The Bachelor - I Just Knew It!

[icyfroth]

While I was visiting in Mackay, my DD and GDD made me watch the Bachelor. No options. I watched the last 3 episodes but missed out on last night's finals, still travelling.

I had a bet on that he'd pick Sam, judging by the body language and long searching looks at each other.

This morning I read in the News he'd proposed to...

Spoiler

Sam!

But! OMG! a few minutes ago I read...

True love can be fickle, can't it?

spoiler.

Callers also phoned up Kyle and Jackie O this morning claiming they knew inside information.

One listener claims that Blake has been texting Lisa on the side, while another says he is pursuing second runner-up Louise.

Another caller on 2DayFM's Dan & Maz Show suggested yesterday that Lisa is pregnant with Blake's child. Talk about a bombshell!

Everyone that meets him thinks he is so genuine and he's said the same thing to every single woman and family. I can learn something from this guy.

Hahaaaaa!

It makes a TV reality show and that's what viewers want. Personally I found the whole show cringeworthy. Blakes voice and honeyed tones reminded me of the "Love God", Richard Mercer and his now defunct Love Song Dedications segment on Mix before it became Kiis. That show used to make me hit the scan button pronto.

I missed out on the Block while I was away!

I agree it is cringeworthy.  But no reality shows are reality.

What is the story of his father, do you know?  Is/was he South African?  Is that why it ended in Cape Town?

Glad he didn't give Jessica a chance, she had a permanent facial expression straight out of Deliverance.

Welcome back, Icyfroth.

I don't know Blake's story, when I asked the girls, they didn't know much about him either.

I guess it was his and the girl's 15 minutes of fame and I hope everyone had a fun time out of it, at least.

BBL.

I watched it for pure entertainment and enjoyed it even though I realized most of it was scripted. 

I did a back flip when he told Lisa in the final ep

Spoiler

I have so much love for you

then made the distinction with Sam

Spoiler

But I'm in love with you

Duh!!!!

[dreamworld-au]

Haha.You are so fun

[the_bob_delusion]

The bachelor doesn't set a great foundation for everlasting love. Who knew. 

At least Jess got out in time, she at least managed to show one bit of common sense. 

[j*oono]

I hope Sam gets to keep the $58,000 ring.  Keep the diamond and dump the dirtbag.

[freddie*rooster]

Hahahaha the ring didn't even fit her.
