The Bachelorette: Why HER?
Recap and Commentary by RTVC Staff Writer Jocelyn Anne

Ashley Herbert
She drives me nuts.
I watched The Bachelorette last night.

Here’s the thing: I’ve been a devoted Bachelor and Bachelorette watcher for more seasons than I should probably admit to at this point, but I swore after last season, that if Ashley H. was chosen, that I would be done.

Over it. Disgusted.

I joined right in the ranks of all the adamant fans protesting the idea that ABC just might dare to pick her and that we – the loyal fans and followers – would all be insanely irate and irritated.

Got thoughts? Post them at the end.

And sure enough, Jimmy Kimmel came ‘round and introduced her as the newest, best, WORST Bachelorette. Fantastic.

I did stay strong. Heck, I didn’t even watch it on opening night.

But yesterday, I caved. What IS it about this show that’s so dang irresistible? After all, when I think about it, it’s a rather repulsive show on so many levels.

Really, you’re dating 25 people?

Really, you take a helicopter to get to your evening date?

Really, you’re going to spend the night with your top “picks”?

And I wasn’t happy that she looked fitter than fit. But I was, happy that Bentley existed and that he happened to have the guts to say that he’s umm… not attracted to her, but he IS competitive.

Why do I hate her so? I’m not entirely sure.

Maybe it’s that she’s too bubbly. Too optimistic. Too naïve. Too “not-smart”?

Whatever. Anyway, let’s get to the point. So, in my mind, since I’m clearly not the biggest Ashley H. fan out there, here are some of the bigger, better highlights.
