Bachlorette...thoughts...

Watching pre rose ceremony.....

Trista looked in real agony after watching Charlie's tape hello after meeting his family....after everybody elses she had a warm smile on her face....is this a sign...???

 

[zurgswife]

Darn...I was wrong...Charlie continued....everybody says he is the guy....but I wasn't sure....i

 

[Meriweather]

I heard that Trista got in big trouble because the "winner" has been outed early and she has to do a lot of damage control to not pay a big fine...........
Ratings are supposed to go down because we know who "wins".

 

[kdibattista]

Who is it?? I didn't hear anything about a winner announced early.

 

[rbuzzotta]

My NyQuil kicked in during the rose ceremony and I didn't see who got booted off????

Fill me in please.........

 

[tnkrbell]

I can not remeber what the guys name was that she dumped!! I know she kept Ryan,Charlie and yuck!! Russ!!!
The guy she dumped seemed so sweet to me!! VEry sincere but I think she was not impressed by his apartment.

 

[disnee15]

She got rid of greg... nooooooooooooooooo Russ is evil (Yuck) I really hope Ryan wins though because he is sweet and really really cute!

 

[snoopy]

Well, I fell asleep and missed everything after her meeting Russ' family. But I was taping it, but the strangest thing happened - the tape only recorded her meeting Charlie's family and the rose ceremony - not Ryan or Greg's families! I am wondering if possibly they were first, and I just missed it all together?

In any case, I predicted Greg would be the next to go, although if it were me, I think I might pick him in the end. He's awfully cute! I also like Ryan and Charlie. She does have a tough choice - with the exception of Russ she has been given the choice of some nice looking and sincere (or at least they appear to be) men.

I didnt like Charlie's family, they seemed a little snobby-especially after she was gone.
I think she is going to end up with Ryan. Everytime there is a rose ceremony I know he is going to stay while Im unsure about the others. Ryan is very romantic and that has made a big hit with her.
I dont know who won either, guess Im out of the loop.

Snoopy, she did go to Ryan & Greg's families first. Then Russ & Charlie.

Even though I cannot stand Russ, I think she made the right choice letting Greg go last night. His apt. was really bad and the thing with the mouse was gross! She looked like she would end the date right then and there if she could!

I like how Ryan says its a give and take and he can't do all the giving and totally change for her. But what was with the wrapping paper for his b-day gift? Was it newspaper?! He's my favorite but Charlie is okay too. My head was hurting listening to Charlie's family's dinner conversation!!!

I don't know who ultimately wins and I don't want to know either! So if someone posts it please put a big SPOILER at the top!!!

 

[Jenn Lynn]

I think Ryan's wrapping paper was a map. Possibly of Africa???

I think Russ is yucky! And there is something about Charlie that is just not right to me. Ryan seems so nice and sincere. I like how he is laid back and doesn't seem to try so hard to impress her.

I thought all the guys at Ryan's firehouse were so nice. It was great that they had nothing but wonderful things to say about Ryan. It definitely says a lot for his true character. I knew Greg was going to go as soon as she saw that apartment. Didn't he say that he had cleaned it after his friend left? If that's clean, I would have hated to see it before!

I think Russ will go next week leaving Charlie and Ryan for the final two. In the end I think she will pick Charlie because he seems more amenable to moving near her. I don't think Ryan wants to leave Vail.

I thought it was interesting that Trista made the comment about Russ not really having had a job for the past year because he was writing a book. She was interested it "see how he is living". I think that may be Russ' downfall. Trista doesn't have a job right now, and I think she is looking for some stability.

I watched the tape this morning... watched American Idol last night.

Funny, I thought this was the only show that I really took a good look at Russ... I liked the relationship he had with his niece and the nickname she gave him, "Punka". Otherwise, he's still my last choice.

Ryan doesn't look comfortable or confident enough to me. Something about him is so childish.

Greg, well, guy, I KNOW NY apartments and that was one! LOL! They say that there's a rat for everybody in NY and I think he saw his! Other than that, it's rare to see a person living alone in NY and that's a plus for him! He IS an artist, and I think that's what an artist's place looks like! When she said that she didn't want to appear "shallow" I knew he was gonna go!

Charlie is my favorite. I thought his family was very real, and some of the questions they asked him I know I would've asked. The whole scenario is so strange, and the idea that a relative of mine was involved in it... I'd try to talk him out of it PRONTO!

We'll see. I think it'll be between Russ and Charlie. For some reason she likes swarmy men, remember the FIRST bachelor? He was swarmy personified!

 

[Meriweather]

Well, I did miss the first hour.....because our TV guide only had it listed as one hour long
So, I missed Ryan and Greg's family

But, like I said our local radio station talked about who won because Trista was seen with him recently............so she's been doing major damage control.

No you don't want to know...........it would spoil the surprise.
I watched the rose ceremony last night and since I knew.......it was just the order to be decided of the other 3.

 

[snoopy]

Aha, so that was why I missed Ryan and Greg's families! I didn't know it was two hours long either.

I really wanted to see Ryan's family in particular. Were they as nice as he is?

 

[smileybrat]

he annoys the crap out of me. i don't know why she is keeping him. ryan is my favorite. he seems really sweet. charlie's family didn't seem to like trista much.

the show last night was 1.5 hours long if you wonder why you missed some. next week it is only 1 hour.

if you want to know why everyone seems to know the winner, scroll down. if not don't look.


















trista was supposedly pulled over and charlie was in the passenger seat. she only got a warning in exchange for her autograph.

 

[ChiTownZee]

She was on a Miami radio station yesterday morning and denied that anyone was in the car, she said she was alone, and it was a ticket for not wearing her seatbelt, not speeding. For what that's worth LOL

Yes, they were, cuz. In fact, he told Trista that his Mom would probably be dressed like she was and she was! I think it really broke the ice for them.

Greg's family was nice as well, but his apartment.... I think he should've skipped showing her that place. I remember during the Bachelor some of the girls chose to only show him their parent's place or another relatives, I wonder why he voluteered to show her that place????

 

[Luv2Dream]

I watched this show for the first time last night and I could tell right away that she was going to get rid of Greg because of that apartment. His booting didn't surprise me one bit.

 

[disykat]

Does Charlie live in California and his parents live in Arizona? I wasn't quite clear - but she obviously didn't get to see Charlie's apartment. None of them were living in luxury.

While Greg's kitchen mess didn't earn any points with me, I think it hurt him that they met his family in a restaurant and he was busy hugging his family and Trista had to introduce herself. It made it more about socializing and less about welcoming and getting to know Trista - much less personal at that point.

Ryan is a cutie and would be my choice, but I don't see them as a match. She doesn't like cold weather etc. I think she lives a more "sophisticasted" lifestyle than he does and some of their interests would clash.

Russ was much more likable with his family than at any other time.
