Во многих сезонах "злодеи" и "злодейки" бывают симпатичны ГГ. Но Коринне, по моему, самая раздражающая, даже кусочек из следующего выпуска уже выше крыши и даже Оливия сказала, что по сравнению с Коринне все остальные "злодейки" меркнут. Ну реально уже она надоела в самом начале сезона, жаль, что она нравится Нику... :ph34r:

Episode 2
"Can you tell me? You literally— I would never say a word about it and they wouldn't even know that I knew." —Christen (to Liz), who forgot she was mic'ed, and who evidently later forgot she said this.

MANSION MOVE-IN
We kick off Episode 2 with the copy-and-paste formula of every Episode 2: a montage of ITMs and shots of the women talking about how hot they think the lead is and how he's all they can think about. I've always hated this tradition as it really supports the old school perception that this show features only crazy girls who are insta-obsessed with the lead...

FIRST GROUP DATE

The first Group Date is a photoshoot led by a photographer who seems to equate "engaging into character" with taking their clothes off. Nick once again breaks that 4th wall by straight-up coming out and saying what we've all been thinking for years...

The Corinne hilarity begins as she—the one assigned a BIKINI as her wedding dress—is somehow jealous of Brittany's outfit...

Um, less is more?

My favorite shoot of the date was the 80s themed wedding. I mean, this is just adorable...

Despite my wondering if Corinne's poor sportsmanship was played up with editing, she proved me wrong with this petulant moment...


While the photographer" is about to name his winner, there's the most butchered voiceover I think I've ever heard...

Corinne's "prize" is yet another photoshoot of kissing while her housemates are forced to watch on. Yeah, I know this was presumably followed by a bit of 1-on-1 time, but still. This prize—making out in plain sight of the other women—is typically the very transgression held against contestants and the lead for their lack of consideration...

At the Cocktail Party, Raven stands out to me in a good way. In general, she is frequently shown just observing, and frankly behaves in the way I imagine I would given any situation. She never over-emotes and she's never physically in the front of the pack seeking the spotlight. Also, she's analytical...

I totally understand what Raven's getting at here. Look, guys who are only assholes have never been my thing, but guys who speak their mind are. In fact, there are probably a few people on this planet who think Andy is an asshole; obviously I don't think so, but he's both opinionated and a brutal mind-speaker, and I can see a lot of people (especially those who don't agree with his opinions) being rubbed the wrong way and chalking that up to him being an asshole. (For the record, he is the most doting, understanding, and supportive partner I've ever had, and I've been with men who were a lot less "asshole"-ish than him.) A lot of women routinely go for the asshole but can't differentiate what the actual trait is that they keep being drawn to. Kudos to Raven for getting it.

Also, since a few of you have mentioned liking Andy's commentary, when Raven told Nick she'd walked in on her ex-boyfriend with another girl, Nick asked, "What did you learn from that?" From our sofa, Andy responded, "To not walk in on other girls getting boned by my boyfriend?” I thought this was pretty funny.
