The Bachelor Recaps: CONFIRMED!

Monday, May 07, 2007

CONFIRMED!

I have just confirmed with our host Chris Harrison that the rumors are indeed true. There will NOT be a Women Tell All episode airing before or after the final rose ceremony, due to timing, scheduling and May sweeps.

I hate that we will miss out on our host’s comedic timing with zingy one-liners and gag reel contributions. What I would give to see Psycho Stephanie and her boobs squirm in the hot seat. Or for Chris to offer Nicole $20 to yell, "PUNKY POWER" to the top of her lungs. Are the twins still BFF? Does Amber feel guilty that her principal stepped down as a result of her participation in the show? Would Bevin have worn Spanx? Was Tina going to treat the audience to a spiritual rendition of “You’re a Grand Old Flag?”

The world will never know.

NOOOOOOOOOO!!!!! Can we start some kind of petition?? Can we loyal fans at least log on to see a WTA on abc.com??? PLEEEEEEEASE!!!!!! Did they even tape one? I'm so disappointed.

Chris Harrison, say it ain't so!

I'm willing to bet serious money they couldn't get enough of the rejects (especially the whack-jobs) to show, and the argument that it would be in any contract they sign doesn't fly. A good attorney could successfully argue against such a clause, simply by saying that his/her client didn't intend by agreeing to be ridiculed, humiliated, etc. Clearly the WTA show was one of the more popular episodes of the series!

well nuts. TWTA was my favorite! It's Our Host Chris Harrison's time to shine. And we had sooo many girls to look forward to this season! Oh well.

While disappointed that there is no WTA this season, I have to say, this is the funniest post this season. Reminds me of Lincee's humor from back in the email-days.

Is it pitiful that I can't WAIT for tonight???

I agree, anonymous 2:01. This was my favorite post of the season - too funny!

Amanda said...

This sounds completely idiotic, but the only reason I'm watching the Bachelor this season is so I can enjoy your blog. You are so funny!

Well that's a bummer!

Can someone fill me in on the principal thing? I'm in the dark?

Anonymous said...

Yeah--I came to this blog late and now I wonder what happened.
Do tell.

The principal at Amber's school was chewed out for giving Amber 22 days off and allowing ABC to come film the kids at the school. It didn't sound like even the principal knew why Amber needed the time off. I got the sense from the ABC 13 story tonight that the principal was fired, but maybe she resigned. Anyway, she has a lawyer and is petitioning (with the support of the PTO president and other parents) for her job back.

No WTA!? Very funny post Lincee, classic!
And, you have some crazy material to work with after tonight's show!!
Did you keep track of the number of times Amber rolled her eyes back into her head tonight? Eww! But, bless her heart....that limo ride home...poor girl.

Ko-Ko from Mo City said...

Yes, Amber boo-hooed and rolled those eyes to no end. But, did you notice Bevin and her dad had a joint moment of choke up. I kinda need dad to man up!!

Anonymous said...

I can't believe that there will not a WTA. That is my second favorite part of the season (Lincee's blog being the first). What are we to do? I agree with the petition idea., I want to hear Tina sing!!! It would be CLASSIC!!!! I don't know if I can handle this!!!!

Host Chris:

First no after the rose and now no women tell all? Those two are the best part of the show! I have to tell you it sucks having to search for information to find out what happened with the happy couple. And the women tell all was the best! It was nice to see some of the favorite girls come back and give the inside scoop on what happened in the house. I say bring them both back!

Was it me? Or did Amber's roommate look like Nicole Ritchie?

Anonymous said...

No, it was not just you. She did look like Nicole Ritchie.

In my opinion, this has been one of the BEST Bachelor seasons! I hope they can find more guys like Andy - that seem like genuine people and also provide us with many entertaining moments! He has been my fave, by far. I am sad that there will be no WTA... and no After the Rose??? I hadn't heard that one. Boo.

Anonymous said...

Anonymous @ 1:31- I totally agree! They probably didn't want to come back. I was looking forward to hearing KATE!!!

Can't wait for the recap of last nights episode- it was so cheese ball!

Bring back WTA!

Anonymous said...

Forgot to mention:

Our host Chris is looking especially good in the photo!

Yes, flattery might work!

Anonymous said...

Well all I can say.......is if Andy does choose Bevin, I hope to heck that he buys stock in Kleenex!! I wonder if she wants some cheese with that whine!!! Whew she whines a lot!!!

Crazyisa said...

OH NOOOOOOOOO! I love the WTA.
I can't wait for your recap Lincee.
Did someone count how many times Amber said that she was a very mature 23 y.old?

Evin said...

I wanted a counter for comments about Amber's maturity and for "your daughter is amazing!"

Anonymous said...

Did anyone hear how long Bevin has been divorced? I thought she said she had been divorced 15 years....but that would have made her 13 when she married....That can't be right....or maybe it can these days....

Anonymous said...

I think Bevin said she's been divorced for 6 years.

Anonymous said...

Bevin has been divorced for 6 years. I had a feeling he was going to say 'see ya' to Amby. The way he kissed her you could tell that he wasn't really into it. I think it's going to come down to Bev and Tessa. And how he said that he wants to fall in love with Tessa...that was so cute. I really like her and I hope that he picks her!!!!

Anonymous said...

Yeah, but I feel like he practically forced Tessa to say she wants to fall in love with him. I'm not so sure how natural it was, although they are super cute together!

Did Amber's principal really resign?

Anonymous said...

Where are they Now??
Past Bachelors and their Gals?

I am wondering what happened to the Nurse and Charlie? or if Renzy and whoever he picked.. are still together... ?? or what about the bachelor that picked "hard to get" Helene?? can't remember his name...
And all the rest.. etal..
If anyone one can refresh my memory.. I would love a mini recap before Licee posts today's scoop.
Thanks! HB

no more renzy and jen.

trista and ryan are having a baby.

i think oldie and mary are still together.

i also think jerry and his girl are still together.

as much as i can remember, everybody else is broken up.

Anonymous said...

As far as I know Charlie and his girl are still together, as are Byron and Mary -- they should be married by now, I think. Lorenzo -- the most annoying and cheesiest bach ever -- is apparently "hanging" out with irritating Ericka with the tiarra, after dumping his first and second choices. Whatever. That's all I know.

Anonymous said...

I thought Bevin's meltdown with her father (and his seeming mutual reaction) was very odd -- and her explanation for the divorce was weak. Andy clearly has issues with the subject (as is his right, however much the rest of us may accept it) and deserved to know about it LONG before the home date and minutes before meeting her family. And was that painting done by Bevin's mother "for the two of you" presumptuous or what?

On the subject of Amber: I don't know what constitutes "mature" for some people, but Andy called it right: the silly conversation over dinner with the too-much-eye-makeup roommate (and we won't even TOUCH the giggling when discussing the dog peeing on the rug!) was right out of a sorority. And then her sob-scene in the limo ("this just keeps happening to me, and I get my heart broken over and over!") was a replay of the blonde a few seasons back who was just TOO TOO beautiful to even be lumped together with her sister contestants -- then and now I just wanted to scream "GROW UP!" at the screen!!

anon 12:31 - I TOTALLY AGREE!!!

Anonymous said...

Poor frickin' Amber ... you're 23 you'll get over it. I really think it was Amber's roomie and the dog is that cinched Andy's decision. Andy doesn't appear to be the Pomeranian type.

Anonymous said...

I was also annoyed by how often she played with her hair. I liked her to begin with, but I am over it. Her roomate seemed to be about a burrito short of a combo plate.

Anonymous said...

I have no doubt he likes dogs -- witness the puppy all cuddled up to him at Tessa's house -- but Amber's dog was like dealing with a snotty kid -- NO guy could go for that!

Anonymous said...

I lost count how many "red flags" there were last night ...

Anonymous said...

One comment about Tessa's friend: her questions were rather inappropriate, and the fact that Andy was uncomfortable answering them wasn't necessarily a strike against him, IMHO. Asking specific questions about his feelings for the other women, and probing when it was clear he wasn't prepared to share that information was impolite. It was almost as though she wanted to torpedo the Andy/Tessa connection.

Lincee - where are you? I'm SO impatient!! I'm going to get fired as soon as I.T. checks how many times I've visited this website at work :)

Watch the full Amber limo cry ... http://abc.go.com/primetime/bachelor/index

Pretty funny ...
"I was looking forward to the overnight date and the ... (sob)"

Um, what exactly are you looking forward to, Amber? *wink, wink*

Anonymous said...

Two observations:

1) Did anyone notice ABC played the "Take a moment--say your goodbyes" mournful bass guitar music at several places during these hometown dates, when Andy was alone with some of the women?

2) Did Danielle's dad (bald drummer) remind anyone of the pitchfork-carrying guy in Grant Wood's painting, "American Gothic"? http://www.artic.edu/artaccess/AA_Modern/pages/MOD_5.shtml

Thanks for the updates girls...

Ugh............. ERICKA?!? I wouldn't have remembered the name..until you mentioned the "Tiarra".... He must not be doing to well with the ladies in NY...... I can't believe that he would be so desparate!
Glad to hear about Charlie and Sarah....
Back to the latest episode..
Amber- poor thing.. she fell to pieces. I think the more she started to cry and demand to know why he didn't pick her.. was confirmation to him.. that he shouldn't have! She wasn't a very pretty "cryer" was she...?! It just kept getting messier.. I wanted curl under my covers and hide... felt so bad for her! I also felt that "she" really was the one that didn't want Andy to meet her family... I thought it was "odd" that the Aunt couldn't meet... and then just appears at their door a few hours later. The whole thing was just "odd"

my favorite moment was the "I want to fall in love with you." It was so sweet and romantic and refreshing. She didn't say "I love you" or anything like that. She told the truth!

I did want to know how many times he said "Your daughter is amazing/wonderful/etc."
