DeAnna, SHUT UP!

Those were my exactly my thoughts!!

Gotta say my two favorite people coming out of this episode were Ames and Jeff LOL. Ali was adorable and Deanna was the best I have ever seen her... love has treated that girl well that's for sure!

ETa: Tim also seemed great... I wish he would have stuck around longer.

As much as I dislike D, she came across much much softer than She ever has.

LOVED seeing Jason

Here you go girl...

"When I look at Ashley I see a great woman, a smart woman, a beautiful woman, a great mother, a great friend. Ashley and I balance each other out perfectly. Whenever we're around each other it's just easy and comfortable and fun. It's a chemistry you can't ignore, it's just there. And it's hard to put into words, it's just, you know that it's right. I can't be without her. I don't want to picture a life without her. I am more confident with the direction that this relationship is heading than I have ever been and I am so ready for everything to be out there, for us to be engaged and for us to move on with the rest of our lives."

The first time I saw JP I thought he was absolutely gorgeous. He has a smile that could make anybody happy and I remember thinking 'how did I get this lucky?' Sometimes you don't need 20 dates to know how you feel about somebody and with JP, after the first date, I knew things would get pretty serious. My relationship with JP is everything I've ever wanted in a marriage. We have this passion for each other but we also have this magical unspoken connection where it's so easy and it feels like I've know him forever. He's such a loyal guy, he's committed, he's going to be a great family man and the thing that I love most about JP is just the way he makes me feel. When I'm with him I don't have a care in the world. He is the total package for me.

Thanks so much for getting that here. WOW! They certainly threw in the towel this season. Yes, it SOUNDS like Jordan recorded that post-show or after the FRC.

Ben once again got the “boyfriend” voice-over.

A few final observations after re-watching much of it again…

I guess we can now pinpoint the Start of the Love Story to episode #3. That DVD scene and the sleeping (with the snoring possibly dubbed to make it less “intimate”) pretty much spoke “done deal” to me. She was VERY comfortable indeed with him. Of course, she wanted to give everybody an equal chance, but JP sure looks like he was ahead of the pack before Phuket. Bentley was already history hours after departure, but I guess she just had to the get the dot-dot-dot resolved? I don’t know. Loved her facial reaction to the rare outtake with JP awakened by Masked Jeff. Also, great catch to Alanna and others here for the mixing of voice-overs to “balance” Ben’s footage, using a key intended-for-JP comment over Ben.

As for Next Bachelor, this is my “vibe”: They want either Ben or Ames as their first choices, but supposedly those two are not accepting due to already being in a relationship or simply refusing. Have to see how Ben is presented on ATFR.

Ryan was given a better presentation than he did on the show. The nerdy by-the-book method of romance (West hilariously comparing his technique to a math test) could be used as his storyline, like Jake being “perfect” (thus picking Vienna to challenge his critics) and Brad having a shrink aid him on his journey.

I also think either Mickey or West could be a darkhorse alternative, but they were not presented with enough material. West has the in-law “trouble”, which probably hurt his chances… yet, you can tell they were initially planning him as a candidate.

Phew! I went back to read all of the discussion about the show and just now caught up! LOVED the bloopers, hearing from Drunk Tim, Ashley's dress, and the interaction with Ashley and Ali! Here's to being done with BNB FOREVER*!!!

I can't wait for the MTA to be on hulu so I can re-watch all of the Jash stuff!

:Woah-hoo:


*unless he goes on BP :vomit:

Bloopers at the end

Perfect menu for watching the show, Princess ... and let us not forget the wine .... New York State wine, in honor of JP!

I posted the whole episode in the video-no discussion thread

Thanks so much for posting those Carrie. Ashley's reaction to the JP sleeping blooper is very telling. Could the girl have a more excited completely gaga grin on her face? Wow!

It just astounds me that they are not trying to make it look close between Ben and JP. It astounds me even more that Ben truly thought he was F1. Poor sweet Ben. I have a feeling TPTB played with him big time.

It's sad they had to resort to voice overs she was saying about JP, and made it appear it was Ben. They did that last year. Ali said Roberto fell out of her dreams and into her life, but the voice over was when they showed Ali and Chris FD date. Sneaky devils. So her saying " I can see myself with him for a lifetime", was what she said about JP, not Ben. Alanna picked up on right away and posted that. I didn't realize til she said something.
