Jillian the Bachlorette

[NAB]

I don't know if it is the editing but I am not really liking Jillian now. I have no idea what she is looking for in a guy. Can't figure out why the break dancing instructor is still there.

I do not blame Ed for leaving if it is really work related. Like she said she couldn't promise him anything.

Also find she doesn't really talk much to the guys and I thought the hot tub
scene seemed very awkward. I think he hit it on the nail when he said she would have loved the date with any of the guys.

Hope the guy who can't "perform" next week is Wes. I do not like that guy. And he did say that he got exposure now for his CD.

 

[JLitfin]

I agree I don't like Wes, somethings up with him, his CD I guess, he wants to get seen, he should of done American Idol

I also don't like Tanner, don't really trust him, I think she's keeping him around since he started this rumor about the other guys, she wants to know who he was talking about

Can't wait to see what happens next week

 

[LivinInTheCastle]

Wes is to old to be on AI.

I dont think Jillian will end up with any of em, even if she picks one I doubt it will last.

I don't blame Ed at all for going back to work. His career is worth more than a 1-in-8 chance of getting Jillian in the end. Plus, since Jillian says that she wants to be "taken care of" how exactly would Ed be able to do that without a job? I think her tears were more over Ed dumping her and her pride being hurt than any long-lasting feelings she had for him. She came off as a spoiled brat.

As for Wes ... I was hoping that he was somewhat nice IRL because Jillian seemed to like him so much. Then we overhear that he has 6 shows into the series and has enough exposure (or something like that) . Now I guess we really do know what he's on the show for after all. '

My top-three guys are still in the running: Jake, Kiptyn and Ried.

I agree Ed needed to keep his job, especially in this economy. I mean seriously come on!

But I read something tonight that was quite interesting, granted it was in Star Magazine but I actually believe this story. They said that at least 3 of the guys... Ed, Kipton and Reid are being paid up to $50,000 to be on this and were guaranteed to be in the final 4!!!

Most of these men that were "cast" because of how they looked and their agents sent in head shots. All these guys have 6 pack abs...your regular Joe Schmoe would not look as good as these guys do.

Reid even has a headshot and his phone # on his real estate website and it also says that he was on the Bacholerette as well.

I don't like Jillian, she makes out with EVERY one and doesn't make any sense. She does ask questions and they are pretty good but I just don't get it. How can she not see that Wes is ONLY there for his music, she is really not that swift. I also don't understand why she would give up her career for a man as well or to find love as she puts it. I don't know I am not liking this season and I think Kipton is the one with the girlfriend.

Michael the "dancer" is very cute but for my 21 year old cousin. He is wayyyyy to immature for her. He means well but he is no way ready to settle down and have a family.

 

[JanaNs]

I am confused about the scenes from next week....are we to assume she attempts to have sex with one of them? I know that there has always been these all night dates but I didn't think the show lead you to believe there was sex going on!! I'm no prude but does anyone else find this tacky?? I don't even want to finish watching now that Ed's gone...he was my fave I guess Reid or Jesse would be my next choices. That grin on Jake's face is starting to get on my nerves!

 

[Kimberle]

Oh my gosh, this has got to be the most BOARING Bach. show ever!! There is no "connection" between any of them. They are so boaring. Does Jill even know what *she* wnats?? The normal casting director must have been on vacation this time.....

That's right I forgot there's an age limit on the AI show. I just don't like Wes and hope she doesn't end up with him. Not really sure which guy she should end up with, she doesn't really seem to have that connection with any of them, it's like she's just playing the field and having fun while doing so.

And why are we doing the fantasy suite with 8 guys this time and not the final 3. And usually we don't get to hear this part of it. I wouldn't want to be that guy they are talking about and have all of us and his friends and family see it.

All Jillian seems to be doing is crying.

Maybe I'm wrong but wasn't that clips from upcoming episodes?

Finding this group boring - but not much else on tv sigh

I think she seems drunk alot. Like when she was talking to Kypton. I think they are just up coming scenes

 

[happygirl]

Has Jillian done any talk shows since the she was became the Bachlorette, In the past they hit the talks show hard and often.

 

[NAB]

That would make sense then but I thought they were previews for next week

I agree she drinks a lot.....and the comment about feeling her wet butt, wow. Is that all they had to work with to edit that scene?

 

[DeluxePrincess]

Ed was smart to go back to his job. In reality, that would be a guy a girl would be impressed with. Seems Jillian was upset that he would not risk his entire livelihood for the CHANCE of being her boyfriend. A great ending would be that she chooses none of the remaining guys and flys off to see Ed. This batch of guys seem like actors/models. I'm not feeling them. Ed seemed real. Oh well.

 

[N&B'smom]

I liked Ed. I think she was upset because as she said, now she would never know. She will wonder 'what if?'.

I liked Jake but I have to agree, his dorky grin is getting on my nerves.

 

[TwinsinCA]

Why is she asking such inane questions like "Why are you here?" Does she really think some guy is going to TELL her he is trying to further his career??

I agree with the others about Ed. She was a really witch when she kept saying stuff like "he should have thought of this before he signed up". It sounded to me like things with his job hit the fan and it wasn't anticipated. The irony is is that this is the kind of guy you'd want to hang on to and because of that he had to leave. Like others have said him putting himself out there does NOT compare with her. She will end up with someone at the end of this (even if it doesn't last long). Ed has no control over the situation. Unless she meant she quit her job when she was trying to get Jason. And I am tired of her tears and her going on and on about the sacrifices SHE is making. boo hoo.

Clearly Kiptyn is the one she really wants. She is giddy with him far more than with anyone else. And he has shown very little interest in her. He SAYS he is interested. But I don't believe a word of it. I still say he is like Graham.

And Wes. I heard that conversation between them in the snow and couldn't believe the way she spun that into a good thing in her mind. I thought the things he said should have given her a hint as to what kind of a creep he is.

Why is Tanner still there? It feels like she is using him to get information but has no real interest in him.

Still like Reid and Jesse. I think Jesse is the one she likes the most that somewhat likes her back. Jake is getting very little screen time. I don't like Robby. First his comments to Juan and then his snarky comment to Ed. And Mike can go any time. His comments about girls from the midwest ticked me off.

 

[Jeafl]

Here is what I don't understand. She has a very limited time to really get to know these guys. Yet she has totally blown off the last 2 cocktail parties, which is a perfect time to get to know them better. WTH?? Even if she made up her mind already who was going home, why not take the time to talk to everyone else? 6 weeks is not a lot of time to decide who you want to spend the rest of your life with, why not make the most of the time you have?

I give Ed a lot of credit for going home and doing the responsible thing. There were no guarantees with Jillian, and in this economy, why blow off a good job? I think her tears were of self-pity because it was not all about HER for once. She kept saying that she took a chance with her life, but she has all the control. I totally understand why he did it and that makes me like him even more.

I noticed last night that Chris (in voiceover) said something about "Will Jillian find out about the real Wes" or something like that, so there must be something that he is hiding. I still don't get what she sees in him.

One more thing. She keeps saying Jake is too "perfect" and she isn't, so it isn't a good match. Then why is she keeping him around if she has already made up her mind? Let him go so he can find someone that will really make him happy.

Check out Chris Harrison's blog from this week. There's an interesting Wes tidbit in there. He also addresses the guys being paid to be on the show and how she regrets not letting Mark go earlier:

Jillian seems to be one of those girls who gravitates to the guys who are the absolute worst for her and then complains about never finding a nice guy.

 

[happygirl]

I really enjoying read Chris Blogs he seems to tell what he thinks

I, too, thought they were just scenes from upcoming episodes, not next week. That said, though, they do seem to come really close to giving away who the guys are that make it that far. Isn't there a voiceover of Wes when they're showing the fantasy date clips? I didn't tape it this time, so I can't go back and see.
