VF gets called back to the hot seat with Peter. So scripted. Both playing the "we grew from this experience" and "appreciate our relationship" ...

Peter is the most accident prone bachelor ever. I have never seen so many falls, spills, accidents with a previous lead.

People are so horrible online, it's truly disgusting.
It's ironic that this segment follows many of the girls up on stage being actually hateful too, to each other. If the show wouldn't actively encourage it, show all the nasty fights and catty moments, it might not get so bad. But they think it's good entertainment, so the show trying to say now that all the hate is terrible, while setting the stage to encourage it, is disingenuous.

The hypocrisy of this is ridiculous. CH and the show encourage this type of behaviour because they encourage these women to hate on each other during the show. They themselves promote the hate and then turn around and pretend they are empowering these women. Ha! Great minds....!!!

I would not be sitting on the ground out in the middle of the Australian bush knowing all the creepy crawlies out there.

Sad world where a 38-year-old woman is considered a senior. Nobody called Arie and Nick grandpa! Just sayin'. (As someone who actually is a senior.)

I was referring to the grandmotherly woman chugging champagne during the credits from the show tonight. She looked to be at least 60 if not more.

I don't know how twitter works., maybe they messaged them elsewhere as well..: - (

I guess I was in such a hurry to be done with that mess of a show that I turned it off before I got to the credits and assumed your post was in response the the one about Clare as the next lead. My apologies!

Judging by the comments, I missed absolutely nothing of importance last night. I might go back and watch the first bit just to see VF get kicked to the curb, but I have no interest in all the other garbage...

I see this in a completely different light. I have been shying away from these threads all season because I have been overwhelmed by the content of the posts and how the rhetoric has escalated over the years. I’d reached a point where it was no longer enjoyable. As someone who had started out at the ABC’s Bachelor/ette forums discussing love - how did we meet our spouses, had we ever been blindsided, did we believe in love at first sight, did we go for a certain type, had friends and family influenced our decisions, what were dealbreakers and what could we look past, etc - I felt involved in lighthearted, constructive conversation. So I was grateful Rachel came on to start this dialogue. She wasn’t just discussing racism. Chris Harrison wasn’t just discussing racism. They were both discussing hate. Chris said something to the degree of this isn’t criticism, it is true hate. And I agree.
I’m not here to call out anyone and I am fully aware that none of the posts that have been bothering me break any of the rules of this forum. That being said, they still don’t make me comfortable. Some of the phrases we saw up on the screen last night were exact or very similar to what I’ve seen here over the past several seasons - emotional stupid bitch, useless, jealous bitch, ugliest girl in the house, pulled the black card, and disgusting.
Honestly, it just confuses me. As much as it has been acknowledged that producers set them up and/or cut and paste scenes, there is still little understanding given to those who are casted. Their behavior, in my mind, is called into question in a manner that is far beyond criticism. And look at how it is affecting them. Look at the tears that were streaming down their faces. Some of them were shaking. Some from other seasons have even taken their own lives. I see no reason, no excuse, and certainly no value for any of this.

The cloak of anonymity emboldens crazy people to say horrible things. I don't know how Twitter works, either, and kind of happy not to know. The show encourages backstabbing and nastiness so it's a bit sanctimonious of them to have Rachel do a PSA. In no way do I think it's okay for viewers to post horribly racist or other nasty things, though.

This show makes sure the girls have plenty to drink and, for the most part they are bored waiting around for a date. That's when they argue and act crazy, and nasty. I haven't bothered with the past two seasons, I'd rather watch the hockey game, and leave the cray cray to others to watch. I flipped to wta a couple of times, and realized I didnt really know anyone.

Fanny, I agree. I lost interest in this show when they got away from acting like a relationship really use to mean something. Back in the (day), season, when Trista couldn't decide between Charlie and her current hubby, it was exciting and fun to watch. You always had catty women, but nothing like the past seasons. I only saw tiny snippets of last night's women tell all, and thought it was a waste of time.

I am glad to hear Claire is the next 'ette. Someone more mature might bring some fresh air into this show. Plus I heard a rumor that Hannah Beast was in negotiations to do it again. That would have been awful. I didn't watch Peter but I will give Claire a chance.

It was ridiculous, they couldn't hear one another.. I was at the hairdresser, and most people are glad the next ' ette is a little older

Once again, Sharleen is spot-on with her take on last night's show. I love her willingness to be honest about the show considering she was on it! She was confused about Kelley's absence too, and thought the show should own some responsibility for the hate seeing as they egg it on, highlight it, cast for it. I find myself looking forward to her articles each week, knowing we're going to get a well thought out and reasonable viewpoint. www.flare.com/bachelor/bachelor-episode-10-recap-peter-season-24-2020/

She's one of my favorites to read. Do you read her alltheprettypandas.com recaps, too? They're fun, because she captures and subtitles GIFs of interesting/controversial bits. She also takes requests for any outfits that contestants wore and people want to know where they can buy them. She's got quite a community of Bachelor fans who have interesting and robust discussions in the comments. It's pretty fun!

Sharleen was seriously too good to ever be on this show, especially when Juan Pablo was the lead! As soon as we saw even a little bit of her on that season, I wondered what the hell she was doing there. She was WAY out of his league.....and frankly, way out of the league of any other Bach thus far.

I didn't watch this season, but watched a bit of WTA. Peter seems like a super whiny. The women seem particularly immature and catty. Glad I sat this one out.

I missed the first half hour of the 3/2 show so was shocked to see Victoria F. at the WTA. I was sure that Madison had gone home. I’m getting the impression that she is the one who gets the final rose. I am totally unimpressed by her (or actually any of them, including Peter). But the thing that annoys me the most about Madi is the way she constantly twists and contorts her mouth in a very unattractive way. I don’t see a long lasting relationship for them.
By the way. who is Claire? I didn’t see her being announced as the next Bachelorette.
