Jesse only does what the producers tell him to do, Sincebb1. It's his job and in his contract. I still like him better than Harrison.
I'm glad the rest of you feel about Rachel as I do: that she's a self-righteous little beotch. I find her very unlikeable and have since the beginning of the show. I'm not that fond of Gabby either. This whole season was a gigantic waste of time -- except for the cruise ship. I enjoyed that!
I'm just watching last night's show now, in between folding laundry. Only another hour to go. This show is painful to watch. Entertainment at its worst.

Okay, I'm back to say I CAN'T F***ING BELIEVE they brought Aven out right in front of Tino! Why didn't they just dismiss the poor guy from the stage first? That's how shi**y the producers of this show are, that's why. That was just cruel.

Yeah, I can't believe how poorly they treated Tino. And how they used Aven. I think it all made them ALL look foolish.
And yes, all the secrecy about the "private" things going on. Makes me think she was having a mental breakdown. I found it interesting that they basically assumed people had looked up spoilers about Tino and what he did. I knew nothing of the allegations!
Lastly, it was interesting to me that the basically spoiled that Gabby was engaged because we could see her ring in the footage when she visited Rachel right before Rachel gave the ring back.

I think Chris and Jesse are one in the same. The same voice, same mannerisms, same venacular. I like Zach bc he called Rachael out on her BS after the overnight.
Gino will have no problems with the ladies, especially after watching what this show did to him.

I did like Chris, partly because he was a bit flippant about things at times. Jesse seems a bit more geniune (as much as one can be on a show like this). So I don't really mind him. But if he could inject some more humor that would work for me.
Yes, Tino is probably relieved now. He survived the beating on the show and now he can talk to all the ladies slipping into his DM's and hopefully not fall for another drama queen.

Rachel came off as a spoiled little princess who needs to be on a pedestal. Ugh. So unlikeable.
Brenda, I think Harrison had done this show for so long, he felt comfortable making jokes sometimes. Jesse's still finding his footing. I find the change refreshing, but realize almost everything is directed by the producers, so he doesn't have a lot of leeway.

I just watched the After The Rose Ceremony on On Demand…..where is the barf emoji? Rachel acting like a first class b***h. Oh cry me a river listening to Kristal Barstow (however you spell her name). I never liked her either. I think I’m in a bad mood after watching this. Yup. Tino dodged a BIG bullet!

The whole season was off. So much drama and cancelling chances to actually get to know they guys and the absolute insistence that there must be a proposal, when after this amount of time it would be so much more logical to date with intent to see if it was a great match. And so much more.
And the "live shows".. yes, many uncomfortable moments that they tried to force on people. And constant promotion of other shows, which I could just fast forward through.
Had I never started watching this show, I probably wouldn't be watching today, just a habit. Heck, if they went to streaming on a paid app, I would be fine walking away.
Yes, I thought Gabby's dress was straight out of DWTS wardrobe
Zach is kind of meh to me.

Yeah, I thought he kind of lost it after Rachel told him she was going to cut him... didn't he go running to Jesse or a producer and complain that Rachel did a 180°? He seems to feed into drama easily....oh I guess that's what they want?

I don't even remember Zach from this past season. I remember his face, but that's all. Alltogether a very forgetable season. Except for that cruise ship. I'm obsessed with that cruise ship.

So, after this season, I have taken this franchise off of my TIVO. I won't miss it if it does not show up on my recorded shows. I do have one last question, and I have looked a little online, but not found it.
What was the big secret that Rachel kept threatening to share with EVERYONE that Tino kept saying not to share?

Christy they never said on the show...and no one has said elsewhere on any other platform.
Rachel for some reason was going to therapy according to what they said. Tino said he was so very happy she was finally going to therapy and "doing so good at it".
I'm wondering if there was something in particular that she was addressing? So maybe it was like a mental health issue somehow? Could have been something that was her issue that then became their issue. Or something that happened between them.
I'm sure we'll find out through someone, somewhere at some point. I do know that it seems like their relationship is completely kaput.
Also hearing that Gabby and Erich's relationship probably won't last either. I can just imagine the show was imploding because they would have gotten to the end of the season without a proposal. They probably had a lot to do with trying to keep the couples together. I can see them begging Gabby (if not heavily influencing) her not break up before the end of the show lol

I don't think Rachel wanted the "secret" exposed. Seems like they kind of agreed not to air a certain segment of their dirty laundry, but my guess is it pertains to Rachel's mental health.
It will make me sad if Gabby and Erich break up,but chances are they will. The show is just not spending enough time on couples getting to know each other. Too much time spent on drama instead.

There is a lot about Erich and an ex ...that is coming out. Not the doctored up version they told on the show. Plus some other stuff. So I'm thinking it's going unravel

Well, it only took 2 months....Gabby and Erich officially announced they were going to "support each other from afar". That's a new one. We all know relationships start falling apart way before they actually announce it to the public. I'm thinking they had....one good week? lol

I read about this earlier this week, although I had noticed the engagement ring was missing from her left hand on DWTS and he wasn't in the audience this week (or maybe even last, I'm not sure). No big surprise.

I guess their "fake it until you make it" didn't work. Not surprised at this one.

I never got into the Rachel/Gabby season. Watched the first episode and decided that I didn’t care for either of them. I tried a couple of times more, but always switched over to something else about 10 minutes into it. .

The Gabby and Erich split just made People Magazine.. I guess she was more interested in all the contacts made on DWTS than a Bachelorette relationship..

I thought this tweet funny...."All the women screaming at Gabby’s ring on the very night she addressed the Erich breakup on DWTS is quite comical"

LOL. I can't wait to see tonights show. I'm also wondering if Rachel is pre-breakup as well? I thought I heard someone tell her "congrats". Hmmm....

They were both wearing their engagement rings, so it was just after filming ended.

Not sure if Rachel had actually announced her break up? But for sure, both women knew the wheels were falling off the cart, but hadn't made it public yet. Honestly I think we all knew neither couple had a chance.
I thought it was in questionable taste for Gabby and Rachel to say that Logan was a flip-floper. Gabby was happy to accept him, give him a rose and make out with him after he flip-floped.
For the most part, it has been a sad bunch of Bachelor Nation guys and girls they picked this season.
I do think there is so much bias and backlash attached to each contestant and couple in the whole franchise. It must be hard to date anyone after. Everyone is in your business, judging you and on social media. Although some things that come out later are quite eye opening. Got to say a few things I've read about some are not surprising
Well they have enough content for a two part reunion...unless they feature Wells and Ashley and Jarrod lol

They surely have a way of dragging things out and repeating scenes over and over, but I feel like they have enough content for 4 hours. First we need the final rose ceremony, and then all the breakups and leaving in limos. Then the overnight dates and any pending proposals or weddings. Then the reunion show where we can show more clips and rehash the nightmare.
