Night One
For the first time, two bachelorettes -- Britt Nilsson and Kaitlyn Bristowe -- greet potential love interests on the 2015 season premiere of The Bachelorette.
And perhaps even more deliciously dramatic, for the first time, those
two bachelorettes are waiting out in front of the Bachelor Mansion
waiting to greet the 25 bachelors as soon as they arrive in their limos.
So as soon as the first limo door opens, the drama begins, because
now these guys have to decide who to approach first. No pressure though,
because while a guy is talking to one of the ladies, the other gets to
just stand by awkwardly while the other two flirt, creating tension
right off the bat.
As always, the arrivals are glorious -- Shawn E arrives in a hot tub car, Chris pulls up in a cupcake car, Joe
shares some moonshine with the ladies -- and both ladies take turns
feeling like all the guys are into the other bachelorette candidate.
Which makes the cocktail party interesting, because this is usually
where we see the guys going nuts, fighting for 1-on-1 time, but in this
case, Britt and Kaitlyn are the ones feeling the pressure because the
twist has been revealed: The guys are going to vote on who becomes the
next Bachelorette.
So everyone at the party is feeling at least some pressure, scrambling to make a connection with someone. Ryan M
seems to feel a whole lot of pressure of some kind, because he drinks A
LOT and ends up making a few enemies quickly. But his routine is
quickly put to an end after he slaps Kaitlyn on the butt, because that's
a line that just can't be crossed. Host Chris Harrison calls him outside, and kicks him off the show, sending him home before the Rose Ceremony.
And soon the guys begin to break into two camps -- Team Britt and
Team Kaitlyn. The vote will determine whose affection they'll be
fighting for all season, but they also quickly realize that casting a
vote for the woman who isn't sticking around could be detrimental to
their chances going forward.
But they've got to pick someone. And at the end of the episode, the votes have been cast.
Night Two
The Season Premiere of The Bachelorette set up a lot of drama -- you've got your typical Which-Contestants-Are-Going-Home
drama, but this season added the twist of
Which-Bachelorette-Will-We-Even-Be-Watching-All-Season? drama, which is
new and, frankly, pretty exciting (if relatively painful and awkward for
the ladies). Thankfully for us viewers, Part 2 of the two-night
premiere event settled the Bachelorette portion of the drama incredibly
quickly.
Chris Harrison
led off the show by approaching the two women to reveal the results of
the vote to the two Bachelorettes. It's all-or-nothing: The loser goes
home, the winner becomes the new Bachlelorette.
The new Bachelorette is Kaitlyn Bristowe.
Britt Nilsson
shed some tears, but overall she maintained perspective on her search
for love -- which may or may not even take that long (more on that
below).
After some proper celebration time, Kaitlyn got to work getting to
know all the guys. She also handed out the First Impression Rose to Shawn B, who got a few smooches as part of the package, but even that wasn't even her first kiss of the season -- that honor went to Chris "Cupcake" a few minutes earlier.
The Rose Ceremony was soon upon them, but not before Brady
interrupted to pull Kaitlyn aside and telling her that he was leaving
the show to follow Britt, so Britt might find love just yet via this
season of The Bachelorette.
