Are we supposed to believe that Harris reads now?

I've always thought that the hospital just letting them take Randall was unrealistic. I could be wrong, and It was a long time ago, but to take a couple that had multiples and also lost one and just hand them an abandoned baby ? No screening, interviews, check out what mental state Rebecca might be in, do a home visit, also consider the fact that someone might have come back for Randall and they would have to give him up? That adoption wasn't final for a couple of years if I recall correctly, what would it have been like to also lose Randall? None of that, just hey, Jack heard about this other kid and is on board. This other kid just has lemons now, Jack is the man to make it lemonade for both of them. They already got three of everything. Also, for people who love to go down memory lane and hang on to the smallest thing, I have always felt it was weird that they just closed the door on Kyle right away. Everybody grieves differently but it doesn't ring true for that family at all. We literally got whole episodes about people that the characters didn't even know and not one about Kyle and the aftermath of his loss?

Her hair being a mess and the jacket thing over a halloween bride costume and how she's just so teeny tiny, and how she's a raging asshole is all just part of her sparkle. It's what brings all the boys to the yard and makes them overlook her more attractive and more pleasant sister.

Agreed, also I feel like people on this show find it inspirational in life changing way and regard it as if they never heard it before. Haven't these people ever been to a yard sale or something where you see it for 25 cents on a cross stitch made by someones memaw?

I want them to wrap up the last episode Fast Times at Ridgemont High style where we get a biography for all of them so we can see how ridiculous they all are. Of course, it's TIU, so half of that time will just be stories that go years and years into the lunch lady at the big 3's elementary school, the Ophthalmologist who gave Randall his first pair of glasses, the guy who worked at the local pet shop, even though they didn't actually even go there for a pet or anything...

I don't know why they never give Becky anything. It's pretty crazy that nasty sour Darlene landed a husband, dated other guys, literally had someone write a letter from their deathbed for her, on top of Hawaii tickets, gotten a huge promotion, and Becky is crying about whether anyone even wants to live with her. The one boyfriend she's had this whole time was some random old man professor who turned out to be a sad sack. I also think it's time to retire the 'darlene is so tiny and childlike' jokes. Plenty of old shriveled old looking ladies are small lol.

I think it's sad that they didn't factor in Kyle. Agreed that they should have made Jack and Kyle meet her together. One thing I don't like about the storyline is that they make Kate be the one Rebecca is closest to and trusts the most when Kate was a nasty bitch to Rebecca up until she got sick basically. In fact that whole family fangirls Kate and I don't get it at all. I'm also in the they did Miguel dirty camp. I think it was supposed to be that she just truly didn't remember the marriage anymore but poor Miguel. He wasn't number one to anyone in his life and that's really sad. I honestly think he was at least as good of a husband as Jack was, better even. It takes a very big man to care for someone sick like that day in and day out, most people couldn't do it.

It simply must expand to help kids learn to sing good on the planet mars.

Nah, he looks like he stinks, shops at the family dollar young men's section, and wears jewelry from a farmer's market store that also sells crystals and incense.

Yeah it really is lazy writing. Why not make that relationship have some legitimate issues, it wouldn't be hard to come up with some considering all the baggage he has. Even his dad knows he's a loser. Instead they just make him super, super dumb in a really unrealistic way. He's written as a person who isn't smart enough to know better and they act like Harris is out of his league. I don't think Harris is stupid or even has been written to be unrealistic, more like she has a personality disorder, anger issues and daddy issues. Nobody except some other messed up and co dependent person would want her. Aldo is only the bigger screw up because he's so much older and has had more time to do dumb things.

I don't get what you mean? I'm saying that Harris and Aldo are on the same level, unlikeable people that have not been shown to have any decent qualities so far. Also I don't consider Harris a normal level of screwed up, she literally shoved her mother across the room and seems like she has major anger issues alongside of her terrible personality. Darlene should have also gotten Harris some help when she went to talk to someone about her anxiety that time.

I think it's Darlene who will be pregnant considering that line about how her stomach is bothering her.

It's kind of funny that the conners think Harris is too good for Aldo. They're both losers, one is a miserable bitch and the other one is dumb as rocks is the only difference. Harris herself told Darlene to have fun worrying if she was pregnant when she went off the pill earlier in the season. Yeah, Aldo is older and should know better but I feel like they're on the same level. I guess we're supposed to see Harris as a diamond in the rough for no real reason just like the Darlene character.

Darlene is your typical bad parent who has the mindset that she’s doing the best she can. Harris has needed to see a psychologist since episode one and all she’s done for mark is this stupid play the contrabassoon to go to college for free idea. I get that it’s supposed to be this big clever way in on this show but come on. i also thought it was stupid that they had the idea to compare Becky’s life as someone who got married early with Louise who got married later in life to try and steer Harris in the right direction. Louise is pretty much in the same position as Becky except her husband is a doormat with a bunch of grown kids taking over the house. You could argue that Becky has it better than Louise at this point because she could take her one kid and move on whereas Louise’s husband will be having those kids and grandkids sucking the life out of him till the end. They want us to think Dan is some prize when most women would run away from that lifestyle like their hair was on fire.

The contrabassoon thing is so hilarious to me. Considering how many people are out there with useless degrees drowning in student loan debt, they really want us to believe that here's the magic answer to getting a free ride through college. lol. I can't. It's also pretty ridiculous that Darlene won Ben back not by being a less miserable, less rude, less annoying version of herself, but by amping it up to max level and falling through a roof in the process. What a waste of a reboot this show is.
