BURNING LOVE: Episode 7 - I Haven’t Been In Love In Like 17 MonthsJune 23, 2012

Burning Love (Yahoo! Originals)

ABC's "The Bachelorette" is back this summer with its umpteenth season. Wait, how many couiples have lasted so far? But before you give up on the dating serial, Yahoo! Originals throws its hose into the fire with the premiere of "Burning Lov e," executive produced by Ben Stiller. Sure it's scripted, but with Ken Marino, Michael Ian Black and the funniest comediennes taking their turn as marriage material to a TV hunk, it's more entertaining.

While every other bentertainment publication has "The Bachelorette" covered, On Demand Weekly's dating show expert Kate Asche Wilson will breakdown each episode as if she were right there in the mansion.

Episode 7: Thank you for the opportunity to love you.

After Agnes’ shocking elimination last episode I wondered if Mark could ever fully recover from his distressing decision to let her go. Luckily a group date is on the horizon, and what better way to soothe Marks aching heart than with a bunch of dumb sluts trying to roller skate.

The real Bachelor roller rink dates usually endin joyous laughter

while “Can’t Fight This Feeling” plays over the loudspeaker.

This one ends in deportation and pregnancy.

From the minute Julie, played by the gorgeous and hilarious June Diane Raphael, stepped out of the limo she captured Mark’s heart with her inability to remember quotes. Her overbearing nature kick started their developing relationship, but it’s the roller rink group date that really gets Mark thinking: Could she be the one?

Unfortunately an intense fear of roller rinks due to a deported Italian ex-finance tends to put a damper on true love. Mark, being the good guy that he is, can see past Julie’s past, and convinces her that although roller skating brings up terrible memories, conquering her fear is the only way she can move forward.

Their blissful roller skating happiness is brought to a screeching halt as Vivien goes into labor. Mark discovers that Vivien is pregnant, the girls rethink their methods of birth control, and Tim the medic considers going into a different profession.

My Prediction:

I still fully believe that Hayley will win this thing. However, Annie has come from behind to really be a serious contender for the final hose. She’ll definitely make it down to the final two or three. No promises after that. I would say that Julie and Vivien have a fighting chance, but I just don’t want to get your hopes up. Deportation and pregnancy don’t really sound like love to me.

In this heartbreaking hose ceremony TWO bachelorettes are sent home leaving only six left in the race for Mark’s heart. Watch Episode 7 of “Burning Love” on Yahoo to make your own predictions on which Bachelorette you think will win the final hose.
