The Bachelorette Desiree’s Episode-by-Episode Spoilers

Administrator — Thu, 16 May 2013 03:40:00 +0000

Episode 1 (airing May 27th): Los Angeles, CA (26 down to 19)

-The theme to this season is definitely “Cinderella” since Desiree came from nothing (something she constantly reminds us of), and getting an opportunity to do this is just like the Cinderella story. You know, except for the fact she’s not blonde, doesn’t have two bitchy step-sisters, and guys don’t turn into pumpkins this season. So yeah, exactly like the “Cinderella” story. Within the first minute, Desiree is already crying because of this opportunity she’s been given. I’m already nauseous. Remember, this is the same girl that was crying on stage within a minute of being announced as the next “Bachelorette” on the ATFR show. Oh boy.

-I said yesterday 9 guys had intro videos. Apparently I can’t count. It was 8: Will, Robert, Zak, Bryden, Nick R., Drew, Mike R., and Brandon. In Will’s is where he screams “I love this womaaaaaaaaaan!” that was shown in the promos. Of course that makes perfect sense he’s telling us he’s in love with … Continue reading →

“Reader Emails,” “Dr. Reality Steve,” and My Breakdown of the Bachelorette Guys’ Profiles

Administrator — Wed, 15 May 2013 15:35:37 +0000

Hey, it’s only been 3 weeks since I last wrote a word. Nothing wrong with that, is there? Well, apparently if you’re a die hard fan of this show it is considering how many venomous emails I’ve gotten asking me where I’ve been and if I’m gonna have any spoilers this season. Huh? Have you checked the site in the last two months? More on that later. Anyway, yes it’s great to be back and we’re almost there. Only 12 days away from the premiere. The “Bachelor” blooper show airs this Tuesday the 21st. I’ll probably have a column some time next week with my thoughts on it, then starting on the 27th, back to recaps on Tuesdays, and at least 2-3 columns a week. Working on a couple different things now that I’m trying to finalize before the season, but should be fun.

Now to get to the question I’ve been beaten over the head with for the last 3 weeks which is, “When are you posting your spoilers?” The answer: Tomorrow. I will … Continue reading →

“Reader Emails,” “Dr. Reality Steve,” Desiree’s Final Four, & Your Up-to-Date Information on What’s Happening

Administrator — Wed, 24 Apr 2013 15:32:34 +0000

Once again, a lot of stuff to get being it almost two weeks since my last column. No worries, once the season is up and running, we’ll be back to three columns a week. This column is filled with stuff I’ve been sitting on for over two weeks, but now that we’re down to the final four (well, three actually since the hometown date rose ceremony was last night), I figured I can share this now. Once ABC releases the headshots and bios of all the guys, I’ll then release your episode-by-episode spoilers since, as of right now, I have all your rose ceremony eliminations. There’s a few dates in Spain and Portugal I’m trying to nail down, but I do have which episode every guy left in. I’ll reveal a couple of those today, but then give the episode-by-episode breakdown once the bios are revealed so it’ll be a little easier to follow.

Lets get started with the ridiculous “Adam Scott is gonna be the next ‘Bachelor’” rumor that started not four seconds … Continue reading →

Bachelorette Desiree Update, Where Have They Been, Who Got the First Impression Rose, and “Burning Love” Season 3 is Here

Administrator — Fri, 12 Apr 2013 18:05:46 +0000

Been under the weather all week so apologies for the late post. Been a couple weeks since I’ve been on here so plenty of stuff to get caught up on. Some of which has definitely leaked out since I last posted because it was public knowledge based on social media, but I’ve got some date stuff that no one’s reported yet. However, before I get started on that, let me give a major shout out to the Chris4Life Colon Cancer Foundation for an outstanding event put on last Friday night at the SLS Hotel. Had a lot of fun there, got to interact with a lot of people, and was glad I could help donate to the cause. In all, they raised almost $60,000 for their efforts so a big congratulations to them. Glad I could be a part of it. It’s my second year in a row attending and look forward to next year’s.

I gotta say, Sean’s girls definitely surprised. Not so much in their attractiveness because all of them looked great, … Continue reading →

“Reader Emails,” “Dr. Reality Steve,” Desiree’s First “Scandal,” Info on the Group Date, and “Burning Love” Ends

Administrator — Thu, 28 Mar 2013 16:56:51 +0000

For the first time in a while, I have more show related news than actual “Reader Emails,” and “Dr. Reality Steve” emails to go over. Then again, this is the offseason, and frankly, there just aren’t a lot of questions people have right now. Which is perfectly fine by me. I could use this break to recharge the batteries before we start up again May 20th with Desiree’s premiere. But we’ve got two pages of info to get to including the lawsuit being over, some drama in Desiree’s season, Sean on DWTS, Michelle Money’s charity event next Friday night, details from Desiree’s group date yesterday, and of course my favorite part for those that may have missed last week – the ending of “Burning Love 2,” with a trailer for “Burning Down the House, which is their spin-off parody of “Bachelor Pad.” If there’s a funnier web show out there than this one, I’ve yet to see it. The Mark Orlando character is an all-timer. Kinda reminds me of Michael Scott from the “Office.” So … Continue reading →

“Reader Emails,” 3 More Confirmed Contestants, What Des’ Has Been Up To, and No More “Bachelor Pad”

Administrator — Thu, 21 Mar 2013 13:51:07 +0000

Today is the start of the best time of year for me personally as a sports fan. Sure, the Super Bowl is great. And yeah, I’ll watch the World Series, NBA Finals, and the BCS National Championship Game. But for my money, March Madness is the most exciting sport event for me. Always has been. I love it. Once this column is posted, I’m gonna grab an early lunch, then plop myself on the couch for the next 10 hours watching a sh*tload of basketball. And then wash, rinse, and repeat tomorrow. What can I say? Working from home definitely has its perks. Sure, if I get any info on Des’ date today, I’ll tweet it out, but my main focus will be on this tournament as I have my 5 brackets that I filled out sitting right next to me the whole time. Speaking of my tweets…

Man, a lot of stuff to get to before we even delve into the “Reader Emails,” (“Dr. Reality Steve” will return next week), if I’ve said it … Continue reading →

“Reader Emails,” “Dr. Reality Steve,” & More of Desiree’s Guys

Administrator — Thu, 14 Mar 2013 15:12:35 +0000

In Tuesday’s column I had mentioned that since guys were arriving in LA this past Monday, there’s no way filming was gonna start Sunday. They never keep them sequestered that long, so I figured filming was gonna start tomorrow night. Well, I’m hearing it’s being moved up another day and filming for Desiree’s season actually begins tonight at the mansion, which is pretty much on schedule with when filming has begun the last 5 seasons so no real change.

A lot of emails in the last couple weeks asking about Lindsay and what was the reasoning behind her not becoming the “Bachelorette.” I never heard the reason, but after her conference call with the media on Tuesday, where she was gushing about a new boyfriend, I’m guessing that played a role in her not getting it. Just a hunch. That was the first I’d heard of that. Had no idea, nor do I have a clue who this guy is. Since she didn’t name him, maybe her and Tierra can double date … Continue reading →

The Bachelor Sean Finale Recap Including Your First Look at Some of Desiree’s Guys (EXCLUSIVE)

Administrator — Tue, 12 Mar 2013 16:29:41 +0000

With the season now over, and the “Bachelorette” not premiering until May 20th, I highly doubt you’ll see me posting three times a week for the next couple months. This week, I’m combining “Reader Emails” and “Dr. Reality Steve” and will post on Thursday. After that, it’s a crap shoot when the next column happens. This is usually where I take a bit of break. Mostly because the emails aren’t coming in at a furious pace, nor are the “Dr. Reality Steve” emails. So those columns will probably be combined and posted once every couple weeks. The one thing I will continue to do for the next two months is post once any “Bachelorette” news happens. Guys started arriving yesterday, and some are arriving today, which tells me that filming is probably being pushed up a couple days. Originally filming was supposed to start this Sunday the 17th, but with guys already in LA, there’s no way they’re gonna make them wait for 5 days since they never have. It never takes that long to … Continue reading →

“Reader Emails,” More Trivia, & Some Thoughts on Idol

Administrator — Thu, 07 Mar 2013 18:01:40 +0000

Only 4 more days away from the finale. Four more days until I’m vindicated from my spoiler posted back in November. Not that this season many have doubted it, but it’s nice to finally have it play out. I think more in the beginning of the season there might have been some doubt because of how little camera time Catherine got, but all in all, people have come to accept that pretty much 95% of the spoilers that I post on this site are going to end up being right. Sure, there are things I don’t know. I don’t know every single square inch detail of every single season. I just post what I know based on what I’m told, and outside of a few exceptions, for three years, it’s all been right. If someone wants to harp on the times I’ve been wrong, let them. Just proves they’re reading every single word I write and are praying that I’m wrong, yet, none of those people ever say a word when the spoilers are right, … Continue reading →

“Dr. Reality Steve” & the Trivia Game Taking the Bachelor World by Storm. Or Something Like That.

Administrator — Wed, 06 Mar 2013 17:16:20 +0000

A lot of emails yesterday to me regarding AshLee’s behavior at the WTA. I’d say it’s running about 50/50, which kinda shocks me. Amazed at how many people are sticking up for her for calling Sean out. I don’t know what happened, you don’t know what happened, and only they do, but I don’t see what was to be accomplished by bringing it up. You can’t go on TV saying you’re over him, then the next sentence grill him for answers. You can’t say “you’re a southern gentleman,” then the next sentence call him a “frat boy.” She was all over the map with what she was saying, it seemed to me her only motivation for doing it (for a woman who clearly specified she was over him) was to humiliate the guy. I don’t know. I guess if you don’t like Sean, then you probably were happy she did that, I just don’t get it. Knowing how OCD she is, and how serious she was all season, and how convinced she was that she … Continue reading →
