Bachelorette 10 - *Sleuthing - Spoilers*

ThankMeLater wrote:Could it just be since the season just recently ended that they weren't done editing the last episodes?

No. Other B'ette seasons show something at least. They all finish filming within days of the premier episode. Even Jillians' season had something of Kiptyn and Reid in it at the end.

Quick question(s): Has RS's video spoiler been picked up by any form of media...like Wetpaint or any other tabloid-y outlet? I haven't seen anything, but I've also been pretty busy and haven't been able to keep up with the threads here.

So, if not, why do you think that is? If not, does that make it more likely that the video is a set up or is it more likely to be a real scoop on RS's part?

As I'm working through some things in my mind regarding the edit, I find I'm beginning to entertain the conspiracy theory aspect of the video. That's not usually how I think, but something is not adding up to me right now. I need to ponder it some more, but I'm curious to see if or how RS's spoiler is being handled since the news broke.

Maybe Fleiss has threatened all of the media not to publish it or he will never give them any info again?

RS said in his video blog last night that he knew this video spoiler would not get picked up by entertainment sites such as people.com. He said that they have a working relationship with ABC and if they were to report on it Fliess would cut off access to the cast.

I don't think it will be picked up by anyone but WetPaint. The rest of the tabloids/media want to stay on the TPTB's good side so they can continue to have access and get info.

This all ties in with this interesting story about Amy Kaufmann, the LA Times writer who recapped the show, being denied access to teleconferences, interviews because she was too negative about the show. http://jezebel.com/the-bachlorette-denies-reporter-access-because-shes-too-1580037766?utm_campaign=socialfow_jezebel_twitter&utm_source=jezebel_twitter&utm_medium=socialflow

Does anyone know if there has been a season when the F1's introduction video was not shown either during the first episode or on ABC's website?

This season we don't get to see Nick and Marcus's video's.  

With out relying on the spoilers I'm just wondering if this may be a clue to who is the F1

Sometimes certain "truths" take flight around here and it is always nice to see proof proof proof.

Which goes back to the missing SCs around ep6 /7. As I recall there was no SC proof in the previews that Nikki had a 1on1 date in ep7 Miami. But we had RL pictures that confirmed it. So they do skip stuff from the previews.

But never have we had a complete blackout post HTDs. They normally give us at least 1 or 2 SCs of FDs/LCDs. Even for Des' season with the whole revolving door to her heart.
This season  - nothing. It does get suspicious when something like this happens.

That's so true.  Absolute facts is the way to go. I got a feeling that Chris is the absolute hidden guy this time around as there are those caps missing for epi 6/7 and like you said, the FD/LCD caps are completely missing this time around.

For me Chris had the F1 feel from the promos and the episode, he got a good edit without being too in your face and he wasn't shown as much in previews. Nick seemed to be too obvious from the previews, and based on the phone conversation he definitely met the family.... so I guess F2.

But I still feel like the theme this season is going to be "my type" vs. "not who I would usually go for" which I feel like is more Josh vs. Nick. But it just seems weird to me that the story board would be: Andi is single because she always goes for one type of guy and then through the journey still picks that "type" of guy.

Wasn't that one of the main reasons people argued that Brooks wasn't the one last year, as the theme was she always fell in love with the wrong person or no one ever loved her as much as she loved them. The only way her journey was to come full circle (reason for being single) was picking Chris who was the one that loved her equally.

Maybe the theme this year is more along the lines of parents know best? After all, we've seen how their families are reacting to the possibility of them being together. To mom and dad, this is a match made in heaven.

But then it makes less sense that they edited Hy out ...

I think they did that for just that reason. They didn't want people to assume Hy persuaded her towards JoSh because he knew of him and his mother contacting him.

I realize that most of the entertainment news might stay away from such a rumor to protect their relationship with MF, however give it time. It think it will come out just at the appropriate time, or maybe it has already done it's job.

Great question! I noticed in the Guy's moving Vid which was posted today, sorry I forget by who, there was no site of Marcus. I see Josh everywhere in the clips. He had a lot of camera shots in epi 1 as well.

It would be interesting to compare to other seasons. I couldn't even begin to comment, being Canadian, I don't bother watching any vids on ABC, 99% of the time we can't view them.

Of the final four in the respective seasons:

Ali = Chris L, Frank, Kirk
Ashley = Jp, Ben, Ames
Emily = Jef, Arie
Des= Drew, Zack


Jason = Melissa/yes Molly/no Jillian/yes
Jake = Vienna/Tenley/Gia/Ali yes
Brad 2.0= Emily/Chantal/Ashley/Shawntel all yes
Ben = Courtney/Lindzi/Nicki/Kacie all yes
Sean = Ashlee and Desiree only
Juan P = Nikki, Clare, Andi, and Renee

For Emily's season Sean had his as a deleted scene on the bachelor website. Same for Cat, hers was a deleted scene.
