Why I’m Okay With It
 

  I’m okay with the fact that Jake picked Vienna because they seem really happy.   I’m okay with it because she brings out a fun side of him that he doesn’t otherwise seem to have.   I’m okay with it because other than Gia, all his other options were completely crazypants.   I’m okay […]

The My TV Nominee Interview Series continues with another 2009 nominee. This time, I spoke with Best Male Reality Star Nominee Reid Rosenthal from The Bachelorette. My favourite bachelor of the season and an incredibly sweet person offscreen, Reid candidly answered all my questions about the show, the girl, the guys and how it really […]

Terrifying Reign of Blond Tyranny

After last night’s rose ceremony there remains only one brunette in the Bachelor mansion. Incidentally, she is the only bachelorette left who I can tolerate, I may even go so far as to say I like the girl (Gia) but overall, the pattern of crazy that seems to follow Jake around is pretty astounding.

Every Rose Has Its Thorn
 

Tonight our bachelorette ran off to Spain with the final four men. All week the previews showed Jillian finally learning the truth about Wes. This episode looked to be the one where Jillian finally makes the right decision and cans the biggest asshole in summer reality television (give it a few more weeks and I’m […]

That’s it! I’ve finally had enough with Jillian Harris (or, as E!online has dubbed her, “realitart”). The girl is absurd. First of all, I haven’t watched a season of The Bachelorette since Trista but are they all really so, how to put this nicely,… tarty? Jillian is as forthcoming with her physical affections as the […]
