Bachelor In Paradise Australia - Season 2 - Media SM - *Sleuthing Spoilers*

Totally agree.  Just reading over what was written in that Elle article upthread reminded me that Flo goes for Bill but he ends up with Alex.  Could be setting her up for Bette Lead as suggested by @Agent99 here.

Screwed over two seasons in a row so deserves her own show? I could see it....

I had practically forgotten this show even exists.  When is it due to air again - March or May?  I can't even remember...

DM are trying to drum up some interest in the Alex/Richie "showdown" but the wording "doesn't go to plan" makes me think he'll just shrug his shoulders and not care and/or be the bigger person and it doesn't produce any drama hence presumably why Alex had to pursue Bill to stay on the show (and get her 10x paycheque).  Why they thought she was worth spending money on is beyond me.

@Bobette  I had forgotten too. I think it airs end of March beginning of April like the past season. The time from filing to airing is too long I don't even care or have interest especially knowing none of them are likely together anyway    

IA that Richie doesn't care. Alex brings drama that's why they wanted her imo and I am sure she delivered. She's so annoying I have zero interest in watching her. This season seems a bust and it hasn't even aired yet  

ETA: not sure about Flo for bachelorette. But I guess if they can go with Ali they can go with Flo and her "third times the charm"? I don't think it will go over well with audiences and I can see TPTB going with an unknown like they did with Matt.

Finally. There is promo on IG. It’s all about to kick off. Yay

I don't remember voting cat or Alisha as my favs y'all must have imagined that.

"Favourites???"   Only one favourite on that list IMO - the girls were pretty much universally despised.

Feeling totally "meh" about this season but any crap bachie is better than no bachie so let's get it over with.  

IMO Flo's edit will clue us in to whether she's Bette or not but IA @AllAboutLove I'd much rather see an unknown.

Wow, having the past Bachelor and his F1 on BIP, would never happen in the States, I'm in

@Bobette IKR The comments are all against the three "favorites". Yup a crap bachie is better than none  

Good point about Flo's edit. Like you said, it's a perfect set up if so. I noticed they only asked for men to sign up and usually the ask both men and women for the Bette so it could be they've already picked their Bette  Will have to watch what happens on BIP!

too true! I think Richie (past Bach) never knew Alex was going to be on so it was a surprise to him but I don't think it goes down with drama from what we've sleuthed and what's been reported he likely wishes her the best and moves on. Still makes for awkward TV 

I do wish for Richie to find his person, but not on this show. He's showing some abs and looking hot on his IG lately. Hope he man all the way up.

Weren't Jake and Vienna on the same season of ... oh my, I can't remember the name now of the previous reincarnation of BIP? I think it was when she hooked up with protect your heart guy.

They are already hyping the Richie/Alex thing so much, and I'm sure it’s going to completely fizz. Alex will work hard to give them what they want, but I can see Richie having a care factor of zero, and not playing along. 
Alex and Bill are just going to be pukeworthy aren’t they? Can’t really see them going with Flo as the Bette, unless she gets a cracking edit on BIP this time around.
