All season, we’ve wondered exactly what Bret Michaels was searching for on “Rock of Love.” We figured that the “Poison” front man wasn’t really looking for love. We just know that these reality TV dating shows never work out. We’ve been through two seasons of “Flavor of Love”, oodles of “Bachelor” break-ups and an “I Love New York”.

We don’t think love can be found on reality TV. It’s just not how the mating ritual is meant to be played out.

However, knowing this, we still got sucked into “Rock of Love.” We cared about Bret. We wanted him to find a nice woman who could handle herself and the craziness of his life, not to mention, be a part of his daughters’ lives, with grace, dignity, intelligence and more. As the weeks wore on, we became invested in this process. We became enamored of Jes.
