Well I am ashamed to admit that I am hooked on the Batchelor programme - so was just wondering who else watched it and what you thought of the women and who you think should win?

Hmm yes kiwigal, please don't say anything more!!!
I am such a sucker for this series - I didn't realise it was on again so watched last night's but and then went and watched episode #1 after that. Am about to watch episode #2 now. Just want to see what all the drama is that they refer to! Last season was fantastic! I couldn't believe the twist at the end with Jason & Molly! After only watching a little, my favourites are Tenley & Gia, but that will probably change! ------------- http://lilypie.com">  http://lilypie.com">

I have to say now that I know what happens I am a bit bummed and my heart's not in it anymore.
My favourites are Tenley and Gia too. I don't like Vienna - at first I thought they were being a bit mean to her ganging up on her but she is really thoughtless and immature and playing games - reminds me of Paris Hilton or something. Can't believe he sent the sweet brunette home instead of Vienna! The whole Jason/Molly thing was great! I guess I'll keep watching to see who he picks but not exactly romantic knowing what happened now - I guess my fault for bringing this up in a forum!!! Hoped to have a good gossip about all the ladies with people who were as hooked as me hehe |

Just try and forget about it - I saw a glimpse of some drama on E News but quickly turned it off! And you never know, he might have picked someone we didn't want to win and then might end up with someone else, so could be a happy ending after all hehe  ------------- http://lilypie.com"> http://lilypie.com">

I love the bachelor too My fav was Ali but I have really gone off her cos she seems so bitchy! so now my fav is Tenley... I am so glad he sent Ashleigh home - she annoyed me so much last night when she had nothing to say to him at all but was just all over him - was weird! ------------- mum to 3 lovely girls :D |

Not sure who I would pick yet, I had a feeling he would send home Ella (thinks that's he name) as I don't think he wants someone with a kid already & I wondered if Gia saying she wants to adopt a baby from China will put him off...
Man they don't like Vienna & he knows it so wonder if he really likes her or if she is still there for the ratings factor. He seams to flick them off fast & acts so hard done by when they turn out to be not right for him...in his eyes... He is good looking, a pilot, has money so surely he can pull without a problem....wonder what is wrong with him, ha ha....roll on next Friday...love it

Yeah I thought he didn't look that impressed about Gia's wanting to adopt thing and sent Ella home because she had a kid. If she didn't, surely he would have thought she was hot because she really had the whole package going IMO.
Is Ali the one he had the first one-on-one with? I liked her too until she got so horrible towards Vienna and did a big sulk about her and said she was going to basically tell him off if he picked her. |

Yeah I thought Ella was gorgeous & the whole package.
I liked Ali at first but now think she is more into showing her feeling than looking like a good catch. It must be hard for them, cause I would not be happy if the guy I was after was kissing & carrying on with over woman...unless I liked being on TV more that is. |

It seem like there is s huge pack mentality against Vienna.... an interesting watch that is for sure.
I agree that Ashleigh was a bit weird last night. I think Tenley is sweet but maybe easily led by the other girls.... Will be interesting.... I googled to get more info on Jake and the whole result was plastered there on the results so don't do that! Spoilt it a bit but I am still enjoying it. ------------- http://lilypie.com">  http://lilypie.com">

I love the show but always find out who wins (or not) first because i cant stand the suspense! We had a family dinner last night and had a big talk to my BIL about it (he loves it too)
I like Ali and Tenley, she does some reporting on E now and seems like a sweet girl. Everything else i want to write i cant until the end -------------  Angel Baby Aug '12, Feb '13 |

I have a love/hate relationship with that show. It's so cheesy and I hated how that girl got kicked off for hooking up with one of the staff when Jake was off hooking up with half the girls, double standards much??
They had who he picked on entertainment today so I wasn't terribly impressed finding that out. I do know one of the girls is the next bachelorette which is always better. |

| I honestly think that generally the Bachelorette works better because women are meant to be chased by men not the other way around!!! But I don't know if the stats back me up and I'm not gonna look it up on google coz then I'll know the ending. |

Yep it is a bit cheezy but I love it anyway!
It was Rozyln who hooked up with one of the staff members from the show. It is kinda double standards but the girls there for the show know that he is dating other women and it is all part of the game, Rozyln did it behind his back & wasn't honest about it I guess. I could never be one of those girls though, knowing he was kissing someone else just minutes or hours before - I wouldn't have lasted the first day! ------------- http://lilypie.com"> http://lilypie.com">

Yip quietly addicted as well!
At this point i like Tenly. As others have said i did originally like Ali but the more i see of her and how she is handling the Vienna thing the less i like her! ------------- http://lilypie.com" rel="nofollow">  http://lilypie.com" rel="nofollow">

Another Bachelor addict here
Like some of you said, Ali was my favourite. When they had the one on one date they just seemed so perfect together, but since seeing how she has handled the whole Vienna situation I think her attitude and maturity leaves alot to be desired. At this point I'm hoping for Gia but that may change on Friday - You never know with this show! I wish we got the Bachelorette in NZ, I really liked Gillian from the last series that Jason sent home that ended up as the Bachelorette. I think she found love on her show ? (I won't google - don't want to spoil any surprises!) The show would be the most amazing psyc study, it's incredible what people will do for 'love', but surely all the women on the show can't really think he's that incredible ? I mean, he seems like a nice guy but come on - that many women can't feel the same about one guy right? ------------- http://lilypie.com" rel="nofollow">  Two Precious Angel Babies 2010 / 2011

I made the mistake of watching the Emmys last night and they showed a clip from it with the winner, so annoying! Ah well i still love it enough to watch it but if you dont want to know stay away from E channel!
Ignoring all that i am a Gia fan, i think she is so pretty, i also think Tenley is so sweet, and i really really cant stand Vienna (just to be different  )
Princess Bubs - Gillian did find someone on her show who she is still together with, i think the Bachelorette has probably got a better track record than the Bachelor in regards to the couple staying together. ------------- http://lilypie.com" rel="nofollow">

If you are as sad as me then you will watch a youtube vid of Vienna and Jake AFTER they broke up 6 months later. They are interviewed and it gets nasty. I feel sorry for Vienna now after not liking her for so long!! Go on , google it!! ------------- http://lilypie.com">

I didn't like Vienna from the start and then going to the tabloids about their relationship it is just wrong. I think what they had was only physical as they couldn't keep their hands off each other but no deep and meaningful conversation. |
Posted By: jazzy
Date Posted: 02 October 2010 at 3:25pm
I read that she was saying she was fed up because he was not having a physical relationship with her & he was trying to get in to acting & she just sat in the appt in LA waiting for him....I know that not many of these end in happy ever after but it makes me wonder how many guys are in it for love or fame...I never liked her before & I think they totally made her out to be disliked & wonder how much they cut out.... |
