The Bachelor 18 Spoilers/Speculation - Media - Discussion

Iploeg wrote:I was looking for an article run by The National Enquirer last season on Catherine's dad when I came across this exclusive on Juan Pablo. I thought you guys here might want to discuss about it. It might give a better idea of who Juan Pablo is i.e. if the report is true. Sorry I'm unable to embed it.

Ps. After reading it, I understand JuPa's reasons for going on the show. He'll now be in a better position to pay child support.

According to this article l found way back when..Bachelor Juan Pablo Galavis is worth: $1.2 million in 2013. So for me that amount below you would think would be paid off by now with that type of net worth but that's JMO.
The Florida Department of Rev­enue’s Child Support Enforcement Program slapped Juan Pablo with an income deduction order, requiring employers to automatically deduct $243.94 per month for child support, plus $49.00 per month for retroactive child support until the outstanding balance of $3,574.57 was paid.

I am "here". But I don't know how much involvement will come from me. I did not watch last night and don't plan on viewing last night's show. For the first time in the history of this franchise--I have no interest in the season. I won't view the Yawn wedding for the same reason. But I do enjoy the camaraderie here so will frequent here per usual.   

ditto... I erased it off my DVR...it's just not "must watch" this 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??

RS is very confident and was even tweeting earlier that the "The crash and burn heartbreak Clare is being set up for is going to reach "epidemic proportions." ... Of course he was also very confident last season and we know how that turned out but, I think he will be on the money this time. There is way too much of Clare being shown everywhere tonight and in all the previews. Classic edit of F2.

Yep, true about the F2, but remember how sure he was that Brooks was F1 and that blew up in his face right nicely.

Even though Fleiss is touting his great TV ratings, I wonder how much RS will suffer financially if initial interest wears off.

Last season with Des sucked in the ratings but he said his traffic went up anyway.

So which thread are we supposed to use for sleuthing? This is a media thread. I'd be more inclined to try to participate if we had a thread for it. Last season the sleuthers proved RS wrong fairly early in the game....but the Brooks fans and RS fans wouldn't listen. Makes it hard to want to sleuth again.

I know the people in the non spoilers thread are sleuthing...at least analysing the screencaps and such.

You're right! I said it early in the season that Brooks didn't come back, and that he wasn't the F1. I knew so because I work with Chris and his demeanor indicated he was the F1. However, every time I mentioned Brooks not being the F1, I would get comments like "I'm 100% sure Brooks is F1, just wait and see." So, I gave up trying to convince people otherwise. RS has been right more than wrong, but last season they purposely gave him every single spoiler EXCEPT for the F1. So, this tells me that Fleiss and company can control their "mole" and release any info they want, and subsequently plant incorrect information as well.

Exactly why we need to sleuth, rose. At least analyze screencaps and figure out if RS was correct about the F3.

I am one of those 'Brooks fans' and I was the one asking if it was Drew in the F3 and not Zak.

The only reason I could tell was due to RS letting us know where the F3 filming would be and watched about every youtube vid possible to see what dates they could go on. So, to act like RS doesn't bring something to the table is wrong to me (although, he is a jerk).

I am not going to bother 'sleuthing' anything about Juan Pablo's season, because it doesn't change anything. People still act like the F1 is better than everyone else, just due to them being F1. The show has become too predictable and I really don't care if he found someone or not (unlike with Desiree, I did).

I don't know about this F1 though Atem, if it is Nikki and she really is the villain!

That is true. I worded that poorly. That was a general statement of how I think this show treats people and how basically people use where the person 'places' as a means of their worth or whether you can say something about them or not.

I had decided to sit out this season. JuanPa doesn't do it for me and I didn't think he was in it for the right reasons. I ended up watching pieces of last week's show and he seems more genuine than I expected. But I'm not interested in sleuthing that much and think a break will be good. After watching every season except Brad 1 and Deanna, my family and friends are shocked I'm sitting this one out.

Will miss 'talking' with all of you. Will probably pop in to lurk from time to time.
