Contrived, ridiculous, predictable, but most of all, boring. Those are the words that best describe this week's episode of the Bachelorette. Sorry that it took me so long to write a review, but seriously, because this show has reached new lows of superficiality, I was having a hard time coming up with anything meaningful to review. But the show must go on, right ? Rather than rehash the entire snooze fest this week, what I will do instead is focus on two of the most interesting parts of the show. (if there were any)
Lets start with the contrived nonsense between Jillian and her new found love "Ed". I don't know about you, but I barely remember this guy Ed from previous episodes. Oh sure, he was part of the show, but never was this knucklehead shown to be in a deep relationship with Jillian...until this week. As you probably know by now, Ed was told by his employer back in Chicago to either come back to work, or find a new job. ABC played this up as a heartbreaking conflict that Ed needed to resolve....a conflict so deep and emotional that Ed needed days to figure it out. Hey douchebag, if the choice is between a stable job that pays good money versus a bimbo, I'll take the job every time. Yet ABC, thinking that the viewers are even more stupid than Jillian and Ed, played this thing up as if it were a serious issue. What makes me even more annoyed is the fact that Jillian was hurt that poor ole Ed decided to go back to Chicago instead of staying with her. Is she serious ? Or is this just another scripted act by the ABC producers to create drama ? If Jillian was serious, then I have even less respect for her than I did before, (which was very little) This little tramp hardly even knows Ed, yet she wants him to give up his job just for her ? Hell, he isn't even her boyfriend yet....give me a break...
That leads to my next annoyance...the one on one date between Jillian and Michael. I should state from the start that I think Michael is the most annoying dude on the show this year, or any fucking year ! Break dancer ? This retard should spend more time getting his GED and less time hitting on chicks he has no chance of getting. (Even if the chick is someone as mediocre as Jillian) It was obvious that during the dinner date these two had absolutely NO chemistry. It was almost as if Jillian was interviewing Michael for a job when asking him what he wants to do with his life, what type of woman he likes, and whether he was on the show for the right reasons. Hey Michael, I have some advice for you sport...kill yourself ! Comprende?
In conclusion, I'm having more and more respect for Wes...because if it's true that he is on the show only to promote his CD, then he is definitely on the show for the right reason, because promoting his CD is a far more noble cause than falling in love with a trollop.
The victims, excuse me, the guys making this cut this week are...
Jesse, Kip, Reid, Robby, Michael, Wes, Jake, Tanner.

Do you seriously have to be so rude about everything and everyone on the show? If you find it ridiculous, predictable, and boring, why the heck are you watching it and then writing about it on a blog? Find something better to do with your time.
ReplyDeleteThe show is ridiculous and boring but for some reason or other we just keep watching. There must be some interest in seeing who ends up at the end. I agree with all the comments about Jillian and the show - but I do keep watching!
ReplyDeleteI agree with the first comment. If you hate it so much why on earth do you watch it and then review it? No, really, why?
ReplyDeleteYeah, I agree. I mean, this show is for fun...none of us takes it that seriously. I've been dissapointed too this season and I think it's because I thought Jillian was a cut above. But she is still a good person and (I believe) is still sincere about giving this a good shot.
ReplyDeleteYou are right that Michael and her had no chemistry though. He must have ADHD or something. I don't see him being capable of a serious conversation. The only reason he is still here is because he'll be easier to let go later and won't take it hard. He doesn't seem to take any of this seriously. Ditto with Tanner P.
Wes is a non-issue...don't even want to waste a sentence on...oh wait...I'm wasting a sentence! Damn.
I really did like Ed. He seemed to be pretty down to earth..totally proves it by leaving the show, I might add.
I do like your commentary except for the trash talk about Jillian ("tramp" and so forth) and I think we would all enjoy this blog better if you brought out a little more humor...which you are totally capable of. Just my 2 cents.
I thinnk it is pretty funny that you take so much time to write this blog and you are so negative.. Just like everyone else said just dont even waste your time. There is no reason to be so rude.
ReplyDeleteWell, if you don't like what Brady says, don't read it, if you don't like the show don't watch it!. That was a good cop-out for Ed. I think he left before he got caught as being the one with a girlfriend. Anyhow, so what if they have girlfriends, makes for more drama in this glorified soap opera. I know David is gone (but not forgotten) but he would make a perfect JR in a remake of Dallas. Well I enjoyed the scenery of Canada if nothing else. Hurry up DWTS!!
ReplyDeleteI'm with Brady regading Jillian's selfish attitude towards Ed. If Ed really will lose his job unless he leaves the show, then he needs to leave before its too late. Its not as if Jillian and Ed are married. There will be plenty of time for romance later on.
ReplyDeleteWTF?? Don't read this blog if you don't like it! This blog isn't any more negative than Reality Steve's, and he's not spreading rumors around like that jackass.
