Mastercard moment (i.e. priceless) of the episode - Ms. SLC (I'm not sure that "Miss" is appropriate, so I'll go with "Ms.") is talking with Emily near the beginning of the episode and Ms. SLC notes how "self-absorbed" Chantal is. The look on Emily's face at that moment was priceless! Maybe that's one of the reasons Emily is my favorite.<br /><br />b. For all of her supposed bravado, I actually think that Ms. SLC may lack in self-confidence. It was actually getting a little pathetic. She spends all of her time with Brad talking about how Chantal is not good for Brad. Huh? It's not really the basis or foundation for any relationshiop. Ms. SLC, why don't you talk to Brad about all that you have to "offer." Maybe deep down, you're not so sure you have much.<br /><br />c. On that note, I sometimes wonder if Ms. SLC is really into Brad or she's really into playing the villainess role on the show to further her own fame and fortune. Ms. SLC would trade Brad for fame and fortune in a nanosecond.<br /><br />d. Not a surprise that Jennifer Garner went home. She really didn't have too much to say to him during their date. It really seemed very awkward.<br /><br />e. Brooke, keep up the good work and thanks so much for the entertaining posts.Greghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06418540569956629745noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4671219598257411453.post-46962861515831224732011-02-09T14:21:38.926-08:002011-02-09T14:21:38.926-08:00Hilarious as usual.Hilarious as usual.Jillhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09032420498045893374noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4671219598257411453.post-61086136809904217572011-02-08T22:19:46.719-08:002011-02-08T22:19:46.719-08:00There are so many reasons why I shouldn't watc...There are so many reasons why I shouldn't watch this show! I'm such a feminist and the lack of diversity seriously seriously appalls me and yet, I...can't help myself. <br /><br />It all boils down to Brad. What a dreamboat. It's his total honesty and chivalry toward all the women. Chantal (horrible horrible dresser!), Brit (did you see her heart-shaped sunglasses? Hearts must her thing.) and Emily are my faves. <br /><br />I don't watch this show enough to know the format, but I wonder if Brit all of the sudden becomes a frontrunner, even though she hasn't had much alone time with Brad? Or is she more likely to be sent home at this point?Emhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16762588038941738868noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4671219598257411453.post-56132173861544715122011-02-08T21:26:14.400-08:002011-02-08T21:26:14.400-08:00Seriously, I couldn't get over Chantel's B...Seriously, I couldn't get over Chantel's Betty Rubble dress either. That girl has some bad dresses. I like her though and I liked her date with Brad. Weird that she got a second date before Brit's had a first. There definitely seems to be a LOT of lounge-wear amongst the girls. I have some questions I'd like answered:<br />Are these girls on lock down when they aren't out with Brad? <br />Do they get to work out?<br />Why are they always drinking calories when they are hanging out around the house? <br />And while usually the exotic locales make me pine to visit, I agree that Costa Rica looks like the pits.Ashleyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12695860217448111937noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4671219598257411453.post-30410099256009928242011-02-08T21:01:59.866-08:002011-02-08T21:01:59.866-08:00I bet Michelle's off the next week, but I agre...I bet Michelle's off the next week, but I agree that she makes the show, it's so fun to watch her.

I laughed so hard last night. Michelle is awesome. I love every stupid thing about her. The show would be so boring without her. Sometimes I wonder if Brad really is that stupid to keep her around or if the producers are talking him into it. She's crazy. And I hate the braids, on all of them.

It was an innovative way to get a kiss. <br /><br />However, Chantel's big "I'm falling in love with you statement" was a little awkward.

Trying to keep up with the competition? ;)It's okay Michelle, I couldn't have pulled that off either--but I wouldn't have tried. :)Emily could do anything to her hair and still look cute! As for poor Michelle, even if she stopped talking I'd have issues with her because I feel like I have enough of an idea of what's going through her head! In Michelle's defense,I probably wouldn't like myself either, if I had to watch myself on the big screen. It's hard enough to see myself in the mirror without wanting to Photoshop myself. ;)Stephanie Eldredgehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01189471555578047071noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4671219598257411453.post-20412216554657028552011-02-08T15:19:51.404-08:002011-02-08T15:19:51.404-08:00And Michelle's hair when she went to see Brad....And Michelle's hair when she went to see Brad.

She is so pretty but just seemed out of place. I was stressing out when Chantal was going to have a private talk with Brad! I thought for sure that she was going to diss on Michelle...and that would bug me. I am so glad that instead she focused on her feelings towards Brad and left Michelle to her own inevitable demise. heehee. So, that was a relief and made me like Chantal even more!<br /><br />After last night's episode, even as entertaining as Michelle's clumsy antics are, I can't wait for her to leave! She couldn't have picked a better (or should I say worse) time to pop in on Brad and show her true colors. It was great to see that Brad was finally clueing in on her craziness. It gave me joy when she started her moves on him and trying to unbutton his shirt and he squirmed away, "What is wrong with you?" haha. Oh, and loved how she numbered the order of girls that he needed to send home next. His reaction to her was fun to watch.<br /><br />When it came time for the Rose Ceremony, I couldn't wait to see Michelle go home empty-handed. I waited and waited for what I believed was the inevitable moment...and was shocked when her name was called. Everyone that was in the room watching with us reacted in unison, "Noooooo!" <br /><br />How could he keep her after all that drama? She's like a venomous snake bite--cut the wound and suck out the venom before it's too late! At least he made her wait until last. Next week has to be her final week! Right? This is such torture!Stephanie Eldredgehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01189471555578047071noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4671219598257411453.post-31362903555286013622011-02-08T13:52:03.274-08:002011-02-08T13:52:03.274-08:00Christie--

I was a little disappointed that you weren't able to draw a Betty Rubble comparison with Chantel's outfit last night because that's all that popped into my mind everytime the camera showed her. I do like her though.<br />You are right about Michele's skin. Her hair color and skin are gradually morphing into the same fake orange color. Too much spray tan???<br />Anyway, love your posts and analysis. Good luck on Club Phat!<br />Christycjdustinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15059000573018416063noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4671219598257411453.post-72599382406139351992011-02-08T13:33:00.364-08:002011-02-08T13:33:00.364-08:00I'm a blog stalker but love your bachelor post...I'm a blog stalker but love your bachelor posts! What did you think of all the girls with their French braids? It reminded me of when people go on vacation and they think it's a great idea to get corn rows with little beads attached. I think it worked on a few of the girls but didn't help Michelle at all (especially when she did the surprise visit to Brad.) <br /><br />I loved Chantal and Brad's date. They just seem like they're meant to be together. She doesn't have any fashion sense at all (why didn't someone on the show give her a head's up?) but I think that makes it even better that Brad doesn't care. He just really likes her.<br /><br />Such awesome TV!<br />KariAlex McMurrayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12636281520429497427noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4671219598257411453.post-46131186794538580732011-02-08T13:16:42.812-08:002011-02-08T13:16:42.812-08:00Well, it's about time!

I'm finding myself looking forward to your posts and I expect you to do better since I will be waiting two hours ahead. be considerate, please!<br /><br />You didn't mention how Michelle thought that Chantal was "so egotistical", etc., etc. All I could think was that she was describing herself...and I think Emily was right there with me.<br /><br />You are so right about Chantal's hair. I was hoping he wouldn't dump her just because of how bad it looked.Denisehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07698512108292469182noreply@blogger.com
