      @msbrownsuga 4 หลายเดือนก่อน +35

      I mean yes...and no. Daisy's exit was simultaneously gracious and a smidge selfish. And I agree that it was also a convenient exit strategy: Daisy never really showed that she was "in love" with Joey (nor did she have to be necessarily), but she loved how Joey built up her confidence and made her feel.
      There's no harm in that if that's how she feels; but it's also not a big rah rah feminism moment to wait until you're not receiving overwhelming admiration, then seek out the answer from the other person in consideration, before deciding to walk away.
      Kelsey, Joey, and Daisy all seemed fine with the way things went down and are happy, so I don't feel strongly. I just don't think this is a crowning achievement in "girl power".

      This is exactly why he is one of the best if not the best bachelor. The other men treat the women of their season like contestants while he treated each woman with respect and trying as much as possible to protect their hearts. Like he was just so gentle with damn near everybody. It’s not a surprise that all the women had all good things to say about him which to my knowledge hasn’t happened in a women tell all. I actually think I might like this season better than Sean Lowes which is saying something.

    I absolutely adore that this finale for once included the power of sisterhood. Rather than the runner up being framed as the dumped, it was the two finalists supporting each other. In addition to the beauty of Joey’s proposal, it was also beautiful to see Daisy gain a sister and show what was the classiest thing I’ve ever seen someone do on this show.

      I know a lot of people skipped Zack's season, but last season Gabi showed up to the final rose ceremony - knowing w/o a doubt that Zack wasn't choosing her - specifically because she wanted Kaity, her friend, to know that she was Zack's choice and not "winner by default."
      TPTB lean into the drama, but we've seen F4s, F3s, and F2s showing true friendship and sisterhood for years. I'm glad Kelsey & Daisy are friends, but it's not as rare as people seem to think.

      She did that not because she cared about him so much but because she was never that into him so it was easy to walk away. She spent the whole season not showing him that she was sure of him, always made him feel he was chasing after her and then she tried to rush it at the end and make herself look like the hero who wasn't chosen and walked away. She manipulated the story.

      @@msharlem311 I believe she did love him in the end, or else she wouldn't have said it. Her timeline of "falling" for him was more realistic because the filming of the Bachelor takes place over a short couple of months and one on ones are extremely limited and short... so it's hard to understand how a person can genuinely fall in love that quickly after speaking to someone for let's say 10 hours collectively. I do not think she was being manipulative at all.
      Overall, what contestants are experiencing is probably more infatuation vs. actual genuine love during filming... if you look at the statistics of this show, there is a very low long-term success rate for the engaged couples at the end. I think it ultimately comes down to the people not truthfully knowing each other.

People want easy relationships because life is already hard enough. 2 young, beautiful, smart, sexy women. 1 easy, 1 challenging, hmmmm let me think? 🤔 This couple will run into challenges. It will give them an opportunity to grow together. It's easy to grow together when it's an easy relationship. There is nothing wrong with her validating him. Men need that sometimes and when they get it, they DO grow because they have that reassurance that someone always has their back and isn't afraid to tell him. I Said all that to say,...Daisy was kinda cold too, she wasn't ready to be open. Kelsey was. Daisy was on a different timeline and more power to her. That's why it worked out the way it did. She is going to be just fine. She will find her man who welcomes her "challenges". Joey doesn't need to be challenged by Kelsey. Life will do that for him.

And when Daisy said Kelsey’s mom is proud of her, BAWLING. I am just so happy for Kelsey and Joey too. You can truly see the love they have for each other and it seems so real and genuine. And OMG JOEY. He was an INCREDIBLE bachelor. Not a single woman on the show had anything bad to say about him and I think that really shows his character. On the show, you could see how much he truly cared for the women and respected them. He’s now my favorite bachelor ever. Up there with the bachelor/ette GOATs with Hannah Brown. Amazing season.

But seeing that Daisy and Maria did pass on the offer, proud of them cause Bachelor Nation can be brutal especially when it comes to racism and toxic comments.

    Joey was such a great bachelor. I love how careful he was with his words all throughout while still remaining sincere. It definitely feels like he entered this KNOWING he was going to hurt people, cuz that's inevitable in this kind of show, but also determined to be as kind and considerate as possible. Even in the end with Daisy, not to take away at all from her strength and bravery in the end, but I definitely think Joey was drawing from his own experience in the past and didn't want to blindside Daisy. He was like gradually letting her down throughout this episode and while it's painful to watch, I think it gave Daisy the opportunity to avoid that big painful shock and let her take the situation into her own hands. It doesn't make for as much drama for the viewer when it's SO obvious who he's going to choose, but I think it's the RIGHT thing to do.

    I think everything turned out the way it should. I think both Daisy and Maria know they are at the height of their time right now and maybe it’s the best time to bow out with so much love and support from the fans. Less room to fall from grace (if that were ever to happen) like so many other leads. I wasn’t expecting much from Joey’s season when he was announced as the lead, but it turned out to be one of the best Bachelor seasons ever! I’m looking forward to being happily surprised by Jenn’s season.

Joey showed us what a true man can be . That a caring man will actually listen and cares about treating all women with respect . Joey was by far the BEST bachelor.

Maybe she didnt want to risk as she's already in a good place. She has the biggest social media following now out of any women on Joey's seaskn including The F1 , the new bachelorette, and maria if may grow more after streaming i wouldn't be surprised if she doesn't go back on reality tv ,and just use her post show Platform to write more books or start a podcast or work on her foundation.

Jenn should have a great season hopefully as this Season was great and hopefully the show understands romance is better than drama.

    Okay Jenn seems pretty sweet and I need to say this everybody was like “um what?” when they picked Hannah Brown for Bachelorette & she’s been one of the most memorable leads in recent seasons of the Bachelor. So don’t sleep on a wild card is all I’m saying!

    I feel like I'm the only one who wasn't surprised by Jenn being picked for the next lead as the questions she was asked by Jesse during the Tell-All made me go 'oh maybe they're going to cast her for bachelorette'. I'm excited to see her season!
    Great vid as always, Fantake. Can wait to see what else you have lined up!

      I called it weeks ago just by process of elimination. Daisy and Maria were too easy of picks and would do better in Paradise that needs some saving after last year. They just came off two Black leads within the last 27 months. And Jen does have a universal magnetism to her, on top of potentially being the first Asian lead and her last min edit. It was a no brainer

      I asked my friends the same thing, and everyone thought it was unlikely based on the way ABC continued to highlight Maria that episode.
      ABC had the opportunity to set Jenn up much better for a potential Bachelorette reveal and just - didn't. They made WTA the Maria show and the finale/ATFR the Daisy show, so its not hard to see why fans were so confused (doesn't justify the hate at all though). That kind of "shocking reveal" doesn't help anyone.

    I have so many conflicting thoughts about this finale, but one thing I can agree is that I was gagged and in some moments legitimately (pleasantly) surprised.
    1. I am thrilled for Joey and Kelsey! I managed to remain unspoiled but felt pretty confident that she would be his final rose choice fairly early on, thanks in no small part to your expert training Fantake.
    2. I was never convinced that Daisy was "in love" with Joey, and her demeanor throughout the season made me suspect that she would dump him rather than letting the process play out. The way she + producers handled it gave the three people involved a happy ending, but it just didn't give me the "umph" that TPTB clearly wanted me to have by her decision. Daisy saying in ATFR that she wasn't going to wait and let Joey reject her sounds like beautiful rhetoric when wrapped in the edit of the Christmas Tree Farm/Hallmark Lead Daisy, but imagine the fans' reaction had another F2 given that as their reason?
    3. I though Jenn could be a fun Bachelorette early on, and would've been happy with Jenn _OR_ Rachel _OR_ Lexi _OR_ Kelsey T _OR_ Maria. Each of these women would bring a unique story and something different to the role. But after WTA I was legitimately afraid for anyone being chosen as The Bachelorette not named Daisy or Maria- especially a woman of color, even though any of Joey's final 6 (3 of whom were WOC) would ordinarily be a reasonable choice.
    4. I really, really hope that ABC/WB/The Bachelorette steps up to make sure that Jenn receives the promotion, the budget, alumni support, and all of the fanfare she deserves to have a wonderful Bachelorette experience. Last night's debut was not particularly re-assuring, less so b/c of her nerves than because TPTB seemed to be burying the lede. With such a positive, lovey-dovey final rose, there was no need for so much time devoted to how Daisy felt, how close Daisy and Kelsey are, how thankful Joey is for how Daisy handled their ending. Around 10pm I joked that it felt like they were trying to run out the clock (s/o March Madness), and they kind of did. We didn't even get Happy Couple Weekend footage for Jelsey or footage recapping Jenn's "journey"; the focus being on neither the happy couple nor the Bachelorette was an odd choice.
    5. Moving forward, I also hope ABC/WB/The Bachelor/ette take seriously the role their editing and promotion has in how Bachelor Nation reacts to their decisions. It was overwhelmingly obvious that TPTB had chosen Daisy as their ideal Bachelorette candidate on episode 1. Similarly, the oversaturation of Maria as the character of the season meant that several of the women's stories and story arcs were clipped. Most notably the replacement of Rachel+Joey footage with Maria v. the trio footage on several episodes, but also some of the great footage we saw in the WTA montages could have been used to contextualize this great cast of women. How hard would it be to showcase multiple women throughout the season to (a) build legitimate suspense re: potential candidates and (b) establish buy-in with the audience to accept any of a number of options? It's not like the show hasn't had 20 yrs of experience.

    Daisy tries to act like a matyr and the hero who walked away, but she never made Joey feel secure, always made him feel he had to chase her and never made him feel he was the one for her. How can she then say SHE was the one not chosen? She tried to rush it at the end that all of a sudden she loves him, to make him look like he was not the one choosing her. But we all know - including her - she would have turned down his engagement and that she always knew he wasn't her person. He would have been left heartbroken. So that is why it was easy for her to leave and walk away and not be really bothered about it. She can't be crushed ablut something she didn't want anyway.

      Somebody said what I was thinking this entire time. She is getting all this airplay - maybe partly deserving - but overshadowing the fact that there was always an obvious beauty and connection in the growing love story of Joey and Kelsey. I'm all for women supporting each other - YAY! - but I didn't see this chivalry when they were attacking Maria. Way to go Daisy - make yourself a hero in the end so you don't go down in history as being the one not picked (even though you KNEW from earlier on than you'd admit) but hailed as the Sisterhood champion...yeah, sure.

    The fact that there was Hallmark references and Daisy really ended on that note is hilarious lol. Much of it for sure was production. Daisy knew she's not it so production pushed to have such sweet ending for once.

      This could be factual. It makes so much sense.
