Yes boys and girls it is that time again, another season of America’s favorite relationship reality show (with a horrible success rate) The Bachelor.
This year’s lucky son-of-a-gun is Jake Pavelka, everyone’s favorite Dallas pilot who was sent home by Jillian Harris during last season on The Bachelorette. For those of you who need a refresher, Jake was the knight in shining armor (who was already eliminated) who tracked down Jillian to inform her of something everyone in America, except Jillian, already knew; that Wes was an idiot. Speaking of which, when is he getting his spin-off series??
Though there is something special about this season. It’s not just The Bachelor, but The Bachelor: On the Wings of Love. I will pause as you roll your eyes now. If they wanted to add a subtitle they should have called it The Bachelor: Hey! Look at my Rock-Hard Abs! During the first half-hour of the show, the ratio of shots with Jake’s shirt off to on was about 3:1. If you would have turned off the show by that point, you would swear you were watching a Bo-Flex infomercial.
But regardless, this season will be jammed packed (like an over-sized carry-on) with references to Jake’s occupation of flying. Just in this episode alone, about half of the 25 bachelorettes confessed they wanted to be Jake’s co-pilot. Hell, even Ashley, the 29-year-old teacher form Pittsburgh, Pa., went to the extent of dressing up as his flight attendant. I thought this type of stuff didn’t come until the fantasy suites…
Though this week’s winner comes to us from Channy, the 29-year-old mortgage loan officer, when she said this…
Needless to say she did not get a rose.
After doing much research, I have no been able to lock down the Las Vegas odds on who is the heavy favorite this season, but in closely watching the season promo, put your money on Ali, Tenley, and Ella. As for Michelle and Christina, ehh, not so much.
So raise your champagne glass, and get ready to enjoy another wonderful season!!
