The Bachelor 20 - Ben Higgins - F1 to F4 - *Sleuthing - Spoilers*

I feel like they still manage to fill these roles every season, whether the girls are younger or older. It's very much predictable.

I honestly do not enjoy the show all that much anymore and skip episodes at times and do a minimal of sleuthing these past seasons. It happens. The show IMO is very stale and predictable. But the forum--well, imo, that is still interesting.

And your hilarious snark definitely keeps the forum fun and interesting

I just find the Bachelor show so incredibly boring. The guy leads are so vanilla with absolutely no sex appeal and they all kind of blend together for me. The lady leads stand out much more to me and I can at least pick out one of their guys to be my new TV crush for the summer.

ITA with all of this

You can say that again. My brain was about to melt last night from every other word being "like". Instead of Spanish lessons they could all use some English ones.

What's sad is that that is literally how Amanda - and most of the girls sound. You're not over exaggerating the 'likes' at all!

I'm surprised at how often Ben says like. He's a lot better when giving interviews.

Also, his "women" sounds a lot like "woman." Is this just an accent?

And Lauren makes a very sharp "s" sound when she speaks. I can't help but notice it.

I'm sorry to say I'm starting to nitpick on things

Yes x 1 million. Hellllooo, RyGuy!

Watching last night, in particular Jubilee's list of women who have Ben's attention, i.e., Lauren B., JoJo, Becca, I do think that those three girls were his original F3, perhaps. Amanda and Caila were duking it out to get into top four. I'll be interested to see the ways and reasons that things fall apart for Becca.

IA that it's better with older women but I remember Byron's season and they were pretty bad given their 10 years or so on the current cast.

I think it's mostly Bachelor fatigue. Bachelorette's only better because of the guys and it's even getting old. I watch but no longer sleuth. I also get over couples almost immediately after the season ends.

I do like that we're actually seeing a potential love story with Lauren B this season. There may be some heat with Jojo and maybe Caila to try to muddy the waters, but we saw some with LB this week also. I see almost nothing with Becca or Amanda so far.

Me too, but then what is the Limo in the preview... and the saying goodbye to a woman who doesnt deserve it in same suit/location as FRC... I need to go home and rewatch preview
