Serena P's one on one date seemed like a waste of time. I don't know why Matt gave it and the rose to her because I don't see a connection at all. Pieper would have made more sense, imo.

The GD was strange because we didn't see the day portion. Isn't that at least twice this season? I felt for Abigail but he would have given her a date if he wanted to. She's very sweet and I hope she finds a special guy at home. I thought for sure that Bri would get the GD rose after telling Matt she quit her job for him. I wasn't shocked by the after-date because it's been done on TB before but I felt bad for the others. I wasn't much of a Kit fan and think she left before she didn't get a rose.

Jessinia's date was a throw away for me. I like her well enough but really didn't like the way she treated Heather. Speaking of Heather, I didn't like the whole trying to come back but this whole mean girl thing has gotten so old.

Michelle's my gal this season and I'd love to see her as lead. I really like Bri also.

Bad move IMO. I could see if she was the F1. I've often wondered how the contestants navigate their post-Bachelor lives if they want to go back to the career they had previously. Remember Ali left Jake's season as she had to make a decision to quit her job at Facebook or continue on the show. She chose her career. I was surprised she decided to leave Facebook to become the Bachelorette a few months later. But it's all worked out for her.

In the latest TV show ratings, ABC’s The Bachelor this week drew 5.2 million total viewers and a 1.4 rating, holding steady in the demo to again dominate Monday in that measure — all amid the racism controversy that has led franchise frontman Chris Harrison to “step aside” for a stretch.

I cannot believe that any of these people quit their jobs to go on this stupid show...let alone a dream job. Your chances of "winning" are slim. If you actually do end up as F1, you might have to move to try to make the relationship work, but even then the odds are slim of it working out. Now, if your plan is to ditch your career and switch it up...see Rachel L and Andi...that is another matter. Unfortunately, that does seem to be the goal of many of these people...future Instagram shiller.
