The Bachelorette, Season 10: Long Hair, Don't Care


Wow! Did you all enjoy last night? Andi made it painstakingly obvious that she's not into long hair. Dylan flew under the radar with his locks of love, but Andi was quick to get rid of Steven, Mike, and Jason. 

Steven
Mike
Jason










I was actually sad to see Steven go home because I though he had a lot of potential as Andi's "great love". Mike was a tool, and Jason was just awkward. He's a doctor, but he said that he didn't have a lot to go home to as he drudged down the driveway. Really? You have a pretty fantastic job, and it sounds like you have a wonderful family that you could not forsake at home. Maybe a spontaneous trip to Alaska and a little Top Gun will make him feel better.

With that opening line, I'm sad that we don't get to see more of Emil (it's pronounced anal with an 'm'). I'm sure he would have been good for some serious points. 

Can we please discuss Josh B. for a minute? 



For reals, this guy needs some help. I tried to find a video of his exit interview, but no one has posted that one yet. This guy sounds like he has a miserable life. He's embarrassed to be on the show, he has nothing positive to say, and, well...who wants to share all of those emotions with someone like that?! His life pretty much sucks. Maybe a good James Bond movie will cheer him up.

I'm impressed with my team of bachelors so far. Andi mentioned that Man's Man Josh M. was totally her type, Farmer Chris is everything a sweet and adorable farm boy should be, Milk and Cookies Marquel planned an amazing cookie-tasting party (complete with milk and all), Crossfire Carl sort of flew under the radar, and it looks like Cocky Cody will rack up as many points as I anticipated. 

Here’s how the points went down last night.
  • Andrew: 25 points
    • Getting the rose to stay on another week (25)
  • Bradley: 25 points
    • Getting the rose to stay on another week (25)
    • Note: he did sing opera but not for Andi…yet.
  • Brett: 30 points
    • Giving the Bachelorette a gift (the stolen hotel lamp) (5)

  • Tasos: 30 points

I can tell by your picks that no one cheated while choosing their teams. Some of you are already 2 bachelors down, and only one team drafted Nick V., recipient of the first impression rose. I can't wait to show you all what I've got planned for this season! 

I'll have more stats about our league standings for y'all tomorrow. I'm so glad that all y'all are participating with me in this here league. 

xoxo,
Kristen
