The same could be said for Chris that season. Both Bryan and Peter seem to be divisive, whether by editing or personality. Roberto's edit was more if he was too perfect while Bryan's seems to be if he's sincere. I was very happy that Ali was able to let Chris go without him coming to the FRC so am hopeful the same happens this time. I doubt very much that he would have proposed either although I don't recall him being asked. It certainly wasn't made a big deal of like it is this season. All JMO.

Chris came out a few years ago and said that he wanted to leave and even wrote Ali a letter explaining why, but they wouldn't let him since Frank had just left. Ali never got the letter, but I think it's proof the breakup was completely mutual, as there was nothing romantic there, and he never would have proposed.

I agree that this season isn't really like Ali's, as both final two guys were very well-liked and there weren't major fan wars happening. I would probably compare it to Deanna's, where Jason was beloved and most people thought he would and should win because he seemed so genuine and loving versus Jesse, who most people hated partly because he was Jason's competition and partly because he was...Jesse. IMO.

I think its hard to compare as SM was not as big back then.  Its hard to know how the general viewing audience saw it or how their SM activities would have shaped opinions like it appears to have happened this year. All IMO

"When it gets down to the finale and the final two guys, the last breakup is the most heart-wrenching of all time,” an insider tells Us. "They couldn’t say goodbye, and even when they did there were so many tears from her. After she left, he collapsed and sobbed.”

I was just watching a clip the other day, Bryan has his feet up on a table where you can see the bottom of his shoe, and I noticed the lug sole on the bottom. I'm going to go back and try to find the clip, I think it's when he and Lee are talking on the sofa and Lee is saying I didn't come here to make friends.
