Stagecoach!! I was surprised so many people were into country music. Oh right! I wonder if it's interest in the music or just the influencer perks

mrsweasley, ding ding ding to the latter. "Perks" including hook-ups and such I'm sure.

Remember Blake with whatever festival it was? With SM it’s getting harder for them not to meet Coachella 🤣 Stagecoach! It took me some time but I found it

Well I think the producers are over contestants who are trying to produce their own storylines themselves (i.e. match up beforehand then use the show to get more screen time and followers) which would explain why they went so hard on these people with this storyline. I don't think Chris deserved to get hounded out of Paradise but he was being an ass with his claim that he was "just following his heart" by kissing Alana in front of Jessenia and not showing her any respect by having a conversation with her about it ahead of time. You could tell he thought that was going to be his big, romantic "bachelor" moment. Then obviously the Brendan and Pieper stuff. Blake also got his hand slapped big time when he tried to position himself as "the bachelor in paradise" on his season . To this day, I still don't understand why he asked Tayshia out on his date when he claimed Hannah G. was his #1 pick and he even went to meet her in person before the show. The producers definitely manipulated him to his own detriment. I think they realize people are still going to meet irl before the show but they're essentially warning them to be smarter about it and that they're going to give you a bad edit if you try any shenanigans. I do understand their side of it. They won't have a show much longer if they let contestants get away with this. It would be really boring if they all match up ahead of time and then there is no drama or people meeting for first time/falling in love on our screens. What would the storyline be this summer if they had let Brendan get away with what he did and just went for the traditional storyline of Brendan preferring Peiper to Natasha and edited out all of the crap he said about Natasha and followers?

Stagecoach!! I was surprised so many people were into country music. I was too but then I remembered how many of them are white, Christian, and southern. There's a huge BN contingent living in Nashville right now.

- I’m not even a tiny bit sad to see Kendall go. Byeeee.
- Blake sucks. I hope Tia picks James. Blake doesn’t care about her. And his defensiveness was gross.
- I don’t know what to think of this Ivan/Chelsea/Aaron triangle. Clearly something happened at the hotel between Ivan and Chelsea, but then she’s snuggling up to Aaron saying she’s drawn to him. Their chemistry seemed legit. Then she’s telling Ivan he’s her homie (ie, friend zone), but then she’s kissing him!?! What is happening!?

I did think Chelsea was playing the field a bit, which ok, cool, do your thing, live a little. Ivan though - he and Aaron were friends, or so I thought, the least he could have done is give the Aaron a heads-up that he's into Chelsea. If he really is. #SUS Seems like he's being a rose chaser. I'll be interested to see what comes of the hotel revelation next week. I want Natasha to find someone, too. I don't think her someone is on the beach, or even part of BN tbh. I'm so not into Thomas and Becca coupled up, that's a fun vacation fling fo sho, right?!! I see Maurissa + Riley and Joe + Serena as the only coupled up pairs that'll make it out together and actually be together. I find myself waffling on Abigail and Noah, but mostly because they don't get a lot of screentime so we don't see where they are as a couple, aside from making out hither and yon.

abbandkaa you’re probably right about Natasha’s match not being in the beach or part of BN. I just want it so badly for her. Re: Abigail and Noah, I have no idea if they’re strong enough as a couple. They just seem so blah. I don’t really care about them. Maurissa drives me nuts. I actually think she and Riley have potential to last, but she’s so dramatic! Like, crying on the beach over Riley when he was at that party? Meanwhile, Jessinia saw Chris kissing someone else so she had actual reason to be upset. Way to make it about yourself, Maurissa! I feel like she’s looking for problems when none exist.

PandaWatch, I think Maurissa's lack of self-confidence has led to her dramatics, big time. She admits to being super needy in relationships, lots of reassurance and such, and it shows. I hope for her sake (and her relationship with Riley or whoever beyond) she works through that and roots herself in her worth as a person and partner.

I feel like she’s looking for problems when none exist. Maurissa reminds me of a high school girl with her first love, but really lust I do think they could make it if they communicate more like they did last night and hopefully they do but it just isn't shown because right now it seems all physical (which is fine too)

angelashly, your assessment of Maurissa is kind of how I feel about Kenny and Mari. Lots of lust and obvious fireworks between them, but like what else is there?

I guess not the age difference as much as the fact that she is sooooo young. I think they’ll find they’re in different places in life. +1 to being glad Kendall is gone. She was so annoying and cryptic in her answers to Joe.

So I was cooking during some of it and think I missed some stuff.
When they were evacuated, they went to hotels but had the guys and girls separated right? As to not miss anything on camera?
And what's being thought of is Chelsea and Ivan broke the rules and hooked up there?

pitchslap , that seems to be the implication but we don't know yet! Guys/gals did appear to be separated when ushered into SUVs to leave, but upon return, were all coupled up again walking into Paradise. angelashly , THAT EXACTLY. if he's your person you do everything in your power to make it work, even moving. Good heavens, Kendall.

angelashly, if I had to guess it would be so that any drama/hookups, etc would be caught on camera. I'm not saying it was a realistic idea, haha. I wish there had been footage of them in the hotels, like what did they do and how long were they there?!

Literally 2 minutes later "yay we're back!"

My thoughts…
I was glad to see Kendall leave. She didn't seem ready for paradise.
I think Joe and Serena will make it to the end. But I think once they are in the real world, it’ll be another Kendall situation. Canada and Chicago seems way more challenging.
I’m not sure about Kenny and Mari. I feel like all we get are the sexual conversations and drama.
I wish Noah and Abigail had more screen time!
Maybe Tia decides to choose neither of them! 🤷♀️
I am also not sure I’m feeling the Becca/Thomas relationship. I don’t see her getting engaged at the end of this. I’ve heard her say she won’t get engaged on tv again.

Bye Kendall. She's always been annoying and she doesn't mean what she says about Joe or she'd move. I know I'm preaching to the choir here
I'm sick of Tia talking about her vagina
I agree Serena and Joe won't last. I think he's ready to settle down and she's probably at least a few years from that. Age differences can work but there are a lot of interactions between them shown that really highlight how much younger she is, at least to me
No way Kenny and Mari will make it. Kenny was in Paradise to get his dick wet, and there's no shame in that, but don't lead everyone on. He'll probably never settle down
I'm also wondering why they didn't film at the hotel unless it was an equipment issue (couldn't get the cameras in there, not enough room, etc)
