All of the original episodes air at midnight on Hulu. For other shows, like SVU and THE CONNERS, the new episodes air at 5am the day after they air on TV. It's not illegal here for them to watch you urinate, but there are certain rules they have to follow. The test has to be administered by a same sex officer and they can't be in the stall with you, hence the mirror.

The whole time she was getting ready to see Eric my daughter and I were screaming at her. You'd think people wouldn't be that stupid, and yet Mary Kay Letourneau is Exhibit A. That's exactly what got her 7 years in prison-meeting her 15yo "boyfriend" a week after she was released on probation. She also pulled that same "he was the aggressor" act. (For something truly disturbing check out the interview of her and Vili where she sits there and repeatedly demands "Who was the boss?" to him.)

So the person who complains about how overweight people are treated and portrayed does a video that literally shows her smearing food all over herself? She's nothing if not hypocritical.

And yet teen birthrates have never been lower than they are now.

I felt like this one was too short. I wasn't nearly as interested as the Eric update episode of last week.

If Rebecca would quit referring to their age difference then I'd forget there is one. Unlike some of the other cougar/sugar daddy relationships, they seem to be fairly well matched. He looks a little older, she looks a little younger (even without FaceTune) and standing next to each other they pretty much even each other out.

The one thing that I don't believe in this relationship is that it's a fraud. As messed up as the relationship may be (it's hard to tell what's real), I believe they genuinely care about each other and this isn't for a green card.

Chase can barely keep a straight face in the previews.

Re: Becky and Zied Don't know if this is a spoiler since it's published information on most visa sites, and I have no idea what their current situation is, but This is something that they both should've known if they'd read anything about the visa, so I have to assume this is fake TLC drama. Also, I think Rebecca is trolling us with the blanket and everything. She visits these boards and even replies on Reddit. She knows what gets people talking. Ultimately, I think this is just a regular, boring couple like Andrei and Libby and they're trying to drum up drama and interest via exaggeration.

I don't understand why he can't at least move a doublewide onto the farm. Pest Control workers earn one of the best incomes where I live. Our Terminix guy earns around $55,000 a year. That may not sound like a lot, but average income here is about $22,000. Brandon's family presumably own their land and that's one of the biggest costs in building.

Yep, and the good thing is that, unlike cable, you can take breaks from the app. There are no contracts. I generally "pause" at least one of my subscriptions each month. I like Philo. I only ever watched around 5 channels on cable and I can now access them through other apps, some free. So far none of these are jumping out at me as particularly likeable. In fact, NotBon Jovi gives me a visceral reaction every time I see him. I know that I'm out on this ledge alone, but I actually like Fatal Natalie. She's crazy and jealous, but aside from her clenched jaw delivery I enjoy watching her. And I don't blame her for Uncle Bow. He's a hoot and a half to watch on my TV screen, but I wouldn't want to live on a farm with him. Whatever's going on in their fucked up, codependent relationship they do seem to love each other. I don't think either one of them is taking advantage of the other. That alone sets them apart from half the crowd.

Yeah, I'm not buying Rodney's innocence. On the other hand, IF I'm wrong and she was having an affair and told her 18yo co-worker then fuck her for not telling anyone because she "didn't want to get involved." At 18 I knew right from wrong and no way would I have sat on evidence that could've saved someone from prison. (That's another reason I think she's lying. I think she wanted attention.)

I downloaded it and intend to show it to my husband every time he's in the mood and I'm not.

The original Amazon registry said that the baby was due in August. The date was changed a few days after Whitney made the announcement, but screenshots still exist. In the beginning Whitney also said that the baby was conceived during quarantine, which everyone knew couldn't be true. I don't think she was born at 37 weeks, I think that's Chase trying to go along with Whitney's narrative. For whatever reason they were trying to pretend that he impregnated SJ later than he did. Why Whitney finally admitted that it happened in December is beyond me. At the time of the baby's birth, Chase may not have realized that Whitney had given the correct date range in her talking head.

Hard to say. I work for a fairly large animal rescue organization in our state (we run a kitten rescue on our farm, but also foster dogs). On the one hand I don't know of any puppy mills that sell full-grown dogs. On the other hand, if she'd gotten it from an animal shelter or a humane society then I don't know why she wouldn't publicly name them. However, Whitney can be polarizing so perhaps she adopted her from a rescue organization that asked NOT to be named (that does happen). Not all animal shelters have an application process. You can still walk into some, pay a fee, and walk out with a dog on the same day. IMO she either did this or she paid a rehoming fee to a private individual who no longer wanted the dog. I was upset that she apparently changed her name. This is an adult dog who presumably had a name to start with. We never change names unless we honestly don't know it. The poor animal's already confused and disoriented. If she'd gone through our org we would've recommended a low-energy breed. COVID's already restricting our movements to some extent, but Whit's not active to begin with.

Watched this episode again. I've now decided that Bab's quick exit after the "news" is because that's when she learned just how fake this relationship really was, and she didn't want a part of it.

Even before he locked down his FB page he never posted anything about her.

Honestly, this would work out better for me. Although I'm against these new apps on principle, since cutting the cable cord I currently pay Philo $30 a month and I really only watch TLC and Discovery channel shows on it.

It didn't strike me as odd at all. HerWhy the fuck would she hang around there? Her mother was dead, her father a distant asshole, and her aunt thought she was a killer. Lots of us backpacked after highschool-she just apparently found a way to support her wanderlust. I couldn't wait to backpack Europe when I turned 18. I did it several times and then wound up moving there and attending grad school. South American and European hostels are full of young Americans. Ali leaving the country after graduation isn't that much different than a child moving to another state for college.

Yeah, those pill bottles looked like the quantity that a PCP or specialist would've prescribed, not an ER doc. The instructions about physical and emotional exertions sound like something they'd give her after a cardiac event, not a panic attack. They're the same ones I got after my heart attack. I don't think Whitney had one, but she could very well have high blood pressure or a vascular issue and was told to limit physical activity until the medicine kicked into gear. And that's something she most likely wouldn't share with us because she'd be too concerned about people bringing up her weight.

You'd think, but Whitney has a huge fanbase that's constantly telling her that everything she does on camera is fabulous. People who are constantly stroking her ego and telling her that she's beautiful, sexy, and "too good" for whatever man they have playing "Whitney's boyfriend" that season. I think a big part of her believes it.

I went to the ER for a panic attack during a pandemic, and I also have a history of them. It only sounds crazy because it's Whitney. COVID sent me into a heart attack in late June. My only symptoms were feeling jittery and slightly dizzy. It felt VERY similar to panic attacks I've had in the past so I took a warm bath, drank some kratom, and tried to nap. My husband only called the hospital when, hours later, I lost consciousness. My BP was 105/85, my pulse 105. Conversely, a month later I was suddenly struck by a crushing pain in my chest that spread up into my jaw, dizziness, nausea, and a racing heart. I'd never felt anything like it. When the ambulance came my BP (which generally runs low) was 300/115. My pulse was 189. THAT ended up being a panic attack. During my time in the ER, as well as during my hospitalization with the heart attack, the staff repeatedly said the same thing: they were concerned that those with medical emergencies wouldn't come in because they were afraid of the pandemic. This sounds crazy because it's Whitney. If these were truly symptoms she'd never had before, and they were concerning to her, then she should have received help. Continually elevated BP and heart rate can lead to other things. Her filming on her phone/selfies doesn't necessarily mean anything either. I self recorded a good bit of mine. People in my county refused to believe COVID was dangerous, I was trying to show them how bad it could get. It's not like anyone else could have filmed for me-I had to enter the ER, and later the hospital, alone. Visitors not allowed. Our hospitals have repeatedly spoken out and encouraging people going to the ER if they think something scary is wrong. They've seen an uptick in strokes, heart attacks, and mental health issues (like suicide attempts). Some of these can be related to anxiety. If I were Chase's girlfriend then I'd be pissed to hear Whitney telling the world that I hid the pregnancy for months, whether it was true or not. Also, this episode proved that Whitney lied. When she first announced Chase's baby, she said that he and the ex had hooked up during the pandemic. We knew that wasn't right, though, because quarantine didn't start until late March/early April. She finally admitted that it happened over Christmas. Which leads us to... Who the heck are the "friends" she went to Paris and Switzerland with? I saw the pictures and didn't recognize them. Where were they during the birthday drive by? I do think that the barnacles are only for filming purposes. I believe her crying and upset are real. I think they're mostly about embarassment, though. And maybe a big part of her DID think Chase was falling for her. Whitney's whole life seems to be built around this fake image. Seeing all that falling down may have truly been unnerving. Naturally, of course, I want to see more of it... I'm loving Babs getting the heck out of dodge after the ER visit. She'd literally rather risk COVID than to tend to Whitney. I get that. All the talking heads seem to have been filmed after they finished filming for this season.

The year is meant to be 2013. But, yes, some of the music is much older. They've played a few things that were popular when I was in high school in the 90's.

I wish we had some spoilers about him.

At first I wondered if the parents were homophobic. He blushed at the non-joke about him being gay, and later they admitted that they were "so worried about him" that they signed him up for a dating site.
