Hi, all!

Why did I blow a Sunday evening watching little-girl voice Nicole pine after her husband "Mack-mood"?  She's going to call him "Mack-mood" all the darn season long.  I've a newsflash: their marriage is doomed or will only work with major editing and compromising-and it's not going to be Mackmood.  He's going to be the controlling jerk he was in his season. 

I like both Kobe and Emily more than I did in their original season-which brings Kobe up to adorable and Emily to "Eh, I can tolerate her for now".  They didn't do themselves a favor by having two ( with one on the way?) children before they could have their own place.  I would love my hypothetical grandchildren, but still don't want them in my basement.

It's only episode 1 and I'm FF through Gino and Jasmine-but not fast enough to miss toe-sucking, blue-pill popping Gino.  And she's talking a baby?  She's keeping her supposed infertility a secret (bad move), but how do they know the infertility was on Gino's ex, and not him?  How old is Jasmine anyway-her fertility will decline through her 30's.  

Rob and Sophie-I don't understand what they're fighting about.  They talk over one another and neither is listening to the other in the rush to be right.  Presumably they don't have a practical outhouse in Austin but the relocation only points out their differences: she's trying to sound rich and posh; he's a cheat. 

How the hell can you marry somebody if you don't trust them?  Rewind that, how can you love someone you don't trust?  Trust is the rock of a relationship.  

And I'm calling it here, folks.  Sophie has a fling with her friend in 3..2..1.  That's going to come out in the wash of yet another massive fight.

How much do you want to bet that even with Emily being a 'SAHM' the grandparents are doing more than 50% of the childcare? 

I had forgotten about Sophie being bisexual until RTK (lol) brought it up, but  the whole let's lay down together and bare our souls thing does scream hookup impending.

Who selected these boring couples?  It seems like Gino and Jasmine have been in the last 4 seasons aired!  Rob and the English girl are boring.  Mackmood and the crazy girl are boring. Kobe and the girl from Kansas are boring, although I am interested in meeting Kobe’s family and their reaction to the wife.  
 

At least Angela and Ed will bring some excitement whenever they show up.

A few shows ago (before the 90?) gino humble bragged he had 600k saved...now he can't afford 5k for a lawyer or even a night at a decent hotel for the honeymoon? Sugarbabies and strippers be expensive!!

Mackmood is a domineering asshole and his personality won't change based on his location. He still expects you'll dress up like a seal to go to the pool.

Sophie thinks not talking to Rob for a couple of months means he's used that time to reflect and work on himself😅 girl, he's been out prowling for sympathy and compliments from college girls on 6th street 

Kobe's family will surely wonder what he sees in the spoiled, bossy, lazy Emily. He's a nice guy, probably raised by nice people, and I think they'll embrace her and keep any negative opinions on the down low. 

Liz"s whimsical wedding dress is made for a fairy tale wedding...Beauty and The Troll? Snow white and the evil dwarf? The hunchback of circuses past (lives)?

I remember hearing Sophie muse on her wedding day, "Oh well, if it doesn't work out, we'll just get a divorce", and thinking there's a marriage that's gonna last. 😁

The Pillow Talk party was almost fun to watch...until they opened the door and let in Puddle'O'Slime and Ball'O'Sludge. 

Slime was nowhere NEAR as nauseatingly disgusting as Sludge. WHY did Sludge have to plant it's warty toad azz down right in the middle of the sofa ??

Disinfecting my TV now.

Who are these people? (I didn’t watch.)

Slime Christian, who pretended to care for autistic trans Chloe. Not kind to do that to someone who is already emotionally fragile.

Sludge Danielle, the overweight scammer who married Mohamed from Tunisia.  Her constant shrieking and crying and begging during her season was a Master Class for Jasmine.

where did the line come from ?????
