It's not that I think stupidity should be punishable by death. I just think we should take the warning labels off of everything and let the problem take care of itself.
You know, I've been meaning to Slap Andy Baldwin since I saw the first ad for The Bachelor this season. He really is quite a hottie. And that military uniform!! YUM. But it took seeing Phil's name as having suggested Andy to remind me that I needed to get it done.
I just can't bring myself to watch the show - I can stomach a lot of bad TV, but The Bachelor, for me at least, crosses the line. I'm sure Andy has his shirt off - nearly constantly - during the show, but I'll just take the screen caps, thanks!
Anyway, Andy here is a surgeon in the Navy. And a triathlete. And absolutely beautiful. But getting back to the show for a moment - how can a guy that looks this good, and is this successful, need to meet women on such a dreadful TV show? At any rate, the ABC web site shows that he's down to the last four psychotic lovely women.
Perhaps the reason he has trouble meeting women is that, deep down, he doesn't want to meet women at all....

Lord, I've been watching this on abc.com and all I can say is that this guy defines "big and dumb." He's all beauty, no brains. Not that that's a bad thing...
I've always thought that if the folks that appear on this dreadful thing were half the catch they try to make themselves out to be they would already have been caught.

Handsome face, but his body looks kind of weird and overworked. The should-to-hip tapering looks too extreme. He clearly can't be be dumb if he's a surgeon, but he may be dull. My guess is, since he already clearly has his own website, he has champagne and caviar dreams he wants to exploit as soon as he gets out of the military and that's why he's on the show.
He puts the OH! in Speedo. David is right, his body is a bit mush - not crazy about big lumpy guys - butt, I can't stop studying at the speedos!

I haven't seen the show, but I don't see why you fellows think there is something not quite right about his body. He has a body many of us wish we had but are too lethargic to achieve. I think he looks more real than most of the porn actors and fitness models out there.
Calling him dumb is puzzling. Medical school is no stroll on the beach and becoming a surgeon is even more challenging. Internship after lasts at least a year, usually two, followed by two to five sleep deprived years as a resident specialising, with another two or more years in a fellowship to achieve real specialisation such as specialist surgeons, cardiologist, rheumatologist, etc. Pre-med programs involve massive amounts of chemistry, math, biology, and my personal non-favourite organic chemistry.
I sense a degree of envy in most of these posts manifested as remarks seeking to blemish his perceived perfection. Did I mention psychiatry takes a particularly long residency and fellowship period?

Oh, the things I'd do to this man. Body aside, he's got such a great face for me. Then there's that slammin' body. I do wanna hate on him 'cause I'm sure he's completely the kind of guy I love to hate but as eye candy goes... I'll take a bag full, please.
He's certainly flawless with a handsome face, perfect body and teeth like a piano keyboard, but somehow it's all too much, too perfect to be really sexy. I know that sounds crazy because I'd never be in the same league on his worst day, but still...too much perfection.
I've known guys like this: looks, money, success. Why are so many fucked up? Perhaps its that with the higher starting point, there is also the higher expectation, not only from others but self. Hopefully he's not one like that, but the overpowered car is suggestive. If he's not hiding gay under all that, he's looking for a trophy woman. He looks great, but strangely, not attractive.

I have watched the show for the first time ever because of Andy. He is beyond fine to look at, however I will agree...he comes across as 'dumb'.
Yes, doctors can be dumb.....intelligence has nothing to do with personality. As sweet as Andy is with the girls, he is certainly not the most engaging of conversationalists. He seems to have been scripted to say the same things about all the girls in the same dull monotone voice. He really shows no great personality, and Im sure his bedside manner would be deathly...tho Im sure his BEDTIME manner would be divine.

Ah, yes, the stuff dreams are made of - and he has to be somewhat intelligent to be in med school. Congrats to him that he has achieved it all physically. But, his career in show business is highly suspect with The Bachelor. Maybe that is why network TV continues to lose viewers in droves. The show sucks, and even such nice eye candy, it cannot be saved. Same way with many other shows, such as Lost, CSI, and Law and Order. There has to be a lot more substance to TV shows to keep the viewer tuned in. But, alas, too many turn to eye candy and disrobing to bring the viewers in. It is a great temporary fix, but in the end, the show is lost and viewers are gone. But, Andy will still be in my dreams!
