This show is losing me.  I do not care a thing about his son's relationship with the widow (and that was stupid for him to go home with her.)   Angela & Ainsley need to move back to where they came from.  You can't go into a nursing home and take alcohol for all of the residents.  How dumb!  You could probably sneak it into a resident's room but to do that in the main room?  No way.  

I really don't need to see Ainsley as she sleeps her way through high school.  I cringe when she discusses her sex life with her dad.  😜

Ugh!  I had high hopes for this show with the first episode, but now, I'm hanging on by a thread.

Can we just get rid of the ex-wife and daughter please, they bring absolutely nothing to either the story or the show. No wonder the daughter is so promiscuous when she she's how her mother acts. Guess the sayings true, like mother, like daughter.

As for the sons relationship with the widow, her dead husband's not even cold in the ground and she's already moved on. Must of been true love.

A filler episode. 😣

A 17yo who’s going to major in philanthropy has never heard about nursing homes? Come on. Next we will see her getting kidnapped by the cartel. At least she’ll be tied into the main story. 

Angela is still pointless. We don’t need to see her bringing alcohol to the nursing home. It’s ridiculous. She doesn’t even bother to visit her injured son at Ariana’s. 🙄

The dumb, ditzy, entitled blondes are bringing this show down. Just concentrate on the landman stuff, give Jon Hamm and Demi Moore some materials to work with. These two are window dressing for the past 7 episodes.

Based on her smile, Rebecca knows she can use Tommy’s son to emotionally coerce Ariana to sign the compensation form. If she’s still reluctant to do so, Rebecca may be shifting the blame (for the rig explosion) to Cooper because he was there. And Ariana will be manipulated to sign it to protect Cooper.

I don’t think that was an actual nursing home. It looked more like assisted living.    Those people weren’t old/ill enough for a nursing home.  Many assisted living facilities have alcohol - happy hour.   But there should have been more activities. And afternoon naps are up to the resident. 
 

where is the widow’s family?  The man has been  dead only a couple weeks at most.  There were 15 people  on that porch the day he died.

I had a relative in assisted living and that particular one had a happy hour, but there's no way they would've let an outsider bring in that much booze and just start partying with the residents.  And if I had to guess, going by the place my relative was in, I'm sure the employee in charge of happy hour would've been made aware by the on-site nurses of any residents who couldn't drink due to medications.  I was more shocked that Angela would even bother to go cheer up people in a nursing home/assisted living facility.

Seriously.  Realistically, one or two of them would still be checking on her, especially if they live in that same neighborhood.  I hate this storyline.

Wow, this show sucks when it involves anything other than the oil company plotline. I could not care less about the soap opera melodrama going on here.

Also, it appears Tommy and Angela have another kid we have not seen yet because Ainsley was clearly wearing her little sister's shorts at the nursing home.

Oh come on. Who knows the romantic legend of Romeo and Juliette is based on a play but doesn't know what the point of the story was? I'm side-eyeing Sheridan for that crap.

Whatever, Cooper must've suffered some brain damage from the beating he got if he's going to stay with Ariana.

I love it when Jon Hamm does his Don Draper thing with a Texas twang.

You'd think everyone in that oil workers' bar would be wise to Angela's act by now. She's not subtle.

I thought Ryder the high school quarterback resembled a taller Chris Pine, minus 20 years or so. The actor looked 25 at least.

Give up, Tommy. Ainsley's determined to get knocked up by a guy who can give her a rich lifestyle because that's how she was raised. Bonus points if he's a star football player.

I suspect they told Jon Hamm upfront this role was going to be light work. Demi Moore's performance is cracking me up because of how they're still not showing closeups of her face.
