The Bachelor.
People, I’m still all over this. It’s amazing what the “Most Shocking Ending Ever” and an impending layoff will do to people.
I’ve been thinking about this (or as I’m sure my friend, Kristina, would say “obsessing”) and the whole thing makes me sad. As a child of divorce, I get really upset when couples break up. Hell, I’ll probably be sad if Tom Brady and Giselle divorce (and I love me some Tom Brady). I took the Jen and Brad bust up really hard and consequently, took me forever to see Mr. & Mrs. Smith, which was really hard because I’ve seen every Vince Vaughn movie ever.
So I just don’t get it: what happened to the cute, sweet, charming Jason from The Bachelorette? Sure, he was kind of dorky, but it was an adorable, Ross Gellar-like dorkiness. I guess when you add 25 women fighting over you, you tend to lose your head and you cry a lot. Going into this, I really wanted Melissa to come out on top because I’ve been rooting for her ever since Kelli got upset with her for not dancing well because she had mono. Ultimately I think she’ll be okay. I mean, if you can survive 100 days of Cheerleader Training Camp with special guest appearances by Kitty Carter, you can rule the world.
Plus, I just don’t see Molly and Jason together, and douchebag moves aside, I still like Jason. I know, I know. I have bad taste in men and like Melissa, am always the dumpee. Yet, I still tend to see the good in the guys that I’ve liked. Maybe that makes me a masochist, who knows. All I know is that I probably won’t watch this show again. Or maybe I’ll pull a Jason Mesnick and set a Season Pass on my DVR. I’ll call Chris Harrison and he can set up a press conference.

1. I love the new website layout.
2. Stop obsessing.
Never!
The new layout is awesome! I also wanted Melissa to win because she was spunky and I felt bad for her that her parents didn’t want to be on tv for the hometown date. I also love her background with the DCC training camp. I just never warmed to Molly.
Jason on the other hand was my favorite Bachelor in a long time and was the reason I actually watched this season. Maybe it is the fact that he has a little boy and he seems like a good Dad. But it also makes me feel really sad and disillusioned that he is coming off like a douchebag. I’m holding out hope that he is a good guy-I did hear that the producers made him do the “break-up” on tv because of his contract, which made me feel a little better. Maybe he is a victim of his own indecisiveness.
Thank you!
I’m really upset about how fast Jason’s fallen from grace. At least Nixon made a comeback with going to China and being great at foreign relations.
For his sake, I hope he and Molly stay together…and I don’t even really care for Molly. I just don’t want to see Jason on Rock of Love Houseboat Edition.
[...] I re-watched the scene in Troy where Eric Bana holds his son or DVRing the Jason Mesnick season of The Bachelor. So the fact that Richard picked up Harry Potter Ben and saved his life…well Richard is at [...]
