So is Sarah now going to be running around the Alps or is she practicing to be Amish?

At least today Ciara went a small way towards redeeming herself. Having the presence of mind to leave a trail and at least attempting to escape was unexpected. The way they have been writing her lately is expected crying, whimpering, and begging while waiting for someone to save her. I was pleasantly surprised none of that happened. Also liked Cloe calling out Brady on his habit of "insta-LUV." Damn, Gabi didn't miss a beat. Rafe's going to live? OK, back to the plan - let's use my brother's situation to my advantage.

#healthy food????? Yes, sweet potato fries are slightly healthier than white potato fries, but I wouldn't call them health food. And since when is black licorice not candy?

Friends, are you ready to be introduced to the latest NUTRITIONAL ROCKSTAR?!!!!! Prairie dog is a very lean meat AND they come in individual servings!!! Just put one in your air fryer and you are done.

OK, you can see a shadow where her eyebrows are supposed to be. Did she shave them off and crookedly glue on fakes below? I'm not sure I knew those even existed. (I am old and blonde and have never had eyebrows so, clearly, I'm not up on my eyebrow game but wtf?)

See, this is my problem also. I think they should eliminate the back stories all together and have fewer episodes of purely blind auditions. Then when they get to the battle rounds, they could refresh us on what song the sang and spend a little time getting to know who they are musically - with NO montages. (I would be happy if they skipped the whole "My family is living in a box under the overpass, and if I don't get a chair turn, I'm getting kicked out of the box" thing. Unless they are facing multiple felonies, I REALLY just care about what kind of singer they are.) We could get to know them more as they progress in the competition without having to hear about EVERY dead, grandma, grandpa, mom, dad, brother, sister, best friend, third cousin, dog, cat, hamster, ad infinitum.

It seems pretty unclear exactly what their position on legalizing polygamy is. Especially since several states (including Utah) have specifically stated they will ONLY prosecute for polygamy if they are prosecuting for other crimes such as marrying a minor or food stamp fraud (looking at you Christine) which already essentially decriminalizes it. Christine has stated she wants polygamy legalized - when Aspyn was getting married she was getting all moony over the fact that she can't have a legal marriage certificate. It's really hard to come across as a persecuted polygamist when the state is essentially saying it doesn't really care - unless, of course, you really DO want to be able to commit food stamp fraud and marry little girls without the big, bad, state adding extra charges. But, like the rest of us monogamist, I guess I just don't understand.

This happens in the battle rounds when it is only one team. This format helps because if Team 1 is packed with really good singers in the old format 3 of them (they had a save last season, right?) would have had to go home unless stolen. If Team 2 is all really lame singers, 5 will still be staying. This way, there is a chance more of Team 1 stays and less of Team 2.

No, making polygamy legal would not legalize marrying underage girls - totally different laws. However, our entire system of family law is NOT designed for the nightmare that would be polygamy. And yes, I agree there are FAR more of the cult-like groups like the Warren Jeffs FLDS and the Kingston groups than the few "happy" ones they find willing to go on television and talk about how wonderful the lifestyle is. I also believe the cult people do NOT want polygamy legalized because then it would be much harder to promote incest and the exploitation of little girls, not to mention bleed the beast.

I like the new format. People have complained over the seasons that if someone has a team with many good singers some of them have to be sent home while much weaker singers on other teams make it to the lives. Even if they don't win, I would think the extra exposure is beneficial to them. Anything that allows voting instead of coach decisions is a plus in my book. I don't believe for an instant, that the judges haven't agreed among themselves who is going to battle who. They have their favorites for whatever reason and that is why they probably put forward who they did. They were either hoping for America to get rid of some of their dead wood for them or hoping for the win. There is a reason Adam didn't want to save the country singer (or, once again, is playing favorites by saving the person who he did.)

Amway - he sells Amway. He has personal experience with using one of their cleaning products on blood stains and can attest to the effectiveness of said product! And couldn't someone even mention something in passing to Will, Jennifer, Adrienne, like "great story you did on the proposed rezoning near the docks" or anything that at least implies they do something productive.

Don't you know, women can NEVER assemble anything? Except pie, women can assemble pie. Semi-related. How can TWO people who are both supposed to be running large companies simply take the entire day off to LITERALLY go fly a kite? No CEO I've ever heard of spontaneously cancels all his meetings and appointments. Yes, they do take time off, but they plan it ahead of time. No wonder both Dimera and Titan are both always on the verge of tanking. I realize no one in Salem not on the police force has an actual office but shouldn't they at least pretend they are going to one?

Remember when they opened the time capsule and Mykelti said something to Mariah about coming out of the closet? I think they were hoping to position themselves as the "fun" "quirky" "humorous" couple who say somewhat outrageous things (which they can pass off as a joke) to differentiate themselves from the rest of the spawn. I vaguely remember Tony saying something "humorous" in the women's bathroom when they were checking out the venue. Maybe they were hoping their presence would be wanted more for filming? A little extra cash coming in?

When Carson was asking the contestants if they slept last night EVERY OTHER contestant said no. When he asked Evelyn she rather smugly said "yes." I think she realized that was the wrong answer because she quickly changed it to I prayed about it and slept, but not well.

I honestly thought Tony thought he was being "funny" with that remark. They knew EXACTLY how much they were going to get from TLC and Mykelti negotiated more from Kody by agreeing to not compete with Maddie's wedding. They BOTH knew the financial realities.

I think she wants to get pregnant and is trying to prove she can make enough money on the side to be a stay at home mother. She has mentioned on the show that Tony has said no babies yet, so I think she is trying to convince him it is financially possible. With all the great examples of fiscal responsibility she has had growing up, I'm guessing she thinks shilling Lulano and nails is a great plan.

Yes, at least some of the kids in high school are probably trying to act like they are sophisticated enough to accept alternative life styles. Middle school, not so much. ANYTHING that makes you weird is grounds for teasing and ridicule. Plus, Gabe, Gwen and Aurora (and to an extent Ysabel) have the power of numbers - it's harder to ostracize all of them.

Or possibly she is following along with the Brown Family persecution complex. She can't cry persecution for being a polygamist so maybe she's trying to say that people are criticizing her for being a SAHM when, in reality, people are just saying getting an education is never a bad thing.

I think it is some sort of rule buried in the handbook "No Normal Poses. You MUST somehow twist and/or contort your body." And you a right, the first think I noticed were the dirty legs.

I think it was the insertion of the word Bible. What does the Bible have to do with the fact that you think Meri's family is dopey?

I understand that at first glance it seems like it is a dig at people who are devout followers of the Bible. I'm sure it was NOT the original poster's intention to offend believers. I hope you do not feel like you are being insulted on this board. I hope you come back and comment often as we REALLY do need every point of view.

This will not look good. I remember walking behind an older woman and noticing she had 3 blue blobs on the back of her leg. I'm assuming that these were recognizable tattoos at some point - that she did not initially ask for leg blobs. Tattoos will fade if they are not periodically renewed and large tattoos with a lot of detail will eventually lose all the detail and become blobs. I suspect she is not the only person who will regret the decision to get a tattoo several years from now. In the meantime she's just living with a very poor choice.

Yes, they must stay married for 2 years. And after 2 years they must prove their marriage - like a bank account in both their names, a lease with both names on it, a vehicle jointly owned by them, etc. They are acting like once the 30 days have passed the deportation order will be reversed (or expired) and ICE will simply go away. No one has figured out that ICE is smart enough to wait for you to reveal that you are in a fraudulent marriage. What better time for this than when you think you are in the clear and let your guard down. And seriously, Haley can't even control herself on her wedding day? Yup, this is a GREAT plan. Claire isn't really the brightest crayon in the box, is she? She hasn't realized that coming in with the recording of Tripp and breaking up the wedding is GUARANTEED to make Tripp dump her. He won't stand for the fact that she stopped his "noble" gesture. And why is no one (Claire, Eve) considering that Tripp could also go to jail for fraud? If she outs them as frauds, Tripp is just as guilty as Haley and also faces federal prosecution.

At some point several years ago she decided to address the weight issue. They all actually weighed themselves on camera. She then started working with a personal trainer. She was actually making progress even though she wasn't losing pounds. Even though the commitment ceremony dress was hideously ugly, it did show that she was much more toned and had lost some of her midsection. She even talked about opening her own gym. I think it hit her that this would be a LIFE-LONG COMMITTMENT. There was no doing this for a while and then going back to her old lifestyle of couch potato. I honestly think she believes that there MUST be an easier way and decided to make some money dragging along her "fans" on her quest to find it. Hence, the stupid posts about the latest "Rockstar" fad. I really think she believes that if she can just find the right combination of breathing, going outside, and adding a few Rockstar vegetables/supplements to her diet she will effortlessly lose weight. Yes, she will have to occasionally cook something healthy and go on a few walks (if she can find her shoes) but that is really all that will be necessary - you know, like all those click-bait ads that say you can make $15,873 a month working from home part time.

Oh, YOU were the reason I was only able to buy eleventy-two! This kind of crap really bothers me. I KNOW it is up to people to do the research and make healthy choices themselves but when "celebrities" shill this semi-toxic shit it really seems like they are using their powers for evil. Granted Lulano has the power to render you temporarily blind but at least the effects reverse themselves when you are exposed to real clothes. A quick google search on the risks of this shit reaveals: The consumption of Teami Skinny tea can cause side effects that include excessive urination, weight loss, bloating, constipation, nausea, and skin breakouts. Dandelion root, for instance, is said to have natural diuretic properties. This means that it constantly stimulates your body to flush out fluids. This may deprive your body of essential minerals and result in dehydration, which can have detrimental effects including; dizziness, sensitivity to light, and more. Other probable Teami Skinny side effects include: Heartburn Diarrhea Stomach upset Irritation Yup, I want more of this!!!
