Liveblogging The Bachelorette Blooper Reel

I’m more than aware that despite the show’s excellent ratings, I’m the only person actually watching this season of The Bachelorette. But I’m not going to let a little thing like that keep me from posting about it, week after week, in ways that are met with polite, embarrassed silence. So last night on The Bachelorette: The Men Tell All, they showed a montage of “funny moments” from this season that weren’t on the show. They usually do that, but this one was particularly funny, and I took careful notes on it, like a reporter.

Make Your Own Crappy Bachelorette “Mix Tape”

Someone at ABC, probably an intern, is cool and knows about the existence of muxtape.com. This intern must have suggested in a meeting that ABC promote the new season of The Bachelorette by allowing viewers to make their own “mix tape” and post the widget on their Facebook pages and blogs. Good idea, bad execution, starting with this lie:

The 25 bachelors hoping to win DeAnna’s heart have made their picks for the ultimate mix tape. Now, it’s your turn! Pick up to 10 songs from the bachelors’ songs and make your own mix tape!

There’s no way that none of the 25 bachelors, as super-boring as they are especially this season, picked anything other than popular karaoke songs like “The Greatest Love Of All” and two Counting Crows songs. And some classics, but “I’ll Make Love To You”? Gross.
