Re: Nick Viall Bachelorette 10 - Fan Forum - Updates - Discussion - Thread #9

Just a little tidbit. My DIL's friend was watching this season and so I asked my DIL tonight what she thought of the end.  She said the friend was SHOCKED, she thought for sure Nick was the F1 and she does not go on any MB's.

So it just goes to show it was not just those of us that read MB's, others as well saw what we saw.  

Thanks Brill; it's been hot on this thread all night. I only saw Nick as F1.

Well, thanks Ash for telling us about the video. I googled it  :giggle: 
Boy, tonight I can't sleep. I've been doing analysis for one project for tomorrow and it's almost morning. Great, I'll be fired up by adrenalin till the midday.

What I love the best about the whole fiasco of a season was that, even though the TPTB edited him badly and Andi tried to make him look bad post show, Nick stuck to who he is.  He didn't 't have to backtrack/change his story because he was being genuine throughout and after the season. And he shouldn't for one minute not be proud of that. But that can't be said for Andi.

YES, unknown, great post.   
Nick is an authentic guy, it's very hard to make lies stick to authentic; they ultimately fall away.
On the other hand, as you suggest with Andi, it's hard to make stories sound real no matter how much or how often you insist when they are hollow!

ITA. He was consistent in all his post show interviews, and he understood his actions/words were controversial, he admitted it and said he took full responsibility for it. Even when the plane video was brought up, he acknowledged it, saying he was a mess and  wished he could have taken what he'd said about Josh back. I remember when some us fans reminded him about favoring not so appropriate tweets, he acted the same way, owning up to it and thanked his fans.   

sdmom; thanks for reminding us about his response to fan outreach! Nick is a peach!

And his new profile…..

Nicholas Viall
@viallnicholas28
Says what's on my mind, but always from my heart. Son, Brother, Friend. Living in Chicago, will always call Milwaukee home. One time I was on tv.

I like it, I like it a lot!

Me too! Nick is moving on and is going to be just fine!

Found it.

  what the h*** do they "sing"?

    That video is so funny!  They don't appear to know the words very well, but all of them are so adorable!  I'm glad to see that Nick has made some very good friends this season!

I still think that TB showed the LS that they saw and that was between Nick and Andi. I believe Andi got scared in the end and that's why she chose differently.  Nick is a very perceptive guy.  He's very aware of what's going on around him. Why would he let his guard down if he wasn't sure that Andi felt the same way about him?  He was sure of her reciprocating his feelings that's why he had a hard time understanding why she changed her mind at the last minute.  Because he couldn't process what she did, he was consumed of trying to find answers. Hence,  trying to contact her twice, writing the letter and what he let slipped at the ATFR.  I think if Nick had any doubts of her feelings he wouldn't have tried to contact her and would never have written that heartbreaking letter.  I wish I were more articulate like some here but I can never be convinced that Andi was just acting with Nick and that she was in love with Josh all along.  The producers didn't see a Josh and Andi love story neither did I and so many others, therefore they couldn't show it during the show. Also, didn't do anything to showcase the A & J engagement because TB simply don't see their LS.  Jmo

Love the video. Glad he made some friends. Who is the guy sort of behind Brooks on our right?

[happygolucky]

Pia, I think producers see much more than we do, beside after they film and gather all the footage, they pretty much can do and show us whatever they want. That means they probably downplayed a lot of "connection" with Josh and the question is why. Why such a broad display of Nick&Andi interaction, why so much attention on Nick and his interactions with guys, his past relationships, his views on love and partnership? And this just during the season, then at the end with MTA and LCD and ATFR bringing all down.
Beside the storyboard for Nick was probably very clearly defined already by the 2nd episode, with the choice to not send him on any date, then to give him 1on1 in 3 ep., to film the conversation between some guys (Andrew-Marcus) talking about Nick's skepticism and if he is showing himself completely or playing a game (Marcus thoughts), so on so on... schedule of the dates was already defined, that means they had clear picture for making him front-runner and the whole drama among guys was also planned in advance and installed during filming, not some post-show effect. But during all this time they knew very good where is Andi with her feelings and still they encouraged Nick to get flowers, to sneak out, to write a letter (that he may had come up with the idea himself, long before) ... Ok my brain just froze ... stopped working... can't continue, I'm crashing. Need sleep.
