I think it was about 12 years ago when reality tv first started, and before I watched any of it I pretty much decided it wasn't for me. I didn't see the first Survivor, but everyone was talking about it so much that when they re-ran it I watched and I was hooked. I didn't see the first American Idol either, but have tuned in for at least part of most every season since. And I held out much longer for the Bachelor and Bachelorette Series. I've only seen a couple of seasons all the way through. But it's kind of like seeing a couple of police cars on the side of the road--you gotta look to see if you can see something.
So...last season, The Bachelorette--Ashley, Ben and what's his name--and she picks what's his name. I kinda thought Ben was a bit sappy but cute and so was Ashley, perfect couple right? He had no idea that he would not be chosen. And I really liked that he got a bit angry--no sugar coating allowed. So I was looking forward to this season of the Bachelor. And I must admit that Ben does seem more interesting even witty in some of his comments. But still a little clueless with regard to his choices. Unless...do you think maybe they force these guys to choose at least 2 or 3 totally inappropiate women just to create conflict on the show?
Now Steve. I put Mobbed on my DVR because I like Howie Mandel, have since St. Elsewhere. So when I watched the latest episode I absolutely fell in love with Steve--five year phone relationship with a girl who likes bad boys with tatoos and she says yes!!! Maybe I was tired and stressed from a difficult day at work, but I must admit I started to tear up a bit when they got to the Journey song. There's sappy and then there's sappy and you never know what's gonna make you cry. How is that for a song title?
