Bachelorette Canada - Season 1 - Jasmine Lorimer - Episode Discussion - *Sleuthing - Spoilers* #2

I now regret not seeing the first episode. I was in the process of moving and totally forget. What a shame.

They've already shown quite a few shots of Mikhel supposedly in the F2.  Hypothetically if the s/cap above is him why blur it so magnificently  

Beautiful sunset tho

Sometimes they don't want to make it too obvious and Mikhel is too easy to tell apart from the other guys.

I do think that KW is the more likely f1 right now but would never write Mikhel off given their chemistry and the way she looks at him. He has told her about his family and it could be they've had deep conversations we haven't seen. Right now his edit seems to be he's afraid of being rejected so they want us to see it as more one sided but why? If he's the f2 wouldn't they want us to see him be confident? Right now seeing Mikhel being rejected wouldn't be a surprise but being chosen would be.

Whether it's Mike or Kevin W who will be f3 will be known very soon. It makes things so much more interesting for me having a little doubt in who will be f1 at the end.

IMO, the "heat/chemistry" edits usually are F2 so to me it's between Mike and Kevin. IMO, it will be Mike.

Honestly Mike isn't even really in the running in my mind. From what I see, the 'competition' is really between Kevin W and Mikhel, it doesn't matter what the order of F3 is, the F1 is one of those 2. All JMO.

[You must be registered and logged in to see this link.] yes I did say it could have been done at the HTD ITM we will see.  

I must say this sleuthing and active discussion is really enjoyable, because we do not know the end given to us by YKW is just wonderful.  Now if only the next show could be so again, but........

Also what is fact is that the F1 not only had a preview video but also spoke to the lead during the premiere episode. This season, Mike is the only one to of done that.

This is a new show so we don't know what's usual yet. They have reasons for what they do imo. They may have wanted to highlight both Mikhel and Mike because they would be potential Bachelors and they didn't want two firefighters getting an intro leaving KW out. Mike was the first impression rose so they had to show that and it may fit his edit that he was an early frontrunner. I don't know why they didn't show Mikhel's talk with Jasmine but we did see them meet so don't think it matters.

I've never been one who believes in things like the preview videos, lineups in RCs, order of roses given, etc. Just when you think you can count on something, they change it. Editing is done much later and there may be lots of reasons why they do what they do depending on what they want to show for each guy imo. It's pretty clear to me that they can pretty much go any direction they want because there are hours of film for almost everything they do. It keeps us guessing at least. They've done their job when all 3 guys have arguments on why they could be f1.

I agree [You must be registered and logged in to see this link.]

The show is edited to tell a specific story and we all know the edit is done when the show is rapped. Every single ITM, VO, etc. during and after taping are plugged in to suit the story.

The M&G lineup I'm clueless about because it's a snap but what story does it tell other than first impressions and standing positions to mean what.
The limo exits are manipulated. Some had said that the RC is manipulated at times, I could be wrong on that but who knows.

The producers/directors knows the ins and outs of the Bachelor shows. It's a storyboard so there are going to be patterns but patterns that's so obvious?

This is why I was only comparing Bach Can to Bette Can since they are the exact same producers. IMO, therefore there is a pattern when it comes to them. Because of that, and other reasons like the media stuff afterwards, ho hidden yet not hidden is Mike. IMO, both Mikhel and KW right now look too in our faces, therefore there is extreme doubt on my part that either of those guys would be F1. I think we will see a major drop off for KW at hometowns and a brought forward storyline for Mike.

[You must be registered and logged in to see this link.] I don't think you can use Bachelor Canada until it's shown to be a match in editing. Bachelor/Bachelorette U.S. are not edited the same imo and they also have the same producers as far as I know.
