Sad to hear this.
I wonder how the show will handle this.

Chris Harrison on the View said they hadn't discussed it yet (is Chris a producer?)
Reality Steve said Eric had been cut, but did get a one on one date with Andi. They are still filming, RS has the 4 guys on hometown dates
One of Eric's friends said Eric was experienced in parasailing. He seemed like a fun, adventurous guy, very sad

Eric actually got the first one on one date with Andi so he's fairly prominent early on. He lasted a few weeks because he did travel with the guys. Also, when he left the show, he left before a rose ceremony. RS was going to spoil it but now he's unsure how to handle the spoiling because he doesn't know yet how production is going to handle this.

Steve's article is more interesting but I guess mine is the start of seeing how it will be handled on the show.

My hope is that they will tell Andi and the remaining men as soon as possible, if they haven't already, to avoid them finding out in public.

Sea, I watched the two videos. I didn't see how ABC is going to handle this. Was there another video that I missed?

RS talks a little bit more about Eric and gives a few more Easter eggs for the season. Evidently, the family will have absolutely no say-so in how Eric is edited on TV. As I mentioned above, Eric wasn't eliminated at a rose ceremony. RS is now saying he is not going to post what happens with Eric leaving until he sees how it plays out on TV. It would seem that RS is being very respectful to the deceased and his family. So it sounds like something went down this season with Eric.

I think RS is correct that no matter how ABC spins it, they will be criticized. I was impressed by his article and the tone he took.
Tres, I think he said she is down to home visits and they aren't sure if they should tell her now or just wait until she chooses.. It would be hard if she was all sad while making a decision and since he was gone already and not just be a rose ceremony, who knows what feelings would come up.

I didn't realize Eric; was on the upcoming season. That's painful.... I am so sorry for his family's loss.

RS will be posting the breakdown of the F4 and the "lucky"  winner later today. I will bring over the link when it is posted.

RS has his spoilers for the F4 and the "lucky" winner. RS absolutely nailed it BEFORE they started shooting with regard to this particular person.

Thanks Lexie. Now I'll debate reading it (but I usually succumb for this show).

You almost have to read the spoilers to appreciate how much of a train-wreck this show is. At least three of the men didn't really care for Andi. Yet, Chris Harrison will at some point in the first show talk about all of the videos they received from men from all over the country for Andi's season - which is total bullshit. Andi was announced as the next Bachelorette on JP's AFTR show (on a Monday night), and they started filming that Friday night. The men for her season had already been "officially" selected a month before it was publicly announced that Andi was the Bachelorette, and they were already in hotel rooms in seclusion.
Honestly, I don't think Andi is going to be a great Bachelorette. I do not think she has the personality to pull it off.

I read Reality Steve's episode by episode and Final 4 spoilers this morning.
One thing he mentioned was Harper Collins sent him a copy of Courtney Robertson's book "I Didn't Come Here to Make Friends: Confessions of a Reality Show Villain". He said if you like this show, if you watch this show, and you enjoy the gossip and everything that goes with it, Courtney’s book is a quick, easy read that you’ll definitely learn stuff from that you didn’t know. Release date is June 24.

Hate to say this, but I think many people will watch this year to see how they handle Eric's death.

I think you're right Iluv. It will be interesting to say the least how they handle it since he didn't really leave on good terms.

I hope they don't sugar-coat it. His death shouldn't change how it happened. But then again, there isn't a lot of reality here anyway.

I truly love this thread, but it makes me giggle we don't post the actual names of the spoiled on RS site - and some times his site gets so much traffic, I can't get to it... ( but I appreciate there are legal things and can't c/p etc)
Eric is on the show right now - the 1 on 1 date

Jimmer, from what Chris said before the first episode they just stated that he was on the season and we'd see that and told a bit about what he had been doing and that he died.. pretty straightforward, really.
Not sure what will be said about him leaving the show, though.

I didn't watch the premier until today, and am now watching tonight's episode. Missed the beginning of Eric and Andi's one on one, but have been watching their dinner conversation.
It is heartbreaking to watch knowing he's died. What an interesting man he was. When he was talking about Syria and texting his parents he loved them thinking he wasn't going to get out of the country alive, I got a lump in my throat.

I agree.. he seemed to have been such a great guy and it nags at me.. what if he had stayed (since we know he left on his own) and was in the final 2, then he might still be alive, since he wouldn't have been where he was when he died, but still taping the show.
The misic was pretty poignant when they were sledding on the mountain.
