It’s bach!  As you all know, The Bachelor is our favorite reality television show.  And while like Shakira’s music, every one is pretty much like the other one, we still love it (“Whenever, Whereever” it comes out).  So tonight is the big season premiere, and our DVR has been set for weeks.  We’re happy to see that blondes are back in the Bachelor / Bachelorette franchise (even though our man Jake “On the Wings of Love” Pavelka is a little much.  Hopefully he’ll make good TV.  Way to get “Find men in 2010″ of to a good, festive start!  What do you think – are you tuning in or tuning out?

Looks like eMum has her answer, as Jake is the new Bachelor!  We were pulling for Reid.  It’s better when the bachelor/ette is a little more sarcastic and a little less cheese. 

However, this sounds legit:  according to Pavelka’s parents, Jim and Sallie (cute names), “He likes a girl that is spontaneous.  The way he put it to me, he would like a girl that can work in the yard and then put on a pretty dress and go out to dinner.” Read more here.

The new season begins filming in a few days, and the show premieres in early 2010.  What do you think about the lastest man to find love on TV?

The night is upon us.  Who’s it going to be?  Ed or Kiptyn?  Give us the old beauty parlor banter answer.  Actually give three answers:  1) who is Jillian going to pick?  2) who should Jillian pick?  3) who would you pick?

We’re down to the final 4 on The Bachelorette!  Monday night was a huge surprise with the return of Ed; however, no family meeting could prove to be a deal breaker.  It seems like most seasons there is a clear favorite (or at least a clear best choice), but this season is tough to call.  We’re between Kiptyn and Ed – who do you think Jillian should pick?  Wes, Ed, Kiptyn, or Reid?

There are no words.  

This is more upsetting than Heidi Montag’s video premiere.  This is worse than Angela and Tony’s relationship ruining Who’s The Boss.  This is more random than Marissa dying on The O.C.  This is a worse decision than Steven hitting a girl on The Real World.  This is more disappointing than than the Vanessa / Nate storyline on Gossip Girl.  This is more disturbing than Tyra Banks.  The only man in America that can make Justin Bobby look kind of cute, and DeAnna picked him…over Jason. Jesse??  JESSE?
