Can we get the ABC psychotherapist over here please?

I’m telling you…that’s one person who was working overtime during After the Final Rose.  Her and the drama coach because this was some SERIOUS ACTING going on tonight!  My favorite was when Hare had to bite his lip in order not to bust out laughing during his awkward third wheel moment when Melissa was being thrown under the bus. 

Twenty-four.  That’s how many times Jason cried tonight.  Ironically, it’s also the number of crotch shots during Molly’s naughty massage.  Coincidence?  I think not. 

Yes I’m annoyed.  Yes I think Jason is a d-bag and ABC is in it for the ratings.  I got sucked in for sure and definitely had something WAY MORE dramatic in my imagination than what happened.  However, I do feel sorry for Melissa.  Uncool that Jason and Molly mugged down moments after Mel is sent home in the rejection limo. 

Apparently, there’s a part two tomorrow night.  I’m sure it’s going to be an hour long session of ABC and Hare convincing us that this is not a scripted show.  Just like the Hills.

I’ll have a recap tomorrow night.  After the After the Final Rose part 2.  I’m going to see my Ukrainian now.  Double date with Jillian, eh?

I am completely baffled at the ending. I cannot believe that is what happened and again I feel awful for Melissa. I just hope Jason has a good run, because his track record is not the best. Divorced, Denied Proposal, has a great girl but dumps her on national TV, to now he is “completely in love” for the 4th time!!!!!!

And after all this time I thought Jason was such an amazing guy! I feel so bad for Melissa, there was no need for him to dump her on camera then makeout with Molly. Not cool Jason

Regardless of what Jason claims he had to do on national tv, the making out with Molly shortly after breaking up with Melissa is tacky. I feel Jason is immature and is setting a bad example for his son. I will never watch the bachelor again, regardless of how scripted or not this show happens to be.
I hope Melissa finds true happiness and can put all of this behind her.

YES. I am so completely irritated with ABC. Jackholes. Poor Melissa. If they’d REALLY respected them all, they wouldn’t have let Jason dump Melissa on screen, then make out with Molly moments later. Douche.

I am so disappointed with this show. Is it so wrong to have a happily ever after? I know that ABC was in it for the ratings, but their plans may have backfired on them. There are A LOT of PISSED people out there.

You could tell it was all contrived, from Molly’s foreshadowing in the rose ceremony to the fake crying, it was awful. But I think that Melissa was spot on. She deserves better, and if Molly and Jason were somehow in on this with the producers, or OHCH, or the intern, then they deserve each other. I honestly don’t know if I can watch this again. But I’m sticking with Lincee 100%.

Also? Jason has crappy taste in engagement rings.

I just loved how Molly kept looking over at Hare with her deer in the headlights expression, almost saying can we PLEASE cut to commercial so I can process some of this?!

(btw, a group of fellow greenbean haters were watching the show rocking our side ponytails & scarves) No spray tans.

Go Melissa, by the way, for giving him a piece of her mind. I hope she ripped him a new one once they were off camera.

Now I know why Jason’s first wife divorced him. He’s a drama queen who wants what he can’t have. And even if Melissa wasn’t right for him, it was really tacky of him to dump her on TV (although I admit that like a car accident, I couldn’t look away).

I am disgusted. So tomorrow is going to put a spin on it night? Yuck.

i’m going to go ahead and assume that the abc intern is a slender male and had all of jason’s suits tailored to fit him because he wrongly assumed they were the same size. jason’s suits and ties have been horrendous all season, but tonight’s suit was especially strange because it matched perfectly molly’s dress. foreshadowing?…hmmm…

anyone else notice the editing in favor of molly tonight instead of melissa? abc knew we’d be pissed and tried to show molly in a more positive light so we’d feel better about jason dumping melissa for molly. the moment i began to not care who he picked because i knew he was not in the game for marriage was when he told jillian he did not want to be married to his best friend. seriously, i’ve never seen a dude play the field more except maybe bob. jason’s tongue was down everyone’s throat, even stalker shannon. this guy was desperate for some play, and he got it. molly is obviously the more physical of the two, and melissa seemed to genuinely want to settle down and have a family. i’m pretty sure jason mistakes “chemistry” for “fondling and heavy petting”.

i also don’t believe that ty lives with jason or has much to do with his father other than holidays and occasional weekends. i’m surprised he doesn’t have a slew of illegitimate children from this season!

so, so, so disappointed

Have you ever thought that for ratings, to draw us in (admit it we all did besides lincee)

that reality steve had a contract from ABC to give us the “spoiler”??? he was dead on and hit US Weekly Magazine……

Have you ever thought about that? Did it tune us in? Yes! Did it leave us to want to know what happened tomorrow? That is a question

Jason says, ” it just wasn’t the same after we got engaged…”! No kidding, no cameras, no fancy settings, no girls waiting in line to fuss over me! What an idiot.

If it was not scripted, then there sure were a lot of convenient “lines” to film! How lucky they spouted the things that would lead us down this road. Not.

If they did not know the script how did they know to close the set?? What a set up. Molly even said their relationship started out physical…well, so much for Jason thinking with his head. Just saying.

I thought it was funny that Ty took to Melissa and had to be prompted to like and warm up to Molly.

Whenever they showed Melissa she and Jason were snuggled right up together. Between Molly and Jason was a pillow or distance! I guess he wanted the physical one that he was less sure of.

#13 ~ Of COURSE Jason was thinking with his head, honey! Just not the head that sits on top of his neck, that’s all.

What a pig. I’m sick.
