i kind of vowed to stop blogging about the bachelor/ette after the idiocracy that was allie’s incredibly annoying season, which kind of turned into me taking a hiatus from blogging in general. sorry about that guys! i keep promising to not let that happen but life tends to get in the way of this from time to time.
anyway, back to the matter at hand. i couldn’t resist letting this go to waste without commenting on it. really, abc? brad womack? the guy who dumped both girls on season 11 leading to the unusually long train of (brad-deanna-jason-jillian-jake-ali) and now back to brad again. he is one of the most hated guys in america, if not america, at least in bachelor history. as a sidenote, my research found of the 30 brad womack groups on facebook, 18 of them are some variation of “i hate brad womack.”
i think i’d almost watch a season of jake again over this. abc, if you are going to recycle someone from bachelor’s past, can’t you at least pick someone people liked? or say, at least someone who is attractive? i volunteer kiptyn. oh wait, that would be if he weren’t dating rainbow brite…oops, i meant tenley. before i get off subject again, let’s discuss brad.
here is a guy who was basically gagging by the time he got to the finale. if you remember correctly, he told deanna he sent jenny home, dropped her hands, walked away from her, loosened his tie in an effort to breathe again and then told her he couldn’t pick her. i’m not saying every show has to have its happily ever after. most of us know you can’t find love on a reality television show but brad went out about in such a jackass way, most of us felt like we had just wasted the last two months of our lives watching the show. what most of you don’t know is deanna’s dad had actually been flown in. little did he know, he would have to console his daughter. hope he didn’t pop the champagne too early.
i’m not saying brad is a bad guy. and i’m sure he had his reasons for sending both deanna pappas and jenni croft home in the finale. however, all i’m saying is abc made a really dumb choice in choosing him as the next bachelor. he already had a shot. he blew it. let’s move in. what does it say about a show whose theme is to find love if they have to reuse the same person? it means the method doesn’t work. and if this is the only guy they can find willing to stand in as the bachelor, that is definitely a problem. the show has already been going down the tubes. but i’m afraid to say, i think brad womack just killed it.
