I'm hearing a lot of people demanding (for what that's worth) Natasha be the next Bachelorette. I can't be the only one that's not on board with that, right? She wasn't all that likable from what we saw on Peter's season, though that's a tough season to judge anyone by. The only thing she did in BiP was get fooled by (and then mistreated by) Brendan, which seems like not the greatest resume filler. And she's got a podcast with Tayshia and Grocery Joe. She's as close to being part of The Bachelor as you can be without getting paid by ABC. (And for all I know, the Click Bait guys do get paid by ABC.) I'm sure she's a nice person and she didn't deserve what she got in Paradise. So I wouldn't hate it if she were the Bachelorette -- I think she'd be better than Hannah B -- but she's not at the top of my list even among Paradise folks. Deandra or Bri, however... different story... Or if people are going to insist on a contestant who got done wrong by the other contestants, maybe they could escort (ha!) Brittany on in.

Looks like her to me, although it looks like she got caught mid-smile.

From Covid to dumped. Stay away from Tammy on her next birthday. And every other day TBH. She seems obnoxious.

if that's an act, it's a long con. they broke up a year and a half ago. that would be awesome :)

JESUS H CHRIST IN A CHICKEN BASKET CAN WE GET 2O MORE MINUTES OF RILEY AND MAURISSA GIVING EACH OTHER TONGUE BATHS sorry

I understand being mad at Brendan and Pieper, but isn't a little rich for Demi to be all pissed off after bringing her girlfriend to Paradise last time?

If you guys hate the constant recapping, I recommend staying away from Big Brother. The recapping there is only interrupted by explanations of how the game works and the occasional expression of someone's desire to win.

Ya know, I had a hard time spotting what Alana did wrong. She might have been a little mercenary, but nothing about her approach to BiP was much different from, say, Demi's. Jessinia said she was talking about followers at some point, but if anything she's just guilty of saying the quiet part out loud. But after Brendan and Pieper, my moral outrage may need recalibrating.

I love that Aaron keeps losing women to Thomas. Aaron is going to eventually snap and start looking for a bell tower

Speaking of Tayshia... is there a word for the feeling you get when a bullet which might have hit you doesn't?

...and of course here comes the conspiracy theories that Natasha was in on it because she and Pieper were apparently seen together before filming. I dunno... Occam's Razor cuts that all to pieces.

That was incredible to watch. A reputation snuff film.

I'm not a fan of Demi v3.0. I thought she was great on Colton's season and was fun on BiP, especially when you put her and Jordan together. This latest version is just mean, and not funny enough to compensate. All IMHO of course

RE: Tia A "china pot"? Really? I'm from the South too, and I've never heard that. It makes her sound fragile. But this might give Kenny the chance to be a bull in a china pot. I HAVE heard it called a "honey pot" which seems no better. All that's gonna do it ruin Winnie the Pooh stories for you.

She also plays ukelele and I can't believe she and Connor missed each other.

Me: Serena is awesome. Joe's a lucky guy. Also me: I would hip-check Serena into traffic if she got in my way while going to talk to Kendall. (I know I am likely in a tiny tiny minority here, but Kendall has been my kryptonite on this show from the very first minutes of Arie's season.) Demi v3.0 can FRO whenever she's ready. And take Tammy with her.

Truly. If this is normal for him, there might be more to his split with Kendall than her not wanting to live in Chicago.

*sob* I am here listening to ukelele music instead of doing literally anything back home with Sarah *sob*

Exactly. Like a rose has rented her affection until the man decides to no longer honor the contract. Aaron, I think, is way more problematic than Thomas.

Demi hasn't figured out that windows close. Either physical windows or windows of fame. That's sort of the point, Demi! Go live your life!

Now you're just channeling every unmarried man in Sacramento.

I wanted ONE THING from BiP this season, and i'm not going to get it: Queen Victoria being psychotic while a clearly smitten Bennett sits with her and explains how she is deficient in several of the core competencies of emotional intelligence. Then he says he wants to love her up. Now she's gone and he isn't even THERE. This is the lamest timeline. :(

Their publicists.

Honestly, I hope we get at least one neurotic interaction between Demi and The Goddess. Then they can go.

I thought I was watching BiP but i didn't see Bibiana or Annaliese ANYWHERE
