Ew. I do not like Kaitlyn and Shawn. 

Ugh show. Do not make me like Nick. I was really hoping to sit this season out.

**who am I kidding....1. I won't sit this season out try as I might, and 2. Nick will give me the heebie jeebies by the eleventh minute tonight making me not like him once again ;)**

What has Kaitlyn been doing? She does not look great right now!  Especially considering there were two moms of tiny babies in the mix, both of whom looked a lot healthierand less puffy! Shawn also doesnt look fabulous - I always though he looked a bit like a busted Ryan Gosling... but in that clip he just looked...busted.  The producers must really hate these two to give them such bad lighting!

Anyone know anything about Corinne's multimillion dollar business?That sounds so shady to me... liek that phrase was just implanted in her vocabulary without a lot behind it?

Just from the looks of things, I would say that whatever her business is, she feels free to call it a "multi-million dollar business" because her gross sales revenue broke the one million mark, and she considers anything above the 1 million mark to be part of a second million, therefore allowing her to say "multi" million. I say good for her. After all, running your own business is a nice accomplishment. But methinks she's exaggerating more than a bit.

Well, in the beginning of the show, it was pretty clear that her "own business"  was that she worked for her father's business and was going to take it over. 

I enjoyed the show -  I need to be reminded of who is who.   The clips looked interesting, I'm looking forward to the season.  and the "will Nick be the first bachelor to be rejected?"  is intriguing.   (off to find some spoilers)

I DVRed this episode but it was a lot of filler.

I watched it to see the past couples. Kaitlyn and Shawn, he has the most unfortunate hairstyles. Carly and Evan seem happy, nice that she gets along with his 3 sons. Ben and Lauren...yawn. Didn't know Ashley and Desiree just had babies. Wonder why they didn't show Emily? Maybe because she didn't marry somebody from the show.

I wasn't too impressed with any of the women they showed for Nick, hope they gave him some decent candidates.

Yep, and I wish we hadn't had that brief glimpse of her father, because now when she's talking about how great she is in the sack and breaking down Nick's bedroom door to jump him -- I'm going to be picturing her father watching and cringing.

I like to pretend these people don't have living parents.

lol... I cannot believe girlfriend said with a straight face on national television that her vagina, oh sorry, her vagine, is platinum. Actually, yes I can. The preview made her seem like she's just perpetually horny with all those antics.

And Corrine is already my least favorite fame whore this show has ever had, and that is quite an accomplishment.

Love Desiree and so happy to see her happy. Still kinda loving Evan and Carly. Still feeling kinda weird about it. haha

WTF happened to Shawn? He was never the hottest guy but he looked like crap!!!! Kaitlyn isn't looking so hot either. They look like they just finished making some homemade internet porn and forgot they had to go to this interview. Yikes!

I love Nick and am very excited about this season. If anyone can break the tired old mold this show has fallen into I think it's him. Sadly, I'm not terribly excited about this crop of girls.

Rachel kind of reminded me of Robin Givens. 

The little boy saying this would be the most dramatic season in history was cute.

The past couples introducing themselves was silly. "I'm Ben Higgins...I was the bachelor on Ben Higgins' season." 

Are they required to cast a virgin every season?

Multi-million dollar/platinum vagine 'ette must stay for as long as possible...and multiple seasons of Paradise.

Bring on the train wreck!

I tuned in at the half way mark and I only saw a scene where she was at a desk and her dad came in. It looked clear that whatever business this was, it was run from their home. Of course that alone doesn't mean it can't be a successful business, far from it, but it is also far from the image of a giant conglomerate she is trying to portray.

I am excited for this season so stopped reading spoilers. Can anyone tell if it's Platinum Twat who smacks him in the face during the preview? Love how Danielle Lo (Me So Horny) looks down and to the side when she gives the standard " I can see myself falling in love with you" she's a bad liar.

Only if she's willing to talk about it non stop.  Virgin or sex panther, they're equally creepy because they're both telling us all about their vazheens. I wonder what precious metal the virgin one is?

Me too.  They must have him back for BiP this year.

I'll be picturing anyone who works with her in a business capacity not taking her seriously as a business woman ever again.

Then they'd have to own up to watching The Bachelor, which loses a person some moral high ground.

Okay I just saw a screenshot I think it's the unemployed nurse who slaps him. This is going to be good!

From the show' s track record, though, it could be a group date where they're acting out a scene.  We've been tricked before.

OK, FFF girl (faith family football) looked trashy, and desperate to get out of Hoxie or Moxie or wherever. Too much makeup.

And the girl with her religious celibacy is NOT right for Nick, who fell in love with Andi and Kaitlyn, two sophisticated city women who aren't "waiting." Why would she go for Nick? It's nonsense. And all she talks about is sex, oh joy. "God loves sex!" She needed a Shawn or even a Chris type. (Plus, she's not very pretty.)

Speaking of, the millionaire's spawn Corinne, who also isn't that cute, is clearly a brat, and I am expecting her to be a villainesse. I hope Nick pitches her out sooner rather than later. And hey,, girl, just because daddy lets you play "office" doesn't make you a businesswoman of note!

I like the lawyer lady -- she seems like Nick's type. And maybe the Canadian chick from Vancouver, who met Daniel.

I loved seeing Carly and Evan!!! I am so rooting for them. Their love seemed so awkward and genuine on the beach this past summer. 

I also liked seeing Chris and Desiree. I knew it was real love at the time, but so many people thought she was "settling" because of her fixation on Brooke (I think that was his name.) I saw that she finally recognized the guy in front of her as a stellar choice once Brooke was out of the picture. Or maybe I'm just a cornball romantic.

I can't stand Lauren (of Ben and Lauren) anymore. Her voice is like nails on a chalkboard! So much vocal fry.

I agree on Lauren, but not on the why.  Vocal fry doesnt bug me a bit.  Its the total and utter vapidity.  She is so empty. 

She hasn't bugged me as much on Ben's season's as she did in this episode, and I'm pretty sure the reason for that is her new teeth. They're even worse than Emily Maynard's.

There's a huge difference between watching it and being on it behaving like an idiot.

I don't think you'd necessarily have to watch, word does spread.  If the local papers ran any articles stating she was even on the show, that might turn some people off.

I don't know what it says about this season, but at one point I drifted off while watching this episode; when I looked up again, I thought I was still watching the show.  It took me a while to realise I was actually watching a commercial for hand lotion.  Doesn't bode well, really.

Not impressed with any of the women so far.  Kinda rough.  No one is impressing me. 

The best part was when Daniel appeared.  Love him!  Love people with personality.  These women just seem kind of lacking in any personality.
