Who will be watching Emily Maynard the Bachelorette? No Spoilers PLEASE

[Imzadi]

I can see him rock climbing or backpacking through a third world country.

You just described next season's The Bachelor.

Also, do you really believe that Emily walked home alone through the darkened streets at that time of night? Really? The producers couldn't find someone to give her a lift to her hotel?

Yeah, that was quite unbelievable. Let the STAR of the show walk around in dark back alleys alone. Where was that Carrie producer whose always with her? Or one of the PAs?

....if he boils any bunnies, I outta here!

Hey! This is a no spoiler thread!

I really like Jef. I have from the beginning but I don't get why somebody like him would be on this show. By "somebody like him" I mean hip, not mainstream. He's super cute. Has anybody seen some of his pictures from before the show where he had long hair? He looked liked a young Bob Geldolf.

I just don't get why he would be attracted to Emily or going on the show. Ballgowns and fancy mansions just don't seem his style. I can see him rock climbing or backpacking through a third world country.

I really like him I just don't think him and Emily are on the same planet.

I read an interview with Jef- he said he cut his hair to be on the show because from what he heard about Emily, she was a Southern Belle type girl who was used to more conservative looking guys and he didn't want to go home early because of his more boho look. He says he is very laid back and he has tattoos and long hair usually, but has more traditional ideas about family and marriage- he didn't want to be typecast as the "oddball hippy type" because of his look.

((Doug leans in and kisses Emily))
Emily: "Thank you for that."
Doug: "Yup."
Awkward...a day late and a dollar short indeed!

Loved the puppet show. "We couldn't leave Ricki hanging!"

"That's not who I am" is usually a pretty good indicator of exactly who they are. You're not fooling anybody, Chris!

Funny, I thought stalker Chris would be the one running thorugh the streets of Prague shouting "Emily!", not Sean!

This is like therapy. . . Talk through the puppet. . .

The Top Ten Quotes from Bachelorette:

But how sad that Emily’s Bachelors are so afraid of her they have to use therapy dolls to express their feelings.

I nailed that one!

I think they were trying to do Heathcliff chasing after Cathy on the moors, in Wuthering Heights. . .

Or Daniel Day Lewis in Last of the Mohicans, "I will find you!"

He seems very laid back and from reading his ???instagram account??? (some kind of twitterverse type thing) I like him even more.

Just watched online - strange show tonight - what was so romantic about the creepy cold castle, anyway? It is interesting to see new places, but there are alot of walls!

Well, Chris is being creepy scary tonight. I am loving Sean.
Arie and Sean are definites. I think Chris and John will be going home.

Chris is downright scarey.

Ooooh! I bet the real reason the show didn't show Emily's confrontation with Arie is that it revealed too much about her feelings now about Arie. Like he's not going to be the one after all. The way she kissed Sean was a LOT more than when she kissed Arie.

I know - it seems like Arie grabs her face constantly and kisses her - she seems to be just going through the motions now.

This is not going well for Doug. . .

That kiss was just plain awkward. Emily barely broke her train of thought, she kept right on talking after! I think he's going to be upset watching that back tonight.

Uggh! Just kiss her already! He's been like a BFF the whole time - apparently he was so respectful he missed his cue!

Maybe he's Mormon, too? What's with all these slow guys?

I think they had the idea she is more "ladylike" than she is.

She's leaning back away from Chris during the kiss.

Awkward!

Yeah. . . but now, that heavy kissing with Sean in the alley was something else. Her kisses with Arie tend to be on the "sweet" side.

Looked like the real deal - I think they had to hose him down.

Well I guess Doug and Chris are the two tonight. Chris is scary and I did not expect that.
I am loving Sean and Jef but Sean is my favorite.

I think Sean would be the best - Jef is more like a friend.

So do you guys feel it's fair that they can take her away to talk during the rose ceremony.

No, they shouldn't be able to do that, but she might like them to fight for her.

I thought they were super cute too! They look so comfortable with each other and actually had a, what's that word...oh, a CONVERSATION. All Arie does is kiss her, and sloppily at that. I think she's most smitten with Jef and Sean. They both seem like laid back sweethearts so that must be what she's looking for.

Arie's kisses look pretty awkward sometimes too.

I thought the same thing, she looked far better without the makeup being applied with a trowel.

I thought it was odd that Sean would just walk/run through the streets of Prague looking for Emily, having no clue where she might be. Did you also notice that he did not encounter another person in the streets? Prague is a huge city, and I found that whole thing so strange. Also, do you really believe that Emily walked home alone through the darkened streets at that time of night? Really? The producers couldn't find someone to give her a lift to her hotel?

The whole thing just seemed so improbable to me. Having said that, I am hoping Sean is the final one. He seems to be just what she needs, although I really like Jef as well. I think whichever one she doesn't pick will be the next Bachelor. I think Arie will come in third. She definitely has hot pants for him, but they don't seem to connect on an intellectual level.

The only thing that worries me about Sean is that he might not be rich enough for Emily. I'm sure an insurance man doesn't make as much money as say, a race car driver.

They should fire her make-up person. Always too much - always too oily looking.

I doubt if she was alone - that scene was probably staged once they knew he was looking for her. I kept waiting for someone to call the police to arrest the crazy American!

Poor Doug - he can do better, I think.

The puppets were cute. Do you think it was spontaneous?

Chris! That's who you ARE! The real you shows up under stress

I think they were trying to do Heathcliff chasing after Cathy on the moors, in Wuthering Heights. . .

Or Daniel Day Lewis in Last of the Mohicans, "I will find you!"

I was thinking Romeo and Juliet!

...which is what Doug said all along....

Ya, I get it. Who would have thought that Chris is the unstable one! I actually felt bad for Doug on that last date in particular. I think he isn't quite the raging dude I originally pegged him for. Now Chris, well if I were Emily I'd be switching addresses and changing cell phone #'s. He's creepy weird and the more bizarre he acted, the beadier his eyes got and his lips practically disappeared! I have a feeling we'll be seeing him on Bachelor Pad this summer......

I love the Bronte sisters but that novel, man I had to read it with the light on! It's so dark and twisted.

Sean yelling for Emily was funny and sort of charming at the same time. I'd have been flattered as anything if a guy did that for me. He'd make an excellent next Bachelor too. But what do I know, I said that about that doofus Ben.

Or Daniel Day Lewis in Last of the Mohicans, "I will find you!"

"No matter what occurs, I will find you!"

Excellent movie.

"No matter what occurs, I will find you!"

Excellent movie.

Completely OT LOTM story:I was substitute teaching 8+ months pregnant, a hormonal mess, the students are *terrified* of the crazy preggers lady, I walk into an English classroom to find out that I have to show that movie to FOUR classes throughout the day! Can you say bawling?!? The students were reallllllly quiet, though....

DS walked through the room when I was watching this week's episode and said,"Isn't this the show where they're usually in swimsuits, drinking and making out in hottubs in warm climates?" It made me realize how switched up this season really has been!

He has to stand in line behind Ryan. I wonder if they will duke it out, outside her house?

You gals are so funny!

 

[shortbun]

OK, guys, I watched Monday night and I have to say that I was wondering if Emily picked Chris because she was afraid not to. He is a mess. Haven't watched before but seems like Sean and Jef have passion with her and Ari is 3rd with less passionate or intimate kissing. I like the way Jef brings out the girl in her. She's had to be this stoic, strong woman all along and Jef seems to allow her to relax...maybe to a fault. I loved their conversation about how their lives would be with children. I only had conversation like that with TWO of the men in my life. One of them is my husband of 30 years. The other died in Vietnam and that's a whole other thread.

Oh yes! I loved how Jef was the one that brought it up this time, instead of Emily.

Still, I think they don't fit. The puppet show was cute, but all they do is young stuff together. That is fine for a short period of time, but in the end, IMO, I still think she wants a MAN. An Alpha Man. She did have to grow up awfully fast at a young age to take care of a kid on her own. I think ultimately, she wants to be able to lean on a man, as Dr. Phil calls it, "A soft place to fall," instead of just someone to play with all the time.

I think Jef will be a GREAT dad someday. Just not now.In their relationship, Emily would always be the Alpha, and she really wants to be a Beta.

...I can see her as the beta....I mean, she DOES wear all those sparkly gowns and stuff....

Did anyone see the current commercial for next week's episode? It paints my man Sean in a not so flattering light.

I really think my heart is broken.

[Jeafl]

I hope this isn't considered a spoiler, but they are showing it on all the Bachelorette commercials...

They show Sean telling Emily he still lives at home with his parents and they show his room which looks like a messy teenage boy's room. Not flattering for a 28 year old man.
