An "expert" actually showing up to do their job, making a home visit...since Cal lives in Atlanta it must be Viv or Pepper

Useless, as usual.

[Retired at last]

I think from something I saw in the previews, that it is Viv. I remember Clara talking about how she hasn't gotten anything from Ryan, and I think she was talking with Viv, which makes sense. Although, Clara shares that info with everyone!

The poor FedEx guy gets an update with every package he delivers to Clara that she still hasn't been boned by her hubby.

Y'all know the new Wendy's commercial?  Here's the MAFS version, "Chris Alert, Major Narcissist Alert!" Someone needs to post this when he shows up tonight ( I don't watch in real time.)

[Devvie]

They really should air this season during Christmas... It's the Island of Misfit Toys. A train with square wheels, the rejected doll, the bird that swims, etc. etc. 

"The residents of the Island of Misfit Toys are a group of characters from the Rankin/Bass television special Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer. They are sentient toys who all have some strange quirk about them. Because of said quirks, these toys feel that there is no human child who could possibly want to play with them."

Jake should get a divorce and ask Haley’s girlfriend Caroline with the long nose, for a date providing she’s single.  Jakes 80’s house and neon isn’t why she doesn’t like him.  Am I going to throw away all my husbands baseball cards from the 70’s?  Am I going to throw away all his favorite t- shirts that are frayed a little?  NO.  Is he gonna throw my Barbie dolls out because they are old?  All excuses.  They are not reasons to not like him.  She didn’t like him from minute one.  Cut the shit.  She’s going for drinks with the girlfriend for seven years to bars I assume.  She didn’t meet anyone she liked in seven years?  She belongs single with her drinks and dog.  Pretty soon she won’t have anymore single girlfriends to have drinks with at this rate.  She wanted an apology because he had her number and told her the truth?  She should have apologized to him for leaving him all week to see the girls.  Who does she think she is?

Paige is book smart and that’s all.

I thought Haley said she'd been in a relationship for five years and it ended when he got someone else pregnant.  So unless she was dating him when she was 16, the relationship ended when she was 21, and she hasn't been in a relationship since then--I don't understand the timeline. 

[VioletNevermind]

Did this dumbass really just announce her password on national television?  Lawd. 

[Crashcourse]

Is Viviana going on a date later?

[Straycat80]

Let’s see what Vinnie will get butt hurt about this week. And are they really not going to talk about the failed dance lesson? 
edited: never mind, they are addressing it. Good. This is the only couple I’m rooting for.

I'm afraid, yo! 

Tonight: Haley again rejects Jake; Brianna walks on eggshells; Virginia drinks incessantly; Ryan looks stern at goofy Clara. Call me psychic! 😄

 

[Crashcourse]

I was shocked that Virginia looked clean.   

So why didn't Vincent apologize to Brianna sooner?  Why did it have to be public?  

Oh that's right.  TV.

[Straycat80]

The actors, Paige and Chris are on. Not watching this farce anymore. Time to get a snack. 

[LennieBriscoe]

Paige, that baby ain't going anywhere out of Chris's life for 18 years! "Reset"?!

I almost admire Chris for taking advantage of this deliberately foolish woman.

Anyone catch unfiltered? Who was on?

Paige waiting for her meeting to see what her future with Chris will look like like and I’m thinking it’s not going to look like anything!

[Mindthinkr]

Chris should just answer the question honestly. He would be comfortable with booty calls. 

[Kiss my mutt]

Gah, these two make me stabby.

[JAndy]

Did anyone watch Unfiltered? Seems like Haley is so not into Jacob at all. Like I could feel the disdain through my television.

Pastor Cal, Erik & Haley. I felt like it was obvious which couple is still together and which isn’t from it 

[LennieBriscoe]

I don't care for Haley's lacquer lipstick.

Or some of these questions. 

Edited March 18, 2021 by LennieBriscoe

[Straycat80]

These questions are so cringe worthy. Clara wants to get laid so bad, Ryan is stupid if he can’t see this.

Clara, somebody might want you if you'd just shut the fuck up for five minutes.   Just breathe....

Oh, he sees it.  He just isn't into having sex with her, at least not right now.

[Mindthinkr]

I swear the segments are getting shorter and they’re putting in more commercials.

I didn’t care for Clara’s either. It accentuates her pout which is getting longer due to her sadness of not having sex. I’m starting to wonder if Ryan is a virgin.

“We haven’t included God.”  Chris had better get to an interior room because he’s about to be struck by lightning.  This guy is so far from conducting himself in a godly (or even halfway decent) way.  I continue to have zero sympathy left for Paige.

How thoughtful of you. Yes please. I’d love one. I have ice cream. 
Watching this show is going to make me fat. I’m surrounded by all this unhappiness. I wonder if this season is a dud and nobody is going to stay married. Well maybe the engineer and car man. Not a good sign when I start forgetting their names. 

[Airy2021]

Whenever Chris is on the screen I have to actively work at NOT throwing my drink or other items near me into the screen. He is infuriating and Paige is absolutely brain dead for continuing this farce of a relationship and giving him ANY attention whatsoever. 

[Crashcourse]

I hope Paige is just mind-fucking Chris, because she has to know damn well he's not interested in her.  

[Kiss my mutt]

Is Bible study a euphemism for booty call? He won’t play cards but everything else is on the table. 
Ryan is so clinical about everything and Clara is too full on about everything.

Gosh, Erik makes Hailey’s skin crawl and she can’t even hide it. Honestly, those two just need to call it quits and they know it.

Yum! I have a chocolate cake with green frosting made by my mom. 

[Mindthinkr]

I think my cookies think I’m going to become an alcoholic watching this show. Every time that I’m on here I get ads about treatment centers. I watch this sober 95% of the time. It’s VirGinias drinking I keep talking about. 😂

Help yourself, have 2 cookies and pass the rest down...

The season is now in the doldrums....we drift around for the next 5 episodes....doing nothing...

I’m watching late and I agree. Chris and Paige are such a waste of time. 

[LennieBriscoe]

Haley needs to be honest. She doesn't like Jake's looks. That was the risk, and for her it didn't pay off.

 

[Crashcourse]

You can't have intimacy with the damn dog on the bed.

[Mindthinkr]

I wonder if Jake has bad body odor. That would keep her far away from him. 

[Straycat80]

Haley looks like she’s going to have a panic attack. She so does not want to be anywhere near Jake. She not into him at all. 

[Mindthinkr]

You know if you gave Haley a choice she’d choose the dog. 

[VioletNevermind]

Haley’a face says, “Jake has cooties and I do not want to kiss him good morning.”  We’re really trying to fit a square peg into a round hole here.  Or, to make it relatable for 80s Jake, “Gag me with a spoon.”  Either way, she ain’t kissing him.

Oh goody.  She’s going to fix everything up, haha.

[Crashcourse]

Jake has this constant smirk on his face.  Some people have said Haley needs to lighten up, but so does he, even if they are just roommates.

No doubt! I cringed for them when they went to the bedroom.

Maybe Jake's peg is square?  Is that the problem? 

[gonecrackers]

Viv is a total teevee 'therapist'. Everyone can read Haley's disdain for Jake but her, who tells them to start kissing. Kissing even just hello/goodbye etc. is such a stupid thing to tell them to do. Jake knows Haley can't stand him. Now he's in a position to push physical stuff, because of the 'therapist's advice'.

This all could have been avoided if Haley had been honest & said she does not want to try, but she's being completely dishonest.

Maybe Jake's smirk is "Okay, let's hear your flim-flam 'reasons' when we both know you've hated my age and my face from the wedding."

I think both Paige and Haley have been talked into just riding out the farce by production until D Day.
