I think she should be the next Bachelorette. She´s one of the prettiest and most gorgeous women to ever be on the Bachelor. I´d say she was similar to Emily, the men would be going nuts over her and not faking it. I was mad at Joey for sending her home, I wanted to see her at least get to home-towns. The only thing wrong with her is the way she talks, she like, says like a lot.

I watched The Housewife and the hustler this morning and then this episode straight after. I´ve never had a more difficult time with an episode... I´m disgusted with the show and all the other housewives (even Sutton, Garcelle and Crystal a little bit) because of the way they bow to, tolerate and/or worship the vile pos that is Erika. Her performance at the white party was monstrous. Everyone who celebrated her singing "it´s expensive to be me" should be ashamed.

She can´t keep it in any longer. She has a massive dark side for sure. Sidney was mean but also out of her mind with paranoia and delusions. I think that gives her a bit of an excuse for the way she behaved but Lea was happy to keep the lies and issues going for no reason and she genuinely smiled when Maria started crying out of frustration. She got enjoyment out of watching someone else get hurt.

These people are almost all so stupid. They keep listening to the ultra-dumb blonde chick(/s) who´s been wrong throughout. And that boxer, he should feel so incredibly embarrassed, as well as everyone who listened to him after the way he passionately defended Dan for no reason. All their ideas at the round table seem to come out of nowhere and make not the slightest bit of sense. Like okay, Kevin is annoying Tamra but is that a good reason for so many to vote for him? What was the point behind it? He´s an actor and they believe he´s such a great one that he´s outsmarting them with some slightly exaggerated facial expressions? Have they not seen Phaedra? And why do they always turn on the one (Larsa) who tried to stop them from voting for someone who turned out to be a faithful? Why aren´t they giving them some credit? Why is the Survivor mastermind Sandra so clueless and boring in every way? I´ve got so many questions... I can´t believe Larsa and her boyfriend are the only ones who are actually a little bit smart. I can´t stand Larsa on Rhom but she´s my favorite on this show (well, after Phaedra). Dan is so obviously the traitor and Phaedra as well.

I have been wondering what happened to the boom-boom room too.

OMG I can see an earlier comment of mine from 4 years ago and it proves that I did watch season 4. How scary that I completely blocked it out, except for episode 1 :/

Thank you. I completely agree! I just did a rewatch of all the series except for season 4 which I had missed for some reason so it was my first time watching that the whole way through. I remembered that I always hated Rachel, I couldn´t stand how every guy kept falling madly in love with her and yet she was disgusting (almost) all the time, I used to follow the discussion while the show was airing and felt completely alone in my opinion of her back then. Season 4 was difficult to watch, and almost boring in a way. Rachel kept making faces, her evilness and sleaze-factor became a joke. I wish she had suffered more. I wouldn´t even compare her to Quinn because Quinn was fun to watch, kind of a humorous villain mega-bitch. Rachel had none of her charms or reasons for doing mean and despicable things. Quinn was redeemed in season 4 until at the very end.

I got a really off vibe about her when she first started appearing on the show as James girlfriend, she wasn´t just dumb, it was more like she lacked all charisma and "life". I think many viewers felt that way at the time, she wasn´t liked but she wasn´t disliked either. James is very much the opposite of that, he´s full of life and has a great on-screen presence about him. Then as time went on I started to notice a huge shift in favor of Rachel/Raquel on boards like this where people are talking about these characters, suddenly she was considered extremely beautiful and so kind, people were quite passionate about it and I started thinking that it must be true and I just sort of believed it, despite the way I had felt about her at first. I was fooled into caring for her, she wasn´t shown doing anything wicked and the others were constantly going on and on about her innocence and beauty. I´m more of the opinion now that she just has a personality disorder and she´s not that beautiful either. ETA: I always enjoyed Britney, she has a big personality that makes up for her faults imo. She gave a lot more to the show than R ever did.

It´s because we expect it from him. She was a fan favorite because she seemed like such a lovely and sweet person compared to the others. There is being dumb (like we all thought she was) and then there´s being so dumb that you get involved in this revolting affair. Sorry, not buying that dumb & kind act anymore and I don´t give her any benefit of the doubt because of her previous relationship or for being "vulnerable" either. It´s an interesting take on the situation, but I just don´t see that it applies here.

I am still totally convinced that Kate and Logan (and Hayden and probably Jacob and a few others) are 100% acting. Every time Kate and Logan kiss it looks so awkward, and nothing like when people who are really attracted to each other kiss. They literally pushed themselves apart after it looked like they were counting to 10 (to make it look like a real and passionate kiss). No nose-bumping while staring into each others eyes, or an extra kiss on the cheek, the neck or the forehead, which usually follows a real make-out session. They simply have no chemistry and they don´t talk about anything except how real their relationship is and how happy they are going forward together etc. No other couple talks that way or ever has on this show. Kate always looks like the cat who caught the canary because her role involves being the most sought after woman on the beach, which is laughably fake and phony. But I´m not going to complain about it, this is gold to snark on but I do feel for Rodney because he won me over. I thought he looked like the beast to Elisa´s beauty, but he is honestly a good guy (so the "beast" would still fit him I guess) and I hope he finds a nice woman outside of the show. I couldn´t take Elisa during her weird meltdown. I don´t like Aaron but I feel sorry for him getting stuck with Genevieve. She has smiled 3 times... it´s freaking me out. I do like Shanea, which is weird, she´s been okay this season and I´m willing to bet that she was mostly acting the role of a mean lunatic when she was on the Bachelor. I was telling my mom about this show the other day, and happened to mention that they all cry a lot and she asked me why they were always crying and I said it´s because they think that the only chance of finding love is on this show, and if it doesn´t happen it never will. It´s a mass delusion of some kind.

Last season on the bachelorette/s there was this guy who claimed to have a dog and my theory was that there was never a dog. I thought it was obvious that that guy was just trolling the show. Anyways, now I´m back with an even more (far-fetched?) conspiracy theory... It´s about Logan and Kate. I am sure that they are both acting, and I have two possible scenarios about how that happened, the first one is what I believe but the second one is probably far more likely. 1) They knew each other and were in an open relationship before BIP. They are just better at scheming and keeping things quiet than the other ones in that situation have been. They were allowed to make-out and do things with others, but at some point they were scheduled to have a brief conversation where they felt an instant connection and just had to drop everything (much better looking partners) for each other. I find it like zero believable that this could happen organically. Kate is so unattractive compared to the rest of the women and her voice is super manly, I will give her that she is probably quite fun and easy going, but in this situation that would not have played such a big part. I get the feeling that this is Kate´s plan, Logan actually has feelings for her from before the show and wants to play his part right, but he came across as a whiny little boy who wasn´t actually fully invested in what he was saying. I agree with Shanae that dumping her for Kate makes NO SENSE. The way he just ignored Sara also comes across as someone who is nervous and trying to follow a plan he is not really 100% sure of. 2) The producers are in cahoots with Logan and Kate on this act they have got going. Maybe they even scripted the whole thing. They are using Logan´s flip-flopping ways to create drama, yet again. Logan and Kate are in on it, to what degree they are really together as a couple is up to question. There could possibly be some others who are in on it too, like Jacob. Even though I hate Shanae I also do think that she is one of the hottest ones there. And slightly likeable. I don´t think she would make a scene over Logan, I don´t think she´s mad enough to make herself look a fool over such a pathetic dude. It almost seemed like everyone was ready for a show down where Shanae would come in attacking, yelling and screaming. But she was totally cool (imo) and saw through this farce.

Lace gets to go back to paradise because this will be an epic moment for the whole show, there are very few people on planet earth this crazy. Not trying to put her down, I mean if she wants to act this way on television she is free to make that choice, at 32 years of age. Rodney and her had been flirty for a couple of days, now he is with a stunning, extremely (imo) out of his league woman who is nice and normal. I feel like this is what I always hope happens on BIP but never does (until now).

But Lace is more ancient in bachelor years, maybe they are going by those.

The completely naked guy from last season was 40, right? I think Michael and Andrew are the only cute guys there. I guess Jacob and Johnny are okay-ish, but that´s about it. But the women are almost all gorgeous (Kira is yuck), even Shaneae is not ugly, no matter how much I want her to be. And Jill is cute in the "loves cats and books" way.

I have to say something about Sergio and Stansbury. I find them to be the most ridiculous couple... I like Caroline Stansbury and I thought Sergio was smoking hot and a really sweet guy. It was nice to see them so in love. But as the show has gone on and watching their wedding storyline, I can´t but help feeling very weird about it. First off, Sergio is soooo ignorant and dumb. His obsession with Caroline is very over the top. It often seems like she isn´t really that into him as a person, she tolerates his stupidity and looks at him like he is an embarrassing child. And in those moments I truly admire her strength, lol, because I have been embarrassed by guys who didn´t say 1/100 of the stupid cringe stuff he comes up with. When I´m watching their scenes I can´t help but wonder if he is under some kind of love spell.
