Kbo

Commercial break and I’m still steaming. To be that insensitive in front of your child who’s enduring horrific pain and facing a major surgery that has to be terrifying? Kody, you are a pathetic excuse for a father and a man.

This conversation about Ysabel’s surgery is making my blood boil. It’s not his pain, so sure he wants to put it off. Selfish piece of crap, I don’t think I’ve ever hated him more.

I can’t believe none of the wives asked what life goals the family is holding him back from. Seriously Kody, what mighty things would you be achieving if you weren’t so burdened 🙄

Wow, Kody saying he doesn’t care-I felt that one, can’t imagine being one of the first three wives. He’s just contemptible. They won’t listen to him so he’s going to take his toys and go home.

They’ve been in therapy forever and they still don’t know how to talk to each other 🤦🏻‍♀️

First live chat from the West Coast, I figured out the episode posts on TLC Go at 6 PT 🙂. They better bring it tonight or this will be the season that absolutely nothing happened.

I’m glad they didn’t forget to pack a fan, I know that’s on the top of my list whenever I go to a wedding 🙄. I’m shocked she’s letting them out of her sight. I would be very curious to see how they behave away from Jill. Do they keep up the facade, or go speeding down the road listening to heavy metal 🤟

Just realized they’re wearing the same top in different colors. Shillers gotta shill, I guess. Definitely not a fan of whatever Christine has on underneath. I want to lop off Mykelti’s braid that still has the remnants of all the bad dye jobs. I hope she keeps her natural hair color, it looks so much better.

I just watched this, and there’s no mention about “cookies”. I mentioned on another thread, unless I’m losing my mind they’ve edited out some things that were in the original episodes. Another example is the episode where Truely gets sick—the episode skips from a mention of Truely being a little sick to Christine getting home. I remember Aspyn telling Kody she needed to go to the doctor and Kody blowing her off, but that’s not in the episode anymore. Is my memory playing tricks on me, or do you guys remember it that way as well?

Excellent job, @the-grey-lady! Far better than the actual episode, AKA an hour of my life I’ll never get back.

What a pointless episode. Absolutely nothing new to see here. Do they really think we’re dying to see more road trips to visit people who’ve been on the show before? They need to start picking it up, this wasn’t even snark worthy, it was just BORING.

Interesting! I’ve been watching On Demand with Xfinity, and I was specifically waiting for those scenes so it was really obvious to me when they weren’t there. TLC has done this kind of thing before, though. When the Bates family had a show, there was an episode with a poor horse that looked noticeably underweight and unhealthy. After the initial showing, that scene was gone. ETA, I’m going to check those episodes out on the TLC Go app and see if they’re edited.

Totally agree - he’s gone from being the supposed spiritual head of the family to “hey, don’t stick around for any silly religious ideas”. Do any of the original wives actually believe in their religion anymore? And even if they do, do they honestly think Kody is going to pull them through the veil? I can’t wait to see what happens when this show goes off the air. Much like the Duggar’s, that’s when the real action is going to go down!

Which is definitely not a stretch for the resident caveman 🙄. I rewatched the Truely episode recently and they had cut out the part where Aspyn tells Kody how sick she is and Kody blows it off. I’ve noticed the editing monkeys at work on several episodes, actually. Remember the infamous episode where Robyn talks about her cookie? They took that out, and I was sorely disappointed.

I saw a commercial today where Kody was saying he doesn’t want to spend the rest of his life listening to four women telling him how unhappy they are. I hope there’s something to it, that would be some good TV (relatively speaking, of course).

I recently rewatched the episode with Mykelti’s wedding, and I will pay her NOT to sing. Her singingk could have driven Noriega from his compound. Speaking of that episode, it really was reality TV gold. My favorite part I didn’t remember was Kody and Christine agreeing the guests had a wonderful time, even though it was freezing outside, they ran out of food, and the venue was too small 🙄.

I don’t think that last part is a big mystery 😉

I’m so sorry, don’t push too hard. Hope it heals quickly!

I’m a little embarrassed how excited I am. I would never admit it in real life, but I can’t wait for this crap fest to begin! Bring on the fake tears, eye boogers, Kody being a Neanderthal, Janelle blinding everybody with her ghost white legs, I am here for it all! Let the whatever season this is of snarking begin!

Have some happy news to share, I got the job I interviewed for last week. It’s within a totally different division of my company, so it’s like starting a new job but I can keep my seniority. Even better, I can get away from my crappy boss and department. I’ve been unhappy at work so long, it’s hard to imagine liking a job. Heck, if I don’t hate it I’ll be satisfied. For everyone job hunting, I’ve got my fingers crossed for you!

I want to reach through the screen with a pair of scissors and chop off at least a foot of that mop.

A little late here, but with all the pet pictures I have to share one of the silliest things I’ve ever spent money on—and I love it! Ladies, I present my cat as Mr. Darcy:

I can’t imagine not being depressed in her situation. What a seriously miserable way to live.

I've been wondering the same thing, @laurakaye. Usually it launches in early January, so it's kind of disappointing not to have heard anything. I just did a search and there's nothing official yet. I hope it's soon, we definitely need some new things to snark about. I hope they feature the kids more in the new season--I've been re-watching old seasons and I enjoyed the show more when it wasn't just about Kody and the harem (and the endless debate about a house they have no desire or ability to actually build).

We got our stimulus money, too. Wasn’t expecting it this quickly, was a nice surprise for the day. And @Yeah No, totally agree about age discrimination in the workplace. I just turned 50, and I’m not going to stop coloring my hair any time soon. I want to pass for being in my forties as long as I can. Fortunately, I inherited good genes so I don’t have a lot of wrinkles yet. Really sad that we have to think this way 🙁
