Bachelor Jake: Episode Four
Recap will be up tomorrow after I finish my to-do list:
1. Find empty wine bottle to spin on cutting board. Find man to go on the other side of that cutting board.
2. Roll around in the mud. I hear Jake likes dirty girls!

Jake is FINALLY getting his man on with this crop of potential “wives”. Weed ‘um out, dude!
*Ali must feel canary yellow is her signature color
*Gia’s grammar was the worst
*Jessie was working the teal green eye shadow (Bonnie Bell days, for sure)
I honestly think Jake is above all of this in the end, unfortunately!
Is it just me, or does Jake have absolutely zero chemistry with any of these women? It all seems so forced. Even more so than usual.
No Susan #2 it is not just you. He really does not seem to be into any of them. Ashleigh was too aggressive and the group that I was watching with all said she would go. Jessie was never shown and she tattled so she would go. Ella was kept for the mother story line but no chemistry so she was a goner. Katheryn not shown and no chemisty=gone. Corrie shown very little so she will undoubtably be gone soon. Gia shown a little more than Corrie, but still seems forced…Will last a little longer but just don’t see it…Really heels for camping? Tenley who talks about her divorce all the time…Not the one. Ali is shown bitching about Vienna and Jake the tattle tale doesn’t like tattle tales. There is chemistry here but he resents her about disliking Vienna and she resents him about liking Vienna…so bye bye. We are left with Vienna? There is chemisty here also, but the other girls warning him about her is starting to bug him and the lights seem to be coming on. Sadly I am thinking Jake will dump them all. 🙂
Loved that the wardrobe consultant obviously said to them, “Ladies, we want this opening sequence to look like someone opened a container of rainbow sprinkles and spewed them all over the couch. Can you help us out?” Never have I seen so many different colors of sweat outfits in one place.
Funniest moment of the night: Tenley asking Jake if he was comfortable while his head was in her lap and his nose was literally an eighth of an inch away from her boob. I half expected him to say “Mama!”
I agree that it all seems very forced. But it always does. I’m a sucker for wanting them to find love, so I will keep hoping, although it really doesn’t look likely this time.
Wow, down to 5 already, from 25! Jake seems anxious to get it over with — He sure doesn’t look like he’s having much fun. I agree he is too mature for most of the girls. Did you know OHCH is going to be on Ellen tomorrow (Wednesday)? Here’s his blog, while we wait for Lincee’s recap:

Sherm, I TOTALLY noticed that about the sweat outfits. I don’t own one of those, and for a second, I thought, “Wait, did I miss something? Does EVERYONE have one of those?” I think it must have been on their packing list or something. With a checklist of colors so no duplicates.
I think my favorite part was when Gia said she was ecstatic(k)ed.
Tomorrow? *cries* Haven’t watched the episode yet (I watch it on Tuesday, because better shows come on during the same time period) but at least I’ll have plenty of time now.
When one of the girls said “Highway of Love”, was I the only person that said “there is the title of the blog tomorrow!!!!!!!”
Between Gia’s glow-in-the-dark cherry red lipstick and her freaking out about raccoons (I know she’s from NY, but c’mon) she needs to go (although in the previews for next week Jake tells her/us he’s really falling for her.) The conversations are just painful to listen to. Did anyone else hear the crickets chirping? And my take on the sweat outfits is that they all had a similar design, just in different colors – maybe there’s an official Bachelor one? Oooo, where can I buy it?!! (No way….)
Like a bad accident, I just can’t stop watching this….
Lincee,
Don’t forget to add to your to-do list:
-get new Lee Press-on Nails (like the ones Ella so clearly needs- hers were YELLOWING!)
-purchase 80’s make-up and cocktail dress (thanks for that Jessy, we needed a laugh)
Jake has no chemistry with these chicks – maybe he shouldn’t have kept all the dummies and let the smart gals go on the first night? Or MAYBE he should be on the Bachelorette instead, know what I am saying? Of any of them, he seems to have the most chemistry with Gia though…
Ashleigh cocked her head to the side to much and said, “What’s up?” way to much – he just had nothing to say to her, bless her heart.
Why was Jessie even still on the show? I never even talks to her – it was like he just overlooked her.
Vienna will now always be referred to by me as “The Sausage.” I didn’t see how she was so mean and nasty in prior weeks – I just thought she was dumb. But this week, she was EXTRA dumb – seriously wanted to punch her the face. Glad Jessie told him that she was a spoiled little daddy’s girl. I think the producers made Jake keep her.
And yeah, I thought he was a pilot not a Harley Davidson representative (not the baddest bike on the block either, my friend.) I am waiting for them to play some “Life in the Fastlane” except Jake is wallpaper to me…….snorrrrrrrrrrrrrrre. I mean there is NOTHING funny about this guy AT ALL – I could never be with a guy who can’t make me laugh. Luckily my man is a hoot. Bring in the recap…..
funny husband comment…”whoa, they are NOT going to let those girls drive the buses are they!?!?”
also, I guess someone needs to explain to Gia that although Jake wants kids, he doesn’t want to start with full grown 23 yr olds. Stop climbing the man like a 2 year old child! that REALLY bugged me.
Ali- what a snot blossom! “I call shot gun” “dibs on 1st shower” “if Vienna doesn’t go, Jake is going to get a talk from me” bossy bossy
and doesn’t it seem like she is manipulating the other girls into doing her dirty work? sending them in to talk to Jake about how awful V is & getting themselves sent home in the process? brilliant, actually!
So who invited Brenda Walsh to the rose ceremony? Oh wait, that was Jessie. (I swear I wore that exact same outfit, dress/hose/eyeshadow, to the Homecoming Dance ’94
OMGia, did she really use the word “broughten”, as in “so glad he’s broughten me here”? I seriously thought I heard that. She’s on my last nerve–from those lips to the Flashdance off-the-shoulder-too-long sleeves to the stiletto Harley ride (did anyone notice that she ditched the heels for vineyard hide & seek?)
And how about Ashleigh’s business sprawled out all over the sofa when she was desperately trying to connect with The Bore? I hope that was some kind of “hot pants” outfit? Yikes.
Do 31 yr. old dudes REALLY use the word “refreshing” to describe a girl? He seems more like a 50 yr. old politician.
