When Dave and Gemma face a devastating loss, Calvin and Tina offer emotional support and reflect on a period that tested their own family.

I thought that was nicely handled.

[Cress]

Yeah, and it was nice how they planted a tree and decorated it with the mobile.

This was a sad and moving episode. It really fit to have Dave and Tina connecting, while Calvin helped Gemma deal with her grief. 

I really love this whole cast.

[DanaK]

Very nicely done

And I liked that there was a little humor. “What in the RuPaul is going on?” made me laugh.

I like that the show tried to normalize men wearing make-up. It's a needed attitude adjustment for a lot of demographics.

I liked that the show tried to normalize how common miscarriages are. Both Gemma and Tina have had them. It’s not something people talk about but something like 15% of known pregnancies end in miscarriage.

I'm actually surprised it's that low.  Among my family and people I know well enough to know, it's more like 25-50%. Hopefully that means there a lot of lucky people out there to balance that out.

Sweet but pretty depressing for a sitcom.

Agreed. And I like that they normalized men having deep feelings of loss, too.
