I found out that Ericka is an Alpha Chi Omega. Graduated from URI in 2005. Some younger chapter members of mine remember her. I haven't watched the episode yet, but I did hear she got a rose.

Ruh roh! Wasn't Erica the runner-up for the girls' "most hated" votes?

Oh - I had no idea of the cost of living in that area. I see what you mean now.

And to your second comment, right on! So many seemingly normal people just become unhinged on this show.

That's the only reason to watch it ;)

Anyone watch Ellen? She thinks she caught him almost saying that yes he was engaged to DeAnna (I dont know who any of these people are, but I thought I would share). She replayed it and I think he was about to say yes he was......

Ooh...JUICY!

I'm watching it now....others before me have said to pay attention around the 5:15 mark.

I'm going to take a guess right now that he picks either Jillian or Melissa.

My money is on Melissa. I've read a few spoiler boards and also Melissa and DeAnna were basically separated at birth in terms of similarities, looks-wise.

yea a few of my coworkers were saying the same thing...

I'm so glad that he got rid of Nicki (or whatever that blond girl's name was that he took to Vegas)

I loooooooved that she got all pissed off and started cussing. I bet when he sees that he's going to be glad he didn't give her a rose ;)

This girl wanted to elope? Seriously?

Best season ever.

If I were to create a drinking game around this show, it would have to be whenever the word "amazing" is used.

Toned down makeup - Stephanie is WAY too good for this show. I hope some really nice man (or a good friend who will set up a nice man) watches this and sees that there is a lovely woman who is ready to fall in love again.

She seems so sweet and genuinely nice to the other women. She is ladylike and classy with Jason. And, she is lovely to watch with her daughter. I teared up too (with Jason) watching mother and daughter on the beach. Forget her clothes, makeup and hair, she got sandy and wet playing with her daughter. I don't care that she used too much botox. She is a nice lady.

I cannot believe he kept foul mouthed Meghan. It must have been at the producer's request - to keep the drama. The woman is trash. Even though Carrie was a mute, she seemed sweet and likeable...

This show is painful to watch. These women are all so desperate. That one girl that knows everthing about the guy is a total stalker. What is up with that plastic woman? They should do a spinoff and make her a character on X-Men and she would be called Plasteek.

Or whenever they say "ever".

"It's the most romantic proposal EVER."

"It's the most action packed season EVER."

"It's the most ______ EVER."

blah blah blah...you get my drift.

I am so loving this season - though it might have something to do with the fact that Jason is a local guy :)

I like Stephanie, she's super sweet, but they (whoever does the editing) portrays her as all about her child. Which is fine, I just don't hear her talk about anything else and it gets to be a bit much. I feel like Jason clicks more with other women. I like Jillian, Melissa, and Molly thus far.

And Megan needs to get the hell out. It's amazing to me that he can't tell she's a drama queen. And that she thinks she's not a drama queen.
