Bachelor 13 - Media **Spoilers**

[barbell]

Question for the vets here. I seem to recall that the tvguide listing was the first preview we got on an episode (usually 12-14 days before it aired) followed by the longer version from ABC. I just checked the tvguide site for the 3rd episode and there's no info posted. Any idea when we can expect that - it would help clear up whether General Hospital date was week 3 or 4? Thanks.

I keep hearing references to Chris Harrison's blog. Can somebody give me a link, please? Thanks!

Thanks! There's so much going on that I didn't see it.

It also explains why we basically only saw her laughing, making faces and joking the entire night (which I'm sure was not the case). Hopefully they won't give her too immature of an edit in order to have a storyline.

I was surprised we didn't see more of Melissa last night; she was included in the introduction to the "ladies". I expected to see Jason spend at least a little bit of time talking to her, but I'm sure if he did, those moments are on the cutting room floor somewhere.

Editing!

This comes from next week's press release describing the dates, etc. We think Melissa gets the blimp date. The description which starts building the tension between the two fits in with what you are saying!!



Another sexy bachelorette receives an invitation to a gorgeous California beach to share oysters and champagne, but Jason is a bit reticent, worried that the woman might not be serious enough for him. But she opens up about her romantic past and then they fly together in the Goodyear Blimp over Los Angeles. (my emphasis)

An article about Megan being on The Bachelor. It also mentions FORT. I've bolded it below!

Virginia Beach must have some hot singles. Last season of "The Bachelorette" garnered a contestant from Virginia Beach, Chandler Fulton, who didn't even make to past the first cut. (Note: do not impress future dates with a duck call.)

But last night's premiere of "The Bachelor," featured a 25-year-old former Virginia Beach resident and Sewickley, PA native, Megan Parris. The 2005 Virginia Wesleyan grad is now a single mom and lacrosse coach, and was a solid scorer for the VWC lacrosse team.

Apparently, Megan took some time off of coaching and mommy-duty to be one of the 25 women vying for the new "Bachelor" Jason Mesnick, a single parent as well. And unlike, Chandler, Megan got a fair share of air time too - running her mouth to the other ladies about being a single mom, dropping cuss words and then, she was voted by the ladies as the girl they most wanted to get sent home first.

But there was a twist to the plot. As host Chris Harrison announced that the girl who received the most votes from the ladies wouldn't be going home, but would be staying with a rose! (Which didn't make the other contestants happy.)

The best part about watching last night's season premiere, aside from rooting for our hometown girl Megan, was the fact that my hubby practically fell off the coach when she stepped out of the limo to meet Jason. Not because she looked stunning in her long, strapless teal dress (which she did, especially for having a baby 14 months ago), but because he was friends with Megan back in high school and had no clue she made the show. But like most people our age, we keep up with ol' friends on Facebook and he knew that she had a gorgeous baby boy, Deacon, but he was pretty shocked to see his former classmate on a reality TV show.

I'm not surprised if you've never heard of Sewickley, PA. It's a small town in Western PA, think "Pleasantville." It's quaint, pretty and definitely has a small-town feel. Megan actually dated my husband's best friend in high school and part of college. So weird.

But, I've been to their hometown Sewickley and their high school Quaker Valley many times, and lemme tell ya, I'm proud of her for venturing out past Western PA! Most kids stick around town and never leave. (Or so it seems.) So we'll have to see how far Megan makes it. I don't want to spoil this season, but according to forums on FansofRealityTV.com, Megan is not one of the final two contestants.

Stay tuned for more...this season already has twists and turns - and the teaser last night showed a preview of newly single DeAnna making a comeback. Dum, dum, dum....

Jason pulled Megan aside from some one-on-one time. He said he definitely feels a connection with Megan and would have given her a rose, even if the other contestants tried to vote her off.
