Who will get the first date with Georgia Love?
I’m a bit sad the stripper-slashie-business collector went home so early, as he would have got us all screaming at the TV, as we did with Keira on Bachie.

The Bachelorette Australia screens 7.30-8.40pm tonight on Ten, followed by Gogglebox.
The only reason I’m sad that the male stripper was eliminated was because I was kind of hoping he’d get to do his routine at some point. You know what they say, when life gets you down, the Universe sends you men in thongs.
I like the donkey guy. I know his name is Lee, but forever, he’ll be the donkey guy. And you know what, I still think Sam is going to get the hidden-depths storyline. Mostly, the confessional where he admitted that he was intrigued by her leads me to think he’ll be around for a while.
Besides, the first few episodes, we have to cycle through the half-dozen suitors that she’s just not interested in and who never really get much screen time for that very reason.
I’m also looking forward to the update on Aaron and Harry Potter’s bromance. I wonder if they’ve moved in together yet?
Okay, seriously, Ben the miner doesn’t blink.
The role of Rhys in the show is to make Sam look less annoying.
Ha ha ha
Heheheheh :D.
He doesn’t blink – it’s so weird!
Yes. Twenty five minutes in I haven’t seen Ben blink yet. He’s been plugged into some kind of electrical circuit.
He could be the greatest deer in the headlights of all time.
It’s as if he’s seeing a ghost 24/7.
He takes sleeping with one eye open to a whole new level.
Miner grievances.
Jake will be top 3 for sure
Jake feels like he’s holding back a little bit, though. He’s definitely ticking all the boxes for tall, dark and mysterious, but it still feels like he’s keeping himself a little reserved. Jake is handsome and nice, but he’s not my favourite guy initially, I’ll say that.
I like these guys. I hope they stay as good natured through the whole season.
And don’t they make the girls on the Bachelor look like ‘hos.
Another tick for Sam is that he just doesn’t buy Rhys’s crap at all, which I actually think is kind of hilarious. I want him to be the go-to narrator like Rachel was for Richie’s season.
As an aside, some of these guys look *damn* good in cowboy outfits. Just making the observation.
Sam is sneaky and sleazy. He will be there till the end. Producers instructions. So is Rhys.
Georgia forgot the bottom half of her skirt.
Rhys isn’t nearly as good looking as he thinks he is and comes across as a total tool.
Rhys’s rig (as he called it) actually wasn’t that impressive. He was built, but he didn’t seem that toned. Like, it seemed mostly muscle and there wasn’t much definition. I’d reckon that a few of the other guys have him mostly beat on the shirtless stakes, we’ll just need to give them time (given that Richie couldn’t go five minutes without taking his shirt off, I think we’ll see for ourselves sooner rather than later).
Yes I think we definitely need to see more of them without shirts!
That’s a cause I can definitely get behind. I bet Sam and Cameron and Lee are *ripped*. And I wouldn’t be surprised if Jake was surprisingly sculpted as well.
Cam seems really sweet.
Absolutely no substance to Rhys (and not the style he thinks he has).
Yeah, I just can’t take him seriously, because whenever he’s on screen, all I’m thinking is, Harry Potter.
Both Rhys and Sam are obnoxious. Sam may be better looking but I really don’t like his attitude.
So far Cam is great. I am sure he has a better body than Rhys. Mr May…..
I’m finding The Bachelorette a bit boring.
Georgia just comes across as too media savvy. Talks like a journalist half the time.
Yes – I thought her voice overs sounded like she was reading the news.
Yes, she narrates, and sounds like the girl who used to host Farmer Wants a Wife.
I thought the same thing, nice girl, but too “professional” looking, not natural enough and she’s definitely going for looks.
I don’t think she is going for looks. Courtney got the first impression rose
I feel sorry for miner Ben – I think he needed to stay a bit longer to boost his self esteem.
I like Georgia. No filter. And I like the fact that she doesn’t keep anyone there that’s she is clearly not attracted to. Miner Ben was lovely guy but out of his league.
I think miner Ben should have got rid of the metal and perhaps not mention his toilet habits on meeting Georgia. Still going with Jake and Cameron. Jake passed the test of not telling about the kiss. Both guys seem really sweet and very sexy.
I am enjoying this show far more than Richie and co. Georgia may be media savvy but she doesn’t come over as false or a block of wood.
Yeah, I hated the nervous poo comment, that sealed his fate.
And just repeating myself (ad nauseam), I love Gogglebox, reflecting the views of a nation.
I loved when the blond student kicked over the table and just refused to watch the remainder of the finale when Richie picked Alex. That was hilarious.
I am just wondering if those boys are sponsored by a sock company – they always have the most colourful feet. I wanted a close-up of Mum’s burnt dinner.
Loving Gogglebox on last week’s synopsis on The Bachelor – what a hoot.
Poor miner Ben. He seemed like a nice guy, but maybe a little too left-of-centre for Georgia. The other boys seemed to like him. And didn’t he sound heart-broken in the limo ride home?
Maybe if he’d blinked more, Georgia would’ve kept him around.
No way, if I guy doesn’t know not to say he did three poos immediately prior to meeting you, he doesn’t deserve sympathy. Coaching maybe, but not sympathy. And All Happening is right imo. Lose the nose ring.
I hated Georgia’s nanna dress at the ceremony. It looked like something Nikki from Bach, or Bea Arthur might have worn in Golden girls. Dresses like that are what old ladies wore in the 80s. Yuk. But, it might not have been her choice. Actually I didn’t like the frilly bone coloured dress either.
I preferred Richie’s season. This lot are a bit of a snooze. Still it’s only ep 2.
So we have 2 topless strippers, 4 models/ ex models amongst the contestants.
Maybe we will get some gate crashers later to stir the pot
Who’s the other stripper?
Rhys
Really? Interesting…
A quick Google finds Rhys’s stripping credentials (it turns out he does the Sunshine Coast. That’s interesting…), but actually, the article I looked at said that firefighter Cam had done a strip-tease on-stage at some point as well, and that’s not counting his calendar.
Damn it, channel 10. Is there a single contestant this year who’s *not* a male stripper?
Courtney has been a tv presenter apparently, and was on Getaway.
No wonder I am finding it boring. And they have all used up the stocks of teeth whitener. Even that chubbyish comedian guy is in it for exposure.
Yeah, he’s exposing a lot of himself.
Sam looks too much like Harry Connick doing Aldi ads.
Rhys is a stripper,yeah? Unbelievable. Somewhere , sometime he’s been stripped of a personality.
Here’s the Mamamia recap http://www.mamamia.com.au/bachelorette-recap-season-2-ep-2/
Is this Sam’s modelling work for Aldi? he mentioned pyjamas…
Yes, definitely.
Everyone wants to be in an Aldi ad looking like they’re trying to pull a little boy’s pants down, right? He’s “looking for love” in all the wrong places.
Yeah, that’s … awkward.
So you think maybe the angst between him and Rhys is unresolved sexual tension?
and this one…
Good detective work Shellbot!
even better: http://chadwickmodels.com/models/sam-johnston/
Why do I find the naked poses gross?
Maybe it’s because I don’t think I’m the target audience?
See, I find that pretty sexy, to be honest. It’s a tease, it’s tantalising without being explicit. But I’m not going to lie, I think the male form is beautiful in its own way, and Sam’s a gorgeous guy.
IOW, guess what my new desktop background is?
This season is disappointing. I read on facebook that Georgia only left her job to get national exposure to get a gig with a major network, not to find love. She knew her job would be reinstated after The Bachelorette was over. I think she’s looking for a hosting job, she could easily take over from Osher as she comes across media savvy and more professional than him! I would like to see more ordinary guys and girls, short, fat, tatoos, , guess that will never happen, if these models can’t get someone, no hope for average people.
That’s the feel I am getting. Career moves all round. At least Alex fell head over heels.
‘At least Alex fell head over heels.’
You think that is for real or another 15 minutes of fame.
I have read a lot of negative comments on Georgia before the airing of The Bachelorette. I always think all these gorgeous girls and guys in The Bachelor and Bachelorette (contestants included)are there for exposure. If they can’t find love in the ordinary world, what hope does ordinary looking everyday people?
Hopefully Georgia is truthful about having a great career but without someone to share sucks. Its going to be a gamble for her. She could do better than before or goes back to a reporting journalist
There is an element of (let’s be charitable and call it) theatre to this franchise, isn’t there? Regardless of who’s wooing who, the bachelors and bachelorettes are always beautiful and intelligent and confident and capable and successful interesting (well, not always on that one, but you get the idea) … so why are they finding it so hard to go on a date? How on Earth could it be that hard for these amazing and glamourous people?
It’s a sad truth, but it’s hard not to think that some of them are there just to get their faces on TV, you know?
That Blue Mountains stunt had also been done before with Anna and Tim on The Bachelor.
Apparently the money is on Lee to take out the whole shebang. Done deal.
Yeap. Top 3 got to be Cam, Jake and Lee.
I feel like Georgia Love this week; juggling too many balls at once.
