Mak1 | Wednesday, February 05, 2003 - 06:47 pm     Jack was cut a few rounds back, Lauram. He was black. He got drunk one night, passed out or fell asleep, and the guys carried him outside in his bed. |
Texannie | Wednesday, February 05, 2003 - 06:47 pm     Love Charlie's hair "au natural"! My daughter is almost 9 and only allowed to watch the rose ceremony and even she was dancing around when Russ got the boot! LOL Loved how Ryan was on the date!! Why did she even show Russ the envelope..to make him really ticked when she didn't sleep with him? |
Hermione69 | Wednesday, February 05, 2003 - 06:48 pm     Jack is one of the men from earlier in the show. Got cut at the second rose ceremony. |
Mak1 | Wednesday, February 05, 2003 - 06:48 pm     The reunion show looks like fun! |
Surealityjunkie | Wednesday, February 05, 2003 - 06:52 pm     Ryan looked kinda "tipsy" during the credits segment where they were showing outtakes with him, Russell, and Jack. Hmmmm, maybe there is a side of him that the camera isn't showing... Hermione69, she does have some of her expressions doesn't she. Maybe she watched 90210 and heard Kelly (Jennie) talk to Brandon or Dylan in a baby voice... |
Hermione69 | Wednesday, February 05, 2003 - 06:57 pm     Maybe on her being a 90210 fan! She and Jenny are about the same age, too, aren't they? Separated at birth... G'nite all! |
Tabbyking | Wednesday, February 05, 2003 - 06:59 pm     i think maybe the producers wanted her to keep russ for a while, because he was infatuated with her. they wanted his 'pushiness' and 'stalker material' image to bother some of us to keep us watching. and who wouldn't want to watch an episode that had san francisco as part of the backdrop? i remember disliking immensely: brandon, then robb, then the other rob on surviiivor, but it was so tame after they left! and i absolutely wanted to climb through my tv screen and throttle chiara each and every time they showed her trampiness, but it wasn't so exciting once she left! |
Jenhavins | Wednesday, February 05, 2003 - 07:01 pm     Mak...I don't have any issues with Charlie at all. Ryan might not have an aggressive enough personality and Charlie can compete with her toe to toe as far as that goes. It always seems like the soft spoken compassionate guy is the one that you want your mate to be like, but the thrill of someone that challenges you beats the compassion out hands down. I don't think she can go wrong with either guy. I don't think that she would be happy for a long period of time with Ryan. Charlie suits her more personality wise. Ryan to me is the one you wish you had, but once you have him, you don't want him. Maybe I have gotten wiser as I have gotten older and my views have changed! |
Mak1 | Wednesday, February 05, 2003 - 07:17 pm     I think Charlie suits her personality better, too. She wants more adventure or excitement than I think Ryan could offer her. |
Sherbabe | Wednesday, February 05, 2003 - 08:53 pm     Do you guys think Shamu was a word that Ryan uses for a part of his anatomy. That poem he read brings on a whole new meaning if that is the case. If I'm pretty sure it is. |
Mlt | Wednesday, February 05, 2003 - 08:57 pm     Did anyone besides me notice that at the end, when they were talking about the final show they said: 'Who will Trista choose? Will HE propose? Will SHE say yes?' I'm almost certain that is what they said. Do you think they were giving something away there? |
Seamonkey | Wednesday, February 05, 2003 - 09:42 pm     Shamu WAS in the picture, but who knows if it has a double meaning? Not I. Bye Bye Russ.. |
Tabbyking | Wednesday, February 05, 2003 - 11:33 pm     well shamu is that whale...but if it's a killer something else, too, what's the problem? okay, slap me! i still would find ryan the better match because he would be totally devoted to trista. charles seems more into himself. maybe it's the shaggy, greased back hair. he just seems fake to me. ryan is just a snuggle bunny. hop over here to mama... i think i would be afraid that charlie would not be faithful down the line. ryan just wants to get married and start out a long, happy marriage... all this is just my take on it, i realize, but he is a sweetheart. one thing for sure, if they are putting up 'ryan is in' and 'ryan is out' signs at the fire department, that boy won't be alone long, even if he isn't chosen by trista. also, i believe she slept with charlie. a maybe with ryan. who wants someone who 'sampled' other guys in that way within a day or two of your date? ick. i noticed they showed ryan to the left of trista in the preview of them together. they showed charlie to the right. and when she said, 'yes' or whatever to one of them, she was looking to her right. which if they hadn't moved, meant she was looking at charlie... |
Northstar | Wednesday, February 05, 2003 - 11:37 pm     Ryan is adorable. And I agree, he'll make a great husband someday, just not Trista's. It's Charlie for her. He's much more Hollywood. The whole deal between Russ and her reminds me of a Dr. Phil episode..the right fighters. Just get past it already. I actually think she kept him around because they knew each other from before and they made some agreement to keep him on for exposure. Baby talk..oh barf. I can't stand when women act coy like that. |
Fabnsab | Thursday, February 06, 2003 - 12:50 am     I have always hated Trista's babytalk, even from the first Bachelor. We all sit and make fun of her through the whole show- we're really mature. Ryan is too good for her. I am glad we got to see some of his fun side tonight. Charlie is for her but I don't like either of them so they're perfect together. Why on the Bachelor they ask" who's will leave with a broken heart?" but on this show they ask "who will leave with their ego shattered?" I think thats very telling of how they think the guys view this. Its a big peeing contest for them. I thought Trista got to be the one who proposed? Why would she be in the position to say yes or no? Shes the one choosing them. |
Djgirl5235 | Thursday, February 06, 2003 - 05:00 am     Fab - I think what they're going to do is have her offer them the rose, and then it's up to both of them if it's an engagement or not, and she'll let the guy do the gallant proposal. JMHO... I almost totally forgot this was on last night. I watched AI, and was flipping around, watching of all things Ripley's Believe it or Not and during a commercial, flipped around again, and saw the Bachelorette, and couldn't believe that I forgot!!! I completely missed Ryan's date, but got to see Russ make a complete fool of himself! One thing I've learned, is that if you can't resolve something the first time you talk about it, then you're not going to work together in the future, and that's what I took from their conversation last night... |
Mack | Thursday, February 06, 2003 - 05:09 am     I am admittedly not a big Charlie fan, not that I have anything particularly against him. Actually I think Trista done a "good job" of getting down to probably the best two choices under the conditions. I like Ryan better personally and I think he'll make a great husband and father to some woman. After last night's show there's little question in my mind though that Trista has a stronger feeling for Charlie than Ryan. Nothing wrong with that but....thinking back to Bachelor II....maybe we're being mislead a bit through editing. The "hit" of the show last night though was the "crash and burn" that Russ went through. That was just plain ugly and I'm almost surprised he didn't withdraw at the rose ceremony though I guess that's a question of ego more than rational thought. It was, at least as edited, plainfully obvious he was toast. I really noticed that Trista had no significant emotional moments at the rose ceremony....she knew full well who was staying and who wasn't. Meeting her parents next week will be interesting....who will they like better and why? |
Conejo | Thursday, February 06, 2003 - 06:00 am     I think Ryan is a great romantic guy but he is too good for Trista and she would get bored really fast! Didn't care for Charlies "nippage" on the beach at all! Also, do something with that d@mn hair! I think Russ hit a cord with Trista that p!ssed her off royaly. I think that there really was something more between them yet Trista was too scared to get further involved and hence the argument. IMO Trista really isn't looking for real love but she sure is enjoying this Hollywood gig. |
Texannie | Thursday, February 06, 2003 - 06:03 am     Did anyone notice how Russ kept saying "I came on this show to get to know you BETTER???" I know there was speculation that they had met before, and this just seemed to really confirm that to me. |
Cupcake | Thursday, February 06, 2003 - 06:51 am     This might be a little off topic, but I really liked the dress Trista was wearing last night at the rose ceremony. Actually, I have liked most of the clothes she has worn throughout this series. Do you think she picks them herself or does the show have someone to help her? I remember back in the day when I had a body like that ... that old saying comes to mind that youth is wasted on the young. |
Brenda1966 | Thursday, February 06, 2003 - 07:13 am     As much as I wanted her to cut Russ, I did feel a bit bad watching their date. She blames him for the Vegas encounter, but she willingly was led away and didn't tell the other guys she was leaving. She didn't want an aggressive guy, yet she strung Russ along for weeks. I think his true colors showed after he was cut -- he was defensive rather than sad. So did she sleep with Ryan and Charlie, or did she "sleep" with them? I can't imagine letting the whole world know you slept with one guy and then two days later slept with the other one. Ick! But I also can't imagine agreed to be engaged to someone without sleeping with them. Spending the night with a guy where all you do is kiss and cuddle is VERY intimate and hot -- I'm thinking that's all that happened, but I'm naive. I think she's going to pick Charlie and I think he's the right pick. Ryan is too much of a yes-man and Charlie provides more of a challenge. I think Charlie's a doll and he's who I would pick. |
Realbiz | Thursday, February 06, 2003 - 08:49 am     Just like watching the last Survivor - by the last few episodes we all figured out that Brian was gonna win - that is how I feel about Charlie after last night's show. Trista does like Ryan a lot, but her body language moved to a "higher level" with Charlie, too much chemistry and kisses between the two. I would be totally surprised if she didn't pick Charlie in the end. They are in love no doubt. |
Seamonkey | Thursday, February 06, 2003 - 10:54 am     I saw a few minutes of Regis and Kelly this morning (since some of you had reported that they talk about these shows).. Kelly was talking about not needing to see/hear lots of tongue kissing and that she never did that on the soap even with her husband.. then they talked about Trista saying she was "in love" with two of the guys and that Trista said she had to sleep with them to really know.. Kelly kept saying "No, Trista, No!!" I think it will be Charlie.. he lives in the right area for her ambitions and I don't see Trista settling down to be a fireman's wife. Some lucky woman will be happy with Ryan. |
Realfan | Thursday, February 06, 2003 - 11:43 am     I think Charlie is the guy--I have ever since the first show when she said she was bowled over when he stepped from the limo that first day. He seems a better match for her than Ryan. Ryan is sweet, but he needs a more down-home girl, IMO, one with more home-centered ambitions. All three guys pressed her last night, but in different ways. I notice this happens on every Bachelor/ette show. By the time it's down to three, the remaining three try to find out where they stand. I think Trista/Alex/Aaron have been instructed NOT TO SAY, or it would make for an anticlimactic show. Even though they have already made up their minds (Trista and Aaron had). I don't fault any of the contestant for trying, though. But it's telling HOW they tried. Charlie tried by saying "You're hard to read." He wanted to hear her say "This is the best date, you're my choice, don't worry!" And of course she couldn't. Russ went on the offensive, and consequently offended. LOL! He was just too pushy, IMO. And because Trista isn't as in to him, it backfired. ITA the Vegas thing was her fault, too, but it makes for a handy excuse, and who doesn't look for that when breaking up? As for her baby voice--I have one, too, and I use it proudly. I am also petite, so maybe that's why I use it. I don't know. To me, it comes out when I'm feeling intimate with someone, or sometimes when I'm feeling a little nervous. It's not even something conscious. Men do respond to it--Greg was asked on the XYZ version of the show on Monday what he thought of her baby voice. He smiled and said an enthusiastic "adorable." With that kind of positive reinforcement, no wonder she uses it sometimes. |
Jenhavins | Thursday, February 06, 2003 - 02:37 pm     Maybe I do think there is a time and place for the baby talk, and I don't think petiteness has anything to do with whether you can pull a baby voice off or not. I just think she uses it WAY TO MUCH. It is cute to a degree, but good god, if I were to talk like she does as much as she does (which the baby talk comes into play all the friggin time, not just here and there), I would be embarassed. I think she is a cute and well educated girl. She just needs to tone the cooing down a bit. |
