Bachelor 12 Media Thread ~ Spoilers

[pajamasam]

New preview of next episode and an interview with Matt posted at abc bachelor website. Some girls play nice (Shayne kisses), some girls play rough (rugby), and some girls get the meeps. (lots of meep noises and Amanda face) It struck me as mean when I first watched it.

This of course means that we wont see one single occurrence of meeps during the show. Fleiss and his stupid previews.....grrr.

I wouldn't have found it mean until I heard another Meep at the very end of the clip over the ABC logo.

I get it, it's funny. It's cute. She's self-deprecating about it. But I certainly hope they tone it down as the season progresses.

I went back and found the quote from Fleiss he says the condition has "dramatic and comedic potential."

That came from one of my sources, and I reported it to the board.

Well, BlondieGal, what else are your sources saying? Endearing is interesting and seems like a strong point to make

[jlccaz]

Fleiss was quoted in Canadian press saying that one girl had a condition (as yet unspecified) that presented great dramatic and comedic potential. I actually disagree on both counts. It turns her into a cartoon character, reducing the chronic hiccup to an essential character attribute. Enough already, I agree. It's been wayyyyyyyyyyy overplayed and we're on Episode ... 2!

Oh, I'm sorry. I had forgotten where I heard it from but I knew it was said. Thanks for letting me know!

Wow, it didn't take long for that to get taken down. I'm not finding it tonight.

Or, maybe it's because I'm not a member of facebook?

BTW, Cupcakes, I think you're one of the best sleuthers here.

I know what you mean - I hope this doesn't mean that we will get another F3 edit ala Sadie "the Virgin" or Danielle "death bf".

NOT liking that commercial! At all. For the reason bolded above.

I agree -- it was absolutely not necessary to put that meep in there like that.
