Lauren likes TV: Jillian chugs along to 5

All aboard! The Bachelorette hit the tracks last night and made me want to punch a ticket for a ride. That was certainly the coolest set of dates put together “in Bachelorette history.” The breathtaking views, the first-class service, the private train cars… funny how the NYC subway looks nothing like that, especially when you’re the last one to squeeze on and the only view you have is of some woman from Queens’ hairy armpit (no offense Michael).

Robby’s one-on-one came to a screeching halt when she realized that he was truly a 25-year-old bartender with no vocabulary. Robby… you’re cute, you’re attractive, but you need to get it together. You’re right… love doesn’t have an age or a job, but you do and they don’t really fit together. There’s nothing wrong with being a bartender, but professional bartenders eventually own a bar and make a life out of it. And if anything, you could’ve ridden the coattails of Jillian, the restaurant designer! You weren’t smart enough to think of that, so the train left without you.

Wes is a user. And he may be more than using just Jillian. He might be a meth user. With his beady eyes, obsessive behavior and diarrhea of the mouth, I’m almost certain he’s a meth addict. Another reason for Jillian to leave him out in the cold. I guess there’s no such thing as bad press, but I’d rather never hear music again than listen to his album.

Tanner is just f*cking weird. Does he really wear those undies? Because I know someone who would appreciate them and his name is Matt. I can’t believe we had to put up with him for this long.

Reid, you poor Jew. Bad news… it won’t be Christmas morning with Jillian every day for you. I’m pulling for you, but you’re too nerdy and neurotic. Scared of fondue? Did you not want to mix meat with cheese? Despite the rose, you’ve got one more week. Maybe your family will win her over for you.

“Gosh Jillian, I like you a lot.” Aww shucks. Jake has clearly heard but never listened to the phrase “nice guys finish last.” He’s good looking, charming, and is a catch. Which means he never had a chance at winning Jillian’s heart. I can not wait until next week when he “mans” up and returns, with his pilot wings and all, to tell on Wes.

Top suitors… Kiptyn, Jesse (though he’s become a bit pompous, no?), and Wes (until Jake tells her what a tool he is because she clearly can’t see it for herself).

  1. Not that I know anything about picking the right guy (I hardly know a thing about picking the right girl), but I do hope she chooses Kiptyn – he appears to be the only normal one of the bunch! Agree – Jesse very arrogant (build your own winery, ok; inherit the family business, just shut up and be grateful for a birth privilege!)….Wes is a sleaze – do you really think Jilian is clueless or is she just playing along for the sake of good TV and ratings??? Jake – yes handsome, but too pollyanna for me…see ya! No Michael comment?? I think he is adorable – would love him as a buddy…but a husband?? He has adult ADD (something I can relate to) – if I were her, all I would think about are the children – OMG – she would have a house full of nervous folks that fidget and bounce around – fine for a 5-hour party; too much for a lifetime…

  2. I dunno- I’m pulling for the Jewish guy- who cares if he is a little nuts- he is adorable. I also like Michael, who is actually only 2 years younger, but I don’t know if they really relate all that well. Jesse- no- boo- no sparks. Kiptyn (worst name ever) just doesn’t seem that into her to me. Wes is a slime ball, not very bright, and not that cute anyway. I don’t think you could be a meth user & not have the crew know about it- it’s a huge crew. But there is sometimes A LOT of pot smoking on film sets so- hmmm… maybe TV crews too? I think Jake coming back is stupid. He seems like a “nice” guy, but in that creepy Tom Cruise kind of way. Everyone says Tom is the nicest guy too, but I wouldn’t leave him alone in a room with my son. I think Jillian’s options here are sparse, and that she is not very perceptive at all, so good luck to her.
    Anyone watch the Jon & Kate plus 8 bombshell show last night? You had to know what was coming, but I cried anyway. And I’m not even a regular watcher of the show.

  3. First of all, IS SHE THAT DUMB that she cant see through Wes. And all those guys need to grow a set and tell her that Wes is a tool; if they care for her as much as they say they do they would save her from that slime ball. Jake, are you kidding me, now is when you decide to be a “real man”. A little to late buddy. I dont know, I actually like Jesse and Carmel is GORG!!! I would live there in a sec…Kiptyn seems a little quiet for me but she is SO into him. Oh, and the best part of the entire episode was the previews for next week. IT LOOKS AWESOME. Poor guy cant get it up…I wonder who it is!!

  4. Ok, just finished watching it a second ago. WOW! EVERYONE! Even the host tried to warn Jillian about Wes, she is soo blind! I was just waiting for either Tanner or Jake to whisper in her ear, IT”S WES! RUN!! But they didn’t! I am so happy Jake is coming back to tell her, SLAP some sense into Jillian Jake! Ok, I did say I liked Tanner but like I predicted, he was’t opening up about himself and too busy talking about the other guys, so BYE BYE!

    So I wonder who is the guy who couldn’t perform, it looked like Wes.

    Anyhow, can’t wait till next week, and yes I agree with Lauren…
    KIPTYN??? JESSE?? ……Who would it be? I put a hundred on Kiptyn, Uhh look at the way they KISS! They have the hottest kiss together or is it just me seeing that?? Crazy chemistry!
