Re: Tweet/Facebook Updates - Bachelor 17 - Thread #1

In the 3rd RC, Alex eliminated half of the contestants from 15 down to 8.

I could see Sean doing this one but can't remember if anyone since then has cut the cast so quickly.

According to TVGuide, it was the 2nd episode that he went from 15 women to 8. Then, in Episode 3, he went from 8 women to 4. And the 4th episode was the hometown dates. There were only 7 episodes in Season 1 including the Women Tell All.

Do you think he would cut more women an episode than usual and have fewer episodes than past seasons?

Could be. Futon Critic still shows the return of The Bachelor TBA in January on its winter grid and it doesn't list how many episodes are planned. In a couple of interviews, Sean stated how he doesn't like dating women - just to date - if he can't see them as a life partner.

The only other odd thing was that two friends of Alex moved into the mansion to help him with the process but there have been "decoys" in the midst since the first season. I agree that others have declined the rose since the first season, too.

Didn't Ben do that? But I don't think they aired it.

Good ol' Jesse Palmer pulled that one. Season 5 I think that was.

Looks like they'll be filming a date in downtown Whitefish, MT on Wednesday per this tweet from the local paper. I put the article in the filming schedule discussion thread.

I didn't know that! Isn't that a bit of a Catch 22? He doesn't like dating women if he can't see them as a life partner. Ok. How can he tell if she would be a good life partner unless he's dated her? ESP? Or does he just go for the very superficial. He really thinks he can look at a person in real life, spend a few hours and know whether or not they'd be a life partner? That's surely not the golden rule.

Aside from that...what a godawful season we are in for if he will only date his future life partner who is undoubtedly on a different show than this one.

On season 1, two people quit at the same time (Frances and Anindita). I don't think that has happened since.

Hey, Mr. Write! Good to see you. Can you help us sleuth this season? You are the best at locations.

Nice! Maybe that could be it.
