Just binge-watched this and now I feel all kinds of yucky. Deanna and Mark are vile people and I loved what LaShae said about them at the end - they should remember that they started out selling from the back of their trunk and if they did that, they would remember to show more respect for the people who got them where they are today. I also loved when LaShae explained her refusal to go on the cruises. She was the best! I loved all of the women who quit the business and had the courage to participate in this documentary. I can't help but think that if LuLaRoe was a legitimate business, they would coach their salespeople on financial literacy instead of all the mumbo jumbo cult-like motivation spiels. But if they did, it would lift the veil on their scam of a business. The two sons who were deposed were horrible people. All of their "I don't remembers/I can't recalls" during the questioning. It seemed like the whole family perjured themselves in the depositions. The VP of sales son looked coked up in the deposition and his talking heads. That is not a well man.

What the hell was Leah wearing around her neck? All I could think of was Amadeus. She is just TOO MUCH ALL THE TIME! Otherwise, I liked the second game so much better than the first. The panel really clicked with the contestants. I do hate when the panelists consult with each other on answers during the regular part of the game, though. I don't mind it during the winner's circle, but it doesn't seem fair during the main game. Maybe the reason they do it so much is that the questions suck so hard since the reboot. Really, how hard could it be for the writers to come up with funny questions which would have a couple of reasonable answers???

I think it was an actual commercial (for Honda) that happened to be shown during W&G. But it was definitely Nick V.!

The answer is: YES! See: Making your 20-something Jane pose in a bunch of baby pictures (with Baby!) LOL

and IMO, all the smoke, mirrors, makeup, hair bleach, teeth bleach, etc. could not disguise Sabrina's lantern-jawed, thin-lipped, phony eye-browed appearance. YIPES! And I was trying to find the similarity between Sabrina and her sister, but couldn't see it until she was in the courtroom. Then, I thought they could be twins. All that sinning sure does age a person. (By the way, after I post this message, I plan on praying so that God will forgive me for being so cruel in judging her appearance. I'm sure he'll forgive me.)

I was catching up on this season's episodes and it was bugging my why the actor playing Hugh looked so familiar. When I looked him up on IMDB, I was blown away to see that he is the same actor that played Muriel's handsome swimmer husband in Muriel's Wedding. Back then, he was so handsome that I would blush just looking at him. But time marches on for us all, I guess! I hated that Gerry hurt his tutor and had no remorse in doing so. Empathy for animals? Check. Empathy for people? No so much. Gerry's too old to get away with that. I too love Leslie's maturing arc this season. I'm worried about Sven getting in trouble because Leslie blabbed his secret to Huge. And, ugh, they had to go there with Larry and Vasilia. Boo!

Jaime Camil was in a telenovela called "Por Ella Soy Eva" a few years ago where he dressed up as a woman in order to reclaim his life. It was such a fun show! So, I was excited to see Jaime dressed exactly like his character and would have died if he would have said that her name was "Eva" instead of "Judy."

Monday morning quarterbacking here, but for the crops topic, it had farming in parentheses, which is weird. But if I had the presence of mind, I would have focused on that term because it seemed easier to describe... "tractor, plow, harvest, etc."

I completely disagree with the bashing of Vanessa's hometown date activity (except for the bikini pictures). I thought it was very sweet - the love between her and her students was palpable. And that was the only substantive date of the four. I guess I'm not seeing why Vanessa is seen by many in such a negative light. If anything, while I love Rachel, I felt like the church service was more manipulative.

Bullshit decision on the Bobby Flay competition. Horrible.

The high heel "protector" - just, no. Definitely not a "new category." "We know we can do $20, $30, $40, $50 million in sales." What are they smoking? The product is unsightly and completely changes the look of a shoe. Further, they didn't look like they provided a big enough surface to alleviate the "problem" they claimed to be addressing. Also sad that Kevin called them "girls."

You're right, backformore. Everyone has had painful life experiences. But this episode with the young son dying is a different level of grief (I cannot fathom), and more likely to influence the judges. It is like all the chefs that come on this show are trying to trump each other with their life stories. No matter what, it's manipulative. And it makes the contestants who come on and say, "I'm just here to push myself, have fun, and win money to redecorate my bathroom" seem shallow and petty. When they're not. They just choose not to use their negative stories on the show and let their cooking speak for itself.

Amanda also has a PhD-level knowledge of makeup application, especially false eyelashes.

Yesterday was a "Very Special Chopped Jr." episode. Frankly, it was HARD TO WATCH!

Wow - could Bachelorette Kaitlyn be any more of a shrew?
