Everyone's pretty excited because the "ladies" are back. And by "everyone" I mean the 6 of us who gather every week to watch The Bachelor. So to start, there was obviously much debate about Ben's hair and whether or not we liked it. Consensus was that we did not. But we did not hate it as much as Christie hates sweetheart necklines ... direct quote on that one was "what's that neckline called? I HATE it." Note to self, never ask Christie to be a bridesmaid if the dresses have a sweetheart neckline. I think we all got over his ridiculous hair with the non-stop shots of his winery. If there's one thing we can all agree on, it's our love of wine. So Ben wins us over with his occupation. But his insistence on wearing a fluorescent pink tank and talking about seeing his father through hummingbirds brings him down more than a few notches.
As for the "ladies" we once again became focused on hair, wondering if we like the ombre look (we do) and whether or not yellow dress girl's hair should be longer (it should). Then we moved on to the dresses. Which, with very little exception, were horrible. The green sateen and red plungey/strappy thingy were particularly awful - ABC obviously brought in some casting agents from Rock of Love this season. We agreed that crazy blogger had one of the best outfits and the short sparkly one worn by someone else (an administrative assistant maybe?) was also good. We figured that the (potentially) lesbian brunette wore such a demure dress to compensate for her "career" as a VIP cocktail waitress. The model also looked good. Her sense of superiority really complimented her black dress - the title of this post was her response when Ben asked her what she did for a living.
So that's about all we really had to say. As you'll notice, we don't know any of their names yet. That comes later as they go on dates, and swap traumatic stories about the journey they've been on to make it to this place when they feel they are finally ready to find love again. If you don't understand that sentence, you obviously haven't been watching this show for long enough.
My final two predictions are horse lady and sparkly dress girl.
