Yea Brenda, she thought he was her forever.smh
JPJ , i though he was fake crying and his ambush, not cool at all at the wedding.
Was that wedding real? Or just for the show?

I admit this is only my 3rd season of watching but I'm really disappointed in the producers. The Dani thing was such an obvious set-up. Dean looks like he was brought back just to be a paid escort to make Caelynn feel better.
Caelynn and her style of drama are just boring. If a man talks to her for more then 10 minutes and makes out with her, OMG - it must be real!
Watching John Paul just reminds me of watching a stoned alcoholic who seems funny for a short time but quickly tires on you. It's not pretty when they lose it.
I did enjoy seeing Crystal and Chris still together. I did not care for either when they were on the show but they have really brought out the best in other.
I'd rather see more of the mature and stable people like Mike, Sydney, Chris, Dereck and Tayshia. Keeping only those who would cause drama at the reception was just boring.

Which reminds me - Does anyone watch Four Weddings and a Funeral on Hulu? Was anyone besides me waiting for a Hotel.com ad to appear during the wedding ceremony?

JPJ was really showing his young age. Caelin flipping her hair back and forth drives me crazy.

JPJ is just so goofy. I swear I don't get the attraction to him.

A lot of people on this show just seem too young and immature to be ready for a relationship. I think a lot of them are just there for some screentime, parties on the beach and maybe a little romance.
JPJ and Caelynn should get together. Both very immature.

Watched last night for maybe the second time. I was bored to death. I did like the "stagecoach" reference because it reminded me that it wa a stage coach reference that got Kat into big trouble on Big Brother.
It seems to be the gathering spot for reality peeps ( I do not call them stars).
I guess its nice that some people do find their match put featuring people like JPJ who needs his word for the day calendar to speak, it has no basis in reality at all. he yells at Derek for having a "podcast" and I have a perpetual , what the heck, look on my face.
All of the franchises have become so rinse and repeat I can't waste the hours anymore.

I haven’t found this show as fun this year. That is totally down to the bland cast who I’m not even sure of some of their names.
JPJ seems stoned all the time and his storyline seems veryyy staged and phoney. Despite what they keep saying he does not seem intelligent. He seems like the frat boy, very immature. His thing for Tayisha, did I miss something? Did they have one date? Angela needs to unpurse her lips and I hate that they have again thrown someone in to manufacture drama. They can do that all on there own.

I am in agreement, the drama seems forced on them by production. None of them appear to be able to handle adversity, least of all, JPJ. Tayshia acts like she's all knowing for everyone else (i.e. Hannah), yet, she is playing Derek and JPJ off each other. Derek seems way to mature to be on this show. God forbid you should have a discussion about the issues between 2 people to try to resolve the conflict! And, like Jasper, I have no idea who some of the contestants are!!

Ditto to every thing Missy, Jasper and Kooklie said. Stoned drunks are a bore. The mature ones who are left have given up and are simply following a script at this point.
I'm beginning to think that the days of reality shows are slowly dying.

Derek seems like a real sweetheart. I'm not sure why he is being treated so poorly unless it is scripted. JPJ, unless he is also following a script, is really an awkward character. I agree with Missy, intelligent is not a good word to describe him, nor mature. To mention his name and Derek's in the same sentence is crazy.
I think we are all being played.

Well, in real life, JPJ is a financial analyst. So, he has to have some brains to do that. Every once in awhile, I see some intelligence in what and how he expresses himself. But, I am worried that it's leaking out when he cries and blows his nose.. Mostly, I think he's getting a weird edit.

I just think JPJ is very emotionally immature. He may be intelligent, but he's pretty childish. I was super turned off about him when Derek was trying to talk to him like an adult and he refused to listen to anything Derek had to say. Not only is it terribly rude, it's just not okay to treat somebody like that who's trying to reach an understanding.
I felt really bad for Derek. When my hubby and I were dating, I thought he was way more into me than I was into him. I think I broke up with him 2 or 3 times, but we worked together and he just kept wooing me. One day I was starving and hadn't brought any lunch. He went to the store and bought me a pesto chicken sandwich, chips, a soda and a brownie for desert! And we weren't even together. One of my girlfriends said, "That is a nice guy." So I took a second look and here we are 21 years later. We have a running joke whenever we see anyone having trouble in their relationship that "he just needs to buy her a sandwich." 
Not every relationship is love at first sight. Some take a little longer to develop.

To me, that's the scripted part. Then he forgets the rest of his lines and starts slapping himself.

That is a great story.
Just like Carly and Evan. They sure didn't hit it off at first but Evan kept trying and it seems they have built a great relationship that's led to a nice marriage and family.

That was such a fun season to watch! I couldn’t believe it when I first read the spoilers that they were a couple.

Yes, all the drama seems so forced now. Even so,as a young woman who always chose the bad boy ( until I met my husband),I’m interested to see if Caelynn will leave with Dean.

Did anyone feel likeBlake was at all sincere? Iit seemed so contrived. Good try though. Maybe he was trying out for the role of Bachelor.

Yes, Blake seemed to be trying to hard. Trying to force things. He just needs to grow up a bit more and quit jumping from lady to lady.
