Week 3 of Colton’s Bachelor adventure wasn’t really all the exciting. It was a classic Bachelor formula show. Group date with a little drama but nothing really intriguing, 1x1 date in a non-realistic setting with a deep revelation at dinner that night, another group date with a “twist”, Chris Harrison scaring the girls only to get them excited, and then the Rose Ceremony saving the most dramatic rose until the end except you already knew who was getting it if you paid atten

In Week 2 of Colton’s season the producers get back to The Bachelor basics. No more stupid “LIVE” audiences and just what we want. 23 women competing for the heart of one man who has no clue what he’s doing in life. This. Is. Why. We. Watch. Before I get to this week’s episode a couple of general things on Colton: Virgin Fatigue with this guy is real. It’s a unique hook and storyline but WE ALL KNOW HE’S A VIRGIN. I’m sure the producers are trying to find the right m

So our good friend Colton was named The Bachelor this week. I’m not completely surprised since the other choices were pretty lame. Blake couldn’t do it without his mom being on set which the producers wouldn’t agree to and Jason might be a little too smooth and mellow to truly be entertaining. That seemingly left Colton and Jordan. With Jordan looking fully committed to deal with Jenna’s cocaine fueled excitement and anxiety that pretty much left Colton once he cut the co

NOTE – This week is rather long as the Colton disclosure is a lot to discuss. The rest of the episode was pretty boring so feel free to jump to the Colton section about halfway down if you’re short on time. You'll see it marked in bold where it starts. Week 7 of The Damn Thing took some turns I wasn’t ready for. Normally I write these things in chronological order of the show but I’m diverting this week. There wasn’t a lot of drama in this episode which was always my bigg

We start off Week 6 with Becca and Chris Harrison having a chat. Harrison is completely half assing it going through the motions. Becca is all excited talking about what a great group of guys she has and excited for the future including marriage. She’s even been reading some magazines on it and tearing pages. She’s clearly serious about this whole process. Harrison just nods and gives generic responses because he’s so numb to her “excitement.” He knows it’s likely not g

I wasn’t sure if I was going to blog about Becca’s season as I was worried it might be pretty boring. I like Becca a lot as I think she’s smart, beautiful, and has her shit together. Basically, she’s not crazy which drives the entertainment of this show. Let’s think about her reaction to two things in Arie’s season – 1) Ross and 2) The Break-Up. Yes, that’s two Jennifer Anniston references so feel free to high five me next time you see me. As for Becca last season, she’s

I’m not even sure where to begin on the “Fantasy Suite” episode. Like Hometowns these usually have some pretty good drama because there’s sexual tension. It’s either pent up and ready to go or there’s major apprehension. In typical Arie fashion it was neither and just kind of ho hum. I really do like Arie and think he’s a genuinely good guy but we watch this show for fireworks. Ever since Krystal got dismissed it’s tailed off dramatically. Thank goodness for the Women T

This was probably the biggest snoozer of Arie’s season so far. Hometowns usually offer some good drama or intrigue but there was literally nothing in this episode. I think that’s a testament to Arie being a good genuine guy and he picked four REALLY solid girls. Sure, Arie’s a moronic goof at times and the girls aren’t perfect but all things considered the final four have proven to be people devoid of drama and true idiocy like we’ve seen in the past. Arie and the girls d

Episode 7 starts off in Tuscany with Arie and Becca K going on a 1x1. Between Paris and Tuscany Arie found time to fix his cute little convertible. They cruise through some streets where there is ZERO traffic at all including civilians. They find the perfect parking spot because there’s ZERO traffic. They then roam the streets/alleys arm in arm with NOBODY around. I mean not a damn soul. They then happen on a solo bread seller. And by solo I mean NO OTHER SELLER is aro

This episode reminded me of playing an average game of golf with some REALLY good holes. For most of the show it was ordinary but it was still The Bachelor and enjoyable. It just had moments where it seemed like things were going through the motions but there were some moments that completely dominated. The first date was with Lauren B. We haven’t seen a ton of Lauren B so far but what we’ve seen Arie has a real interest. The reason for that is she’s smoking hot. While t
