My guilty pleasure. . .


So since I'm no longer getting my regular fix of Ali on the Bachelorette, I decided to give ABC's spin off show The Bachelor Pad a try. Now I was never an avid follower of the Bachelor franchise because finding love on tv seems near impossible. I mean let's face it, the Bachelor/Bachelorette shows have only had 2 lasting couples out of 20 seasons. (Not including Ali and Roberto who I am hoping stay together!) Not a very good track record.
Ah the Bachelor Pad. A place where 19 men and women get to compete for $250,000 and maybe find love. Or just control people. (Ahem, Elizabeth) So far this show seems to be like a twisted game of survivor except for the whole surviving in the wild part. And I have noticed a pattern that I am curious to see if it continues. Week 1 - Craig M. wins the twister challenge and is safe, he saves Jessie S. Week 2 - They both get sent home. Week 2 - Gia and Jonathan win the pie contest. Week 3 - They both get sent home. So Week 3 - Dave and Peyton win the kissing challenge. I wonder if the pattern will continue or if it just mere coincidence. I really hope Peyton does not go home because I like her. She is one of the decent girls on there.
On Wes and Gia's flirtation, or whatever was going on there, I do not know if I trust Wes. Granted, I did not watch Jillian's season of the Bachelorette, but apparently Wes was a villian and very smooth. I see he is still very suave because he captured the heart of Gia, the only one there with a boyfriend. Well now she is gone and I suppose I have to wait for the reunion show to find out if she is still with her boyfriend or if she is pursuing something with Wes. Or if Wes was just playing her the whole time.
Well can't wait til next week's episode. Here's hoping that Elizabeth goes home. :)
