Chris is--ok.
I am an equal opportunity snarkist.
Personally, I think it's a joke he is on this show. The guy could easily, if he really wanted to, meet a home grown gal on his own. I would bet that out of the 25 contestants that were picked, perhaps 2 will be in an age demographic and serious about moving to Iowa and being his wife. jmoaa
I am glad the format will have the ladies in the good ole heartland vs Europe. TPTB are keeping it more real. The part not real is the host of younger ladies that are models, actresses, beauty queens, fill in the blank wannabees to bring more publicity to their careers than the possibility of being a farmer's wife. jmoaa.

Let's face it, any of the people that go on these shows could find love on their own. Fortunately for us, they come or we would have nobody to make fun of. Chris is no different.

Great speculation RL! We will have keep that in mind.

We had a discussion during the previous season, about your choice of friends are a reflection of yourself. That's how I feel about JS. Already I'm forming an opinion of Whitney whom I don't know, and barely remember what she looks like. JS is probably one of the first ones on the top of the list of those that I do not care for.

Funny you should write this GA because when I first saw Whitney's photo and read a little bit about her background I thought that she seemed nice and would be one of the ones there seriously for Chris. Then I saw that she was friends with JS and I immediately became suspicious and started rethinking my original opinion. As of now, I am on the fence. I will have to see her on the show before I truly decide, but just the fact that she is friends with JS makes me question her judgement. She is probably a lovely person and who knows, she could truly be into Chris and used her friendship with JS to help get her on the show, but there is that little niggling doubt simply because of that friendship.
