Bachelor Pad 3

I am going to go out on a limb here and sound like Chris Harrison when I say last night's episode was "the most dramatic rose ceremony ever"!! People can hate on Chris all they want, but he pulled the move of the century. When I watched the previews last week, and during the show this week, I kept thinking what is the twist going to be. Never in a million years would I have guessed that Erica Rose would turn the game upside down. For the past two seasons, I have hoped a moment like this would happen to change the game up and break an alliance. FINALLY someone stood up to the power group and took them down. During the first season, "the couples" ruled the house; during the second season, Vienna and Kasey, ruled the house. (By the way if anyone missed the news story about Kasey he is currently serving time in jail for huffing and getting into a fight at a bar....what a winner!) This season Michael was indeed running the show, until Chris came along.

As the show started, Chris was really getting on my last nerve as he complained that his friends turned against him. It's a game show to win money. People lie; get over it. Another favorite part of the show was when Kalon made a jab at Chris about not winning Emily. Ouch. Then as the show progressed perhaps the most awkward moment other than every single second of Jamie's Bachelor/Bachelor Pad history, was when Ed was questioned about any romantic interest in his partner. What woman would ever find this man attractive? I'm not gonna lie I was a little shocked that Ed was making out with Jaclyn and sharing a bed with her, but to flat out diss her in front of everyone instead of having a conversation first. Have some tact. Next week promises to add more fuel to this fire. Then comes Stagliano's plan to get rid of Chris and Erica.

I just can't get over how clutch that move was by Chris. Everyone tried to get him out and instead the head of house goes down. It was amazing. I am sure people are annoyed with Erica Rose but she has always been one of my favorites; I don't even know why. Personally, I wouldn't have hated it if Blakely would have gone home. She is right up there with some of the most irritating personalities. If she were my partner and screaming in my ear during that teacup competition I would have dropped the plates and told her in much more colorful words to "shut it". All in all, last night was everything I hoped it would be and more. Also, these women who fall apart when their partners/love interests get voted off make me sad. You are there to win money. They didn't die. You can see them after the show and date in a normal setting. Get over it. Nick, who rarely utters a word, was right on when he said his new partner is "a widow". Judging by "reality" tv most women are crazy and most men are jerks who use women.

Can't wait to see what happens next week. Do the contestants not remember how to win the game? If I were in the house, I would keep Chris and Ed around. That would increase my chance of getting the money because no one is going to vote for them. I am rooting for Lindsey. If that means Kalon also wins so be it, but I really like her and hope she stays around.
