Things were going well, but then Demi revealed that she had been and couldn't stop thinking about her. and he supported . Although he was discouraged, Derek remained on BIP in hopes to find his forever. He thought he was in the beginning stages of having that with . The problem with that was John Paul Jones also had feelings for Tayshia. You see, JPJ and Tayshia had a thing going on earlier in the season, but she encouraged him to go on other dates to explore his feelings, which is when she got closer with Derek. at the confrontation heard around Mexico and let him know that he didn't trust Derek's intentions and believed, based on comments JPJ said he heard from Derek, that he took advantage of women. JPJ went to Tayshia crying, explaining how strongly he felt for her. Understandably, Tayshia felt torn between the two guys and had a rough time figuring out where her head was at. However, it came as a shock to Bachelor Nation that she pulled Derek aside and told him that she didn't see a long-lasting relationship with him. Derek was super hurt by that, and did the only thing he felt in his heart that he could do. "I thank all of you guys for all the friendships that I've built here," Derek said to his fellow cast mates. "Unfortunately, this time for me, that's all I've been able to built. I'm actually going to head out now." But don't worry, Derek, we already found a handful of people who promise to never break your heart.

Some of the biggest, buzziest shows of the last few years have been book adaptations, and it doesn't seem like the trend is slowing down anytime soon. Like it's done with and , HBO has a few TV shows based on books in the works (and some of which have already premiered), while Starz and Netflix - which have adapted and , respectively - are also adding more books-to-TV shows to their line-ups.

Warning! Spoilers ahead for Orange Is the New Black. If there's one thing Red has always loved at Litchfield (and now Litchfield Max), it's her prison family. Who, exactly, is included in that family might vary from season to season on , but it's clear that Red values loyalty and honesty. So when she learns that some of her allies seemingly betray her during their interviews with the federal investigators in season six, it's no wonder Red is more than a little displeased. This rift carries into season seven, and might have you struggling to remember one important question: what happened between Red and Frieda? When the investigations start, it's clear that the feds aren't very invested in finding out what truly happened during season five's Litchfield riot. Instead, they're looking for a few people to blame for the events, regardless of whether that blame is justified. The investigation leads plenty of inmates to turn on each other, trying to deflect responsibility and avoid having time added to their sentences. Nicky, for example, agrees to name Red in her statement so that she won't have time added to her sentence for her distribution of the prison medications during the riot. Because Nicky explains the situation to Red, though, she forgives her. But Red is less forgiving toward Frieda, who also names Red during her conversation with the feds. During the conversation Frieda has with the investigators, they tell her that the supplies in the bunker have her fingerprints on them (no surprise, since she's the one who discovered and stocked it in the first place). Frieda tells the investigator that she and the others simply "immobilized" Piscatella, and that they didn't kill him. But the investigator tells her that she'll have to name someone else in addition to Taystee. We don't see Frieda explicitly name Red, but Frieda is taken to Florida right after the investigator suggests she give a Russian name. It's implied that Frieda reluctantly agrees and names Red as being responsible for Piscatella's torture. At first, Red doesn't know what happened with Frieda, and she's actually happy to see her during the walking circle exercise in episode three. Before her conversation with the investigators, Frieda tells Red that she attempted suicide because of her past, . But over the course of season six, Red's resentment for Frieda grows strong enough that she teams up with Carol to try to take Frieda down. In a particularly heartbreaking moment, Red chooses to attack Frieda rather than visit her grandchildren after begging her son to bring them to the prison. Plenty of former Litchfield friendships have been destroyed on OITNB, and it's sad to see Red and Frieda at odds in season six given their history together. Their storyline is a harsh reminder of the awful choices the inmates often have to make, and it's easy to see both characters' points of view. Fortunately, through a surprising and sad twist, they're able to be somewhat civil in season seven after it's revealed Red is suffering from early-onset Dementia. Following her diagnosis and a few situations that put her life in danger (ex: forgetting why she went into the freezer and staying there for hours, nearly freezing to death), Red is moved to the safer "Florida" block of the prison. As soon as Frieda sees her there, she drops her tray in fright, expecting a fight. But then Red warmly greets her, clearly having no idea who Frieda is. Her former friend graciously introduces herself and shows her around the new block. By the series finale, Red does end up having a brief flash of remembrance of her history with Frieda and the two nearly come to blows, but Frieda is able to get in her cell in time to keep a furious Red out. There's no telling where their stories will end, but we have faith they'll be able to patch things up and live peacefully. (If Red forgets all about it, of course.)

It's been a long road to the premiere of the Disney Channel Original movie , and judging by the reaction from the fans, the network has another hit on their hands. The third installment of the musical franchise as our favorite villain kids - Mal, Evie, Carlos, and Jay - return to the Isle of the Lost in an effort to . But a close encounter with her disgruntled father sends things into a tailspin as it moves Mal to suggest closing the barrier between Auradon and the Isle for good.

fans, take note - the Academy Award-winning film actress is coming to television for Amazon's new anthology series , and let's just say she doesn't have an Oscar for nothin'. Hathaway plays a woman struggling with bipolar disorder while also trying to live a normal life, with the episode exploring how her mental illness, which she is terrified to reveal to anyone, is touching all of the relationships in her life. Hathaway told the 2019 TCA Summer press tour that she was "humbled" by the experience of playing this character, a role she did not take lightly. In fact, she made it a point to reach out to the woman who wrote on which her episode is based. Related: "Lexi is based on a woman, Terri Cheney, who has written a book called Manic, and she is very open about her journey with bipolar disorder," Hathaway said. "I spoke with her on the phone at great length and she was invaluable . . . the range of what she helped with, from the cadence of her voice to being able to ask her about how do you physically feel when you're having a manic episode versus when you're having a depressive episode. She really illustrated to me how weighted down she would feel during a depressive episode, how objects become almost impossible to lift, how everything that hours before was so easy and magical just becomes impossible and hopeless. That was really illustrative to me." Part of what Hathaway likes so much about the role is that it illustrates a very different kind of love than the typical boy-meets-girl romantic love. "In my case, with Lexi, I think if we're honest with ourselves a lot of us have to learn that we're worth loving," Hathaway said. "I think that's a journey a lot of people go on, whether or not you have bipolar disorder. I imagine having bipolar disorder makes it that much harder for folks to imagine that someone wants to take you on. And it's this huge block in Lexi's life. She talks about just needing one person, just one person to accept all of her and that's really what we all, I think, what we all want." Related: Over the course of the episode, Lexi finds that one person who she finally feels like she can open up to, and it changes everything for her. "That one person giving her the space, being patient, being compassionate, and being a true loving person in her life changes everything for her, gives her hope and gives her a future," Hathaway said. Finally, Hathaway hopes that her episode of Modern Love can in some small way move the needle in how we speak about mental illness and the stigmas that often accompany it. "I was really humbled by this experience because I played someone who is bipolar . . . for eight days and it wrecked me for a month afterwards. I couldn't find my equilibrium and it is not lost on me that it was a choice that I had, that I could walk away from it, I could distract myself out of it, that it wasn't a diagnosis," Hathaway said. "It expanded my compassion so much for people who have no choice in this matter. It made me really honored to be a part of this story because it's something that touches our lives a lot . . . and I'm not sure we know how [to talk about it]." She added, "I have no illusions that this episode is the magic bullet, but I do think it's a common touchstone now."

However, unlike the other pilot, Peter showed up on the first night in his uniform - and Hannah seemed to love the entrance. Peter is 27 years old and from Westlake Village, CA, about 40 minutes from Los Angeles. But even the sunny West Coast can't keep him in one place for long. You could say that being a pilot is embedded into Peter's DNA. His dad is a pilot and his mom was a flight attendant, and that's the adorable way they met. Peter's younger brother, Jack, is keeping the tradition going as the . "I've always wanted to be a pilot, ever since I was a little kid," Peter said on the first episode. "[I've] grown up in an aviation family." In March 2018, Peter announced that he was taking on a new adventure. Let's just say that you may spot him as the pilot on your next flight. "I've wanted to become a major airline pilot my entire life and today I'm so excited to announce I've accepted an offer to ," he captioned an Instagram photo.

season 15 contestant Garrett is a golf pro, but his profession isn't what has fans talking.

He told her he wanted to be her hole in one. Well hello there, Garrett! Anyway, Garrett is from Alabama - Birmingham, to be exact. And his ABC profile notes that he's a "humble country boy," which sounds like just the type of person who'd be perfect for Miss Alabama USA herself. Even emphasizes some of those similarities.

He's a , and it looks like he has plenty of school spirit, just like Hannah. Only time will tell if these two actually hit it off as season 15 continues.

Welcome to Game of Thrones: MVP of the Week, a weekly feature in which we crown the character who stands out most during each episode of season eight. The MVP may have had the most kills, given the best monologue, or died the most heroic death. (Hey, we're just covering all our bases!) The end of is nearly here, and the penultimate episode, "The Bells," clumsily sets us up . As with every episode this season, "The Bells" takes us from point A to G, with everything in-between happening off-screen or being alluded to. Some characters that still has me scratching my head, while others reach in ways that feel undeniably flat. The episode (and kind of this entire season), has moments of brilliance, but mostly manages to make everyone watching frustrated about something. Which, in turn, makes it hella difficult to give any of the characters a nod for good behavior! Fortunately, those brief moments of brilliance do allow two characters to shine in an episode where everyone else is acting a straight fool. Like, , only to turn around and betray her by setting Jaime free and telling him to leave Westeros with Cersei? Pretty sure his dragon queen wouldn't be terribly pleased to learn about that! And somehow, Jon has basically become the most well-paid extra on television, because all he's done in the past few episodes is swing his sword and tell people that Danerys is his Queen. Make a move, dude! But, I digress. Regardless of Sunday's uneven story, I'm giving this week's MVP award to Varys, the only person with the realm's best interests in mind. But before you lose it, yes, I'm also crowning the Hound runner-up, solely because he's the one who takes Arya off her path of vengeance against Cersei and possibly sets her up . Related:

Warning: Big Game of Thrones spoilers below! Did anyone else think Daenerys was about to go wild at the end of the most recent episode of ? The Dragon Queen is being tested in a major way, and her patience is failing. The once benevolent leader is now seething with a righteous anger that leads Varys to hint to Tyrion that their beloved queen's behavior is more than a little tyrant-esque. After losing a large swath of her army, Ser Jorah, , and in just a matter of days, Daenerys is tired of playing games with Cersei. She's ready to take the Iron Throne by any means necessary, but that could also mean she's about to make a reality. . During his reign of the Seven Kingdoms, Aerys grew paranoid, eventually seeing everyone as the enemy, and often uttering his rallying cry of "" - he even tried to to do so. To her credit, Daenerys doesn't appear to have reached major paranoia, but the ruthlessness of her plans to take the throne hints at the worst part of . While all of the attention is being focused on Cersei's unquestionable cruelty, there are plenty of signs that the Dragon Queen is the one that people should fear. For example, she tries to force because she believes it's her destiny to rule the Seven Kingdoms. That desire for power can be corrupting, and there are plenty of signs that suggest Daenerys might get rid of Jon before allowing the North to champion him as the true ruler of Westeros. More immediately, she's about to show King's Landing the full extent of her strength by potentially unleashing dragon fire on a city full of innocents. With her obsession with burning her enemies alive, Daenerys is becoming more and more like her father every day. Now, that doesn't necessarily mean , but it should give you pause. Related: The Theory The Mad Khaleesi theory suggests that Daenerys has been behaving like her father for years now, but because so much of the story is from her point of view, it's hard to see her actions as cruel. After all, the Dragon Queen never targets innocents, with her victims being vicious khals, slave traders, and the Lannister army. But there is an undeniable brutality in her tactics, and nowhere is that more evident than in . She burns the father and son alive when they refuse to bend the knee, just seconds after she claims she's not in Westeros to murder. In season eight, she has a character challenging her vision of herself as a savior every step of the way, and . The lady of Winterfell's distrust in the Dragon Queen comes from an understandable place. She sees Daenerys as someone who is manipulating her brother's love for her own gain, and as a ruler who will demand fealty no matter the cost. These are clear warning signs for Sansa, and for the audience, that it's possible that the Daenerys we know and love is more dangerous than we could ever have imagined. The Evidence Varys has firsthand knowledge of what it was like to work for the Mad King, and in "Eastwatch" (the fifth episode of the seventh season), he shares his experiences with Tyrion. He recalls how he would find traitors to bring before the Mad King, and then he would stand aside and watch as he burned them alive. In "The Last of the Starks" (the fourth episode of the last season), he again comes to Tyrion with . This time, he points out that Daenerys's talk of destiny points to her being a tyrant in the making, because every tyrant he's known had the same ideas about themselves. He warns the Hand of the Queen that the Mother of Dragons no longer seems to have the people's best interests at heart - instead, she craves the power above all. As her closest allies continue to fall, Daenerys is becoming more and more distrustful of those around her. She no longer seems to value the council of Varys or Tyrion, and she sees herself as an outsider on this side of the sea. Most concerning of all is . She watches as Tormund and the North shower him with praise in the aftermath of the Battle of Winterfell, and it leaves her so angry that she storms off. Later, she begs Jon to keep the secret of his parentage to himself because she knows that the people of Westeros are more likely to choose him over her. Her growing paranoia and inability to trust those closest to her mirrors her father's descent into madness in a disturbing way. The loot train battle in season seven sees Daenerys raining fire down on the Lannister army indiscriminately. She burns them all, leaving only a handful of men standing at the end. She offers those men an option: join her or die. The lack of middle ground hints at the same extremism of her father, who showed his enemies no mercy. What's most distressing is that Daenerys claims to give these men a choice, when in actuality their only option is to bend the knee. She's ruling with fear, and fear was her father's weapon of choice. Now she's heading into another battle with the Lannisters, and there's no doubt that she will lead with terror. She only has one dragon left, but she's ready and willing to allow Drogon to burn King's Landing in retaliation for . Daenerys has always been fond of flames. It is fire that births her dragons, and fire that frees her from the khals. doesn't just kill anyone who gets in her way: she burns them, just like her father did, and that's not about to stop anytime soon. Related: What It All Means Daenerys is her father's daughter in many ways. Those who are firmly on her side have nothing to fear, but she demands absolute loyalty. If she receives anything less, she lashes out. She's made it clear through and Jon that she wants to rule all Seven Kingdoms, and she'll accept nothing less, even if it means destroying people and houses to get her way. There's also not doubt that she's ready to use to kill her enemies. In some ways, this is a show of strength, but in others, it is a warning sign that if she's not careful, Daenerys could still become known as the Mad Queen. Right now, the Mother of Dragons is backed into a corner by Cersei and her own anger and frustration with the way her homecoming has gone down so far. She's about to show us who she really is, and we need to be prepared for the possibility that we won't like what we see.

Sunday night's episode of was as much an emotional roller coaster as we expected with now just remaining. But even amid fast-moving, , one particular piece of dialogue sticks out. In the aftermath of the carnage of the Battle of Winterfell, Sansa Stark briefly reunites with Sandor Clegane, who wastes no time in referencing her rape at the hands of Ramsay Bolton, as he flippantly says he "heard [she'd been broken] in." Sansa responds by noting with pride that Bolton "got what he deserved" and that But what is likely meant to be an empowering exchange takes a frustrating turn when she seems to attribute all of her growth to experiencing abuse: "Without Littlefinger and Ramsay and the rest, I would've stayed a little bird all my life." The line feels like a callback to the misogyny and many sexist writing choices of previous seasons and hints at the frustrating limits of male writing of female characters. In many movies and TV shows - and certainly, on Game of Thrones - rape and sexual abuse are often treated as the only plot devices through which female characters can become "interesting," or grow and become strong. This has always been reductive and dehumanizing, not just to fictional characters but often to real-life survivors, too. Plot lines like this portray female characters who survive sexual assault as exclusively defined by what men do to them, and as a result, position them as objects. Sansa's words ultimately suggest rape is justifiable if it spurs perceived positives. This use of rape as an oversimplified gender trope can often be traced to male writers, like Game of Thrones creators David Benioff and D.B. Weiss, who wrote Sunday night's episode. In the aforementioned exchange between Sansa and the Hound in "The Last of the Starks," whether or not Benioff and Weiss intended this, Sansa's words ultimately suggest rape is justifiable if it spurs perceived positives. Her line implies the act of sexual violence itself rather than a survivor's fortitude and courage is what leads to growth in women and female characters like her. The underlying message, here, seems to be that the bodies of female characters can be relegated to collateral damage for the sake of one-dimensional male storytelling. There are several examples of this, certainly in Sunday night's episode, but also throughout the series. In the same episode Sansa seems thankful for her experiences with sexual violence, Missandei - the - for the purpose of angering Daenerys Targaryen and moving Daenerys's plot line forward. And unfortunately, in many ways, Missandei's execution is more of the same throughout the series, from Shireen Baratheon's gruesome death and Cersei Lannister's naked walk of shame in season five, to Daenerys's routine experiences with marital rape at the advent of the show and Gilly's life at Craster's Keep. Female characters and their experiences with trauma are often portrayed not in a human or vaguely thoughtful and sympathetic manner but, rather, as moving chess pieces by male writers. Granted, this criticism isn't new, and Benioff, Weiss, and George R.R. Martin, the author of the book series upon which Game of Thrones is based, have spoken to these complaints before. In 2015, in the aftermath of Sansa's experience with rape on her wedding night, reports said the show's creators "were responsive to the discussion and there were a couple of things that changed as a result" in the face of mass outrage. But one of the show's directors, Jeremy Podeswa, ultimately doubled down on defending the scene: "It is important that [the producers] not self-censor. The show depicts a brutal world where horrible things happen. They did not want to be too overly influenced by [criticism]," he . Martin has also in his writing. "The books reflect a patriarchal society based on the Middle Ages. The Middle Ages were not a time of sexual egalitarianism," he said in 2015. Martin added: "Most stories depict what I call the 'Disneyland Middle Ages' - there are princes and princesses and knights in shining armor, but they didn't want to show what those societies meant and how they functioned . . . And then there's the whole issue of sexual violence . . . I'm writing about war, which what almost all epic fantasy is about." Related: But the point they constantly miss is that no one is saying rape and sexual violence weren't devastating realities of the medieval world in which Game of Thrones and Martin's A Song of Ice and Fire are set. Rather, what many feminist critiques of the series point out is that using rape and violence as central points in storytelling for female characters over and over again is limiting and reductive - especially when rape is treated as the only thing that gives female characters humanity, dimension, and growth. Additionally, there is an undeniable irony in male writers like Weiss, Benioff, and Martin dismissing feminist criticisms of rape in their writing by mansplaining to their female critics that sexual violence was simply a reality of medieval society. The condescending insinuation here is that we, as modern women, have it so good, we couldn't possibly wrap our heads around the truth. Yet, ultimately, in a real-life world where in her lifetime, it's important to understand that sexual violence is so much more than a plot device to deal female characters in far away, fictional lands. It's something many women - and certainly, many women who watch Game of Thrones - grapple with in our real lives, not something that exclusively takes place in fantasy worlds and on TV screens. If Game of Thrones is as rooted in dark realities as its writers claim, then it should acknowledge how, in real life, surviving sexual assault is so much more than a storytelling device for women. And the show's writers should have adapted the series a long, long time ago to reflect this.

Warning: Game of Thrones spoilers ahead! As the final episodes of quickly approach, it's difficult to know exactly what's in store for our favorite characters. The race for the Iron Throne is a gamble, Arya's kill list is still left unfinished, and a few prophesies remain unfulfilled. But of all the unanswered questions, this one sits near the top of our list: The Mother of Dragons (now just one dragon, unless ) has a right to be pissed after Cersei beheaded her best friend, her boyfriend revealed he's actually her nephew, and she lost a large chunk of her defenses at King's Landing. However, there's a widespread expectation that her righteous anger will trigger something more tragic and deep-seeded. If is correct, the answer may have been hiding in plain sight, or rather, the stitching of her costumes. The user claims to have a background in costume history and compared from season seven to season eight for context clues. Season Seven If there's a word to describe , it would be "adaptable." She's young and impressionable when she first joins the Dothraki as Khal Drogo's wife, although she quickly finds her inner strength. Her fashion throughout seasons one through five, however, is still influenced by the places she lands, like Qarth and Meereen. Daenerys mostly wears shades of blue, ivory, khaki, and gray until season seven. Once season seven begins, she starts to blend the hues of her Targaryen roots (steel, black, and red) with the colors from her world of experiences. "When Dany went beyond the Wall to rescue Jon and the others, with black leather strip detail. The fur lining was white. The inner lining was grey. Her gloves were grey," Reddit user karsigo wrote. "White is associated with purity and in that episode, her intentions were pure – she put someone's else's needs and concerns above her own. There was a softness about her look that we may not see again." Season Eight Season eight sees Daenerys arriving in Winterfell, and with her comes a more intense expression of Targaryen pride. As the Reddit user notes, Daenerys infuses almost everything with red: the lining on her coat, her scarf, her leather strip detail, her gloves ("think blood on her hands"). "It's a nod to her Targaryen heritage, but the more red we see, the more she's inclined to embrace the fire-and-blood motto. The red-on-white is especially foreboding," the user wrote. "Notice all the Northerners wear subdued colors and grayish-brownish furs. Dany's advisors all wear muted colors. So Dany's white fur look is her way of announcing to those around her that she is of special status. You can bet Sansa, who stitches her own clothes, noticed that straightaway." Her fresh wardrobe also includes dresses with dragon scale detailing and spiky silver metal embellishments and coats with . This could be perceived as an intimidation tactic or a way for Daenerys to keep people at arms reach. It could also be seen as unavoidable step towards the darkness in her family line. Her powerful (and yeah, let's call it badass) new look closely mirrors Cersei's own dramatic change in attire over the past few seasons - a foreboding sign for the Breaker of Chains, indeed.
