Dr Chris Strandburg - Bachelorette 11 - *Spoilers - Sleuthing* - Discussion

Seabear wrote:I think Chris did fine on GMA.  IMO, he did not come across as the lead for the bachelor.  He admitted he was laughing and crying during his exit scene.  Everyone there was laughing at his "overacting" and even questioned if it was for the cameras.  I will be surprised if he ends up as the next bachelor.  He seems like a good guy just not right for that "role."

I don't think so either. Last season GMA also had Ashley I. and Jade on after their eliminations and neither were ever in consideration. I like Chris and think it's best if he stays away. I can see them taking advantage of him and making him look like a fool. 

He would make an awesome lead!!!!!!!!

I think he would be a great Lead to watch just because he comes across really honest and down to earth. Imagine him surrounded by 25 women? Watching him navigate through the season will be tv gold.

Thanks for the video!! Awwwwwwwww, he is a sweet guy and one thing that I absolutely hated this season was you didn't get a chance to get to know more about the guys other then the F2.... Too darn bad!!!

On the plus side for Chris is he was very comfortable and smooth in front of the camera. He blended right in with ABC's GMA cast.

I thought so too, Kasha.  He was very comfortable and articulate on camera. Makes me wish they'd shown more of his dates during the season. Kaitlyn said that she wished we'd seen more of them also.

ETA: Just because he's a nice guy it doesn't make him naive. He's a smart guy imo.

Come on ABC network... give Cupcake Chris a better deal than lead for next bachelor.
Give him something on TV where he can talk about what his passion is -- teeth and taking care of them and tips, etc.
I'll tune in! :Nod:

I'd really love him to get it. He's got a perfect mix of humor, quick-mindedness, sweetness, cuteness and self assurred confidence. It think he's the best candidate for the job, IMO.

He was great on TV! Much more personality than wooden Travis Stork who landed a series after his stint on The Bachelor. Give us more Chris please!

Nutty, thanks for bringing the GMA video over.  Wow - who knew?!  I am so impressed.  He's a natural on camera and seems really self-aware.  I can't think of any Bachelor male lead who talks that well in interviews (except Jesse Palmer now that he's had years in front of the camera.)  Yeah, Travis still has a terrible delivery.

I would watch every minute of a Chris season, and I have skipped every Bachelor season since Brad 2.

The clip of GMA was great! Chris does seem like a good candidate for the next man of the hour and maybe they were trying him out in front of the cameras as it seems like they are having a hard time finding a great next a bachelor candidate at this point.

I think he may well be headed in the footsteps of Travis Stork or Chris Lambton. If so, good for him. He is an easy presence with a dry but silly sense of humor.
