Armchair Critic

Color me skeptical

I wonder if he was verbally abusive to his wife for gaining weight? Was he too cheap to pay for the hospital so they waited too long to bring her in? The woman he chooses now looks like a fool for winning a booby prize. Now when I see the promo shot of Gerry for the show he just looks smug to me and not attractive. Nick Viall must feel a little vindicated after people went after him so hard for his story of Gerry cheating. I'll show myself out again....

No wonder the last 3 women he chose were vulnerable types, he wants a woman he can fool.

Sounds like his wife's death was sudden, yet he was dating a woman 1 month later. You would think he would still be in shock.

When he shared the picture of himself on the motorcycle wearing a Hooters t-shirt I got a bad vibe from him. Since he sounds like a cheapskate maybe Theresa being financially savvy was actually the appeal as others here have said.

Since we only have one thread for this show, I am posting social media stuff here too. Sometimes I wish I didn't know behind the scenes stuff so I could believe in the fairy tale. ;) But every day on my Facebook feed Golden Bachelor stories pop up, I guess they know my algorithm. Theresa has been busted hitting "like" on bad comments about Kathy and other women there. If Gerry is too stupid to see through her and ends up choosing her, then he deserves what he gets. I do think this fame has gone to his head so good luck to the woman he picks.

Speaking of Leslie wanting to be on Dancing With The Stars...hmmm... she has them tagged on her Instagram picture: https://www.instagram.com/p/C0AI2hKJaC3/?utm_source=ig_web_copy_link&igshid=NTYzOWQzNmJjMA== Also check out her old aerobics performance: https://www.instagram.com/reel/Cz-AdUas7N8/?utm_source=ig_web_copy_link&igshid=NTYzOWQzNmJjMA==

If they have the one who doesn't get chosen as the Golden Bachelorette I would not be as interested, I would rather more of the women come back and they have a dating show like Bachelor In Paradise (but more classy).

It will be interesting to see if he can go back to a more quiet life with just one woman out of the spotlight, he has really seemed to enjoy all the attention.

It took me a minute to recognize Joe Keery. He and Hamm are playing some assholes. To be honest, after watching two shows that Juno Temple was in I was getting a bit tired of her. But I am liking her character here. I too wonder if she was already pregnant when she met her husband, I can't imagine having to keep the chipper fake accent up for the rest of her life in Minnesota. No wonder she was concerned about her fingerprints getting out. The female cop's golfer husband was kind of funny but rooting for her to dump him. Nice to see Jennifer Jason Leigh and Dave Foley too.

I have heard "the most shocking" hype on The Bachelor franchise a few times, so the finale may not be anything actually shocking. I wonder if Gerry wants Leslie but when Leslie and Theresa meet his family they push for Theresa so he chooses her? Leslie would love to be on Dancing With The Stars and I think Gerry is enjoying the spotlight so I could see him doing it too.

People are bummed the show isn't on this week but I know that we will have football on all day Thanksgiving (I am not into football but it's a tradition). My daughter and I may end up watching Leo on Netflix, Adam Sandler voices a lizard and it looks really cute. I have been enjoying this show more than I thought I would, and it's fun talking about it here so I kind of hate to see it end.

Putting it in Spoilers to be safe even though it happened years ago

Gerry’s daughters are a little frumpy, my guess is that they may favor Theresa over sexy Leslie.

What in the body suit hell was Theresa wearing at the Fantasy Suite? A one piece isn’t practical for sexy times either.

Susan was married to Major League Baseball player Dickie Noles so she must be used to being with somebody kind of famous.

A slim figure and long blonde hair goes a long way with some men. ;) When I see her modeling clothes in her videos I am a bit envious of her slender figure and long legs and how she looks in clothes. But no to the frozen face.

Joan has been a favorite for many, she is putting out videos on social media and while she is a beautiful woman I don't find her interesting. I agree about Ellen being more real, but doubt they will go with her.

I assume Gerry likes boating and jet skiing? I read he is a regular at a restaurant there, but that may no longer be relevant if he moved to a new place with his pick. If I was his daughter I would rather he choose Theresa than one of Prince's old groupies. ;) I kid, I kid... at least I would hope his pick would know enough to be nice to the family.

He should "knock boots" (as Gerry called it) with Leslie in the Fantasy Suite and get it out of his system and then pick Theresa. I'll show myself out again....

So (quoting Gerry with the so) now Gerry needs to decide does he want the one who makes his pants dance or does he choose the one with goo goo eyes who is more "traditional" and will do whatever HE wants.

No show on Thanksgiving I assume

I am opening up a can of worms here but did anybody else hear the gossip about Gerry (don't know if it true) that was on Nick Viall's (former Bachelor) podcast? It made it sound like Gerry does not have impulse control.

Don't fall forward Gerry you might fall into Faith's boobs and not find your way out

Oh geesh, maybe I am too stubborn but I wouldn't give him the satisfaction of all that sobbing over him if I was Faith.
