Ah, remember when “The Men Tell All” was the highlight of our reality TV lives? Those spicy moments are feeling like a distant memory now!
It seems this season of The Bachelorette decided to take a little vacation from the drama, because honestly, this episode could’ve been a simple email — or perhaps a brief little appendix to the season finale.
Did we really need a full two hours for this? I mean, come on! Even Sam M. sitting in the hot seat felt like a soggy sock — just… BIG sigh!
Before diving headfirst into the gents’ lackluster revelations, we’re greeted by Grant, who cheerfully announces to his mom that he’s primed to be the next bachelor. Adorable! I can practically see him blushing through the screen. He’s genuinely endearing — a quality that can be hard to come by in this franchise. It’s almost charming to witness how nervous and overwhelmed he is — kind of like watching a puppy chase its own tail.
Next, Jesse introduces the contestants who’ve bothered to show up for this circus, and honestly, I can’t help but wonder, who even is Ricky? The memory of these guys from earlier episodes is fading faster than my hopes for this season!
But wait! We’ve got an all-important final two to determine! A flashback to Hawaii shows Devin knocking on Jenn’s door. Look, I want to defend Devin—totally get where he’s coming from—but boy, does he put Jenn in a bit of a pickle here! It’s almost as if he’s placed a giant ‘I Love You’ sign over her head while she’s still juggling a million other feelings.
Jenn is caught in a web of emotional chaos, trying to sift through her feelings while Devin’s demanding affirmation of love like it’s some sort of game show prize. Adorable in theory, but during this bachelorette process? Not so much.
