The Bachelor 2018

Sad. Blair gone, Vanessa gone, who's left to call out the mean girls on their bs? I guess there's still Shannon.
 
Who's the centre of the drama in the preview of the next episode? The one who was taking off her dress/microphone?

Vanessa's realness from Instagram:

I’m going to be extremely blunt “I will never ever put someone on a pedestal who hasn’t earned the right to be there”. My approach was a wild card, you’re used to watching women automatically fall for The Bachelor and scramble to profess their feelings, vying to be the last one standing to claim their (man) prize. Obviously I was a different kind of woman thrown into the mix this season. I was 100% true to myself, did not compromise my morals and values, get caught up in “clickyness” or group dynamics that do not interest me. I own the resting bitch face look, my sense of humour is very dry, sarcastic and a little bit cheeky. My attitude is for lack of a better statement “I give zero fucks” I simply don’t feel the need to justify myself to everybody, am very aware I’m “different”, always have been and I’m totally comfortable and ok with this fact because I know who I am, can back myself, know my value and worth and no one is going to take that from me. When entering this experience I was looking for someone funny and genuine. A man who’s sincerity I don’t have to question and who doesn’t question mine. I want to be with someone who wants to build a life and future together, have children and create a loving family and this still applies. However, I never had a preconceived idea that “The Bachelor” was “the one” for me it’s simply not my style and I was just trying suss out if he was or wasn’t for me. I have the words “trust your intuition” tattooed on my inner forearm as a gentle reminder. My gut told me that this is what I needed to do, so I hit submit on that application form and was fortunate enough to be selected. Suppose my point at the end of the day is I’m a woman who was simply being myself and doing my own thing. If my experience has shown just one person that’s it’s ok to be completely yourself, to back yourself, not put up with bullshit and stay true to you when faced with adversity, then for me everything was worth it. I am so grateful for this experience Nick just simply wasn’t the person for me, nor I the person for him and that’s ok

While Laurina remains Queen forever, Vanessa is hot on her heels. No woman should be pressured to settle for this ocker drongo.
 
I admire Vanessa Sunshine for being true to herself. She is the only one who is even attempting to question the process, whereby you're supposed to be able to fall in love with someone instantly. The others are either desperate enough to make it happen, or they are lying.
Honey Badger seems a nice enough guy, but he's pretty dim, as demonstrated by his absolute shock that one of these women isn't head over heels in love with him. He doesn't get that it has to happen naturally, for him it's all or nothing.

I wonder if the producers expected so much support for Vanessa, who they clearly set up as the joke of the show with their promos (as has happened previously with Laurina and Keira - we're not supposed to like these people, we're supposed to side with the mean girls). The more I see Alisha's muppet face bitching about Vanessa Sunshine's name, the more I like Vanessa.

It is annoying that specific girls keep getting dumped just after the bitches tell us they want that one dumped....
Vanessa I will miss most because she was giving us back our viewpoint of this silly show, cynical and sarcastic, she is a gem
 
intruders coming

It's too early for intruders, when we hardly know the originals. The only ones I could name in a lineup are the 3 mean girls and Cass.
 
Yeah, but maybe the bitches coven get dumped and 3 normal people take their places, that would be fun

I think they probably didn't expect so much support for Vanessa, but it's clear that they didn't want us to side with the mean girls either. I think the producers perhaps meant for Vanessa to be more of a joke contestant like Cayla. They wanted to capitalise on the contrast between her name and her demeanour. Look how pretty and happy she is here - they obviously have been intentionally hiding this side of her, just like they hid that she did actually get goodbyes when she left.

 
I'm feeling a bit 'over' how they are editing this season. They are showing a lot more of the 'behind the scenes' machinations then they have in previous years, which on the one hand, I think is trying to trick the audience into thinking they're being authentic, but they are also editing things to the hilt as per Vanessa Sunshine's farewell. Also, in the ad about Cass' conversation with Nick, someone called after her three times in the ad, like she was ignoring them and storming out. In the footage on the show, they called out once. Still got ignored, but not so dramatic either.

I think it might be Rhiannon that storms out this week maybe?! Maybe the discussion with the producer after the awkward 'let's get it over with' kiss proposition, was setting things up to show her as a little bit impetuous and uncertain of herself?

Also, I think Rhiannon looks like one of the twins, Alyssa and Lyssandra from The Block. Same nose, smile and chin.
