Take the show off air. Or start betting on how many of the guys she actually screws and make her reveil the # at the end of the show. Then "the best" wins.

BRING BENTLEY BACK FOR EVERY SHOW

Search: Bentley Apologists

Bentley is a joke! How he ever got on the show is rediculous!
Also, while I have the chance to comment I feel there way to much "Drinking" Alchohol on this show!!!

"The casts of these shows are primarily made up of very white guys who have a romance novel model look about them. If hot women really fall for the Kevin James type as those movies have lead us to believe, let's get some plus-sized guys."

Do they cast The Bachelor with plus-sized women? I tend to doubt it, but I don't bother to watch, so I have no idea.

The only idea on here that makes any sense at all is the comment that the show should be ended. I don't hate reality TV. I watch a lot of it. I just find this shit unwatchable. To think, people actually claim that gay marriage would damage the "sanctity" of marriage, while this kind of crap has been on the air for years.

Bentley is the only reason I watch this show. I find him fascinating. If he's selling, I'm buying!

How about just one way to fix it.
Cancel it.

But Shelly, pretty much every single person who has ever been on these shows has been a ridiculous joke.
The point is at least make them interesting and possibly diverse ridiculous jokes. Lord knows the cookie cutter guys left now could put a world at war to sleep.
And for that matter the thought of having to deal with pretending to love some complete lame idiot for national tv exposure? Hell, I'd have to be half crocked all the time myself.

Let's make a rule on all reality shows, old contestants are not brought back! That goes for Survivor, Big Brother, etc. There's enough people out there that would love to be contestants on these shows that we shouldn't have to watch repeats!

I'd bet that the bachelor/bachelorette indicates at least a racial preference at the start. So this may not be a reflection of the network, but of the participants.

I never understood how those polite men could just stand around while Ashley cried endlessly for that ass Bentley. Those men should have walked out en mass, disgusted with Ashley for wasting their time.

Nice blog. The show is a disaster and bringing back former contestants just makes it worse. I still find it mind-boggling that someone like Ashley - who HAS to be relatively intelligent since she made it into one of the best dental schools in the country - has the emotional maturity of a teenager. And how on earth did she get so emotionally attached to that Bentley character in such a brief period of time? My lord.....The other guys should have bolted while they could still maintain what is left of their dignity.

Put Charlie Sheen on the show, he'll pick the right goddess. & maybe the show will get some ratings.
Or just cancel the stupid show.

I would agree that this Bachelorette is the most boring.
I do like Emily though she is a real southern belle. Why not bring Bristol Palin on and have th showm originate from the Aleutian islands.

I enjoy the show, if you dont like it dont watch. Yes bring some new women in, Ali, Black haired girl who didnt marry her pick, but another Batchelor contestant, were the best and made the show very fun to watch

Don't allow anyone on who has children. This is not fair to the kid(s)!

I love Chris Harrison. He is the only reason we still watch. But Ashley? Really? Seriously? Why?

This show is one of the funniest on tv.Everything is so fake,but whats with this Ashley? She reminds me of Jr high.

worst year ever
Ashley is a joke, BENTLEY OMG!!!
going all over the world (when we need money spent in America)
does not even help her inept personality..pity any husband

I haven't watched one of these shows in a very long time. I have watched 1 complete series of the "Bachelor." I don't understand Bentley at all. Didn't Ashley see the statements in between episodes about how he didn't have feelings really for her and he just didn't feel anything for her? And then when he was with her he acted as though he really cared for her? Really?? She was already warned about him to begin with. Why would she even considering getting close to him in the first place? Doesn't at all make sense to me. I really don't know whether this is true or fake. She is very emotional on the show. And, she seems very sincere. I could never go on there and act like I was having such a relationship with all those men. Especially kissing all of them. The only show I have watched wasn't like this one at all. And who in the world would get down on their knees and propose only after 6 weeks? A lot of them act like they are really falling in love with her. Too fast for me. JP is my favorite even if he shows a lot of signs of jealousy which could be a potential problem. I still don't understand why all the guys hated Ryan. I could tell he has an "A" type personality and very assertive and aggressive. He was very good looking, but JP is too. I have been very hooked on this show for some reason. Most everything said here about the show and the individuals are negative. There must be something wrong with me! hehehe I hate the waiting!!!

Even if they trained Emily not to say "you know" every sentence, she is boring. Hope they don't bring her on as the the next one, Ashley has been bad enough. Get some new blood.

I hate that show! Just happened to turn it on awhile back - that Ashley is nauseating! I want to slap her - crying in bed about that goofy Bently! The guy is a dufus! Why would you cry over a dude you hardly know who gives a....about you! Stupid show!!

I came across sweet home alabama on cmt, so much better

whoah this blog is excellent i love reading your articles

I must say, you took the words right out of my mouth. Excellent article!

A few comments:

I agree with what you said about ''here for the right reasons''. Okay sure, they want to find love.. but seriously sometimes.. okay MOST of the time they overdo which leads people questioning whether they are real feelings or not.

I don't think an audience will ever have a say in it coz it is TECHNICALLY the person find their love and a 1m viewers can't affect that.

And also, I love Emily on Brad's season, they were a very cute and perfect couple, in the beginning itself, I knew Brad was madly in love with her... sad they broke up but seriously? Her as the bachelorette... she's so... reserved... idk... hopefully it won't be a boring season.
