I am a total chicken. I found this Ed friendly thread, and I haven't wandered off of it. I do read at the abc board for the show, and it's brutal.

Its sometimes hard to defend your favorite when your in the minority

Did anyone else catch the part in the grapevine sneak peek about Ed wanting the night to go perfect on the LCD?
I think it's more than just the chemistry thing, which is absolutely a non issue..please , these two are so" on fire" together..
There is more to it, his wanting it to go perfect ..in a good way I'm saying ..
Just a theory I have.. Yep.

Yes Jilly is dancing too. Her father Glen, her cousin, Jilly and Ed are dancing around all in one shot then Jilly asks Ed to join in with Glen. They are hilarious together you have to see it.

Ed's VO and PI shots are priceless he says all the right things. He really fits in is the result. And her cousin as mentioned up thread, WOW, how beautiful!

I saw the clip... I loved it.
I was just wondering if Grannie was there dancing, in her skirt.
And someone said they thought they saw her.
I had a theory about the brilliant ending that Ed got Grannie there since she wasn't there earlier at Meet the parents.. That's all.
And yes, I mentioned earlier that Jills cousin is Gorgeous!

One thing that really thrilled me was to find out Ed and Jillian's families play cards. That may seem like a small thing, but that was a huge thing in both our families, my Ed and I. In fact, our first date, we went bike riding then came home and played Scrabble. We played cards with Ed's parents and mine for years. When our daughter was looking for her soul mate, I said to make sure his family played cards!

The dancing was just the sweetest thing ever!

That was not scripted fun! That was the real thing!

I've been trying to find the preview clip, and I can't find it.
On the alphabet board "Bachelorette" page, something says "loading", but it never loads....It must be somewhere else.
I have the alphabet board software....but I need to find the preview.

Check on tv grapevine. That is where I saw it. I had to let it download first & then watch it otherwise the play back went faster than the download and there were lots of skips...Enjoy!

Thanks!
I just saw both clips, and I enjoyed them very much.
The one on G...V.....was different than the alphabet board sneek peak.
In the first preview, the scenes are mainly in the water, and both Ed and Kip make comments.
In the second clip, there are the questions that Jillian's Mom has for Ed.
Then comes the wonderful scene on the beach when Ed and the whole family, including Jillian's cousin, are doing the hula together.
Yes, the scene where Ed and Jillian's Dad are dancing together is so funny and priceless.
It's a wonderful clip.

I just thought you all would enjoy what I just posted over on the spoiler thread 'who will get the final rose?'.

It compiles every thing we have been discussing for the last day or so. Hope you enjoy this.

I don't know how the FRC plays out. It seems noone knows. TPTB have given us a terrific season to watch. There have been so many twists and turns. I do not have a favorite but must give you my observations.

This week I believe TPTB are unveiling the invisible bachelor a little at a time.
It started Monday night at MTA. It has continued with Jillian's interviews and CH's tweets. Also have you seen the sneak preview at abc.com? It is terrific.

OK now ready for the invisible bachelor. It is the one and only a little nerdy but always fun Ed.

Follow the facts with me. At the MTA we see outtakes of drunken but fun Ed. Normally a drunk would be cut at tne next RC but not Ed. Jillian's interviews are explaining the infamous E.D. FD and what really happened. They were both sunburned and the lotion was aloe vera. They stayed awake all night talking and one of the subjects was his ex-gf's. CH twittered that the gf issue would be addressed during the finale. At her interview on Jimmy Kimmel, Jillian told us about drunken Ed and how she see's her guy maybe not always able to handle his beer but always fun. She described Ed as the guy you want to invite to a wedding. Jimmy responds - yea but - not as the groom. Jillian responds 'Ah come on'. Finally the sneak preview, it covers Ed's MTP day. We see mom asking complex questions and Ed wiping his face. Then they break to Jillian, her father Glenn, her gorgeous cousin and the one and only alway fun Ed dressed in grass hula skirts with cocanut bras and doing the hula (remember Reid's hula out take). Jillian asks Ed to join her father. Ed moves over they dance hip to hip and Ed says 'Forget Jillian, your mine Glenn'. It is the most fun thing all season but it may not make the finale episode since it is in a preview. That would be sad. Also Ed has VO and PI's in which he says all the right things. The result is he wants to and Jillian says he really fits in with my family. Keep in mind in her Mancow interview on June 8th when asked about abs Jillian said, "Actualy, I preffer my man a little softer now".

TPTB are just getting started with this media campaign. It cleans up Ed's image shows him to fit more and more of what Jillian had on that infamous list. It replaces everyones vision of the all business workaholic. And it gives us a lovable genuine man that can keep up with our Jillian at work or at play. You might just be seeing the ending of a true 'Love Story'. My compliments a job well done to TPTB.

If it turns out to be someone else that's ok with me but what my mind and logiic tell me is the invisible bachelor is ED. I can't wait till Monday to watch.

Awesome!! Bravo...I think that's the brightest thing I have read on any of these posts on these boards...I think you've got it.
