Season 16 Live Chat Thead

[Ms.Lulu]

I was so hopeful that interviewing everyone separately was going to lead to some harder questions and people being held accountable.  But so far that's just not the case.

30 minutes in and all we have learned is Kody is still angry. 

[Julyolo]

"They can go whenever they want!" Well, thank you, Master! I get the feeling Kody is redirecting his rage to Robyn now that he doesn't have Christine to kick around anymore. Meri is frequently gone, and Janelle spends alot of time at Maddie's. Robyn's got no where to go, and he has got to be enraged at Christine's defection

She has always been like that since she pretends she has been there since day 1. 

And has a creepy painting to prove it

I don’t like to make personal remarks about any of them as far as looks go, but Robyn just appears like this lifestyle/fambly or whatever it is has really taken it’s toll on her. She just looks stressed and worn. 

[mytmo]

So COVID! COVID! COVID! is the blame

The only plural family that seemed to be somewhat functional was Kermit and Co from seeking sister wife

She looks like she aged 20 years in 3 or 4

[Ms.Lulu]

Christine saying she worried about Janelle and Janelle admitting she was just watching television.  They do seem like family.

Are we still talking about the catfishing? Kody is a small man if he is still this enraged over the whole thing. He will punish Meri until the day he or she dies.

[Julyolo]

Christine looks the best of any of them. Ladies get a clue, freedom is the best look!

[mytmo]

Why do they have 3 parts again?

[Ms.Lulu]

"Abandon, please--she was leaving my ass."  Finally, Kody admits it.  I believe this is the first time anyone in the family has admitted Meri was leaving for another man and monogamy.

Because it will take 3 hours to learn 10 minutes worth of news

This family has been fractured since Robyn joined them and they moved to the rentals in LV. The only thing holding the first three together was their children, but with most of the children grown and gone or going soon there really isn’t much reason to stay. 

[Julyolo]

I think Christine is the first woman that ever truly dumped his insecure ass. Loving this!

[Adeejay]

When Meri said that she wanted to talk to the family, Kody and Christine looked petrified.

So where does having a Nanny come in every day from the outside world reduce exposure?  Is she taking a Silkwood shower before entering Robyn's house?

Silkwoood. I get that!

And I think it grinds his gears more than if any of the others had done it because he has fully admitted that he was barely interested in Christine when they first met. 

[Adeejay]

Robyn gets the shit end of the stick?!  Really Kody?

I think my mom had Robyn’s blouse in 1979.

Robyn looked like she was trying to look like a plyg wife - modest, old fashion, hair modestly tightly curled.  She was trying hard to look like the only wife who is respectful, and fits in with this culture.   Not anything like the pics we have seen of her out shopping, or out to dinner with Kody.   Victim dressing.

[Toodleoo]

Dude's gonna have a stroke if he keeps up this rage.  

[Twopper]

Oh, noes.  Not the damn cat fish again.  This sorta reminds me of kody complaining about Christine talking  to the others about leaving but instead of talking to Christine about it he just let it fester.

Kotex: “Meri unloads her feelings on me and I have to carry the burden”

Does he ever take responsibility for anything??? I mean isn’t that what spouses do? We tell each other how we feel…

Not @that point but I think she's gonna get that now.... from Kody! 

[Adeejay]

I hate to admit it, but Kody is right.  In all fairness, Meri thought she had found a rich, good-looking man and was going to leave.  

Edited January 31, 2022 by Adeejay

[Ms.Lulu]

10 years with no intimate relationship--that explains why Meri was willing to move to another relationship.

Loved she was leaving for a better richer man.

And this idea that it is a double standard is ridiculous.  He effectively has ended his relationships with Meri and Christine.

[sainte-chapelle]

The Progressive commercials bug me….I don’t think there is anything wrong with praising an employee to his manager, especially in retail. I worked in retail and it can get you a bonus.

[Julyolo]

Kody is doing a helluva job tonite mansplaining how these women only exist in HIS world based on HIS needs. He's an emotional moron. Most toddlers have more empathy.

[deirdra]

instead of a Kleenex, the guy on set should have brought a bottle of glycerin drops (fake tears) for Robyn and showed the label to the camera

[mytmo]

Curious if Meri knew prior to marrying Kody that there was going to be other wives or was it decided after they were married?  The way she mistreated Janelle when she became wife #2

Yes, and she lacks the courage to tell him it was because there was nothing between them anymore in part because of Robyn. I remember in an earlier episode she mentioned a woman having more than one husband and he nearly stroked out then.  I wish I could type better on this phone. 

[LEILANI2]

The fact he had stopped having sex with both Christine and Meri for 10 years shows the whole show was a fraud. He has only been intimate with Robyn since he married her and all of them kept up the charade for the show that there was any resemblance of a relationship.

I wonder if it was mentioned but she never believed it would happen she was only 19 and in love and believed she would always be enough.

[Starlight22]

So frustrated that there are no hard questions being asked. Interviewer should be asking Meri or Kody why the intimacy stopped 10 + years ago, not just after catfishing.

I think she resented Janelle  because Janelle was her former  SIL. Meri’s mother was apparently really the reason that Meri’s parents started to be polygamous. 

[Julyolo]

Kody's "just trying to find a way to be honest". What a tortuous path that will be for him!

[Ms.Lulu]

Kody admits that he thinks what he offers Meri is not enough.  

But he really doesn't care.  He's not asking her to kick rocks down the street.

 

[65mickey]

I swear there are 4 minutes of the show and then 6 minutes of commercials. The only thing that has been made clear is that Kody has clearly left 3 of the wives but thinks he can get away with blaming the wives for his rotten disgusting behavior. When the interviewer said to Kody that he had emotionally abandoned the 3 wives he blew up and said to her take that back. 

[For Cereals]

Kody can marry multiple women, but can’t find any forgiveness for Meri or even ask why Meri wanted to leave?  

[sainte-chapelle]

Robyn and he fake crying…I can’t 

[Adeejay]

Seems to me that the interviewer is being really soft with Robyn, but not with Meri and Christine.

[Starlight22]

Wow. So Meri has made peace with the fact that she and Kody will possibly never be in a “fellowship” again. I don’t understand why she would put herself through this.

She struck a nerve because it is the truth

Poor Isabella just wanted to see her dad.

[Ms.Lulu]

Still love...What does the nanny do?

This idea that they weren't trusted is key.  

Love the host saying to Robyn, "You were around Kody the whole time, why didn't you get them the rules?"

Edited February 7, 2022 by Ms.Lulu

[Elizzikra]

I love how Kody refused to share the rules because he didn't think that Janelle and Christine wouldn't follow them. That's some grown-up communication right there.

Gabe and Garrison are so much better off without Douchebag Dad.
