Bachelor In Paradise - Season 5 - Episodes - *Sleuthing Spoilers*

Well, if the right woman comes in, Jordan will change.... NOT!

But I could see him entering into a mutually beneficial relationship with a woman who is also not there for the right reasons... Become a BN couple, get that jump in name recognition and then poof! the relationship dies.

I am wondering if David was put up to that talk by TPTB. From all indications post taping, David and Jordan are totally fine with each other and are even now friends.

Right now, I am enjoying Jordan. He knows his role and is playing it perfectly... And him being on the TV screen gets Tia and Colton off of it.

Smiled through that whole video! Something tells me Joe and Kendall are not done ...

I am curious about Joe & Kendall, when playing first impression game when it came to Kendall's name he didn't say anything just wadded up the paper slip. Maybe afraid to talk about her ????

It is the season of Tia and Colton so I wouldn't be surprised if a lot of that was about them!

They should have renamed this the Tia and Colton show.. I don't care for either one so it's gonna be a LONG season for me if I can even hang in there.

@LoveDovez I have a hard time believing that with a large group of single twenty-somethings, that tptb couldn't find any other interesting stories to tell us. Only Tia and Colton? Time for new producers?

ITA  I don't find either one of them interesting either by themselves or as a couple. I thought Colton was auditioning of a silent movie or something when it kept showing him so much and him not saying a word. Poor Tia needs to find her worth and stop being a doormat for Colton because he doesn't think his shoes needs cleaning.

Seems to be the general consensus across the internet that so far this season is a big fail. Even TV Guide has an article with the headline "Bachelor in Paradise: Please, No More Colton and Tia" Article

There are so many other people in this cast. I would rather see them interacting than the Tia/Colton crap.

@Amethyst Enjoyed your recap. I have to add that the tiny glimpse of Nick I saw reminded me that I liked him a lot in the beginning of Becca's season. IMHO, he has some good guy qualities but he's not being his best self (are any of us) when he's drinking a lot. I was totally expecting Bibi to give Wills the rose. Boo. I totally agree the Becca/Colton ending was so over-produced. I wonder if there really is an audience that enjoys this? Or are tptb simply entertaining themselves?

@northernviewer Hi, not being snarky, but can you tell me what is it about Colton that appeals to you? TIA

I think Tia was doing her best under the circumstances to put herself out there, whether it was successful or not. I attribute that to good coaching from her friends there. She also has Raven as an example -- Raven has found happiness with a guy who didn't seem like the likeliest bet for her at first.

@Amethyst
I thought Colton was very polite under the circumstances. Tia is a thirsty fool, IMO. How many ways can a man tell you he's just not that into you? Then, she had the nerve to keep challenging him. I really felt he should have been firmer with her. Don't go away mad, just go away. She's pathetic. JMO

I wondered on that too.

I have to give Tia a pass this episode, pressuring Colton wanting him to decide what he wanted or he was not getting her rose, she was being bombarded by everyone about how he should have acknowledged their relationship as soon as he came instead kepping his options open by talking to other girls before giving her the date.

Colton didn't have to take Tia on a date and kiss her if he really wasn't interested at all. He obviously wanted to keep her as an option and she wasn't into that. Good for her!
