The Bachelorette: Episode 1 --> It's Rated R

Well, it's that time again, Bachelorette fans~

Time for The Bachelorette to start again, many rose ceremonies, lots of tears in the limo and Chris Harrison saying his famous lines like "This is going to be the MOST dramatic season in Bachelorette history!" and "Ali, it's the final rose tonight." Man, I wish I could be a writer on the show. It would be so easy! All I would have to do is write phrases like "I'm wearing my heart on my sleeve" and "I feel a connection with you, Ali." Hire me, ABC!


You would think that after 14 seasons of The Bachelor, Chris Harrison would have aged. But nope, sweet and perdictable Chris Harrison looks the exact same! What's with that? He either has a great make-up artist or had a little work done, Hollywood style. Chris Harrison- you look exactly the same! How have you not aged? Even Jillian Harris and Ali looked different when they got their own show! Doesn't this photo of Chris look EXACTLY the same since season 1?

Now for The Bachelorette- Episode 1 Recap....

Wow. Drama, drama, drama. Ali has quit her job at Facebook and ready for love (of course). The beginning starts very Baywatch-like with Ali running through water looking like a sexy life guard. Watch out Pamela Anderson. You may have competition on Dancing with the Stars! Now we meet the Bachelor hopefuls, Jay the Lawyor who seems like a sweet guy; shirtless Craig from Toronto who seems like a bit of a player; cutie Kyle, the lonely hunter and bear-killer who needs a woman (he hangs around animals more than women though); Wrestler "Rated R" Justin is a little scary at first but could have potential as a grandma's boy (he gets lots of air time with his family which could mean something); Biker Philip from Chicago who lost his brother. Seems sweet; Weatherman Jonathan is pretty funny. His secret weapon is his
humor (according to him, not me). Looks a bit like Reid Rosenthal, which is a really good thing!; Divorcee Ty from Texas loves his doggie and wants a doggie mama; Cutie and math teacher Chris, lost his mom and seems very sweet (lots of air time..hmmm); Roberto, Tyler, Derrick, Steve, Frank don't get a lot of air time. That is usually pretty telling...

Now for the limo- Jake Pavelka bashing and "I'm already so in love with you already, Ali." (gag, gag). First boy out of the limo is Chris H (kisses, kisses. Good first meeting); next comes Jesse with a big smile; Chris I says hello followed by an awkward moment; Ty lays it on thick "you are so pretty;" Oh No, Frank don't hop out of the top of the limo. But she liked it!; Broken foot Justin gets the sympathy card (no hot tube for you!); Jay looks very formal during their no-so-friendly meeting; Chris N pops out a rose (Cheesy!); Kasey looks intense as he steps out of the limo and then shares way too much about his emotions during their 30 second meeting; fishing guy Kyle is a bit strange but sweet; My first impression is that Roberto is not her type, not sure why just an instinct; striped tie Craig is nice looking (but probably shouldn'' have insulted Vienna); John seems nervous but so cute; Tyler looks nervous; John C is very smiley and then fakes proposes to Ali - Well, he will sure get noticed with that crazy intro - (Ali should just say yes and end of show); here comes blue shirt Jonathon. Not sure Ali will like him; Craig R is pretty forward; Very good intro with Steve. cute little eye contact going on; Kirk makes Ali a rose out of his snotty tissue; I'm thinking she likes Tyler (although he messed up on the cowboy boots thing. Maybe he liked Jillian instead?); here comes Hunter - I kind of think he's going home (not wise to tell a girl you have to pee); Derick seems genuine and sweet; Phil is intense; Derrick "Shooter" has a quick intro; Jason climbed on the car and then did back flip. A little bit of a show off.

Onto the cocktail party----> Ali smoozes with the boys and seems to drink a lot of wine. Good girl Ali. Frank seems like an Ali Stalker (aka he likes her too much and will probably be crying in the limo soon). Too bad he looks so much like cutie Reid Rosenthal...Dude, Kirk, oh Kirk. Making a scrapbook for a girl is a little bit...gay....No offence. I hope it's not his childhood scrapbook. I don't want to see photos of his first dirty diaper. Kasey seems so sweet and seems like his voice is a bit strange. Does he have a hearing aid? Hunter makes some sweet music - does he remind anyone else of Wes (gulp!). I found Jason a bit mean, making fun of the other guys. Doesn't show a good character. Shooter, please don't tell a girl your gross story!!! That's not a good move to talk about your racing sperm count. Ali, if anything develops, watch your eyes! I'm liking Craig M -seems pretty real and normal and Roberto does the salsa. Maybe I'm wrong but she seems to like Roberto. I don't see the connection though. Chris I is so sweet and loved it when Ali touched his leg. That's a good sign. Craig R is little bit of a tattle tail- no one likes that, it's not fourth grade. The first impression rose goes to.....Roberto!! Well, I'm shocked. Didn't see that coming.

The right reasons box---> Each guy has to choose a guy who they want to send home. Hasn't this been done before in Jason Mesnick's episode? Remember everyone chose one person and then she stayed anyways? Does anyone else think that striped tie Craig looks like actor Dean, Tori Spelling's husband? So no one seems to like
Justin who received the most votes from the box.

My question is where is everyone's cell phone and Blackberrys? It's strange not to see guys checking their phones every second. Are phones forbidden on the bachelorette?

The guys who made it through the first rose ceremony are:
1. Roberto
2. Justin
3. Jesse
4. Ty
5. Craig R
6. Tyler B
7. Frank
8. Steve
9. Chris
10. Kirk
11. John C
12. Chris N
13. Chris H
14. Hunter
15. Craig M
16. Jonathon
17. Kasey

Until next week... Let the crying and the bad scripted dates begin!
