Mrs. Button September 28, 2020 Share September 28, 2020 (edited) Quote Did we need to know her chassis got torn up by the 9 pound baby rumbling through her like the boulder in the opening scenes of the first Indiana Jones.... No, we did not. I always leave these exchanges with copious sympathy for Doug, not Mrs. Overshare, though to be fair he did make his own bed. I *do* respect her overall message, it is just that a little Jamie goes a long way as she comes off as sanctimonious IMO, like every mom was doing everything all wrong until she enlightened us (live birth and all!). Here's the thing about Christina pre-plastic surgery or whatever: I thought she was a nice enough looking person, interesting and maybe even a bit exotic from some angles. I feel like it's such a bad idea to get rid of what makes you distinctive in favor of looking like a photoshopped ad — now if she could get integrity or kindness via personality plastic surgery, I'd be all for it.

Elizzikra September 29, 2020 Share September 29, 2020 Quote just a nurse's salary I don't know what kind of nurse Jamie is/was (Labor and Delivery, I think) but depending on where she worked, what shifts, how often overtime was available and a host of other things, she could be making enough money to support her family in a decent middle class lifestyle. RNs can earn good money, especially if they have additional certifications and some years of experience. 7 Link to comment

I must be in a really shallow and snarky mood lately, but I get why she went for the plastic surgery (if that's what she did). I personally did not find her very attractive at all, especially for her age. OK, I'd say she's about of average attractiveness, but not particularly attractive.

TheMediumBopper September 29, 2020 Share September 29, 2020 (edited) 'Petite' refers to overall height as well as size, does it not? Henry's major comment on his wedding day (which he said with some dismay, I thought) was, "She's really tall." No plastic surgery or weight reduction in the world is going to make her shorter. Henry has never made a comment about preferring women of a particular weight. I think he mostly didn't want someone who's the same height as he is. Which ChristinA is. (Long ago, I worked in the Petites section of a department store. 'Petite' was defined as women who were 5 ft 4 or under, but the petite sizes ran up to size 16.)

Retired at last September 30, 2020 Share September 30, 2020 What is WRONG with Olivia? If Brett is nicer to her without the cameras, then what is her problem - that should be the REAL Brett? The cameras are going away soon, so she should just be happy that the nice guy will be left. Judging from the camera scenes with them on the couch (that must be the nice conversation they mentioned last week), he certainly gave her an indication that he wanted to get physical by telling her to kiss him, but those little pecks sure won't start any fires. I think Brett IS really trying. It is just that nothing makes her happy, at least not from him. 6 Link to comment

If we, the viewers, don't get to see how smitten he is with her so she can strut around like she's all that, it's of little value to her. No one can see it when they are off camera so to her it doesn't count. She is all about appearances. Good Lord, she's impossible. 1 7 Link to comment

It looks like Brett had plenty of female admirers before the show and he certainly will not lack for any after the show is over. My two cents: Olivia has totally lost her attraction for Brett. She now has less physical attraction for him now then Karen has for Miles. 3 Link to comment

It was nice to hear Barry White's band and remember relaxing with someone that I had chemistry with. Olivia would want to have a discussion and not just try to relax.

humbleopinion October 1, 2020 Share October 1, 2020 I am throwing out my theory to why Brett jumped ship... Olivia will still be working at the medical center so to protect himself, he is isolating himself from her at his house. Camera crew and field producer gone, husband gone.

I thought the same thing seeing the previews that Brett would go home instead of expose himself to the Covid virus. Could even be more likely that Olivia was going back to her apartment so that she would have a quick commute during the Covid crisis where I could understand about the commute. So if Olivia won't be at the apartment, Brett would go to his house. Editing drama. 7 hours ago, Retired at last said: Amelia is not working right now, is she?
