From a Yahoo! site. This kind of says it all for me! Quoted:

I think we all need to remember that this is a reality show -- I.e., everything is practically scripted. I'm more willing to believe that all this brouhaha is a production company creation than a play-by-play of what supposedly happened in the Fantasy Suite. People are willing to say they did a lot of things if you pay them enough money. I think the fact that this topic is still going strong is all part of the Bachelor franchise plan. Mission accomplished.

This is absolutely true. I have a hard time understanding anyone who thinks anything on that show is "real".

Andi and Josh are both from Atlanta. They were probably already in a serious relationship when they contacted the producers to participate. Now The Bachelorette will have an engagement, a big over the top televised wedding and lots of press once the babies start coming. ${#emotions_dlg.rolleyes}$

I really doubt that.

I personally believe they met on the show and happened to start to fall in love. I also believe we'll see the televised wedding!

I think the only two who knew each other before were Shayne Lamas and Matt Grant. That was definitely fixed from the beginning. She was Lorenzo Lamas' daughter, and he was the "British" bachelor. The only way she would have gone on the show was if she was guaranteed the win. They had met before and hit it off, so she was "cast." Of course, they proclaimed their undying love for each other, got engaged, and broke up two months later! He wasn't looking for love; he was looking for fame in Hollywood. Scripted for her to win from the start!

Didn't something really bad happen to her recently? An accident or a health issue. Does anyone remember seeing this?

I do believe that Josh is more 'her type'. Didn't someone say that her previous boyfriends were heavily into sports, etc. but those relationships didn't work out for her. Anyway, Nick didn't seem to be her type, whatever that means. Possibly 'too needy', or something that I can't pinpoint. (Maybe a tad boring, following Andi around, etc., etc.) So far, Josh seems to have an outgoing, easy-going personality. Well, time will tell. Rumors say that they will be married next Spring? Probably on TV.

'More or less', 'Right or wrong', 'In general', and 'Just thinking out loud ' (as usual).

I remember reading about this not long ago - I was thinking she miscarried, so I looked it up. She was 16 weeks along when she collapsed. After being rushed to the hospital, they discovered she was bleeding internally around her uterus and they had to do an emergency hysterectomy. They put her in a medically induced coma. And of course when she woke up she found out she lost the baby. So sad.

Yes, very sad indeed.

Elise is more cray cray then AshLee/Claire. They seem normal.

Lotus · ‎03-09-2010

Elise is totally delusional....or at least the editing is portraying her that way. Her confessionals bordered on stalking.

I am really liking Claire on this show.

Should we start a separate thread for the new show???

DH and I are watching too. Yes, Elise is delusional. Her "speech" when giving out the rose was beyond ridiculous. However, we were so disappointed in Sarah. She was one that was likeable and it seemed that she would have given her rose to Dylan. Although we both liked Robert, it surprised us that she chose him. Our opinion of her has changed.

As for Chris B? Looking forward to him leaving, although I'm sure he'll be around for too long. Just glad Ben was caught and left; he shouldn't have been there, but he got his time on TV.
