Finally we have an answer to the question "is a free trip to Switzerland worth it if you have to spend it with Whitney?" Absolutely not. Not one person in that group looked comfortable around Whitney and her endless theatrics and her need to constantly be the center of attention. The instant family side couldn't even hide their disgust with her, and I'm glad for once she's getting very little reaction to her worn-out act of 'look at me, I'm bossy and say clever things and you know you just love it!' Correcting Jaime in public for using the word coincide incorrectly was such a very telling moment. Rude, arrogant, no class, repulsive. And whining when others get turned off to her childish, selfish behavior. How anyone can stand to be around that kind of person is beyond me. I can barely watch her anymore even for entertainment.

Whitney's excessive self-importance and need to be in control and in charge of everything are the exact recipe for outcomes of 'literally the worst thing that can happen,' and all of that draped in theatrics will never counter these boring storyline. Glenn, it's too late to command that Whitney just 'stop it,' no matter how angry and fed-up you sound. She's 40 years old and she knows no other way to get attention other than treating every situation with her family and friends as if she is the only adult in the room, and a long-suffering one at that. Jesus, she should be glad all of her boyfriends have been fake on the show, because no guy is ever going to get to a point where the sex or money or association with D-list fame is worth putting up with this kind of person. I used to think that she's fun to be around, but not now. She's morphed in recent seasons into a repulsive human being. Or maybe she was just hiding that in the early seasons. If she had told me to be quiet on that train ride, I would have told her to go fuck herself. And get some serious therapy if you ever hope to snatch the Alabama guy with the flying squirrel beyond the video dates, or anybody else. If her followers are in love with her, it's very likely they have the same ugly personality traits.

Anyone else thinking that when this show gets canceled (more like praying, but still) that Whitney will move over to the 90 Day Fiance franchise and keep her big fat fabulous life going strong for probably a few seasons more?

I'm getting the feeling that while the Justin-Nikki relationship is very fake, Nikki was thinking "well, he tapped this hot stuff 15 years ago, and it's only gotten better during that time, so he will definitely want to tap it again," and so her contribution to the faked storyline actually has a bit of sadness for her as she's realizing that it's just not about her sex appeal, at least not with this man in this country. Part of me wants to applaud TLC's and the couple's efforts to enlighten the public about the challenges trans people go through every day of their lives, but all I'm getting from these two are fame whores and a cautionary tale, and it's becoming difficult to watch. And to Gino's family - I have no doubt that Jasmine could be happy with Gino's as long as Jasmine herself is happy and that's gonna take money to begin with. Gino would probably never find a woman as beautiful and devoted to him as Jasmine, so his family should just shut the fuck up. Both Gino and Jasmine like shiny pretty things and so far they are that to the other. Poor Devon. I didn't see the ending of that dinner happening the way it did, but I was delighted for Devon and whatever his name is. Americans in the cast could learn a lot from the Koreans (the Brit girl too) about how to navigate their relationships if they would stop sharing details of their relationships that bring out the worst in their partners. Save that stuff for never, or at least for when you've been together and stable for years.

Let's hope the family trip to Switzerland is TLC's going-away/retirement gift to Whitney. I haven't seen this much really, really bad reality TV since the last season of I am Jazz. At least in Jazz's case TLC cut its losses and embarrassment with a mercifully short final season. Thank God, though, for Angie and her daughter and their lack of the same family genetics propelling Whitney and Hunter to always dress like slobs.

Whitney has to take her shoes and jewelry off before she's weighed to see if she's under 300 pounds in order to do the simulated skydiving. Bullshit. Anyone who's looking to those crutches to help manifest weight loss is not someone focused on losing weight but probably someone who's counting on a little weight subtraction because she's not been following any strict routine to lose weight and probably still chowing down on 750+ calorie drinks. And despite the instructor telling her he's never had someone so big in the simulator - she's under the maximum of 300 pounds but it's only in that QVC world where 49.99$ is under 50$ really - she doesn't have any second thoughts about the skydiving. Worse for the instructor, Whitney's question about his ever having handled someone her size leads to the inevitable and oh so very yucky and very direct flirting. Heck, the instructor was good looking and had a great body, so why not see if he wants to fuck a Greensboro D-list celebrity? You never know. It's rather surprising that Whitney didn't press him any further after he escaped her clutches with his answer of being married. For the life of me I'm not sure why Whitney wouldn't have opened up the possibility of threesome. Yucky here pretty much defies math-yucky equals yucky squared when it comes to Whitney. Todd is very off this season, as if he's been hit with a gag order. Hunter is not a good substitute. Any other network would put the show on hiatus and maybe try to retool the storyline and characters if not during this dreadfully boring season then after (if not mercifully canceled after this season). Nobody caring at the top is leading me to do the same.

Of course milking the cow was more about the sex jokes than re-establishing Glenn as duller than dull with a desire not to die without ever having milked a cow. Hunter's gushing over how totes cool 'Angie Daughter' is will give him street cred among the 12-year olds of the neighborhood. All 'Angie Daughter' needs now is a backward-facing cap and the family resemblance will reek of cool. Where is the one saving grace of this way too long 15 minutes of fame, Todd, with his bullseye observations and snark? As to why I'm still watching, there's some entertainment for me in the guess that this family and friends lack the self-awareness to appreciate how...mmm to borrow from Hunter I'm sure...how very lame the whole thing has become.

If Whitney ever needs to understand why many people think she is insufferable, arrogant, and a control freak, the answer is on display in full in this episode...Whitney can't even manage to grieve and let others do the same without reverting to this really bad form for an adult. I can hear the cries of it's all overemphasized by the edit, but no f'ing way. Glenn seems very fragile and probably should have laid out for this season. But no Glenn and no season I suppose. Seems we're going to get touches of The Simple Life soon enough (oh I can't wait to see the cow-milking!) and even more nods toward An American Family with the exploitation of Glenn's sorrow. Dare I say bring back the dancing??? Please??? The costume part of the surprise party was awful and yes creepy. The friends are practically phoning it in this season, and seem tired of the whole charade at this point. Maybe the upcoming cow will do well enough to get a spinoff with Whitney and company nowhere in sight. That would be a damn sight better than the last few seasons of this awful high school production.

I thought I was going to hate this episode for exploiting Bab's funeral, but I found the season premiere to be very touching...and I think Babs would approve, too. Sure, all of these people are camera-ready to the nth degree, but this episode was a welcome return to the beginning of the show in its rawness and awkwardness. My next fan-fiction story about the original Charmed will of course feature the brilliant Heather Trio performing at P3, perhaps singing their latest solid-gold hit single. Am I the only one who thought I was at a wedding when Heather and Friends were performing for the grief-stricken?

Heard the news that the show has been canceled, and it's no surprise. This show is 2nd only to Lopez vs Lopez for being garbage. At least Call Me Kat flirted with being a much better, even classic comedy at times, but by this last season and especially this last episode, everything about the show was awful, from stale jokes, sex jokes, situations Lucy and Ethel would be embarrassed to be in, to even the acting of the entire cast. I have to agree with someone else here who opined Kat as the lead character, the character everything revolves around, got very tiresome as the writers put her into more and more unbelievable and not even funny story lines. And while I have grown to dislike one of the brighter spots in the cast - Swoozie's Sheila - it's very easy to appreciate Sheila's vitriol toward her immature and 'look at me, look at this crazy thing I'm doing, listen to this crazy thing I'm saying' daughter. This final episode proved that nobody from the producers to the writers to the actors even cared about putting out a better show. RIP Call Me Kat. Good riddance to bad rubbish is more like it, though. What a waste of talented actors.

Daddy's not so much dancing as he is copping a feel of one of the Harpies.

Georgi's cliffhanger is that he's back to the Sugar Mamas website? Didn't see that coming.

Georgi talk while you're fucking her, not at Stacey's special day.

We could use a little Cicero about right now.

I guess Mateo is saving his personality for the wedding photos.
