Previously on "The Bachelor," Tiffany from San Francisco was denied a rose, but Amy from Stockton stuck around because she knows what time it is, she has love for Matt Grant, and she wants to continue to rock his world. Date Box! Hollie read the note, and eight girls, including herself, would be putting on some kind of runway show. Oh, "The Bachelor." We have seen "Project Runway;" "Project Runway" is our friend on MySpace;......

Today's Reality TV Locals coverage is comin' at you in duo post style. "America's Next Top Model" and "The Bachelor" are below. Check back later this afternoon for "Top Chef" coverage! Previously on "America's Next Top Model," Marvita got boned. In the Top Model Lair, Marvita confessed that she can't stay in relationships for long, and doesn't do the whole kissing and holding hands thing. She realizes it has a lot to do with her......

It was Meet the Parents week on "The Bachelor" which is always good for a laugh. Or a cringe. And Brad's visit to Walnut Creek to meet Sheena's parents was mainly in the cringe-worthy department. The day started with Sheena's parents dragging her and her bachelor behind their boat in an inner tub. Which, you know, fine. Some people like that kind of thing. But then Sheena's mother started talking about astrology and the stars......

Last week on "The Bachelor," Sheena-From-Walnut-Creek was granted a coveted one-on-one date with Brad-the-Bachelor, and it turned out to be the Pretty Woman date in which Sheena got to choose her evening gown from a roomful of mannequins, ate dinner amongst balloons and a string symphony, and was given a pair of diamond earrings (which she got to keep). But the highlight of the evening, for us, was when Sheena walked down the stairs......

We lost a geek last week, but we still had a local bachelorette to root for along with a "dream date" to our fair city on "The Bachelor"! The first group date involved clowns, and was therefore instant fast-forward fodder for us, especially since it didn't involve Sheena. Some chick named Hillary won a one-on-one date with Brad and they took a private jet to San Francisco and had a fancy dinner in a private......

While the number of ladies on "The Bachelor" was cut down considerably at last week's rose ceremony, there are still way to many women to keep track of. Thankfully we only need to focus on Sheena, Queen of Walnut Creek. There was a bit of excitement in the house when some chick apparently fell down some stairs and Sheena found her and called the paramedics. Needless to say, she didn't go on the group......

Oh lordy, but Mondays are going to be a crowded night of television. Let's go through tonight's premieres network-by-network, starting with ABC. America's inexplicable love for dancing continues with another season of "Dancing With the Stars" at 8 p.m. You can find a complete list of the "stars" who'll be hoofing along this time around on the show's Web site, but we'll admit, we don't really have a horse in this race. Although as far......

Previously on "The Bachelor: Officer and a Gentleman," the bachelor chose local gals Bevin and Tessa as his final two. And we all know who he ultimately chose, especially since she was spilling the beans weeks ago, but let's take a look at the highlights (or hopefully, low lights) of the season finale. It was time for the girls to meet Andy's family, which included his parents, his grandparents, and his sister. Because what's......

With "Survivor" out of the way, we can now concentrate on "The Bachelor: Officer and a Gentleman." Oh joy! We'll admit we've been reading a lot of gossip about the show, rife with spoilers, and while those spoilers might not be true, we kind of think they are. We won't spill the beans here, but we'll just say it's kind of taken the suspense out of the whole thing. And we'll also add: we......

Long story short, we were on vacation last week and didn't have time to get to "The Bachelor." We'll give you a (possible!) double dose next Monday. Previously on "Survivor: Fiji." One word: Yau-Man. Or is that two words? Whatever. Our local Survivor kept a hold of his Immunity Idol, and stuck around for another week. Did he go all the way? Is it possible you haven't heard yet?! Well, settle in, because we just......

Previously on "The Bachelor: Officer and a Gentleman," our two local gals were still in the running towards becoming America's Next Ex-Girlfriend. The inevitable "boot camp" episode began with the requisite drill sergeant screaming at the women to get out of bed during the wee hours of the morning, followed by running in place, push-ups, and screaming questions like, "DO YOU HAVE ANY NOTIONS WHY YOU THINK YOU SHOULD...BE...ANDY'S BACHELORETTE?!" (!) "BECAUSE I'M THE......

Let's start with "The Bachelor" this week. Previously, two local gals, Bevin and Tessa, received roses from Andy the Bachelor. Their long nightmare was just beginning. This episode had the girls going on group dates, the first of which included both Bevin and Tessa amongst the group as they delved further into the career of Debra Winger and took in some mechnical bull riding. Tessa gained points early on by faking an injury in......

The fall TV season continues to grow with the premiere of two more shows tonight. The first is the return of "The Bachelor" at 9 p.m. on ABC. Yes. They STILL haven't cancelled that piece of crap. Instead they've just decided to move it to Europe--more specifically, Rome. The bachelor this time around is some kind of bonafied prince who happens to live in the United States. Whatever. All we know is there isn't......

Our local theater companies have shows much more unique than prix fixe menus for Valentine's Day....

We had to go to the Television Without Pity recaps of The Bachelor to figure out which one new Niner Jesse Palmer was. Oh, yeah, that guy. We thought he was kinda hot in a very International Male way until he started talking, and then we didn't any more. And not that we think every romance needs to have a wedding, but to end up offering the winner a plane ticket to New York?......

As compelling as the season finale of "The Bachelor" is, wouldn't you rather spend tonight doing something a little less lame? Our friends at Porchlight have been running their monthly series of 10-minute note-free themed evenings for a bit, and the buzz just keeps growing (from the junebugs or the hipsters, we're not sure). Tonight's event is entitled "Why Don't You Kill Me: Tales of Complete Loserdom", and features our boys Matty G and......

SFist contributor and virtual TV pundit Rain Jokinen offers her Bay-area-centric TV picks of the week We'll make this simple: Vote. And then go watch some TV. Your best bet for local coverage of election results and local ballot measures is probably KRON Channel 4. Their official coverage starts at 4:30pm. You can watch election coverage on the networks tonight, and hope for another breakdown from Dan Rather, or you can hold out until 10:00pm......
