S00.E01: Couples Therapy Reunion

[Meredith Quill]

Special: Part 1

While I appreciated Catelyn's zing to Farrah about Farrah not needing money because she sold her vagina, technically it wasn't her vagina she sold.

As tacky as it may have been, when Nik asked Doug if the reason he was willing to break it off with Courtney (during her stray & play period) was because she turned 18, I laughed. No matter what age she is, or what true love Dortney tries to sell, I still find that relationship repellant & I feel wrong even using the word relationship.

I was impressed at Doug's ability to remain measured and calm in the midst of so much abuse by others, especially Jojo.

[Me Too]

I have to agree with Jen about one thing - Of all the couples I have seen on this show (season 2 and 3 - I missed season 1), for whatever reason, I seem to be pulling for Shane and Nik the most. 

 

Why did they bring Farrah back?  She wasn't a couple during her season and she still isn't a couple.  Last time I checked, the name of this show is Couples Therapy.

Ratings? I agree though, I don't need an update on Farrah's non-relationship.

I was amused to see Farrah's ugly cry again. Little things bring me joy.

I'm confused. Shayne said she got a full hysterectomy, then said they kept her "baby makers", meaning ovaries and that they are having another baby.

Huh?

Did she mean they saved her eggs and are using a surrogate? I had a full hysterectomy because of cancer and they didn't save any "baby makers".

Thankfully I was older and done having kids.

I'm confused.

[DangerousMinds]

I just had a hysterectomy, too, but they didn't remove my ovaries. When both the uterus and ovaries/fallopian tubes are removed, it's called an oopherectomy. I assumed Shawn had just her uterus removed, so her eggs can still be retrieved and embryos created for a surrogate to carry.

[bref]

And apparently that's what happened. 

[Maharincess]

Thanks for the explanation. They took everything out of me. I was done using it though.

I was confused because at first she said the Dr told her she could never have another baby.

I'm not a violent person but I'd have loved to see Tiny(?) beat the crap out of Farrah. She's the rudest most disrespectful person I've ever seen so her calling people disrespectful pissed me off.

I loved what Catelynn said to her about not needing the money.

It's obvious that Farrah was brought in for drama.  The relationship was fake. Everyone knew that, except for Dr. Jenn.  So excited for Shayne and Nik, For some reason, they're the couple I'm pulling for. Doug and Courtney are gross. I hope Jojo gets whatever help he needs with his addiction.

Re: Farrah - Dr. Jenn, and Caitlin, and everyone else, were right in saying that she talks out of two sides of her mouth. She's in the sex industry to make money, and when she feels defensive about it, she calls it "liberating." But then the other half of the time, she denies everything about it, and says it's "in the past," and then cries and cries because of her shame. It's all because she's so fake. If she took a flag and planted it somewhere, she'd make more sense. But instead she just blows with the wind, and sounds like an idiot. Not to mention a liar.

And p.s. Farrah - Stop saying you do porn to provide for your daughter. There are a lot of other ways to make a living.

I still get a strong gay vibe from Tyler. If he is gay, I really hope he comes to grips with it before getting married. 

 

Farrah can get off my TV. I do not understand why Dr Jenn gives her such a wide berth to spin her nonsense.

Because she's complicit in the deception. She either knew that Farrah and her pretend bf were not a real couple from the start, or she found out once the guy got cold feet, and then was part of the decision in letting Farrah participate solo, concocting the whole "why do so many people abandon me?" fake b.s.

The removal of the uterus is called hysterectomy.  The removal of ovaries is oophorectomy.  The removal of fallopian tubes is salpingectomy.  Former recovery room nurse here.
