We can agree to disagree on this issue, but I saw the Travis season and Shayne's time FAR and AWAY eclipsed any other girl's screen time on a BACHELOR show.imo Never before, imo, has a girl come close to having so much screen time. To me this was clearly the Shayne Show and I have nothing against Shayne, but the time allotment was clearly different for her, the accomodation difference was CLEARLY waaaaay emphasized for her as well for the FD. Yes, Sarah had a narrative role, but Shayne's constant presence in all but the first show was quite marked to me and others.
Again, nobody is changing anybody's mind probably, but many of us have watched this show since the beginning for most of the seasons.

Also, I haven't seen the video of this TMZ bar date, but Matt again looks like a total mess to me. o.k. I just saw the tape of this date, LOL No wonder it's title "S and M FAKE their way through, etc." LOL OMYG They got in the car and faked on kiss, Matt moves away takes a slug of his drink, another fake t.v. kiss, then Matt immediately has to get another slug of his drink. NO lingering intimacy whatsoever. Believe what you wish, but to my eyes this couple is SO FAKE to me, the worst yet. Fleiss you haven't fooled much of anyone and I hope you know it. Totally a "NOMANCE" it doesn't even quality as a "showmance" imo.
If they're happy good for them, but to me, they look absolutely less than euphoric, but simply hitting their marks with staged kisses with no true signs of intimacy.
However, time for me to move on and let them do whatever they do.

OMG, I can remember the days when I went out to the club/bar with my man, it was wild and sexy, we use to kiss all over the place in the club, outside in the car before going home, regardless of who was watching man those were some hot and good days....Enjoy Matt/Shayne.....

At least Shayne appears to be, in the midst of all the flashbulbs. Mission accomplished.

Re: Bachelor 12 Media Thread ~ Spoilers

I guess that I'm in a total minority here...the promos said a true love story with a very romantic ending and that's what I saw.

I saw a fairly good looking guy dressed up to the nines, meeting 25 very attractive young women. Yes, he did say Shayne looked amazing in the first episode, but Amanda made the biggest impression and she got the first rose. Although Chelsea stood out in Vegas,I think that Shayne really brought herself to the forefront of his thoughts with her tantrum, and had it not been for her conciliatory apology, she might well not have earned that wine tasting date. But I do think he chose that for her in the same way Andy chose the glamour date for Tessa.

The fact that he was affected by her looks, the romantic setting and the physical intimacy just meant he was .... male. As a 5ft 2 inch brunette myself who has always been involved with men at least 1ft taller that me, I'd like to say that the cuddling and occasional babytalk can be almost mandatory with this size difference... and a lot of bigger men do prefer it.

And from that point I could see their chemistry just explode on my tv screen. I did see him interact with the other girls, but I never saw the depth of tenderness with any other.

I guess together with Matt, I had my doubts... was she going to been the mean, spoilt society girl in the house who gets sent home to the relief of the other girls, so we could all cheer as good triumphed over evil?

But then like Matt I was won over by the girl who tossed of round off back handsprings and pulled her skirt hems... down!, the girl who admitted (ruefully) to being high maintenance, the girl who brought makeup on the ski slopes, the girl who put her heart out there.

I didn't need the game, the suspense, the surprise ending, the shocking plot twist.. I wanted the romance and that's what I got.
