Agreed. I kept thinking and hearing from others "Maybe next episode"... I haven't seen her as F1 material, and her edit has sort of boggled me. That's not saying she isn't - only that they did a poor job of conveying it imo.

No two people convey their emotions the same way, so just because Melissa's bawls and gushes, doesn't mean she's more emotionally invested than the others [not that it would matter if she were].

So as far as being led on, whether Melissa or the viewers, it's all a matter of what you see. I'm sure Mel fans would be ticked, but people who have Molly or Jillian as their fave wouldn't. And people without a fave wouldn't give a hoot. And because they are all great girls, the casual viewer probably won't care much either, beyond "Ohhh I thought he'd pick this one or that one."

Anyway, jmo.

ITA, I am a Mel fan but I do see the connections with Jillian & Molly. The only reason I would be disappointed is because of the screen caps, indicates Melissa as F1.

That's my take.

Oh, and heads up...there's a new post by RS.

I just made this very point in another thread - just because Molly isn't all over Jason and being all whiney and clingy doesn't mean that they don't have a great connection.

He also backed off or clarified his statements about the scriptedness of the show.

Re: What's up with that edit??!!

he says there's 2 or 3 degrees of seperation. That NOONE has picked up on what he has written but if we go back and read all that he has wrote someone should pick up on it.

2/3 has two meanings.
I think 1 is the 2 or 3 degrees of seperation.....


and noone has guessed the 2/3 clues or montreal
