I have been watching this on A&E and I had no idea it was offered on another network in a longer format with an aftershow. I didn't know what people were talking about when they mentioned the Jamie interviews. I thought maybe they were watching this online or something. Thank you for the posts clarifying this, although I still don't know what FYI is. Maybe I don't get that in my area? Kind of annoying that all viewers are not getting the same experience. I feel kind of left out LOL.

Thank you. That was the perfect recap and very funny. All I can remember seeing was the David apology in the kitchen. I must have passed out pretty early LOL.

Can you guys help me out? I was away last week, so I didn't watch. I started to watch the episode On Demand but I fell asleep about 20 minutes in I think and missed most of it. I can't fast forward through On Demand and I would have to watch the whole episode all over again, so I didn't bother. What happened? Thank you.

sorry posted in wrong week. Reposting question in last week's episode.

I thought he didn't look as fat as some of the other 600 plus pound people. I mean he was extremely obese but not as grotesque. Perhaps because of his height versus some of the women in recent shows. He could shower himself. He seemed like a great guy. I had missed the beginning and I was wondering about his son because he obviously didn't look like his biological child and yet he kept referring to him as "my son," so I watched the repeat. So nice that he accepted his wife's child so completely as his own. I think the guy from a couple weeks ago (forget his name) was also not the biological father of the two kids but also referred to them as his children. I wasn't positive about them though because they didn't really go into detail.

Did anyone notice that when David called Ashley from Buffalo and got her voicemail, the screen on his phone identified her name as "WIFEY" ? LOL. He put her into his contacts as WIFEY! Oh my God, give it up already!

It's called Ombre. Actually a high fashion trend. https://www.pinterest.com/explore/ombre-hair-color/

They don't really have a lot to do with the men, so if they have beards, they usually shave them. I was looking forward to Colby's horrible beard being shaved off, but I understand the reasoning behind leaving it. I do wish they had trimmed it a bit more. And Roberto (is that the twin that is left? Not even sure) - I am surprised they left his beard. His suit was way too small! Oh my God - the bottom button was popping off and his stomach was sticking out! Why didn't they get him a larger jacket! I was glad they shopped at a nice store at least. Last year it was Kohl's.

Stephen! Wow- he is really handsome! His wife would be really pretty too, but she has a huge double chin still. Colby's story was really sad. That got me. Trying to mop up the puddle of blood on the floor after his father shot himself. Tragic.

This show is just a horrible train wreck. I skipped a few episodes but watched last night. Just awful, awful, awful. I just can't even begin to comment. There is so much wrong with this show and everybody on it. And I see they are casting for next season ("casting" being the operative word).

Sorry but this just pisses me off. How blatant can this be. I mean I know these shows are fake and all but please.

I make mine from a box (although I make home made chicken soup to put the matzoh balls in) and my kids love them. I would imagine someone's grandma might make home made though LOL.

I have found this season really boring and I am having a hard time staying awake during the show. I also feel like I have not gotten to know any of the contestants yet.

I got the sense that they moved after she had already moved out on her own (in the group home). She just didn't like to visit them anymore because she was attached to the old home that she grew up in. She is an adult not living at home anymore and her parents have a right to move or downsize their empty nest.

I loved the Rachel story this week. I literally cried during the concert scene I was so touched. Regarding amnio it is advised for older mothers precisely because of the risk of Downs Syndrome. I was 34 going on 35 with my first pregnancy and I was advised to do it. I did it although I would not have aborted because of DS, but there are other, more serious conditions that can be detected. I have absolutely no recollection of getting it done with my second pregnancy, although I must have had it. I just can't remember having it done.

It is so boring that I literally haven't been able to stay awake for the show. I fell asleep and missed most of the episode last week and the entire episode this week. Ordinarily I would catch it later On Demand but I can't even be bothered. It would be a waste of an hour of my life. Just stopping by here to catch up on some snark. Sorry my post above was supposed to be a reply to this but I messed it up.

I think it is very telling that Ashley just broke up with a very long term boyfriend a year ago and it explains why she would have applied for the show. She probably thought she was going to marry this guy and now they are broken up and she is alone and nearing 30 and freaking out. She wants desperately to be married and this seems like a quick fix. Total rebound reaction. I have known so many people that broke up with very long term boyfriends or girlfriends and then married the first person that came along. With this show, she didn't even have to find a new boyfriend and wait for him to propose. The show would do it all for her and all she would have to do would be to show up and marry her Prince Charming. The problem is that there is no Prince Charming and she is totally unprepared emotionally to move forward with something like this. She realizes her mistake but it is too late. They never should have picked her for this show - Epic Fail in casting.

I couldn't tell if he had DS or not. I assume he is Developmentally Disabled but who knows. I used to work with a girl who was raised by her grandparents, although her mom lived with them too. It turned out the mom was Developmentally Disabled, although the father, who had left the family was not, and the grandparents were left to take care of both the daughter and her child. So I can certainly understand Megan's mom's concerns. I like Megan's mom a lot and I think she really loves Megan. I don't get that vibe from her at all that you mention. She is extremely pretty and in great shape, so I get that one could get the cougar vibe, but I don't think that is who she is at all. I think she was probably a beautiful young woman that got pregnant without a husband and ended up with a DS child which changed the course of her life. Or maybe she was married/in a relationship and he left. In any event, you can't judge her by her appearance.

I just want to say that I absolutely love this show. Came upon it by accident because it is right after Married at First Sight, one of the many trashy reality shows I like to watch. This is such a refreshing breath of fresh air. I love the relationships between the parents and children. They obviously love their children so much. I worked briefly for an agency that serviced DD individuals and one thing that really touched me was how much the parents loved their adult DD children. I love the girl with the red hair and the glasses. She is so sweet she brings tears to my eyes. I also love the Latino family. The daughter is beautiful. John I find pretty annoying but I like how supportive his family is. Regarding the one guy with Mosaic Down Syndrome -I had never heard of this type of DS. There is a guy that works at my local Best Buy that I suspect has it. I could never figure him out because he seems totally "normal" but he has somewhat DS features.

I think Neil and Sam were matched because they are both kind of weird, funny and quirky. The problem is that their weird quirky personalities kind of clash. And Sam is an asshole. Ashley is driving me crazy! She is so uptight! I get that she is not attracted to David. I would have a problem being forced to be with someone I wasn't attracted to also. I had plenty of dates like that when I was young and single. Guys that were perfectly nice looking and decent guys, but there was just no spark. But I would have never signed up to marry someone sight unseen! What was she thinking? She probably just assumed they would match her with someone tall dark and handsome and they would live happily ever after. I feel so bad for David. I can't believe he doesn't just bail. I really like Tres and Vanessa. I think they are adorable and I hope it works out for them.

This was mentioned last week and apparently she had a brain tumor as a young child or infant.

YES TO ALL THIS! As a just turned 50 year old (who looks 40) I can tell you I STILL have a smoking hot body! And I look great in sleeveless dresses. Honestly, I get it. When I was in my 20's I thought anyone over 30 was totally over the hill too, but it's just not true!

I felt bad for Lala not being invited to the party. It sucks to be left out. I remember years ago I worked with a bunch of girls. I was friendly enough with everyone but since I was married with kids I didn't hang out after work and they did, so I guess they were closer to each other. Whatever. I didn't think anything of it but then one of the girls got engaged and she had an engagement party and literally invited EVERYONE at work except for me. To make matters worse, the party was on a Saturday which was normally my day off (it was a retail environment) and she switched this one girl's schedule with mine (she was the supervisor) so that this girl could come to the party while I would have to work. Nobody even bothered to ask or even tell me and I didn't even know I was working that day or that the schedule was changed until the day before. Then while I am all alone at work that day I find out that everyone else is at the party. I was really hurt and never forgot that.
