THE BACHELOR - LONDON CALLING

[LucyKKG]

I was so mad that Amanda went home! Shayne is annoying and fake, and I can't figure Chelsea out. She wasn't memorable at all to me until there were so few people I HAD to remember her. She seems so wishy washy.

I'm glad Amanda got pissed at him for "dumping" her. You go, girl!

Ditto Ditto Ditto. I agree on all counts.

Glad to see Amanda got mad too. That meep thing was bizarre though.

Shayne really is beyond fake to me. The fact her dad even said it, despite her protests makes her seem even more fake to me.

Chelsea is just scared. That's what I think anyway. I'm definitely that way in relationships sometimes, so I can see where she's coming from.

I don't really like EITHER of the final two, but I def hope Chelsea "wins."

Ohhh I didn't think the meeps were THAT bad. Ok, weird, but not that bad.

I was so mad they had a talk-show style episode instead of the finale. Grrr!

Marshawna !
I think everybody has seen the "real" you and it's NOT pretty!


I think that Matt made his decision of who gets the final rose weeks ago, when he had that one-on-one date with Shayne. Shayne has received the first rose during the last three or four ceremonies. Matt and Shayne seem to really care for each another. Just because Shayne is an actress doesn't mean that she is not capable of loving Matt. Most of the women on this show are entertainers of some sort, i.e. Singers, Fashion designers, Children writers.

Chelsea rarely looks matt in the face when they are together. I don't know why he has kept her so long!

I didn't see love connection with Matt and Amanda or Noelle either or maybe I'm just partial to shayne.

I actually think Shayne is one of the more real girls. Like when she admitted that she was high maintenance - hilarious, but also very truthful. She also didn't get involved in all of the drama. She confronted Robin about Robin's behavior, but in a very kind way, and was concerned when Robin started crying. I think that despite her star status, Matt and her have a genuine connection. As far as her father's appearance, it seemed to me her father was just being an ass and setting her up. Her mother and sister seemed very sweet (oof, despite her mother's plastic surgery). I really got the sense that there are some "daddy issues" there and that Lorenzo just sold his daughter out in a very mean way.

I feel that Amanda was cut in order not to lead her on. Based on Matt's monologues from the previous episode, I do not think Chelsea will win. Basically the only good thing about their date was the fantasy suite and her slinky lingerie. The actual DATE part sucked. Whereas Shayne and he had a great time. I just don't feel that he will choose Chelsea. I feel like he may have liked Amanda more than Chelsea, but wanted to cut her away to prevent even deeper feelings from forming on her part.

In terms of "hand analysis" for the finale I also think it's Shayne. The girl in the finale who Matt proposes to is wearing light nail polish - most likely a French manicure. Chelsea has worn a dark nail polish throughout the show - I've noticed it because it's such an odd color, even black or navy blue. Of course they could have had her re-do her nails for the finale, but I just think it's Shayne for some reason.

The "Women Tell All" was one of the worst episodes of its kind, ever. BLAH. People at Television Without Pity are speculating that they didn't air the women's predictions about who would win because they all said Shayne.

If it's not Shayne, I am going to be very, very shocked.

And am I correct that the Bachelorette starts immediately after the Bachelor: London Calling wraps up?

At first I couldn't stand Shayne, but she grew on me. Once I got past her baby voice, I noticed that the stuff coming out of her mouth was way more real than what most women were saying. And she and Matt always seemed very at ease together.

I thought Matt's decision to bring Chelsea this far was bizarre because on a few episodes he remarked about how non-communicative she was and how things were awkward.

I couldn't help but feel kinda happy for Matt and Shayne tonight at the finale. They seemed genuinely happy and giddy.

Every time Shayne talks it sounds to me like she's reading a script.

Couldn't agree more. I liked her for about 2 episodes until that started to annoy me so much.
