Okay. So now it seems Robyn doesn't want the daughters to go to church for the sake of only seeking attractive men. Further conversation reveals the self-righteous hypocrites Robyn and Kody originally started out eyeballing each other in a church. Children live what they learn folks.

I am not getting why two college aged women would be needing to discuss religious choices with their mom unless they were planning on filming some sort of reality show in the future. Especially when the religious "choices" their mother made haven't gone very well. BTW, anyone know whatever happened to Dayton-A?

Kody ís okay with bad mouthing his kids because he is on the emotional level of an adolescent himself. This whole narrative of any kids being beholden to interact with their parents once they are adults, seems contradictory to me. IMO, kids are in our lives to find their way (with their parent's help) in this world. The idea that blind loyalty from adult children is expected, or owed to parents, seems very selfish. Loyalty and love is learned, not legislated by someone's father and step mother. I agree that Kody and Robyn's driveway scene seemed highly scripted and manipulative, particularly in light of the fact that for the last 10 years any relationship with the Browns with the father of Robyn's kids from her 1st marriage, has been a cipher. What are Robyn's adult children from this other father doing? Are they gainfully employed? Is this need to keep the adult children as satellites, really a disguised way for Robyn and Kody to focus on the relationships they have with everyone else, but not with each other? I had to chortle when production shared that Kody had left a heated discussion with Robyn, "and gone for a drive," because I think this is the crux of all of Kody and Robyn's dysfunction. For years Kody had problems with one or several of the wives, and he would run to another wife or Robyn, for tea and sympathy. Now, he expects his adult children to assume the positions he and Robyn have formerly assigned to his wives: saviors or scapegoats.

If I remember correctly, Robyn involved the viewing public in the whole narrative of HER divorce. And what has she done to encourage her children to have a healthy relationship with their biological father? I seem to remember her inserting Kody with her kids from her 1st marriage into photos that were taken before Robyn and Kody got together? Robyn doesn't "get" divorce? All her grimacing and crying is, IMO, about how attacked she feels now that her #1 top bitch identity is gone. Yes, Robyn, you are now the only wife. The only thing I am wondering now is how does she rationalize that 3 reasonably "normal" women have walked out on Kody, after having put up with him and his shenanigans, for more years than she has? I think that's the true source of all of her supposed angst and pain. Rant over.

Yes, I agree that watching that show was stupider than buying retreaded tires. I did still muster up a chuckle at Kody's hair styled with the slut strands on each side. I also wondered are the producers paying them for these clips that were filmed nearly 2 years ago? Or were the salaries they got in 2022 inclusive for all content?

Okay, after today's episode I think @Js Nanais right, JG is using AI to script this show. I would like to add he has most likely purchased the intellectual property of two defunct soaps: Dallas & Dark Shadows for an app to spew out content. The Emperor of Genoa City, TGVN, is currently being portrayed with an assortment of 1970's tropes. An amalgamation of JR and Barnabas Collins. A complete megalomaniac and malignant narcissistic who runs every show and like JR, is so not accountable to anyone or anything, that he can keep a dungeon with prisoners in his basement, like Barnabas Collins. After trying to accept this, the notion of Summer being Harrison's mother was attempted to be force fed to viewers by the responses of Nikki, Victor, Nick, and Phyllis to his rescue. While watching all this unfold (on what has now become my guilty secret of a show) I mused about what someone I love, or respect, would do should they ever come upon me watching this tripe? Unlike the Newmans or Abbotts, I hope my rescue and rehabilitation would be swift. BTW, does Abby know her mom has gone berserk yet? *ETA: Aren't the Newmans now doing the same thing to Harrison and the audience that Jordan did to Claire? Trying to brainwash him and us that Summer is his mother, and that the fact his biological mother, who he likely spent the first 4 years of his life with, Tara Locke is irrelevant? What is Mrs. Martinez baking into his cookies anyway? -

I met her at a fan "Meet & Greet" at the 1984 New Orleans World Fair. She was lively and lovely, and unlike the current cast, was immaculately coifed, groomed, and in gorgeous garb. A great memory, that has remained intact for 40 years now! -

Well, today's episode really brought this post of yours home to roost for sure, @Js Nana Jack and Victor going in all hard as GC's new gangsta thugs, was like some parody of a 1930's B crime noir flick. When they were sourcing the location of the diner, the driver confessed, with veiled references to it being in a shady "residential" area, my drink got spewed! Then, Victor telling the driver to leave town to save his life from the other geriatric villian known as Jordan was just ridiculous. Why would he have to leave town if this trio of caped crusaders (formerly known as corporate demi-gods) are going to "end" her? And did they really have to pull out every prop the set decorators had in their storage lockers in Burbank to decorate Victoria's new living room? Calling it like I see it...the Tacky House. -

I went there last Tuesday in a post about Cole. I also feels it strains my credulity that Jordan is always one step ahead of hospital employees, corrections officers, the security teams of NE and Jabot, and the GVN. The idea she is a one woman mastermind is a huge stretch. I kinda hope it is Cole. At least he would have been doing something in the last few weeks, besides hanging on to Victoria like a human "barnaCOLE." -

I know we wanted JG to drop his ridiculous corporate intrigues storylines, but now it's even more clear since he's moved on to this narrative of "frayed family lines," how 2 dimensional he has let these characters become. Consumed by the villainy of Jordan and her kidnappings at present would be Jack, Kyle, Diane, Summer, Phyllis, Nick, Victoria, Cole, Nikki, Victor, and Michael. Who is managing all the corporate threats to Newman Enterprises or Jabot now? Adam is currently enmeshed in Connor's OCD treatment, and Ashley has gone over the falls with her DID. Now, exactly what "supporting" staff have we ever seen interacting with the principals in either of the businesses, that would allow viewers to think things are being managed in everyone's absence? On top of all that, is the force feeding of Claire's character arc on the audience, in addition to expecting a suspension of disbelief and acceptance of all of Harrison's new "faux family," seemingly erasing the fact of his biological mother, Tara Locke. As for the powers of Jordan, they have strained all of my credulity. The comings and goings of two elite families being so accessible on a 24 hour basis to only one person is just nonsensical. Hope JG has had the good sense to have written a mole into the scripts for Jordan, to 'splain all this. -

Let's not forget old rock stars that can't get any more big gigs, sail away to perform on cruise ships. In 1992 I took a Christmas cruise right after my husband died with our teenage son. The "Archies" were on board and sang "Sugar, Sugar." My son and I still think it was quite campy, and laugh about it. @boes I don't think Phyllis as a probationer can leave the state without permission to tour with Danny. I suggest he take Ashley. He'd have the company of 3 women that way....maybe Ashley could even do a cover of "I'm Every Woman," with his band?
