Dang, how did Leah become so articulate and introspective at her age? When I was her age, I would not have been able to express anything beyond "my mom is such a selfish beyotch, I hate her"! It will be interesting, once Carly turns 18 and can do what she wants. I wonder if she will rebel against T&B and do a People interview for the money at least. She is, after all, still full of C&T DNA.

I hate hearing that 1000# sister getting bit by a camel!

I know for sure that I will not be watching this spinoff. And, I watch Love After Lockup, so that's really saying something!!!

Despite being so hard too watch, I loved the touching interviews, even Kody and Robyn, I had to let go of my resentments on how Kody treated his children, causing their estrangement, because I know that their pain was genuine. It did feel a little/lot weird that they started out with David climbing the fence and then Meri doing a ceremonial "changing of the tablecloth" - both such trivial and nonsensical scenarios - then, jump right into the reactions to Gabe's passing. I have heard that it's no longer appropriate to say someone "killed themself", rather it's more correct to say they "took their own life". Something about taking the criminality aspect out of it.

Last night I was struck by how good Meri looks. Maybe some of it has to do with her being more herself than the sulking whiney boor she was in earlier seasons.

One week Mahdi says he's homesick and maybe he will return to Iran. Next episode he says that if they break up that he will stay in the US. Which is it? Whoever writes the scripts for this show has a problem with continuity.

Robert and Anny's story was so painful, I had no idea. Hopefully the new baby will ease their pain. I almost missed it, but Anny said she was using birth control and still got pregnant. As she said, Robert's sperm is pretty potent, as he has (at least that we know of) 7 other children! Chantal is disgusting, I really wish she was not included in this series. I never watched any of her stupid spinoffs and don't really want to give her any more of my attention. She used the scar removal as an excuse to get extreme body modification to look even more like a Kardashian caricature. Her boobs are so overdone it must be painful. Girl needs serious therapy, NOT more surgery!!! She's GOT to be on OnlyFans, right??? I would tell Jenny to stick to her guns about not working. She collects Social Security, which is probably more than Sumit ever earned. Sumit needs to step it up and bring home the bacon. If she got a job, Sumit would put off getting one indefinitely, just like he put off marrying Jenny. He's a master manipulator and Jenny's got his number. Otherwise, she seems happy and I'm glad she's getting along with MIL at some level.

WELLLL . . . this crew was at least more entertaining than last season, I'll give them that. If Madison and David truly last, at least it was a success for them. I don't have sympathy for Michelle because she was horrid to David from Day 1 (or maybe Day 2). But Alan was truly hoodwinked - no worries though, he will get tons of attention from being on the show. The whole Emem engagement seems FAKE, FAKE, FAKE. Brandon is in it for his 15 minutes of teevee fame and I hope Emem is in on the ruse because I really don't want to see her get her heart broken.

This, 100%. You just KNOW the producers and PTB are hanging on for this story line! After watching last night's ep I feel like the show is really poking Amber, possibly because of her manipulating them. By showing all the discussion about Leah wanting Kristina to legally adopt her, it has got to be absolutely eating away at Amber. Kristina has a point about if anything happens to Gary, but in a couple years that will be a moot point.

I would've suggested that the "therapist" just call them all on their piss-poor acting skillz and take off, leaving them stranded in the middle of the desert. She really is not going to bring any value to these characters, because THEY ARE NOT THERE FOR THERAPY!!!!! It was like a domino effect, one tantrum gets attention so another decides to have one, and so on. Just have to add Josh is so unattractive, ew. Just, ew.

I think Dawn should suggest that she (Dawn) be the go-between the birth and adoptive parents. C/T can send messages/gifts to Carly through Dawn. Then, B/T can collect them at their discretion. Carly will be of age in a couple years where she can make the decision herself and Dawn will have the evidence that C/T reached out. So, Amber used the pregnancy scare tactic to keep the producers from bugging her? She certainly has a lot of experience in manipulating these folks. She's a strange one, for sure. I'm so glad that Leah has Kristin in her life. I never cared about Cheyenne and don't really care about Ashley, but good for her that she's moving forward with her life. I'm very satisfied to see so few posts on this new "season". I'm only planning to watch when I'm caught up with everything else and I'm bored.

I enjoyed it last week when participants from the Tell All showed up to watch with the Pillow Talkers. I won't be watching the dumb games.

The church I attend now is a non-denominational church and does full immersion baptisms. From time to time a person close to the one being baptised will get in the tub and help the pastor "dunk" them. I was raised in the Catholic church and of course, babies will often be held by one of their godparents when being baptised. Adults who get baptised at the Easter Vigil will stand on the altar with their sponsors while being baptised. It will be interesting to see how Kody showboats and makes it about HIM. I did enjoy watching the three in the bar having a shot, but was nervous about Truely being alone in a hotel room. I remember being ignored by a bartender and having to ask a male patron to order a drink for me. I was not aware there is some special "technique" for being served. Like being male. 😠 I loved learning about that "pod" thing in the middle of the desert! Very cool! I wonder if Kody will track it down and take his necklace back. And another thought/observation: Jenelle seemed tired of Christine's non-stop chatting in the truck on the way to find the storage pod.

Am I senile, I seem to remember "Boston" Rob starting his competitive reality career on The Amazing Race???? It's never mentioned. Dang, I really HATE getting old!

Honestly, that's the only thing about this series that interests me anymore, trying to break the mystery tryst! Am I remembering correctly that Ikechi is an educator? OMG, I would NOT want him influencing my children - I imagine him talking like that to a student that he doesn't like - yikes! It feels downright verbally abusive. I get that Michelle was mad about David's obvious lie. I don't think she expects him to be "faithful", so much as she felt like he was insulting her intelligence to expect her to believe his line.

Rolling my eyes at Bini auditioning for Cirq du Soliel on Between the Sheets. This whole show is a joke, none of these people have real relationships, nor do they want to do anything resembling working on them. Their one and only motivation is the TLC paycheck.

The "designer" probably had a contract written that specified how many times the dress would be aired, in order to get a freebie.

I remember how they built up this series before it began - a LOT! I feel like I got sucked into a bunch of - nuthin'. I won't be watching any future seasons. It was really a dumb, stupid show.

Josh is full of total BS. He claims to not know or follow any of these people or watch the show. However, he somehow manages to find Sophie's social media and send her kisses. Hmmm . . . I haven't kept up with Stacey/Darcey - they are truly horrific looking. Between Ari and Metallica it's a wonder there's any Kleenex left in the world!

Holy Hell,what TAF was that?!?!?! Kody SOBBING and hanging onto Meri for dear life. The awkwardness was palpable, and I so very much wanted Jenn to yell out in support of Meri saying "You stupid A-hole, you demean and ignore this woman for frickin' YEARS and when she finally wakes up and does something about it, NOW you have regerts?!?!? FU KODY!!" But actually, Jenn being the genuine friend, knew that Meri would not have wanted the drama.

I hope for Magda's sake that this relationship dies on the vine. Joey appears to be a slacker and a player. And Bozo realizes that Vanja is out of his league. Vanja needs to realize this. I hope this is the very last we see of Reyna and her chickens. God, poor Veah if her history of trafficking is true! I don't blame her for wanting someone to travel with/protect her. I don't think Sunny has what it takes to be in a relationship with someone with her issues.

This 100%, I've seen a lot of tv in my long life, but I have never seen a show that airs a courtship storyline the season AFTER it aired the wedding. This is the most ridiculous show and I am totally over Christine gushing about her beau. I'm going to continue to fast forward or walk away to do something else during these scenes, just like I do when Teen Mom airs segments about women who were never even pregnant in their teens.

I probably wouldn't actually watch it, but you betcha my teevee would be on while it was broadcast, just out of spite. 😁

I agree here, it seemed very soap-opera scripted to me, and why outside? Oh yeah, it's a shitshow inside. I do give Mr. Brown credit for admitting that he made two mistakes, one being not going for the girls' surgery and the other one I can't remember, but YES, he admitted his mistake! Baby steps.

I liked Sarper's costume more than Shekky's. No accident that Sarper picked Shekky's costume and made sure it wasn't as "fancy" as his? Gotta say, I'm loving how Shekky calls out Sarper's BS. He doesn't know how to deal when his tried & true method of manipulation falls flat. Did I miss Josh's explanation as to why he came to China penniless??? I thought I remember him mentioning selling his home (and moving in with mommy & daddy), did he have no equity? No job? How does this even happen? Maybe he could take some lessons from Statler on how to work remotely. He really is nasty. Something about that home reminds me of a movie set. That caricature looked like it could've been anybody. Do better, Paris artiste!
