What Do I Know??

Bachelorette premiere last night lived up to my hype in my opinion! It may have helped that we threw a premiere party/birthday party for my roommate Farrell and watching with other fans always makes the show more enjoyable in my opinion. I'll post pics of the event soon; it was complete with a deliberation room, hot dogs, and of course a rose ceremony.

I was thoroughly disappointed in the top three I picked in my previous post. While I'm glad I was right that they all at least made it to round two, it was bittersweet because they greatly failed to meet my personal expectations for them. I'm going to rip off Saturday Night Live here and do a little segment occasionally shown on Weekend Update called Really?!? (note I think SNL actually ripped me off because this has been one of my signature words for years, I'm sure one of the writers heard about it and was like yeah - we should use that...you're welcome.)

Really Wes? In my book "musician" and "sub-par country singer" are not the same thing. Please list your occupation accurately in future reality TV dating shows. And really, you're choosing to wear a gold chain??? And to be a complete cliche, you've written her an incomplete song? Really?? Sigh...I had such high hopes.

Really Mathue? You're wearing your way over-autographed hat? Are really you sure you want to wear autographed merchandise? I mean I think it's acceptable if you are 10 years old and at Disney World getting Mickey Mouse's autograph on your plastic visor, but beyond that I really can't think of an acceptable reason to wear autographed clothing and/or accessories.

Really Mike? Did you really use the entire bottle of gel hair product to get that slicked back hairdo? And how long did it take you to think of that awesome "you really are a great catch" pickup line complete with tossing Jill the ball? And let's be honest, how many times have you used that awesome pickup line? Really?

Really Tanner P.? You really want to announce on national television to millions of viewers that you are obsessed with feet? At what point did you convince yourself it was normal to be obsessed with feet? And is it really a dealbreaker for you if a girl has low arches and doesn't paint her toenails? I mean would you have really walked off the set if you saw low arches when Jillian's feet were revealed? Really?

Really Greg? Are you really sure that you actually want people to refer to you as "Billbro"? And is it a requirement to humbly consider yourself a perfect 10 in order to be a fitness model? And did you really think it was a good idea to challenge a break dance instructor to a dance off?

Really Brian? Did you really just call Jillian "Hot Tub Harris"? Do you realize you are nicknaming her after an extremely steamy moment with her "ex-boyfriend"? Do you really think that is what women want to be reminded of and nicknamed after? And a special Really to Jillian on this one, you really gave this crazy kid a rose?? For your sake I hope this was one the producers made you pick.

I'm sure there are more "really" moments that I missed. I'm also sure there will be plenty more to come this season. (!) After last night my new favorite for the moment is Ed:
I don't think this picture does him justice because he seemed cuter on TV last night. He also seemed the most normal to me out of the group which I realize isn't saying much considering the group. If you have time I'll again make plugs for some hilarious recaps on Entertainment Weekly here and here for Chris Harrison's recap also on EW. And of course I'm eagerly anticipating the recap from Lincee at www.ihategreenbeans.com that should be up sometime today. See you at the next rose ceremony, which promises to be the most dramatic ever (again).
