( Fake Bachelor Spoilers? ) Does Reality Steve Work for ABC Now? Is the Vienna story a planted leak? Is Ali coming back?

So if you have been reading our Bachelorette Blog this season you've heard my hypothesis already but if not I will post it again. This is just my speculation and it is based on no facts....YET.

 

As it turns out though there is a growing amount of skepticsim on the matter of this season outcome and the so called leaks of Reality Steve. Andy Dehart of Reality Blurred....one of the most known bloggers in the TV industry wrote the following this week....(Article is below-see bold and underlined portion on him floating a hypothesis.)

 

Article was titled: Bachelor producer calls spoilers and leaks “just more promotion"

 

Tonight on The Bachelor, Chris Harrison says, “for the first time ever, there will be no rose ceremony.” The shock! The horror!

 

If you’ve been able to slog through all of the text to find Reality Steve’s spoilers, you probably have a good idea why there is no rose ceremony tonight. Whatever you think about the conspiracy theories, it’s clear Steve Carbone has a production source—whether it’s someone who’s actively involved in production or just tangentially connected to someone who is—who offers accurate information about what happens episode to episode. And guess what? The show’s executive producer doesn’t mind.

 

Here’s how Mike Fleiss said the show dealt with leaks in the past: “We spent a lot of money and we hired these guys from the Israeli secret service to shake down people and look at phone records and stuff like that. We ultimately found out who it was. That person no longer works for us,” he told Entertainment Weekly.

 

However, the latest leaks, regardless of their accuracy, don’t merit that kind of response; instead, Fleiss just jokes about them. “That’s something that kind of bugs us. In some ways, it’s just more promotion. We would like to find out [who his source is].” Fleiss adds, “We would love to know if anyone knows [who the source is]. I’m offering a $25 reward!”

 

In other words, he’s so unconcerned that he’s flippant about it, and actually appreciates how those spoilers inspire publicity and media coverage. If I were to float my own conspiracy theory, one might even imagine the show is using Steve. Steve told EW the information and source(s) “just fell into my lap,” which makes it possible that the show sought out someone who’d leak information but was highly critical, and therefore not sound like a publicist while (unwittingly or not) promoting the show.

But that’s just speculation.

 

I would take this one step further, this will make it a huge shock when there is a different outcome since he has credibility from a prior season. Especially since we are seasoned not to get our hopes up for Ali to return after Reid did not last season.

 

Like I said, we have nothing firm yet but don't be shocked to see a last minute outcome this year as we have been saying that you NEVER EXPECTED!

Why would he take her back after she left? Clearly her job was more important than him, but of course, the comments in this last episode made by Jake and Ali, seem to make it more of a "shock" when she she made her choice. It looks like this is all scripted now and not a real search at all, doesn't it?
how could anyone like Ali Cat, claw, hiss & complain & then end up crying like a baby, at end of season because she has to go back to work? She asked Jake if he wants her to stay? He said yes but she leaves. Crying out loud, what more does the guy need to say to make her stay. Award winning performance, yes, sounds scripted. But instead of feeling bad, it makes you laugh, this a comedy?... more of an embarrassment on natl tv. Looks like she going to try to claw her way back, like the old trick Ed used last season.

That whole ending last night was odd. Ali begged him to tell her if she should stay, he does and then all of a sudden she has to go. Stupid. I am liking this show less and less every week and if the ending is Vienna, well I will just feel sorry for Jake.
Something else HAS to happen. Why watch the rest of the season if someone already definitively knows what the outcome is? Ali was smart to leave for her job {if that was indeed the reason she left}...the way this economy is and the job market, at 25 she's lucky to have a job that she loves. Jake can't promise her anything at this point so why shouldn't she go for a sure thing? If someone like Vienna "can have her pick of men", Ali certainly can. I'm all for her ending up with Jake but if she doesn't, she'll be ok.
sad, ain't it?! LOL

because it keeps us watching is hopes they were wrong..lol
Why do they do the same thing they did as last year, someone leave because of their job? Of course they are going to let people think it will be a repeat and Ali will come back in the end and win, just as Ed did. Another repeat, to get the viewers to keep watching. How much did Ali get paid to do that last night?

You know when these girls go on the show that whoever they work for, knows they will be gone and might be for awhile. You know that the company she works for should love the fact she is/was still on National TV and it is just more advertisement for them, so why make her choose? That is why I really think it is all scripted and she was paid to leave, because if she really loved Jake she would have stayed. She could move to Texas and find a job probably even better?

As far as her coming back to be the next Bachelorette, how could she leave her job once again for that period of time? And Ali knows if she would be his F1, she probably would have had to leave her job eventually if her and Jake were to get married. All I know if Vienna wins, Jake isn't at all who I thought he was from last season and his "MR Perfect" title won't be so perfect. All the women who fell in love with him last season I am sure, like myself, see a totatlly different Jake and it keeps getting worse imo anyway.

I like Tenley, but can't see it working out..her voice drives me crazy and I don't think she is over her ex. Gia is beautiful but that is all I think Jake sees in her, not a deep down love feeling. Vienna is young, naive, and too much of a daddy's girl who I think is out to win like her other competitions she has been in.. Ms December 2009, hmm.. Now 'HOW' did she get to win that when she was taping this show so much last year?

So I hope he doesn't choose anyone ...it would be the best thing for us all;) Let Ali be the next Bachelorette and Jake come on her show,lol. But oops she can't leave her job long enough, or they say;)
What is interesting is that Jake asked Ali's mother and Tenley's father for their blessing if Jake should propose to one of them. I did not see that occur with Gia or Vienna's family. Jake has stated that at the end, if you look back you would see the connection which leads me to believes that he eithers picks Ali, Tenley or no one.

In addition, what a great way to screw RS by feeding the guy information until the end. It sets RS up, and then leaves him out to dry, thus blowing his reputation out the window. A reasonable way to get rid of a problem, if one exists.
How could Ali be the next bachelorette when her job is more important than love?

I like Ali, so I hope she doesn't go back to Jake! I think she deserves someone better :) I think she should be the next bachelorette.
I thought he did ask Vienna's dad maybe out in the garage?

I'm with you, so hoping to see RS's credibility blown because it needs to be done since it's been rumored they are setting him up for a big fall.
As to the ending of the Bachelor, it's very telling he didn't ask for either Vienna's or Gia's dad's blessing when he proposed. Maybe they didn't show it, but I don't think it happened. So I truly believe Jake winds up with either Tenley or Ali, I'm hoping Ali.
Would you want Vienna's dad for a father-in-law, I wouldn't.

I agree to all the comments and want RS to be sooo wrong and would love to see Jake with Ali she is a perfect match for him!! Hopefully we can hold out and hopefully RS is wrong! GOOOO ALI AND JAKE!
