Bachelor In Paradise 2018

...I have no idea either reepbot... he just has no personality whatsoever so all that I can think of is that the Producers may have pushed them in that direction to do so... he has no 'charisma'... he has no 'good looks'... he has absolutely nothing going for him whatsoever at all that I can see at least... so... I'm looking at the Producers having their grubby fingers in the pie to be honest... cheers.

and plus he probably likes nightclubs.

the thing with Jake is - during the Georgia season he came across really well

what's turned us against him?

not sure if he deserves the backlash he's been getting especially if its on behalf of "poor hard done by Florence" who is well & truly able to look after herself and her own interests ;)

...I think that being totally devoid of any personality whatsoever was Jake's downfall crimmy... he has given us as viewers nothing at all to grasp onto to invest in him at all... he was there for the holiday and the airtime exposure and that was it... he wasn't bothered... in the end... neither were most of us as viewers... you get what you dish out in return when you come to Jake and that's what has happened methinks!... cheers.

I was actually willing to be won over by Jake this season, but it just didn't happen. I was thinking that after the comments by Tara and Flo, he'd go out of his way to prove he wasn't like that, but he either doesn't care or we weren't shown it. So instead we just got a really bland, kind of wishy-washy romance where all we saw was kissing, and all we learned about him was that he doesn't like talking. He didn't fight to prove to the audience that he is worth caring about. Which is his prerogative if he was just there for a free holiday and doesn't care what we think. So yeah, he's not bad, just kind of nothing.

...ha!... I just read this immediately after my last post above... a great summation there Meglos... and I agree with your points too... cheers.

he never really seemed to change, like with the main couples you see the relationships developing, but it took some production interference to get something interesting from jake and megan. and i think that came down to the scowl.

it was pretty telling that Megan said they hadn't really share any intelligent <might have been deep? or serious? can't remember - last night was pretty much a snooze fest so I wasn't 100% engaged> conversation ...
takes two to make a conversation though - didn't see her trying to initiate any
(remember Sophie trying to talk to Apollo and all he could talk about was the breadsticks?!) O_O

...I think that Megan saying straight to the camera "I don't love him" couldn't be anymore blunter... it obviously never was a 'romance' to start with... they remind me of two Koalas clinging to the last unburned Gum Tree after a bushfire... they are both there to survive only... no other reason... the "romance-that-never-was of the Century"... cheers.

Meglos said:
Surely if this season was a test run to see if Lisa was interesting, there can be no doubt about the answer.

Yeah, we can't go from Sophie to Lisa. We just can't.

Actually, on thinking about the Lisa conundrum, she has managed to prove her ability to express interest and mack on with dudes completely void of personality so maybe that works in her favour ie. she'll be up for it with anyone. Well, anyone except Michael.

...as much as I really liked Lisa... no... just... no!... get a newcomer that we have never seen before... in fact... all new faces that we have never seen before... please!... cheers.

Grant proposes then makes a run for it
Megan tells Jake he's only good for sex and she fancies Florence....but lets do beach shots for bucks
Jarrod gives Keira apromise ring because he is an old fashioned gentleman who can't propose until they do family meets, then they will marry in the vineyard
Sam has to propose as Tara has a swag of contracts for them to sign, first we get the televised wedding, then she wants a lame RTV show

...haha!... you should become a show Producer kxk... you seem to have a lot more ideas than they do lol!... cheers.

I wish they’d go back to having ‘clean skins’ as the Bachelor / Bachelorette so we are getting to know them at the same time we’re getting to know the ‘candidates for luuurve’
None of the returnies have been that great - it was all downhill after they had Sam Frost back ...
much as we thought Sophie was entertaining - the end result was bs

I dont think Lisa would be all that interesting ...

...^^^^... this!... cheers.
