The Bachelorette Recap: Week 1

I never really talk about how I watch The Bachelor and The Bachelorette, mainly because I used to be one of those people who judged the women who watched this crap. But for some reason (probably my blog and twitter friends), I decided to start watching a few seasons ago. Even though I realize it's stupid and unrealistic, I can't help but enjoy the mind numbing drama. :)


I've decided that I'm going to try to start blogging my thoughts as I watch the episodes each week.

This seasons Bachelorette is Desiree...

  • The recap of her and Sean reminded me just how sad it was when she was saying goodbye to him. I liked that she said she just wants to make someone happy.
  • What a lucky girl driving that adorable cute blue convertible!
  • I don't think they've ever showed the Bachelorette out and about the town enjoying the area by themselves! How many outfit changes was that? 4?
.
  • Watching the guys backgrounds always makes me do facepalms and shake my head.
  • Woah...I was just asking Michael how long the sign spinners have been around and now this guy is saying he is the man behind it and it was started a couple years ago. *Twilight Zone Tune*
  • Gotta love awkward introductions! I love when people do stupid things to stand out.
  • OMG. Seriously, dude? You gave her a "fantasy suite key" as your "hello"? What a jerk!
  • Abs guy...gag. Plus it looks like his creepy face was Photoshopped on someone else's body.
  • The tie his shoe/proposal fake out was funny.
  • Okay seriously? The guy with the little boy was too adorable!
  • Hashtag guy is #annoying.
  • Ben gets the first rose! Good choice, Des. (He's the one with the kid.)
  • An impromptu soccer game in suites? Only on this show. Only to impress a girl!
  • Drew seems cute.
  • Again with the fantasy suite guy? So glad she gave him the boot.
  • Why did she keep the creepy shirtless guy?
Overall thoughts? I like Desiree and so far I agree with the weirdos she sent home but I kind of wish she had sent more of them home that she obviously wasn't into. Then again, I always think this about the beginning. If I were the Bachelorette I would probably send home a ton of guys in the first two episodes and then really get to know the rest of them better. Why waste time on the losers? Haha! Hey, I got married at 20 for a reason. No games here! I knew what I wanted and went for it.

Lol love this. I like the shirtless guy ;). You have to watch burning love on yahoo. It's a Ben stiller produced show making fun of bachelor and bachelorette. They just did one with a guy who had a son and we were cracking up at it and now this guy. Who says their kid is their everything and their best friend? I thought it was a little much. Who just has a kid with their friend too? That's weird.

Since I dont watch this show but am always curious about it, this is really helpful.

Love the gif's, especially the one of her falling on her bum; that's funny. Is it wrong of me to hate her just a little bit for nto even looking ugly while falling? Glad she kept the dude with the cute kid around.

Ow, that fall looks like it hurt! And I've only watched 1 season of this show before but all my twitter friends appear to watch it so maybe I need to start again!

I only started watching a couple years ago too. I'm not a drama person but for some reason it's really entertaining to watch other people's drama. Ha! And I like Ben but from what it showed for later on in the season, I don't know how I feel about him. But they always portray people incorrectly so that you keep watching to find out the truth. And I agree with Meagan, you should watch Burning Love, pretty hilarious. I kept imagining moments from it because it really captures the cliches etc. So funny.

I'm glad you're going to be writing about the Bachelorette. This will be so fun.

Haha I don't watch but I knew it started by my twitter feed blowing up! I'll just come here for all my news :)

Love this show but the guys are a bunch of weirdos! I totally agree with your descriptions of them. Fantasy suite guy was super creepy!

Unknown said...

Ha, I haven't ever watched either show but I actually thought about it this time around, looks like I just might have to!

I haven't watched the episode yet so i need to get on that, but I hope I like Des, I was honestly a little disappointed they picked her, I thought she was a tad boring!

I watch it for the drama, it's entertaining :)
I'm pretty envious of the super cute baby blue Bentley she got to drive. At least I think it was a Bentley, hah, I can't remember.
Some of the introductions were so awkward!
Jonathan was a total creeper, so glad she sent him home asap.
I teared up when Ben brought his little boy, how cute!
I am a fan of Drew.
Not that you needed to know my opinions, ha ha! :D
