  1. The timeline on this show is so annoying. Ethan goes to California, and Olivia goes to Florence, Italy to do some writing?? Was this a trip planned in advance, or did she decide to go to Italy when Ethan said he was going to California? 

    So Olivia thinks Ethan should be the one to say the marriage is over, not her. They both clearly have reached the conclusion that there is no path forward for them. Take the initiative, make the decision and tell him so you can both start moving on to whatever comes next. It seems disingenuous on her part to put the onus on Ethan when she's just as responsible for determining the fate of their relationship as he is.

    Somebody once posted a listing of her house, and it sounded nice to me. It was on the lake. She always said she wanted to live around the water in NC, and she was shown at the beach with her daughters over the summer. Kate loves having pity parties.

    If her house is on the lake, it’s not cheap. Due to its proximity to Charlotte, there are plenty of high-dollar homes belonging to players with the Panthers and the Hornets, NASCAR drivers, etc. We wanted a lake home too, but that area too expensive for us.

    She's been living in Troutman for at least a couple of years.  I remember posting a Daily Mail article about it a while back.  I haven't read Suzee's article*--is Kate still in the nursing profession?  

    *Nothing personal, Suzee--I just never click on blind links. ❤️

    No offense taken, Gemma, I get it. The article says she’s had a multistate nursing license since 2021 but it doesn’t say that she’s actually working as a nurse. If it’s true she’s living from paycheck to paycheck, she’s working somewhere. But given her former lifestyle, even a well-paid nursing job wouldn’t afford all the perks she had in the past.

    I read that Jon's ex-girlfriend posted on social media today that when she and Jon broke up, Jon and Hannah moved out, but Collin stayed and lived with her for quite a while.  This explains Colin's nice words about her on social media in his graduation post and also his tribute to her on Mother's Day.  She debunked what Kate said about Colin.

    eta:  Here is Colleen's post:

    I believe this is an honest, sincere account from someone who has actually lived with Collin the last few years and knows him for the person he is now. Whatever happened when he was a child, no doubt because of the way he was treated by his mother, he's obviously made great progress since then. If Colleen is the mother he never had, then I'm happy that he's found acceptance and love in her family as well as with Jon and Hannah. I hope their support will sustain him in this new chapter of his life so that he finds what makes him happy.

    I didn't understand the issue at the rafting.  Olivia and her brother went hours earlier than anyone else for what reason?  When the rest of the family arrived, Olivia and Nathan decided to stay down by the water rather than go up to the picnic area where the rest were preparing the picnic why?  Olivia said she didn't know they weren't going to be spending all their time on the water and therefore it was the family's responsibility to come down to the water to greet her instead?  Her logic is nonexistent.

    Quote

    Yeah, that was either very poorly contrived or no one in this group knows how to communicate. "Why aren't they inviting us to join them?" "Why aren't they joining us?" It was beyond frustrating

    Olivia and her brother made the choice to leave 2 hours earlier than Ethan and his siblings, not telling them she intended to do that. She even mentioned walking by Micah as he slept so she didn't want them to know she was leaving. Why be sneaky about it? I understand that she may have wanted to leave the picnic earlier than the others so traveling separately made sense, but I don't understand why she couldn't have traveled separately and left at the same time as Ethan et al. Then, whining that the family didn't ask her to join them when they arrived at the picnic site, as if she was incapable of simply walking up the trail to meet them herself. Her "poor me", whiny complaining made me want to throw something at the TV. Gah! Olivia was told repeatedly by Ethan, Micah and Moriah that they would understand if she didn't want to come so she made the choice to be there, no one forced her. I thought her behavior was very passive-aggressive in that situation.

    Am I the only one that wants Elsa to die?  I have grown increasingly tired of her the past two episodes.  For me, she has become the Jimmy of "1883".  I find her tiresome. 

    No, you're not, I'm so ready to get rid of her by whatever means possible. If death is the most expedient way, bring it on.

    Quote

    I believe she mentioned it was October.  October in Colorado/Wyoming is not warm... the guys were all in coats.  Yet here she is in a sleeveless Comanche vest that she proudly shows off without a coat to show everyone she is Comanche.  Margaret tells her to put on a dress and she's all "oh no y'all, ahm Native now, it restricts my boobies and ah can't breathe".  Pfffttttt.

    If death brings an end to her wearing the skimpy Commanche vest with nothing on underneath while everyone else with the wagon train is bundled in multiple layers, it can't happen soon enough. Although perhaps Sheridan derived a little schadenfreude from her complaining about her arm-pit restricting, boob-smashing dress, then soon after being shot through with an arrow. I certainly did.

  6. Elsa tells Shea she's staying, not going to Oregon, then "marries" the Commanche and ... leaves for Oregon, telling her new husband she'll be back in the spring, shouting her love for him as she departs (so much for her broken heart from the loss of the cowboy). How is she making the return trip -- alone?? It seems as if Taylor Sheridan envisions Elsa as a WonderWoman of the Plains -- outriding Commanche warriors, galloping off to battle cattle rustlers, killing a buffalo with a first shot the first time she's ever hunted them, and then rides off at the end wearing the vest her husband gave her with nothing underneath because, you know, she's a warrior now. 

    We started watching this show with hopes for a realistic portrayal but now we watch it to laugh at the unrealistic content, inconsistencies and poor continuity -- in this episode Elsa wears a coat to the Commanche camp, leaves without wearing it, the next scene she's wearing the coat again.

    There is just no couple left to root for.  I think I’ll stick to watching Pillow Talk to get the gist without having to watch the actual show. 

    After this episode, I'm right there with you. I know this season has been fakery for most of the stories, but the final straw for me was the scene with Vanessa and Colt, where he's telling her he's off to pick up Jess, and he barely contains laughter while Vanessa can't even hide her laughter as she turns away. Even the bad actors are laughing at the ridiculous story line they're supposed to deliver.

    Eric-ee is hilarious.  Because he's gay and trying to portray what he thinks a straight man acts like, he probably took some acting lessons (in Las Vegas!).  Now he gestures-gestures-gestures...usually both hands match.  How long will we have to watch his pathetic attempts?

    Right? I was dying. It reminded me of Robin Williams in "The Birdcage". "How about those Dolphins?"

     

    😄 I had the same thought, Nathan Lane's character in "The Birdcage" being coached by Robin Williams how to use his hands in a manly way: don't raise the pinky finger when holding the tea cup, and "You don't butter the toast, you SCHMEAR it."

    I guess I am the only one who thought she was kissing him on the corner of his mouth/cheek. I have three sons 36, 34, 24 and a daughter, 32, and I would kiss them for an hour - all over their faces and necks, if I hadn't seen them for half a year. Mind you, I'd like to see Momma kiss Aseulu the same way after he said no to giving any money. She kissed him like that because she thought she had finally won the $1000 per month Kalani lottery.

    You're not the only one who thought Mama Asuelo kissed him on the  cheek, it looked that way to me too. And like you, I also believe the lavish affection toward her son and grandchildren was driven more by the anticipated $$$. Later on, when Mama is talking to the camera about how her son used to be so good about bringing money until he got married, it seemed to me this woman was used to manipulating her simple-minded son into giving her whatever she demanded of him and now she's pissed because she's lost that control. I actually felt sorry for Asuelo as he realizes that Kalani was right about his family only wanting to see him when they want money. Based on the previews, it appears Mama isn't done badgering him for money, to the point where he breaks down. Mama Asuelo is despicable.

    And when he finds you he is going to walk up in a leather trench coat, hug you and go Mmmmmmmmm!

    I had the TV on in the background while I was working from home today, don't even know what the program was but there was a commercial that played several times for HoneyNut Cheerios with a part that said "Mmmmmmmm." I finally had to change programs, every time I heard it made my skin crawl thinking of David and his trench coat, groping and making that sound. 🤮 I'm afraid HoneyNut Cheerios has been ruined for me.

    Mentioning coffee - did you (like I) do a "spit-take" when he appeared on screen in that ridiculous hat?  It looked like something he found in a trash can because no self-respecting homeless person would wear it.

    When I was growing up, my dad had a hat like that. He liked wearing it when he went ice fishing. He called it his Boris hat. 😄

    David gives me the major willies. Major. Every time he goes in to hug Lana it makes me shiver. Those moans are disgusting and creepy. He has no clue that this woman wants nothing to do with him. 

    I thought Ed was the worst, a 50+ year old man pursuing a 23 year old woman when he has a 29 year old daughter. But listening to Dave moan as he was groping Lana was so cringe-worthy I had to mute it. I also thought the last-minute proposal before he departed was so controlling, a way to force a "yes" answer because who could say no after such an emotional farewell? 😏So then he grabs her and declares "She's mine, she's finally mine," and his perceived ownership is now complete. There was no downside to her accepting, it was the fastest way to get rid of him rather than create a scene if she'd declined. At that point she had a new phone and thought she had a big diamond for all her suffering, but by now she's no doubt had that CZ appraised and tossed it. Game over, David.

    I had it on last night and my husband came in the room... he said is that Jabba the Hut? 

    I was thinking the same thing! She's Jabba's twin!

    I too thought the fake heart attack was the funniest thing I've seen on this show, but Joyce/Jabba's personality is just as repulsive as her physical appearance. Free Dawn!

  14. Watching the marathon today, the earlier seasons were so funny. Maybe my all-time favorite episode was Nanny renting the Corvette for Chase, and then driving off to Palm Springs (whether fictional or not). So much funny in that episode: Nanny telling Chase that people will think she's driving around with a gigolo, Chase all grossed out. The episode where Todd makes Savannah go on her first date with an older boy with Nanny, and Nanny ends up at the bar chatting up a guy who looks about her age. Yes, there is so much contrived, but I still enjoyed it. Agree that the wrestling and juice bar episodes were mostly lame, with a few highlights.

  15. The producers may regret the decision to film in Raleigh, now that they've been sued by Deena and Sully as they are referred to on episode 152. Lots of dirt about what really happens behind the scenes.

     

    http://www.miamiherald.com/news/nation-world/national/article72350402.html

     

    The couple allege that “Love It Or List It” did not use a licensed architect to develop renovation plans, that they never were shown houses on the market by any North Carolina licensed real estate agent who had the ability to broker the sale of those homes and were left to put up with “disastrous work done by Big Coat and its subcontractors.”

  16. This was the worst Downton episode ever. It destroyed the whole show for me. Mary was awful and - I think - out of character. Yes, she has been snide and bitchy towards Edith, but this was a whole different dimension and we have never before see her act that way.

     

    I hated how everyone bullied Mary about Henry. I hated Henry and this horrible "no means yes" storyline. It was sexist and disgusting. 

     

    I even hated Tom. The only good scene was, when he yelled at Mary. She deserved it, but his whole behavior before was awful.

     

    And then even the Dowager became completely out of character! In Episode 4 she said about Henry "Mary needs more than a handsome face with a hand on a gearstick" and then all the sudden she has changed her mind and Henry is the one? Where did we ever see any of this?

     

    The stupidest thing: All family members told us over and over how "strong" Henry is and that Mary "can't control" him and then she whistles and he comes and brings a marriage licence. AWFUL!!

     

    Edith was an idiot, too. She should have told Bertie of course, but she's a coward as usual. 

     

    So it all ends in misery. I can't see Mary being happy with Talbot, I clearly see a divorce. Tom has no life anyway, he's a character from the very first season and he gets nothing in the end. It is endlessly depressing. 

    THIS!! I can't say I'm surprised JF bungled this episode so badly, given the way the season has progressed with pointless plot lines (hospital feud, Baxter and the cops, Denker/Buddy Hackett, sad-sack Thomas), but I'd hoped for something better. The shallow plot lines were cringe-worthy -- e.g.,  Mary's meltdown over the risk of losing Henry to a car crash, that she couldn't live through that kind of loss again, and then suddenly it's okay, let's get married NOW! Oy. My expectations for this series have continued to fall since S4, so they're at rock bottom for the Christmas episode.

  17. Lamar apparently had a court date next week scheduled in NY over the fight with his ex over the kids and child support. The battle he's been fighting with her for 6 years.

     

    I'm not familiar with CA laws, but if Lamar doesn't survive, I wonder if his ex-girlfriend could pursue his "marital assets"  (including part of Khloe's income) for his children since he's technically still married.
