  1. I suspect, especially for Meri, the issue is they want someone else for her to film with to "process" or progress her storyline with or even just do other filming with. If she can't with her child, and she's really not in active relationship with anyone else in the Brown family (beyond the brief stuff with K/R), plus with her mom gone, they would only have her alone in talking head scenes really or alone going about some activity and fully narrating to herself.
  2. Aside from not having more children being hard on its own, in the Brown family, it also would have meant Meri "needed" Kody less practically speaking in his eyes. She only had one child and could really manage everything, whereas the others just kept having new babies who needed more initial attention, plus (once onto kid #3 each) had multiple other kids pulling them in different directions so I'm sure they were seen as more "outnumbered" and just need hands on help more often. I'd think from just that sort of practical level that Meri likely had less time with Kody from pretty early on, which I'd imagine also didn't help make plural marriage any easier for her. She didn't get the same "share" of Kody (not that I really think he was likely much help, but I think he was more present as new babies came and she just never had that again)
  3. I loved Matt and Maggie and was even more sad to hear Rachel Khoo was coming on. Unfortunately, based on holding out hope she'd get better during her stint as a judge on Great British Menu one season and being sorely disappointed (and then thrilled she didn't return the following season) I wouldn't hold your breath :(
  4. The figures above "Brown" look a lot like some are the Willow Tree figures. Lots of like "sisters at heart" and "the love of a mother and daughter" type options in that line (and available easily at Hallmark/Hobby Lobby type stores)
  5. Definitely largely to Socal - San Diego, Orange County (Disney being the largest draw by far), and Los Angeles (and Universal's Fright Fest thing). And CA still implementing more restrictions than AZ has (basically none) doesn't seem to be deterring many from going, which kind of surprises me. And yes, while there is tons to do in California, and throughout Southern California, the percentage of Arizonans that hit up Disney over fall break is absolutely crazy! With it having been closed over last fall break, I imagine it'll be even more packed. I'm a former Californian (turned Arizona) and a huge (huge) Disney fan and let me tell you, I'd rather go at Christmas time with those crowds than during fall break. Over all the years I had an annual pass, I only made the going during fall break mistake once. It is seriously nuts (and not staffed to the extent it is during Christmas, etc...though Disney has gotten better about it, but...still) I'd not be shocked if we see Christine there among the others.
  6. Virtually all of AZ has fall break either the week that just ended today or else next week. The vast majority of districts I know are off this upcoming week, since for those districts they just sort of absorb Monday's holiday into the break so it's one less true day of school off that week. So I imagine they're going to CA over her fall break (like many, many, many other Arizonans do) and just left a bit early. All of my stepdaughters closest friends also headed to CA either yesterday or today. I think some try to beat the rush by getting there a day ahead - which obviously doesn't work since some were off this current week, but...
  7. I've not seen an update on that. I'm not even seeing updates on any of the accounts of those making it, which is odd. But it's definitely ending up interesting who was chosen to be covered (especially since Morgan has also been in the All Around series). And while I'd have thought when a project was rumored that they'd have included someone like Jordan Chiles over Konnor, the other four all are ones that are willing to be pretty open in/out of the gym and also tend to show a lot of their own footage on SM, so that seems like it could have also factored into the choices. I won't add big spoilers in case that's not really allowed, but will put some tidbits sans names in the spoiler box about some current things since Championships night 2 is tomorrow: All 5 are certainly great girls and full of potential, and Deanna Hong (she creates stellar content for UCLA gymnastics) is a great one to have doing some of the work on it for sure. But the above (in spoilers) is very similar to what happened with a similar thing produced before Rio, but that followed individuals in different sports (female acro, I believe Steele Johnson a male diver, a female trying to go for judo or something like that, and a young male swimmer are the four I recall) It seems like it would have been really smart to start airing some sort of promos for this during Nationals this weekend. If there's still silence about it at Trials in two weeks it may have gotten scrapped for some reason, which would be a shame!
  8. Considering how highly they think of themselves and that they are likely reading here, you've probably just given Dimitri an idea for his next line of work!
  9. Seconding what @candall suggested as far as the book The Gift of Fear. It still sometimes pops up in Dollar Tree book sections also. I feel like it should almost be required reading!

    Mykelti

    Wow has Mykelti been a chameleon this pregnancy. She's looked like multiple different family members (Christine) and siblings (Gwyn, Aspyn, etc.) in various photos. And now in this one I see a lot of Mariah. And Christine sure looks over the moon in many of the pictures when she's holding the baby. Maybe having a grandbaby on top of Kody being a jerk will get her to leave him. (Not that I want her remaining kids at home uprooted again, but I think they'd all do better away from toxic Kody at this point)

    Mykelti

    I agree! Which is interesting b/c last week, the pic on the 7th here, I thought she looked a lot like Gwyn. I mean, obviously they are sisters, but I don't recall ever thinking they looked much alike, or at least not recently. Now a week later she looks a lot like her mom in the newest pic!
  12. Williamsburg had a bunch of influencers and their families there around the same time as it appears the Busby family was there. It definitely seemed to be a targeted campaign, largely at a few who had families, probably trying to draw more visitors since tourism all over (obviously) is really hurting. I have seen things in the state where I live talking about how much money the city is going to pour into similar campaigns to try to get more local-ish tourism here, so I suspect there will be a lot more (from the Busby family and others) because they want families to see it as relatable with their own kids, and learning opportunities, etc. I believe.
  13. In the tea post she has a space between the word and a comma more than once, and has a space after a word before a smiley emoji, but then no space after the smiley before the next sentence. Her lack of any thought before she actually writers and lack of even a quick reread of her things before she posts is evident. All. The. Time. I'm not sure why she thinks anyone will take her seriously when both her content and delivery are so clearly lacking any effort or true thought!
  14. New today: Also: https://www.usatoday.com/story/news/2020/09/17/jerry-harris-cheer-charged-production-child-pornography/3482276001/
  15. Her mom (who, I read elsewhere, is a big Angela fan and thus probably the reason for this get together thing) seems to have mastered the art of the 'crossover' appearances as well. Besides for the shows mentioned above (and the Abbey Lee's Ultimate Dance Competition thing that preceded Dance Moms) and other competition type show features (like Masked Singer, as well) and of course all her independent stuff since, Jojo (usually plus mom, at least briefly) has been on episodes of Outdaughtered, Keeping up with the Kardashians, and at least one other thing relatively recently that's slipped my mind. In both Outdaughtered and KUWTK it stemmed off the kids supposedly being big fans of Jojo's (possibly legit, I know she is big with a huge chunk of the little kid market) and then Jojo ending up interacting with the various kids pretty heavily, etc. I'd not be totally shocked if we end up seeing Jojo on 90DF given both the post above and Jessalyn's apparently fandom of Angela. But I suspect if it happens, it'll be under the guise of Jojo meeting Angela's grandkids to cheer them up after the loss of Angela's mom / their great grandma (although I think that'll all be "cover" to make it seem more organic than it ever would be)
