I think they’re setting up Maria, planting all of those Maria fan signs and the cheering. Give me someone bland and pretty like Lexi or Daisy, and let the contestants shine (or implode). I can’t handle any more Maria.
-
To be fair, Maria is shutting down Jess talking right now—multiple times. But, wow, everyone is strongly either pro-Maria or anti-Maria. I can’t even recall a season where there was a dynamic like this. There might be one villain who happens to have a couple of cronies, with accusations thrown around. But I can’t recall ever seeing something like this in which the entire cast is heated and split fairly evenly. These people are activated.

Leah saying she feels gaslit while being the gaslighter insisting Maria said FU while it was the cake thrower who said it. And now she’s crying backstage—and they’re hugging?! Now I feel gaslit!

The women tell some things.

As someone who was up on all of the off-show, online controversy with the girlfriends/fiancee/Megan Fox, etc., it was interesting to watch with my husband who had no idea of what they were talking about and spent the majority of the reunion utterly confused. I had to explain to him that all of this was a really big deal online and that viewers would be glad that the “controversies” were addressed. That being said, they spent way too much time dragging Sarah Anne and Jeremy—especially since they then cut to Bliss and whatshisname at their baby shower, even though he also switched partners halfway through the “process.” (Granted, I get that his original fiancé was bitchiness personified and wanted nothing to do with him.) But it’s certainly not unprecedented for someone to realize they made a mistake. Some other woman switched out her man last season? The season before? I can’t keep track of this show. My point is, it’s happened before without needing to spend 25 minutes straight plus more comments throughout the show completely dragging them. The fact that they’re living together a year later shows that Sarah Anne was the right choice for him. Now, maybe if Laura was a nicer person I could jump on the outrage bandwagon on her behalf, but she was a mean girl who not only treated Jeremy rudely, but that whole bean dip debacle that is “sexual assault lite”! Now don’t get me wrong, I’m not team Jeremy here—but I’m also not team Laura, and they went so far with the anti-Jeremy/Sarah Anne here that it pushed me to their side that they didn’t deserve all that. On a more bittersweet note, I’m glad to see that Clay has really been working on himself. You could still see a lot of love between him and AD. I hope when he’s really ready, if she hasn’t yet found someone else, he can win her back. Can you imagine how lucky their kids would be having both of their mothers as grandmothers? I want to spend the holidays with Mama Clay and Mama AD.

I think Sutton just had a panic attack over the thought of Kathy and Kyle ganging up on her. Every symptom she had = panic attack. I’ve been sitting in a hospital room with my kid all week, so by the Annemarie school of medicine, I’m qualified to make this diagnosis.

S17.E21: Climbing Down From Decision Day
JenE4 replied to TwirlyGirly's topic in Married At First Sight
Chloe just said on the after party she wants 7,247 animals—correcting Keisha saying 700 alpacas. I hope this is a joke—or maybe she somehow recalls the exact number of animals at the farm they visited. But if she’s really going through life saying she precisely needs 5 foster kids and 7,247 animals, I need to get to the root of this number. So odd. wow. The second half of the after party with Cam and Becca was really juicy! I have to say, out of all of these people, I believe Cameron. He seems to be the only one who doesn’t care about “optics.” He cares so little about how he comes off on TV that he completely stopped filming. I mean, granted, he had more important things to worry about. But his words and delivery are specific. He’s not just throwing around the three buzzwords —even though I think he invented “optics” before Clare had the girls commandeer it. And Clare did seem to have great glee in getting everyone all worked up. -
S17.E21: Climbing Down From Decision Day

What has happened to Chloe that she wants to love and care for all the wounded animals and children?!? Micheal very reasonably says, I’m on board with your dream as long as it’s two children and a handful of animals, as I don’t feel like I can give my best to care for more than that. And she looks at him like he just let her non-existent children and animals die in the streets. Chloe then doubles down that her five-at-a-time foster children will each need their own bedroom. Who is paying for this 6-bedroom farmhouse?!?! Doesn’t she have some type of a non-profit job? Michael is a project manager. She goes on and on about how healthy their relationship is, but she doesn’t seem willing to compromise at all on this very extreme dream of hers. Meanwhile Michael seems very willing to say I never thought about fostering or having an animal sanctuary but I will do a manageable version of that dream for you. Why isn’t that enough? Then she’s shocked that he “doesn’t have enough information” to say yes tomorrow. There’s definitely something missing there that Chloe is not seeing the disconnect that she’s not going to get 500-1000 wounded animals, five foster children (who will each have their own challenges that will take a lot of care and attention), and Michael. At this rate, it sounds like she wants to start one of those ranches for wayward children. Maybe she should start by going to work for one. -
The women from The Golden Bachelor were very popular. I think the ratings for Golden Bachelor were higher than regular Bachelor/ette. So the show is trying to cash in on the popularity of these ladies by featuring them—and maybe some of that older demographic might tune in to see them. The problem is, the more we see them, such as here and featured prominently in Gerry and Theresa’s wedding special, the novelty of them is kind of wearing off. Plus, I think what made them seem fun and engaging was the Golden Girls aspect of them all genuinely having a good time together in the house. When they’re just 1:1, the pizzazz is gone. Leslie has always been a sad sack. Sandra was too much with the “men like sex” talk, as if this was novel and sage advice. And the other one I forgot her name, is just too me-me-me the way she officiated G&T’s wedding and half of what she said was all about herself.

Alli doesn’t like Jo because she moved in with Schwartz like a minute after he and Katie got divorced. Um…kind of like you and James 6 weeks after he and Raquel ended their engagement. But, holy smokes, what is wrong with Jo?’?! All of these faces and gestures and loud-ass comments, she seems like she’d fit in with that group of redneck/blue-collar comics that were big in the 90s. Total Larry the Cable Guy vibes, with a little Jim Carey/Mike myers mugging thrown in. MVP once again to Anne, the poor assistant in the Sandoval-Maddix household who, upon hearing that Sandvoval was going to emote piped up, in private, right? How many rants on both sides has this woman had to endure? Set those boundaries, Anne!

Wow. That was some really bad frankenbiting of Joey’s words on the jungle couch with Daisy. Didn’t show him speaking at all and every word was plucked from different conversations and tone and cadence didn’t match at all. Joey is giving Daisy his sob story at this dinner. Everything is all topsy-turvey. Oh, no, now Daisy is crying worrying about not getting chosen. We’re 3-for-3…actually, 4, as Joey also has this fear. Wait, Joey is also telling Daisy that he’s been falling in love with her for a while?! Oh, no. His feelings don’t seem as genuine here. He’s very formal addressing feelings with Daisy and Rachel. He was gushing with Kelsey! Oh, he’s a bit more gushy in the morning with Daisy. At any rate, good-bye, Rachel! Kelsey is pulling a Maria?! I’m insecure so it’s now or never so you don’t hurt me more. This did not work out for Maria. However, Joey actually does love Kelsey, so now he”s spiraling worrying about Kelsey leaving him, so it might work out better for her.

Joey is still making Kelsey jump off a high boat into the water after his last date nearly lost the bottom half of her face in a bottomless sea cave. Just climb off the ladder! They made Kelsey do a voiceover in her green dress with 80s style curly hair. This was not filmed during/after this date. Her hair keeps changing in that voiceover, so they filmed at least 2 if not more different occasions. I guess it could be this next morning—though even the robe voiceovers kept changing the hair! I think she’s the one and got extra takes. She’s happiest and loviest with the curly hair that could be styled by a professional for the final rose ceremony day. Joey is falling in love with Kelsey for a long time! Let’s hope he doesn’t say the same to Daisy, as has somehow become status quo in recent seasons. But geez, now these two are soooo in love that…he might choose Daisy?!? How’s he supposed to have a date with Daisy now?!

Can you imagine breaking your face off and then likely not getting a rose, since Joey seems to be really into Kelsey and Daisy. (I’m behind on the show so my comments won’t line up until I hit enough commercials to FF.) i think Rachel’s fingers match the Joey, we need to talk letter—pink nails, darker skin tone. Unless someone else comes back, Daisy and Kelsey are too pale ETA: Kelsey also has pink nails…and a tan! Lol. I’m still going with Rachel. She was super emotional that whole date.

Joey’s fantasy suites week turns into a nightmare as he receives an ominous missive.

I think viewers are making a bit of a leap here that Emily looooooves one-night stands and is likely a drug-addicted hooker. She has had one-night stands because…no one has ever called her back for a second date! That just makes them one-night stands by default. Maybe in her mind each experience was the beginning of a relationship that wasn’t. I think she’s just gets drunk a lot. I think what would “ruin” her is probably the story Brennan told on the After Party about her being so drunk that she pulled down the shower curtain while he was taking a shower, tried to sexually assault him and smother him to death, which was really just her falling asleep/passing out on top of him trying to cuddle. We heard this weeks ago, but that was recorded long after filming. Emily went on that show trying to throw Brennan under the bus, so he came on the After Show doing the same—here’s the real Emily off camera. Lol. We were posting at the same time. I’m so glad someone else remembers this and agrees with me that this is most likely what Brennan was “protecting her” over.
