Thanks a bunch.

I think they just made a poor choice of a lead and are scrambling.   You'd have thought they'd have learned by now.  Wrong Bachelor.  Should have picked Arie.   Or better yet, call Canada.  I cant wait for Bach Can 2.   Those producers are smart, have guts, and great casting instincts.  They also had Brad's back.  

JuanPa TM has trouble expressing himself. I would love to know (from any of you bilingual members) if he has similar trouble expressing himself in Spanish.  I dont assume, at this point, that it's merely an English issue.  

I would also like to hear what bilingual members feel about this.  I am not really bilingual but speak Spanish, lived in latin america for a couple of years and have south american friends with varying English skills. My first impression is that the difficulty IS language and, to a lesser degree, culture-based.  I think there have been plenty of non brainiac answers given at these teleconferences by past leads, but doing it - on the phone - in a second language is not easy.

I also think he'll be more entertaining and less scripted/cheesy than most of his recent predecessors.

I think part of this depends on your personal tastes. If you think an accent and a good body is sexy...then he's your man. If your tastes run to someone with more depth...then I doubt he is it. I also don't think he has much of a sense of humour...at least the way that I define it...able to laugh at yourself. More and more I am getting a Jake vibe. He was trying to be Mr. Perfect and JPab is trying to be the fun loving Latino.

I am bilingual. Even though I learned Croatian first, my English is much more fluent. Nevertheless, I can still carry on a coherent conversation of substance in that language as well. He was 2 when they went back to Venezuela and was back again at 16. That is still young enough to get the language and he has been living in the US for a while. I really don't think the language is the issue as much as he is. He just doesn't appear that bright...case in point...he didn't even notice that Sharleen was not that enthused about the first impression rose.

I am not bilinqual. I can understand him perfectly.

So can I and I am happy they finally chose someone of a different culture to be the lead after twenty something seasons of the show.

Just a question, do we know for sure by our own sleuthing that what RS says about the final 1 is correct...or are we just going off of what he said like last season?

There hasn't been much sleuthing here and I have not seen anyone else here confirm the F1.

Ok, so still a possibility of Claire being F1??

With the edit she's getting, I find that highly unlikely. I think she will be F2.

It's too bad no one cares about this season because no sleuthing is being done :(

I guess most people are tired of the sleuthing. We'll just keep watching, someone may notice something that may prove or disprove the spoilers.

Hmmmm....Jimmy Kimmel picked Andi as F3, Renee as F2 and Nikki as F1. Did Juan Pablo give anything away with the talk about tweeting?
