Chris Harrison Experiments With Eviscerating Bachelorette Rejects Instead of Gently Dismissing Them

Bachelorette host Chris Harrison has mastered the art of sending off disappointed suitors with grace and aplomb, using phrases like “Gentlemen, I’m sorry” and “If you didn’t get a rose, this is the end of the road for you.” But this season he’s mixing it up: Harrison tried out some tough new rose ceremony farewells on Jimmy Kimmel Live, and Kimmel approves. The new, harsher Harrison doesn’t mince words as he tells contestants that “it’s time to go cry in the limo with the sound guy” and sends them back to “whatever weird town [they] came from.”

Harrison is a good sport about it all, but we can’t help but notice he seems to be enjoying himself a lot when he orders the expectant suitors to “get the F out of here.”
