How did Emily Maynard go on a hometown date with Chris Bukowski? He has done a complete nose dive in terms of image this season. He went from a humble, brave, ready to make-a-fool-of-himself-for-love guy to a womanizing, conniving, self centered a-hole. Watching Jamie sing his praises tonight only made it worse. I couldn’t help but watch the movie Bridesmaids, which was on after this show and I’m thinking the character played by Jon Hamm is eerily similar to Chris. Particularly where he kicks Kristen Wiig out of his car saying, “You’re no longer my number 3 girl” because she won’t hook up with him.
What I’m most disappointed about is that we’ll never get to see Blakeley and Jamie team up to bring Chris down together. That would be one amazing revenge twist. If only they could get over their differences and realize what a gamer Chris is – they’d forget their not friends and form one of the greatest alliances in Bachelor history. I wish Sarah could have kicked Chris a little harder in the face on Jamie’s behalf.
Still not sure what the heck is going on between Ed and Jaclyn. They had a very cool date to the ball field and we get the vibe that she’s really into him. Cheeseball kiss cam and fireworks aside, they did seem to enjoy themselves. I’m not sure this is more than a budding friendship but am hoping that with a remote love interest, Jaclyn may be just a smidge kinder. She actually read my recent post where I declared victory for declining the opportunity to interview her and reached out to me on Twitter. Check out www.twitter.com/OfficeStace to see our latest exchanges. Not sure how she found the blog, but guess that means our audience is growing! Yay for OfficeStace! I also told Tenley Molzahn via Twitter about my dream that her and Kiptyn broke-up. She reassured me that all was well with them and I told her about my campaign for Bachelor Pad 4: Couples Addition.
Sarah Newton still goes which ever way the wind blows. This week it was in Chris’s direction. Had to cover my eyes watching Jamie explain this move away by calling it strategic. Especially after he made out with her all night while insulting how much she talks. Could he be any more of a snake / disrespectful pig? Emily Maynard tried to defend him on Twitter by saying he wasn’t so bad, but she hasn’t seen any of this season yet. I wonder if her opinion will change once she sees him manipulate and play each woman repeatedly.
I don’t really get Kalon. He’s disloyal to everyone but Lindzi. What on earth does she see in this guy? Does Lindzi have any opinions or is she another Sarah? It’s hard to believe that Kalon is really interested in anyone other than himself.
The good news is that Blakeley is safe and she’s out for some serious Chris ass-kicking. The take down is going to be fun to watch.
That’s really all there is worth writing about. Except that I really liked Rachel’s hair pulled back – she’s seriously beautiful. I don’t care that Dave is gone and it only seemed appropriate for the Super Fan to cry in the limo on the way out. Speaking of heading out, it’s time to put myself to bed and dream of other former Bachelor contestants. I have at least a year to strategize how The Husband and I can win Bachelor Pad 4: The Couples Edition as one of the Super Fan Couples. All tips are appreciated.

It was actually myself, who turned Jaclyn onto the blog! I tweeted her the site, and asked what she thought of it..She responded to me saying “you can’t please em all”..Find me at @rodmonium91

Good stuff. Thanks, Greg! After what is known to come out of her mouth, surprised she wasn’t harsher.

I would love to know what Jaime is thinking after last night when she kept saying how loyal chris was and he was actually saying things such as “Out with the old, in with the new” and “I don’t like her, but she’s hot.”
Stacey B says
I felt so bad for Jamie! She must have felt terrible watching the show.

Bachelor Pad is like a car crash..I just cannot seem to change the channel. Jamie needs to gain some self-confidence and some common sense because that girl is clueless…She THROWS herself at men…remember her and Ben!??…I cannot believe she fell for Chris and his BS..it was so sad to watch..and I eventually wanted to throw something at Blakely as she kept whining about her partner not being loyal..get over it and find someone else..
I don’t think Ed has any interest in Jaclyn…not that I blame him. When Ed has his hair pushed back with gel he looks really adorable!
I saw Emaily’s post defending Chris on Twitter..the catch is that she has not seen any episodes of Bachelor Pad yet..she will feel quite slly when she sees Chris’ actions!

Instead of showing BP#3 last night on abc, they decided to show a memorial for a local news caster that died yesterday. So after hours of reading twitter updates of the show I finally get to tune in and BAM its not on. I know its sad that she died, I feel for her family but why should my weekly night of trashy entertainment be interrupted? I wish an option would pop up on your t.v and ask you if you wanted to watch the original program or go on the new one. Needless to say I will wait foe it to show up on abc.com and in the meantime read your blog to fill me in!
I cant believe Jamie is gone!? I thought she would be around way longer. And who id Blakley teaming up with now? I have so many questions……..

I was also thinking how Emily Maynard must feel watching Chris on Bachelor pad! She really dodged a bullet there – although I never really believed Chris had much of a chance with her anyway. It’s amazing how different he is on this show! I don’t get Kalon either…and why doesn’t Lindzi ever get to talk? She was so perky and talkative on the Bachelor and now she just smiles?!!! I guess the producers just want us to focus on the other drama for now! I agree with you about Ed’s hair. Sometimes he shows up for the challenge with it all combed down and goofy looking and then he has it combed back at other times and looks totally hot! He has seemed to calm down a bit since the first couple of episodes where he was a drunken fool. Now he has become sweet and likeable again. So..those are my thoughts…Looking forward to more train wrecks next week!

Wow, what a season. You’ve said it all Stace.
Oh soooo glad that Chris’s plan didn’t work. He’s is a real d***. I’m looking forward to his demise! He has to face his family after they’ve seen him being a jerk on national television. It is shocking how shallow he has been.
Like last week, Jaclyn however smart she may be, hasn’t shown that goodness that is the intelligence of the *heart*. It can make physical features beautiful. One thing she does have though is dating savvy. Something Jamie desperately needs. Sweet and honest Jamie really needs to meet a regular guy in a regular way OR take acting lessons and get out of reality television. She went after the good looks, isolated herself and forgot to strategize.
Any more pix of Wally? 😉
Stacey B says
Wally comes home with us Saturday! Will have lots of pics to share then. Agree w/ you that Jamie needs some more dating savvy. She’s a pretty girl but has low self esteem.
