Due to Memorial Day weekend this Bachelorette viewing consisted of me and my snarky comments that I made to the television as I watched the show. I enjoyed my company though and I caught myself laughing a few times over my witty remarks.
The show was on Monday and now it is Wednesday, so I have had time to really gather my thoughts on everything that is happening to poor Emily and this delayed post really puts perspective on what was really important. Anyways now to the good stuff.
Emily's first date was with "creepy eye guy" . They walked up the side of a building to have dinner (definitely not as cool as walking up the bay bridge) and then they watched a concert with some country star. Emily was a little concerned because he was younger than her, but what really concerned me is the strange, fake vibe that I get from this guy. I can't explain it, but he just seems like he is trying too hard to impress her or maybe he is really a creep trying to play nice. I am not sure, but he is not one of my favorites. Of course I try not to jump to any conclusions because maybe he is a really nice guy and he is nervous about the cameras. Who knows, but this is just my gut reaction.
The second date was a group date. She took the men to the park where they were questioned by her friends then forced to play with kids and pretend they were having fun. The fitness guy made some comment about hoping that Emily didn't get fat which he said in front of her friends. (really??, What an idiot). The friends all liked a guy with blond hair. He seems like he is nice enough. She ended up listening to her friends and giving the rose to him. Emily sent home the lumber jack during the date because he missed his kid. She just wasn't that into him and maybe it really made her uncomfortable to see a grown man cry like a baby.
The last date was a one on one with Arie (the racecar driver) They went to Dollywood and then Dolly Parton put on a short concert for them. It was sweet and Emily was so excited to meet Dolly and I am still trying to figure out how Dolly can play her guitar with fake nails. I am sure Arie was thinking that he was lucky to be there too because he knows that anytime Emily thinks about meeting Dolly she will think about him too.
At the final rose ceremony, Emily had a strange conversation with Alessandro, who's occupation is Grain Merchant which really is code for migrant worker. He told her because she had a child marrying her would be a compromise for him. There was also some interesting facts about him that came out when the show was over like he was dating his cousin and his one night stands. Anyways he had to go immediately. When she got to handing out the roses she only had to eliminate one suitor. Sorry Stevie! I guess it is time to pack your bags You were just too jersey shore for this southern girl. Can't wait for next week.
Sean is beautiful!!! The one her friends were all over (that one friend was creepily into him). But I think the group date was a bit strange too- super staged.
ReplyDeleteI was thrilled that Stevie went home. He has this one smile that is super odd to me. I was bummed that the gorgeous biology teacher didn't make the cut last week.
It's been a good season so far, but I am really hoping to see a deeper side to Emily.
It's fun to read your posts, Debbie, because you notice things I don't see.
ReplyDeleteThere weren't any clips featuring the conversation between Emily and Alessandro after she said "your comments make me a little more comfortable, but also a LOT more uncomfortable" (the ones about the "compromise"). It then cut to them walking out of the house. My mom thinks it possible that Emily told him off.
I'm starting to understand where Emily is coming from ever so slightly better, I think.
