And the final rose goes to…
ABC just crowned their newest bachelorette, Hannah Brown. Although many fans opposed ABC's announcement naming Hannah B. the next bachelorette, the first two episodes are so far in her favor. Even though she seemed to struggle with her words, confrontation, and cumbersome personality in front of the cameras on the previous bachelor, Colton Underwood's season, it seems she has found her confidence, grace and everything in between to lead a pack of potential suitors.
The southern belle has a genuine desire to find love and a quirky persona that already has these men falling for her. In fact, one man whose name is Luke P. has already admitted to falling for Hannah on his first group date with her. Despite only meeting her once or twice previously, the fight for good reality TV has already begun. While there are many men who stand out, specifically for troublemaking capabilities and good looks, only one will go home engaged to Hannah, if any.
As most of you know the way the bachelorette narrows down her selection of suitors is by offering them a rose to stay and continue to help Hannah find love, sending those without roses home. Every week, the men are taken on either group dates or one-on-ones until the final four suitors are left which is when Hannah gets a sneak peek at their hometown and family life.
Although it's hard to differentiate between the suitors who are there to sweep her off her feet or for the fame of being on reality TV, there are four men who seem to stick out after only the airing of two episodes.
It is no secret that the show makes certain men more appealing to the audience than others so we can love Hannah's future hubby almost as much as she will. Mike, Peter, Jed, and Luke P. all appear to have what it takes to make it all the way.
Luke P. seems to be this season's troublemaker as he seems to start quite a few fights while also being called a "psycho" by fellow competitors in the trailer for upcoming episodes. He is the clear menace of the group which not only makes for entertaining television but a good fight for Hannah's heart. Unfortunately, he will (hopefully) not be getting down on one knee by the end of his journey.
There is not that much we have learned about Mike yet, but so far his conversations and annoyance with his peers' juvenile antics are qualities able to deem him a stand-up guy. We also see a sneak peek of him saying the three little words to Hannah that everyone wants to hear.
Peter, a pilot and an undeniably attractive competitor, appears to be genuine, sweet, and looking for love. More importantly, we also catch a glimpse of him admitting his love for the bachelorette in the season's trailer.
Fellow southerner, Jed is my prediction for this season's winner of Hannah's heart. While he didn't make a huge first impression on the first night at the mansion, his authenticity and charm begin to surface in last week's episode; not to mention his numerous cameos in the upcoming season's trailer cannot be a coincidence. Moreover, late-night host, Jimmy Kimmel, who is known for his accurate predictions of "Bachelor" and "Bachelorette" winners shares my hopeful expectation of Hannah giving her final rose to Jed.
Despite only viewing the first two episodes so far, reality television never fails to shock its audiences which we can only hope for on tonight's third episode at 8 p.m. on ABC.
