Disclaimer...I have been paying even less attention than usual when watching, but I just finished episode 3, and usually I feel like a lot of the drama is orchestrated for the show. I also usually feel like the bachelor/bachelorette is 'encouraged' at least to keep the drama filled person around for the first several episodes but it's obvious to me that they are just keeping them around for the show. But at least until the end of this episode, it seemed like Charity really did like Brayden. Now that I'm typing this out, I realize it really did follow the exact formula of all the other seasons though, so who knows, maybe she was just a better actress or I really wasn't paying attention. But I really can't stand Brayden and if she keeps him around much longer I'm going to be fast forwarding a lot more.

I haven’t watched a full episode yet and I’m sad because I was excited for her but yes the drama is to much. And that’s saying a lot from me who watches 90% reality and the other is drama shows like suits and a million little things

I don’t know if anybody watches still but I actually watched yesterday and this is so true.
Also I don’t know how I felt about his family with her. It seems he is the big favorite for The Bachelor and No

I’ve watched weekly since we watch claim to fame as a family just not full episodes and I was shocked when we turned it on and it was hometowns already.

I have always dvr'd and watched the next day, so the time slot change doesn't affect me, but I definitely noticed this season seemed 'sped up,' but I honestly can't tell if that's a good thing or a bad thing. The stuff they cut was probably a bunch of useless drama that I would have fast forwarded through anyway, although there was still plenty of that, and I always feel like we get to hometowns and I feel like I barely know any of the people left just like now anyway.
As to Joey's family, I honestly wondered if it was just totally staged and they were encouraged to make it seem like he was hiding something for extra drama since he seemed to be the front runner.
I do really feel for Charity in navigating a bi-racial relationship. It would suck to feel a genuine connection with someone and have that be the #1 hangup about the relationship because you can't deny the fact that there will be obstacles for them to face because of it as much as they would like hope society has 'changed' enough to not make it an issue. And as much as Joey says he's open to learning and supporting her, that's not the same as someone who knows what it's like to grow up as a person of color.

H and I wondered about production but h also felt that they weren’t ready for a bi-racial relationship. He didn’t necessarily think that they were racist but not ready if that makes sense so they made it seem like he wasn’t being himself and wouldn’t be able to be himself with her. If that was production they set that family up bad and Joey is the one Bachelor Nation wants for The Bachelor next season not for Charity. I always got the feeling Dotun was her front runner

My daughter went to her best friend's bday party (held at the grandparent's house) this past weekend and was so excited to tell me she went in the hot tub that was on the Bachelorette 😆😆 I was like "what about seeing the actual bachelorette?" And she said "well I see her all the time... but the HOT TUB!" I saw the hot tub in question if anybody cares... it looked smaller than I remember.

I watched last nights episode, and….woof to Xavier. He was who I was rooting for at the beginning, and he turned out to be the exact opposite of what he presented. I will say that throughout the season, I felt like he was lacking a personality. And then last night when he dropped that bombshell I was like damn. I’m so glad she didn’t fall for what he was trying to do and she sent him home.

So, apparently the bachelorette finale will not be on my local ABC affiliate tonight because of preseason football. The game is between the Baltimore Ravens and the Washington Commanders, so those of us in that region won’t be able to watch the bachelorette finale tonight. (for everyone else, the game is on ESPN).

But I agree - I don’t know if I can make it 3 hours.
