Amazing Race Group Date
Last night's episode started off with an Amazing Race type group date that had the guys paired off in mini coopers racing around LA looking for Jillian. Tanner P (foot guy) and Michael (break dancer) were the most entertaining to watch during the race due to their genuine giddiness, but unfortunately the Wes/Brad duo won and Jillian chose to spend one-on-one time with Wes. Can I say again how disappointed I am in Wes? I don't know yet whether he is in this thing to gain exposure and hopefully advance his country music "career" as some of the guys started claiming last night, but I do know something isn't right. Exhibit A: I think he's laying on his accent thick. I think it's part of his "I'm a hot country singer" gig because in my experience people in Austin don't typically have such thick accents. Exhibit B: He's quite a competitive guy (as evidenced by his behavior during the mini cooper race) so he could just be in it to win it since he doesn't like to lose even if he doesn't want to the prize. Exhibit C: As many of the guys mentioned he is an aspiring country singer and it seems he would be open to any and all publicity considering his only claim to fame is a hit song in Chihuahua, Mexico. Well, that and when he was "asked to play for President George W. Bush" according to his website (yes I looked it up). Due to the mounting evidence against Wes, all I can see now whenever he's on the screen is the following:
Red flags all over the place!!One-on-One Date with Martina McBride as the Third Wheel
Jake the pilot from Dallas got the one-on-one date which overall was pretty boring and normal UNTIL Jake decided to be spontaneous. Really spontaneous. It all went down a little something like this: Jake asks Jill what her thoughts on marriage were. Jill begins to answer and 3.5 seconds later Jake cuts her off and lunges at her for the kiss. My friends and I watching together screamed in shock and then rewound 3 times to relive the awkwardness! Jillian loved it, Jake succeeded in his spontaneity effort because Jill thought it was just that, and therefore completely forgave the fact that he didn't actually care about her answer. I think there's something off with Jake too, I'm not sure what it is yet so there aren't near as many red flags going off as there are for Wes but I don't know...I don't totally believe this guy yet for some reason. It could be because he wears pleated khakis.
Harlem Globetrotters Group Date
Jillian takes the guys on the second group date to Venice Beach to play basketball and then brings her "friends" the Harlem Globetrotters to the court to basically humiliate and school all these white boys. This is good TV people! The highlight for me during this date was that we started to see the real David. And the real David is an angry man. The real David also takes this apparent "man code" thing very literally and seriously and believes if other men don't then they should be "tied to a tree and beaten" (yes that's a quote and I'm sure Lincee would insert a Jim Halpert face here). Angry David's rage continued throughout the group date and the cocktail party before the rose ceremony. Does this rage remind anyone else of a character from The Office?
Yes, our beloved Andy Bernard who had to take anger management classes after punching a hole in the wall in the office! I sure hope for Juan's sake that Angry David chooses a wall to take his anger out on instead of Juan's face.Cocktail Party/Rose Ceremony
Again this is a family blog so I'm not really even going to give much mention to Brian's decision to completely strip down to nothing and then jump in the pool and then describe what his manhood looked like. Besides to remind you once again that this is good TV people. I would love to know what Brian was thinking and when those thoughts started to sound like good ideas in his mind. Why in the world would he ever think that would make a positive impression on Jillian? I guess some questions are best left unanswered...and with that I will leave commentary on "the incident" up to the Pop Watch and Lincee recaps, which I'm sure won't disappoint.
Simon the British guy, Julien the guy who didn't get any dates this week, Mathue the weirdly spelled name, and Brian the light switch all got sent home. I can't say I was too disappointed to see any of them go. Except maybe Simon, I do love those British accents (and his sounds real)! Most shocking out of the guys that did get roses: Tanner P (the foot guy) and Mark who I'm not sure has been on the camera at all this season since no one in the room ever remembered seeing him. Here he is, seriously does anyone remember him?
I'm giving a shout out to my friend Ashley in case her theory is correct, she thinks he may be a spy for Jillian. I'm doubtful she's right but also hoping I'm wrong because I think that would be a great twist! And even though Ed didn't get much screen time he's still my fav. Until next week, see you at the next rose ceremony, which promises to be the most dramatic ever (again).
