allllllright. here we go again. let’s just jump right in, mmkay?
des drawing. this is deep.
i’m not sure drew is there for des, if you know what i’m sayin’.
des is wishing abc didn’t give her a convertible. #badhairdate
date 1: brooks bam-a-lam
wedding theme. stupid.
they think they’re so special OMG SITTING ON HOLLYWOOD sign. they haven’t seen friends with benefits. nbd. (also, good movie.)
so many metaphors, so little time.
instead of chandeliers on a bridge, put des and brooks in a family of five and then see how they do. (that’s an idea. no more fantasy dates. abc, here’s your next show: bachelorette real life uncut)
meanwhile, put stevesie and bridget on that bridge? sparks will flyyyyy.
group date:
have they always done these stupid organized group dates? i don’t remember these from seasons way back when but stop it, abc. just let the people hang out and drink in the pool and make fools of themselves.
it’s sad how many references to seasons past that i understood in that stupid rap.
ben: “i’m not the guy who’s gonna stab you in the back. ima stab you in the FRONT.”
zac. the journal. sweet. talked over each other, but sweet.
brandon: getting awful deep
ben gets the rose, the boys weep. (also, he’s smarmy.)
date 2: jim carrey (see for yourselves and then return.)
ok, he’s sweet.
let’s run through the fields! #alwayscheesynevercute
ojai. reminds me of brothers and sisters. which reminds me that i love sally fields house in that show.
best roadtrip you’ve ever had des? sorry des’ family. you took her on many. but this guy she’s known for ten minutes takes the win.
pictures of the car wreck? they love to get deep right away don’t they.
we had a fun time today. DIDNT WE DES. DIDNT WE HAVE A FUN TIME TODAY.
you can cut this awkward hot tub scene with a knife.
does she want to kiss him cause she wants to kiss him or because she can’t take the madness.
either way, i appreciate a woman who takes charge.
rose ceremony:
i don’t know 89% of the guys here so i think this one’ll be pretty painless for me.
diabetes-guy, you could’ve waited till maybe date 1 to share? does she know your name?
“oh my gosh” says des. oh my gosh you’re telling me this already is what she means.
annnnnnd ben.
mikey t. aka sopranos extra
michael g. just used my fave quote! it is what it is, man. yes michael g. it is what it is.
sopranos-extra likes to be in the fray.
group-huddle: take ben down.
nick m. i think this is the first time i’ve seen you. upon your exit.
scenes from next week:
if anyone’s tattooing des on their chest it’s brandon.
whooooo is the guy wearing the girl’s lululemon tank?
ben’s girlfriend seems like an actress. abc, you coulda done better.
sooooooo. i don’t have any clear favorites yet. it is what it is! hashtag michael g.
you? give it to me straight.
you just made me laugh so hard, bahaha- that jc pic got me!
you won't be able to un-see it now.
I love your idea about putting them in a family and seeing how they do! Ha! I remember bringing my new baby home and watching Sean's season and thinking "I might have a really wrecked body right now, but my husband loves me so much more than these two people love each other."
Life isn't all helicopters and fantasy suites. Still I love the show, so of course I'm blogging it 🙂
i'm gonna check yours out – and yes! of course they make it in this unrealistic fantasy world. and no wonder they all break up right afterwards!
hahaha, this is awesome, love your commentary!
your recaps are my favorite! jim carrey – yes. i loved his brie comment but it is so hard to get past his man-bangs.
also? i had the SAME thought about the tank top. not cute!
i did a post about the episode too if you wanna check it out!
http://asymphonyofgrace.blogspot.com/2013/06/can-we-just-talk-about-bachelorette-for.html
jef as next bachelor!! you're spot on (and love that he liked your tweet!!)
AH! You had me at Brothers and Sisters!
I miss Brothers & Sisters! Why do they always stop the good shows?!?!
love your commentary.
army guy just needs to buzz the whole thing and everything would be alright. i mean, not everything, but it's a start.
i like brandon. but he might be a little too clingy-emotional for me.
and why are all the guys acting like little girls? gag
brandon is toootally stage one clinger.
he could also use some gel and just mess it up a little
I have a Blog Giveaway if you are interested 🙂

Love your recaps! I was so not digging the rap song/video (and I also knew like all of the references in it, sad?)….can you say cheesy and uncomfortable?! And OMG, yes Jim Carrey…SO funny…that hair, I just can't get past it! It is what it is (one of my all time favorite quotes too….I use it all the time)!!!
Spot on recap – I love it! I also immediately thought of Brothers & Sisters when they went to Ojai. This season isn't really doing it for me so far, but as long as it's on, I'll be watching. Cutting the ties would be too hard?
-Ashley
i have to admit, the last few seasons have been less exciting for me (i miss the trista and ryans of the past!). i might pack in my bach-watching one of these days… :-
"smarmy" just made my morning. perf description for that dude.
friends w benefits is a GREAT movie.
this baby is really getting in the way of my bachelorette watching. Whichever baseball guy (I gotta get the name from JB) was his roomie for a baseball season!
get out! tell me the name!
This has nothing to do with this post but I was looking at your instagram pics on this page (I don't have an instagram account…shameful, I know)and that pic of Parker in the glasses for Everett's bday is THE cutest picture EVER….fav Parker picture of all time!!! Just sayin…..
ha! it's ridiculous isn't it? that's the way he woke up the other morning- crazy bed head, put steve's glasses on, and started picking his nose….
I think that hair should be his new look and he should get himself some glasses….he can totally pull that cool little professor look off (maybe minus the nose picking, ha)!!!
I think your recaps are the best!!
thank you alice!
is his name really Brooks Forrester? is he Brooke and Ridge's love child? (yes we still watch Bold and the Beautiful in South Africa)
http://www.fanpop.com/clubs/the-bold-and-the-beautiful/images/4990138/title/brooke-ridge-photo
ha!! i see it!
I think Brooks got on the wrong show. I believe he signed up to date a Bachelor, not a Bachelorette. These guys are super girly and dramatic and emotional. Ugh.
Love this! Uh, this last week was so awkward for so many reasons!
I love that you recap the bachelorette! We have weekly Bachelorette parties at my house every week-my husband pretends to hate it, but I know he secretly likes it!
