A gold dinging bitch in her 30s, will give him a million dollar blow job. He’ll be hooked for life. She’ll be counting down the days until he croaks. She’ll have $750,000.00 insurance payout; sell his dream home for a big, fat profit, and then move onto the next victim.

One of the things about the Bachelor shows is that you expect 20-somethings to be making a lot of vapid conversation and treating their relationships like they're the most important issue on the planet. Any 70 year old who talks about dating like that is just going to sound ludicrous.

by Anonymousreply 15July 17, 2023 6:28 PM

The most telling part of this show will be the age range of the contestants.

If they pick women in their 60s-70s that's a fundamentally different viewpoint than if they pick women in their 40s-50s.

If they go lower than 40s, ABC will be ROASTED alive.

Here's an idea too good for network TV: For half the broads, cast age-appropriate women he gets along with mentally and emotionally, and for the other half, cast 20 year-old sexpots who will do ANYTHING for a sugar daddy.

[quote] Old lady faces with long hair

I remember years ago - circa 1990 - when my sister, then an absolutely stunning woman in her mid-30s with shoulder-length, fashionably styled hair, attended a local tv talk show. The guest was a fussy fashion stylist - think a younger Mr. Blackwell - who took questions from the audience. I suspect my sister thought she was going to get a quick approval when she asked for advice about her appearance. Instead, she was told, she was too old to wear her hair at her length!

Some episode two impressions:

I thought Theresa was quite sweet this week, but she has incurable crazy eyes.

Nancy, the one who broke down about the wedding dress, seems like she's not really into Gerry but is pretending she is.

Gerry really is in good shape for 71.

Some of these ladies really should not have skipped sunscreen.

Sylvia, the one who loves cooking with garlic and peppers, look-a like-a man. I feel like I've seen her in MILF porn somewhere.

My early favorite was the classy and radiant Marina, but she left the show after the first episode despite getting a rose.

Faith is such a "not like the other girls" annoyance. Oh you like being barefoot and swimming in horse troughs? How delightful and unlike anyone, and she had to point out, "notice I didn't run up to you like the other girls did". Yeah but you're still on this fucking show, and you're an idiot to not run up and hug him as long as you're here. And Teresa and her "snip it, snip it!" she's never heard "zip it!" before. Kathy was a bitch though but also, not compatible with him at all, she can find someone else.

I don't think she's compatible with GARY (let me spell his name how it's pronounced). He's too...nice, and probably a little simpler than she is. I can't figure out if Teresa knows what she's doing when she mentions him to Kathy, if so, well done. I liked Joan, she was gorgeous, Edith too. I don't see why he can't call Joan when this is all over. And it's funny, we all saw his wife, she was...not cute. But of course all the women he kept are.

This format is so much more successful with other participants because there are actual stakes. They're not 20 or 30-somethings who are chasing their 15 minutes of fame and can run into a potential partner any day of the week at a coffee shop. These people have lived their lives and want a last chance at love. Their personalities are established and authentic and they're unapologetic about who they are. Except for the little drama between two or three of them, the house with the women is a total love fest. It's such a pleasure to watch and an interesting sociological experiment when compared to the standard Bachelor template.

Faith is a total pick me, not-like-the-other-girls though. And Prince's muse? Never married, breaks up after 7 years. Knit a scarf out of all the red flags she's giving you, Gerry. I'm sure his daughters are not happy. Senior dating sites are huge. There's no fucking reason to do a show like this because you're single. And every goddamn time he tells someone how much he likes them, I want them to say, "oh yeah? then send those other bitches home and let's go!"

R142 It's the insane format of the show, designed to create the most amount of internal conflict for the participants because drama makes good TV. Sometimes I feel sorry for the contestants. I don't believe they "love" Gerry but I believe what they feel is probably a very temporary feeling of desire fueled by competition, ego, and the fear of being publicly humiliated by rejection. It's like a modern version of the Roman circus with gladiators fighting to the death to see who survives. Being rejected by the bachelor signals a kind of public death. You're rejected, that means he liked you less than the others, and then you disappear.

Before the first episode, they very quickly showed Theresa losing her mind crying because he had dumped her. Then, last week, they showed him saying "I shouldn't have let her go." The clips were not connected but I'm making the connection. The other two women, while more attractive than Theresa, seem to have had a really fucked up past with men so I don't think they would be a good choice. I'm willing to bet on my theory.

Agreed R195. It never felt that creepy with young people playing bachelor or bachelorette but these old folks... this is the last ditch before the crematorium. It feels so sad for the women. Theresa is an exercise in desperation, willing to do and say anything to keep Gerry. And Leslie seems dissociated at times, like she's scared shitless and can't look at him straight in the eyes. This is not going to end well.

by Anonymousreply 196November 18, 2023 12:20 AM

I really don't like Leslie and I can't say why. She seems very insincere. I dont think she is at all like Gerry who seems like a corny, white bread old man. She's had all failed marriages and fucked around with people like Prince (if that's true) and he's probably only had sex with a handful of people. The room temperature at 69 thing was cringe and just the way she acts like she's very coy and sweet...I don't buy it. Teresa really has only had one man, she's much more like Gerry and despite her clinginess, they're a better match.

I would be surprised if Gerry's daughter gave their approval for Leslie, I would think they would view Theresa as a better match since she is closer in age and her husband also died. Also Gerry's daughters and grand daughters are a bit frumpy so I can't see them choosing the "sexy" one although Theresa does dress young with her booty shorts.

by Anonymousreply 201November 20, 2023 8:48 AM

Yeah R201, I don't think they'd like her at all. I've never seen the bachelor. Is it common to fuck a chick and then the next morning/night, fuck another one? Also, Gerry is kind of a dick too. The beginning of the Theresa date he was bored and thinking of Leslie, and then suddenly (when he found out Theresa is financially independent?) he was all into her. Of course I would never fucking hang out with someone who told me he loved me and two other people. Again, if I were Leslie and he professed his love, I would say, "Good, then lets leave and you can tell the other girls it's over."

I've been around Leslie through family events. Last Thanksgiving, we definitely noticed and commented that it was odd for her to wear black leather gaucho pants and a clingy top that showed off her back to a suburban Minneapolis family thanksgiving. She definitely gave off the air of a Real Housewives wannabe. Very messy personal life. Her son was there, because he was dating a family member. She was much younger than him, as was his previous girlfriend who she closely resembled. He is a music promoter (side eye) who oddly had custody of two kids from a previous marriage. She must have been a mess for the father to get sole custody. Leslie absolutely seems like the type to get into this for potential fame.
