If only Kim hasn’t shut down Lydia’s wishes to text those two guys she was interested in getting to know, instead of clamping down on her and dooming her to be the family caretaker/“old maid. It seemed clear Kim was waiting until SHE decided a guy was suitable (don’t hold your breath) and then Lydia would be allowed to text him two or three times and then get married. What about the amazing concept of getting to know a few different people before you make any big life decisions?? and how I wish we could hear from Hosanna on her take about all this mess. Exactly why did she choose to opt out of the show?

Anna showing off her breasts to Brittany, who looked trapped and said yeah, nice, breasts, congratulations. 😆😆

It has always seemed to me that any time any of the wives appear to be getting close or having fun, he pouts.

Kody has said numerous times that people have told him Christine wanted to leave. Did it ever occur to him to TALK TO HER about it??

In any case, he’s definitely not spreading himself thinly among 18. Please.

Agree. Look how he started treating Meri like shit when she tried to flee. As with Christine, he didn’t acknowledge how anything he did might have caused them to want out.

I forget if it was in an episode, or if I saw this someplace else, but she did basically say that Mykelti and Tony helped her see that marriage doesn’t have to be a battle.

I haven’t watched for quite awhile but I did catch a preview last night. Her face looks wonky to me, like she had work done and ended up asymmetrical. She was a very pretty young woman at one time; I wish she could have accepted her face the way she (allegedly) accepts her body.

I’m an Internet-ordained minister so I consider myself just as credentialed as Kody. I’ve performed weddings. And I can assure him he can easily Google wedding vows and readings, which take very little brainpower to personalize. I really, really wanted Gabe to be right about how to level the trailer.

I doubt it would be an issue. I think that law is to allow people to have recourse in case there’s an RV parked endlessly on a public street, etc. I’m quite sure you can have your own RV on your own property without having to move it. And if they did have to move it, just switch it back and forth between Kody and Janelle, or Janelle and Christine’s. Christine is gone; she doesn’t care.

I think this was on “Disappeared” - it rings a bell with me.

He could have at least zoom called everyone regularly. I was super super super cautious about Covid during this timeframe and yet I (and my family) found ways to stay connected. Covid is Not what kept Kody from being a fair and caring husband.

Or Kody’s.

I’m still stunned by the up-short shot of “Kevin’s” ball when he sat on the couch as his dad walked out. I loved this show and I will really miss it.

And of course there’s no mention at all of the possibility of storing anything at Meri’s. Because as much as he’s whining about “being left,” it’s A-OK that he has left Meri. And what a bastard, letting her cry alone in her house, grieving for her mom. Could he even just be a FRIEND to her? Jesus.

I remember her saying she’s ago that it was her dream to have a motorhome or fifth-wheel and just spend the bulk her time traveling. So I think this is a step to that goal.

Their poor kids. Imagine having to listen to your dad go at your mom like this in front of God and everybody.

Random info: Jenner’s first wife, back in the ‘70s, wrote a book called “I Am Chrysti,” describing life with a driven, Olympic-bound athlete. I didn’t read it until Jenner was in the news regarding transitioning, and I’ll just say it was an interesting read, knowing now about Jenner really being Caitlyn. Chrysti didn’t claim any kind of knowledge about that, but there were situations in the book that make more sense with today’s knowledge about Caitlyn’s gender identity.

They both look happy.

So I’m acquainted with the two ex-inmates who befriended MKL in prison. One of them is peripheral to my family and has caused us many years of grief. I have no use for either of them. They plotted to befriend Mary when she arrived in prison with an eye to writing a book and making a fortune. I reread the book this week (from the library as I refuse to give them a dime) and the description in the book of how they first met and talked to Mary does not match what they said on camera. Our family knew of the book plan when it was in the works. We knew about the notes in the milk bottles. They were apologists for her way back then. One of the inmates currently has grandkids around the age Vili was when the grooming began and I’d love to know how she’ll feel if one of them knocks up a teacher in a few years. I do believe their assessment that after marriage Mary was basically the housemother - thereby illustrating that this was NOT some grand mutual love story but rather a woman with severe arrested development taking advantage of a kid with raging hormones. So he thought he was in love with her at age 12? When I was 12 I thought I was in love with Paul Revere and the Raiders’ lead guitarist (whom I never met!). You don’t know what love is at that age but you can be damn vulnerable. some of those smuggled letters to Vili were Mary threatening him with castration for sleeping with age-appropriate girls while she was in prison - in other words he was trying to live a normal life and move on. But she had her hooks in deep. sorry if this is incoherent. This is such a very sore subject for me.

Even if she thinks he’s guilty , she’s been taught that she must forgive. I think she’s stuck no matter what, unless she leaves the cult altogether.

Thank you!!

I liked it, too. The demeanor of the Big Three felt very genuine. I lost my mom not long ago after a grueling illness and after the service we were just … tired. And sad and feeling a little bit at sea. I liked very much that we didn’t see the funeral in detail - just enough to see that all the “kids” either spoke or sang; all were shown at the lectern. We know them well and can “know” what they said without being hit over the head with it. I loved Randall’s happy dance after learning about the grandson. And I liked the focus on him and Deja in this context. Family doesn’t have to be blood. And I liked that Madison and Elijah have been around. I have a big complicated cobbled-together family with good relationships between exes, etc, which is so easy on the kids. I love seeing that with the Pearsons. I need to rewatch. What was the wisecrack Beth tossed out when talking about all of Randall’s parents, the RV, etc - something about he’d go swimming with someone’s mom. It made me laugh. Loved the perfect day with nothing to do with the Pearsons doing mundane hints resulting in fond memories. Very real. and Jack assuring Rebecca that he’ll show her the ropes, basically. She’ll be there and so will Jack. (But I hope Miguel has someone he loves with him for eternity also.) And I know in my heart that Kate is already planning to dump Phillip and get back together with Toby.

I come from a big Greek family and my cousins and I have caught ourselves talking about the great “parties” we’ve had after certain funerals.

My whole reaction was, “ Miguel would have cleaned up Kevin and let Rebecca’s sleep.”
