I would keep an eye on him for producers possible next pick for bachelor. Just a feeling I get after this weeks episode.

There’s something about John, in the best of ways that makes him so appealing. He cares what the women think and is so respectful . Flavored with his smarts and iced with his cooking skiltz, he’s special !

I had the same feeling.

In my mind it will depend on what his relationship with Olivia is and if it is going anywhere.

I really like John but I’m not so sure about him as lead. He might be a little too cerebral for this show. I would like to see him find someone special, though. I’ll be interested to see him with Olivia. I don’t mind Caroline but she really came across as scattered and nervous on the episode. I don’t see her with John at all. Animal lover or not, that was rude to not pay attention to him when he was talking. 

Annaliese is coming across as so needy and it’s not a good look. No redemption for her. Jordan does entertain me and he really seems gaga over Jenna. Jenna, I’m not so sure about. 

I enjoyed having a Tia & Colton lite episode. Becca’s talk with him seemed to help him gain closure. I disagree that she should have been more comforting. It seemed exactly what he needed. Chris continues to live down to my impression of him from Becca’s show. Maybe he and Krystal will be a good match but I don’t really care. 

I still like Joe & Kendall but could see her with John. They’re both quirky & nerdy. Kevin & Astrid seem like a good match so far. I like Eric and wish they’d show more of him. The guys have the roses this time so it appears that a few women will go home. I was surprised that two women came and no guy. 

Overall this was a better episode to me than the Colton/Tia story from Monday. I think that Colton may still be in the mix for Bachelor but I’m not sure that his BIP stay has helped.

They usually bring in more of the gender opposite of who gives out the roses... that's why no guys. Next time it will be guys entering since the women will be handing out the roses.

If I counted right, there are 12 women and 9 men so 3 women are going home. I am predicting (partially on IG activity that I was tracking at the time) that 2 of them are Bibi and Caroline. From spoilers these are safe: Tia, Kendall, Krystal, Annaliese, Astrid, Jenna. I'm guessing that Chelsea due to lack of IG activity during most of filming is also safe. That leaves these 3... one of which will be the other one that leaves: Jubilee, Angela, Nysha.

... And him being on the TV screen gets Tia and Colton off of it.[/quote]

What's up with John and this Olivia person , Olivia who? Does this mean he didn't leave paradise with anyone and is seeing someone in San Fran? That's where he's from isn't it? TIA

According to RS he has been quietly dating Olivia Goethals (Arie’s season), and at the end of the FRC they had choices to either break up, go back home separately or get an overnight date and John & Olivia chose the overnight date. They have been seen around with Joe on IG.

I like him as a Bach candidate however if he found a great match

Correction: Olivia is from Ben Higgins’ season, not Arie’s.

I am enjoying this BIP season. My favourite men are John, Kevin, Jordan, and Colton (I think he is a sweetheart, and love how caring he is with his family, specially his mom “momma”) I would love him as the Bachelor tbh! I am not to keen on Joe, do not find the appeal. I did not like Jordan at all during his stay on Becca’s season, but after the Men Tell All, I started to find him really nice, sincere, and so funny! Hope he and Jenna make it work!
The girls, I love Bibbi! She is the narrator of this season, and the mama bear, love the advise she gives to the guys and girls, and how straight to the point she is! I thought Wills would be a good match for her, and I was sad to see him go! Chelsie is my girl! Love everything about her, from looks to smarts. Kendall is also adorable! I never liked Tia during Arie’s season, and like her even less now. The fact that she is best friend’s with Raven says it all to me. Pair of hypocrits and instigators IMO! Adam is too good for Raven, also IMO.
I do not know about anyone here, but I thought that Krystal was very nice and very respectful of Kenny when she explained how her feelings were not the same, she really impressed me! I am liking her on BIP, too bad she is into Chris (Whom I do not dislike completely, but hate a lot of his “ways” - hope he is a better man outside of the franchise bubble). I missed the part where Kevin talks with his mouth full!!! Oh no! But I am giving him a pass, since he is such a real man on so many levels, plus I’d take that rather than how that other guy are his pizza with all the noises, ! Astrid is quiet, and very pretty. If she and Kevin are dating, I hope it works out. But I think Kevin should find himself a Canadian beauty and fall in love without any “long distance” complications! (With Vanessa? I’d ship that!)
I agree with you @northernviewer regarding Colton!
