Momma's Boys

Looks like the mommas are having their way on this new twist of the dating game. The score, Momma's 2 bachelor son 1. Michael's mom Lorraine is dead set against plastic beauty Michelle. Ok so the girl does have bad, bad credit, or as she likes to say, "I love shopping and plastic surgery!" And so what if not a single thing on her body is authentic. If Michael wanted something real he would have stayed off TV reality shows. Well, after mother Lorraine got to peek in Michelle's bio on the episode which featured a glass trunk with all the contestants bios, credit reports and other salacious gossip, Mother Lorraine's worst fears were confirmed. She immediately told Michael that Michelle was not for him. I didn't think Michael would cave into her pressure but Mother Lorraine had her way and Michelle was sent packing in Monday's night episode. No trip to the Caribbean for her. Can't wait for Lorraine to find out that her favorite girl, Erica, was Penthouse Pet of the Year. Whoa!

The worst momma of all time and tops my list of would be momma in law from hell is Mrs. B and her pure racist attitude. Jojo clearly was attracted to black beauty Misty. She looks like an Olympic star. When Jojo takes Misty out on a one on one date, Mrs. B goes on a rampage. She summons a helicopter to take her where her son is. Namely in a hot tub locking lips with Misty. As the helicopter hovers over, Misty and Jojo pause for a split second, could that be Mrs. B up there? Nah! Wrong! Mrs. B was so mad she could spit. She rants and raves and then cries. How could he do this to me? Please will someone tell her, that somewhere in this world she would be considered ethnic herself? (I think she's Lebanese). When Mrs. B comes back to the mansion, gee go figure, she finds solace in the comfort of two black girls in the house. They try to appease her and calm her down, very brave of them! It seemed like maybe some enlightening was taking place and that she would come around and see through that racist haze. One could only hope. Nah, think again. When Jojo comes back, she tries to tell him Misty is not for him, but Jojo says, he likes Misty. Elimination night and one could only hope that Jojo would stand up to his mother. But he didn't. Another cave in. Mrs. B even went so far as to not give her ticket to another girl there and ripped it in half. She's just downright mean. Poor Jojo, he should have ran away from home a long time ago.

The one son that did stand up to his mother, was Rob. He managed to ask Camilla to come with him to the Caribbean, much to Esther's pleading that he should marry a nice Jewish girl. Oye vey! Can't wait to see the fireworks next week.-Single D

The Bachelor-Jason Single Dad Looking for a Wife

OK, I was really torn last season when DeAnna surprised everyone and chose the snowboarder (what was his name?) over the single dad. The last two bachelors standing were the oddest pairing of the bunch. Who knew DeAnna would be drawn to wild hair and crazy shoes? I think maybe she was afraid of the built in family that came with accepting the ring from Jason. We secretly knew it wasn't going to last. It was like pairing an Airedale with a Chihuahua. And it appears that her romance with that crazy snowboarder might have been short lived as we see from the previews that she tries to make a come back with Jason in future episodes. The question here is will she make a fool of herself on national TV for a third time? We know how silly previous bachelorettes look by going back.

Jason has really buffed up for this stint on the bachelor, pumping up his muscles and six pack abs. WOW, ok, maybe he's not so wimpy this time around, which he appeared to be last season. There are shots of him which make him downright appealing, not quite the measure of yummy in my book, but still appealing on the sweet side. It's just that he has a funny walk, kinda of gawky teen boy like.

As always in the beginning, I'm not inspired by the looks of the talent pool. The interior designer from British Columbia looks ok and seems pretty well balance. Melissa, two words, ding-dong and what's up with Miss Illinois polishing furniture in her crown and sash? I think the prettiest bachelorettes are Nikki and Miss Brazil, Raquel teaching our Jason how to samba. Renee looks like a bobble head and the dental hygienist is of the nerd herd set. What's up with her too white teeth, they look totally fake and why did she do that fake teeth stunt? Doesn't she remember the bachelorette that made fake teeth out of orange peel for bachelor Travis only to make herself look like a fool and get kicked off. And whose the airhead telling Jason that she sells toe implants? Awkward! I think Jason looked a little ill at ease with some of the women, at least he passed the hot dog test posed to him by Jillian, him being a mustard on my hot dog man.

I was really disappointed when Jason sent one of the prettiest bachelorettes packing, Miss thing in Ty's favorite color orange dress. She didn't get her alone time with him. She should have been more aggressive. Well at least she gets to keep the gift she had for him, I hope she kept the receipt. Looks like this season is going to be really good, but can he really find love and a mother for his child on a TV reality show? Odds aren't good.-Single D
