    Has anyone been watching The Bachelor this season? If so, what are your thoughts? I admit I dislike Courtney, but can understand why Ben likes her. She makes him chase after her, which none of the other girls do.

    Yes , I'm guilty of watching that rubbish lol.  Court is soo nasty ,and in my opinion fairly unattractive.  But yes he will end up picking her because he knows what shes like in bed (skinny dipping party for two ).

    @elisa1128:  She is way more forward and flirtatious than the other girls. I guess Ben likes that. In my opinion, she's a girl you have a fling with but don't marry.

    I hate Courtney. She is a total looney. 

    I want to be bffs with Kacie. She's my favourite.

    Yes! I do, and I'm so grossed out by Courtney. She's totally just doing this to get her face out there so that her modeling career takes off. They'll get engaged and she'll dump him shortly after...

    At first I tried to give Courtney a chance, but when she makes comments while the other girls are leaving and waves her rose at them, rude. She justs actually reaks of desperation, always needing validation, always wanting a man who treats her like a goddess.

    I do like Kacie the best. She seems the most down to earth. I think Lindzi is so pretty, if she would just out a little color on her lips, come on girl they look white.I am also really suprised Rachel went home and the divorced lady stayed.

    Ugh! Courtney is so manipulative but if Ben can't see through that BS then I think he's on the show for the same shallow reasons.  He's kind of dull anyways so having a "hot model" through herself at him and make him chase after him is probably something he's never had.

    Ever since I've heard that he does end up getting engaged to Courtney at the end, I can barely stand to watch. She's so blatantly disrespectful right IN FRONT of him and he's too blind to see it. At least he does have the decency not to pick someone who is really in it for love only to destroy her life. I just feel like he's on the show to promote his winery, she's on the show to promote her modeling career, and they'll be done-zo shortly after the finale. Another Bachelor couple down the drain...

    I don't like Courtney, but I will admit that she's making the best use of her time with Ben. I don't mean that I agree with how she's spending her time with him; just that she's the only one really going for it.

    I agree that Kacie B is my favorite, and I want to be friends wit her in real life!

    I lost a lot of respect for Ben for how he acts with Courtney on the show. Even though I thought Jamie was kinda crazy in last week's episode, I wanted to slap him in the face for drooling over Courtney in a swimsuit while Jamie was supposed to be having her one-on-one time.

    In the end, I don't like Courtney, but the more I see of Ben, the more I dislike him. So maybe they really are a match?

    I don't usually watch those shows but I had the tv on and it was on. I couldn't turn it off. Damn!

    I saw on Facebook that people do not like Courtney. Seeing only one episode, I could see why.

    I can't stand Courtney for being so manipulative, but then crying like she always needs a man's validation in her life. But I'm sure just like Jake and Vienna, he'll think with the wrong head and pick her. I couldn't stand her after Emily tried to say sorry to her for misjudging her, and courtney just went off on a "I respect you, but I don't" tyrade.

    Kacie B is my fave, I think it will either be her or Lindzi for the bachelorette.

    Also, why do they keep on picking places where Ben desperately needs som anti-friz product for his hair?!

    Ben has to be the worst Bachelor ever. He's inarticulate, unattractive, and a complete jerk to every woman on this show except for Courtney. The two deserve each other.

    @MrsMaine:  I know! A few weeks ago he almost sent Emily home for bashing on his little princess, but this week princess calls all the girls vanilla, boring, mean, nasty and he protects her. He's had four. FOUR women tell him Courtney is a two faced biotch and he even admits she gets awfully defensive about it. I can't believe that he's that blind that he can't see what a wackjob she is.

    I'm glad I read the spoilers like 2 weeks into the season. Now I want him to pick her because the other girls are far too good for him, and I can't wait for her to dump him and take every cent from him.

    This show makes me ragey, I should stop watching!

    @Over the Moon:  ugh, so agree. I don't think he's attractive at all. And a lot of the one on one time is just painful, he cannot keep a convo going. Like whatever week Kacie told him about her eating disorder, he's all 'good. you opened up. that is good' instead of asking her about it and being compassionate.

    @MrsMaine:  My husband happened to catch that clip where she bashed other girls. He honestly thought she looked psycho.

    @hisgoosiegirl:  I agree! The other girls are definitely too good for him!

    I know the next Bachelorette has already been chosen, but I'd love to see someone like Lindzi get another shot with someone who isn't such an idiot.

    @hisgoosiegirl:  That gets me too. It's ok for Courtney to talk bad about everyone, but if they mention something to Ben about her, he threatens to send them home. There's such a double standard there that really irritates me.

    @MrsMeNow:  Ben needs a lesson on 'the crazy eyes' from Barney on HIMYM. At least that's what DH thinks.

    @hisgoosiegirl:  The eating disorder conversation was horrible! She said she had had an eating disorder and he said, "Really!" with no emotion, as if he wasn't even listening, or as if she had just told him she used to have a cat. Then to the camera he said, "Kacie's eating disorder has really made her who she is!" all upbeat like it was a good thing. No, Ben. Overcoming the eating disorder helped shape who she is today, but in any event it's not a net gain, sheesh.

    @Gemstone:  I agree, Lindzi would be a good choice or Emily, I really liked her and she seemed smart, interesting and easy to get along with--perfect to carry her own show.

    You know Ben is watching the episodes at home now and thinking to himself, "man I was an idiot. The girls tried to warn me about Courtney" I bet they are broken up by the "after the final rose" show

    Aww, poor Kacie B didn't get a rose. I had a feeling that would happen. Ben obviously thought she and her family were too conservative for him. Did anyone else watch the show tonight?

    Yup... I watched it... I was so disappointed that Kacie B didn't get a rose... But then my husband made a great point... This just saved her from even more heartache because they probably wouldn't have lasted either way... I just love Kacie!

    @Jenlon:  That's true. They didn't seem like a good match. She is so sweet and nice. She needs someone who can truly appreciate her.

    Kacie B doesn't get a rose?! Ben is an idiot. Kacie B is the sweetest person there! She has such an innocent idea of love.

    He's obviously not really doing this to find a wife.
