aside and tells him she's in love with him. This is such a sweet moment. Although their relationship progressed slowly, it reminds me of the same pace as Ben and Ashley.

from abc.com

Courtney is next in Arizona. She likes/loves him. Mom is skeptical. She acts so normal around her sister. She talks about skinny dipping with her. I almost like Courtney for a minute until I remember how she is with the other girls. Ben talks to her dad. He wants grand kids. Now they go on a date alone. She acts really nice. They are at a place where she could get married. She has a bowtie for Ben and paper to write vows. There is a priest. I would be freaked out. They read the vows. She says she's in love with him. They have rings. They kiss. Very sweet. Its actually a very cute idea as they drive away in an almost married car. I can see why he likes her from this, but I wish he watched the footage of how she was all season.

from abc.com

He sits down with Chris to recap. He needs to decide and get rid of one woman. I have to say that I got a spoiler before i watched this. I follow Ali on facebook and I by accident glanced her update saying who was to go. Even if I didn't see her spoiler, I may have guessed who did not get the rose. 

We are at the rose ceremony.

Courtney gets the first rose.
Lindzi gets the next one.
Nikki gets the last one.

Courtney doesn't say gbye to Kacie, Big surprise. Kacie cries. She doesn't ask why he let her go. I would. She goes quietly. That was hard I'm sure. She didn't expect this. Maybe we all didn't. She asks why she was not good enough for Ben. She curses in the limo and asks what the eff happened? Aww.

Next up is Switzerland for the girls. Who will go next?

I have to say that Ben would not have been a bachelor I would have liked on a personal level. All these adventure dates and to pick a freezing cold place and not a tropical island as the final destination, not my thing!

I hope that Nikki takes it home, but I guess Courtney may be the front runner here.

The Bachelor: Belize

Welcome to Belize.

Emily calls Courtney a shark and Lindzi gets a one one one date.
Nikki cries about it. Emily then compares Ben to cheesecake in swim trunks. No roses on the one on ones but there will be one on the group date.

Another helicopter picks them him and Lindzi up. They jump from it into the blue hole. They kiss. Number one on the Ben kiss-o-meter. Ben writes a letter in a bottle. They write a fairy tale on one side and draw them on the other. They drop it in the water.

Emily is on the next one on one. They ride bikes through town. They go diving for lobsters. It Looks so scary. They kiss. Number two.

Courtney cries and cries. She must have a bad past. She's already mourning their relationship. She says if she doesn't get a date card, she will not accept a rose from Ben. She gets the one on one. Then she gloats about it. Kacie b calls her bitch. I love her. She wants to squash Courtney like a spider.

Courtney and him are hiking. They see a Mayan temple. She tells him she wasn't going to accept a rose without this date. She says the spark was lost. He's upset. She plays this game and he falls for it. She does the pretend not to like you so you chase her game. Thy climb up to the top. They kiss number three. She says she wants to bring him home to her parents. She rants to the camera that all the other girls can pack their bags. She is so annoying. She tells Ben that she tried to be all their friends. Yeah ok! They bore her. They're vanilla. She has a lot of guy friends at home, but not girl friends. She says this and Ben wrinkles his eyebrows. He's concerned that he is dating someone nobody likes. Well he is right but too stupid to see it.

Rachel, Nikki, and Kacie go on group date. A rose is up for grabs here so they are all game. He wakes up the girls and tells them to put on a suit at 4am. They are all shaving quickly, super funny. They go out on a catamaran. They go shark diving. Rachel is so scared. She has a phobia of sharks. Rachel jumps in with Ben and spends most of her time with him. Kacie is jealous, but acts like a good sport and swims with Nikki and the sharks. 

Rachel kisses him for number four. He kisses Nikki as well for number five. Kacie kisses him as well for number six. He is on a kissing spree. She tells him she is falling in love with him. He gives Kacie the rose. Yay! I am really happy about this. I have been her fan since the first night. Courtney is not happy about this. She can see from over her balcony.

The three of them tell Ben the truth about Courtney. Nikki tells him to be cautious about Courtney. Not sure if Ben is really listening, but it would be nice if he could see what Courtney says off air.

from abc.com

They are off to cocktails. Courtney is so fake. She talks about her pina colada and how happy she is although everyone else is a bit somber. She says how Ben is not the only guy in the world. Ben doesn't want the cocktails, he has made up his mind, so they go right to roses.

He asks to speak to Courtney before he hands out the roses. He asks her if she is in it for the right reasons. She says she was not here to make friends. But she of course is here for him. I guess this is enough for him. So he lets her back in line.

from abc.com

Nikki gets one.
Lindzi gets one
Courtney gets the last one. She skips all fake and baby like. She is actually really annoying.

Rachel and Emily are going home. Rachel cries and leaves quickly. Emily leaves and Courtney says see ya wouldn't want to be ya. Did Ben miss this? Emily cries too. She wishes he didn't pick Courtney over her mostly.

Next week is hometowns and I am excited to see how these play out. I always wonder how my parents would be on a hometown.

Till then! Who is going home?

The Bachelor: Panama City, Panama

Welcome to Panama city, Panama Bachelor fans.

Kacie B. gets the one on one date card. She is so excited. Another helicopter comes to the island and she is only allowed to pack three things. She takes her stuffed monkey, candy and her mcguyver Swiss army knife. He brings matches. He then tries to open coconuts and the kiss meter hits one.

Then the group date card comes and its for Emily, Nikki, lindzi horse, kacie s, Courtney and Jaime. Blakey and Rachel get the two on one date and Blakey is so excited, but Rachel is not. And who would be?

Kacie b opens up to Ben. She talks about her eating disorder. She was bulimic and anorexic.  Ben is impressed with her and how strong she is for telling him this. He gives her the rose and they kiss again.

On to the group date. They follow these kids to a village. The girls are to put on traditional outfits.  Courtney talks and talks about how she should do as the natives do and only wears beads. Ben is wearing a loin cloth. All of the girls are so excited to see him like this. They get body paints and tattoos. Emily hates her and I agree. Courtney is just too much.  Court then writes b plus c = heart on Ben's back and they dance together as the other girls dance with each other. I have to say that Courtney is playing the game by getting close to Ben, but at the same time she should be nice to the girls. Soon maybe it will bite her in the ass. He grabs Lindzi horse and tells her how drama free she is and they kiss. Number two for Ben tonight, how high can he go?

from abc.com

Back during the group hangout, Courtney tries to get him to come to her room. I can't stand her. They kiss making it number three. Jaime talks to him as Courtney gets into the pool behind them. Ben can't concentrate.  He speaks with Emily. She gets super serious with him and then tells him that she loves the chief from earlier. He laughs and realizes how great she is. They kiss making it number four. Emily then apologizes to Courtney. I think this was really mature, but Court doesn't care. She doesn't forgive and forget and says they won't be friends. He gives the rose to lindzi and Courtney is upset.  Courtney waits for Ben by her room. She thinks she is mistreated by all the men in her life. He never shows and I give a huge smile.

Now for the dreaded two on one date. They get Latin dance lessons. Rachel is awkward and Blakey is having more chemistry with him. Blakely is obviously using her sexuality to get further in this game. Ben and Rachel have a chat and they kiss making it Number five. Blakey and him talk and she cries. She made him a scrapbook thing about her journey here and they kiss to make it   number six  Rachel gets the rose in the end. Blakey runs off. He tries to catch her to tell her that They aren't far enough along. She cries and cries as a A lonely cat walks by and cries. Are they comparing Blakely to a cat?

Chris Harrison walks in. He grabs Casey S. and tells her they need to talk.  He tells her he heard she has a boyfriend, someone back home that she is in love with. They go to knock on Ben's door. She tells him about her ex and how she was in love with him. Ben breaks it off with her and she is sent home and She cries.  I have to say this was an ambush.

It's cocktail party time.  He kisses lindzi again.  Then  Jaime hits on him.  She tries to make her move and She kisses him then She straddles him.  He is shocked. They kiss again. She tells him how he should be kissing, which no guy likes. However, she becomes Number seven. I think this is the most so far this season. They are super awkward and I feel that She's totally going home.

from abc.com

It's Rose time....
Lindzi horse
Rachel teeth
kacie b already have one
Nikki cute
Courtney model
Emily doctor rapper all get one 

Jaime goes home and I'm not surprised. She cries and cries, but too bad.

Next they are off to Belize.

I think that Rachel or Emily will be the next one to go home, what about you?

The Bachelor: Puerto Rico

They are off to Puerto rico (but don't worry Courtney, you have already been there) I think it is ironic how Courtney wears a "be nice" t-shirt.

Nicki gets the one on one date card and she is in my top two. They see a helicopter which is like the bachelor trademark. They fly to old San Juan and it starts pouring.So they buy authentic puerto rican clothes as he is in all white with a hat. Nicki opens up to him and tells him that she is divorced and Ben gives her the rose and they kiss. Kiss meter just hit one. How many more girls can Ben kiss tonight?

from abc.com

Time for the Group date. It's for Lindzi, Courtney, Jennifer, kacie b, Emily ,Rachel ,kacie s ,Jaime and blakely. They are going to play baseball.  Chris tells them that they will be split into two teams to play. The winning team goes on a evening group date with Ben and the losing team goes home. One woman will play for both teams as the MVP and she automatically gets to go. Its lindzi horse. Blue team is Emily, blakely, Rachel and Jennifer.  And the red team is two kacies, Courtney and Jaime. Courtney says who knew strippers could play baseball about blakely. Hysterical! These girls are desperate to win time with Ben. Maybe a bit too desperate. Jennifer strikes out and the red team wins. Blakely cries and cries and cries.

from abc.com

The winning team gets to go to a luau with Ben. Ben tells kacie B. that all his relationships didn't love him back. He takes her for a walk with the rose and gives it to her. She accepts and they kiss. Two on the kiss Ben-O-meter.

Courtney takes him for a walk and they walk on the beach. They kiss for number three. She offers him the chance to skinny dipping and he is weary of the idea of skinny dipping in the ocean.

Elyse is going on her one on one date. She is super excited to spend time with Ben. All she can talk about is wanting to be in love, not WITH Ben per say, but in love in general. They are going on a yacht. She tells him that she gave up a lot to be here. She quit her job, she missed her best friend's wedding. They decide to jump off and they kiss for Number four. They have a dinner on the beach and he is wearing a tux. He toasts to the "Best dressed couple on the beach". I don't think he is feeling her. I have started to be able to tell Ben's faces. He breaks it off with her. His relationship with her is not far enough. He cannot give her the rose. He's wearing the shortest pants ever. She leaves crying wondering what she did wrong.

The girls see Elyse's suitcase get taken away. Courtney starts her rant and says "Its bittersweet. Bitter for Elyse and sweet for her" and then ends with "Blew my panties off". Courtney shut up. She then decides to cheat in this game. She goes to his room with a nightcap. Now she tries to go skinny dipping with him and after his day he says why not. They strip and they kiss and he is in trouble. So they go in nude!

from abc.com

Its the cocktail party.  He kisses Jennifer red hair and that is number 5. Him and blakely kiss as well after she opens up for number 6. He kisses lindzi as well. Wow, this is the most as we hit number 7. Emily tells him first that she is over the Courtney thing and then that Courtney is a weirdo. He's not happy. She should really shut up. He tells her to drop it and then to be careful. She really starts to worry now. Seriously girl, get your head in the game.

It's Rose ceremony time:

Lindzi horse
Jaime. Who is she? Maybe the next date?
Rachel teeth
Courtney
Casey s. Who is she? Next date?
Blakely
Emily. What?? Are they keeping her on for drama value?

Who doesn't get the rose, well Jennifer? But they kissed, I am super confused. Ben just threw me for a curveball.

They are off to panama city.

Do you think he made the right choice?

The Bachelor: Utah

They are off to Utah. Let's see how many girls he can kiss this episode.

The first one on one is with Rachel tooth. Kacie B is too emotional about it. She doesn't understand why he has to date these other girls. The date starts in a helicopter where he kisses her and then they are off to a rowboat. Kiss Count ONE. Why do all the girls love Ben? It seems like they are all in LOVE with him already. They actually have an awkward conversation with nothing to say to one another. They even talk about crows feet and beaver dams. Um weird. Rachel gives him a little speech about not being able to open up and he then gives her the rose. I dont agree at all. I think he should have cut her loose.

The girls get the group date card and Courtney the bitch rants about it. The
group date is out on horses. Lindzi horse of course loves this. They then go fly fishing. They are given these funny overalls and wellies. Courtney weighs in and says kacie b is annoying. She decides to steal some time with Ben. Courtney catches the only fish and then kisses him making everyone jealous. He then spends some time with kacie s and Nikki interrupts.  He begins holding hands with her and of course they kiss. Two for the night. Samantha interrupts. She begs him for a one on one date. She mocks him about his opinions on group dates.  And he tells her she is highly emotional. Her face drops. She's pushy and she laughs at him. So then he tells her it won't go further. He ends it then and she leaves crying her eyes out.

from abc.com

Jennifer the accountant with the red hair gets the next one on one.

Kacie b gets to go back to his room for some quiet time and they kiss. Number 3 on the Ben Kiss-o-meter. He really does like her. He tells the camera she could be trouble for him as he wishes he could fast forward through this whole process. Then Courtney sits with him and hee kisses her Welcome, number 4. She tells him she can't handle this and he faith is slipping. SMART. He gives Courtney the rose. She starts saying WINNING.

Jennifer's date is super scary. She has to climb down a crater and then hang there until Ben cuts them lose. Then they must drop into the water. They kiss. Number five on the kiss list. They have dinner outside by a fire.  Its pouring so they run for cover. He gives her the rose and they kiss again. They then go to a clay walker concert. I have never heard of him, but they dance and she thinks its so magical.

from abc.com

The girls are back at the house, doing their nails and they're dying each others hair. Weird. Right? You don't think one of them thought about making their hair blue (Bride wars anyone?)

It's Cocktail party time. Emily takes her alone time with Ben and tries to warn him about Courtney, but he ignores it. Kacie S. tells Emily that her bestie court is not fake. I am starting to think that Court is the bentley of this season. I know she is not saying bad things about Ben behind his back like Bentley did to Ashley, but she is fake for sure. Kacie S then tells court what emily had said and Courtney is all fired up. She talks about wanting to rip her head off.

Nicki kisses him in the snow during her alone time. Courtney laughs at emily and then confronts her. She tells her that it is a "Good look emily"and then she chants "Winning" and she is very Charlie Sheen-ish.

from abc.com

It's time for the Roses....

1. Lindzi horse
2. Jamie the doc, who has not had any time with him
3. Nicki the cutie and one of my faves
4. Kacie b, still my number one fave!
5. Elyse the trainer, has not spent time with him either
6. Blakely
7. Kacie s, needs to spend time with him too
6. The final rose goes to emily and Courtney dies a little bit inside. She was hoping that he would send Emily home.

Monica doesn't get a rose and she is sent home. I have to think that She mustve known since she never made any attempts to spend time with him. She cries fakely saying she had feelings and rides off.

Ben announces that they are off to puerto rico and the girls are about to cheer and toast until Bently Courtney ruins it by saying she's been, so Ben says well we are going again!

What are your thoughts about Courtney? Fake or fake to the girls only? Who are you rooting for?

Bachelor - Week 3

Ben, Ben, Ben. Oh the tangled webs we weave. This episode threw us for a curve ball for sure. Dig in...

The girls and Ben are in San fran where Ben meets his sister julia.

Emily the disease doc is date number one.
Both are afraid of heights but choose to climb to the top of bay bridge and have to keep going only using caraveeners. I'm scared for them. So he kissed her to quell her fears and they scream. Super cute. They make it and have a romantic dinner under the bridge. He gives her the rose and they kiss again. Cue cheesy fireworks show. Kiss count 1.

The Group date is snow skiing. They closed down a street in the town and put fake snow on it. They are skiing in bathing suits. Some of the girls bite it, especially kacie b. She is super cute as she falls and gets back up. He takes them to a bar with pineapple drinks afterwards. He takes some private time with Rachel weird front tooth and kisses her. Kissing count is at two. Kaci b is feeling the heat. She looks gorgeous as they sneak out. They kiss also. Three ladies tonite.  Rachel gets the rose on the group date.

Next date card is for Brittany grandma. She gets this diamond key necklace from Neil lane. Lindzi horse is upset, she really wants some QT with Ben. Brit didn't seem so happy to go. She is thinking she shouldn't go on the date. She then tells Emily she should go home. Her heart isn't in it. She goes to find Ben to tell him she's leaving. It puts him down a notch. He starts to realize how real this game is getting.

Now lindzi horse gets the date by default. Although she is last picked it doesn't phase her. She's super excited and sweet. They ride a trolley and get ice-cream. They go to city hall. The lights turn on and Matt nathanson is playing for them as they dance. They kiss. Number four. Ben u slut. They go to a speakeasy with a secret password and all. Bookshelves open new rooms. She gets the rose. They play the piano together. He plays this years love by David Grey, such an amazing song.

We see clips of a Mysterious woman is driving to Ben and on the phone with Chris Harrison.

The Girls are at the cocktail party and Jennifer accountant with Ariel the Mermaid hair kisses him. Girl number 5 on the kiss-ometer. Ben is really taking advantage here of how many women want to kiss him. Shauntel who vied for brads affection is back for Ben.  Courtney spews her gems of wisdom and nastiness and then Courtney kisses him. 6 girls now. She's super fake. She needs to go.

from abc.com

Shawntel strolls through and all the girls are like who's that girl? Ben's like holy shit. One girl screams "Scram bitch". He is in shock. The girls attack her. Courtney is pissed and storms off and then cries. She says that if Shawntel gets a rose, she is out of here. Its too real for this model.

Rose ceremony....

Roses go to:
Courtney the model after she spews a speech about this being hard after "what's her butt" arrived
Kaci b. - my personal Fave
Elyse the trainer
Jaime the nurse
Jennifer the accountant
Casey s. whom I Don't know still!
Blakely, fakely
Monica the bully, which I still don't get why she is still here
Nikki the cutie crier
Samantha whom I also don't know
Erica the lawyer passes out before final rose. She collapses, but She's ok, however, this didn't win her safety.
He makes a speech how he will not give anyone the last rose.

Erica the fainter and Jaclyn big nose are out and so is shawntel the crasher. The girls rejoice and taunt her as she leaves. He walks her out. I believe he made a very honorable decision. Shawntel is crushed and starts rambling about how stupid she looks and she does and buh bye!

Next up is Park City, Utah....

What other curves will we be thrown?

The Bachelor - Week 2

Ready for group dates, one-on-ones, roses and catty girls? CHECK. Being that I have never watched a full season of the bachelor and only the bachelorette, I was not ready for the amount of claws that come out between these girls.

Ben takes all of the girls to Sonoma, his hometown, for the next round of dates. He gives a one-on-one date card to my fave Kacie B. He takes her to stroll around his hometown and they go shopping in a toy store where she buys a baton and tells him her deepest secret, that she was a baton twirler. So innocent! He then takes her to dinner and they have a really great time. She is real, down to earth and gorgeous. But the date, is not over yet. He takes her to a movie theatre where he set up a slide show of her when she was a baby and videos of her and her dad. Sweet. But, then they show Ben's baby photos and videos of him and his dad. Tears are now flowing down my cheeks. How could they not? Anytime there are daddies or deaths, my eyes well up like faucets. They kiss, and Ben is not shy, he kisses almost anything that walks. She gets a rose.

Then its time for a group date. Ben takes them to the park where they are to audition for a play written by the children in the town. Its about a prince in bachelorville and there are hamsters, hippies, princesses, wizards and a gingerbread man. Blakely, one of the more aggressive girls, is wearing this gingham romper that shoes off her twins.


from abc.com

What do you get when you cross a hooker with a gingerbread man? BLAKELY - I died!

Blakley gets the rose for that date, because she was being fake. But I guess in this show that is how you have to win. The other girls are peeved and jealous. A mix of both. However, Ben kisses her and Jennifer on this date. The tally is three so far.

He gives a single date card to model Courtney. How does that taste coming out of your mouth? Personally, I don't think she is all that pretty. They go on a date with his cute dog Scotch. Love the name and love that he has a dog. (We have a pug) They try to make Scotch howl and I love it. He has a heart to heart with her over dinner and she goes on to say that she has never found someone she loves because she is so picky and Ben falls for it. He gives her a rose and then kisses her too. Tally up to four now! Ben, you stud!

On to the the other girls who didn't get to spend time with Ben. Every time he goes to talk to one of them, Blakely comes in and steals time with him. He literally has to tell her he will be back. I mean come on. Even this pissed me off. Why do you need more time with him when you just got a rose? Rude and selfish. I agree with the other girls here. She gets so upset, that she is crawled into a ball in the corner of the luggage room where Ben finds her. Jenna tells Ben she is not like a girl. Which is super weird. She is so freaking awkward! Jenna is crying yet again, and Ben finds her in a bed sobbing. Courtney is cray cray. Lindsi horse girl tells Ben she wears mud for makeup.

Rose ceremony ahead. And the roses go to....

Jennifer hot tub
Emily rapper
Elyse trainer
Jaclyn big nose green sparkle
Erica don't know
Rachel weird tooth
Lindsi horse and mud
Nikki second fave
Other kaci don't know
Samantha hates blakely
Monica bully don't know why
Jamie nurse
Brittany grandma

Jenna gets booted and so does mom Shawn. Bye bye Jenna, as she cries off the screen. She is a hot mess. And she wonders why nobody loves her? Psh. Obvi!

The Bachelor - Ben Flajnik

Since I have such an aficionado for the last two seasons of the Bachelorette I watched, I decided to watch this season of the Bachelor. Last season Ben F proposed to Ashley and she turned him down. My heart broke for Ben, although I knew the entire time she would pick JP. (Bald, Jewish, Sexy, who wouldn't?) So when he was dubbed the new bachelor, I knew I had to watch his journey to find love.

from abc.com

Where to begin? Let's start with the girls who came out of the limo and were vying for Ben's heart. Jenna, the blogger was super awkward. She goes into saying how she gets anxiety and you can see it all over her face. She tells Ben she is nervous and throughout the episode she has a fight with another girl and spends the rest of the night crying in the bathroom.


from abc.com


There was a girl from Canada who's last name was Bacon, she made ben taste her. Ew. There was a Lawyer who told Ben he was guilty of being sexy. There was a disease doc who made him disinfect her and get the first kiss of the night. Another who rapped, a Pageant girl who wore a sash, a Girl who eats cow balls, one with a Large hat.

Then a 72yr old with crutches named Sheryl gets out of the limo and Ben's face drops. She actually brought granddaughter Brittany. Good move! Can't dump the girl with the grandma.  Lindsey who's British who said things in different languages like Japanese and read poem, a  Girl walked right past him then a Girl rode in on horse. She ended up getting the first impression rose. Monica, the girl who Jenna has issues with ends up flirting with another girl named Blakely. She tells her she is amazing and will be in her life forever, barf. Very uncomfortable scene.

I have to say the girls are SUPER bitchy. They don't have anything nice to say about anyone.

 So far I like kaycie in glitter dress or nikki with the yellow and green dress.

Kacie

The rose ceremony comes along and here are the results.

Lindzi first impression rose
Jaime the nurse
Rachel red dress
Blakely gay
Emily rapper hygiene
Kacy b. fave glitter
Kacy s don't know
Brittany grandma
Erica guilty
Shawn mother
Nikki second fave
Jennifer red hair
Elyse trainer
Samantha sash
Courtney model
Jaclyn don't know
Monica bully

and finally, Jenna the cryer. Everyone is in shock that she got one.

Well Ben, you have lots in store for you. The previews show a stranger coming in and the girls are upset. They also get really catty and there is a ton of crying.

I CANNOT wait to see how this season pans out.

On a sadder note, Bachelorette Ali and Roberto broke it off. I hope that Ashley and JP make it! Don't you?

Who do you want Ben to pick?
