The Bachelorette: DeAnna Turns Hypocrite

D%20sad.jpg

"I never meant to hurt you..."

Well, it's been a long road, my friends. A long painful road through this season of The Bachelorette. DeAnna returned from torturous rejection to show the world THE CORRECT way to do this show. She was treated completely unfairly and humiliated before the nation, so she came back to do a demonstration of how one goes about being the Bachelor/ette - you know without hurting anyone. Thank you, DeAnna. We are forever in your debt.

"I'm on the verge of a nervous breakdown..."

Here we are, beloved readers, down to nine eligible bachelors on this, the fourth incarnation of The Bachelorette. It's more and more interesting to me each week to note the differences between how guys act when competing for a girl versus how girls act when competing for a guy. I'm gathering that guys basically check out in the hopes of saving themselves some embarrassment. Lucky DeAnna. Join me, won't you?

The Bachelorette: The Ron/Jeremy Clash

The belle of the ball

APOLOGIES, beloved readers, on the arrival of this recap. The job that actually pays my bills took up an inordinate amount of my precious time this last week, but it shan't happen again! And before we start, I have to vent to you a tiny frustration about this season of The Bachelorette. ABC must have it out for me because they have decided to go and make each and every episode TWO HOURS LONG!!! I am only one woman so I am forewarning you now that there will be condensing of the episodes in this, my latest adventure in recapping. Please feel free to mention your favorite moments in the comments if I happen to gloss over them. My brain can only take so much searching for true love in one sitting. Okay, let's see how DeAnna's doing!

The Bachelorette: Greece is the Word

DeAnna.jpg

Who's laughing now?

Tonight is the special 2 hour premiere episode of The Bachelorette. DeAnna has returned from rejection to blink us back into the arms of destiny. She's learned a big lesson in a big way, and the biggest part of that lesson is to never come on TV to find love. Oops, no, it is to never trust a guy who has a beard. Wrong again, the lesson DeAnna really learned is that if cupid has a name, it's ABC. She's back!

Bachelors Continue to Pervade Society

jerry_salon

Big news. Jerry from The Bachelorette 3 has been spotted... again. This time his smoldering visage graces a banner advertising the opening of Lily's Hair Studio, an establishment that promises a Supercuts-worthy variety of 'dos for kids AND guys! Surely this plum spokesmodel position might be considered "lame" or "laughable", but it's pretty obvious from the pic that Lily most likely poached a headshot from the mid 90s. Still, after a post-Bachelorette career that's had him chilling out with Danny Bonaduce, it might be safe to say that Lily's could very well be a high point on Jerry's resume. Hey, and work is work. Rumor has it he'll be lending his image to Madeleine Ippolito's Garage Sale in South Salem, NY. Come for Jerry, stay for the Fiestaware!

Thanks to TVgasm reader Cara for not only having eagle eyes but snapping a photo too. And big ups to her for interrupting her St. Patrick's Day celebration to get the shot. For all those wishing to see the banner in person, check out Lily's Hair Studio, located at 300 E. 88th Street, NYC. TVgasm also welcomes any photos readers wish to take of themselves with the Bachelor banner. Perhaps a photo contest? Email all entries to bside@tvgasm.com...
