Yes! One thousand times yes! I did laugh at the Judy Cooter/Pooper bit, but other than Asta, Harry, the kids and the cops I really wish all the other characters went back to the background and only popped up enough to support the main storyline. They don't all need their own story. Especially D'arcy and the mayor and his wife! I have no idea what is happening with Terminator lady and the guy with the alien ball, plus now a different type of alien is there? It's getting overly complicated. I preferred the show when it was really more about Harry trying to assimilate into human life and him working around pretending to be Dr. Vanderspeigle. One other thing, I also laughed at "They call me Big Black!" "Great! Call me Medium Brown!" And if you haven't watched Reservation Dogs, Asta's dad as Uncle Brownie on that show is epic!

You are correct! Oops!

I got my wish - the return of The Baron, The Sire and demon dog! Were they actually eating the Dodo at the reception????

I don't know if this is a spoiler seeing as it came from social media, but regarding Morgan's unfinished BSN: Here Here! I still think Mitch is a pill, but this has been a fascinating watch in terms of what happens when one spouse is not immediately attracted. This reminds me a lot of Jamie and Doug - she wasn't immediately attracted, but she was open. Much like Krysten, Doug knew it and still kept an open mind. I am kind of digging their vibe - they aren't here for the drama and I love it. Their expressions at that dinner were hilarious. Krysten taking a shot and just sitting back is exactly how I would have been in that situation. Mitch looked like he would rather be anywhere other than that messy dinner. I do agree "pounce" was probably an exaggeration given what we've seen of Mitch - I don't think he has that much confidence with women. It was probably a drunken pass as @Jack Sampson speculates. I freaking love how Captain Krysten has turned it around now - know your worth girl and make sure he knows it too!!!!!

I thought she said she worked in a hospital?

Oh I think he was very aware considering his laughing it off with the "saved by the f$$king mariachis!" comment. I actually like Lindy and Miguel, but I'm not sure her nervous nelly and his blase "I'll see how I feel in 8 weeks" mentality are a good match. Or maybe they will balance each other out? I did like when she was starting to spiral over her normal part time routine and he just shut her down with a "you worry too much". And she did stop! So I guess we'll see..... Alexis and Justin are just.....something. This is going to implode spectacularly. Both are slightly unhinged. And what is with these two and their inappropriate tropical outfits? First Alexis last week with the red boob cutout turtleneck with long sleeves, this week Justin with a turtleneck sweater and jeans! Gah! And what the hell with Justin crying over Bihn? They just met two weeks ago - this is not his lifelong best buddy. What nonsense. I don't mind Stacia and Lindy both expressing concern for each other. I don't think either is wrong in their worry. Lindy protests that she's fine too much, and Stacia should give side eye to Nate at this point. He does seem way too into his SM, and he could barely listen on that picnic when she was baring her soul to him until she asked if he would go to therapy and then record scratch. He gives player vibes so I think she's playing this right. But she also seems kind of fragile for someone who talks a good game about how fierce she is...... Krysten and Mitch just sitting back and watching the drama unfold at that dinner table was awesome. Way to go olds! I have a glimmer of hope for these two after this week, but no doubt Mitch will screw it up somehow once back in his element. Bihn is a judgemental asshole. How dare he judge Morgan for her family situation without knowing anything about it. And the woman is a nurse - get out of here with that shit about student debt. Once she finishes that ONE CLASS (good grief) she will be making great money! Screw him. She may have lied over one little thing on her application, but his attitude says way more about him as a person. Just no.

I don't think under normal circumstances that these questions are appropriate for the first meet and greet, but this whole situation is weird, and I have no doubt that these conversations are encouraged and directed by the producers. But I do think brother is creepy. He's not Lindy's dad. I think Miguel handled it well. And my unpopular opinion is that I have appreciated their conversations even if Lindy does say "like" a lot - they have a nice mix of serious and silly and it does seem like we have been shown quite a bit of them sharing info about themselves that is useful for getting to know your stranger spouse. She doesn't bug me the way some others here feel ;-p

Yeah I buy him being able to pick they lock, but they were breaking into buildings - are we supposed to buy that there is no security system there or cameras? That is just not believable to me for such an iconic location.

Maybe my favorite part of the episode that they showed both of them befuddled by what the other was trying to say. I liked the conversation when he handed her the card saying "I can only understand 1/3 of what you are saying", and her reaction about how different it is on TV. I especially like the words on the bottom of the screen showing that what Mabel actually signed when thanking Theo for taking her was actually something about a fish ;-p What I didn't like was the ease with which they broke into Coney Island and wandered around for HOURS like the place was deserted and has zero security. Okayyy....... Gut Buzz Zero. Please show, never stop the Gut Milk jokes. I live for them. The Chorus Line stuff, and Charles and Oliver confessing all of the people who have touched the knife. So funny!

Agree - anyone remember Danielle and Cody? They chose to stay together even though there was no sex in the entire experiment and she seemed ambivalent. She kept trying to "get there". They got divorced. Other than Jamie and Doug - are there any couples that stayed married on DD without having already had sex?

I have zero problem with her laying it out like that after he told her that he wasn't attracted to her. If his policy is total honesty, she can do it too.

All of this! Nandor's face! I am still laughing thinking about it! The banana in the glass was hilarious. "I'm the butler or some shit". I died with that gay quote. Also, "long island is the playground of the glitterati". Only Matt Berry can make all this stuff work. So awesome. "We're in too deep baby!!!!"

I agree and disagree with Lindy here. There has to be some chemistry and attraction at the beginning or it's not going to last long, but down the road when it's not shiny and new anymore there is a choice to be made. And when hard times come, it's definitely a choice. But with your stranger spouse on a tv show? No way! There has to be some spark to get the relationship going in the first place! Boob window! Bwah ha ha!!!!! How I miss WNTW!!!!!!

Um, a lot when you are raised in a very strict and conservative Christian home as she has been. I was as well (not 7th Day Adventist though) and it messed me up. I think Lindy explained it pretty well that there is a lot of guilt and shame related to sex that is taught and indoctrinated when you are a teen especially. I know many are down on her, but I thought their discussions were good and both of them are being honest about where they are coming from. They also have a fun camaraderie that bodes well for them. I do think they are matched well looks-wise and I still hold out hope for them. But is "Boats and Hos" a real saying? What does that even mean??? I think Miguel is pretty sexy looking. I laughed when he said he wasn't opposed to mediocre sex. :-p No hope for Mitch and Krysten. She is a boss and he doesn't deserve her and I hope when she dumps his ass he realizes what he lost. Alexis is lying to herself. No way is she into Justin as much as she is saying she is. He is too much. I cannot believe she went horseback riding braless! And I hope those boob cutouts on her dinner outfit provided some ventilation because it was long sleeved! In Mexico! I am getting hot just thinking about wearing long sleeves in PV.....I think she would have loved Olajuwon from last season. Nate and Stacia seem well matched despite the money stuff. He caved on the post-nup pretty quick. I had to FF through Bihn and Morgan - I know he had Covid, but dragging the weddings out this long, I just lost interest in them. They seem like a weird match, and by the previews, trouble is brewing....

Oh lord, I saw on Instagram Mafsfan was sharing a post from Clara and Virginia - they were announcing a joint Bumble account and listing their requirements for anyone that would like to hook up with them. Both looked very drunk, and Virginia being true to form, clapping back at some comments there. Hot messes, both of them.... If anyone knows how to add a link, it's pretty entertaining.

Not only that, but when Krysten's mom asked his impression of her he said "She's uh, yeah...I don't really believe in love at first sight" or something like that. So if the only thing you can say to YOUR WIFE'S MOTHER is "you are very beautiful" but "she's uh yeah" it's never going to work no matter how much makeup she is or isn't wearing.

I am guessing Mitch thought the matching shirts were juvenile, which, they kind of are, but has he ever seen this show? He's a turd, but he's also 41 - contrast him with Nate throwing the shirt on and jumping in the tub in excitement - comparatively Mitch already comes across as a persnickety codger....

About as many times as Alexis saying she has been proposed to three times, and Justin saying women want to see what he's packin.......

Man, there was so much cringe this episode! That shower scene! If I can't tell what body parts I'm looking at the camera is too close! Was the camera person in the shower with them???? If so, they deserve hazard pay! And literally anything involving Justin and Alexis! Although, I have to say, I am here for the awful/awesome weirdness of Justin and Alexis. They are my comic relief. Both of them say such dumb stuff and the constant rubbing. Justin describing his physical state upon waking the morning after the wedding and telling THE WHOLE GROUP - GAH!!!!!! Ha ha ha!!!!! It's so bewildering that the most mature couple so far is Stacia and Nate! Most of their conversations were thoughtful and mature. Although get out of here with that "We use the same toothpaste! We're soulmates!" I guess my husband and I are doomed because we use different kinds of toothpaste and dental floss. Uh oh....... They could have skipped Bihn and Morgan and I would have been fine. What happened here is proof that five couples is not necessary! Mitch continues to be annoying. No poppers and refusing to put on the "Hubby" shirt. What a party pooper. He's married to a sorority gal - she is here for the matching tees and poppers! This is just a total mismatch. I think Krysten insisting that she's usually in her natural state is an overstatement. Someone who has described themself as "Elle Woods" and whose family describes as "bougie" is not all natural all the time!!! But so far, she is delightful. I like her. Lindy is a little high strung, but I still think this is the cutest couple. Hopefully Miguel can deal with his magenta flags, and it's no harm, no foul since both sides of their families were rude and overstepping at the brunches. I think Lindy is adorable with her freckles. I hope they make it as they both seem nice and "mostly" well adjusted. I love PV and you can bet I will be looking at that resort! It looks awesome!

Finally finished this, but I have to say, I actually enjoyed it! I think Jeff is the perfect goofy balance to Ann's drill sergeant bit. I hope he stays - he fits this show like a glove! I really didn't care who won, but I do think Jodi deserved it slightly more. Oh well, this show is dumb so I'm not too worked up about it.

You win!

She sure did. No idea what the hell that means, not sure I want to know. Gonna file that tidbit in the area of my brain that houses the "freak in the sheets" comment by the wedding officiant.....blech!

Wow! I would have lost that bet - my money was on Alexis and Justin! I think the sure thing yesses on DD are Stacia and Nate and Lindy and Miguel. The rest are a toss up for me.

True, but it's possible that they are more important to her than she is to them, which was my point about Nate's face during that exchange - maybe she is making more of their friendship than actually exists.

Ok, I have a kind of different take on the Megan/Stacia/Nate conversation. Megan stated that she just moved to San Diego a year ago and Nate's friend group welcomed her. Nate looked super uncomfortable as she was talking. Maybe it's because they had hooked up, but could it also be that she wanted more from him and he didn't reciprocate? How close could they really be if she's only known him for a year - it's not like they have been lifelong friends.......
