THE BACHELORETTE: Hannah B. Gives One Gent The Boot; Then Hands Out First Impression Rose

PhotoL ABC

The new season of The Bachelorette kicked-off on ABC Monday night, as America gets set to watch the former Miss Alabama, Hannah Brown look for love.  Will she succeed with the 30 suitors who showed up to try to “wow” her with the typical and cornball antics we come to expect from this reality-competition series?

As in previous seasons, the franchise also had some friends around to offer advice and support through the journey.  This time, there was a bit of espionage going down to try to lift the episode.  Hannah’s buds, Demi Burnett and Katie Morton (from the Colton Underwood season of The Bachelor where we first heard Hannah B. roar) tried to snuff out a contestant.  Demi revealed she was contacted on social media by someone telling her that one of Hannah’s potential suitors said that he would be back home with his girlfriend right after he was done with the show.

It was revealed to be the “duplicitous” Scott, a software sales executive, who earlier tried to impress Hannah by picking out what their dream house would look like.

Chris Harrison interrupted Hannah’s first cocktail party and brought her outside to the van, where Demi and Kate were staked out.  Then, Demi lowered the boom on Hannah and said,  “I read messages between the girlfriend and her friends of her talking about how they saw each other Monday before he came and they’re going to be together whenever this is all over, and they’re going to go on a trip together.”

Hannah stormed back into the mansion and demanded to talk with Scott alone.  She started with “I knew you were nervous coming in today … it might be because you have a girlfriend!”

Scott tried to deny the accusation.  Then sorta, kinda fessed up, but Hannah didn’t accept it stating, “There’s 29 other guys in there that I hope are here for the right reasons and don’t have other girls just waiting back at home.”   She eventually called out Scott saying:  “You are such a jerk! I’m done with this! There’s no reason for you to be here if you’re not serious. It’s time for you to head out.”

That left the door open for Luke Parker to take the opportunity to comfort Hannah; who seemed a bit wrecked over throwing a lying guy out on the first night of the show.  Later, Hannah gave Luke the first impression rose and the two shared a major lip-lock.  She previously kissed another guy earlier at the cocktail party tho.  Will Hannah be another kissing bandit?

After receiving the all-important first impression rose, Luke said in the confessionals. “My heart is literally exploding. Before I met Hannah, I knew that there was going to be something strong between us, and after tonight I can totally already see myself falling madly in love with her and spending the rest of my life with this girl.”

During the initial rose ceremony, Hannah sent seven guys home they included:  Joe, Matt Donald, Chasen, Hunter, Ryan, and Thomas.

So what did you think of Hannah’s choice to give the first impression rose to?  What did you think of her throwing Scott out of the competition? Comment below.

GENERAL HOSPITAL: Jason Learns Britt Died and Tells Anna He Has Been Working For Cates Since November 2021

On the Tuesday, March 26th of General Hospital, Anna (Finola Hughes) and the viewers learn about where Jason (Steve Burton) has been for over two and half years. However, Jason gets some news of his own.

Anna is visiting Jason at the PCPD interrogation room. She asks him if he shot Dante (Dominic Zamprogna), which he flatly denies. Anna believes him, but she tells Jason it doesn’t matter, because video footage shows him on the roof at the time of the shooting

When talk turns to Jason not willing to speak without his lawyer present, Anna can’t grasp why Jason would instead spend an hour alone talking with John Cates (Adam J. Harrington).

It is then that Anna brings up that John went by “Jagger” and that the two of them knew each other in high school. Jason doesn’t recall much of his time in high school following his brain injury, but then he gets furious realizing John knew about “Jason’s” past. That is when Jason slams the table and tells Anna, “I’ve been working for John Cates since November 2021.”

Next, Jason explains further that he has been working as an informant for the FBI. Anna wants to know how this came about and he tells her that after the tunnel collapsed, and he couldn’t make it to Britt (Kelly Thiebaud)… all of a sudden he sees Anna’s face drop.  Anna is the first person to tell him that Britt died and was murdered. She tells Jason the killer is in custody, but he continues to be shocked, overwhelmed with tears welling up in his eyes. Realizing he has to pivot to save his life, Jason continues telling Anna how he wound up working with John.

Jason explains that after the tunnel collapse in Greece, FBI agents grabbed him and placed him under arrest and took him to Quantico where he met John. At Quantico, John played a recording of RICO violations and offered Jason a deal if he agreed to be an informant against Pikeman, the illegal arms dealer.

Anna hears from Jason that he thinks Pikeman is selling illegal arms to anyone flagged by the NSA but has ties to the WSB which they needed a civilian to infiltrate their organization as a military soldier, a mercenary.

Jason tells Anna he was a part of the team brought into eliminate Sonny (Maurice Benard). Every time an attempt was made on Sonny’s life over the last two years, a different team was sent to do the job. Anna gets furious when she learns that John told Jason his job was to kill Sonny and she was with John at the warehouse that night. Jason ensured the sniper missed Sonny and left the rifle behind. However, they were supposed to meet an extraction team. Before he was shot, Dante saw it was Jason on the roof and when he turned around with his hands over his head, Dante was shot by the other guy. Jason says if Dante dies, he’ll be charged with capital murder and then will be useless to the FBI.

Meanwhile, John visits Bobbie’s and runs into Carly (Laura Wright). She learns Jason is in custody and is going to head to the PCPD. Before she does, Carly has some words with Cates when she learns not only does John have a vendetta against Sonny, but Jason too.  Carly tells John he should recuse himself from the case.

So, what did you think about the moment when Jason learned Britt died? What do you think of Jason’s return storyline thus far and what we learned about Jagger/Jason and more? Comment below. But first, check out a moment from today’s GH with Jason and Anna.

AMERICAN IDOL: Should Former ‘Bachelor’ Juan Pablo Gervais’ Daughter Camila, Been Voted Through to Hollywood Week?

On the final round of audition to make it into Hollywood Week, Sunday night’s March 24th episode of American Idol brought with it some top-notch musical performances by contestants around the country.

An interesting moment occurred when the former ‘Bachelor’ Juan Pablo Gervais revealed himself. Gervais’ daughter, Camila, who we watched grow-up before our eyes, before and after Juan Pablo’s season on the reality dating series is now 14-years-old and entering the competition.

When Camila explained who her dad was to the judges: Lionel Richie, Katy Perry and Luke Perry, he was brought into the audition room.

Katy asked Juan Pablo, “You know what it’s like to be on television, and you’re trying to throw her in this lion’s den?” Juan Pablo admitted he has been actually trying to temper Camila’s musical aspirations until he felt she was ready to audition and be a part of ‘Idol’.

When it was time to perform, Camila choose to performance Joaquina’s “Rabia.” Her audition drew mixed reactions from the judges. It was a “no” from Lionel Richie. It was a “yes” from Katy Perry although she expressed her concern about Camila’s vocal limitations as measured against the other singers who made it through.

The deciding vote was from Luke Bryan who gave Camila another “yes”. However, Luke was originally a “no.”  He said with the right producer she could make it. Katy mentioned that Spanish music is the industry’s fastest growing genre, and Camila is “authentically that.”

Many on social media and viewer reaction felt if her father, former ABC star Juan Pablo, was not standing in the room awaiting the judges decision, they would have given her a hard pass, since they continually brought up she needed more time to develop her potential and to come back and audition in a few years.

This was yet another controversial pick by the judges.  You can watch Camila’s performance below.  Then let us know, do you feel Camila should have been voted through to Hollywood Week? Share your thoughts in the comment section.

WWE SmackDown: Roman Reigns Reminds Cody Rhodes How Seth Rollins Backstabbed Him While in ‘The Shield’; Will He Do the Same to the ‘American Nightmare’?

On WWE Friday Night SmackDown on Fox, the March 21st episode hailing from Milwaukee, Wisconsin, brought with it a major showdown ahead of WrestleMania 40 between WWE Universal Champion, Roman Reigns, and Royal Rumble winner and challenger, Cody Rhodes.

After Reigns and special counsel, Paul Heyman, enter the ring and address the crowd, Roman announces that he came alone tonight, no members of ‘The Bloodline’ would be with him. When Cody Rhodes makes his entrance to the ring, Reigns asks if he kept his word, like he did. Rhodes answers as long as Roman came alone, then he did too.

Next. Roman calls Cody a “fool”and “stupid” for thinking that everyone wants the best for him including his tag partner at WrestleMania 40 night one, Seth ‘Freakin’ Rollins.

Reigns reminds Rhodes that Rollins and he were part of ‘The Shield’.  Reigns considered Seth his younger brother. So, Reigns asks Cody, just where is Seth tonight? The Tribal Chief admits that while he and Rollins didn’t do good things when they wrestled together in the clique, he thought they were becoming brothers once in The Shield.

However, it was there that Seth stabbed Roman in the back (with a chair shot, no less) and “The Shield” was no more. Reigns asks Cody, if he did this to The Tribal Chief, what do you think’s going to happen to you? And that has been a part of this building storyline many fans in the WWE Universe have been questioning and theorizing about. In addition, Cody pushed back on Roman and said, how does he know that he can trust The Rock not to stab him in the back?

Could it be that Seth will actually stab Cody in the back in their tag match against The Rock and Roman Reigns, or at WrestleMania 40 night two, when it’s The Tribal Chief vs. The American Nightmare for the title?

To further egg Cody on, Roman says Cody will always be the best at being number #2.  He will never be #1 as he can never deliver just like politicians who make promises they never keep.

At the end of the episode and their 21-minute segment, Rhodes tries to shake Reigns’ hand, but the champion walks out with his special counsel. Now at ringside and backing up the ramp, the champ snaps his fingers. Just then, “The Bloodline’s” Solo Sikoa and Jimmy Uso arrive on the scene ready do to harm to Rhodes. However, Rhodes came prepared in his own right and with back-up. Next, Jey Uso and Seth Rollins show up to stare down “The Bloodline” as the show went off the air.

So, do you think Seth ‘Freakin’ Rollins will stab Cody Rhodes in the back at WrestleMania 40? Comment below. But first, check out the entire segment where Reigns and Rhodes come face to face in the ring on SmackDown.
