A member e-mailed me the other day and pointed out that Bachelor has been running long, most likely as a way to keep viewers hooked into the station to watch Extrememe Makeover. So those using your VCRs don't forget to tape until 5 or 10 past the hour. Its listed as being 65 minutes tonight.

Thank you Ryn - too bad I didn't know about this last week when I taped it and lost the entire Rose Ceremony... not like I really missed much, but you know how annoying that can be!

Just checked - the next two weeks are the same way - 65 minutes - then Extreme Makeover.

Kellsma, I completely forgot the show was even on. Guess it hasn't hooked me at all this time! I am so into American Idol!

If you are still around, I will stay up just to post the results of the rose ceremony. Let me know if you are still out there...

AOL had a picture of Kirsten up. I thought she got the boot. Guess I will have to wait and see.

Rose ceremony just now starting.

Christina actually said in her personal video- "make me Mrs. Firestone." Talk about scary!

Tina gets rose #2.

Andrew confessing he thinks Cristina has been a little aggressive.

Cristina told him she had no idea and that she feels misled and that he is making a big mistake. But she is pretty calm. Very reined in.

Now crying and cursing in the limosine. "I bleep love that bleep."

This installment has been a little boring. I don't know if the formula is getting old or what. I like Andrew best out of the three but I am not that into his choices.

Once again, he defended Kirsten to another girl. When asked by her friend what she thought of the other three, Jen made mention of Kirsten(not by name) not extending herself to the other girls and Andrew jumped to Kirstens defense by saying (PP) that they're not there to make 24 friends. This is getting old really fast.

I was happy to see them in Jens neck of the woods i.e. Cleveland. They were at Malley's chocolate and ice cream parlor which, i must say, has the BEST hot fudge in the land.

Did anyone catch what he said when the one person asked him what he liked about the other three girls when he met Kirstens family? I had a screaming 3 yr old in my ear. Thanks!

I think Christina invoked the kiss of death when she said make me Mrs. Firestone.

Has anyone noticed Kirsten is proably the most catty of the four girls and she so has a boyfriend at home waiting for her. I don't think that is the kind of girl I would want to get serious with.

Did Andrew really expect Kirstens friend to give him the dirt on her and the boyfriend, especially in front of Kirsten? The way the friend spoke of the ex in her interview really makes me believe he is definately still in the picture.

Thanks Hermione, I had to go out and do errands. Just got back and now I know. Have to get up real early tomorrow, like 4:30am so don't know if I want to stay up and watch.

Take care

Fabnsab, let me see if I can summarize what he said about the other three girls when Kirsten's dad asked what qualities he could see in the other girls that might be missing in Kirsten:

Christina: a career drive that is very attractive. She's older and finds herself now looking for someone to fit into her life.

Jen: a mothering/nurturing quality that he found every attractive.

Tina: a wild card that has an energy and a fire about her that is very intriguing.

I found these assessments interesting. I think he nailed these three women in his assessments.

I also found it interesting the number of glances that were exchanged between Kirsten and her friend when Andrew asked about the boyfriend. Andrew seemed to notice it, too. But then he completely dismissed it. I just don't understand this guy.

I find myself at the moment completely unsure which of the three women will be in the final two. I'd love to hear other people's opinions and why they think what they think.

I think Kirsten's been a slam dunk since the pretty, drunk blonde left (I was so proud of him for letting her go - any other guy would have kept her for an arm piece at least till it got down to 3). I don't see sparks with him and anyone else. He seems so open & easy to read and seems just to be going through the motions till the end. Unless Tina drops her act and charms him somehow, I don't see any competition.

I missed the whole home town date between Andrew and Kirsten can anyone please sum it up for me? As many details as you rememeber would be great! I'm so in to this show! But I must admit that it isn't nearly as interesting to me as the previous bachelor's were. I think I'm just into it because other than the 1/2 hour AI there's not much else on Wed night! (that really makes me sound like a TV junkie!)

Is it just me, or does anyone on this show actually like anyone else on this show? This is the first time I had seen B3, so I am totally out of the loop. None of the girls seem to like any of the other girls, and Mr. Firestone doesn't seem to like any of them either, lol. That whole crowd seemed real frosty to me. I did only see the rose ceremony, though. Maybe it's just me.:)

There seems no connection between any of them, if you ask me. These girls keep saying "I've already fallen so in love" well, if that's love it's no wonder the divorce rate is so high. He doesn't seem REALLY sparked by any of them and they just want what goes with "Firestone". Tina gives me the willies. She is so hard looking and and oh so snotty!! That nose is about 10 feet in the air. It's like she smells something disgusting every time she is around the other girls. Kirsten and Jen seem to be the most ok girls there. But they have their quirks to. Doesn't seem to be any real fire going on among any of them. Andrew seems like a nice enough guy but he must have some real quirks too. This is a guy who could probably have 10 women hanging around if he wanted to. I keep waiting for the Smoking Gun to come out with something from an old girlfriend just waiting to shoot him down. It just seems like the other ones had a little more to it than this one does.

I thought I liked Jen, but then when she said she didn't like or want dogs, she dropped off my list. And she keeps dissing Kirsten, just not a nice or classy thing to do, regardless if Kirsten is derserving of that or not.

Tina may be okay if she drops the protective fencing.

Guess I like Kirsten the best...
