Yup! That's how I watched it yesterday. ABC is great about posting episodes online. CW, not so much.

Thanks, Lucy!

ITA about the CW.
I try to catch episodes of Smallville (featuring the afternoon delight known as Tom Welling) and CW.com always messes it up.

ITA?

Yeah, I stopped watching America's Next Top Model after getting an episode or 2 behind because it wasn't posted online. Sorry, off the tangent now!

ITA= In total agreement/I totally agree. :)

Ohhhhh wow!!! Fred AND Robert left? Ahhhh!

My thoughts for this week:

Robert: UGH. He really reminds me of a sleazy ex that I have (have I mentioned this before)? Everything about him this week reeked of nasty to me. First off, the popped collar and swaggering about. That was a pretty stupid trend in the first place, and it's like three years over now. Nasty. Nasty unbuttoned shirt. I do think there was something edited out in regards to his weird behavior at the BBQ, but it still sounds like he was a random a-hole even with some weird gossip going on. I loved his confidence at the 2-on-1 date and that he got shot down. LOL. He was always talking about sex and stuff and he couldn't even move in for the kiss smoothly. LOL. He sort of reminds me of the "Ladies' Man" from SNL.

Fred: What a big teddy bear! I am kinda crushed that she cut him. I think that Fred and Richard would have been my top two if I were her!

Graham: This is making me laugh because he's sooooo not into her. He does something to piss her off every week and then tries to make up for it at the rose ceremony party. She is so into him and it's really blatantly obvious that she wants to get into his pants. It reminds me of a girl in high school who's popular but maybe not quite popular enough, or maybe just a bit too naive, to date the REALLY popular guy.

Brian: I know that a lot of people were rooting for him but I never totally saw the attraction. He seemed well-spoken and carried himself well, but I was really turned off when he wore the "Home Wrecker" tee shirt to the BBQ. First off, message t-shirts are nasty on men. Second off, why something like that - I even think a few message shirts are cute or cheeky but that one's just sleazy. And WEARING IT TO THE BACHELORETTE? DUDE.

Sean: I don't know what it was, but he was looking cute to me for the first time this week. I know he got rid of the mullet last week, but for some reason he looked a lot better this week. I think it's the combination of the mullet removal and more screen time or something. But I was thinking he looked kind of hot at points. If still socially awkward and obsessed with his own masculinity (martial arts master, stock car racing, etc.). Also stupid that he thinks they have some kind of amazing connection just because she lived in Kentucky for a little while.

Twilley: I don't totally get why he's still around but he seems fun if pretty weird. I don't hate him as much as some people do. Looks like from the "coming next week" shots that his time might be up soon.

Jeremy: Is SO boring to me. I feel that he's fading to Deanna too. He is not very attractive and super-blah. yawn.

Jesse: I don't get him and Deanna. Not that he's a bad guy at all... but I don't get them together. I know she says he's not her type but he's convincing her, but I don't see them lasting long term. I also really hate his hair. I'm actually not totally against longer hair, but the style he wears was the one that was cool when I was a freshman and sophomore in high school (parted down the middle, longish)! It's hideous! Too bad he didn't decide to get it cut before Ron the barber left--it was a good choice for Sean. (And just noting that at least Sean's mullet is somewhat stylish these days in certain circles - when I was living in Europe last summer everyone had one.)

Jason: I know he's a fan favorite but something still seems *off* to me about him. I guess it's partially the fact that he's a single dad but he's sort of whoring himself out on TV and also whoring his son out to some extent. I guess the other side of that is that it might be better than regular dating and bringing different women around or something - just doing it all in one fell swoop. Anyway, I do feel that he and Deanna are right for each other and really clicking. After the interaction they had after the 2-on-1 date, I really feel that he will be the final guy standing.

Deanna: OMG. She turns me off so much. Granted, Robert WAS acting like a d-bag. The thing I don't think the guys realized was that her insane rant was really less about Robert and more about the fact that Graham had refused to kiss her the day before. (Yes, Robert had said he was reluctant to put himself out there because of rumors she already knew the final 3, but her rant was about people worrying about her kissing other guys, etc., etc., i.e., it was all about Graham.) That performance was ultra-childist and selfish and almost unbelievable. How old is this woman? 26? I'm 25 and while I flip out sometimes it's by myself, or with my girlfriends or something like that. She really seems to lack maturity to me. I really feel she's just desperate to be married, but at the same time, she really seems to be basing her decisions on the show on sexual attraction. I really don't like this woman but at least she's cut away the more decent guys already.

Yes, it was the MOST DRAMATIC DATE EVER!

I truly should have kept a log of the "MOST __________ EVENT EVER!"s from this season. I know there was at least one already.

Phrases I could live without ever hearing again:
"I know how ya'll feel..."
"I've been there..."
"I'm here for you..."
"...put yourself out there..."

Ugh. Shut up. Shut up. Shut up.

I was thinking that Brian's t-shirt was rather cheeky. He gives me a construction worker vibe and it would be funny if that's where "Home Wrecker" comes from. Heh. I amuse easily. :o And yes, I admit I was hot for teacher. :o:o:o

Robert was sleazy and greasy. Eww. And how long was that exit scene in the limo? Geez. I thought he would never stop mumbling.

Fred, my boy I think you dodged a bullet. Deanna is kind of nuts.

Okay, I am lost on the appeal of Graham. She called him "smoking hot." :confused: Really? :confused:

Richard was in the local paper this morning. They've decided that they can find someone local for him. You can find the article and where to send your info to www.pressconnects.com Does every 'reject' have to go through this?

Yeah, I totally think Graham isn't that into Deanna.

You know Deanna, you don't HAVE to kiss the guys. I know it's fun and all, but don't whine about it if you're going to keep doing it.

I love that the "outhouse" is like a sorority house with more (maybe?) beer and less shirts and LOTS of drama.

As much as I agree, I understand why she thinks he's so hot. He looks all the other "hot" southern guys down here and you gotta remember, she's from Georgia where he would be considered hot. Not my kinda hot though, but yeah.

I totally agree, those were MY top two. Nice, caring, sweet, genuine guys. Too bad Deanna is WAY blind sometimes... :rolleyes: No, let's go for the "smokin hot" (not really) guy who is an asshole to me. Ooh, yeah, sexy.

I actually DO think that Graham is pretty smokin' hot but he seems to be really immature so I'm not into him.

A lot of people thought Brian was hot and I really didn't. I guess this is shallow, but I think it had a lot to do with the graying hair.

I tried to figure his hair color out and I actually think it was frosted/ashe blonde, not actually gray. But I agree, his hair color had a lot to do with my opinion of his hotness. I actually thought, hey you know, if he had dark brown hair he'd actually be pretty cute. I mean, his body was super hot in that pool scene before the rose ceremony. And I'm so glad he didn't cry in the limo like that chef guy did. Ugh.

You might be right about the hair color. He obviously didn't look old (I think the captions said he was 31), but sometimes people do start going gray unnaturally young... Anyway, for whatever reason, it wasn't doing it for me.

I'm a bit skeptical of next week's Deanna Tells All. I prefer the regular episodes. :P

Is home town dates next or is there one more round before that?
