Episode 8 (HTD's) - 2/18 - Bachelor 17 - Discussion - Spoilers

Each of these ladies have unique qualities that Sean was attracted to. Teachers play an amazing role in the lives of children, substitute teachers, and paraprofessionals. Lindsey seems to be the underdog this season on the board among the top 4. I like all of them and each has their own unique character and good qualties. Neither of these girls are smarter or better than the other in my opinion. As Sean would say God is Love :Smiley:

Ooooo I luv your post

Now back to HTDs . Each gal is unique and each experience the same .. Tho to me it does appear that Catherine does get the type of date that shows Sean the who and why of who she is

Ooo .. And BTW and FYI .. Lindsey recently found her dream job .. So yes .. She seems gainfully employed .. As a TEACHER :bigsmile:

If she is now employed as a teacher then she wont be the bachelorette right???

On Lindsay's Instagram, she never mentions the show except to poke fun at herself or express her love for her fellow cast mates in pics. She's asked people not to post anything negative about them there. She occasionally thanks fans for support. There were a couple of photos when she first returned that referred to her experience and they were quickly taken down.

She's in Vegas this weekend so not in LA prepping for a new role. Not sure where the other contenders are but it would seem the prep window is narrowing - a month away from filming starting?

Yes, there are similarities in personalities between Cat and Lindsay. They're both showing their "fun" side. I prefer Cat not because I have the wnner's syndrome. Like krisily on their After show comment, Lindsay's voice annoys the hell out of me! I'm a meanie, I know. :((

I was so afraid to say that (see bolded) as I hate to be negative towards any of them. They are all deserving of true love but I feel the same. :bigsigh:

Opinions are good. Opinions are why we're here. Hope we ALL know that's it's just fun, not rocket science, and that none of us really know much of anything about these people. If JEM taught us anything, it's that!

And they are all really good, great girls, those final five including Leslie.

Truthfully, I would watch any of them as the Bachelorette. I was one that did not care for Ashley on Brad 2 season and I turned around watching her on her season.

I remember a lot of fans mooooooooaned about Ashley Hebert (whoooo? WHY HER? UGH, I won't watch! She will be terrible!) being named the Bachelorette. On Brad's season she got a litle too drunk and she seemed clingy and insecure. (I think Brad had to give Ash a pity rose on a group date because she was pouting and being insecure, but I may be remembering that wrong.) TPTB put her through the wringer with the Bentley edit for the first few episodes but she was viewed in a favorable light (by most) at the end of her Bette season.

Ashley found herself a great husband who adores and respects her. I give Ash (and JP) credit for taking the process seriously and working hard on the relationship after the show was over. That whole moving and long commute thing would've killed most Bach relationships.

So someone like Lindsey may surprise us. :) Then there are duds like Jake, but we knew that would be a train wreck because he was so fake on Jillian's season.

AshLee and Lindsey are not on my list of faves but I'll give them a chance. My preference is Catherine or Desiree, and I think Cat is off the market.

I am so excited for tomorrow's episode!

Oh, I will give any of them a chance. No matter who is cast as the lead, I will still be watching for the eye candy :Drool: and the travel if for nothing else.

I admit that I am addicted to this dumb show. I would just like to watch someone I enjoy from the start. Having said that, I am usually correct in how much I will enjoy a season based on who the lead is...Ashley is the one exception. I just wish they would hurry up and make the announcement and put us out of our misery.

I really hope that -- whoever the Bachelorette is -- they let the guys know ahead of time who they're signing up for. That was the worst thing about Ashley's season for me ... that many of the guys were disappointed it was her. I felt bad for her.

We likely will have to be miserable for at least another week. If it's Lindsay, they won't be able to announce until the live finale and if it's AshLee, it will be at the earliest after next week and likely not until the WTA.
