I could see the 3 of them sharing the house while everyone was saving up for their own places. Malcolm should be making better money, but I can’t imagine he’d be in a position to buy his own place yet. They all get along, they’re in a nice neighborhood, Mom loves to spoil them yet she has her life and they have theirs. I think I’d like that arrangement as long as the writers don’t introduce a bunch of Too Close for Comfort agita.

Toni Collette’s portrayal is really turning me off, and normally I enjoy her performances. Everything she says is a sigh. I get it: Kathleen is overwhelmed, tired, stressed, and medicating. I have to skip through her death scenes. I’m afraid I’ll tear a retina rolling my eyes. I don’t remember hearing anything about Kathleen’s death or the trial and appeals, so I have novelty going for me. This episode: They didn’t show Sophie’s entire conversation, but I felt if she’d mentioned the coroner wanted to look at the head wounds as a possible owl attack rather than positioning it as a way to free her father, she might’ve gotten the daughter to go along with the exhumation. Also, I can’t figure out why the writers pointed out that one of the deer was missing if the deer were only a plot device to get her to invade the owl’s territory. I thought the antlers were going to be the murder weapon. (No way did he beat her with that fireplace tool and not cause a skull fracture.)

A few kicks in the teeth to Deborah’s ego. So many years spent in her Residency Bubble, she forgot she’s not the center of everyone’s universe and sometimes she doesn’t control the world. (And learned not everyone would want to be her.) She’s actually a lot of fun when she gets out from behind her narcissism. Their “Name that Celebrity” game was great, and I’d love to see some outtakes or hear some of the ones they didn’t include in the script.

I felt sad for them. It was a cute home, but I’d be embarrassed to tell people we were living there because the self-proclaimed Bridezilla spent all our money. eta: She has more headbands than I do shoes! Literally.

She began pole dancing as an escape from her very “stressful job.” I’ll allow that she has a lot of responsibility (if she practices on humans 😂, @Dehumidifier), but the way she presented it rolled right into her self-ingratiating manner. This was good for many laughs. 👍

Oh good god. 32 year old therapist from Chicago. I think she needs a better therapist of her own to work on the narcissism. She’s very impressed with herself. She’s so proud that she’s able to buy a home at her age (Hello? Her Mom just told us they were helping the daughter with the down payment.) Plus she compares her situation to her 90 year old Grandmothers! What do you mean women born in 1930 wouldn’t have been able to buy homes by themselves when they were 32?? She must be a truly remarkable person if she’s able to do in 2022 what women weren’t able to do in 1960. She’s been looking for a year+ and can’t even afford a 2 bedroom, 1.5 bath she likes even with financial help from Mommy and Daddy. Maybe she fell off her stripper pole a few times and hit her head.

If Bob is serious about Goodwin taking over the company keeping him on the floor is not doing anyone any good. He should be shadowing Bob and taking over responsibilities. Bob should take him to Asia to meet the manufacturers, yet no one but Bob seems to know about the succession plan. Meanwhile Goodwin should have a contract and a COO title. That whole story arc makes no sense to me. Is Goodwin going to be packing boxes one day and signing payroll the next?

I couldn’t remember if this was the adult actress or not.

I’m really enjoying S2 so far. I feel Deborah and Ava have both moved toward the center and aren’t so entrenched. Loved the cruise, but the actual Captain’s wife irritated. She’s not helping her wife’s career by reading a book during the entertainment. Put on a smile, play along, and pretend to enjoy the show. (Up to the point where Deborah went off the rails and started insulting the audience anyway.) Did I miss something with Alice other than throwing out the ashes? She accepted getting fired as if she were expecting it? I’m looking forward to the next episode. Deborah could use some fun and a distraction from being “Deborah Vance, an Entertainment Corporation.”

The Indianapolis episode had a different feel than most with the father dying suddenly and the newborn still in NICU after 2 months. I kinda felt they were still in shock or mourning. They didn’t seem to be enjoying themselves or wanting their 15 minutes. Were they hoping to get publicity for the restaurants or clothing line?

I don’t like this show anymore, and I’m not going to watch it.

Sorry, but Pastor Rob would’ve been trained (as all counselors) to recognize transference and not put himself or Mary in that position. Mary is hardly a virgin and needs to be honest with herself that her feelings aren’t pure (which I think she realizes but right now she has the moral authority that nothing happened), but it’s Pastor Rob’s professional responsibility to put an end to it.

I was well into my 30’s before I learned doors could be reversed. My places were all fine as they’d been laid out, but I was gobsmacked when I learned.

I think teasing the car wreck was a really lazy trailer to keep people watching the entire S4. It wasn’t even connected to the story, just a random event to make them realize what was important in their lives…like drug dealing, and money laundering, and turning their teens into killers.

Thanks for the Advertising 101 Primer. I watch to discuss what I like or don’t like about the houses and buyers not to get design ideas because the “must have” trends on HH are over by the time the episode airs. Island stoves were obviously a popular trend in Atlanta-area McMansions as all 3 had them. Her preference is not someone else’s mistake, and her opinion doesn’t mean everyone else is wrong. Her designs will be passé eventually, too, no matter how many rooms she guts or how much money she spends.

Unanimous on the Canadians. Do a new build if you’re going to gut high end kitchens and bathrooms. Those are expensive rooms, and you already paid for those finishes in the original price of the house. I missed the first few minutes — was he a professional skateboarder back in the day or a hobbyist? Having the same ramp would get boring fast. He builds it and then it sits empty after 6 months. I have no idea what the underground around a house looks like. How easy is it to put in a pool without running into some cables or tubes or whatever?

Oooh, I thought she said “I shouldn’t have to compromise” meaning her husband would have to give up his checklist for her, not her being displeased with the agent. I literally snorted when she said she WFH so the commute wasn’t important to her. Durrr. Above average sense of entitlement, but not in the top tier.

I didn’t realize the show was starting until last night, so I was completely unspoiled (and irritated) by the entire season-long, forced story about Rob being fired and the muppets trying to help him. It’s stupid. Are we supposed to believe the Muppets are real? The writers are mocking reality TV by introducing characters as fake as Holey Moley? Are they going meta — Fake characters acting out a fake story for a fake show? No thanks.

Well, obviously, but if we pull that thread every time someone has an observation there’s no use watching the show or playing along. For all we truly know the 2nd house could be valued at $350,000 if it were actually put up for sale and the producers only said $160,000 to make it seem like a good value.

“Dummy Rob” is this season’s Uranus? That joke won’t get old over the next 4 months. I paused it when they were showing one of the overhead shots and Port-a-Potty was there. In addition to the games they played tonight I could make out the pinball game where you have to jump from one flipper to another, Fishing Hole, and the Distractor. It looked like there were a couple more that are either new or I couldn’t see clearly enough. The Muppets will be here all season and a big part of some “story” that involves them helping Rob and there will be scripted discussions for the booth according to this interview. The muppets are even worse than the diving hole. At least that one wasn’t in every episode let alone every commercial break. There’s too much filler crap, and they basically skipped a match-up (“while you were away…”) The show doesn’t feel organic any more, and that was a big part of its appeal to me.

Sorry, but she literally said she was turning 16 when she was talking to Tina in the very beginning. A quincé is a 15th birthday party.

I thought the Pittsburgh couple blew the chance to get that 2nd house. None of the updates involved tearing down walls. The kitchen will be expensive and an inconvenience, but the rest are simple enough. Instead they took one of the generic flips with a longer commute. Another person who wants to paint real wood cabinets because they want a white kitchen. They’re going to hate that yard with its steep hill. I foresee them pricing out landscapers after the first summer.

She’s supposed to be turning 16? That’s a fully grown woman, y’all. I fell asleep in the middle of watching. Please tell me her father revealed her real age.

Wyatt’s attorney and Rachel are still alive? So they’d know Ruth was Wyatt’s heir and if Ruth didn’t have a will, then Three would be next of kin. His best option would be sell it the Byrdes (Rachel wouldn’t have the cash and installments would leave him dependent on the Byrdes, too) and gtfo. Leave the Ozarks and find a place no one knows him. Legal name change, the whole works. The highlight of the entire series was Helen’s headshot at the end of the S3, and the only time I laughed was when REO Speedwagon’s manager flat out said Marty wanted to launder some money after Marty pussy-footed a word salad about renting equipment. The only character I liked was Myra and then they messed that up, too. This is why I don’t usually watch shows like this in real time. I watch them when the series is complete because when I realize it’s an overrated crapfest I can skip to the Wiki page. This is a Wiki read.

GODDAMMIT. I hate the Byrdes, all of them, across the board. After Ruth killed Javi, Marty defended Ruth saying her entire life was destroyed simply because she’d met them. That summed up their universe of relationships.
