Ryn | Wednesday, February 12, 2003 - 05:49 pm     In case anyone wants to discuss - I won't be watching til later. |
Hippyt | Wednesday, February 12, 2003 - 06:03 pm     Poor Bob!!! And Rob looks still heart-broken too. |
Jenhavins | Wednesday, February 12, 2003 - 06:06 pm     but bob is lookin good tonight. He was my favorite! |
Hermione69 | Wednesday, February 12, 2003 - 06:07 pm     Bob is adorable tonight. Wow! What a cool guy. |
Sabbatia | Wednesday, February 12, 2003 - 06:12 pm     Bob was adorable...and Jamie is just my type! |
Hippyt | Wednesday, February 12, 2003 - 06:15 pm     Poor Jamie,he suffers panic attacks,I do too. It must have taken all his guts to even do this show! |
Hippyt | Wednesday, February 12, 2003 - 06:17 pm     Oh,and Greg isn't there,interesting what with his recent arrest! |
Hermione69 | Wednesday, February 12, 2003 - 06:19 pm     Hippyt, I went through a period of about 18 months where I would get them occasionally so I sympathize also. They are frightening. I still have trouble breathing when I am very anxious, but the attacks have faded. I like Jamie on this recap show better than I did on the show itself. I like Bob more also! What did you guys think about Brook? |
Grannyg | Wednesday, February 12, 2003 - 06:20 pm     I'm still in love with Jamie!! And Bob was absolutely adorable!! |
Jenhavins | Wednesday, February 12, 2003 - 06:20 pm     I thought the same thing when he was talking about Greg T. Apt. She did seem shallow. And there are pills and shots for allergies. No reason not to get to try to even know him. |
Jenhavins | Wednesday, February 12, 2003 - 06:22 pm     I didn't fall in love with my husband because of his lifestyle or how much money he made...I fell in love with him because of his warm and kind heart and sense of humor. |
Hermione69 | Wednesday, February 12, 2003 - 06:24 pm     I think she seemed condescending to Jamie about his supposed insecurities, this from a girl who has so many walls up. I liked her very much the first episode and it has been steadily downhill from there. |
Hermione69 | Wednesday, February 12, 2003 - 06:25 pm     OMG, they are WILD!!!!!! |
Halfunit | Wednesday, February 12, 2003 - 06:28 pm     It's an hour and a half drive for me to Cleveland. BRB, I'm going to smack the snot outta Jack! |
Grannyg | Wednesday, February 12, 2003 - 06:29 pm     The guy's house was the funniest thing!! They must have really had a ball!! They were sooooooo funny!! |
Jenhavins | Wednesday, February 12, 2003 - 06:31 pm     She was condescending and I do understand that this show is about her, but I just think she has this attitude that it should be an honor just to be in her presence. I don't understand how you can mug down with someone on national tv and then try to blame it all on him. She did have some part in that entire tryst. I think she was just embarrassed about the entire situation. And while Greg T. was on the show, I didn't think the Apt. comments were necessary. Does she realize how much an apt. costs per month in NY City? To me she is shallow and vain. I am glad Brooke called her on it. It made her mad because it was true. |
Grannyg | Wednesday, February 12, 2003 - 06:31 pm     granny watches the tv to see if she can see halfunit smack jack |
Hippyt | Wednesday, February 12, 2003 - 06:32 pm     Hermione,I agree with you completely,the more I see of her the less I like her. I think she used the horses with Brooke as an excuse because she wasn't attracted to him. |
Jenhavins | Wednesday, February 12, 2003 - 06:39 pm     I have to say I am glad she found the man for her. I am happy she is in love. I wish her the best of luck. |
Emt911 | Wednesday, February 12, 2003 - 07:04 pm     Did she make a choice tonight, or do we have to wait another week to find out? |
Hermione69 | Wednesday, February 12, 2003 - 07:06 pm     We have to wait another week. This was like a talk show with all the rejects. |
Emt911 | Wednesday, February 12, 2003 - 07:29 pm     They sure do drag these things out, don't they? Thanks for the answer, Hermione69. |
Hummingbird | Wednesday, February 12, 2003 - 08:46 pm     I AM SO SICK OF HER!!!!!! What an ego! Heaven forbid we might think Russ dumped her! |
Fabnsab | Wednesday, February 12, 2003 - 10:01 pm     Halfunit, I live in cleveland and would gladly volunteer my services to "smack the snot outta Jack." Any excuse to be around a bunch of firemen is fine by me! I do think she is shallow in general but the horse thing doesn't bother me. If you are already feeling things for a person and then you let them go for such a reason its one thing, but why even start to pursue something if it isn't the best situation for either of you? She had 24 others to choose from. They're all good guys. She had to find creative ways to dismiss them. If I were the bachelorette and one of the guys early on told me he was allergic to cats, I(with 7 cats) would use that knowledge to narrow it down. |
Muse | Wednesday, February 12, 2003 - 10:44 pm     I agree about Brook, Fabnsab. It'd be one thing if Trista had feelings for him and then decided that she wasn't willing to try to work around the allergies, or if he just worked with horses but kept his home/private life separate. But he's a guy who loves being a cowboy, lives on a ranch, and owns a number of horses. And since she barely knew him and had a lot of other wonderful guys who *didn't* have any strikes against them, I don't blame her for not giving him a rose. I think he was pretty aggressive and off-putting with the way he initiated the conversation with her, too. That being said, though...I think her comments about Greg's apartment were pretty shallow. Even if that wasn't a reason why she eliminated him, her obvious disgust really said a lot about her. My opinion of Bob went up after this episode...same goes for Jamie and Rob. Bob's humor seemed more genuine to me (as opposed to an attempt to gain attention or a self-defense mechanism), and Rob seemed less weird. Jamie seems like a great guy...I noticed that Trista seemed to be pitying him a little and trying to say things to make him feel better, but he kind of brushed it off (in a nice way). And I didn't mind Russ, but I never really have. I think Trista tried to blame everything on him, though. And while he obviously didn't handle some things well and tried to put a certain spin on things, I *do* think that he kind of gave up on their final date. He no longer tried to do exactly what she wanted him to do, but just explained what he was thinking, and why he was disappointed in her (even when it was obviously pissing her off). I think it's because he knew she was no longer interested, but Trista seemed to be trying to say she was controlling things up until the end on the reunion show. Bah. Leave him alone, Trista. Poor clueless guy's getting enough grief from the media and the public. |
