S08.E16: Leneatha's Story LIVE CHAT

[mmecorday]

Quote

I like how the ad for '90 Day Quarantine' is trying to be serious and classy when you know those people are a hot mess.

I want to know what Yolanda and The Williams are up to during quarantine.

She won't get surgeryl

I made a pineapple upside down cake recently.  Never tried--or heard of- a pineapple pie. 

I've heard of a cheesecake with pineapple in it.   However, there are a lot of pineapple filling pies on the internet.    I've been told that the secret to flaky pie crust is either shortening, or lard. 

She needs to accept his help, and get with the program, before her health takes a turn for the worse.   Getting a snotty attitude with someone who is trying to help her save her life, is a terrible idea.

Videochat the real whatever-her-name-is emerges, the same as countless other non-achievers.

Yup the attitude is definitely taking a severe downturn.  And we all had so much hope.

[aliya]

Well, she turned a little snippy, didn't she?

[MsVixen]

Defensive much?

[Guest]

Dear TLC: 

I do not find two people having a Skype conversation for 10 minutes compelling TV. Christ. Can they not afford a decent producer to craft a better TV SHOW? 

[Azubah]

THIS ARGUMENT IS BORING

STOP IT

I wore my pajamas to a Zoom meeting today!  At least I did brush my hair. Nobody even cared. (they were nice looking pjs)

My mom got complimented on her nice pink flowered shirt she wore to Zoom church last week. Yes, she was wearing her pjs.

[Chicklet]

Oh she's the second person who got snarky with him in two weeks. But she's putting her FOOT DOWN.

[mmecorday]

I'm pretty sure he didn't tell her that she can't eat for four more years.

LOL!  Probably the same thing David and Lana are up to.

Visions of Beaker comes to mind during this session with Dr. Now:

Lol...I'm dead.

[Azubah]

This argument is going to go on for four years and then suddenly she'll be thin and Dr. Now will have pwned her.

The real Leneatha emerges!

I love pineapple upside down cake!  I think it's been years since I've had it.

My mother used to make great ones;  I usually get the ready to make in the cake box aisle, but what with being stuck in the house, I decided to see if we had the correct ingredients.  I had to use light brown sugar instead of dark, but that didn't seem to make much difference.  I did miss having cherries to put in the center of the slices. 

I keep hearing Leneatha is eating fried chicken.   That may be the first thing I get when I am loosed from my house.

[Armchair Critic]

She knows all the right answers... not looking good here.

I've been getting free Epix channel the last 2 weeks, I don't know why but my DVR has been busy and it's giving me a lot of movies to watch.

100 percent.  I can get this on the streets of my city...in the parking lot of a Dunkin's.

My mother made the best flaky crusts;   mine, unfortunately, look like a frankencrust.  I guess graham cracker is easier, but I do prefer the flaky crusts instead.  My daughter inherited my mother's pie making ability. 

Haha! I made an apple pie for Christmas that was probably the most god-awful ugly pie in the history of piedom. My family enjoyed it though. I will make crust sometimes but they are never all that pretty. 
hmmm...apple pie....German almond apple cake....ooh pretzels...lol (small voice) “help me!” 

[LookABird]

She is stubborn, and he is redundant. They are giving me a headache.

[Splashes]

Oh my god just shut up and move on

I am starting to think so too... she is starting to give Dr. Now attitude instead of results...

[Chicklet]

It's like listening to Charlie Brown's teachers arguing with each other.

Sorry, I haven't had substantive discussions with actual humans in 2 weeks where they haven't been pounding on me to produce data. I'm crazed.

This one is so dull that we're getting long speeches from Dr. Now. I'm about to go hit up the chocolate cupcakes with chocolate icing I made last night (at 2 am, judge all you want, I'm living my best quarantined life over here) in memory of all the past trainwrecks that entertained me. 

I'm missing the premiere of Real Housewives of Beverly Hills and Dorit's magically changing accent for this? 

I regret that I already ate my emergency pint of Ben and Jerry’s Cherry Garcia the other night. This monologue of excuse after excuse is killing me.

Last night I sent my mom a picture of my ice cream, and she said it looked like a smiling bear in a cup. 

 

[fonfereksglen]

Did she eat her sister?

[Callaphera]

Holy fuck, I went to give my cat his nightly anti-anxiety pill and feed him his "potato chips" (Temptations, he's like a crack fiend for those things) and they're STILL HAVING THE SAME CONVERSATION.

This one's dull which makes it hard to snark on it. 

You were saying?

[OoogleEyes]

Now her true stubborn personality is coming out

[Hellga]

I wonder if she is going to drop out of the program early, that's they have the endless long speeches to fill up the air time...

[Guest]

OH MY GOD. I'd give my right leg for a Geico commercial right now.

[Gbb]

I’m hoping she’s just angry at herself for fucking up and taking it out on Dr Now.

And even if she did (not eat), still not a healthy weight. 

She didn't fool me at all.

[LizzyB]

Update: I muted the TV.  Can't take it another second.

 

[poeticlicensed]

What is the point of this argument? It's just excuses. Now knows that. I guess he has to fill 2 hours . Hard to do if she wont show up at an appointment and cant get surgery. 

[MsVixen]

Can a person be on Dr. Now's program if they can't move to Houston?  

[Julyolo]

I'm feeling like Tyra Banks here. "Leneatha, I was pulling for you.  We were all pulling for you!".

Does a Pharmacy Tech put the medication into bottles for the customer?

Hey, wasn't the mom last week or the week before a pharmacy tech?  This is sounding familiar.  It was the mom who had her mouth open the whole time she was in Dr Now's office.  Must have been two weeks ago. 

[Azubah]

Yeah, fixate on the "four years" thing and miss the main point.

Beer snorts are not fun, but thanks for the belly laugh. I needed that!

[WonTon]

She's going to use her daughter's problems to give up.

[Kid]

Now she is just agreeing with him to shut him up!!

[ams1001]

Notice the change in her tone of voice at the end of the call?

Yes, sir. Bye, bye!

Pleasant as pie.

[Guest]

LOL at Dr Now trying to pretend to write something on a blank sheet of paper.

[Chicklet]

I'm exhausted by that discussion! Whew. Now I need fried chicken.

[mmecorday]

I think my cats have had more meaningful conversations than the one we just saw.

[umgoblue]

This season has had more black poundticipants then probably all the seasons combined and they are following a script/typecasting/directing them to act in this fashion---not sure.  It feels as if they are constantly trying to find and showcase stereotypical "sassy black women" for this show is getting old, very annoying and it is pissing me off.

Do better show.

If you intake less calories than you put in, that’s when the weight loss comes.
