'The Bachelorette': Season 10 Highs and Lows (VIDEO)



That's all, folks! Andi Dorfman made her decision last night on the dramatic finale of "The Bachelorette" Season 10 and (for now) all feels right in the world of reality TV romance.



(SPOILERS AHEAD!)



The Atlanta attorney picked Josh Murray to be her main squeeze forever and ever in a heartfelt mutual declaration of love. Unfortunately, poor salty Nick was sent packing and his exit wasn't exactly pretty. In fact, this season hasn't been all roses and butterfly kisses -- there were some tough moments to watch throughout this ... (we're gonna just say it) ... journey. And it's been an especially emotional season, as we all saw Andi, the crew, and the men deal with the tragic death of contestant Eric Hill.



It's been quite the ride, and we can count plenty of romantic highs and awkward lows along the way. Let's take a trip down memory lane, shall we?



HIGH

The guys sing with Boyz II Men. We really got to know these suitors in this odd display of musical (in)ability and all out silliness. These grown men had to croon "I'll Make Love to You" in front of a crowd and they committed. It was one of the more memorable group dates we've laid our weary "Bachelor nation" eyes on.





LOW

The men take lie detector tests. Why is this necessary? This does not happen in real relationship life. Not that "The Bachelorette" chronicles a typical dating situation per se, but having them take lie detector tests didn't need to happen here. Nope.



HIGH

Brian nails the half court shot! Coach Brian didn't make it to the finals, but we thought he was oddly endearing even if the chemistry between him and Andi wasn't there. When the guys all had to compete in a game of basketball he totally dominated and then made a half court shot in front of Andi later on. Sweet moves!





LOW

Brian doesn't nail a cooking date. But then Brian got totally closed off when he and Andi cooked together on their French one-on-one. It was really uncomfortable and we felt for everyone involved.



HIGH

Cody. Oh, lovable, goofy, wide-eyed Cody. You made it weirdly far in this race without seemingly talking to Andi once. And you came off sweet and thoughtful on your "Letters to Juliet" Verona outing with Andi. We're sorry you got the boot mid-date.





LOW

Everybody hates Nick. Sure, Nick was the runner-up, but he didn't really win over the other guys even if he kinda won over Andi. A lot of the "downtime" footage here revolved around their disdain for his cockiness.



HIGH? / LOW?

There was an odd date where Andi and pantsapreneur JJ had to dress up like the elderly and see what it would be like to grow old together. It was so ridiculous that we didn't know whether to laugh or cover our eyes.





LOW

Andrew. He wasn't really contestant-of-the-year material. And then there was that whole alleged racist remark thing that played out at "The Men Tell All."



HIGH

Hello, Chris! I think it's safe to say that most people were pretty taken with farmer Chris. He was a total sweetheart and his hometown date was one of the best by far. HIs family was adorable and he proved himself to be romantic and sensitive -- even hiring a plane to fly by and tell Andi he loved her. Aw.



LOW

Goodbye, Chris. Unfortunately Chris didn't become Andi's hubby-to-be and we had to watch his tearful sendoff. We think he'll be OK though.





LOW

Andi knocks on Nick's door. Well, all good OK things come to an end. Andi did the right thing by telling Nick she wasn't feeling it before he went ahead and proposed, but it didn't make it any less painful to watch. And it was even more painful when he tried to talk to her at "The Men Tell All." And then it got worse -- he confronted her at the inevitable "After the Final Rose" in a cringeworthy exchange. It's going to be alright, Nick!



HIGH

Josh proposes to Andi. We're just gonna say it: we're rooting for these crazy kids. And as ridiculous as this whole process can seem, we were pleased with the way Josh put his heart out there for Andi (and the world) to see. Good luck, you two!
