Season five is up. A quick glance of the episode descriptions tells me it's almost all paranormal stuff (3 out of 4). So probably won't bother watching. I actually did enjoy the first few seasons of the reboot, and a few of the episodes of season four were okay. I'm not too eager to watch almost all paranormal stuff. A few episodes fine. Mostly paranormal stuff, not so much.

They did a tell all last season. I remember that awful Jason was on it. No idea why they dropped it this season.

It's time for Amber (and Leah and Gary) to end their Teen Mom run. Amber is unstable. I can't imagine what Leah must feel seeing her Mom breaking down over a man she hasn't known long, when she's completely cool with not seeing her minor child for long stretches of time. If she had that kind of breakdown over Leah or James I could begin to feel something for her. I don't think C&T's kids (and by kids I mean the ones they are actually parenting) needed to know about Carly until they were older. C&T don't get that being a birth parent is not actually the same as parenting. So of course Nova would think Carly is her sister and she should be able to see her when she wants. I don't entirely get what happened with Ashley. Her take on it doesn't sound like she was in any danger from Bar. It must have been more serious than she is letting on, because Bar seems to be facing several charges. Why would the prosecutor bother doing that if he had no case? I hope, for her sake, it wasn't as bad as her Mom made it sound. At some point Bar will get out, and if he is as bad as Mom believes he shouldn't be anywhere near Ashley or Holly again.

Same. I give her some credit because she seems to be continuing her education. Unlike some of the other girls, she will have a useful career when this show ends. Other than that completely over her. I've also never been a fan of her mother either. I guess when none of the other girls want to film with you at all, you don't get as much air time. Funny how that works. Can't get along with any of your coworkers, don't work as much. Once again Amber is facing consequences for her actions, and of course it's not her fault. It's Gary's. Well, og Gary's fault. I'm shocked. This is my shocked face. I hope Devoin maintains a relationship with the girls. Despite Brianna's opinion, it's completely possible to still be in their lives. There are phones, emails and planes, as long as he is willing to take some initiative. And if a change of scenery will help with his addiction issues, it might be worth getting away.

Jenna is an idiot. Something tells me she thought she could have the perfect family with JJ, and just pretend Aidan never existed. That's not how it works when you have a child with someone. She is going to have to deal with Aidan, pregnant or not.

She was a long term methadone user. She had a history of heroin use going back to her teenage years. Apparently her Father used to make her shoot him up.

I am working on the assumption that the whole Cate and Maci go visit Amber and Gary and insert themselves in Leah and Gary's business was somewhat scripted. It's hard to believe real people would go so far out of their way to put themselves in the middle of someone else's family matter. Especially something as sensitive as a child wanting their stepmother to adopt them, because that's their real mother. Their egg donor isn't a consistent presence in their life. Also, on a shallow note Maci looked rough. Also, a little tired of the Momma Dejesus drama. She's sober. That should make her kids somewhat happy. The old Mom that they seem to want back, was probably using. Maybe they need to let her go, and work on forging a healthy relationship with their sober Mother.

First impressions after watching volume 4. The rebooted format of one thing per episode and five episodes doesn't lend itself well to two episodes that probably won't be solved ever type things (Jack the Ripper and the Mothman). Episode two: I lean towards a strange accident. However, nothing explains why the pets (especially the dog stayed away). I can see a cat hiding if something spooks them, like their owner loudly falling down the stairs. I can't see a dog not going down there. There was barking though, so it's also possible the dog was attempting to get attention and help. Possibly upstairs near the street entrance where people may walk by? As for the footprints showing she stood up at bottom of the stairs, if she lost a lot of blood, and had a head wound, she was likely disoriented. She may have stood up and passed out again. I lean towards accident, but I can see why this remains a mystery. It's just strange.

I watched this today while doing other things. I am not a fan of the Dejesus family. I did feel for Brianna and Brittany during this episode. Their Mother has always been erratic, and I believe she's said she is bipolar. So I guess it never occurred to me, that perhaps she also has substance issues. Their family dynamic is starting to make a little more sense. (I am guessing she is only recently on methadone, since her behavior has recently changed. That she's been abusing hardcore opioids for a long time). Hopefully, she'll get whatever rehab package MTV is giving Leah's Dad (who appeared out of nowhere when it was time for someone to pay for his rehab). Sadly, this show probably has a deal with a center somewhere with the amount of people on this show who have needed help over the years.

I have to say watching some of these girls makes me want to have the talk with my daughter, and she's only 9 months old. That 15 year old seems like an especially young 15. I cringe at the thought of her trying to raise a kid with that boy who is so clearly not ready for this. Also, fun fact, I became a first time mother last year, and I'm older than the 15 year old girl's mother.

it's a sad attempt at baby hair.

Wow they are taking this trashy show to a new level.

Possibly spinoff in the works following Max's daughter. https://deadline.com/2024/03/new-amsterdam-sequel-series-max-daughter-1235862496/

What does being pretty have to do with crime? Ted Bundy was considered attractive.

Here I am working a job and I could be slinging eyelashes for more money. Tacky pays!
