Bachelorette 14 - Potential Lead - *Sleuthing Spoilers*

@happygolucky I was thinking the same thing. Des/DeAnna the one they want wants to leave, or Ali, the F3, the one she wants, has a g/friend.

I've always thought TPTB take things viewers look at as strengths in a cast person and use them against that person when he/she is the lead.

Oh, I agree. They always use the strengths against them and I'm not saying her season wouldn't have the requisite angst, just that I think they hold off following one really dramatic season with another. Brad 1.0 then a couple between Jason. Jillian followed and had her share of embarrassment, but nothing like Jason. Then we had Jake and Vienna but that disaster was after the season and of their own making. Again another couple of seasons before the drama with Des. Now JPab did follow Des and Andi after him...but both their stuff happened at AFTR and basically of their own making. Then a couple of seasons before Kaitlyn...but that was more on her and her stupidity. Ben...saying two ILY's...pretty mild. And now again a few seasons and we have the douche bachelor Arie and his big drama. So I am sticking with a little down time before they hit us again with the upped drama.

She looks so much better and prettier with minimal makeup. She would be a pretty 'ette.

I agree. When you catch just the natural shots during the season, she's stunning. She's even attractive without makeup. She's like an Ivory Soap girl. That make up artist needs to be shot! Her lighting must have been on the outs!

I definitely still think Becca is going to be the Bette and am looking forward to her as a lead. Whatever shenanigans TPTB throw her way I'm sure she'll will be just fine like the past recent Bettes who are living their best lives. Go for it Becca and shine bright

IMO if they call someone other than Becca K, i think the audience will probably boo ABC and start chanting "BECCA,BECCA,BECCA"....well i know i would be if i was in the audience jmo

Jillian followed Jason. Becca actually reminds me a lot of Jillian in certain ways. Jillian didn't have it easy; she definitely had a lot of drama with Ed leaving, then all that tabloid drama with his two girls back home. And of course, the die hard Reid fans.

Maybe Becca gets with an Ed type. Someone the audience doesn't universally love; kinda shady. The Jillian story board.

Who knows...we don't really "know" Becca that well yet. At this point in time, we didn't understand Jill's weaknessess either, or really any lead. Its only once the show starts airing and we really get to see a more three dimensional view of this person, that we start to understand that individual's specific flaws and what weakness TPTB will exploit for drama and ratings.

I realize they have storyboards but it still depends on which person the lead wants. I don’t think they initially wanted Graham in DeAnna's season and Brooks in Des' to leave early. They made Graham come back so she could send him home. On the other hand, Brooks leaving ended up being perfect because RS got it wrong and said he came back. That was one of my favorite endings ever because he was wrong and Des was still happy.

I guess we’ll see with Becca (assuming she takes it).
