In roughly chronological order but shots went FAST so I'm sure I missed things.  Feel free to add.

Are these the same girl?  Hair and fingers look like a match.  Much physical attraction. F2? Or F1 and an obvious edit?

wow the whole styling is just so ... cheap looking

@leavers  Indeed.  

What do you reckon; will this finally kill it?  Last season ever?

probably, although the failure of the Love Boat means they might need to keep it around because of their minimum AU content requirements perhaps?
If the Bachelor draws in more viewers than tRLB did even though it's during summer, they'll probably have no choice but to keep beating that dead horse

@leavers That's a really good point.  It's 55% minimum during prime time isn't it?  You're right, Ch 10 would probably think it's easier to regurgitate a known (though failing) formula than come up with something new, especially with TRLB going down like the Titanic. 

Out of interest I checked out the most recent ratings.  Food, reno & quiz shows, H&A and the big winner, a PG sitcom on ABC.  On consolidated data, Ch 10 doesn't have a single show in the Top 20!  Time for a big re-think at the network IMO - they're clearly out of touch.

Anyway, getting back to this mess () I reckon the SCs of Jed crying are manufactured reshoots.  When they did that Project promo in May his hair was a greyish-blond.  At the airport in September (presumably after reshoots) it was shorter and noticeably more yellow.


During filming in May:





At the airport in September:





Screenshots from first ad:




Looks more like the airport pics to me.  His hair is going to be a dead giveaway for stuff filmed later to pad out/invent storylines, IMO.

ooh yeah that's going to be so easy to tell what's a reshoot hahahaha

Yeah Ten is just not great right now. I think funnily enough their long running MO being the more youthful of the three FTA networks is what's now letting them down - anyone who is Gen Z, millennial or younger gen X mostly don't watch any tv, while Seven and Nine are quite comfortable appealing to older audiences already so haven't lost as much. Ten will have to start looking to catch the older gen X and boomers if they're going to get any ratings. (and clearly I guess that means free to air TV in general is on its last legs...)

@leavers Spot on

Off Topic: Are you watching Love Island?  I didn't realise it had started and am just catching up.  Love an unironic mo & mullet combo (hence new avi )

@Bobette thanks for all the s/caps and statistics. I didn't realize how bad the ratings are.

Love the mullet!

I haven't watched it, no. I have caught up on Love Triangle (the people on it are so awful and yet I can't look away) and am now working through Love in the Flesh.

@leavers Great I look forward to hearing your thoughts

Knowing the way TPTB work, I'm guessing this is Jed telling his F1 he's picking her but only wants to date (no proposal, and probably split shortly after) and the other two with their F2s giving them the kiss-off.  In other words, no alleged "brides to be" pictured here, IMO.
