Hi! Another (less funny)website has an article with an interview with Frosty, I mean, Michelle ... she'd been stung by a bee shortly before she fell down the stairs. In the interview she said she's highly allergic to bee stings and went upstairs for a while to recuperate, but didn't want to miss much so headed back downstairs. Lindsay was with her when she fell. Michelle thought she may have passed out at the top of the stairs.

Anyone else suprised that Michelle didn't get a rose?
I figured ABC would force him to let her stay at least one more round so she wouldn't sue for falling on their property or something.

And I must've missed the McCarten-bad kiss annoucement. I'm thinking I should rewind the tape so I could have a good laugh before work.

Thanks for the review, HG!

Great recap.

Why do some girls think that acting like a slut in front of America and Brad's mother will be just the right thing to win the Bachelor's heart?

Unfortunately for Michelle, those chunky blond highlights do not disguise her otherwise mannish appearance. I kept staring at her and thinking she could be a drag queen in this episode.

I think you wrote this in your last recap, but Solisa looks MUCH older than 25. Her face just looks hard. I guess resisting temptation and sticking to your morals tends to age you faster? I wouldn't know.

Also, I didn't like Mallory the naughty nanny, but I can't blame her for her answer. Would I include going to work on my perfect day? Probably not, Brad. Not all of us get to work at the Dizzy Rooster.

Great job again. This episode wasn't that great, although I did enjoy McLovin rushing to get the 1st kiss and totally blowing it. I was surprised she got a rose after that display.

I'm so glad you caught Kristy trying not to snicker after Brad fills them in on Michele falling down the stairs. Rude!

McCarten, Hilary and Jade are all striking me as jealous, b*tchy, backstabbers. There is no way they're in the final 3.

The only two that I really still genuinely like are DeAnna and Bettina. Jenni is OK but far too perky/giggly for my tastes.

So far, Brad has been the least annoying of all the Bachelors...well, I also liked Andrew. He's most appealing when he gives private interviews and lets down his guard/laughs at some of the things the girls do aka webbed toes girl and McCarten and her lame-o kiss.

Also, I'm with you on the Brad/Chad thing. Really - was that your best bet Mrs. Womack?? Also, I read that before changed their last name to that of their biological dad they went by their stepdad's last name...Pickleseimer. Yikes.

ps* I, too, was shocked he didn't give Michele a pity rose to allow her to stay around one more week...and instead kept ho-lisa. boo!

Thanks Honey! Love your take on everything. I missed most of this, so it's good to get a fill-in--I had no idea that when Jade was breaking it to Brad gently about the (eek) MODELING PORTFOLIO, that she was somehow one he liked. After your description, I likely hate everyone, but I'll tune in next week to make sure!

Thanks for the laughs!

and DP--I agree, how unreality TVish to not give the wounded Michelle a chance to prove she really is a woman!

Ho boy, here we go again. Doesn't anything EVER change on this show? :D I mean, really, how alluring is it to shoot hard alcohol and then drape yourself all over the guy? Well, I suppose *some* guys like that, but most guys I know of would see it as an opportunity to take advantage, NOT as a wife-suitable quality. But, hey, this is Hollywood, and this tactic seems to work for Lindsay Lohan. Oh wait... Still, I don't think I'll be adding it to my list of "First Date Must-Do's" anytime soon.

And "Classy girls vs. Skanky girls"? ::giggle:: Are they serious? Ladies, please remember, you're participating in a "Reality TV" show. Any shred of class any of you had was left behind EONS ago - probably around the time y'all decided that the Bachelor looked like a great way to jumpstart your reality-TV careers... if not long before.

Too funny that Michele got booted so early. It must be evolution interfering before there's even a remote chance of offspring, kinda like last season with whatshername. The could-have-been-fatal injury didn't work, so fate whispers to Brad that she needs to go. I'm also a little surprised at how Michele looks. Granted, that shouldn't count, but this is television. She's just... odd looking. A little horse-ish, even. Very long face, manly... definitely a strange choice by the producers. But, then, maybe all these girls start looking the same after digging through the stacks of resumes, and someone who doesn't fit the over-processed southern-California mold starts to be a breath of fresh air. ::shrug:: Probably would for me.

Anyhoo, thanks for the recap Honey! I was laughing all the way through. :D

DP Hooker, I totally agree with you. When I got a close look at Michelle, I thought "It's a she-man!". I think the blond "chunks" actually made her hair look greasy. Poor thing.

Oh! How I love this show! The mocking of the "ladies" (and I use that term loosely) goes on and on.

Some of them are so incredibly b*tchy! I hope their families are cringing when they watch this.

Great recap! I look forward to it every week!

And don't mock the Barbie horse...I LOVED mine. ;)

This show is one of the main reasons foreigners HATE America! I LOVE it!
Crazy,jealous,drunken,vain, catty,lying about their ages,desperate for attention skanks! It's awesome!
Great recap!
