Although I couldn't stand either woman.. or him for that matter... I was glad he didn't pick Bevin. God she was just.. I dunno... something about her just screamed pathetic/desperate/bitchy.
Not tht Tessa was any better though. You could totally tell she was just saying what she thought he wanted to hear so she could stay longer. Her ass just seemed SO freaking fake.
Anyways blahblahblah.. he was a moron anyway so it doesn't matter. I usually don't watch the Bachelor and now I see why....

Lame lame lame!!! Shame on Lt. Mayo for telling both girls he loves them ... what a total douchebag! As much as I didn't personally see the electricity between him and Bevin I felt really sorry for the girl - she was completely strung along.

And Honey... it's "confesses" ... not "confessionals" - sorry but it bugged me all season.

Andy's grandmother looked frightenly like Don Imus. No wonder Gramps was hot for Tessa if he admitted to Andy if had to do it all over again.

I love the word "confessionals." It's a brave new verb for the brave new world of reality television and many recappers use it when writing about reality shows. Love you, Honey. I enjoyed your recaps so much!

If Andy is "Mayo", wouldn't that make his sister Susie "Hollandaise Sauce"?

itsthecheese/#2: I think she uses "confessionals" because the person isn't necessarily "confessing", but going into the confessional and talking to the camera. I like it.

I must say, though, what has bothered me all season is calling Andy "Mayo" - did I miss something in a post that explained. That literally bugged the entire time.

Anyway, I'm glad he picked Tessa, although they really never did look like they were kissing. And most of the time it would look as if she was turning away from his kiss. But I've now seen them on two interview shows and they're adorable and she's moving to Hawaii. They're engaged, but it's not as if they're getting married tomorrow. They're going to see how things work "in the real world".

For the longest time, I just thought the guy's name was Andy Mayo.

Andrew James Baldwin? Who's that?

Honey Gangsta, I love your recaps! Please say youre going to recap After the Final Rose. Anyway, I knew he would pick Tessa - she looks like she's from Huh-Why, right? And I hope Sulky Bevin will NOT be the next Bachelorette...

Dear Livemusicjunckie - Mayo was the name of Richard Gere in An Officer and a Gentlemen, the movie... Hence the "nickname" in blogs for Andy... Hope you are no longer "bugged"...

I pitty you for having to sit through all that nonsense, but thanks for doing it for me :) Can't believe the run is over... please say you're coming back for the "after the final rose" recap!

I'm of the opinion that ABC should compensate you for the time you spent watching and thinking about this show. I really am. I mean, honestly, how is it that tripe like this manages to stay in prime-time!?

Thanks so much for sticking to it, no matter how painful. Your recaps and insight are MUCH more enjoyable than the actual show (which, again, is why I think ABC should compensate you - they not able to buy publicity this good!)

BTW, have you had any success implementing your parallel dating methods? :) I'd love to hear about that if/when you do the "After the Final Rose" recap. It would be highly entertaining to see how people really react when they're not being paid to pretend like they don't mind. ;)

I really think Tessa knew what she was doing all along... holding back, making him pursue her, then at the last minute when she had to make a play to win, told him exactly what he wanted to hear.

My favorite parts of this episode:
- The Mayo family being totally uncomfortable with Bevin's research of the female post-menapausal libido, but they had no problem when Grandpa Guy was discussing Mayo being "turned on" by Bevin. It creeped me out.
- I swear to god i thought that Bevin was having an orgasm when she first saw the helicopter. I was like wow, she is really laying it on thick, but then i realized she was scared. Again, her noises and body contorsions still made me uncomfortable.
- Mayo telling Bevin that on his next birthday, he "wanted to get married." Well of course his wedding day would be on his birthday because this relationship will be all about him, and his lifestyle, and how well his "queen" can fit into it. He's really an egotistical prick - i wonder how gatsby puts up with it.

Great job with the recaps - i loved them all.

Love the recaps - but can't believe you didn't get a screencap of that awful painting in Mayo's house. The one of the hobo clown. You saw it right when Tessa walked in. Only thing that would have been worse is Dogs Playing Poker.
