AAAARRRRGGGGHHHH!!!!
Last night's Bachelor finale felt like the meanest trick anyone has ever played on me.
If you've been following my blog for awhile, you know that I loved Jason from DeAnna's season and was thrilled to learn that he was the next Bachelor. I've also pegged Melissa as my favorite since the very first episode. So to watch him propose, her scream out of delight, and all of them jump in the pool was very gratifying. Sure, it's just television, but I'm a hopeless romantic and I live for this stuff. I actually said, "I'm so happy" out loud as I watched the two of them declare their lifelong love to one another.
Five minutes later, my jaw literally hung open as Jason said that six weeks after the finale, the chemistry was gone, it wasn't working, and he was still in love with Molly. It was painful to watch. I hate you, Jason Mesnick. I hate you for doing this to such a wonderful girl. I even watched your interview on Jimmy Kimmel last night to confirm my feelings that you are one hell of an SOB and not the man I thought you were.
And I hate you too, ABC. Don't think I didn't notice the convenient product placement. It's awfully easy to step it up from Tacori to Neil Lane when you know you're getting the ring back, bastards.
My solution to all of this is that Jeremy Anderson from DeAnna's season and Melissa should get together. Bad things happen to good people and they both live in Dallas, so why not?
Admittedly, I have only followed the Bachelor via your blog until last night when I was absolutely GLUED to my TV!!
ReplyDeleteI was very disappointed in Jason as well and I think any credibility he had as a "good guy" has since been thrown out the window.
Next season, Melissa as Bachelorette? Yes please!
I am totally tired of the show now! I mean, Good Lord, that was rediculous! I am not watching the show after American Idol tonight. I, however, would love to invite you to my Lilly Fashion Show next week. Please drop by my blog post today for the details. I hope to see you there!
ReplyDeleteI didn't watch this season at all (last season, I screamed at my TV so much that my neighbors though I was being burglarized).
ReplyDeleteBut when I heard about what he did the that seemingly wonderful gal, I wanted blood.
How can you do that to someone????!?!!?
First off. These women have to open their hearts to him in order to really go through this sort of competition.
Then, he has a kid.
He tells her the words that every gal wants to hear from the perfect guy, "I love you, and I want to spend the rest of my life with you. Will You marry me?" (not sure what his exact words were.
SO they (ABC) separate them for 6 weeks. Total isolation to prevent spoilers.
He's from Seattle. She's from Dallas.
He has this child. A SMALL child.
This means that she was sitting for 6 weeks, planning everything around HIS life. Her new life with HIM...and the kid.
I'm sure she was even writing the guest list for the wedding.
Vera or Monique for the dress?
Everything!!!!
And then when she gets to see him, and finally publically gush about her new found fairy tale come true...homeboy dumps her. ON NATIONAL TELEVISION!
THEN he decides he wants the other gal (she's a donkey for wanting him after he kicked her to the curb too). THEN they proceed to make out??!??!?
I have nothing nice to say about this guy...OR ABC!!!
With all due respect, what else can you expect from a show that trivializes courtship and exploits infatuation, NOT true love?! Seriously, folks, this show is crap...don't watch it!
