Chris Harrison endlessly cracks me up. His face in the above moment is straight as can be, yet simultaneously screams, “Sure you are” and “Just you wait”.

In keeping with my tradition of sharing my first-impression notes from the limo exits, here are the women that immediately stood out to me…

Alayah, 24, orthodontist assistant: Striking but sweet. Her DRESS! Major frontrunner potential.

Sydney, 24, retail marketing manager: Solid one-liner with “Not every girl from the south makes bad decisions”. I feel like she could be a dark horse of the season.

Hannah Ann, 23, model: This girl is CON-FI-DENT. Peter seems pretty taken with her. Serious frontrunner.

Sarah, 24, medical radiographer: I like that she shows her nerves. I’m not getting vibes from Peter though.

Lauren, 26, marketing executive: Love how down-the-earth and normal she seems. Elegant. Good on Peter for noticing and commenting on her (spectacular) “power jumpsuit”.

Victoria P, 27, nurse: I like that she takes a moment before walking towards Peter. Not sure if she’s praying or just soaking in the moment or what, but I (and I’m sure most contestants) wish I’d done something similar to just gather myself.

Mykenna, 22, fashion blogger: Yay, Canadian! She’s very pretty and expressive and I can see her being a major player (if not a frontrunner) this season.

Madison, 23, foster parent recruiter: She’s the right amount of cool, the right amount of confident. Giant paper airplane - this is cute. Also I’m legit impressed by that airplane (even if she had nothing to do with it).

Tammy, 24, real estate agent: Metal detector gimmick. As far as airport/flight/plane gimmicks go, this is pretty cute. She seems fun.

Kiarra, 23, nanny: The suitcase girl. DAMN that’s impressive.

I’ve mentioned over the years that Chris Harrison’s sense of humor for some reason rarely makes it on screen. I filmed this show years ago now (man, time flies!), but I haven’t forgotten my surprise at how funny his on-the-spot quips can be…
