Does this start Monday? Looking forward to another enjoyable trainwreck. I have to say, this show is beautifully filmed. The places they go are fabulous.

That is one of the things that I enjoy the most about the show. The amazing locations and the way that the show is shot is beautiful.

It's tough seeing that one guy knowing he died in that terrible accident. I was bummed she cut Rudy the cute lawyer. I liked him!

uuuuggghhh... I think Andi will be a terrible Bachelorette. I just don't think she has the "it" factor.

Any season will be better than last. I like Andy well enough. Although she is already bothering me by repeating her lines.
The scenery and the travel is the best thing about the show.

I tried, I really tried, to watch the show last night, but I could not stay interested and think this is a season I will skip. Not sure if it is because I find Andi kinda fake or if it is just that I am tired of the show. Either way, my Monday nights are free for the summer : - )

But the lamp was funny, in a very strange way.

The lamp was kind of funny... someone in production was on their game that night.

When Chris showed up at the gate wanting to meet the Bachelorette, I seriously could not remember who he was! All I could remember was that I didn't like him for some reason, but I blocked the rest out. Glad she refused him entrance.

That whole thing with Chris Bukowski was set up by production. According to RS, Andi didn't know he was going to show up, but Chris Harrison and the rest of the staff knew because they flew him out there and put him up in a hotel.
TPTB think we are that stupid.

Isn't Chris the one that wouldn't take "no" after Emily dumped him?
Are you sure it was set up by production Lexie?

I don't doubt that the whole drama around it was set up, but I do believe that Chris expressed an interest, a persistent interest. We have seen former contestants do this (and be brought onto the show). And then production jumped at the chance to create some drama around it.
I don't remember exactly why, but I think it was his time on Bach PAd. But my gut tells me Chris was ick and she made the right choice.

It was already admitted that production set the whole thing up. Chris isn't paying to fly across the country and pay for a hotel and expenses out of his own pocket for a girl he never met. They did the same thing with Ben a couple of years ago when they brought that crazy stalker girl to his cocktail party.
Chris also made a huge slip-up which I'm surprised editing didn't catch (or they didn't care because everyone knows the show is scripted). He said that the had been there for a week. Andi had only been named the Bachelorette three days earlier on the ATFR show.

Dogdoc, I think you are thinking of Ryan. He wouldn't take "no" for an answer when Emily dumped him.
Production will probably reward Chris B. with a spot on this summer's Bachelor Paradise for going along with their little stunt. Chris doesn't do anything unless there is something in it for him.

Thanks Lexie, I probably am thinking of Ryan.
The Bachelors are all starting to run together for me!

One thing I need to clarify in my above post. Chris B. said he had been there for a week, but he had actually only flown out there that day. He couldn't have left a week earlier to meet Andi because Andi had only been chosen three days earlier as the Bachelorette.

This is from Reality Steve's recap from Episode 1 regarding Chris B.
"-Now we’re back to the Chris Bukowski nonsense. Chris Harrison goes out to the end of the driveway to talk to Chris B. and basically says it’s up to Andi. Chris B. begs to see her, even saying he’s been in LA seven days just waiting to show up (completely fabricated and producers knew the whole time Chris wanted on the show since he flew out there on their dime. Chris Harrison is still even trying to get people to believe it was organic) and has even brought flowers that he’s trying to impress the security guard with, but it’s not working. Even that guy knows how many girls from this franchise Chris has been with and realizes his flower trick is a load of crap. Man, when security guards are rejecting your advances, it’s time to give up. So Chris Harrison goes to explain to Andi that Chris Bukowski from Emily’s season and “Bachelor Pad” is here and wants to be on the show. If Andi knew who Chris was, she certainly didn’t acknowledge it. Or maybe they just didn’t show it. Whatever the case, she thinks it wouldn’t be fair to the guys she already met if she let Chris on the show, so she tells Chris Harrison to tell Chris B. essentially, “Get to steppin’.”
-The ring leader goes back down the driveway to inform Chris his horniness isn’t wanted on this season, Andi wants no part of him, but he did a great job in convincing America he’s truly looking for love when we see him in a few months on “Bachelor in Paradise.” Chris is not going down without a fight. “I’ve been here 7 days on my own…I have to talk to her…can’t just walk away…I’m not leaving…” Ummmm, yes you are. No one wants you here, your little stunt was sniffed out a month ago when I spoiled it, and you’re an embarrassment to this franchise. Other than that, things seem to be going really well for you. Looks like you’ve really moved from your previous two appearances and are trying to put the “Bachelor” franchise behind you and create your own identity. Or not. If there was a nozzle that could be any douchier than Chris Bukowski right now, I don’t know who it is. Gee, can’t wait to see him on my TV again come August 4th. Ugh. He gives Chris Harrison the fake roses, they hug it out, and Chris was on a plane later that day tweeting “#NoRegrets. Uh huh. Sure buddy. I’d have plenty of regrets if I were you. Kinda like the women who wake up to you the next day.

Meh. I never can get into The Bacherolette. I gave it half hour. Andi seems kind of fake, I guess they all are.

Didn't think I would enjoy Andi being the B'ette but she has gotten some great guys. There was one jerk, Craig, who got drunk on the GD and jumped in the pool fully clothed. He's gone. Eric, the one who died, was her first 1on1 date and I'm surprised that he didn't kiss her. Second 1on1 was with Chris and there was some romance. Carl and Nick S. were also sent home.
But, there is a lot of eye candy among the guys. I'm liking Josh and Marcus as front runners.

Watching now and the sort of sad music seems purposeful during the Eric date.
He seems like he was a great guy .
