This season shocked me as I went from disliking Gina quite a bit to actually liking her this season. And more often than not, I found her to be the voice of reason at times, and one of the more mature voices.

 

Gina was the only one who was self-aware enough in real time to self-correct her behavior during the season. She started out bad, but managed to flip to voice of reason. That’s why I disliked her playing into the other women’s game against Katie at the reunion; I was “No Gina! You were doing so good!”

This franchise is officially unwatchable. Who would think that the person who got into a DUI right after the last OC reunion would come out looking the best? I don't like that she flees all the time, but at least she was in control. The nasty nasty ladies: Heather, Tamra, and Emily are beyond the pale. Innocence project Emily hammering poor Katie, over what was clearly a sad time in her life made me hate her. Condescending Heather "I am still talking...." with the shriveled-up mug showing every line and frown effects over the years. Tamra was revealed as having the highest salary this week with Shannon just under her salary. This pissed me off too. She is being rewarded for being so cruel, when she herself is a mean drunk. Without major changes for next season I am out.

 

It truly is. I stopped watching on Thursdays, intending to catch up later, but honestly, I really don’t give a damn anymore. I just happened to be up way early this morning and caught the reunion. Although I’ve not been following, I was still able to understand what was going on because it’s the same old shit, lather rinse repeat.

I’m here for the reruns of the early seasons. But the past couple years, especially with Tamra and Heather and their toadies Emily and Gina, have made my head hurt. I think there comes a point when a franchise reaches the end of the road. I’ve read that about NY and NJ. OC may be there too.

Yanno, I watch these shows for entertainment. Nothing entertaining about this anymore.

Tamra can take her faux concern about Shannon and shove it. Heather can continue to eat Shannon’s lemons, given the way she puckers up. (Heather needs a face consult with Terry, too…if I’m going to be a bitch here, I’m going all the way.)

I think Jenn knows exactly who Ryan is and doesn't care.  She's made her choice

She needs a man in her life, no matter what, which does not surprise me. Looking for the daddy figure.

These are my friends wiho are a couple who inherited extreme wealth - like $100 million or so.

They both worked - she has an MBA and he has a law degree but at a certain point it made no sense for her to continue to work when she could be a full time parent. She did a lot of community service type things as well as living her best life.

Her husband continued to work but he was also much more able to pursue his passions for writing without worrying about income stream. 

This is the life I want. Only I want a small patch of land where I can raise goats and chickens. 😄

Makes you question how deep Emily's involvement is with the Innocence Project, that she finds it so inconceivable the police might get something wrong. 

Especially considering most of the clients the Innocence Project helps.

She’s doing it for show…she’s got a LAW DEGREE, after all.

I’ve come to really dislike the reunions. Not sure why I still watch them.
Emily has been way too into Jenns finances and now Ryan’s doings. I love that Jenn called her out about the in laws supporting her.  

 

Same here. I started watching 90 day fiance to avoid the reunion. It's always just a bunch of screaming and yelling. Nothing is resolved
