The Golden Bachelorette - Joan Vassos - Episodes - *Sleuthing Spoilers*

Jonathan...looking as dapper as ever...is the first guy brought up on stage. There are some tears from him. I wonder if he is up for the next Golden Bachelor. He shares a lovely note that Mark left for him. Everyone is tearing up.

Mark is up next. The recap of his journey is so sweet and tearful. Another good setup for next season. Joey is there for support.

Charles is next. He has dyed his hair dark. Don't change Charles. He thanks his daughter for encouraging him to apply to be on the show. His daughter says he has so much more confidence now. Now a clear set up...some woman from the audience says he should be the next Golden bachelor and another lady says her mom is single.

Loving this MTA!! I have laughed out loud throughout. These guys are gems and their connections to eac( other are heartwarming..

Will Jordan not get a hot seat??

And bummed that Gary didn’t get much air time!

Pascal leads the guys with self care...facials, meditation. They look like they had so much fun.

Captain Kim and his song The Mansion Men is done by a choir. Hilarious!

Pascal recap and his son appreciated how vulnerable he saw his dad.

Finally Joan...at the 1:15 mark in the show. Seriously, she looks like she will fall out of her dress.

She wants to exchange a phone numbers with Charles because she never met anyone with such a pure heart.

Jonathan thanks her because due to the show he has met someone and is very happy. Well, I guess he will not be our next Golden Bachelor.

Pascal and Joan share their good wishes. She wants to have a friendship with them all.

Nobody was on the hot seat with her. Honestly, she seems superfluous.

Bloopers were cute, but the rest of the show was better.

Preview of the final. Nothing with Guy. Chock doesn't want to propose if she hasn't told him she loves him. Unlovable, luckiest woman...blah, blah, blah...but she says she is happy.

And one more time for Captain Kim's shanty from all the guys.

The best MTA. Very feel good.

@luvstx I seriously could watch these guys all night. ABC execs...Golden Boys...would be gold!

No Jordan at all really.

Perfectly put Sprite. Joan seemed superfluous.

Clue: she cried happy tears.

Honestly I won’t be surprised if it’s Guy.

This was my favorite MTA ever. No drama but just lovable guys. They all seem really close!

Mark seemed more comfortable in the hot seat. He seems to have more confidence. It was nice seeing his kids (other than Kelsey) and later Joey.

Charles is so sweet but I wish he didn't dye his hair. I loved seeing his daughter get emotional watching him. He really has come a long way.

Nice that Jonathan has found someone. He looked great!

Pascal was good as he always is. Nice to hear what his son had to say about him.

I was hoping for some Jordan. He seemed to be the only one not even talked to. He probably was during taping but they cut it. I'd have given up the singing of the song by the choir.

There was no drama so Joan didn't need a hot seat although I thought she might with Pascal. I love her FRC dress! She looks great!

I just watched a little bit of the MTA due to being worn out from work -- but I enjoyed seeing the men outside of the "bubble." Their friendship really has made this series.

BEST MTA EVER! Didn't miss any drama and loved the camaraderie and friendship among the men. How cool was it to bring their children? Equally proud dads and kids.

A few comments: Charles - loved your salt and pepper hair. Having it dark looks like you're trying too hard. But I'll give you a pass because you are a real gem!

Mark - such a fine man. What he did for Jonathan was pure love.

Pascal - now that he's been vulnerable, he'll meet someone as a partner. And his son is so handsome!

Kim - kind of dismissed on the show but what a redempion to have the LA Gay Men's Chorus sing his shanty. He is musically talented!

Joan - wether it was your choice or the producers, it was a bad look. You look as if you're trying to be relevant and sexy. Sexy is confidence and if you'd chosen something more modest, it would have spoken volumes about how confident you are to appear as yourself, rather than trying to appear sexy.

This was the best tell all show hands down. And boy did I need something to cheer me up.

I was kind of surprised at Joan's dress. She usually is very well put together, but this was a disaster waiting to happen.

Just so lovely though to see a group of guys who genuinely liked each other, had lots of fun and "brought it".

I finally had a chance to watch the MTA. What an amazing, lovely group of guys. Their friendships and general character were just above and beyond. Such a treat.

Joan's dress at the MTA was a little "out there", no pun intended, but her FRC dress is just beautiful.

Finally a MTA that I did not skip any parts or fast forward !!!! It says something about having matured in life. Oh if we would know at 20 what we know at 60! My choice for the next golden Bachelor would be Guy or Pascal!

So does it look like MTF, LCDs, FRC AND ATFR are all going to happen live within a 90 minute time frame???

Maybe it goes like this:

First 30 minutes: Chat with Nancy about not being 'ready', MTFamily with Chock, Break Up with Guy
Second 30 minutes: LCD with Chock, footage of her having doubts, FRC
Third 30 minutes: Hot seat with Guy and Happy Couple with Chock

Too quick!
