I feel so bad. Obviously her actions spurred some of that on. But being called a pill popper for prescription Adderall is just cruel and gross. She likely has ADHD which makes this show even more disregulating than for neurotypical contestants. Also being labeled a drunk for drinking on the show that is known for shoving drinks at you 24/7, is dumb. All around I'm glad she realized her faults, fought back against the addiction rumors, and is doing well
@@lizzyblitz07 100% also this all comes from people she was supposed to live with for a period of time. Everytime Peter wouldn't be here she'd have to deal with how she couldn't trust anyone in the house and knowing she'd be judged for every single action that she'd take. Which is even more stressfull considering she knows there's cameras on her all the time, and she could be badly edited at any moments and judged to hell and back by everyone at home AS WELL. It's such a terrifying scenario.
He was on TWO SEASONS of this show and still didn't seem to grasp the point. 😂 I almost feel bad for him, he seemed genuinely obtuse rather than malicious.
Yesss he has "let's see where it goes", doesn't want labels vibes and these girls literally signed up for a show where you essentially win a lifetime commitment to the series lead.
These recreations to get around copyright violations. The amount of outfit changes and acting skills. The “DONT LET HER GOOOOOO” and the finger mustache for the father. Give THIS woman an EGOT fr fr
My favorite tidbit of Pilot Pete lore is that he and his mom were roommates with Victoria Justice and her mom when he was a child actor. So much of his relationship with his mom makes sense when you realize that she was his momanager during his failed child actor era. I think Victoria Justice said that Pete and his mom shared a room when they all lived together?
The funniest thing about the champagne drama to me is that I used to work at Bevmo so I immediately recognized the bottle as a mediocre $25 prosecco that was always on a bogo sale, which just feels like the ultimate insult to injury
You know what kills me about the whole Vicky F and Chase Rice thing? Peter's literal own ex, Hannah Brown, was there like two episodes ago. It's basically the same thing. They could have just laughed and it was SOOOOOO dramatic for nothing. Love it sm.
To add more mess to this whole thing; Chase Rice isn’t any old random country singer. He’s Survivor: Nicaragua runner-up turned successful country singer Chase Rice.
I was like 14 when i watched peters season and lemme tell you, as an alayah defender i was fighting for my life on bachelor nation twitter, i was in the TRENCHES
but alayah had some cosmic force on her side cause her karma was immaculate, day after peter dumped her he got a concussion, then all of her opps were eliminated in QUICK succession, and even after her elimination they still had her names on the tip of their tongues
Can I just say if I had quit my job to go on this show, and I was exhausted, and stressed, and tipsy/drunk, the champagne thing would have ABSOLUTELY devastated me. That is the kind of shit that breaks me. I stand with Kelsey.
Ok tea: I'm South African and we got our first Bachelor in 2019. The engagement flopped immediately. Later, I matched with the guy on Tinder, but just laughed it off assuming it was a catfish. Next thing I get a DM and follow request from his verified Instagram profile. So we chatted over WhatsApp for like a week. He quickly became super forward, offering to fly me to Cape Town where he lived, asking if he can fly to my hometown, and STAY WITH ME. I was so weirded out that I ghosted him. Then roughly a year ago, the news reported he was homeless, and eventually taken to rehab. Smh
Girl, I’m South African too. 💁♀️We had a WhatsApp group devoted to cringing at the whole thing while it was on air lol. Qiniso was the only person who didn’t make me squirm in all the seasons. Anyway, so nuts this happened to you. Shame, the whole homeless thing is pretty dark. I hope he’s back on track.
Girl, agreed! I didn't end up watching the Bachelorette, but Qiniso seemed like a sweetie. And absolutely, all cringe aside, I hope Lee is doing better now.@@h3art_3y3s
I'm really glad you called out the difference between Luke and Maddie's requests. I remember people making the comparison when it aired but it wasn't the same at all! Both are doomed for failure but Maddie just said "Hey, I like where we're headed but this is my boundary if I'm going to keep going" whereas Luke spent the entire season being really difficult to deal with and then acted like she was a horrible person if she didn't follow his rule. There's a difference between "This is just how I feel" and "I have decided you will be my wife so you must follow all my rules"
not sure if anyone else has seen but Maddie actually went on a podcast and explained that she didn't even sign up for the bachelor, her friends signed her up after she had a rough break up to get her back into dating, and even then she wasn't truly set on the idea but gave it a try after discussing with her family. and with her not giving Peter straight answers or explanations, i imagine she also had a hard time figuring out what she could or couldn't say on the spot whenever they're filming because she's scared the editors will take her words out of context or even frame her in a way that was negative to the audience, especially being the "abstaining christian girl" 🥲🥲
This season was the most off the leash the producers have gotten, and i honestly think it’s bc Peter is just a people pleaser who didnt know what he wanted. He let them and these girls walk all over him 😭
Me too! I wonder if she just lacks self-awareness or she thinks she's giving tough love but going around saying someone is a pill popper and drinking their sorrows away is NOT nice lol
@@-Desire i agree, i was wondering with all her drinking comments if she really thought she was coming at it from a place of kindness and caring about her, bc she did not have me fooled lol
When you were talking about the gyroscope you said "it makes Victoria P..." and I really thought you were telling me that this woman peed her pants on national television on a DATING SHOW, no less

I like to think that the moment they all yelled “no!” at Pete when he asked if they really slept in those clothes, they all had a moment of clarity that they had to choose to ignore to stay on 😂
You know how some people say the moon landing was faked? Faking a Bachelor trip to Ohio would be easier. After all, the moon is right there in the sky so it's clearly real, unlike Ohio which everyone knows doesn't actually exist in the first place. :P (In all seriousness, my condolences that you are stuck in Ohio. I'm trying to escape my own state for reasons, but at least it's a decent one for me to be trapped in for now.)
i found out literally over a year after my wedding that one of my guests was a contestant on the bachelor and i am so angry i did not know this while my wedding was actually happening
Haven’t watched the Bachelor(ette) franchise but I LOVE these recaps. I’m half way through this one and not surprised all of the WOC get cut off and pushed to the background with zero narrative.
Pete’s season was WILD!!! The way he panic proposed at the end 😭 the lifting up making out 😷 the way he wasn’t the same after hitting his head… THE FLIES
Speaking of EGOTs, how about reenacting all those scenes? It’s truly a talent to nail the stupidity of all those conversations without breaking character
Breaking: sometimes people behave differently in different situations. More at 11! In all seriousness, it drives me nuts when people obsess over whether people they don't know are "fake" or not, as if having a persona were inherently sinister and as if there weren't a massive gray area between "behaving the exact same way all the time with no filter" and "pretending to be someone you're not in order to trick people" (a gray area that most of our social interactions exist in, might I add). Whether it's code-switching, masking, customer service voice, or just not cursing in front of your boss, modifying the way you speak around different people is a ubiquitous experience! Even if you're neurotypical and have never been consciously aware of it (which I find hard to believe tbh, surely everyone has said something that provoked a negative reaction and noticed), you're still doing it, just more intuitively.
Do you like, work? Chase Rice? The singer we just saw Chase Rice? Excuse you, what? Hannah Ann is an angel on earth. Don’t let her go. Bring her home. When I tell you I quote ALL OF THIS at least once a day, I’m serious. The most frustrating season while it aired, but the gift that keeps on giving in hindsight. So chaotic the lord humbled us with miss r0n@
“He socializes, her parties.” Omg I can keep going. VF just being an overall menace to society, Saying Madi’s name while proposing to Hannah Ann, Barb at AFTR failing to succeed, Madi and Peter breaking up AFTER A DAY WHILE HE WAS WITH KELLEY, Peter and Kelley, Chaos.
These bachelor/ette videos are an amazing way to enjoy the drama without watching any of it. I would actually watch videos about every single season from you
why was sydney being wrong the hot take? i listened to your reenactment and was like, alayah did/said nothing wrong-she was just answering honestly and sydney's attacking her passive aggressively for no reason
Yeah, I honestly found this really difficult to watch as a former pageant girl. I was relentlessly bullied in high school for being "fake" and was friends with several girls who dealt with the same. The thing is, it's beaten into you by coaches and boards that you always have to be perfect, constantly smile, and be prepared for any question. Texas is the single most competitive state in the country, so I can't imagine the training she underwent and the pressure to be flawless she was under. I really feel for her because everything was stacked against her here.
I feel like Aleya (is that how it's spelt?) could be falling back on her pagentry background for the cameras. And Sydney is just projecting, it feels icky how they all gang up on her like they know her personally or don't do the same in different ways.
Yeah, like to me it was all so dumb and unnecessary. Like they are on a reality show with cameras on them 24/7. You are naturally going to act a little different
oml i cannot bear the back n forth tattle tale routine 😭 its so excruciating and production always ensures the bad actors stay as long as possible, plus it snares otherwise likeable people into being annoying anti-villains
Im honestly pissed off at how the women treated Alayah while most likely knowing it would mess with peter considering what happened with Hannah and Luke like AYO?!?! I wanted to yell at them through the screen. Like yeah of course she has a slightly different voice on camera than off THATS WHAT SHE WAS TRAINED TO DO but that doesn't make her fake like what. Alayah was the only one I could stand. Victoria F was an annoying prick and so was victoria P
ashley i am a fine art student and i was re-re-watching ur other bachelor vid JUST today while painting and i was thinking i could do with another one of these. i cannot wait for all my dreams to come true. i wish for a million dollars
Not the fundie snark shoutout 😭 I have never watched the bachelor and you just gave me some much needed context for the veil abomination and the “looking satan in the eye” posts omg. One of us!
the disappointment i felt when kelsey said “it’s not about the champagne” and it didnt immediately clip to james kennedy going “it’s not about the pasta!” on vanderpump rules 💔
one thing about me is that when ashley norton posts, i’m always there. i’ve never watched or had an interest in the bachelor.. but when ashley makes a video on it, suddenly i’m the biggest bachelor fan
this was the first season of the bachelor i watched. i was in my senior year of college and my roommates and our significant others would gather around and play drinking games and watch the episodes. all before/during the pandemic so it kinda holds some value in my heart it’s wild. thank you for this recap omg please PLEASE do more!!
Your breakdown of Hannah B’s season has become a comfort video that I’ve watched about a billion times… you have no idea how I’m excited for this one 🤩🤩🤩
I'm kinda fascinated by what Peter is and isn't into because after everything that happened in champagnegate I would not be giving Kelsey a rose solely on the basis that nobody needs the drama of having her around
my and my grandma stayed up for possibly every night for a week straight watching the season of the bachelorette that Peter was in and we LOVED HIM, he was our favourite option for the girl but he wasn't chosen and we were devastated, seeing this video on my feed was such a rush of memories so thank you for making this lol
@@beckyginger3432 hello everyone, im here to update you all! i went and watched ashley's video about hannah brown for this video (as preliminary reading) and got hooked. just finished this video now due to being busy with finals for college this week though. my thoughts: - i miss mike johnson - hannah deserved better and she should run for president - peter's mom should be a character on every season of the bachelor/the bachelorette
Beautiful video Ashley. You are so genuine and real ❤
Agree. I've watched approx one second of the video and you're so genuine and real. Can't wait to dive in ❤
agreed
You are here for the right reasons
So real ❤
the comment from 5 hours ago is so real and genuine
You know if Peter had let them tell their embarrassing sex stories he might have learned about the abstinence thing earlier.
Omg right
wait omg
Consider this comment the petition to have Ashley's wedding officiated by Peter Webber AND John Paul Jones!!! 💍💍💍
my wedding won't be the same without them
john paul jones walks her down the isle 😪
Unicycles her down the aisle*
Yas both of them officiate it!
Yas queen.
The smear campaign on Alayah is exactly why "being on The Bachelor" would probably be what purgatory looks like for me. What a fucking nightmare.
I feel so bad. Obviously her actions spurred some of that on. But being called a pill popper for prescription Adderall is just cruel and gross. She likely has ADHD which makes this show even more disregulating than for neurotypical contestants.

Meanwhile Peter has a personality of a paper airplane
At least he provides a way out for the girls, can fly them back home!
@@ashleynorton you should watch him on the traitors!!
Truly a mid guy. It doesn't feel like he deserves all the he he gets, but deffo not ready for marriage or probably even a serious relationship.
Hannah is a mid girl, who can't read a person to save her life and literally has nothing going for her.
i love how instead of a show about making a commitment of marriage at the end, this guy seemed not even remotely ready for a long term relationship
He was on TWO SEASONS of this show and still didn't seem to grasp the point. 😂 I almost feel bad for him, he seemed genuinely obtuse rather than malicious.
Yesss he has "let's see where it goes", doesn't want labels vibes and these girls literally signed up for a show where you essentially win a lifetime commitment to the series lead.
And then has the audacity to send someone home when they say they’re having ‘fun’ with him because NO. This is *serious* business 🫣🙃🥴🤨
is it just me or does "don't let her go. bring her home to us" give the same energy as "show it to me please. send it to me Rachel"?
they're the same picture

Exactly what I thought about omfg

Do you like, work? Chase Rice? The singer we just saw Chase Rice? Excuse you, what? Hannah Ann is an angel on earth. Don’t let her go. Bring her home.
When I tell you I quote ALL OF THIS at least once a day, I’m serious. The most frustrating season while it aired, but the gift that keeps on giving in hindsight. So chaotic the lord humbled us with miss r0n@
“He socializes, her parties.” Omg I can keep going. VF just being an overall menace to society, Saying Madi’s name while proposing to Hannah Ann, Barb at AFTR failing to succeed, Madi and Peter breaking up AFTER A DAY WHILE HE WAS WITH KELLEY, Peter and Kelley, Chaos.
Chase Rice? As in survivor Nicaragua runner up Chase Rice?
@@FrogInTheAlps just another level of chaos that chase rice was also on survivor
@@FrogInTheAlps He lost to Fabio even 😭
These bachelor/ette videos are an amazing way to enjoy the drama without watching any of it. I would actually watch videos about every single season from you
why was sydney being wrong the hot take? i listened to your reenactment and was like, alayah did/said nothing wrong-she was just answering honestly and sydney's attacking her passive aggressively for no reason
Honestly the way Sydney treated Alayah made ME feel bullied, she was so targeted it made me stressed.
i feel like I remember fans being more split when this aired. But watching it back i'm a full alayah apologist. she deserved better
It seems like they sent Syndey to set Alayah up for the entire "villian" arch
Yeah, I honestly found this really difficult to watch as a former pageant girl. I was relentlessly bullied in high school for being "fake" and was friends with several girls who dealt with the same. The thing is, it's beaten into you by coaches and boards that you always have to be perfect, constantly smile, and be prepared for any question. Texas is the single most competitive state in the country, so I can't imagine the training she underwent and the pressure to be flawless she was under. I really feel for her because everything was stacked against her here.
I feel like Aleya (is that how it's spelt?) could be falling back on her pagentry background for the cameras. And Sydney is just projecting, it feels icky how they all gang up on her like they know her personally or don't do the same in different ways.
Yeah, like to me it was all so dumb and unnecessary. Like they are on a reality show with cameras on them 24/7. You are naturally going to act a little different
ITS LIKE YOU KNEW I JUST REWATCHED YOUR VIDEO ON HANNAHS SEASON
Honestly same!
Glad I'm not the only one 😂
I literally fell asleep watching it last night 😂
Literally just before bed last night !
your barb reenactment skills were so on display in this video - truly ✨chefs kiss ✨
Who needs food, water, and shelter when we've got Ashley's two-hour long videos to sustain us???
oml i cannot bear the back n forth tattle tale routine 😭 its so excruciating and production always ensures the bad actors stay as long as possible, plus it snares otherwise likeable people into being annoying anti-villains
Barb was born for the screen
Im honestly pissed off at how the women treated Alayah while most likely knowing it would mess with peter considering what happened with Hannah and Luke like AYO?!?! I wanted to yell at them through the screen. Like yeah of course she has a slightly different voice on camera than off THATS WHAT SHE WAS TRAINED TO DO but that doesn't make her fake like what. Alayah was the only one I could stand. Victoria F was an annoying prick and so was victoria P
You deserve an Oscar for your reenactment of Barb's speech. Perfection!
The reenactments were impeccable, I have never seen an episode of this show and don’t plan on it because your portrayal was so spot on 🙌🏻
Your video on Hannah's season is in my "comfort videos to fall asleep to" routine so you cannot believe the gasp that left me seeing this thumbnail
living for your recreations of these scenes, you really capture the high stress deranged energy of every interaction in this show
ashley i am a fine art student and i was re-re-watching ur other bachelor vid JUST today while painting and i was thinking i could do with another one of these. i cannot wait for all my dreams to come true. i wish for a million dollars
Not the fundie snark shoutout 😭 I have never watched the bachelor and you just gave me some much needed context for the veil abomination and the “looking satan in the eye” posts omg. One of us!
the disappointment i felt when kelsey said “it’s not about the champagne” and it didnt immediately clip to james kennedy going “it’s not about the pasta!” on vanderpump rules 💔
one thing about me is that when ashley norton posts, i’m always there. i’ve never watched or had an interest in the bachelor.. but when ashley makes a video on it, suddenly i’m the biggest bachelor fan
The thumbnail is giving Empress Theresa, 10/10 no notes
lmao you're so right
Was NOT expecting an Empress Theresa reference in this comment section
the pilot hat for peter in the recreations... never stop this channel i'm HOWLING
I will now be saying "Like David Cross calling Stanley Tucci bald" whenever the situation calls for it. Thanks Ashley!
this was the first season of the bachelor i watched. i was in my senior year of college and my roommates and our significant others would gather around and play drinking games and watch the episodes. all before/during the pandemic so it kinda holds some value in my heart it’s wild. thank you for this recap omg
please PLEASE do more!!
“Hannah Ann is me…. I’m in love” PLSSS☠️
I was listening to video and sort of zoned out and literally thought the recreation was the real conversation clip. Incredible acting.
Your breakdown of Hannah B’s season has become a comfort video that I’ve watched about a billion times… you have no idea how I’m excited for this one 🤩🤩🤩
the acting was stellar!! those were genuinely the BEST parts of this video,along with the thorough info dumps
stop i literally was rewatching your hannah brown video last night and thought “she needs to make a pilot pete video” IM SO EXCITED
i gasped with joy when i saw this video notif. please make as much bachelor content as you want, you do it masterfully
49:56 the reaction that they are going to Cleveland definitely says that all of these women have seen the hastily made Cleveland tourism videos.
I'm kinda fascinated by what Peter is and isn't into because after everything that happened in champagnegate I would not be giving Kelsey a rose solely on the basis that nobody needs the drama of having her around
kelsey, after starting drama about champagne: i dont even like champagne
my and my grandma stayed up for possibly every night for a week straight watching the season of the bachelorette that Peter was in and we LOVED HIM, he was our favourite option for the girl but he wasn't chosen and we were devastated, seeing this video on my feed was such a rush of memories so thank you for making this lol
watching this as a person who has never seen an episode of the bachelor i will update with my thoughts when the video is done
Omg what's the update?
@@beckyginger3432maybe they're splitting it up, respectable choice
@@beckyginger3432I guess the video killed them 😔
@@beckyginger3432 hello everyone, im here to update you all! i went and watched ashley's video about hannah brown for this video (as preliminary reading) and got hooked. just finished this video now due to being busy with finals for college this week though. my thoughts:
- i miss mike johnson
- hannah deserved better and she should run for president
- peter's mom should be a character on every season of the bachelor/the bachelorette
it took me a week of watching this while eating to finish the video, but my god, THIS is peak Ashley Norton content. my absolute favorite video!
your bachelor videos have become a watch party event in my household
i am so enthralled by every moment of this THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR MAKING IT YOU ARE SO GENUINE AND REAL
