So, Yohan doesn't want to work just to pay bills. What did he think life would be like in the US? Brandan's mom bonding with Mary and giving sage advice - I didn't see that coming!

It didn't take but a hot minute for Sophie to find a pretty upscale (albeit it looked like a place ppl rent to shoot porn) place to stay (she referred to it as "some house in LA"). I bet she doesn't have to go outside to get to the bathroom. And, is she really "stranded" with no place to go? What about going back where she came from (was it London?)? Nikki seems hyper-sexualized, mentions that her hormone shot made her horny, etc. She probably hangs out with people just like her so it's normal conversation. She needs to read the room and tone the sex conversations down with "regular" folk. Jasmine is just beyond, always looking for the worst. It's gotta be exhausting.

We started out the season with Janelle just moving into that sad, tiny little apartment with the sad tiny Christmas tree. Was she there even 6 months? Big upgrade to her spiffy new digs, but yes, it's dizzying keeping up with all their comings and goings. And yes, it was ridiculous for Robyn to expect to be invited to Christine's party. Why? Just, why? She will do and say anything to try to manipulate people to feel sorry for her. It's beyond embarrassing. I just love it that we see the OG3 living their best lives, then a TH of the miserable lovers.

The "brunch with family" episodes are always my least favorite of the season. It all just feels like scripted Q&A job interviews.

Yikes, Cheryl is SCARY SKINNY! When they showed her walking outside, something was off, she was walking funny, like someone does when they are trying to hide something under their shirt (if that makes sense).

I don't think he was unsure of his decision, I think it was more that he hated to hurt someone's feelings. After having made such close connections with them all, he's going to break someone's heart, and that's hard to do, especially while being filmed!

Loving this show! I think it's clearly Omarosa's to win, she is absolutely the worst. A lot of them are playing a role, but she really IS a villain. The only way she would NOT win is if the participants voted. We shall see . . .

Color me shocked that Michael's bride-to-be gave him the sword and crown. Seeing him standing at the altar in that getup, I was NOT surprised that she backed out. Now to find out it was HER idea?!?!?! I don't EVEN know what to think anymore!

I just can't decide which of these characters is most disgusting.

Here's my take on this show, there are two separate scenarios happening simultaneously. One is for filming - each is given their "role", whether it be mean girl, victim, sexy siren, sweet/innocent, etc. Gerry is in on this as well and understands that when the cameras a rolling, it's all an act. Then, there's what we don't see, what isn't filmed. That's when Gerry actually gets to know the ladies real persona. And, Susan has a million dollar smile! She could do toothpaste commercials!

I'm happy with all the ladies who are left. Garry got a very nice group of women to get to know. I have to say, last night it seemed to me at least that (although they still look GREAT), they have aged a lot since the premiere. I suppose they had glam for the initial meetings. Now, they've had at least a couple weeks of living in a group setting, away from their normal routines and, if it were ME, they are probably not getting a lot of sleep. Not to mention, they are no doubt doing their own hair/makeup. Adding that I think all the women will have full, robust dating lives after the show. Some of them haven't dated in a while, and they got a little taste of the excitement of a new possibility, not to mention they will get recognized from their exposure on the show.

To see Michael at the "altar" in that getup with the costume crown and sword, yeah, I'd bolt too. It's OK to have quirks (Bennett and Amelia were both in on the joke), but on your wedding day you should at least try to bring some serious respect to the table. MAFS thought that they were successful with Amelia and Bennett, but again, they were BOTH in on the joke - performance art! I think blonde got ghosted in the past because she drank too much. Perhaps all the participants were told to amp up the "weird" this season.

Does anyone know/remember the last time we saw Dayton (other than in flashbacks)? He seems to have escaped unscathed.

Gah, lots of talking with nothing being said! What a waste! They have absolutely no criteria to go by to judge whether these pairings will last or not. My dvr didn't pick up the matchmaking special, so I was glad to get an overview of the participants, but these "predictions" are utter nonsense and a waste of time.

I had second-hand embarrassment for these women who were clearly coached that this would be their chance at either making a favorable/lasting impression on the fellow or - even better - being the very first GOLDEN BACHELORETTE! Some things NEVER change! These ladies appear to have much going for them in terms of looks, intelligence and achievements. Stranger couples have been successful, and I hope there will be something new to experience in this iteration.

It was shockingly eye-opening when Yohan was talking with his friend at the gym complaining that another friend dated (married?) an American woman and she bought him a house and a car and all Yohan got was a dog. What a total joke this whole relationship is! The preview of next episode look interesting with them fighting over what Yohan can take when he leaves her. All Kimberly can see is her Bollywood wedding and TLC paycheck. That's really all that matters to her. The previews of the wedding do look pretty spectacular. Does everyone in that part of the world have weddings like that and if so, how do they afford them? The Mary and Brandan storyline is just plain depressing. Everything has already been said about Shakina/Sarper.

I mean, he has to spend a LOT of time in front of the mirror making those curls look "just so", right? And his remark about his sexy pecs and abs made me gasp out loud, coming from someone with the shoulders of a ten-year old.

I wonder if Sarper is/was a gigolo and that's why is tallywhacker tally is so asstronomical??? The entire apartment needs to be disinfected but it's always a good idea to start a new live-in relationship with a new mattress at least. In this case the entire bed needs to go, no doubt about it.

Cheyenne simply has no place on this show, and I will never watch her segments. And, WHY is Amber even shown in the credits??? The one and only time this season so far that her story line has been shown involved Gary and Leah. This show makes no sense.

Kody said something unintelligible in a subsequent talking head about "sending a message to the other wives" about something. My guess is that he and Robyn had a falling out and he was punishing her.

I'm glad this one is over. Along with all the planted materials, I was rolling my eyes about all the remarks to the effect of "If this doesn't work, we're never getting off this island". I'm positive that no matter what, they would've made it home at the end of 21 days.

Good question, I was wondering the same. It's almost as if these children no longer exist.

I'm sure that they can write off a lot of their travel expenses as business expense.

Maybe Christine could get a spinoff show where she counsels unhappy wives in polygamy on how to get out safely and with their own lives intact.

Thank you for making this point, it was just the push I needed to delete this B.S. off my dvr. These people are NOT worth my time! They are nothing but wannabe celebs and no matter how much they spend on their ridiculous parties, it's not gonna impress me one bit. In fact, it has the opposite effect, showing how stupid they are.
