Bachelor Sean: Week 5
Half of me wants to write, “The show was all about Tierra. I was bored. The end.” But I know that’s not what you come here for.
You come here for a wacky interpretation of The Bachelor and to read about how Our Host Chris Harrison’s eyes sparkle like the sea after a storm.
You come here to catch a glimpse of certain beloved actors:
And you trick your significant other into learning a valuable lesson from Nick Miller:
And because of your commitment and steadfast dedication to this website, I will write a recap that will capture the specific strand of crazy that is Tierra, the tipsy behavior that is Daniella and the random confusion of that chick we still don’t know.
For you, dear reader, the recap will be up later today in its entirety.
I can’t wait to read your recap!
My thoughts –
1) someone has been giving Sean kissing lessons
2) interesting that he chose Leslie to ask the questions about Tierra (I thnk she is friend zone)
3) I think Sean looked handsomer than ever when he was angry about either being a fool or not geting straight answers (during the Leslie conversation)
4) Tierrable is like the energizer bunny – she just keeps on going!
I am beginning to get Tierra overload. She is getting way too much screen time and getting on my nerves. No question there is something wrong with her, why can’t any of the girls just come out and level with Sean when he asks about her? Everyone is being vague and I can see why that bothers him. I’d love to know how he feels now that he has seen both of Tierra’s personalities.
I think this show has jumped the shark, the same cast of characters each season and it is all phony and scripted. Sean is technically a nice looking guy but he has no sex appeal at all.
I am still looking at the girls like it was the first time I have seen them. Only watch snippets after I read your blog so I know what you were talking about. Totally bored by this whole show and would not watch if not for you Lincee!
I wish the Bach producers would make up their minds. First, they set it up that whoever is the “tattletale”, gets the boot. Now, they want the girls to do the “tattling”, but they won’t, since they’re afraid it will allow them to get the boot. I say, if Sean wants to know what’s going on, find out for himself. Quit hitting on the girls to be the “tattlers”. I’m really, REALLY, tired of this season, especially the Tierra/Sean escapades. Enough already..geesh!
“I want to be your cigarette. I want to linger on your breath.” What the what? THIS is the “romantic” song some unheard of artist serenades Sean, wedding dress girl and random crowd with? And now we know why she’s unheard of. I am having a harder time getting over those lyrics than I am getting over the dent in Tierrable’s head.
Tierra is a big snooze-fest. Who cares? Some crazies on past shows were mildly entertaining but I can’t really get into it this Sean Season. Actually, Sean is pretty boring also.
ABC needs to fix the sound quality. Cringed when I heard Sean (or Tierra/Jackie) gulping wine right before Jackie was sent home. I notice it a lot on Rose ceremonies too. Me thinks ABC has the sensitivity turned way up to catch someone muttering under their breath, but it is fracking annoying.
And one of the girls needs to tell Sean that Tierra is the Vienna of this season, if he has any questions on who nuts she is, call jake. I’m sure he would be happy to have a cameo on Bach again.
Tierra is beyond “fustrating”! Hello.Crazy.Train. How can Sean not see any red flags? The one girl was right in telling Sean if Tierra doesn’t get along with any of us how will she get along with a group of your friends? And it looks like she makes it pretty far in the process- ugh!
My roommate and I were discussing last night the fact that, with the exception of Tierra, we think Sean has chosen a genuinely nice group of girls. Typically, there will be a handful of crazies in the group, but this group seems to be pretty down to earth. Kudos to Sean on that… but it really does make for rather dull TV.
I agree with all of the above. It’s pretty obvious from Sean’s blog in People that he doesn’t pick Tierra b/c he makes several comments about how he obviously didn’t know what she was really like during filming and if he had he would have sent her home earlier. I think when Ben picked Courtney he didn’t address this as much in his blog. He was more defensive about her as you would be when you are made to look like a moron on TV and everyone but you knows it!
Other Leslie and Jackie should have been very specific and told him deets about Tierra as they were booted off the past two weeks. They were the only ones with nothing to lose!
I don’t think he asked Lesley about Tierra b/c she was in the friend zone, but because she’s one of the few with a real brain in her head who might possibly be able to offer real insight. She should have said, “I can’t tell you the truth because we all know the whistle blowers get Das Boot!” Sean wants the truth? He can’t handle the truth!
Can’t wait for the recap, Lincee
Does it bother anyone else when people do the whole “armchair psychologist” thing to explain their own behavior? It’s just ridiculous. When Tierra told Sean that she was emotional and clingy because her ex passed away, I couldn’t believe that he just gobbled it up. No Tierra, you are not emotional and clingy because of that, you are just really egotistical and manipulative because you want to win the prize-being emotional and clingy is getting you where you want to go in this game.
I cringed when Tierra “snuck up” on Sean. Hello, scripted! Like it looked like he knew EXACTLY what was coming. Someone above said it – THIS SHOW HAS JUMPED THE SHARK – and big time! But can’t wait for Lincee’s take on this mess.
My question for these young women and for myself back in my high school and even college drama with girls days is the following: Why do we give a gal like Tierra so much power to make our lives miserable? Why is it so easy for a kind of ganging up on her? Clearly, Tierra may benefit from this victimhood, but what’s in it for the other gals? Does their irritation with her deflect other hostilities that otherwise might exist between several of them? I know why she is such a slap in the face and disturbing—if Sean can like Tierra so much, then how will he really know and like me? Whether they admit or not, they have to be wondering why they are putting this much time and energy into a guy who would like a Tierra.
Seems like some gal for a future season at home watching these patterns emerge just about every round/season could figure out how to bypass this dynamic and have a great time in some really sweet locales. Surely wish smart girl Lesley could fit this bill. Not holding my breath.
I’m dumbfounded that these guys don’t watch previous seasons of the bachelor…or this show has definitely
jumped the shark and it’s totally over produced.
Did Sean not see Courtney on Ben’s season or is he that clueless to the fact that there has been a girl on each season that has one personality that is sickening sweet when with the bachelor and a total BIOTCH when she’s with the girls. Come on, Sean is a total dill weed if he needs to ‘see it for himself’ or have someone confirm his ‘suspicions’.
I think he’s one of the most boring bachelors to date, and I didn’t think that Ben could have been beat in that category. Yawn! If I were Katie Holmes or Leslie, I would pack my bag and flag down the next limo out of Losertown – those girls could do so much better than vanilla Sean.
If Sean can’t see the signs by now I’m sorry but he’s an idiot. How does he not see that obviously Tierra is the token nutjob that the producers seek out each season to create drama in the house?? All the red flags are there!!
This season has had some of the WORST group dates I have ever seen!! Is it really important for Sean to find a woman that can be a lumberjack & milk a goat?…and was it my imagination or did one of the girls think that the goats were dogs?
