If just one of them would have said "out of respect for Melissa" at any point, I might have respect for one of them. Chris, Jason, and Molly-how rude!

I think Jason is a ahole, I can't beleive that ABC would even air the episode, I mean come on they ripped Melissa's heart out on national tv. I think she deserved better then that. Molly what can I say what a twit for taking Jason back, I didn't like her much anyway, she always had a snotty look on her face, so I guess they deserve each other.

maybe Jason's wife had a good reason for leaving him. the way he did this on television to melissa rycroft is unconscionable. he is going to have one screwed up kid!

That is the stupidest episode I have ever seen. How can that jerk Jason mess with someones mind and heart like that. Meliisa deserves better than him anyways. I hope Molly dumps him in a few weeks and the a--hole ends up with noone. Thats what he deserves. What a poor excuse for a man.
Jason
March 2nd, 2009 11:52 PM
Hi folks, Jason here. I just wanted to say that I'm sorry and I was simply following my heart. Plus it was kinda nice boinking both girls.

Give Jason a break, people. He had 6 weeks in intense situations to make up his mind about 25 women. Why shouldn't he be able to change his mind?
Almost everyone who goes on The Bachelor gets dumped on national tv, and none of them ever expect it. Why is it so much worse that he dumped Melissa, she already knew Jason was having doubts?
Melissa was so into Jason, but what did he like about her besides how much she loved him? She wasn't ever right for him.
OK people you do realize that your falling for ABC's trap right?
What you see on this show is the result of 100's of hours of filming edited in to fit in this time slot. So when you see Molly with her hand on Jason's knee that could be 30 minutes later. The editing doesn't even need to be in time sequence of when it actually happened that can take sound bites and scenes that they think fit better together to create tension, drama etc. An example is when Melissa and Jason are in the hot tub and drinking champagne take a close look if you have PVR'd it and from one pan to the next on melissa her glass is full and bubly to half full and flat back to full and bubbly. The editors are craftsmen directed to create the right mood for the show. Of course the show is staged how else could it be done, but what you see with the people on the show is real just edited for effect.
By the way when Jason came out he was serious, and then when they brought Melissa out she was very serious, i

What kind of a person does that to someone on national t.v. He is truly a disgusting person, a dog in my book. Shame on you.

I am so disappointed with the outcome. I hate when an entire season is dedicated to someone who OBVIOUSLY has no clue what he wants! And I truly feel for Melissa...if he was really dedicated to the relationship enough to propose and sincerely mean it then there is NOTHING that could have happened over a mere six weeks to change that. I wonder if this wasn't just a creative way to get Melissa on as the next Bachelorette?!?!

Jason is a jerk! I can understand if you fall out of love with someone, but to break up with someone on national television is just cruel. I can tell it is all an act with Molly, im sure they've been dating behind the scenes. I bawled watching Melissa get her heart broken, but i think she is a strong girl. Obviously stronger than Molly who just jumped right at the oppurtunity to get back with a loser. Good luck to you Melissa in everything you do. We're all on your side. Jason, go screw yourself.

She should have just got up and left earlier in the show, refused to be humiliated like that (perhaps she signed some agreement which prevented her from doing so). She and Jason did have wonderful chemistry. It's why I kept watching. Silly. I feel silly. It confirms what I knew -- that you can't find love that way, not most of the time, and it's folly to participate, folly to watch.

Wow...I can't believe how differently I feel than everyone else. I was so happy when Jason broke up with Melissa and got back together with Molly. I feel it was a really hard thing for him to do and he thought it best to make an effort to make things right. The whole "journey" as they call it has been a struggle for him. He's a nice guy and can't help having deep feelings for these girls and hates breaking their hearts. Give the guy a break...What if you were in his shoes. It's better than him faking it through with Melissa and eventually breaking up 6 months from now.

I cannot believe this. I had such high hopes for this season. I guess my biggest issue is that they did all of this to Melissa on national television. ABC obviously does not know their viewers well enough to know that staged or not, this would not be acceptable. Whatever, it was obvious that the "After the Rose" was staged with Molly and Jason. I'm done with the Bachelor!

March 2nd, 2009 11:46 PM
I got sucked into this show despite my better judgment. I found myself liking this Jason guy (I did watch the whole season, again, despite my better judgment) and hoping that things would work out for him, but really?!? That was dreadful. A waste of time and so cruel, so very cruel to Melissa who won then was made to lose, badly, on national TV. ABC should pay for a shrink for her. She'll need one. I feel I need one for letting myself get involved in a show that plays so fast and loose with people's hearts (not just the women on the show but with its viewers' hearts as well). I've been told it's all scripted, but if it was, what a lousy script. ABC should really be ashamed. What will they come up with next? Airing a crucifixion? I'm done with all their reality shows and perhaps with them.

March 2nd, 2009 11:46 PM
We all should try to keep our televisions off tomorrow! They do not deserve the ratings. What a trainwreck, how will we NOT watch. I think Jason really turned out to be a complete ass. I firmly believed his "chemistry" with Melissa was so much stronger on the show than with Molly. Guess he got bored after the show was over. Prick.
Megan
March 2nd, 2009 11:46 PM
This has been my favorite bachlor ever. I think that Jason has every right to change his mind. You are forced into speed dating and its a wonder that this kind of thing does not happen more often. I hope him and Molly are happy together.

f! I feel like ive been played for the past 6 mondays. and! i had to wait two weeks for this one!
give melissa her own show!

March 2nd, 2009 11:45 PM
I have not one doubt in my mind tht Molly and Jason had contact proir to this whole bunch of crap.
When Melissa asked Jason, "Have you seen/spoken to Molly"
His answer was an utter lie.
The whole thing was rigged.
I PRAY that Melissa does not consider for one second being on this show again....
and as far as Molly and Jason go....
well they are trully soulmates who deserve one another (to very shallow souls)
OR
Molly isjust stupid and will figure out what a piece of dog crap Jason really is.
I am never watching this stupid show again.
I know better than to watch reality (staged, fake, not real at all) TV.

Molly you have dissapointed all the women in America tonight, I can't believe you actually are taking him and said that you are glad things ended this way. You totally bashed Melissa when Jason sent you home and look who turned out to be the true fake. Poor Melissa - ABC Shame on you!! we will never watch the bachelor again

March 2nd, 2009 11:44 PM
I think Jason is just like DeAnna!!!! A coward just because everything isn"t going perfect they ran...... chicken!!! anything thing worth keeping is worth fighting for!!!! I loved and cheered for Jason through both shows and now i will i had never watched a chick #$%^ all i have left to say is GOOD LUCK MELISSA and watch out Molly i hope the he don't do the same to you!!!

Ok first off Jason is a Big As*hole for what he did to Mel and I do believe that Jason was talking to Molly the whole time after he purposed to Mel. I think that Molly is just a stupid as Jason if he did that to Mel who is to say he doesn't change his mind tomorrow and want to get back with Mel hell maybe even Jillian!! I'm from Dallas, Tx and there are a bunch of D*ckhead guys like Jason out here and lets just say we don't need anymore like him! Mel just keep your head up and move on you deserve and you will find the man of your dreams* As for Jason and Molly you both deserve eachother for what he did to Mel and for you not to even care how the one he dumped felt about this whole screwed up situation. I'm done with the Bachelor this was the last straw for me way to go ABC:0(

March 2nd, 2009 11:41 PM
C'mon people, we see less than an hour of filming each week from HUNDREDS of hours of filiming! We have no idea who those ladies really are from what they air on the show.
However it was pretty shady of him not to tell Melissa before this show! He said they had been talking on the phone so why not tell her??? Was he coached into not telling her for better ratings?>???
