The Bachelorette (2.2/6) had its tell-all episode last night with the guys who didn’t make Emily Maynard’s cut. The show was down 12% from last week and tied a season low (with the exception of specials). Still, last night’s episode – the last before July 22’s finale — was Monday’s most-watched show with more than 7 million viewers. Meanwhile, the fifth week of The Glass House (1.0/3) was flat with last week and tied a season low. ABC won the night in viewers and Fox won in adults 18-49.
Fox’s Hell’s Kitchen (2.6/8) was down to the final nine contestants and the show was up 4% from last week. Kitchen was followed as always by more Gordon Ramsey on MasterChef (2.6/7), also up 4% from last week’s episode. It also marked its second-biggest audience ever in total viewers, behind only last year’s August 16 finale. The second of NBC’s two Fear Factor (1.5/5) specials was up 7% from last week’s series low. American Ninja Warrior (1.7/5) was also up from last week’s series low, rising 21%. NBC ended the night with a repeat of Grimm (0.8/2). CBS ran all repeats Monday with How I Met Your Mother (1.1/4), 2 Broke Girls (1.2/4), Two And A Half Men (1.2/3), Mike & Molly (1.2/3) and Hawaii Five-O (1.1/3).

True Bachelorettes are ‘not’ moms, so this show is misleading & people see through that. Duh.
Out of guilty pleasure I watched this season. As cute as she is I think now, being “famous,” she’s doomed to single-mom status for a long time. Neither of the 2 remaining guys will marry her in the end. And neither would the other 23. The history of the show proves that out. But as to watching a total train wreck, it’s damn entertaining! This is a social experiment that always goes awry. For some reason we always feel better about ourselves after watching both bachelor shows.
Can’t watch these faux reality shows anymore, but Emily Maynard sure is a fine looking lady. From what I hear, she is going to end up with the host anyway.
It may be a season low for The Bachelorette but that’s a viewership best for “The Men Tell All” episodes over the last few years of Bachelorette seasons. That +7 million viewer number for the reunion show tells me the finale on Sunday is going to be HUGE.
Why can’t ABC just give up on this idiotic concept already and just put on something new for once and refreshing? Just more drivel added to an already bad amount of reality TV on this network and others. Didn’t Reality Steve give away whom she chose?
