You Poor, Pathetic Girl
The headache I had last night prevented me from making it to the gym, to dinner, or even to my couch. I spent the majority of the evening in bed, watching TV. And until 24 premiers in January, there is limited entertainment on the telly. Ok, ok, I am totally making excuses for having watched The Bachelor: Rome last night.
Which was a pathetic, pathetic hour. Oh Lisa, you poor girl. How could you go on national TV and tell everyone that you have a plan to be married by 26 and with kids by 30? Don't you know that life is never that accurate? And to bring Lorenzo to your home, which was full of bridal magazines and a wedding dress? You flat out told Lorenzo that you cheated on an ex, and applied to the show without knowing who the bachelor was going to be! You looked so sad, so desperate.
And Lorenzo, you loser! You're 34 and choosing between a 23-year old virgin and a 24-year old. While some men might be applauding you for your selection, don't you know that these women are too young. They have their 20's to live, to discover, to gain confidence.
And ABC, please end this parade of desperate women fighting to be "chosen" by a man. Throwing themselves at them, begging for a rose. You have such success with Lost, Grey's, Desperate Housewives. Do you really need this lame-o reality show to generate revenue for you? At least bring back The Bachelorette.

I couldn't agree with you more, Debbie. Though I missed last night's episode and only caught a couple of them at all this season, it was enough. Girls weeping over a man they barely know, claiming they felt he was the one. Girls being catty, jealous, manipulative just to get a rose. Totally cheesy.
The bachelorette has more substance b/c the women are really hoping to meet their husband. I don't think these men are hoping to meet their wife. Just their next girlfriend. And what kind of Italian prince doesn't even speak Italian???? It's such hype. Totally ridiculous and portrays the worst qualities of women. So sad... pick me, pick me, pick me!
The other thing about this show that really bothers me is how easy it makes it seem to fall in love. EVERYBODY claims to feel love for the bachelor... how is that possible?

This show should be filed under "Comedy" - not "Reality TV".
