Every season's bloopers include the girls screaming about bugs. #TheBachelor

I know I may be asking the impossible but my dvr didn't record the episode tonite and I am so mad.  Is there a live stream of it right now?

Becca is getting a TON of support on Twitter/IG/FB (The Bachelor page) to be the next Bachelorette.

Why are the Fan Forums closed right now?

Not sure, but someone uploads it on You Tube tomorrow. Search The Bachelor. He name is AnnMarie.

Yeah, I know that all leads do it to a certain extent as it's their job but the way that Ben is doing it just makes me feel really uncomfortable. You can see the producers plotting "We want her to completely give Ben her heart, so when he picks Lauren it will destroy her even more". And, he's just going along with it completely! I'm not Jojo's biggest fan, but the way Ben and the producers are messing with her sucks, as she really seemed to trust him. IMO.

Thank You, but I am so disappointed right now because I have been waiting for Ben and Lauren's date all week.

Nevermind. I see what I did wrong.

All threads related to the current season that is airing, are locked until the West Coast views the episode. This keeps the conversation in one thread.

So happy that Becca's finally gone. She of all people should know that getting blindsided is part of the show. Ben didn't owe her anything. She barely shows emotion even when she's supposed to be feeling it so not sure how she could be a good lead.  

I loved Lauren's date. It had everything but I especially liked seeing them with the kids. They were both great with them. I though it was meaningful because it's the kind of date I could see Ben having irl. I really think they're sweet together.

I liked Jojo's date and can believe he has strong feelings for her in the end. I like them together but not quite as much. Cute date but think I'd have wanted dinner elsewhere. She still seems to be holding back even after their talk.

The group date part was lame and seemed very short before the rose. I did like Ben with Caila. Becca just annoyed me with her begging for validation. I just don't see Ben with Amanda and her voice still drives me a little crazy.

The RC seemed normal after trying to make it seem something happened. It didn't seem to me like Becca was ever getting a HTD so not sure what happened.

It's not any different to how Chris lead on Kaitlyn and Jade, Sean lead on Lindsay, Ashlee and Des, Ben F lead on Lindzi, Nicki, and Kacie, ect... every single season the lead encourages the F4 girls to completely open up to them and every season 2-3 girls are left blindsided and heartbroken. It sucks and I wish Ben didn't go along with what the producers want so transparently, but it's not like he's the first one to do it.

Yep. He's a big time people pleaser imo and will do as authority tells him to keep the peace and be the golden child. I'm a huge fan of his but I've definitely seen this in him starting with the games he was willing to play to become the lead in the first place. Oh well. No one is perfect. He's pretty close
