Week 2 on the Bachelorette
SPOILER ALERT!! So if you haven't caught up with the show, stop reading and come back after you watch it. I have a short recap from the first episode HERE. Whew. After a long weekend with what was a summer-vacation-sneak-preview you bet I was ready to sit on the couch with a glass of wine and watch trashy t.v. Hubby has his man-glass of wine and we were all set.So the guys are told at the beginning of the show that they were headed to the "guest house" which consists of 12 to a room, 6 bunk beds. Fun. Perfect i'm sure for Twilley the frat-named dork. But SURPRISE, 3 get to move into the mansion with DeAnna this week and they were last week's first impression rose-getters: Jeremy, Jesse, and Richard.
So the date box comes and the group date for "magic night" are Jason, Twilley, Sean, Ryan, Paul, Fred, and Richard. A magician places D and Jason in a box, and POOF, they disappear for some one-on-one. Now, he's the guy with the son. I keep yelling at the TV, "tell her, tell her, tell her!" since he's yet to mention the son to anyone on the show. Nope. Doesn't happen. But, D likes him and decides to give him a rose on that date. 11 more to go.
Later, Graham the hottie, gets chosen for the one on-one-date to the beach. ROMANTIC! Talk, talk, talk, feelings, talk, talk, marriage, MARRIAGE, kiss KISS, KISS. ROSE!
Don't get me wrong, I like DeAnna, but she is SO "marriage, marriage, family" it seems so rushed, these guys seem like they're being forced to mention it every chance they get or she'll axe them. How can you seriously talk marriage after a few minutes of conversation and one date?
Second group date to Dodger Stadium...Jesse, Eric, Robert, Ron, Jeremy, Brian, and Chris. Chris is the MOMO that makes himself look like the worst American on the planet. Who fouls up the National Anthem in Dodger Stadium in front of Tommy Lasorda? He was gone before they left the field, sorry buddy. Jeremy wins one one one time and shares that both of his parents have passed away (as D's mom died of cancer), so they share a bond, and ulitmately a kiss, and a rose.
Here's a run-down of a few of the others...
Eric-the Greek--"blah blah blah, I'm Greek, I'm Greek" he has nothing else to offer, buh-bye
Robert-the chef--WOW that's a pink shirt with the collar up, um okay, live in SF...i'm just sayin'
Sean-mullet boy--impatient with the player piano
Ryan--pulled the VIRGIN card to the guys, didn't have any contact with D this episode
Paul--has the same 5 year plan as D, she likes him
Fred--REALLY?? He's STILL here, seems like he was in the bathroom or something the whole show
Twilley--more like gives me the (T)WILLIES, ugh this guy makes my teeth ache. Did he call her DeAndrea during that long-ass story he told? Even hubby thinks he's a "creepy stalker."
Ron--he rubbed me the wrong way tonight, he was jealous of Jeremy and slightly evil, didn't like this side of him
Jesse--hmm...he's growing on me, and not like a fungus, he's sweet!
Roses tonight went to: Robert, Sean, Paul, Fred (????), Twilley (????), Jason, Jesse, Jeremy, Richard, Ron, Brian, and Graham.
I have to say Jason may have lost his window of opportunity with D, not confessing about his son and all. Graham and Jeremy are my front-runners now. Thoughts??

I think we think the exact same way about the show. I so think the chef might live in SF. I was telling my husband that the whole show :) I live in Tulsa and am sad to say that is where Twilley is from. YUCK! He gives Tulsa a bad name. I wish Jason would have told her about his son. I am still cheering him on and I lust after Graham. Can we say hottie! Can't wait for next week!

I don't watch the show and your recap is just as good (and saves me time!) I love your hubby's "man glass". I'll have to see if that will make my husband drink wine............doubt it!

Fred is H, O, T, HOT!!! Stop bagging on him, he's going to be Mr. DeAnna by the end of the show.

All those wine bottles must be going to your head. lol. I AM posting your entry to my blog. I just need you to email me the post so that I can add it to my blog. I just put the links on so everyone would now who'd be blogging this week, and for a little link love.

Don't you think that they should give the guys something besides roses? Like a remote control or a beer or something?
I love this show :)

I LOVE IT!!! Great recap Jen and yes, what you said.
I want Jesse to be he next Bachelor

I think you're right about Jeremy and Graham but don't rule Jason out just yet.
I really don't care for Jeremy myself, but what do I know?
I am so rooting for Jason though. Looks like he spills the beans next week. Hope she takes it well. All her talk about marriage and all, maybe that will seal the deal for Jason? A ready-made family man. He's obviously into the family thing...

I love the man glass!

GAK!!! I didn't have a chance to watch yet. I taped it. I'll pipe in as soon as I get a chance!!! :)

I'm sad to say I have stooped to a new low. I have recruited my 15 year old son into watching with me. LOL Fortunately, he is such a comic and is enjoying giving his teen point of view. We agree with you so far! Looking forward to your recap next week!

I TOTALLY AGREE! Everything. You're thinking the exact same things I was thinking! I was super surprised by Fred too, where in the world was he? I thought he'd go for sure! How in the world do you get hubby to watch?

Ok, I really need to start watching this show! I always like the Bachelorette waaayyy more than the Bachelor, because HELLO--it's 25 hot guys instead of girls. Who could ask for anything more??!!
Also, you are my new best friend because you take notes during the show. I thought I was the only one. Love it!!!
