The Bachelorette 5: Spoilers and Speculation

LilysMom ·
I have been researching since Monday, and have narrowed down the pack. There will be screen caps to follow(once I find small enough ones) That clearly point out who the final 3 are. There are also screen caps of the four home town dates which have been matched to the area's of the men. So far we have for HTD's: Mike (one of the new five) who threw the ball to Jillian and said "You are a great catch" Reid (another of the new five) He was not shown in the first episode, except receiving his rose. They are speculating that he is getting the "hidden edit" Kiptyn the first man highlighted in the first episode. Wes the singer, although it is also being speculated that he is the one with a girlfriend and he is let go on the HTD's. There is also speculation that something goes horribly awry on the HTD's, and Jake comes back, setting it up for 5 HTD's. The F3 are taken to Spain, there are screen caps to show them, the 3 in Spain are Reid, Mike, and Kiptyn. More to follow!!!

Yessssssssssssssssssssssssss. I would not mind staring at him for the entire season... I think the guy with the baseball line was kind of a ******* at first, but I'm willing to give him a chance.

*******, ha! Jillian and Kiptyn sittin' in a tree...K-I-S-S-I-N-G! Kiptyn FTW! Only because I, like molds, want to have some eye candy around if I am going to stick it out all season. :)

He was good looking, I wouldn't mind seeing him every Monday night on my TV. Anyone know if this season will be a little longer because there are more guys? Or will there be more cuts than usual each week? Hhhmmm.... I liked the guy they highlighted who works with his architect mom, but I can't remember who he was...I just thought it was cute interaction with his mom. I honestly can't even remember if he stuck around...I tend to forget who they are a lot on the first episdoe.

The general contractor originally from Argentina and now living in Santa Monica is Juan.

From all the screen caps Juan should be there for a while.

Juan looks like he's 12. He has such a baby face. It's a very nice looking baby face though.

He was actually one of the older ones, I think he said he was 35. Yep he is 35, according to his bio at ABC.com.

There have been a lot of rumors that Jillian does not pick an F1, at this point there has not been a final rose ceremony yet. I cannot verify because they are still filming, but here is an article with Jillian. Entertainment News Bachelorette Jillian Harris Considers No Engagement Atlanta, GA 5/14/2009 10:51 PM GMT (TransWorldNews) Jillian Harris hasn’t accepted a proposal on The Bachelorette as filming has not finished, but the restaurant designer admits she is unsure if she will even chose one guy in the end.
“I can’t tell you whether it would end in marriage. But all of the people that I have left are remarkable people and I have not met anybody like these guys,” Harris says. The Canada native says she is considering following in the some-what controversial footsteps of Bachelor Brad Womack and not choosing a fiancé. “Yes that’s something I’ve been thinking about a lot. There’s nobody saying that I have to get engaged,” she says. “It's so difficult to know how to choose the right person in the end. And as you know I have not chosen that person yet, so I'm still struggling with that decision,” Harris added. The Bachelorette premieres this Monday on ABC. The season kicks off with the traditional cocktail party, only this time Harris will choose from 30 guys instead of the normal 25.

She is definitely speaking out a lot differently than we have seen in the past. Jason was all "YES I'm engaged!" and she is being very secretive. I don't know if that's a good thing or not, although she absolutely has a point that she doesn't have to get engaged.

At this point from what I have gathered they are still not done filming, so there is a chance that she will pick someone. But....when it comes to anything Mike Fleiss, I have learned that he does not do anything without a reason behind it. Once I read that article and Saw "Brad Womack" once again that poor man has been raked threw the coals. Although he did not choose anyone, at least he had the composure to not lie. For Jillian to put it out there that she might be following in his footsteps already...there is something really fishy going on here.

Hopefully she is trying to avoid Jason's mistake of choosing one then changing his mind. Or do what several have done, and say I choose to continue a relationship with you, but not get engaged at this moment.

I think I read that filming ended 2 or 3 weeks ago. Could be wrong though!

Chris Harrison wrote in his blog today that they just finished wrapping up filming the FRC yesterday. There is also alot of speculation out there that Jake was slated to be the next Bachelor, but they decided to use him on Jillians show.

Is it me or does Kiptyn remind anyone of Graham Bunn of DeAnna's season?

Similar facial features and complexion, but Kiptyn seems to be a little more full-faced and perhaps taller. I get you point. He certainly is not as reserved as Graham appeared around the cameras, although I here he was a different guy away from the cameras.

I can see that. Hopefully he ends up nothing like Graham. Just curious V, do you know if people thought he was more or less personable away from the cameras? Something about him had me disliking him right away.

"He?" Graham or Kiptyn ? Graham is a guys guy. Deanna was completely wrong for him and him for her. He needed one of Andy Baldwin's more athletic ladies, more outgoing but deferential. I've not had any contact with this season... washed my hands of them after last season, so I have no info on Kiptyn. Sorry.

Do they always start airing the show before they are done filming? Also do you think that Jake will be the next Bachelor since he is not chosen.

The "Women/Men Tell all " and "After the Final Rose" is what is usually only remaining to shoot after the show begins airing.

So why did they start Jillian's season early?

Why do you think it was shot early? It is reasonably within the standard shooting schedule for past seasons where I've been involved with show casting.

No I meant it started airing so early if the filming was not finished.

ABC needed it to fill the ratings hole left by the end of Dancing with the Stars. That is the traditional Bachelor/Bachelorette time slot.

I would guess that with the additional 5 guys cast, that would put the end of filming a few days back, which means that final bit was taped after the airing of the show.

Ok I understand thanks for clarifiying!

Anyone else want to punch Dave? Hopefully from the previews for next week it looks like Jillian is catching on. Also get to see the girlfriend drama play out!

Only since the show started and I saw he was from Ohio. It just explains so much...

No... The guy thrives on attention. I would prefer to alternately ignore him or laugh directly in his face then walk away.
