t4p !

Really nice picture - he somehow looks different. But I'm so happy he looks happy and has not been jaded but everything :yes:

I will say that all of the pictures that I have seen of Drew (after the show wrapped up) don't show a man with a "forced smile". He really does to seem to be at peace with whatever happened during and after the show, and he certainly seems to have a very supportive family to fall back on.

Is that his dad on the right, the tall man with the dark hair, and it that is mom standing right next to him, too?

The guy in the yellow shirt is his Dad.

That is a nice turn of phrase. I normally find that f2/f3s seen post season do look a little sad/jaded/egos hurt/angry etc. and then wonder how they can turn around in a matter of weeks to announce that they are the next lead. (Ben for example).

Now I can honestly say that if Drew is considered for the next lead, then I won't have those doubts in my mind. He really does seem to be doing great in all bts photographs.

ETA : Hopefully my family won't go crazy tonight and allow me to watch the show fully but they better be showing us why Drew should be the next bachelor !!! They have already started the upswing with Chris but Drew has yet to be showcased !
I was surprised that they did not highlight him at the pool last week except for the brief 'i'm here for you' to Des.

So, is the woman standing next to Drew's dad, the tall man in the yellow shirt, Drew's mom then? I guess that the other man in a yellow shirt, who is standing more in the middle, is his grandfather.

Sorry if this has already been discussed, but how many siblings does Drew have? There sure are a lot of people in that picture taken on Fathers Day.

Drew has two sisters and a brother. His parents are divorced since he was really young.

The deleted scene with Desiree was nice, but I didn't get his 'close your eyes' thing and then him talking about how he helped take care of his mentally handicapped sister while growing up.

I doubt I'll end up getting to watch that scene but clearly the editors did not feel that is was part of the storyline that they are trying to put out and therefore left it on the cutting floor.

Not sure where they are going with his edit but seemingly there is enough footage that warrants him to be in the F4 (and beyond) later in the season.

The one thing I will say when some of us are griping about the lack of ST Drew has got till now which implies that they are NOT looking at him for the next lead is this - Drew is inherently a shy guy. TP probably have figured this out. Plus IMO from the few PIs etc. we have got of him narrating the show he seems extremely intellegent. This may be a problem if he was the lead with a bunch of bimbos hoping to be his future wife. So its probably a good thing all around.

BTW - Can anyone SC Drew in the PI at the start of the show for me ? It was the one where he was excited about the journey and said something about Love and traveling (or something). Anyone remember what he said? That was deep.
He looked really good there.

The only guys getting screen time to me are Zak and Chris, so I don't buy that it has to do with that. Heck, even Juan Pablo doesn't get any screen time and could easily be in the running, if the show wanted.

I don't see any reason not to show Drew. I say, 'so what', if he's not in the running. Just show him already.

I don't see any reason not to either. And apprently there is a demand for more Drew time from viewers laugh out loud

But our voices aren't being heard.

Some unspoiled folks have suspected that he is F1 and is being 'kept' hidden. Thats funny but they are unspoiled. But if you think of it, there has been a physical connection between them from the start and even last night we saw them arm-in-arm for the GD 1on1 and as well as the pre-RC 1on1. So its not like there is nothing there. There has been a lot of touching etc. taking place since epi1 between them but hardly any shown.
Unless if course there was a connection and they are not showing it so that there is no trouble in paradise. Thats all I can come up with. Yet they are barely showing anything with the F1 also.

Total head scratcher! I want more Drew, Chris and Brooks...far less Bryden, Ben, Mikey and James! I know that I'll soon get my wish because they will be gone, but we're just wasting time on them.

He was jus trying to make the moment memorable. The guys who are yet to get 1-on-1 dates have all done something to make what little time they do get, interesting.

I noticed the part where Drew said "she was born severely...." about his sister, was a VO added to his real statement. It was too obvious! Of course, he had told Des all about his sister's condition and didn't need to repeat it, so casually. That is why Des facial expression didn't change to that of concern or anything. Someone could have noticed how fake it came off and this may be why the scene was cut...or, maybe I'm giving the producers too much credit.
