Fabnsab | Saturday, November 09, 2002 - 12:00 pm     I noticed alot of us are interested in this show and want to discuss it already so I thought I would make a thread so we can put any news we hear about it here. I agree with some comments in another thread about wishing they would have chosen another girl. She was a bit boring but I liked her. Her voice rising 1000 octaves when he told her something nice was annoying. Multiply that with 25 guys? No thanks. I don't think the show will work. I see it as a nice girl and 25 wannabe actors vying for their 15 minutes. It might be fun to see what they'll do to stay on though. Who am I kidding? I will watch! |
Fruitbat | Saturday, November 09, 2002 - 12:27 pm     I will watch but I share your doubt. |
Puttergirl | Saturday, November 09, 2002 - 03:06 pm     I liked her. I think it will be good, especially seeing the tables turned and having the guys have to grovel!! |
Sunriverose | Saturday, November 09, 2002 - 06:28 pm     Does anyone know if B2 was already scheduled ahead of the bachelorette? It seemed that Bachelorette was going to be on, then it seemed to just dissappear. Do you know when it will air? |
Puttergirl | Saturday, November 09, 2002 - 06:45 pm     Last I heard it was scheduled for January. I don't think it was ever scheduled to begin before Bachelor II, even though casting was done for it first. |
Cricket | Wednesday, November 13, 2002 - 07:47 pm     Sunriverrose, I heard the same thing. They announced her show and then nothing. This was a long time before the announcement of Bachelor II. |
Sbw | Wednesday, November 13, 2002 - 08:04 pm     It was scheduled for January. At least that is what they said earlier. |
Realfan | Friday, November 15, 2002 - 12:54 pm     ABC announced from the beginning that The Bachelorette would follow the second Bachelor. I'm certain they didn't switch them around. |
Fabnsab | Tuesday, November 19, 2002 - 11:00 am     Trista was hosting a VH1 show about the top bachelors in music. They said her upcoming abc show was the Bachelorette so it is definately still a go. |
Sunriverose | Tuesday, November 19, 2002 - 06:58 pm     Thanks for the info everyone |
Ryn | Thursday, December 12, 2002 - 04:58 am     As most of you have probably seen, the show will be on in January, I saw it hyped last night on ABC. I am guessing we will either change this area to discuss that show, or cCreate a new one very soon  |
Wilsonatmd | Thursday, December 26, 2002 - 03:13 pm     New Information.... Well the previews are up, it starts on January 8th at 9PM... and for the males out there, myself included, there is a brief interview with Trista and some pics in the January edition of Maxim (and if you know the magazine, you know how the pics are ).......as well as some pics on the Maxim website... .... and the Maxim pics and the interview are about as close as I'm probably gonna get to actually watching this series....What??? I'm just not interested in it, and I'm just providing this information for others... |
Realfan | Thursday, January 02, 2003 - 09:06 am     I think it'll be a kick to see how the guys handle this situation. When the women are kicked off in the Bachelor, they usually blame themselves (what did I do wrong? I should have been more open). From what I've seen on other reality shows with similar situations, the men will probably act like they don't care or blame Trista (I didn't like her that much anyway). The men have an advantage over the women, in that they KNOW who the bachelorette is. I wonder if the producers felt that would give them a better selection of serious contenders. |
Realbiz | Thursday, January 02, 2003 - 03:00 pm     I'm a Trista fan. I'm ready for the show and hope that she has found true love...or is it possible meeting guys this way? |
Bakerygirl | Thursday, January 02, 2003 - 05:12 pm     Has anyone looked at the guys on the bachelorette site? I looked at them all and none of them really stood out to me on looks.. So I hope they have good personailties.. I can't wait for it to start. The Bachelorette and The Mole on the same night!! Can't wait! |
Realfan | Friday, January 03, 2003 - 10:36 am     Bakery, I just went and looked. Yeah, I thought they looked cuter on the promo ads than in these photos. But then, guys look cute in tuxes. How will she ever be able to remember their names? Either their name starts with J (Jack, Jamie, Josh, Jeff) or they're an apostle, or they're named BRIAN! (There are no less than four Brians!). I hope she's ready to take notes during the intro cocktail party, or she might name the wrong guy! I think she put down a preference for blue eyes. There are a LOT of men with blue eyes, pretty blue eyes (their best feature, at least in the photos). The guy with long hair looks like a girl. Not a good hairstyle for him. And Duane TOTALLY looks like a Duane. |
Fabnsab | Friday, January 03, 2003 - 09:51 pm     Not trying to be mean but these guys are NOT the male equivalent to the women from the shows. They pick 25 very hot women for the men to choose from. These guys are downright average, IMO. |
Max | Friday, January 03, 2003 - 10:15 pm     LOL, I had the same thought Realfan did about the guy with the long hair! Definitely girlish looks in that picture. Hopefully, it's just a bad picture. Here's my favorite reason a bachelor listed for why he'd make a good husband for Trista: "Because I had a great father and am heir to a legendary Mississippi shrimp company." Oh yeah, Rob, that's why EVERY girl picks a husband! LOL And how about GreggH who gives the reason, "I'm old." He's 34! If he thinks that's old, I'd hate to be around him at 44! LOL Or Jeff who says, "I am ready to move on with my life. Move past the whole dating scene and bad relationships." He's 24. Trista is 29. These guys range from 24 to 41. I'm glad to see they kept a wide range of ages, although it's a bit broader than they cast the females in The Bachelor, especially on the upper side. I agree that all these guys look fairly average. Hard to tell for sure from just head shots, though, and tuxedo-clad guys always tend to look good. So, I'll reserve judgement on the looks department until I see the first episode. |
Kady | Friday, January 03, 2003 - 10:52 pm     Where is Puttergirl? Are we gonna play a picking game? Did ya'll notice the first two guys were Billy and Bob? That just struck my funny bone BillyBob!!
Bachelor's I will have to give them another lookover when I'm not so tired. A few looked cute but I need to read the little bio's to make my picks. |
Car54 | Friday, January 03, 2003 - 11:24 pm     Rob sounds like Forrest Gump. |
Shortnsweet | Saturday, January 04, 2003 - 04:33 pm     I think Charlie and Greg T. are cute. I really like Greg T's answer as to why he would make a great husband "Interesting introductions lead to interesting relationships." This might be a more honest answer than many of the others. |
Realfan | Monday, January 06, 2003 - 12:42 pm     I thought the same thing, Car! He's Forrest, Forrest Gump. I don't know that I agree that the women were better looking than these men. I thought a lot of the women were pretty average. Gwen, for instance, looked like an alien and had a tiny nose and huge forehead. (Not to say she wasn't sweet, talking purely features here.). Even Helene has average features. I won't know for sure until I see these guys walk and talk, though. Pictures tell nothing, and often average guys grow on me or handsome ones start to turn me off, depending on their personalities. |
Jhezzie | Wednesday, January 08, 2003 - 05:37 pm     Gee. I peeked a look at the bachelors and most of them look related to each other. |
Vixeninvegas | Thursday, January 09, 2003 - 12:31 pm     I saw the following on another site – got permission to share with you - thought ya all would enjoy the pictures (I sure did - some are yummy) - :P The poster thought one of the guys, Jeff was familar & said "sure enough Jeff is Jeff Popovich, a undergraduate business graduate of the University of Miami who played defense on the football team and graduated in 1999 or 2000. He played in the NFL and the World League, and was an Ambercombie and Fitch cover page model for its summer, 1999 catalog" A&F pic: http://anfmodels.net/1999Summer/ ABC Bachelorette bio pic: abc.abcnews.go.com/primet...c_jeff.jpg And the ABC bio gives the same height and weight as the UM online media guide gave for the last year Jeff Popvich played at UM (and the age matches up as well). :::::edited to say I sure don't know how to add a dang link - I hope you all can figure out the address - I cutted & pasted it:::::: |
Kady | Thursday, January 09, 2003 - 12:46 pm     Here's the link..... Jeff |
