the fun of watching the Bachelor
first off, let me say i do not take any reality show seriously. I do enjoy the genre. Some are fun, and i liken them to a sporting event, where i handicap the contestants who are most likely to win. I also like to put myself in the cast members shoes and think who would i align with, who would i pick, who would i fight, who would be good or evil to me if i were on the show.
I have watched the Bachelor for years. its best to record the show, watching it later, where you can get through the endless commercials and promos. Get right to the action.
This years edition stars an airline pilot named Jake. I think hes a private pilot for high paying corporate types, not the guy flying 300 people from Chicago to L.A. for United or American. You should see how hot the flight attendants are on these corporate flights.
So Jake is portrayed as a nice guy but one who always gets dumped by girls before the relationship develops, like he goes out with beautiful girls, who dont appreciate a nice guy who seems "perfect" My friend Nae told me her GF dated him once for a while, and he dumped her, said he was a "prick" so take it for what its worth, course that girl wasnt the smartest most sophisticated girl in all of Texas.
Now there are enough crazy girls to keep it entertaining this year.
theres Michelle, a 25 year old from Anaheim, close to our town, who wants to get married and have kids so soon. "its MY turn" she says. apparently her sisters and friends are having kids and husbands and Michelle who has seen jake on TV before, has picked him. Of course, no matter she hasnt any chemistry or spark at all with him, she can WILL him to love her! He picks up on her desperation and obsessive tendencies, and when she forces a first kiss, then acts diva, saying a kiss on the lips is "all i get!?" then threatens to walk out on the show and go home. Jake correctly lets the door hit her on the ass on her way out.
Vienna is the 23 year old spoiled daddys girl princess who cannot play nice with others. the good 'ol i am not here to make friends, but for Jake! act. She fails to befriend any other girl out of the 25 girls because she is fake, a pagaent wannabe who is friendly outgoing bossomy but really has no real world connection. if he were to choose her at the finale, i would give them 3 months top in the real world.
Not that whomever he chooses will be his wife, theres small chances that he will find a lifelong partner in this condensed speedup high pressure televised dating show fishtank.
I like this girl Elizabeth but she gets sent home for being too clever. she withholds kissing till she gets much further down the road. Jake who is sensitive to being dumped feels teased, and one of the most confident and intelligent, striking women goes home well before theres less than 9 girls left.
so the final 5 show was this week. and when it gets down to five, it gets less fun, since there are fewer crazies (save Vienna) and more earnest and sweet dates around.
your final five are Tenley, a former Disneyland princess who is all sugar and light. very much your cute girl next door. she has been hurt before as her ex husband cheated on her and dumped her. could she have esteem issues despite her beauty?
she is sweet and charming to Jake who laps it up like pollen to a bee. He cannot resist her charms. she has a shot at your finale where Jake will choose from two women.
Ominous signs of the next episode where theres no rose ceremony since one girl, not shown goes home, for some unknown reason, and i immediately thought of Tenley, does her nerves get the best of her? This is also after each girl brings Jake over to their hometowns to meet the folks!
Ali is a strong 25 year old advertising marketing woman of Massachussetts who now lives in San Francisco, where the girls and Jake just happen to be for four days of dating! she gets home court advantage of showing Jake around her neighborhood an city on a date. they have chemistry, Jake speaks of her in comfortable and intimate tones. she has a real great shot at the finale, unless i am completely duped by genius editing on the producers. this girl is a good match for him long term and he would be wise to pick her. she has smarts, her head is screwed on straight, and she stands up for herself. Ali is surprisingly normal for a girl on a reality show.
I find myself rooting for Ali and Tenley to keep moving onto the next show.
Gia is the one hardest to figure out. she is a 25 yr old swimsuit model (former dancer) who is from NYC. shes beautiful, but seems shy and sweet. they had one great date a one on one in a vineyard. then this week a two woman date with Vienna! ugh! She and Jake both talked about her fading more into the background. a step back even by jakes estimation. yet despite Viennas domineering presence, Gia got the kissing time in the back of the barrel rooms. lots of making out very passionate stuff. So she was sneaky in the end. Vienna can really annoy you with her Jake is my boyfriend so I am ignoring the other girl on the date attitude.
Corrie is sweet, and we discover, a virgin saving herself for marriage. Jake has always wanted to give her a chance, but as this weeks show starts its clear she is way way behind the other four girls in the bond and connection she has formed with Jake. Her date was sweet, only a lil sad in a rowboat on a lake where she is leaning in for a kiss, waiting on Jake to kiss her, but it doesnt come then but much later when they have dinner and talk. Jake likes her but she was too far behind, and since none of the other four girls make a huge mistake, she has little chance to survive a rose ceremony and doesnt.
At this point, its hard to figure which girls Jake will take home to meet his parents or on the final dream dates. I think Ali and Tenley are the leading two, but Vienna is there, and no mistaking his connection to her. Despite the fact that she goes down to his bedroom at the Winery Castle leaving Gia alone in their room was over the top aggression, he still likes her enough to keep her around, even taking her to a romantic view of the city in the hotel where they hold the rose ceremony the last night.
I can see a final two of Ali and Vienna, Tenley and Vienna, or Ali and Tenley. Gia is by no means out of it, but i can see Jake feeling closer to the other three girls. If Tenley bows out it opens a chance for Gia to be one of the last two girls he picks. at this point, who he is going to give the final rose on the final show, is a mystery to me. I would pick Ali, but thats my preference, as i dont like Vienna much at all. Yet it wouldnt shock me if he chose Vienna. Thats his taste, and there's no accounting for that.
