I didn’t think those were Ed’s parents either…ha ha ha. And I’ve been wondering where Jillian’s family is too. Interesting.
Chris, love your new picture. A great shot.
Jilli had to light a fire on Reid’s butt. Reid was shocked and confessed his love for Jilli in the limo. He will come back otherwise like the train guy said, it will kill him. Jillian also called Reid her best friend. OMG, what a sad RC. It was so real for the two of them on the bench…too hard to watch again. Not lovin Ed or his parents..very strange..sorry, not buying Ed as sexy either. It’s all about Reid and Jillian.
Geez, another dull blog. Must we put up with this crap every week?
I will watch the MTA but I won’t watch the final show except they bring Reid back. I agree with some of you guys here that Ed looked terrible with his green short and new hair cut. I was heartbreaking when Reid gone, and still feel so sad right now. It’s definitely Jil’s lost.
I am going to hang out for hope still because of the previews saying the toughest one for Jill to let go comes back and proposes! Chris you stated that this was one of the toughest to-date for Jill. I just know that its not easy for us as fans to watch a love and then see them let it go. Its not about us though its about Jill and what makes her happy. I am still hanging on to the small piece of hope! Thank you for sharing, but can you at least give us some subtle clues ever? LOL
Reid -the next Bachelor???? Are you kidding me? I have no idea why do you like Reid. Of course, he can make you laugh and feel good, but nothing else. He has nothing to offer except fun and laugh. Life is real. It is not always be easy. He even though is not sure if he wants to propose to Jill. What kind of relationship is this???
I like Kiptyn, he is smart, stable guy. Ed? perfect match, but not interesting.
I don’t understand why (in the end) you have the audience detest the bachelor/bachelorette….Brad Womack, Deanna Pappas, Jason Mesnick and now Jillian Harris (people already don’t appreciate her and the season isn’t even over)…you had some really nice decent people in some of these bachelors/bachelorettes, it is shame you didn’t lift them up instead of bringing them down. About Wes Hayden, what you wrote in your blog is ridiculous. Yes, he said some inappropriate things, but you spliced and frankenbited him so much, that it should be illegal. You owe him an apology for what you have done. Mentioning his ex-girlfriend by name and allowing her to be harrassed all over the US – what level of abuse do you plan to do to people? Also, people tend to respect people when they aren’t baring all on national TV – you didn’t have to show Jillian like that with Ed, it was classless and tasteless…I am disappointed in the caliber of show that is put together. I began watching with Deanna,no more
What no mention of the uproar about the editing of Wes. I smell a lawsuit being filed by ABC. It will be most interesting if that happens.
Only saw Ed’s date. Ewwwwww…the suit and then cameras on what should have been a very private moment. No wonder Ed had “difficulties”. Desperation by ABC to get the viewing up. Ewwwww… Too much info.
Glad I didn’t bother to watch much more because the blog is boring enough. Sitting through that for 2 hours would have been intolerable.
So, if Jillian if falling in love for two guys, will she suddenly fall out of love with one of them in a day or so and accept a ring from the other? Now, that’s romance for ya, REAL romance, but hey, the losers all learn someting and become better people. They learn that you the chances of finding love in 2 weeks on an unreal show in front of cameras ain’t the real deal.
Chris – very funny blog… I find myself checking in here every week after watching the show…
Did Ed really fly in his parents – or did the show do that? He should not have taken credit if it was courtesy of ABC.
Two great guys (three actually!) at the end – some great choices this season. Although Jillian seems very hung up on a “proposal” and less interested in finding the right guy. Trista always seemed interested in her OWN feelings, not others – and Jillian seems the opposite – focused on how everyone feels about HER. She appears to be a little narcisistic … sweet, but very self-involved.
Love you and can’t wait for the next two weeks. Good luck with that new-fangled phone without a wire…
How sad for Reid. He is so heartbroken and crying on her shoulder and says “I don’t know what to say” and Jillian says .. “say goodbye”. That was real classy Jill..CLASSY!!!!
Although he seemed disapointed; Reid didn’t seem overly angry or upset in the limo…maybe he knows he’s coming back…who screws her over in the end…looks like someone reveals something….maybe Ed comes clean and tells he rit wasn’t about his job, but that he’s the one with the girlfriend….ouch!
I haven’t watched yet as I watch it on the computer the next night. However, I enjoy reading this blogs and some of the comments. Chris, I’ve added myself as a fan to your Facebook page. Bummed about Reid but not surprised. I liked him the most. Jillian is my favorite bachelorette as she is down to earth, sweet, and relatable. She seems like someone that could befriend anyone.
OMG…Jillian sent the wrong guy home. Out of all the guys from all the seasons…REID was the best to watch. He was so geniune and endearing. He’s dates w/Jillian was so real. I’m not looking forward to watching Ed act. He just says all the right things but he doesn’t mean it. I’m still holding on a string that REID does come back and Jillian does pick him as her F1. Wishfull thinking
So that’s what Jillian said to Reid….I wasn’t sure I heard it….say goodbye…….she’s something else.
Hello Chris. This is my first comment/response to your blog. I just had to respond when you commented about Jillian thinking she is out of Kyptyn’s league. That also bothered me every time she said it. {Come on Jillian! No more of that!} Also there was no need for the extra camera footage in Jillian and Ed’s room. Now that was inappropriate. SHEESH! Don’t they get any privacy? It really felt uncomfortable watching that. Do they have something against Ed? Anyway, great job with the blog Chris.
