The Bachelor

Maddie · Coach

Wow it seems like these girls are crazier than usual. Last week I thought it was hilarious how druk and obnoxious Tara was, but now it's just annoying. Although she is completely gorgeous.

Moana seems to be the obvious one to go with. She just seems real. I can't believe the other girls accused her of being too aggressive (well first of all, it's every woman for herself on this show they're just sore losers), she's not talking shit about them behind their backs to Travis! She's just chilling and seeing how it goes.

I am completely baffled by them talking shit about the other girls to Travis. Do they think this is going to help them win him? Or trying to sell themselves to him and talking about how much they have in common? My guess is that's why he likes Moana cause it's not as tiring to hang out with her.

EXACTLY - we are completely on the same page. I really liked the teacher too & now I really don't. They are all so worried about all the other girls that they are all acting insane. Except the one...I agree - she is the only one not gushing over some guy she just met - i mean really who is the crazy one?

And I can't believe Susan is the actress wanna be. I thought she was sincere - either she is or she really is a pretty good actress.

How funny was the girl that used swimsuit model as her unique & special talent with his friends? Bwahhhhhhh ha ha ha!

That was sooooo funny! My friend and I spent the rest of the night going, "This is my talent" while pointing at various body parts.

I also loved when Moana was like, "Well I'm shallow as a kiddie pool..." regarding the rings. At least she's honest. Tara's, "This one seems the most romantic" was much less endearing.

i've never understood this strategy either. you get such limited time with the bachelor, it's seems so silly to waste it talking about some other girl.

OMG! I haven't been watching this season, so I spent two hours last night watching last week and this week's episodes. Too funny!

IMO--Tara is alright. I liked her better before, but now she's a pain in the ass and if I were the teacher from Tennessee, I'd be SO pissed at her. Tara's gorgeous though!!! She seems like she's got a good personality, but she's letting the craziness and competition keep her from shining.

I think Susan is totally fake. She was trying to act all coy and say the right things and everything when they went to the restaurant and I thought he was an idiot for not seeing through her. I really really don't like her.

At first Moana seemed standoffish to me, but as the show progressed, I liked her more. You guys are right--she's the only one with her head screwed on straight.

I like Sarah Canada still. She was a little immature when she was all pouty, but overall, I like her because I think she's pretty real. I can't see the two of them together though--I think she's young and I think that's not going to work well for her in the end.

And to be honest, I don't really see him with any of these women. He seems too down to earth and smart to fall for any of their crap. None of them seem terribly intelligent either, so it seems like he'd have actually communicating with any of them in real life.

Oh, and the poem girl from last week KILLED me! I was laughing so hard! Especially when she was saying it was the best poem she'd ever written! HAHAHAHAHAHAHA! (I'm terrible.) But I liked her attitude at the end when she was saying she'll meet someone that appreciates her for who she is. I also liked that she didn't try to be someone else just to please him.

i only watched the first 15 min or so, because i was bored and tired. i got a bit sick of hearing the bach ask unsuspecting passersby "oo ee pa-riss?" ok, we get that you don't speak french, but could you at least attempt to get the pronunciation right? it's not like that's a long sentence, maybe one of the producers could have helped you out, dude. and did anyone catch susan with her fingers up going "dos?" in spanish when the old farmer man gave them directions--lol.

i can't comment on the rest of it until i watch later tonight.

how was jehan? she's the only one i like, except maybe moana but i haven't seen enough of her yet to know. i HATE sarah from canada. she seems as dumb as a bag of hammers and i will be very disappointed if she wins.

ejc423 · Coach

They all get on my nerves. Well, except for Jehan. I like her. Which means he won't pick her.

NCShopper, I can't stand Susan either. She made me want to vomit on their date. Blech.

I predict that the top two will be Susan and Sarah from Canada. But I would love for the top two to be Jehan and Moana. I think next week Sarah from Nashville and Tara will go home.

bumblebee · Coach

ok, just watched the rest. i have to say i was sad to see sarah the model go--i thought she was funny and genuinely witty--she had a lot more personality and quickness than a lot of the others. she was even funny on the way out, saying she should have held the tent with one hand and mixed them a cocktail with the other.

speaking of cocktails, tara looked HAMMERED throughout the yacht date. she was slurring and had her eyes half-closed when she was explaining her "reasoning" for busting up travis and the teacher's conversation. she just seems really immature and lame to me, but i agree, incredibly beautiful.

i think it's gonna be susan and jehan, with moana being the pot-stirrer who will finally be let go before the final two. from the preview, it kinda looked like it would be tara who goes next time--that looked like her hair in the preview hugging travis and saying "just watch out."

and i can't stand sarah canada--did you guys notice that not once did she refer to herself and travis as anything other than "me and him"---UGH!!! like nails on a chalkboard! she's pretty, but so damn stupid.

and susan does appear to believe she is on a pageant--but i think travis is buying what she's selling. i think she's going to win the whole thing and then dump him the following week to be an actress.
