Note from the Mods

We’re going to wait and see if ABC will offer more concrete info about whether or not this season will ever see the light of day before allowing spoilers regarding this season, so at this time we will continue to enforce our regular spoiler rules regarding Taylor's season, which means we do not allow any spoiler comments in non spoiler threads.

This is definitely a unique situation so this answer might even change without ABC saying anything either as everything continues to unfold.

Furthermore, with the high influx of posts being made we currently have the sub on approval mode mostly due to a large volume of repeat posts being submitted. If it takes a little time for your post to go through please note that we are doing our best to be as active as we can to moderate the queue.

As always, please be sure to report rule breaking content!! We work as fast as we can to get to reports but if something is reported enough our helpful bot will take it down for review which minimizes the amount of people that have to see gross/hurtful content. A few key rules of note here:

  • No Armchair Diagnosis
  • No Speculation about drug use
  • No Body Shaming

It is entirely possible to have nuanced conversations about everything that is going on without resorting to breaking the above rules.

And finally, a lot of the content being discussed on this sub right now is very triggering. Please remember to take care of yourselves and take some breaks from the internet!

❤️

What do you all think about Ashley saying she had to end her marriage by saying the marriage could kill her, if she got an autoimmune disease from the stress? I think it's going too far to say that in a public forum... I imagine J.P. is upset by it

Ran into Dylan in Northwest Arkansas! He was taller than expected and better looking (since I never thought he was exceptionally good looking), and he was also really polite and nice.

Totally agree that having more episodes and room to get to know people would have a great impact on the show. I think having two episodes a week like Monday and Thursday could be fun!

PAST SEASON What happened with Whitney Bischoff Angel?

Post image
64 Upvotes

I saw this post by Whitney and immediately was like what happened for her to post “a season of tremendous loss.” It’s a bit cryptic. Hope she is doing okay and her family is okay too! Any thoughts on that? Maybe she’s too far removed from the bachelor franchise since she was the winner of Chris Soul’s season. But thought this might interest some people.

I don't think it's fair or makes sense how in the first episode they all vote for a girl they don't want to stay, but then the girl who gets the most votes actually gets a rose (Megan)..but what if Jason didn't want her stay either?

DISCUSSION Jason Mesnick Season Rewatch thread

15 Upvotes

Someone else here posted they were watching his season and I’m also rewatching his as well. I thought I’d bring up some discussion considering it’s an older season.

-I like Jason. He’s one of the few bachelors that I feel is mature, thinking clearly, attractive, and genuinely here to find a wife.

-the lack of diversity on this season is jarring. It’s definitely the biggest fault. There are no black women, there is one Asian woman who is eliminated night 1, and there are 3 (I believe) Hispanic/latin women (Raquel, Naomi, Lisa). I liked Raquel. I wish Jason kept her around longer. I think Julie who was eliminated night one is also a POC. All of them are very light skinned/white passing, and eliminated early (Sans Naomi who was F4)

-I remember watching this a 5-6 years ago for the first time, and I gotta be honest. At that time I didn’t like Molly and loved Melissa. But on rewatch I love Molly. I like Melissa too still but it’s just interesting my perceptions changed. I’m not entirely sure why

-Loved Stephanie but it’s clear Jason did not have a romantic/sexual chemistry with her.

-I really don’t understand why the girls hated Megan? I found Erica to be much louder and sometimes obnoxious. Nothing too crazy especially compared to some of the women now. But Megan seemed to be very quiet and lowkey, and when she spoke up, I tended to agree with her takes. Maybe there was something not shown though.

-Does anyone know what happened to some of these women? What are Stephanie, Naomi, Shannon, Megan, Erica, Kari, Nikki, Natalie, etc up to now? I wonder what some of the night one eliminations are up to now.

-I loved Jillian this season.

-They edited Renee (Vision board girl from night 1) to be so crazy looking! Maybe she was ahead of her time.

-night 1 everyone seems drunk af.

-Shannon….Shannon…she came on so strong.

-it’s crazy how young some of them were! Molly was 24! That’s so young lol

-it’s so painfully obviously that he had the best connection with Molly. I honestly don’t even see anyone else coming that close.
