I'll be there, front & center. Berating myself the whole time about WHY AM I WATCHING THIS DRIBBLE!!! LOL Dottie

It does look to be full of drama. LOL I will be glued...and wonder why, I too, am watching this dribble. LOL

LOL same here! I'll be watching, all the while thinking why am I watching this garbage.

Signed,
A reality show addict who desperately needs an intervention :)

I could only watch 30 minutes of it last week....but maybe I will check in tonight and see if I can watch the whole thing.
I think I would rather clean the kitchen. LOL

After tonight, cleaning toilet bowls sounds like fun! I have know idea why I watch this show. I look at these girls (young women) and say my God, they have beautiful hair, beautiful bodies, beautiful teeth. You gotta ask yourself, somethings wrong with this picture. How come they're so desperate to take part in this degrading show? Somethings wrong somewhere.

I get sucked in every season as well. I always say no more of this garbage, but then all my senses go out the window as I watch the trainwreck. Tonight was no different.

Interesting episode. Can't believe the gal who was asked to leave, thought she did nothing inappropriate.

Georgysmom, I agree some these gals are very desperate, it's sad. Michelle is a ticking time bomb.

That was an exciting episode for sure! I agree about Michelle....she seems like an emotional basket case.

Next week looks great too.

You know Michelle is going to be around until the end...we love ticking time bombs!

In the preview for next week, it shows Jake saying something about going ahead and leaving that you don't have to wait for a rose ceremony. Who do you think leaves, Michelle?

I think maybe it's Michelle, mboston. She seems so needy and desperate it's almost painful to watch her. I'd guessed that it was gonna be Rozlyn who was getting booted when they kept talking about an "inappropriate relationship" with a staffer.

Michelle is actually one of the naturally prettier girls there. At least she isn't one of the many botoxed,implanted, overbleached blonds.

When she's collected she seems pretty bright. Too bad she lets her emotions get the best of her. The crazy girl edit isn't helping either.

I still like Ella too. Ali seems like someone Jake would want. I like her. Not sure he's good enough for her. he;'s kind of immature when it comes to "love".

Elizabeth is too old for coy hard to get "don't kiss me" games. Makes her look like just another "you know what" tease.

Funny thing even though they didn't state what the inappropriate behavior was I pretty much get the gut feeling that the staff member allowed her to service him rather than the other way around. She just has that same look about her that I see pretty often. LOL

I was glad Chris said the staff person was also let go. You know the old goose/gander thing. I loved the date Ali & Jake had, the flight in the small plane, riding in the cool antique car and a private concert by Chicago. Love that band. Dottie

I had to laugh when Elizabeth pulled the "you can't kiss me" game...Ridiculous. The note she read to him made no sense and she sure fit alot on that little piece of paper lol.

I agree that Michelle is one of the few natural beauties, as well as Ali. I just wish Michelle would get it together, it's sad to watch her at times.

I'm still on the fence regarding Tinley, not sure what to make of her. She's very sweet and caring, but to me she seems quite pained over her divorce. But then again, it may be the editing.

I only lasted 15 minutes last night.
I went to bed and read.

After Rozlyn got booted last night, I googled to see if she was telling her story anywhere. Her response was that she had been totally deceived and manipulated by the production staff of The Bachelor. She said that in her initial interview, she told them that she had a 7 year old son, and asked them if she should reveal that to Jake at the very first opportunity.

She claims they told her not to, and that they would let her know when she can reveal it to him. Her one stipulation about coming on the show was that they allow her to call her son every day. They agreed to that, but then didn't make it possible for her to do so. She says she became really stressed at not being allowed to make her daily phone call to her son, and wanted to tell Jake about him, because she knew he would want the producers to stick to their agreement. But the producers told her under no circumstances could she tell Jake about her son until they gave her the go ahead.

Rozlyn feels that the production staff decides during the interview process how they will portray and edit each girl. One of the other girls who has a child, was allowed to tell Jake right away, and she is being portrayed as being honest, for doing so. But Rozlyn felt that the producers decided to portray her as the sneaky, scheming single mother, who wants Jake to fall for her before she drops the bomb that she has a 7 year old, when in fact, they wouldn't allow her to tell him.

She says they are doing that to make her look like a villainess, for higher ratings. One of the camera men who knew of the producer's promise to Rozlyn, was caught discussing with her about them being liars. She claims she and the camera man never slept together and have had nothing physical at all, that their "inappropriate relationship" consisted of a negative conversation about the producers, that was overheard.

Rozlyn says that she was then portrayed as some sleazy contestant who had an affair with a staffer, when nothing like that ever happened, because they were infuriated that one of their camera men took her side and was discussing with her about how they manipulate what the t.v. audience believes. Don't know how what the truth is, but that's what I read.

yeah, I also read that this is the story Rozlyn is "marketing." I don't believe it, though. During the time that Chris Harrison was talking to her outside the mansion about it, she never, ever, not once, denied having an "inappropriate relationship." The one comment that she did make was that she felt her personal life should be her own private business. When Chris said something about the other girls being there for Jake, Rozlyn never said that she, too, was there for Jake.

And I think from what was have seen of Rozlyn (lifting her leg with no panties on during the photo shoot), she seems the type who wouldn't give a rat's patootie about what the producers "prohibited her from saying" to Jake. If she wanted to tell him about her kid, she would have.

I agree with all you said Lindsey.

Didn't they show some dark bedroom footage last week on the previews. I thought that was proof that Rozlyn and the producer had slept together? Maybe I dreamed that... do they have cameras in all the girl's bedrooms?

I agree too!

If she was so innocent then why didn't she fight a little harder when talking to Chris Harrison. I don't think anything was edited out. She was so silent while packing too. Heck if that was me and I was innocent, I wouldn't have been quiet.

Now that she's got media attention, she'll unfortunately profit somehow. Since she didn't have a problem showing the viewers her privates, then maybe Playboy will give her a call lol

On the forum for The Bachelor, the same story was reported as Pickyshopper said. Chris Harrison's blog was all about Roz and he said it was a physical relationship and that it has continued since she/he were let go.

Some people also think that the girl shown leaving with the suitcase was actually Vienna who goes on a one on one date with Jake and that she has to pack in case she doesn't get a rose. And that they oftenput dialogue along with the video that actually isn't for that scene and that it may be Ella who leaves because of her son. Who knows, its TV!

Does anyone think that Michelle looks like Sandra Bullock, esp through the eyes?

Unfortunately, I let my curiosity get the better of me and I read all about this season on Reality Steve's Blog this afternoon, so I know pretty much all the twists and turns. My favorite (not sayin' who) will be gone at final 3. I am not happy with who "wins". But maybe she'll grow on me over the next few episodes.

Yes, I agree that Michelle is very pretty...until she talks, then hide the knives! I also thought Christine (?) was really pretty. She was the insecure one that got a little too drunk and was let go last night.

Jake sure has a Madonna Whore complex. He keeps picking the sexy trashy chicks and then is so surprised that her values aren't like his. Oops.

I get so frustrated, and yet keep watching....
