Another episode of The Bachelorette.

The men had moved to the bunk house while Jillian lives in the huge mansion. There will be three dates: two group dates and one one-on-one date. In the group dates, Jill will give out one rose while there will arose on the individual date. If the man didn't get the rose, he will go home. Also, not every man will go out on a date that week.

The first group date consists of Micheal, Brian, Sasha, Tanner P., Wes, Matt, Brad, and Ed as they headed outside to a pool party with Jill. Then, Micheal spend some one-on-one time with her, and she later came back to get the rose. The guys assumed that she would give it to Micheal, but she instead took it and ran. Chris Harrison told them that the party is over, and they have to go find her in teams of two and following the clues. The first clues said that they have to make a "quick change" and led them to a restaurant where they change to waiter's uniform. Then, the next clue tell them to go to the kitchen. The next clue had them travel to the jewelry store where the team have to pick one of four necklaces for Jill. The final clue takes them to a safe house where Jill was waiting. The first team to arrive is Brad and Wes, and Jill have to pick one of them to have dinner with her in the safe. She picked Wes, which upsets Brad. Wes told her that he had three girlfriends in his life, and she wonders if his lifestyle would affect her relationship with him. Despite her concerns, she gave him the rose. He also gets to live at the mansion with Jill (on separate beds).

The next date was a solo date with Jake. The couple went shopping for Western clothes. Then, they went to the House of Blues where they have the club to themselves. After some dancing, they talked about Jake's love of flying and taking her to different places. During the conversation, he surprised her when he kissed her. After dinner, they danced the night away with Martina McBride performing. In the end, Jill gave him the rose.

The final group date have Jesse, Mark, David, Mike, Simon, Kiptyn, and Juan to Venice Beach to play some basketball. That means that Tanner F., Julien, Robert, and Reed didn't had a date with her. Simon showed that he's terrible at basketball. Then, Jill had the guys compete against the Harlem Globetrotters on the courts. After the game, they chose David as their choice. Then, to show that he's spontaneous, Mike jumped into the ocean wearing his Speedos. They traveled to the hotel to have dinner where Jill had some one-on-one time with Juan, which annoyed David. Jill also spend some time with Kiptyn. In the end, she gave the rose to Mike for his spontaneous actions at the beach.

Back at the mansion, Tanner P. once again checked on her feet to see if their alright. While talking to Jesse, he told her that he gave up a chance to work in Italy to be on the show. Robby, who didn't went on a date with her, made his patented drink and tried to talk to her. But, he was interrupted by Wes, who already got a rose. This annoyed David because he believed that Wes is a fake and wants to advance his career.

Chris Harrison surprised everyone when he introduced the ballot box where the men gets to vote out one man out of the house, with the exception of the ones who got a rose. Prior to the announcement of the vote, Brian tried to make himself known by stripping down naked and jump into the pool. As for the vote, the men voted Juan out, but Jillian can save him by giving him the rose. Not surprisingly, she gave him the rose.

It was a good episode of The Bachelorette.

There will be three dates: two one-on-one dates and one group date. If the person in the solo date doesn't get a rose, he will go home.

The first solo date was with Ed. Jillian took him on a helicopter ride of L.A. Then, after landing on top of the building, they went stream-lining down as soon as Ed stop being nervous about it. Later, they landed on the pool and kiss. The couple had dinner on top of the building where they talked. Ed did get the rose.

The group date consists of Reed, Wes, Mike, Tanner F., Mark, Brad, Kiptyn, Tanner P., Micheal, Robby, and Juan. They went to a Hollywood western movie set where they will don cowboy costumes and act in a film. Jillian gets to kiss every man except for Micheal and Mike because they played gay cowboys. After shooting, they had some drinks at a penthouse bar. Wes told Jillian that he's jealous when he saw her kissing other men. While having conversation with Reed, Jillian was interrupted by Juan. She later told Robby that his kiss was the best and gave him the rose because he made her fell comfortable during shooting. After drinks, the men get to see the film that was shot.

The final solo date was with Sasha. Jillian took him to an auto museum where he took pictures of her on top of one of the cars. Then, the couple went cruising in a Ferrari. During dinner, he talked about a truck accident he had while in college and the long recovery. Since the accident, he told her that he became selective on who he would spend the rest of his life with and won't settle on anyone. Feeling that she won't meet his standards, she didn't give him a rose and sent him on a bus ride home.

Back at the mansion, Wes serenaded Jillian with his guitar and song outside.

Tanner P. wants Jillian to know another side to him, but he continued with his obsession with her feet.

Then, she let him in and talked. David was upset with the lack of alone time with Jillian but got his chance when she asked him to be with her. He told her that he's jealous with the time that most of the guys had with her. But, Juan interrupted the conversation. Of course, David have zero respect for Juan and upset that none of the other men didn't speak out against Juan because he felt that he wasn't sincere about his intentions on the show. Throughout the evening, he was on edge.and let his feelings known with the men. Talk about intense.

It was an intense episode of The Bachelorette.

The men are heading to Jillian's hometown of Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada. There will be three dates: one group date, one one-on-one date, and a two-on-one date. In the two-on-one date, Jillian will give out one rose to one man to stay while the other goes home.

In the one-on-one date, Jillian took Kiptyn out to a kayaking trip to the market and have dinner over at her place. During dinner, they talked about themselves and what they wanted. In the end, she gave him the rose.

For the group date, Jillian took Wes, David, Micheal, Jake, Juan, Tanner P., Jesse, Robby, Reid, and Ed to play Canada's national pastime: curling. The men are divided into two teams: Red and Blue, and the winning team will go out with Jillian while the losing team will go back to the hotel. In the end, the red team of Jesse, Dave, Robby, Jake, and Juan won and going to have dinner with Jill on a boat. During some one-on-one time, Jake was worried that she might think of him as being "too perfect." Then, Dave really ruined the date when he started to act like a pushy man when he tried to kiss her, but Jill turned away. He thought she was testing him. In the end, Jillian gave Jesse the rose.

On the two-on-one date, Jillian took Mike and Mark on a helicopter ride to a cabin on Grouse Mountains for dinner. Mike was not afraid to showed his feelings to Jill when he held her hands and telling her what he feels while Mark was low-key and kept to himself. In the end, Jill gave the rose to Mark and sent Mike down the gondola. I was surprised that she let Mike go.

The drama began back at the house when some of the men were upset that Wes is spending time with Jill after they thought he said that he have a girlfriend back home. Tanner P. took the charge by telling her that some of the men have girlfriends back home. This led Jill to question the some of the men's true intentions to appear on the show.

In a dramatic rose ceremony, she asked the men who have girlfriends back home. Some of the men asked the same question and exchanged some words at each other. Jill left the ceremony to gather some thoughts. Then, she finally gave the roses to 10 men:
Jesse
Mark
Kiptyn
Reid
Robby
Ed
Micheal
Wes
Jake
Tanner P.

CATCH YOU MONDAY!!!!!

It was a good episode of The Bachelorette.

Still reeling from the news that some of the men may still have girlfriends back home, Jillian is questioning her decision-making. However, the show must go on in Whistler, British Columbia.

There will be three dates: two one-on-one dates and a group date.

The first date was with Micheal. The two went zip-lining down the mountains. After the zip-lining, they have dinner while learning how to open a champagne bottle with a saber. Wondering which one still have a girlfriend, Jill asked some tough questions like why did he signed up to the show. Micheal talked about his break-up with his girlfriend eight months ago. After the talk, she decided to give him the rose.

The group date consists of Wes, Robby, Ed, Reid, Mark, Kiptyn, Tanner P., and Jake. They went snowmobiling, and Jill picked Robby to ride with her. After the ride, Robby apologized to her for his behavior at the Rose ceremony. Then, Tanner P. came and talked to her about keeping her eyes open while not giving out the names of the men who still have girlfriends. Later, Wes talked about why some of the men hated him, mainly because he have a CD out soon. The men and Jill had dinner where she talked to some of the men. She asked Reid who have girlfriends, and he jokingly said a lot of men including himself have a woman back home. When she talked to Ed, he told her that he had a conference call with his boss and said that he may have to leave to save his job. In the end, Ed got the rose. Jill said that she's not pressuring him to stay.

The final date was with Jesse. The couple went on a ski plane and land on a glacier. They had fun with the snow and wrote J+J on top of it. They had dinner where Jesse talked about breaking up with his ex and how he haven't dated a woman since. He also said that Jill's voice is soothing. In the end, she gave him the rose.

Ed called Jill to his room to break it to her that he decided to return him to save his job. He gave back the rose to her, and she was upset about it.

Jill gave out eight roses at the Rose ceremony:
Micheal
Jesse
Reid
Kiptyn
Robby
Jake
Tanner P.
Wes

Mark was the only man not to get the rose, and he learned about not guarding himself since he was cheated on four times.

It was a good episode of The Bachelorette.

The men will take a train ride with Jillian through the Rocky Mountains in Western Canada. There will be three dates: one group date and two one-on-one dates. During the ride, Jill admits that she still misses Ed.

The first one-on-one date was with Robby. The couple have dinner in the caboose. Robby lightened the mood by showing his bartender skills. They talked about his family and future. He talked about how his family felt that he's the one who will be married first. But, feeling that he's not ready for marriage soon, Jill didn't give Robby a rose and dropped him off the train. After dumping Robby, Wes came to comfort her.

The group date consists of Tanner, Wes, Jake, Kiptyn, Jesse, and Michael. They went to Emerald Lake to go snow-shoeing the slopes. Tanner wanted to get close to Jillian's shoes to be close to her feet. After snow-shoeing, the group had dinner at a cabin. Jake spend some quality time with Jill before he was interrupted. To show that he's not that shy, Tanner dropped his pants and showed his underwear. Then, during some one-on-one time with her, he rubbed her feet. Then, he told the guys that he's the one who told Jill that someone have a girlfriend back home. Of course, Wes wasn't too happy about. He said that he already six shows in and got the free press for his music while trying to win her heart. Meanwhile, Michael and Jill were roasting marshmallows and talked about his future. In the end, she gave the rose to Kiptyn.

Reid was so nervous about his solo date that, while he was alone in the train, asked train staff if he should have glasses for the date. The couple headed to Lake Louise for snowboarding. Of course, he fell down several times. During the dinner at the cabin, they had fondue, in which Reid wasn't too fond of them. Then, he acted like a neurotic when talking about his faults. But, Jill liked that. In fact, she gave him the rose.

The train ride ended at Banff when Chris Harrison told the men that the rose ceremony is next. Jill told Chris that she still uncertain about some men.

At the Rose Ceremony, she asked Michael to talk to her because she still have some questions. She wonders if he's mature to be in a serious relationship. He said that he's ready.

Five men who got roses to take Jill for the hometown dates are:
Kiptyn
Reid
Jesse
Wes
Michael

I can't believe that Tanner was let go. She let him rubbed her feet. Also, she still picked Wes.

CATCH YOU MONDAY!!!!

It was a good episode of The Bachelorette.

It was the Hometown Dates as Jillian visited the five remaining bachelors' hometowns.

She visited Reid's hometown of Philadelphia. She was introduced to his family who are realtors. They talked about how he wanted to be married now that he's 30 and why he was guarded to his feelings. Than, Reid's grandmother and sister-in-law dropped by to celebrate his 30th birthday.

Next, she visited Michael's hometown of New York to visit his family. He and his look-alike brother tried to play a classic game of switch-a-roo to fool Jill. Michael tried to pretend to be his brother, but she wasn't fooled. At the dinner table, the family asked her the question for the table about the three things she's proud of. Then. she talked about her concern about his age and his willingness to get married. Finally, his sister, who was out of the country, made a surprise visit to the family.

The next trip was to San Diego to visit Kiptyn and his family. The family poked fun at her infamous hot tub scene with Jason when they wrapped Do Not Enter banners around the pool. They also had Jill to take a test to see which lasagna and wine are better. Then, she had a talk with his mother, who grilled her with questions with her no-nonsense way. Jill wants her to be honest and blunt. Then, she and Kiptyn went to the pool.

Then, she went to Carmel, California to visit Jesse and his family at their vineyards. She talked to his brother, who looked like Vince Neil of Motley Crue, asked her about her relationship with him. After the talk, the family jammed as they played as the house band.

The final stop was Austin, Texas to visit Wes and his family. Before seeing his family, he introduced her to his band and performed songs for Jill. Then, unknown to Jill, Jake came to Austin to see Jill. He called Tanner to see if he's doing the right thing. Then, he visited her to tell her that Wes have a girlfriend. She couldn't believed it. She confront Wes about it, and he said that they broke up and still friends. She called Jake to come over, and the two men exchanged words about who said what. After Jake left, the two decide to visit his family. To explain why they're late, they explained what Jake told Jill. The family said that the other men are jealous of him and that he's not the type of person to have multiple girlfriends.

Back at Los Angeles, Jill got a surprise visit by Ed. He said that he made a mistake of leaving the show and wants to come back. Of course, she had mixed emotions because she still have feelings for him but doesn't think it's fair for the other men because she didn't get to met his family. However, she did invited him to the Rose Ceremony. Of course, the men were shocked to see Ed back.

The four men getting the rose are:
Reid
Kiptyn
Ed
Wes

I can't believe that Jill kept Wes and let go Jesse. What does it take to convince her to dump Wes?

CATCH YOU MONDAY!!!!!

It was a good episode of The Bachelorette as Jillian and the remaining four guys heading to Spain.

The first date was with Kiptyn in Madrid as Jill is worried if he's too perfect for her and wants him to open up more. The couple walked in the park and had a picnic dinner where they talked. Kiptyn said that he wouldn't want to rush into a marriage proposal, and Jill looked unhappy when she heard that. Then, they went to a dance studio and took Flamenco dancing lessons. After the lessons, they rode on a moped to a restaurant where they ate escargot. When the Fantasy Suite card arrived, Jillian decided to declined the invite to have Kiptyn spend an overnight date with her because she's not sure if they're on the same direction.

The next date was with Reid in Sevilla. The two went to different stores where they spoke poor Spanish. Reid is too afraid to say love to Jill and wants someone to light a fire to his butt. They have a conversation about his ability to be a vocal front in the relationship. Like she did with Kiptyn, she declined to have him join her to the Fantasy Suite.

Next date was with Ed in Sevilla. Since he left her two weeks ago, Jill was concerned if he would break her heart again and asked him many questions while riding on a horse carriage. Ed asked her how would she like it if she moved to Chicago and go to Cubs games. When the Fantasy Suite card arrived, she originally declined it because she wasn't sure she was rational with her feelings for Ed but changed her mind to get to know him better.

The final date was with Ed in Barcelona. While she still have feelings for the country bad boy, she have some concerns about him and his true intentions. After a bicycle ride, they had a picnic where he said that they're a perfect match. But, Jill noticed that he was distant from her. When she grilled him allegations that he have a girlfriend and focusing on his career, he said that he and Laurel are good friends and that, even though his manager thought appearing on the show would be a boost in his career, if he was here for his music career that he would already been gone after performing two songs and introducing the band. But, Jill wasn't too convinced. Of course, she declined to have him join her in the Fantasy Suite.

It's time for the Rose Ceremony, and Jill was sure on whom she would pick to stay. They are:

Ed
Reid
Kiptyn

Finally, Wes was sent packing. During the limo ride back, Wes dissed on the remaining three bachelors.

GOODBYE WES!!!!

CATCH YOU MONDAY!!!!

[newyorkjetsfan]

It was a good episode of The Bachelorette.

Jillian and the three remaining men are in Maui, Hawaii.

The first date was with Kiptyn. The couple went through a rope course to see if Jill can trust him when she needed him. She was nervous when she climbed on the totem pole but get through it. Then, during dinner, she asked him if there's any flaws. He said that he's impatient. Then, the Fantasy Suite card arrived and, this time, they both agreed and went to the suite.

The next date was with Reid, and Jillian wants him to express his feelings more. They went on a helicopter ride over the islands with a pilot who also an ordained minister. During dinner on the beach, Reid still having problems expressing how he's feeling for Jill, and she still grilling him to open himself out. Again, the two went to Fantasy Suite.

The final date was with Ed, and they went sailing. Jill still fretting that she haven't met his parents. During the sail, he told her that his parents called him Richie. Also, he told her that his parents had flown here to meet her. Jill was nervous when she met them, and his father wondered what they're doing here and had a tough time with Ed's decision to come back to the show. But, he appreciated his son's decision. The two went to the Fantasy Suite and get cozy with each other. Things were about to get intimate when Ed had "problems" getting it on. Perhaps he was experiencing too much pressure or nervous about making love in front of the cameras. How embarrassing.

Before she gets to chose which two guys get the rose in the Rose Ceremony, Jill took Ed aside to ask him about the "issue" from the other night. He assured her that he's passionate cared for her and that their relationship is strong. After the meeting, Jill made her decision as she chose Kiptyn and Ed. Reid was sent home because Jill felt that they are in two different directions regarding their relationship.

Jill told the two men that they are heading to the island of Hawaii.

Next week, it's the Men Tell All. That means fireworks when Wes gets to talk.

CATCH YOU NEXT WEEK!!!!!

[Mimiheart]

How much TV do you watch? :/

[newyorkjetsfan]

It was a special episode of The Bachelorette as The Men Tell All.

Chris Harrison interviewed Jillian earlier about the show so far and her thoughts about some of the men. She doesn't mind Tanner P.'s foot fetish and actually had her feet confidence up. She said that she doesn't liked how her second toe are bigger than her first toe. On the issue of allowing Ed to return, she said that she had to follow her heart. She was also pleased that Reid wasn't so perfect on the rope course. Jillian said that letting Reid go was the toughest choice she even made

The show also featured some clips that didn't make it on the air. Jill got some relationship advice from Special K from the Harlem Globetrotters, and he liked David. There were also clips of Ed being a happy drunk, a snowball fight among Jill, Mark, and Mike, and the train in Vancouver going back and fourth after missing the station to drop off Robby as well as Reid bad hulu dancing. There was also a clip of Jill visiting Kiptyn's charity during his hometown date.

Then, Jason and Molly dropped by to update of their relationship since last season. They started things slow, but they had grown closing together. They said that the controversy after the season made them grow close together. Molly had a better relationship with Ty and hopes to get marry soon. However, they still live in two different cities as Jason is still in Seattle and Molly in Milwaukee. Jason said that he glad that he made his decision.

Finally, the men showed up. Reid didn't showed up due to a prior commitment and, much to the dismay to some, Wes didn't showed up. Tanner F. talked about the attention he had gotten thanks to Tanner P. Michael said that he underestimated the fun he had with the guys and his love for Jillian.

Then, some of the men were discussing "perfect" Jake and how he should loosen up. Later, they talked about the feud between David and Juan. David accused Juan of being fake in front of the camera and violating the "man code" of going out with another man's girl. Maybe you should have thought of that before going on The Bachelorette. Then, David is upset at Tanner P. because he violated the code by ratting Wes behind his back. Then, Chris grilled Dave about his encounter with Jill that made her uncomfortable when he complimented of her ass. He defended himself by saying that he was just admiring Jill on her tush.

Jake talked to Chris and said that he have no regrets on ratting on Wes, but some of the men said that he did the wrong thing because they said that she can make up her own mind. When asked by an audience member if he would be the next Bachelor, he's uncertain.

On the subject of Wes, Tanner F. claimed that Wes told him that he wrote songs about a girl back home. David said that, while he was here to promote his CD, that he had grown feeling for Jill. The audience begged the differ. One member said that if it walked like a snake and talk like a snake that he's not a guy a woman would what to go out with. Then, there was a musical tribute for him, and it was funny.

Jillian dropped on the show and faced the men. She said that she had a tough time saying goodbye to Michael and Mark.

Next week, Jill will make her pick, unless the shocking confession changes things.

CATCH YOU MONDAY!!!!!

It was the finale of The Bachelorette.

At the Big Island in Hawaii, Jillian was pondering choosing between two men: Kiptyn and Ed. She had them meet her family of her parents, her cousin, and her lovable grandmother.

Ed was the first man to meet her family. Like she did with Jason, her mother asked him plenty questions (although not as much) including how many children the couple plan to have and what qualities you want in the relationship. He talked about how he's married to his work, why he left the show and why he came back. Then, Ed asked her father about asking her to marry him, and he approved. Jill's family and Ed ended the meeting with a hula dance.

Kiptyn's the next guy to meet her family. Like ED, he was asked many questions by Jill's mother. He talked about his spending time at the beach after work. Her father asked him if he's in love with Jill, and he said yes.

After meeting the two men, her father seemed to prefer Ed while the rest liked Kiptyn.

It was Ed's final date with Jillian as the two went helicopter ride over an erupting volcano. Then, they had dinner on the beach and went swimming where they kissed. Then, they went to the hotel and, unlike the last time, they apparently got passionate.

On Kiptyn's final date, they went on a speedboat and paddling on a surfboard. Then, he told her that he's falling in love with her. After dinner, they went back to the hotel room.

After the two men got their rings, both of them went to propose to Jill. Kiptyn was first, but Jill turned him down.

Then, in a twist, Reid was back after Jill let him go and asked her to take him back. He said that he was an idiot, and he loved her. Jill was confused and have to take time to think things through. After a talk with Chris Harrison, she went back and told Reid that she already made up her mind and said no to him. Even though he was rejected, he said that he have no regrets.

Finally, it's the moment we all are waiting for, Ed told Jill how he feels about her and proposed to her. Of course, she said yes. She jumped on his back, and the couple were whisked away to the sunset.

The After the Final Rose special airs Tuesday, and we'll see if she is still with Ed. I think that they are still together.

I enjoyed watching this season.

[newyorkjetsfan]

Tuesday was the After the Final Rose special.

Former contestant Melissa said that Jason made the right decision. Of course he did, she's engaged.

Kiptyn also appeared on the show and talked to Jill.. There were no hard words. I was amused when a younger woman came from the audience and basically asked him on a date. he said that he'll think about it.

Reid talked about his decision to come back to talk to Jill and have no regrets about it.

Then, the happy couple of Ed and Jillian appeared together. She plans to go to Chicago soon, and they said that they plan to get married within 12 months. I bet that they will break up.

CATCH YOU NEXT SEASON
