The Bachelor: On the Wings of Love---Corrie Sent Home

Well. This week's The Bachelor did not quite go the way rumors said it would. As in Ally did not get mad and leave due to Jake not dumping Vienna.

That Jake continues to keep Vienna, that turned out to be true. Ally seemed to handle this better than last week, at least according to what we saw.

Jake and his 5 girls were in San Francisco for their heavy duty dating. It's down to only 5 so I remember their names. Corrie, the Virgin, Ally the Brat, Gia the Joisey girl, Tenley the Divorcee and Vienna the Pinup Girl.

Jake seems to grow duller and duller the more we see of him. I hate hearing things like "I think you're amazing." That's dull.

When Corrie confessed to Jake her interpersonal experience status, I almost expected him to confess to the same. That would have made their time in the Fantasy Suite amusing. But that won't be happening, because Corrie was the one of the five to get sent home.

Speaking of home, that's where they go next week, an event so important and ominous Jake refers to it like this, "Hometown is a big deal." He must be a long time viewer. I can't see myself saying anything but, "The hometown dates are a big deal."

The previews of "Hometown" looks like some of these girls have scary families, with Gia's Jersey accented mom, sounding like a mafia queen, being the scariest. Vienna's dad seemed a bit thuggish. He'll probably scare Jake.

Now, if you saw the previews you saw again the incident where Jake is very upset at the latest horrible turn of events. And in the first time in the history of the sainted Rose Ceremony, there is no Rose Ceremony. And the rumor is that this is because there was no need, because Ally did not return to Los Angeles after the Hometown Date. I assume due to the Vienna issue. Or, maybe Ally's family was too much for Jake to bear.

I'll be watching.

The Bachelor: On the Wings of Love---Photos of Vienna Jake Might Not Approve Of

ABC's The Bachelor is one of the best train wreck type reality shows. The latest version, that being The Bachelor: Wings of Love, with earnest, up-right, up-tight, Boy Scout pilot, Jake Pavelka, being the seeker of a wife, is being particularly entertaining.

Jake has been the fastest potential wife dumper the show has ever seen. His choices seem perplexing at times.

One choice that perplexes the audience and all but one of the potential wives, is why does Jake keep giving Vienna Girardi those damn roses? The other girls have warned Jake that she's no good. Jake doesn't seem to care.

My sources tell me that what we are not seeing is how awful Vienna treats the other girls. As in epic bad. For some reason the producers choose to show us the animosity of the other girls, but not what is causing the animosity.

The rumor is that the reason it is being edited this way is that Vienna keeps staying around. How can they show her being a Bitch from Hell, if she's the one Jake picks in the end?

My sources also tell me that next week Ali, currently being edited to appear to be Jake's favorite, walks off the show, when Jake continues to keep Vienna.

Now, in the end, if Jake asks Vienna to be his Dearly Beloved, after taking Vienna home to meet his very religious mom and dad, and after their, likely, very chaste night in one of those notorious Fantasy Suites, well, Jake is in for a bit of a surprise.

Jake will be bringing home to Dallas, the Buckle of the Bible Belt, a young lady who has posed for some racy photos.

Now, to me. No big deal. But, somehow, I don't think Jake is the kind of guy who is going to see it that way. Maybe I'm wrong. Jake certainly seems to have no problem with taking most of his own clothes off for the camera.

Time will tell. I'm hoping it makes for some great Train Wreck TV.

The Bachelor: On The Wings of Love--Crazy Michelle Leaves Elizabeth No Rose Goes

I really don't think it is a decent thing to be doing when a Reality TV Show casts someone who is obviously mentally ill.

Sure, it can make for some entertaining, albeit, somewhat cringe producing, moments.

Producing those cringe producing moments on the current The Bachelor was this woman who apparently desperately wanted a husband, Michelle. It was sort of easy to see why Michelle has not had any luck snagging a man.

Because she's nuts.

A group of the girls went on a group date to Jon Lovitz's comedy club. Each of the girls got up on the stage and did a little comedy bit. Elizabeth, she being the one who shan't be kissed, yet teases relentlessly, did a raunchy comedy routine that was mostly bleeped. Chaste Elizabeth being raunchy confused Jake.

And then Michelle did her comedy bit, saying she was going to really impress Jake and blow the other girls out of the water. Trouble was, she wasn't funny, she just caused an awful lot of cringing, no laughter, just stares that sort of said "what the hell was that." Lovitz was pretty much left speechless.

But, it was to get worse for Michelle, later, at after the comedy show cocktail party.

Earlier, Michelle told us that when she finally kissed Jake that mountains would move, tongues would do battle, hair would be pulled, clothes would be ripped off.

So, at the cocktail party Michelle got Jake alone. And then after some very strange conversation, she asked if she could kiss him, just to see if there really was an attraction, or something like that.

I'm thinking, this can't go well, what with Michelle's belief that their first kiss will have Jake and her tearing off each other's clothes.

Well, thankfully they kept their clothes on, but the kiss went on and on and on and on, it was like those lips were shoved up against each other and then became glued.

When Jake and Michelle finally came unglued from the kiss, Michelle said something like, "Are you kidding me? Is that all you got?"

Jake looked totally perplexed. I don't blame him.

What followed was more Michelle words that made no sense. She said something about leaving. Jake said that's a good idea. Michelle then said something like this is so stupid. Jake led Michelle out and into a taxi.

He seemed relieved to get rid of her. I knew a woman once who's conversational pattern was very much like Michelle's. I didn't know her for long.

And then at the Rose Ceremony drinking party it was Elizabeth's turn to make Jake uncomfortable. She really has a bizarrely unnatural fixation on kissing. And she also was unable to comprehend what Jake was telling her, that being that she was coming off as a tease to him, just like she did to those of us watching her.

Both Michelle and Elizabeth were very good-looking. But a bit messed up internally, with Michelle being, by far, the most messed up, and the producers of The Bachelor should be ashamed for putting that woman on the show, with her obvious mental health issues.

The lady with the 7 year old for the win. I mean proposal.
