Chris,
My thoughts exactly. You can so clearly see what Ashley cannot see: some of these guys are out to lunch. If any guy came at me to hoist me over his shoulder, twirl me in my gown, kiss me with his slobbery mug, come anywhere near me wearing a mask or hand me a broken compass or “pink?” dental floss, they would be sent home immediately. Really? Dental floss is the best you can do? Come on. Would you do any of that on a first date?
Having said that, I kind of had to roll my eyes at the ballet tickets, too. Kind of pushy but I dont know. Now the nice touch? The ” I made my own wine” guy.
And I agree: Bentley: red flag guy. Did he say any of this stuff when you all vetted/ screened him? I fear that viewers are watching what amounts to abuse and disrepect that takes women years to get out of for their own sanity. It has become epidemic in our culture. Please vet these wackos. And for God’s sake: no masks.
Hi Chris – good to have you back on our TV screens this seasons.
2 things…Please tell the editors to leave the love story in the story !!!
I know drama sells for you guys but your hardcore fans watch to see Ashley fall in love. So please make a request to them to edit the show so that we can clearly see it. At the very least, let us see the stuff in the deleted scenes like we were shown last season on the Bachelor. Those were the best !!!
Also I would love to attend the MTA or the After the Final rose taping – how is this even possible ?
omg…wow, this show has gone to an all time low, how could they let her do that with Bently unknowingly and look so foolish while he validated himself…wow! I have been a loyal fan, but this brings it to a new low! I am so disappointed that the show didnt have more respect for the main person, is it always about drama and ratings, what about respect for each other. what have we become? Producers, staff, Chris H. you should all be ashamed that this is what you believe the show is about!
I really think Ashley has a problem and I will be glad when this season is over. Ever notice how she constantly rubs her teeth and the inside of her mouth with her tongue?? It drives me nuts!!
HI KRISTIN, CAN YOU PLEASE GET A MESSAGE TO CHRIS HARRISON ABOUT ASKING Ryan Park TO BE THE NEXT BACHELOR…..HE IS SUCH A SWEETHEART…
