Haute Messe

Anything she has going on in the looks department is cancelled out by her odious personality. I actually don't think she is attactive and won't age well. This discussion in the car is giving me a migraine. Ugh.....the way she talks. She has big plans! Llike working on like goals and like stuff. And it's like so fustrating! Keep living in your dream world, honey. And Syngin is no prize either. He seems to have some entitlement issues and unrealistic ideas as far as employment is concerned. I hope that this is the end of Mike and Natalie. I do give her some credit for giving back the ring and also for being one of the most realistic and honest people on this show who doesn't think she is feeling true love after 3 meetings. But she's still a nutter. I can't figure out if Sarah is really trying to help Juliana, or trying to stir up shit between Michael and her. It is a weird dynamic. She did look cute in her wedding dress though. I won't believe that Anna and Morsel are done until he actually boards the plane. Even if he does stay, I think that relationship will be doomed unless they learn to talk to each other without a translator app.

I don't see a thread for tonight's episode, and just lost everything in my post in the live chat thread as it locked before I hit the submit. Will try to remember what pearls of wisdom I can remember...sucks being in PST. Grangela and Mykul. Don't care - wish they would be gone. Mike and Nat. Does she have a mouthful of cotton? Michael and Juliana. Unless she was morbidly obese or gave birth, there is no way in hell she lost 22 lbs in 2 weeks. Now I don't know what to believe from her. It sure was generous of her betrothed to get her a bicycle <sarcasm> unless she is not licensed to drive in the US. Anna and Morsel. Still not buying any of this vomit coma inducing bullshit. Blake and Jasmine. These two have zero chemistry or communication. Still can't figure out why she isn't staying with her bff sister. Tania and Syngin. For chrissake you can cut an apple, you dumb cow. No words for the armpit smelling. She is just disgusting. Back later after part deux.

I can't remember a single poundticipant who doesn't say 'me and (insert name here)' over and over. Does their weight erase all the grammar they should have learned in elementary school? And I could be Paul's drinking buddy if I took a shot every time she said she was 'doing the best I can.' I was raised on Miracle Whip and switched to mayo as an adult and will never go back. Her response to the mayo on that giant sandwich was one of the funniest things about this episode. Agree this weight loss will not be successful for her unless she gets intensive therapy and then she only has a 50% chance, I would bet.

Mu Shu, that was hi-larious! Lol especially at making fun of a bald cat - that's not even woke. Your recaps might be incentive to keep watching this shit show. And by the way, you do not have fat arms!

In the top picture, I think he could pass for a member of the Trump family.

Agree to all of this. I wonder what would have happened if LeeAnne had called Kary a chirpy bitch, or a chirpy see you next Tuesday. I think her comments were racist, not PC and inappropriate but I just think that they can’t stand each other. She should definitely not have addressed her dislike for Kary in the manner she did, but in my opinion, I am not sure if that makes her a racist - and it might be clouded by the fact that I cannot stand Kary either and it has absolutely nothing to do with where she comes from. And by association I have come to dislike Deandra as well. No words for Brandi and that ridiculous chair stunt. And Andy was a complete dick.

His vows were lame - he wrote that before he even saw her. That line might have landed as funny if the timing were different - like when Austin said it – I laughed. I was worried about how successful the match between Taylor and Brandon would be from the beginning, and now even more so. I don’t think that they are intellectually compatible, and I wonder how much time he spends gaming. He mentioned having anxiety disorder and panic attacks, and I really empathize with him – they are extremely debilitating. Just depends how he manages it. As for his lack of enthusiasm when he saw his bride, maybe he was medicated. I am surprised by how much Katie and Derek seemed to click. I hope that they work out. And now I can’t not see Ethel Kennedy….. Also thought it was a bit strange that diabetes was mentioned at the ceremony. Derek being a foodie could be an issue, but Katie seems to have a good handle on how to manage her diet. Jessica and Austin do seem like a good match, both a bit dorky. It seemed like Austin was pounding the beers back at the reception, so hope there is no issue there, and it was just nerves. I think that although he was not her ideal in the looks department, his height earned him big points. Hair can always be changed, unless that’s the way his mommy likes it!

Thanks, I stand corrected.

And a lot of blown up lips.

Like, I am literally like worried for the like future of our planet with this bunch, Shiann and Victoria F being the worst offenders this week. Is English not taught in school anymore? Pretty girls, but they sound totally empty headed. Like figuratively. Hannah can just go away with her annoying speech and her annoying mannerisms. Just leave and don't come back. I was originally taken aback by the Weber's sign, but it is correct if it refers to their property. As in the Weber's house. I cannot believe that Victoria F is anything but a producer plant. Did I miss anything in the Peter and H conversation? I completely zoned out.

This, all day long. I just can't stand anything about Kari, and she IS chirpy, and it's nothing to do with her ethnicity. And as has been mentioned, LeeAnne needs to leave and get some intensive therapy. I am done with this bunch.

Pepper, one of the "experts" fought for this match saying they were so mature for their age. Not seeing this at ALL. And she was also gloating about her 10 season tenure on this show with eight successful couples. Hardly something to be proud of if anyone asks me, which they haven't. Fitness guy looks to me like a cross between Johnny Iuzinni and John Mellencamp. I like Taylor and Brandon the best so far, but not too sure if they will be intellectually compatible.

I am SO going to use that word! Tania and her band of “woke” braless wonders. She becomes more gross every week. I do question how he ever found her the least bit attractive in the first place. Whatever she had in the looks department is fading and sagging at the same time, and her personality is repulsive. Sequim Mike wandering around Kyiv drinking beers in his flannel jammies. He should just return to Mr Bojangles and forget about this drama queen. It will always be something with her. Juliana’s game is good. She’s a manipulative piece of work, and Michael is falling for her act. Now I can understand a bit why his ex is inserting herself in his affairs. I may be wrong, but I still think this whole thing with Anna and Mursel is fake, fake, fake. And I hate that there are kids involved. Robert is not the sharpest tool in the shed - He seems to take shortcuts in life that continually backfire on him. Not a lot of thinking going on up in that noggin of his. It’s just shocking how little these two know each other after spending a whole 8 HOURS together. That was so sweet how Mahkul was defending the honour of his woman. How dare his friends call her trashy?? He and Sumit must have gone to the same acting classes. And Grangela getting herself all tarted up for the call with him… Oy.. I hope this is last we see of these two.

The thing that bugs me most about Kary is that she cannot let anyone finish a sentence! She interrupts and talks over nearly everyone, and inserts herself in matters that don't concern her. I actually can't stand that in anybody, but she does it repeatedly. I don't condone a lot of LeeAnne's behaviour but think the problems between these two are exacerbated by the way they communicate - they just push each other's buttons. LeeAnne is absolutely exhausting and a loon but I kind of feel for her when they all gang up on her, even if they call it "having Kary's back". I am impressed with the way Kam has handled everything in the last few episodes - much more likeable than her ditzy pink Barbie persona. Loved that everyone at the party was dressed in blue. Stephanie looked gorgeous and her hair was so cute and flattering - miles better than that tragic wig in her THs. I have been so distracted by D'Andra's massive dangling earrings that bring attention to the fact that one ear is lower than the other - I have the same problem. Loved Mama Dee chowing down!

She's on day parole?

I don`t think Mursel has ever been away from his parents before and seems to not have any relationship experience. That bachelorette party was so over the top and way TMI. There must be something wrong with Anna if she thinks that this is all she deserves in a partner. I can’t figure out Robert at all. Maybe he’s a gaslighter in training? I am not an Anny fan, but I am firmly on her side in this apartment situation. Or the whole thing is fake, just like more and more we are seeing on this show. Whoo boy. Those were the strangest shots of Grangela and her daughter in the car on the way to go “huntin” for a wedding dress. Seatbelts off, then on, then off, then on. Somebody spent a lot of time splicing these scenes together, and who the hell knows what was actually said. Renee and her cohort were so very entertaining with the looks they were giving. Glad to see that she at least kept her pants on under the dress. No doubt a suggestion by the store. Sasha and Emily aka Hans and Franz. “We going to PUMP you up!” Sasha, you really lost 10 pounds of muscle in 10 days??? How would he know that? Hilarious how Mom and Sis pretty much ignored him at the airport. That whole cereal debacle was totally scripted, but was he flirting with her mom when they left to go to the gym? Juliana acts like a child and Michael treats her like a possession. He wants full control of her. I can’t imagine she has had a huge modelling career, or you’d think she would have had something to show for it. Wonder why Michael “kicked her out”. Natalie - I can kind of understand her thinking it is important to have the same religious views as your partner in terms of raising kids, but there are lots of interfaith marriages that work! She is very judgemental and apparently an emotional loony. Run, Michael.

Heh - I actually think Ashton is the best looking when he is not in his Smashton or Chippendale persona.

I agree with this. Kate really did show her ass, which was escalated by a little too much booze, but I can't imagine what it must be like to be cooped up with this bunch of fools and then have to hang out with them on their time off. I would have not only lounged around eating pizza solo, but would have had earplugs in listening to my fave playlist, and maybe a sleep mask so I couldn't see them either. The one I dislike the most is Rhylee - even more than asshole Kevin. Her voice makes my ears bleed. I am no prude, but she has the most vulgar toilet mouth and I think she would be better suited back on a fishing boat or at a logging camp. Tanner is disgusting and really don't know what Simone sees in him, but she does not seem to pick up on social cues. I also do not see what is the big fuss about Brian! So he has some good abs, and seems marginally more pleasant than the rest of the bros.......what am I missing?

Ha! I rewound to see if it was spelled correctly. It sounds to me that Anna may have had some previous disastrous relationship(s) for her kids to be so against her marriage to Murcel. I dont think that this is the first time these kids have had to go through this. But she is a complete idiot. How can she expect het kids to get to know him if they can't communicate? Or this whole goddamn thing is fake, hence the wedding rings we see on both of them. There is most definitely something fishy about Julianna's previous marriage. The timing doesn't add up for all that she has been up to in her 22 years. And the ex-wife offering to get ordained to marry them??? GMAB. I do not need to see Grangela or hear her cigarette enhanced braying any more. No amount of botox and yellow hair dye is going to make her look any younger. I did actually howl when the esthetician with the bleached hair, fake tan, and fake face said that it is not a good idea to overdo it. Poor Syringe. He has absolutely terrible taste in women. And that shed looked exactly the same as when they first showed it a month ago, so Miss Thing wasn't exaggerating when she said it wasn't quite finished yet. No shit. The light bulb in Emily's brain has finally turned on and I think she is realizing what a shitbag she has hooked herself AND an innocent super-sized baby to. This Blake and Jasmine story seems very weird too, but I am temporarily blinded by his ultra white chompers and have to look away when they are on.

Drives me nuts too. I think he is pretty confident (even over-confident), but is intimidated by Captain Lee. This. And intellectual intelligence doesn't necessarily mean they have a lot of common sense either. There are some very book-smart people in my family who have a hard time managing basic life or social situations. I think Kate is between a rock and a hard place with Simone. I just caught a few minutes of Ep 1 of this season where Simone said her 2 years of experience was mainly in housekeeping/laundry, and Courtney had no yacht experience but liked interacting with people. Simone was assigned second stew position based on her previous experience but her service skills proved to be terrible, even with Kate showing her the ropes. And Courtney stepped in and learned very quickly. When there is a time limit on these trips and tips are on the line, there is not a lot of time for on the job training, so Kate has had to put the stews where their skills are best suited - simple as that. And her melt down when she witnessed the guest taking a plate out to the table shows that she has no clue that Kate was just humouring a guest who was being a pain in the ass. Simone might have done better under Sandy's style of micro-managing and hovering over everyone, but she wouldn't have tolerated butchering citrus or standing around waiting for guests to ask for something either.

FTFY. That was the highlight of this shit show 😞

I guess the apple doesn't fall far from the tree - she is heading into Dr Deb territory. The only reason I am still watching this shit show is to be entertained by all of y'all's hilarious observations.

I believe Kevin is a New Zealander, and there are Burger Kings there, according to Mr Google. Oops, see this has already been covered.

Rhylee needs to follow the advice my mother gave me - it is better to remain silent and be thought a fool than to speak up and remove all doubt. She sounded like a complete idiot with the keto/paleo bullshit. They are NOT the same, and she seems to think that eating something in those categories compensates for binge drinking? Good God. I just can't tolerate people who don't know when to shut up and listen. Kevin is absolutely a piece of work himself, but she was obnoxious to him, and her mouthing off at Ashton was beyond the pale. And I think he was more than willing to look beyond past experience with her and made an effort to work with a clean slate- after Lee basically ordered him to get along with her. Kevin is such a weirdo and I agree with the assessment that he doesn't consider women as equals. He acts completely different with the "bros". I think we are about to see Kate implode. Those charter guests were the worst with the primary winning first prize. How could Captain Lee not have even thought about the possibility of infection in Brian's leg - did he not ever check on him?
