The Craziness of The Bachelor


If anyone has been watching TV recently, then you probably know about the new season of The Bachelor featuring the small town farmer Chris Soules. They left the season premiere with an ultimate cliffhanger. Will Kimberly be allowed to return to the show? I was stunned when she approached Chris and told him that she wants another chance, then I was even more baffled when Chris let her back on the show! How is that at all fair to the other girls who actually did receive roses? In my opinion, her not talking to Chris all night is her own fault. If she wanted to talk to him she could have, and she had all night to do it. It’s not as though Chris was hiding from her.

                So that’s how the episode kicked off for me, and then if proceeded with the group date. If you watched you saw the two girls, Jillian and Megan decide to break into Chris’s house and go crazy. Once again I couldn’t believe it! Chris had invited them on a pool party date and there they were breaking into his house and going through his stuff. But, to no avail the girls planned to do their little activity everyday. Of course the show must go on, so after the pool party they were all brought downtown where Chris presented them with the opportunity to do tractor races down the streets of Downtown LA. Does that sound like fun or what?

                After the winner was revealed and she and Chris had a little alone time, and when Chris came back he revealed that the rest of the night would be spent as a one on one date with the lovely Mackenzie! Mackenzie spent quite a lot of time talking about aliens and big noses which if you ask me is a liiitttlleee weird for a first date, and I guess Chris thought so as well. Finally, she mentioned her having a child and that was something that Chris liked. The rest of the date went of smoothly with lots of lip locking.

                Okay what happened next really irritated me. Mackenzie got back to the house and would not stop telling the girls how many times she kissed Chris throughout the night. Like she would not stop. I understand if you feel the need to talk about it once or twice but there comes a time where no one wants to hear it anymore, and I think the other girls in the house would know what I’m talking about. Anyways, the date card went to Megan who took an amazing helicopter ride over the Grand Canyon that ended with Chris seeing a future with her.

                Later there is yet another date card handed out with another group date that turns into them playing paintball against a bunch of zombies (kinda weird right?) Everyone seemed to enjoy themselves though and Chris was able to see the real side of some of the girls in the group. (cough cough Britt). The night ended with the rose ceremony where Chris had to send home a total of 4 girls including drunken Jordan and Tara as well as Alissa and Kimberly who’s second chance wasn’t so good I guess.
