The Bachelorette - 01/29/03

Like we said last week, she wasted a pick on the guy with the pretty eyes and lost a chance to get to know Bob better. I hope it was worth it to see his rat-infested apartment.

Can someone post some spoilers? I don't watch it, but I like to keep in the loop. I know that she was meeting the parents tonight, but did anyone get booted?

I didn't pay very close attention, but Greg, the guy with the "pretty eyes" got booted. She said something about them "trying too hard." She went to all their homes and met the families. Then they each gave her a 30th birthday present before the rose ceremony. Ryan inked her a picture of a white tiger (her favorite), Charlie gave her a card about meeting her Prince and a little silver toad with a gold crown, and Russ gave her a framed picture of a sunset they saw together in his hometown. Greg "rapped" for her and gave her the lyrics to all the songs he had written for her. All the families were pretty much the same. Russ won points for having a Neice that adored him (and for being wealthy). I don't remember much else.

Greg's apt was terrible, you could not even get into it.
It looked like he had sublet it for the time he was not in NYC.

And an importer what the hell.

That killed it for him.


Charlie is my pick now to go all the way.. I think btw Russ and him the 2 cali guys.

Greg's apartment doomed him.

Charlie's mom was really grilling Trista, I wouldn't want her as my mom-in-law.

Russ's family's okay, but Russ still gives me the heebie-geebies.

Ryan's the dark horse, but Trista seems to really respond well to him.

Again, it's no surprise that the three guys who were picked to go on the one-on-one date with Trista by her friends were the three who made it to the final three.

The other 5 guys in that group of 8 got royally screwed over.

And Russ is a prick. Not only do I hope he doesn't make it, I hope he cries when she boots him.

I also haven't been watching the show but I saw in the preview for tonight's episode that one of the families made her cry. Whose family was it and what did they say? Or was that just the magic of editing?

I'm guessing Russ get the boot next week. And Trista will pick between Charlie and Ryan. I think she will pick Charlie over Ryan.

Anyone else get tired of the (paraphrased) "stick around and watch to see who gets his ego shattered" tagline for each commercial break?

That one patman, and the host dude coming up to Trista and letting her know there is only one rose left.

You don't say, well I never, I was sure there were 2, as there are 2 guys, wait, what's that you say, well I never, only 1 rose left.

Dude we freaking know there is only 1 rose left you dumbass.



All you russ haters, of which I was one, if you see him outside the realm of the show he is much more down to earth, he was on our local radio show last week, and sounded like he was totally normal.


I think Ryan is out next week, and it's between charlie and russ.
I think she is enjoying stringing Russ along, seeing as how he was so pushy at the outset.

Caught bits of pieces of this last night. I guess I shouldn't be surprised that she dumped the guy with the studio apt. Of course, the funny thing is if that apt is in Manhatten, he probably pays at least $1500 a month for it. I figure that is more than wherever that one guy from Scottsdale pays. The guy who lives in San Fran must make nice coin because that was a nice place. I did not see where the 4th guy lived.

Charlie's whole family was a bunch of freaks who try to hard to look smart, but I think Trista fell for it.

Trista looked like she was about to die when she saw Greg's appt.

I liked her comment about where do you sleep...."right her" in the living/family/dining/bedroom.... And what a nice pile if crap you have in the kitchen...

That was the beginning of the end for Greg, pretty eyes or not. Her skin was crawling..

OK. I watched this for the first time last night so I don't know anything about the previous shows, but why, in the name of all that is sacred, didn't Greg clean his apartment and get the crap out of it? I don't think she was as upset about the size as she was about the condition.

I know he said he had a friend staying there while he was gone, but he had at least a couple of days to get it clean and straight. Hire a cleaning crew or draft your family and store the junk with friends or family for a couple of days. The whole mouse conversation had my skin crawling and no way in h*ll would I have put my mouth on a glass from that kitchen.

I was supposed to watch and check out the guy from Vail, but it was somewhat interesting and I might have to try and catch the last of the episodes.

Heard some of Russ on the radio again this morning, and again he comes off way better than on the show.

I think it will be interesting to hear him after he final episode is on.

His apt was about 300 sq ft tops. enough room for a bed, and a sofa.

He could not get a glass out of the cupboard as there was crap all stacked up in the kitched which was real narrow
