JenE4 January 4, 2022 Share January 4, 2022 (edited) Do Clayton’s parents live in a medieval church what with the gray stone, the stained-glass windows, the collage of crosses…and a pool table. Clayton is introducing himself but is telling us his name is Jesse. Oh, boy, I will never tell these two apart. Yeah, why did you get the lead with only 8 minutes of screen time?! Oh, he’s a football player. Full stop. That’s all you need to know—plus he’s tall, boring, and pliable. Now we’re seeing all 8 minutes of his screen time.

Matt had even less advance screen time because when Clare’s season got delayed, he became the Bachelor without ever courting the Bachelorette m mostly due to his friendship with with a previous fan fave. 1 1 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/125257-s26e01-week-1/#findComment-7208858

I think it had a lot to do with the filming schedule as they started filming before Michelle's season even aired. I would have loved Rodney, but since he made the final 4 I'm guessing they didn't want to spoil her season.
