According to the show (because who knows what the truth is in real life), did Mar and Jenn just meet for the first time at the convention? Because if I am remembering that correctly, I always found the immediate intense level of their faux friendship irritating. The "I love you's" and talking about how much they missed each other seemed on the level of how a couple of 13 year olds might act. And then the truth comes out when with one perceived mis-step (the word fat) they are straight up hating and at each others throats! Oh Sabrina....you were an absolute doll with the way you tried your best to handle the two idiots you were with. But you lost big points in your interaction with Mr. Fedora. The comments that were intended for him to overhear were ridiculous and you were the one making everyone uncomfortable, not him. But I'll cut your granny-dressing self some slack because you're so darn likeable. Did Kristi actually catch a clue and listen to her Mom and friends??? I'm hesitant to give her too much credit because as another poster stated, in one week she could have completely flip-flopped......or found another loser to latch onto.

I'm relieved that I'm not the only one who was bothered by Zsalynn. I have grave concerns about her little girl. There were complicated reasons why she herself stayed with her abusive husband, but the fact that she continued to keep an innocent child in that environment makes my blood boil. I am highly confident that Gareth was emotionally abusive towards Hannah too and Zsalynn witnessed it and allowed it to go on for many years. Can you imagine the damage this will cause Hannah in the future? Selfish, selfish, selfish....that's all I see in Zsalynn. I am happy that she's seeking therapy but worry if even through that process she's really fit to care for Hannah. Zsalynn seems easy pickins to fall right back into another abusive relationship.

I have to say, it made me chuckle when Leila dismissed Tara and Joe at the party with a wave of her hand by saying, "it's a little chilly over here".

Oh, Kristi....where can I nominate this special gal for Mother of the Year? Looking at apartments for the SOLE reason of having a place to doink the latest object of her affection. No mention at all of her precious little girl. It also felt to me that introducing Leila to whats-his-name was strictly a ploy to further cement them as a couple. Leila doesn't care, I'm sure, and would be unlikely to benefit from meeting him this early on. Please Kristi, do the right thing, leave the kid with your Mom, get your own place and ride off into the sunset, getting drunk and humping. She's so gross. Jenn's cartoon voice is ridiculous and makes her look like an emotionally stunted baby. Last night it became sooooo apparent that the voice is a deliberate act when there were the spliced scenes of her talking head (very normal voice) and her talking to her Mom (cartoon voice combined with grating, barely forming words, baby talk). Still love Sabrina the most!

I caught up on episodes all at once so I hope I have the right one.....but some thoughts regarding Terra's pregnancy: It seems there may be a chance that she took the long practiced approach and planned an "accidental" pregnancy to secure her relationship with Joe. It says something about a relationship when you dread telling your significant other the big news. Bad move. Further, it seems she didn't do much to educate herself beforehand about the very real risks her child could be facing due to the two different kinds of dwarfism she and Joe have. I'm not saying anyone should be denied the opportunity to have a baby, but it doesn't settle well that there may be an extremely selfish motivation at work here. If she used the pregnancy as a power move, I feel terribly for the high chance that this child may be severely disabled or face major health issues. It's all about what Terra wants and not looking at the reality of what that is going to mean for the baby.

I am simply amazed at how deluded Jessica is. But even if you took away the magic mirror she's been looking in, you still have left a stank, arrogant, snotty, condescending, self-centered person. So I don't know if her reverse anorexia is really the worst of her traits. Her lack of self-awareness is illustrated further by the fact that no dude seems to want to be around her. But don't all guys want "skinny" girls? So what's not adding up?! Agreed that the moaning and groaning and rolling around on the floor like a beached whale at the restaurant did not do anything to reinforce her "skinny" image. When she stated at the store that she "needs a size small" I had to assume that she was in a plus-plus-plus sized shop. Girl is one burger away from "My 600 Pound Life". Jenn bugs but I did give her kudos for the way she handled the drunk date (straight to the point and honest). Sabrina's little old Grannie style of dressing sometimes cracks me up! She's still ok in my book.

Jenn's voice sounds extremely fake and put-on to me, and just a ridiculous attempt to be "cute". Amen to this! And may I add, she then has to also berate the men for looking at her skinny SIL and not her...because she's fat! Her desperation was really off putting. Mar's drama was highly annoying. She was throwing herself at her old hook up at the club. I didn't think he was interested at all. Then she sadlly tried to use the incident as a catalyst to make Richie go, "OMG....I can't lose you! Stay with me and only me....I love you!" Fail. Sabrina was adorable and had some cute one liners. She's fun.

I too found her grating and the self-proclaimed "fabulousness" and overly dramatic laughter to be highly annoying. I say, if you have to loudly let everyone know what you're labelling yourself.....it's probably not true. Otherwise, people would be saying it for you. She's a stunted, spoiled adolescent. I did catch two interesting comments that were slipped in and glossed over. Can't remember if it was her Dad or dance partner but they said, "to lose weight you're going to have to do more than just dance", indicating to me that there was a food issue involved. Second, her dance partner clearly stated that Whitney did not have a body for dance even when she was at the height of her dancing in High School. I don't think that necessarily referred to her weight but probably rather her bodily proportions. If you were to believe Whitney, she makes it sound like she was on track to being a professional had PCOS not derailed her rise to stardom. The date was an absolute creeper with a fetish and Whitney most certainly didn't help things by making it all about her breasts within the first minute of meeting the dude.

Pandora bugs. The staff for certain was extremely excited to have the daughter of the owner come in to boss them around for a few hours. Not sure, but maybe others missed the "expert" advice she was able to provide with such gems as, "we're going to have to make sure the appetizers are out within ten minutes"! You tell them Panda face! Good Lord, what the hell happened to Scheanna's teeth and/or lips?!! New veneers? Lip injections? I really noticed last night how flat in the back and tiny Jax's head is. Obviously indicating that there is no room inside for even the most average sized brain. I think that one reason he's able to get away with so much crap with the ladies is his voice. It's very unintimidating....almost boyish. It doesn't go at all with his evil persona. Bring on the gay! Bring on the gay prostitution!

I guess I have too much time on my hands today! Last night was an old episode from 2011 that featured Elona, the bride with cerebral palsy. They also featured Courtney, a bride down in fittings, who had added all sorts of details to her dress via email and was seeing it for the first time. They made a point, as they often do, to stress that Courtney was having a "$100,000" wedding. As it always does, I wondered how this woman who lacked even the most basic grammar skills had worked her way to affording a $100,000 wedding??? Yeah, I'll admit that always ticks me off and leaves me totally puzzled! To also make a point of her obvious wealth, she had to scream at her Mother repeatedly to get "the Louboutin shoe box. THE LOUBOUTIN!!!" So I found a little ditty online today about her and her intended that makes it appear they had entered an US magazine wedding contest? Why wasn't this mentioned on the show??? Here's what she said to US magazine about why she should win the contest: "Why You Should Pick Us: We work hard everyday and are not always able to spend money like we want. We have big families and an abundant amount of family and friends we would like to share our union with but it takes alot of money to do that. Money we don't have." Where did the Louboutin's come from then Courtney dear.....hmmmmmm? Such a pretensious poseur. Yuck.

Yes. Katie's a hypocrite for sure. She goes off on Schwartz for not defending her against the interrogation by Jax, but she sits with her mouth hanging open and allows Stassi to do the exact same thing. I'm not feelin' the show anymore. Bummer. It used to hold my attention, now it's just background noise.

Amy looked absolutely lovely. The Marionette and his virginity squad looked like idiots in their "formal" wear. Go Cassia when she called the idiot brother out on his green card "joke"! Color me confused as well about the pretty, intelligent and well spoken sister. How'd she get in that mix? Thank you for this because it helped straighten it out a bit in my head. Any sad sack with half a brain, even if they had deluded themselves for a period of time into thinking this other person loved them, I imagine would finally smarten up due to the hurt and acknowledge the false situation at hand. Danielle the village idiot just keeps forging ahead full steam! Doesn't she possess any feelings? Wouldn't any normal person be hurt to be so shunned by someone they "love"? I almost think it's enough motivation for her to feel she's "showing people" and he did actually marry her! I'm so sick and tired of "the girls" being the excuse for this charade. Yes, I understand that they would be the ones handling the fall out should Mo leave, and that would absolutely suck. But would they truly care if he left, as in, miss him? Absolutely not - I am so sure! They'd probably be relieved to be able to go back to comfortably moving about their own home without some strange man lurking about. And if Danielle is in that much of need for someone to help care for her children that she's dumped all her savings into bringing in a foreign man who is totally taking advantage of her, couldn't she have just put those funds towards a babysitter? Geesh. And I'll snark freely because she's as ugly and repulsive on the inside as she is the outside but that wedding get-up was absolutely laughable. The flower stuck in the back of her head, the straps falling off the monstrous dress.....it looked like something a 19 year old would choose. I would have slightly respected her more if she had kept the Coke-bottles on and worn a decent suit from JcPenneys.

Stassi's completely useless, it's true, but it's her holier-than-thou attitude because she has a boyfriend that's absolutely pissing me off. As though she is now the supreme most knowledgable about all things relationship related.....AND may cast her judgment upon you at any given time. Get over yourself. All these losers getting so riled up, sticking their plastic surgery enhanced noses in each other's business is tiresome and so played. Maybe to Tom and Katie, motorboating crotches and kissing randoms in Vegas does not constitute cheating. And it's well within their rights as a couple to determine that. But noooooo......everyone has to shout from the rooftops that they must stand up to each other and break up immediately!!! Who the hell cares? I'll join the chorus: can't we find another way to generate drama? And they can't replay the cheating theme again because the first time was just too darn good!

I agree. And it seemed out of place for the type of woman she had shown herself to be. That incident aside, she cracked me up and I liked her spunky attitude! This x 1,000. I keep listening for it but I have yet to hear Eseni mention one single time that she wants to be a sister to help others or dedicate herself to a life of service. It's only about running away and protecting herself from having a man lie, cheat on and hurt her. I'm waiting for a nun to call her out on it and tell her to move along. The snotty/removed/disconnected attitude didn't help the situation. When Sister Beth, Christie and Stacy were having their discussion on the bridge over the river while the others finished handing out their bags, it was confirmed they were downtown, most likely in the Loop. And while yes, there are homeless people no matter where you are in Chicago, it is absolutely not an unsafe or ghetto area (it's laughable to think of it that way). Pretty ridiculous the way Francesca especially was freaking out. They should have dropped her off at Macy's while they did their business. Mild dramas aside....I am in love with this show! How refreshing to see a "reality" show with young women searching to do something valuable and meaningful with their lives. Overall, I think it's pretty quality, family-friendly t.v. Not as an advertisement necessarily for becoming a nun, but how about just to spark a conversation of being kind to others and becoming a quality human being? I'm not a Catholic, but I found myself looking up more about what perpetual adornment was as it was mentioned on the show. Not many reality shows make me do that.

Funny for that to be the ONLY reason he's staying too.....not a darn thing about that loser Danielle. I honestly don't know why Mo hasn't thought yet to tell his secret....that he's impotent. Hey, Danielle keeps secrets, he can too - until after the wedding! Big reveal! I continue to feel bad for Cassia! She kept saying, "he's not understanding me". Sadly, I thought she was doing just fine expressing herself! Jason the dolt just couldn't get it. He makes my blood boil probably as much as Danielle.

Yuck.....Claire. How can you minister to and serve others with such a superior, condescending and smug attitude? No thanks. I know that Jesus is many things to people: Savior, spiritual guide, inspiration, point of comfort, are just a few that come to mind. But it doesn't feel right in the gut to think of Jesus as a humanized/sexualized boyfriend that makes you crumple in hysteria when you "see" him. Yowza.

Oh Daya, that comment cracked me up too! Yet another reason to love Amy. All these idiots should be the ones making her feel comfortable and welcomed (Marionette, I am mainly looking at you) and instead she's the one so politely trying to make conversation. The absolute irony that escaped the Dad was that his wife looked more like Amy than Amy's own Mother! I honestly don't know if I would even put it together that Amy is mixed race if I saw her? How wrong is it that Cassia is now the one I feel sorry for? If Jason in fact has regaled her with tales of strippers and prositutes, I don't blame her one bit for being worried and putting her foot down. Look at that loser, how else was he getting any action? I guess I have no understanding of how the visa process works because how can a now unemployed woman with dependent children be allowed to be the sole "support" of an unemployed foreigner? How likely is it that they and/or the children are receiving government assistance? She makes my blood boil. I can't wrap myself around what Mo is staying for.

I thought the same thing! It was more like they were being sent to reform school than something they had personally decided to pursue. Francesca's meltdown was astounding to me. On one hand, I completely get it!! Yes, being without make-up could be construed as just as distracting if you are then overly self-conscious and feeling like crap. That being said, these girls are shocked by this fact? And that they can't have mile long stripper nails, wear cute outfits and carry their cell phones? I'm not even Catholic and would have figured that out. Some nuns don't shave! Come on girls! This is your chosen life and you didn't bother to do a little research into what said life actually involves? It will be a tad hard to snark on the girls because how can you criticize someone who is considering going into a life of service? That being said, Claire needs a good does of humility. She already considers herself Mother Superior in comparison to the others. Yes, Christie was a bit nutso in some of her confessions, however, who is Claire to issue the judgment that Christie wasn't having true visions and was only deep in prayer? And that Eseni probably hadn't been exposed to such an intense Mass before. How do you know that, Claire? While she does in fact seem the most prepared and probably the one most likely to be successful, her arrogance was off-putting. Oh, Eseni. What a doll. But she never said one word about serving God or others in describing her desire to be a nun. It was all totally about not having to deal with drama. A case of "running away" if there's ever been one. Stacy, the actress, is so far my absolute favorite. I thought it was very eerie when she was describing reading about the actress who was a co-star of Elvis who became a nun and they showed her picture.....did anyone else think it looked exactly like Stacy??? Yikes!

Drugged Jax caressing the nurses face while saying "I love you" probably looks exactly like any random Saturday night in the dudes life. I love to look at the backgrounds of these losers apartments during their scenes. Katie and Tom have plastic hearts strung around their head board and closet doors that won't close. Interesting.

I'm fairly confident that the clip of Danny's Dad will be revealed as yet another TLC set-up when we see the entire conversation. Here's my worry for Amy: is she an only child? Do we know much about her background or religion? The lovely, kind, group of women and Danny's sisters may be over the top appealing to her. Like, more than even her future husband. She may love being brought into a group and truly feeling a part of something. It's just too bad that she couldn't have found the same situation to fulfill that need at a college sorority or a local church group. Ugh. I'm sorry that with Danny it needs to be a package deal.

Glad that everyone else also saw a prostitute and total dweeb walking into the aquarium. The shark comments were absolutely weird, uncomfortable and stupid at the same time. He was like a mean spirited uncle teasing a child. I was surprised though that Cassia's response to the proposal and ring was actually pretty sweet. I just don't understand what she's thinking though....she can't possibly love or find the cartoon turtle even mildly interesting so what's the motivation then? Get citizenship and then find the true meal ticket??? Oh, Amy. The sunset party was beautiful and thoughtful and she seemed truly touched and happy. But the straight out questioning about having sex for the first time made me shudder. If you're really that nosy, or feel that you are somehow helping her by having that conversation, for damn sure do it in private!!! Amy's "special moment of becoming one" (as one of the girls put it) is going to more likely leave her scratching her head....if the moment happens at all. It's sad to me that these women are sold this grandiose fable about the "fairy tale" because the turth more often than not is going to be a total let down. Or worse, something they are totally unprepared to handle (ex, homosexuality, abuse, etc....).

OMG...the sister in the Chicago episode last night! I don't care if you're family; mean spirited, negative, put-down humor is one of my biggest pet peeves. When they walked into the guest bedroom in one of the condo's, sister remarked how disgusting, ugly and uninspiring the paint color was. Buyer sister replied, "oh, I like it!" To which sister shot back a lovely comment along the lines of, "that would make sense, of course you do." Second favorite observation was her absolute horror with the fact that you walked into the dining room from the main entrance instead of the living room. She tried to sell her point to buyer sister by stating as a fact that she would simply be too tired at the end of the day to be able to walk back to the living room and instead would collapse in a heap in the dining room. What an idiot!

After watching the newest episodes, the show needs to be renamed. Seriously.....there is nothing left of the original "something borrowed". Tell it like it is and title the show, "Something New, Something Custom Made". It's absolutely ridiculous to hear a Mom wax poetic about her dress and wish the daughter would "choose her dress" when I am quite certain the Mom wouldn't even be able to pick out her remade dress in a line-up. One scrap of original lace sewn to the hem in the back doesn't count.

I read a little about the beezness and it seems that the scammers are warned that you may end up with a poor target but you just discard them and move along to the next. How did Mo end up taking it this far? Did Danielle lie about her finances to snag him? Agreed with all those who have posted about the wedding dress.....your children probably realize that you don't know where their next meal is going to come from, but there you are parading like a teenager in front of them in wedding gowns. Unbelievable!!! I thought so too. But Danielle is so delusional, I seriously don't think anyone can get through to her. Oh, Amy! It goes beyond not wanting her to marry the Marionette......I don't want her to get married this young at all! She's such a bright, mature and thoughtful young woman. She could experience so much of life right now and be successful in so many different ways! What is she doing??? Danny is light years behind her in every regard. I also didn't like the way he handled the race conversation. I felt the way that he phrased it indicated almost that it was Amy's "fault", or certainly her unfortunate problem to deal with. I can't help it, I think Yamir is an endearing cutie and I hope things work out for him. With or without Chelsea it really doesn't matter!

Caught an old episode last night with a bride named Mon Cheri who wanted to look like the bride from Coming to America. Her name killed me....mainly because she pronounced it M"ON" Cherry yet carried herself with this hoity toity air of faux french sophistication. She obviously knew no real french but had to make random comments constantly such as "oui, oui"! Some of her party pronounced her name correctly, but if the bride herself said her name differently, weren't they really incorrect in their pronunciation?!
