  • ‘The Bachelorette’ Finale: Erupting Volcanoes and a Proposal

    The show opens with Jillian talking to the camera, smiling and saying, “I’ve probably done everything I swore I’d never do.”   Can you elaborate on that?   Anyway, Ed is up first, and he says he’s in love with her. It’s time to meet the family! Gramma says Ed is terrifically good looking, and…

  • Two Bachelors Bite the Dust

    The night begins with the host announcing that Jillian has already left for Vancouver, and tells the boys to pack their bags, as they’re all going to the big BC city. Sweet! It takes two minutes for a 2010 Olympic games plug … not bad. Jillian meets the boys at the Fairmont downtown (we love…

  • ‘The Bachelorette’ Goes Old School With the Harlem Globetrotters

    A few nice things happened in the second episode of "The Bachelorette."   Jillian more or less abstained from saying “cool” and “totally,” which brings Jillian back on our side (good thing), but at the same time brings our drinking game to a grinding halt (bad thing — damn it!).   Two, it took a…
