Last night’s episode of The Bachelorette took us on a whirlwind trip across the country so DeAnna could see the boys on their hometurf.For the most part, everyone stayed true to form.

Jesse met DeAnna in Breckenridge CO and took her snowboarding. He is moving his relationship with DeAnna along at a snail’s pace kissing her only once so far. In the preview for next week’s episode, it looks like he won’t spend the night in a fantasy sweet with her unless he meets her dad first. Chivalry is great and all but this is a dating reality show. This just in Jesse: The rest of the boys are putting out.

Next we went to Dallas to ride motorcycles with Jeremy. He was still stiff and surprisingly reserved. A multiple choice for you:

The most awkward part of Jeremy’s hometown date was:

a. When his brother’s gave DeAnna the fifth degree

b. When he read the journal entry he wrote the day before his mother’s death

c. When all anyone could talk about over dinner was dead parents

d. All of the above Read More »

Last night’s episode was pretty telling. Fred, Robert and Brian were sent packing and no one was surprised. Today, I’m handing out roses for the best WTF moments of the night.

The Rose for using grave digging as a positive and negative experience – Sean

In regards to writing and performing a song for DeAnna he said “I’d rather be digging my own grave than what I’m about to do right now.” Later, after winning the stock car racing challenge he said, “Bury me now. Dig my grave, because I’m a happy man.”

It probably wasn’t even a good idea to pack your Home Wrecker shirt dude. It is not shocking you were sent home tonight. Read More »

The Bachelorette returned last night with a two-hour premiere.

Our bachleorette is 26-year-old Real-estate agent, and (as host Chris Harrison reminds us) America’s sweetheart DeAnna Pappas. After she was left heartbroken by former Season 11 Bachelor Brad Womack, Deanna is optimistic about finding her true love among a mansion full of suitors.

Tonight the Bachelorette had the difficult but enviable task of getting to know 25 attractive men. The guys had different strategies and some proved more successful than others in winning this Southern Belle’s heart. Some did their homework, others tried seducing DeAnna with their chiseled physiques and spiky hair, some did outlandish things (really Paul? Jumping in a chilly pool?) while others were shy and quiet, so quiet they were introduced and we never heard from them again.

After some soul searching and pensive gazes into the camera, DeAnna emerged with her final 15 suitors. Here are my standouts.

Richard: He gave her a Herkimer diamond, and he seems sincere. Plus he’s a teacher, so I’m hoping he’ll keep it classy and not get into too much drama with the other contestants since his students will inevitably be tuning in.

Graham: DeAnna said his looks are just her type, plus they were both bartenders. What’s pushing Graham over the top? He is starting a non-profit organization. Swoon! Read More »
