In an episode I saw over the weekend Chip and the kids were going to the shelter because "the cat died" and Joanna said, "we have a cat, don't bring home another cat" so Chip brought back two kittens and a dog they weren't allowed to bring home right away. Then in another ep he was kvetching about having a bad morning because one of the dogs had run off and was trying to find it and she snapped back something about how about you don't look for the dog and you quit bringing new animals home. It was noticeable as a rare moment of real-seeming tension between them. It could all be fabricated for teevee. But its kinda surprising they went there if it is.

And then they bought the place five minutes from home...they were annoying. But I give their kid credit for eating that oyster he opened. Most kids wouldn't have touched it. Then the next episode...In what parallel universe can you buy an oceanfront house commuting distance to Boston for under $400k???

Another Chip Gaines shoutout with the DemoDay shirt on whichever future impregnator is on the far right... The Gaines must be delighted. Eyeroll.

I think they're really good with their kids, at least what we see on camera. And the kids are really cute. As an obsessed pet owner, the "it's adorable that Chip brings home new pets all the time without discussion with Joanna and might be an animal hoarder" storyline...no. Just no. They've got four kids, umpteen businesses and a farm...it's never cute to dump more pets into that without everyone being on board with the responsibility.

She's got the Duggar fake bite/smile down pretty well...but it doesn't match her eyes.

Anyone last through the episode long enough to provide a summary? I was already cranky and her voice...just.could.not.deal.

In Waco, Texas. Where the median home cost is $95 per square foot. Which should put the price around a hundred grand. Only off by a factor of ten...

And three years later...now everyone also wants a man cave or if they're being all classy, a "media room." Also an outdoor kitchen. And a "craft room."

Yowza. "Breakfast giblets." "Mustard blueberry shakes." "Liver on toast." And a spoonful of cod liver oil every night. On the other hand, they were still eating better than the Duggars.

First of all, that slop on a plate looks revolting. And if there are three whole mushrooms in a can of Campbell's cream of mushroom soup I'd be shocked, so no, Dufus, no vegetable servings to speak of. Second, if Mr. Wiser ever EVER referred to me as "wifey," even ironically...lets just say he's smarter than that by a mile. I want to feel sorry for Derick because he looks like he's in a world of pain plus he got sucked into the Duggar Vortex of Hell, but then he tweets and ruins it.

Can't tell you how much I don't need to see another Duggar wedding. Ever. Extra bonus points for "hammered dog shit," though. Applause!

She's been a vacant uterus for too long...time to get that baby machine fired up and serving the Lord. If she's dumb and clueless...she'll be a good little incubator and won't have thoughts or a will of her own.

So...God's money laundering operation. That's so Lord-centric and giving!

Does it make anyone else wonder if something even uglier is about to come out about La Familia Duggar? This lawsuit is such a desperate, poorly-timed cash grab that it makes me wonder... Hey, they have private planes to support! Leg humpers DONATING their pocket change isn't going to cut it!

I saw the show for the first time in a few years this weekend...I barely recognized Pnina. Maybe now that she's aged she'll start creating less body-dependent dresses?

Okay, so I haven't watched this show in a few years and happened to flip to it tonight...but holy backless strapless see-through Fredericks of Hollywood skanky sluttina, what has happened to wedding dresses? I thought Catherine brought classy back? I remember the Pnina see-through corset dresses and thought they were tacky enough...but compared to these dresses they were conservative. What's next? Ten grand for two blinged out pasties, a sequined thong, and a veil?

"What the hell is a 'side hug'?" Add yours, this is fun! "Love the sinner, hate the sin? You know I was 33 and a 'bachelor', right? Maybe dial down the hate toward teh gayz?" "Would you stop with the hand sex while I'm talking? You two are creeping me out. Get a room."

"You know pot is legal now, right?"

"Blush," my ass. Were those kitchen cabinets lavender or grey? Liked the blue backsplash but it made them look purple. I always struggle with geographic appropriation...super beachy (i.e. "Life is better at the beach" plaque) in the middle of the desert is just...faux. But hey, Vegas. All in all, not hideous this time except for the Hooker Barbie pink boudoir. But their flip budgets are bullshit. This was supposedly, what $23k? NFW. P.S. Please, HGTV, I'm begging you. Send that woman to a voice coach. Oh,the humanity...

They're probably drawing increasing numbers of WTF viewers...

Dunno. Duggars are pretty sue-happy.

Or two esses.

She is really stunning, especially since it's not in a 9-hours-in-a-makeup-chair kind of way. And I applaud her for having her own style...and never wearing stilettos. But there isn't a skin cream in the world that gives a working mother of four that perfectly smooth serene forehead. That's some serious industrial-strength botox.

If I knew how, I'd make sure every defense attorney on the receiving end of these suits had the links for these forums, FreeJinger, and all the others out there. There is some impressive intel here and out there...it's a gold mine for the defense. I hope that they at least have a tech-savvy searching the internet.

"JOSH IS PART OF THE LAWSUIT????"
