i wonder what became of the painfully blonde one. 

Isn't that Tammy and Lou's youngest daughter, Lindsey? I remember she was a bit dim and confused "specific" with "Pacific" and other sundry vocab cock-ups. Here's a pic of her from 

a few years ago -- not quite so platinum but seriously over-tanned.

I am watching some of the older seasons - Seeing Lynne and Frank and their kids is so crazy.  They really had no parenting instincts and did not discipline their kids at all.  I don't even mean you have to be a hard ass or a drill sergeant but do something!  There was this one scene where they told Alexis to be home at a certain time and she wasn't.  So they called her and she was like I am out, not coming home.  She named the location where she was, and they just sit there like Oh gee I hope she comes home, I guess we can't get her to listen to us.   So they sit there and look confused, text her some more.  I would get up, drive down there to where she said she was and get her.  They were like Oh hmm what now.  What a pair of dum dums!  Knowing now what happened to their kids it's really weird to look back at this.  Then they got evicted, and Lynne left Frank.  I really wonder about the two of them.  What a strange couple of people.

With you on the parenting skills. I used to yell at the tv when they did that. Parenting went across family lines with my mom. When her sister called her one night to ask if my cousin was there, and she wasn't, they found out where she was and my mom drug her out of a hotel room and brought her to our house. Her mom was a lot like the Curtains and my mom was the enforcer. Lucky me.

Just reading page 8, but reading of the Curtins and the lack of control over Alexa......

So into the future, Alexa is busted multiple times for drugs, becomes a porn actress, and yet is also assaulted by a OC Sheriff and awarded damages.

  Oh, also accused of elder-abuse by her grandmother (https://tasteofreality.com/the-real-kids-of-orange-county/)

Lynne, meanwhile is a celebrity hyra-facial specialist, who in the last year has worked on Gina and Emily.

I may not like Alexa or agree with her choices, but after reading the article, it seems pretty clear to me (and to the jury) that she was indeed assaulted by that officer.  It doesn't matter if you're a porn star, stripper, or choir girl, you can still be assaulted.  Creeps like that guy pick on girls who have what some may consider sketchy backgrounds for the exact reason that they will not be readily believed.  This guy is a slimeball and deserves to be outted.  I am grateful to Alexa that she brought the case against him because it ended up with him being removed from the force, which gave him a position of power to take advantage of people.  I think she was entitled to a settlement.  I hope she uses it to get an education and get her life together.

I wonder whatever happened to the “Teen Whisperer” they hired for a couple of episodes. Is she still a “Teen Whisperer”?

Thanks for the one free pass! I think the brunette in that pic is Jeana Keough's daughter Kara who ended up marrying a pro baseball player. She landed a good one. Has kids with him. Hope it all works out for them

I am pretty sure Kara wanted nothing to do with the OC Angels, plus, I think was too old and too flat-chested for Pervy Lou and his friend's tastes. I think the brunette was involved in the catfight over Pervy Lou.

No, both Briana & Kara were part of OC Angels in the beginning.  They were at the infamous fight at the photo shoot. 

Thankfully, she grew up.  Married a former NFL player, Kyle Bosworth, and they have an adorable daughter.

I love how it's all going down and Briana just keeps doing her makeup.  I guess she's used to ignoring screeching drama with Vicki as her mom.

Had car troubles over the weekend, so binged Season 1 which I'd never watched before. Wow! This show was night and day from its current incarnation! Definitely prefer the old format.

Interesting that there was little interaction between the women until midway through the season. It was just as much about the families as the wives themselves. And despite the drama, the tone is fairly low-key. No shrieking hysterics. So refreshing.

Vicki was actually somewhat likeable, although some warning signs were definitely there ("Called it! I called it!" when she heard about Jo and Slade ending their engagement. And stirring the pot between Lauri and Jo at the reunion). I also saw the first couple of season 2 eps and saw FAMILY VAN in all its glory. There you are, Vicki.

Slade was almost likeable at times as well, though it was clear he took "stay at home mom" literally. And was definitely controlling. But he actually had career aspirations at one point -- crazy! And he kind of had a point about Jo. Liked Jo a little less than I thought I would. She clearly didn't have much interesting in being a stepmom, and was a bit of a brat in how she handled the breakup. Not that he was much better, especially the bit of pettiness with him taking the license plate off the car and her driving off anyways. Given how he turned out though, she dodged one hell of a bullet.

LOTS of focus on the husbands and kids, especially Slade, and Shane Keough who was practically a full-time cast member. And speaking of the Keough's, Colton's the only one I'd tolerate for more than 5 seconds. But sheesh, Shane and Kara were something else. Jeana was pretty much checked out of dealing with their behavior.

Felt awful watching Lauri's family, knowing what the future would hold. Back then, there was a modicum of hope for Josh, particularly with how he clearly adored his little sister. So sad how life unfolded for them.

Kimberly was the one front and center holding the orange in the credits I think, but given the screentime it seemed like it should have been Shane and Slade there instead.

Not only did she stay, break up, come back, and break up again - then she did a sleazy reality show with him called "Date My Ex".

I am actually embarrassed to know this.

Bwahaha! Date My Ex. I had almost forgot about Slate parading around in his man scarves and knit hats. 

Slade has always set off a million warning bells for me. There something off about the way he interacts with the world. I never bought that he actually connected to anyone or anything very deeply. It was all just a part of his image. Did he like anything about Joe or just feel like a hot girlfriend was part of his image? Did he like his house or car or stupid man scarves? Was it all just a series of things he was supposed to have to show how great he was? Slade feels like someone with almost no sense of self other than self preservation. I always got the same vibe from Lauri. Not that they were lying exactly, but that they would be whoever they needed to be if it meant money. Even the way both of them parented seemed very performative to me. Like mimicking how other people care about their families instead of actually caring. 

I was sort of sad Slade and Lauri broke up so soon. Soulless con artists in love could have been an interesting story, but alas. Someone needs a job for a con to work and it ain’t going to be either of them.

The first season was so good.  I miss that.  I want that back.

Josh was so horribly sad, his mom was washing her hands of him because he couldn't interfere with her plans to bag her money, err George.  He knew he was being pushed away, and he said it to her, and she pretended like she was doing it all for his own good or something,  It was heartbreaking.

OMG his scarves and knit hats!!!

Yeah there's something very off about him.  I thought maybe he wasn't into women, he was always so phony and weird.  I can't figure him out.

Just finished an episode in Season 1 where Lauri and Vicki go to an insurance conference in New Orleans with Vicki’s sister. Vicki and sister stay in a swanky hotel but they make Lauri pay her way so she has to stay in a sleazy motel. Vicki was so bitchy. Makes sense that Lauri would come back and try to serve up some karma. 

Love the episode where the daughters go to Miami. Tammy’s daughters are freaking out about money but then buy tattoo’s.

Watching season 5 right now. Wow, Lynn and Frank Curtin were the most ineffectual parents, even their girls admitted to testing their parents to see if there were any boundaries.

Gretchen was right to be worried about Alexa, she was a troubled girl. However, Lynn thought she could be a friend and a mother and she was neither.

The whole thing makes be sad since Alexa, as an adult, has made many questionable life choices (And also bad things happen to her). 😢

Yeah, he was gross, as were his friends with whom he leered at the OC Angels. Wasn't there a scene where he was choosing the "head angel" and one kinda intimated exchanging sexual favors for the position?

Am I remembering correctly that Lou didn't have a will, so the mail order bride got everything when he died?

And then refused to give the girls one red cent.  

I need to rewatch the older seasons because that shit was gold.

Yeah, Pervey Lou didn't have a will, so the daughter got nothing, but I remember the daughter whining about the mail order bride forbidding him from giving her money or something after they got married but while he was still alive. If memory serves, those two women hated each other. Crap, I need to watch these again!

Oh, Lou and “the Thai wife”?  I was uncomfortable every time Meghan mentioned that.  It sounded vaguely xenophobic or something.  If Lou left all of his inheritance to his wife and his kids were left with nothing, the person to be mad at is Lou (Lou’s ghost?), not the Thai wife.  What is the Thai wife supposed to do, cut Lou’s out of control, tongue-ringed adult daughter a huge check for being a hostile bitch?  

As tacky as Lindsey (Tammi’s other daughter) looked, she at least seemed to exhibit a little bit of kindness.  Meghan was so jaded.

I don't think he did, either, which is why it all went to the mail order wife since she was his legal next of kin.  

I remember Tammy describing the events whilst she was driving her car (with that syrupy music they normally save for the OC season finales) about Lindsay calling her to tell her Lou had died or was dying, 911 was on the way, and Tammy thinking at first Lindsay was just being overly dramatic.  I seem to remember that's when she talked about the mail order wife inheriting everything by legal default, and not sharing with the girls.  

I wonder what happened to the mail order bride.  From the impression I was under, she, Tammy, and the girls were probably all left high and dry after the debts were settled.
