I also think Ben did it for the publicity and to set up his next run as the lead.  Still find it ironic that he has turned into the publicity hound and Lauren has gone back to a normal life... not living it on SM.

That's what I meant when I asked if his g/f was ok with all this because apparently he is still dating her. It's not like he broke up with her, and didn't go back. Ashley made a comment that Luke's relationship was strange because she never see's him making out.

It was probably a "fake break-up".

I wish they didn't eliminate anybody, just let them all stay and see if they connect. It would take the pressure off. Its only 4 episode.

Oh I just love Yuki, she is the best.

He liked this tweet.

Personally, I'd more thank ok never seeing him make out or kiss #smallblessings #justacceptthemAshley

Ashley drinks the Ben and Luke koolaid.

She drank the Nick koolaid too. Is there any male in bachelor nation whose koolaid she hasn't drunk?

Good observation, @stuckinsc I think she would drink the Koolaid of anyone who offered it to her. I also don't think this relationship with Kevin will last. JMHOFWIW.

Just finished episode 2 and absolutely loved it - it would have been completely perfect if it had no Ashley and more of the Kiwis and Aussies.

I really believe in second chances so I am giving Jordan a pass. I thought he presented very well and I could definitely see the sparks with Bibiana. Didnt notice her on Aris season but she is a cool chick and I hope we see more of them.

IMO they are focusing too much on the Americans - I’d like to see more of Yuki, Stasi and the other internationals.

And I’m gutted that they are only screening 4 episodes.

Can someone please tell me what the screening schedule is please.

@Katiebelle tuesday and thursday at 8pm eastern time. It's only 4 episodes though so it ends next thursday, the reunion airs right after the final episode.

Given Ben doesn't seem like he gets any dates at all, I'm wondering if Ben trying to get sympathy to be the lead again crying is from him leaving and explaining his reasons to the rest of the group? 

I could see Ben acting like it's still hard (talking about being "broken" regarding Lauren) so viewers feel extra bad for him when he leaves. Basically milking it even more when leaving and then a few months later he is ready again for the lead gig

I agree @Katiebelle, I'd like to see more of the internationals too although I have to say I think Court & Lily have had a dream run so far - they seem to be having a ball in the background and not having to play out any of TPTB's "storylines".

I also think Jordan came across pretty well.  Good to hear a genuine kiwi accent too!  I'm surprised they let him say all that about the final 2 knowing he wasn't into either of them because it's pretty much admitting the ending was faked.

I wonder if his comments will cause a stir in NZ?  His F1 might have a bit of explaining to do.  Or did they admit that already? I did have to LOL at Lily saying he's got a "bad reputation" considering they're mates and were hanging out before filming.
