Okay... I have to admit it...I am watching this season of 'The Bachelor.' I can't help it. It's a horrible show, but it's like a bad train wreck that I can't peel my eyes away from. So I tivo it and watch it when I'm folding laundry or doing some mundane task.
So does anyone watch it? I'm assuming not. But if you do, please comment. Come on...I need to know I'm not alone.
I have tried to figure out why I am watching it. What I can't figure out is why any self-respecting woman would go on this show. (You might be wondering why any self-respecting woman would watch it.) I just don't get why anyone would intentionally put herself in a house with over 20 other woman to all try and go after the same guy. I have to believe that a good majority of them just want to be on t.v. Surely that is the case. That would explain why so many of these girls decide to sing, yes SING, to the Bachelor. Girls...can you imagine being on a date and just start breaking out into song to impress your date???? Seriously...there was a girl on there tonight who busted out into "SUMMERTIME" in an operatic style. HORRIFIC. Oh, this just in...as I am watching it, she just got kicked off. Yes, there is justice. Oh, and she is crying. Oh wait, one of the other girls that sang just got kicked off. Okay...good. This guy isn't crazy after all. Oh, but the girl is...she misses her cat. Oh MY GOSH... She can't wait to hear her cat purr again...the cat is the "love of her life."
Okay - please tell me you are starting to see why I am watching this. I guess in the end, it just makes me feel better about myself. I am pathetic.

wow... you really do trust us to love you unconditionally.... ;). Can't say I've ever watched the Bachelor, but I have watched Flavor of Love before... does that count?
mmm..... i watch it. i hate that i do.
and so does my bff (i will not use her name and sell her out)
This is the first season I haven't watched. I was a "closet Bachelor Fan" but last season upset me so much (does that sound lame or what, a TV show upsetting me) so I decided that I wouldn't watch anymore HOWEVER I totally understand the want to watch it. And yes, I think they just want TV time because I can't imagine putting myself through that EVER.
I'm not a Bachelor fan - I have caught glimpses of it over the years but never watched an entire episode. I can definitely see how it's addicting. But, as Diane mentioned - there are a LOT of shows that are worse: Rock of Love, Surreal Life, The Girls Next Door, any movie on the Lifetime Movie Network (you know the ones - they always star the Mom from Growing Pains) or that really horrible lie detector show (that I believe will inevitably serve as the catalyst of someone committing suicide some day) and then of course the worst one ever: How to Marry a Millionaire (gotta hand it to Darva Conger for being the most public gold-digger ever; how pathetic is that? I'm remember the idiotic bride's name!). So it could be worse...
My guilty pleasure is the movie Dumb & Dumber. Every time it's on TV I have to stop whatever I'm doing and watch the entire thing. I think I can recite the entire movie...
ok, if i'm totally honest, i have watched several episodes of the millionaire matchmaker on bravo that heidi is talking about. maybe i do beat you in the "tv confession of shame" department...
I totally watch the show. I don't really have too much of an opinion about it. I watch it cause I don't have too much else to do. I guess I could spend that time reading a book or going to the gym. Whenever I watch it I just thing about how strange it would be to try and date someone on a "game show". Thats what i think it is. . a game show. It's a joke and thats why I love it.
