The Bachelorette premiere: Ranking the top 3 questionable contestants

THE BACHELORETTE – “1501” – It’s a tractor…It’s a plane…It’s the self-appointed king of the jungle! Hannah’s search for fierce love is matched with fierce competition as one hopeful bachelor sets a high bar by jumping the fence, while another pops out from the limo, in true beast fashion. At the end of the day, whether he is a golf pro looking to be Hannah’s hole-in-one, a Box King seeking a woman who checks all his boxes, or a man with a custom-made pizza delivery, everyone wants a piece of Hannah’s heart on the highly anticipated 15th season of “The Bachelorette,” premiering MONDAY, MAY 13 (8:00-10:01 p.m. EDT), on The ABC Television Network.

2. John Paul Jones

What kind of list would this be if we didn’t include John Paul Jones? He was easily the most memorable character we met during the Bachelorette premier. He’s going to get a lot of attention, be it good or bad.

You’ll remember him because of his name alone. John Paul Jones insists on being called John Paul Jones in full, which was actually the first thing he said to Hannah during the premiere. That’s right, of all the first impressions, he chose to emphasize that she better get his mother lovin’ name right. Maybe he’s harmless and goofy, but the move felt a little vain and forceful. At least it was memorable?

According to Chris Harrison, John Paul Jones will continue to insist on being called John Paul Jones throughout the rest of his time on the season. Here’s hoping he’s got a funny personality or that this turns out to be part of an elaborate joke, because right now this was a pretty big turn off.

We’re definitely not the only folks who feel that way either: there were more than a few Tweets last night from fans who were furious when JPJ lived to survive another rose ceremony when early fan favorite contestant (and this season’s Grocery Store Joe) Matt D. got the ax.
