Bachelorette Season 16 Episode 1 | Week 1 Premiere
The Bachelorette is back for the 16th season, Clare Crawley is still on the hunt for love, and Haley and Ami are here to break down episode 1. While Juan Pablo may have left Clare heartbroken all those years ago, this 39 year-old hairstylist from Sacramento California is determined to find love. From knights in shining armour and the first impression rose to a man in a straitjacket and night one drama, Ami and Haley discuss it all.
- overall thoughts of the premiere
- coverage of how Covid-19 and shelter-in-place orders affected the season
- the lack of video packages in favor of showing men quarantining in their rooms
- the good and the bad of the entrances, including Eazy’s leap through a banner, Zach’s farting ring box, AJ’s hand squeezing, Tyler C’s station wagon, Jason’s pregnant belly, Kenny’s t-shirt of Clare’s dogs, Yosef’s moon pies, Bennett’s Rolls Royce, Chasen’s knight armor, and Mike’s sandals.
- Clare’s over-the-top reaction to Dale, stating she just met her husband
- Clare talking to Blake Moynes about being the only guy to break the rules
- Tyler C and Yosef drama
- Dale’s first impression rose
- Clare acknowledging some guys didn’t get any time with her at all
- theories about whether Clare talked with Dale before the season and how the first part of the season may play out
- and more!
