But, I'll bet there will be new editors in next season. I'll also bet there will be zero leaks if there IS a wedding. I'm sure Fleiss wants to strangle us about now. However, having said this, he should have NEVER approved such an edit.

If they still offer her a televised wedding she will take it. Did you see her practically jump out of the screen when she was asked on an interview. She couldn't contain her excitement when asked. I think ABC and De are going to be in for a huge surprise on Monday night with the backlash, or maybe not and that is why the engagement party was cancelled. Does anybody else find it interesting that she had to clarify once again about her feelings for Graham to Jesse and Jason. You would hope that she has talked about this to Jesse, and he has gotten over it. Something makes me believe that maybe Jesse wasn't completely understanding everything about Graham. Awwww, I feel so bad that Jason is still hurting, but I am not surprised he was gracious and funny. I think more people will fall in love with him after watching that. I will watch that segment of the ATFRC.

Just that he mentioned that HE has been to Greece a couple of times - and he mentioned it in his song as well............

I find it odd that they would Jesse and D a honeymoon to a place that was a 'piece' of the other guys character - that's all - stupid actualy

Maybe she can actually see their love story but because TPTB sold Jason so hard on everyone early on, it blinded some to the slow-building romance of Jesse and De.

By the way, someone took my post about the details and posted it on ABC and they yanked it.

It all comes back to that..how did things end up this way? How do execs who get paid the big bucks with teams of writers, editors, marketers, etc. so totally miss the mark? Plus, in the internet age, they have instant feedback re: what they putting out there. It truly blows my mind.

Don't you all see that you're giving Fleiss EXACTLY what he wants -- attention? It's easy to say you won't watch Monday night ("that'll show HIM!") but most of us will. And meanwhile, he's done an incredible job of stirring the pot, whether the leak about Jesse was intentional or whether he's just exploiting it after it happened (canceling the show, planting messages on this board, etc.)

It's July 4, everybody. And we're all glued to our computer screens arguing about the editing of a reality TV show and who wins. In the end, who cares? Go outside and have fun with your family. By Tuesday no one will care anyway.

I agree, Jammie. I also think that because there wasn't any overtly romantic gestures between DeAnna and Jesse until the HTD's many people were already focused on the romance they saw blossoming with someone else (and people did see it with all of the F4).

One thing I did notice is that Jesse was always the guy that was catering to DeAnna. He jumped up on the bull trick as we saw, he helped her put on her ATV gear in Palm Springs, that same episode he also jumped out of the pool to get a towel for her before anyone else. He showed affection and care, but just not in an overtly romantic way.

I know it's going to be really hard to see Jason get his heart broken and I'm sure once again as I have the past few weeks I'll be shedding more than a tear. But at the same time I hope to see her completely and totally in love with Jesse. Isn't that the concept of the show? To fall in love.

Ok, Jammie any Matt/Shayne scoop? lol

[Capegal]

JAMMIE - are you one of the folks who was in touch with the ex of Jesse?? what was the scoop on that?? Sure makes me wonder if D really was told - or not - about that situation - if it was really true - as folks were led to believe.

Can you expound on that a bit??

Exactly, how cruel could they be to a guy who has done nothing but help their ratings and been nothing but wonderful through this whole process. That makes me sick. If I was DeAnna and Jesse, I would ask for a different location, that is just wrong in so many ways.

It is stupid and tasteless...let's twist the knife a little more. They clearly know that Jason mentions Santorini in his song to her. Again, where are the PR folks in this gig?
