In their defense, it looked to be a kit, and they were even using the directions to put it together.

All praise Courtney for finally ending this!

Constable JD was also a thing pre-courtship.

I bet they’ll leave Danny the same age long enough for Donna to catch up so they can do a Danny/Donna/Leo triangle with Leo as the loser because he’s Julian’s raised Quartermaine spawn.

When Sonny asked Jason for a favor, I legitimately thought he wanted Jason to take Mike out back and PUT HIM OUT OF HIS MISERY!

All the bad press and reputation was obviously Donovan’s fault. I mean Alison was telling various friends and associates in front of a camera that she was totally innocent, and a victim too, so it must be true!

It could have been around the time of her miscarriage.

This episode was pretty depressing. Jana considers lowering her standards to find a man, only to return home where her family has built her a greenhouse, because they know she’s never leaving. I did appreciate Kendra’s raising awareness on breastfeeding. I had supply issues with my first because of an awful latch, even with the help of a lactation consultant (which I doubt any of them would use.) The second time around I was much more prepared (and he didn’t have a death latch.)

Probably not, as I doubt their firing will be permanent.

The neighborhoods Good Bones builds in aren’t on a flood plain, so I imagine it has more to do with grandfathering original foundations so that they can avoid newer codes and other cost cutting measures. The Northern Virginia market is a much different beast, and you can generally tell if a tear down house is on a floodplain based on how many days it’s been on the market without a developer snatching it up. When you’re spending $500k+ on the land alone, and the land is less than a quarter acre, you need the basement to up the square footage and justify the million dollar price tag. Windy City Rehab is a more comparable market (issues with Alison Victoria’s work aside...) and they almost always dig out a basement.

Kristina, and I hate to say it, Michael, should have the primary focus in saying goodbye to Mike. They grew up alongside Ron Hale’s Mike and had an actual relationship with him. I will say though that I’m totally fine with Spencer not showing up. Word. Just YouTube Todd clips between 2001-2003. So bad. When RH is invested, his performance is on fire (see his 2011 return to OLTL) but when he’s over it, it really shows.

I imagine every time her friends are looking to plan an event, she’ll offer to host, and they’ll have to politely convince her why friend x’s place is the better choice. Nobody looked like they wanted to pregame mimosas at her place before brunch ever again.

And the place she chose, she put in a giant table instead of a couch, so she had to entertain in her bedroom with two huge beds.

I just watched the first few episodes of Counting On and both John David and Joseph were PISSED at their brother. Joe especially.

I love that usually those types of questions directed at a Duggar is to see if they’re knocked up, but for Jill, it’s to check is she’s getting sauced.

Was it from Ciara injecting him with the syringe yesterday? I think it had the serum he’d been giving Ben, which made him hallucinate.

I caught some early episodes from the series and was wondering when Anna was sidelined, as she was heavily featured through the first two seasons. Was it after Josh was released from Jesus Jail and it became clear that she wasn’t leaving him?

She hasn’t had the greatest complexion, but also she was in between a miscarriage and getting pregnant again, so her hormones were probably pretty out of whack.

Curious if there’s some collateral hanging over them, otherwise they’d probably be more open to their experience and why they left. I do find it odd that they keep on talking about Kreuk and how she left, but there’s no follow up. Then again, maybe she had an uneventful realization that NIVXM was a crock like Bonnie did, and is just embarrassed to have ever been involved.

I thought him and Jer had matching shirts in one of their talking heads. I think there was a shot of Joe grilling steaks on the front porch. Spurgeon wins this episode. It was so obvious that he was trying to “get” the Dad-chelor party, but understood how dumb it was. Also, he knew that he was going to Jed and Jer’s sham front house where there wouldn’t be any food or water, so he stashed some crackers in the car.

I think the first episode was sympathetic towards the program, but I think that was to establish the bait and switch many of the members experienced when joining. The second two episodes were not at all kind to the organization. The filmmakers seem to be giving a sympathetic edit towards those who had been members, but have since defected and are looking to expose the negative aspects.

Nippy’s (dumb nickname aside) smack down of Lauren was glorious.

Jinger, the show’s “breakout star” would like to have a word with you.

My sister will call my mother “Momma [last name]” but I’m pretty sure she’s “mom” in her phone. I agree with the person who speculated it was for contact sorting reasons. Although how many non-Duggars is Jana allowed to have saved on her phone?

Play out whatever story with Finn they’ve been dancing around for years. Or get him involved with Dante’s return. I don’t get why they don’t take advantage of the actor’s natural chemistry with pretty much everyone but Sasha and Brook.
