The Bachelor

What the heck happened on the Bachelor Final last night? Bachelor "fans" know that to bring viewers, drama has to be created by cutting and showing only what the producers want us to see. However, this season, the fans fell in love with the final contestants, because they were both endearing likable people that showed class. The true fan's felt Jason's dilemma of the big decision. The whopper of DeAnna's little visit left us cheering Jason on even more. Cheers, because he didn't go back to her. Someone would be hurt that was expected, but it was going to be with class and dignity. Reality check, six weeks of beautiful settings, glorious dates and romantic interludes is not quite the strongest foundation for a real relationship. But, this great guy was going to get a great girl, no matter which one he chose. Once Jason and Melissa were back to their everyday life, a good dose of getting to know the real person must have set in. Melissa didn't mutter "bastard" so poetically, because all had been peaches and cream. Jason should have left it at that. He should have left us viewer's (lady viewer's, at least) loving and adoring him, pining for him to find the one "real love", cough-cough. Jason should have asked ABC to come back in six months. More ratings, viewer adoration, drum roll please, and announce that the road to love had indeed brought him back to Molly. Nope, instead the entire triangle came off as cheap, tasteless and insincere. Jason-you should have given Melissa the respect to let her lick her wounds in private for a few months. Congrats Molly, you won as option B. ABC should rename the show. Flavors of the season.
