I have often thought that Kody was eventually going to get tired of leaving his man-parts in Robyn's purse every time he steps out of the house Robyn lets him off his leash. Although Meri is a ginormous PITA, it would be lovely poetic justice if Kody went running back to Meri, leaving Robyn to stew in her own eye boogers and wondering how her dark and mighty powers failed her.

Everything we see between Meri and Kody appears to be misery and discontent. Kody openly seems to detest Meri. They've both pretty much said their marriage is over and Kody has said he wasn't sure he'd marry her again and that it was a mistake. I don't know many women who would "stay" knowing this. And even if they did try to make it work (you know, a tv show), Meri is so passive aggressive and demanding that it's going to make it hell for everyone else (more material for hate-watching). It feels like this is an announcement to get people to watch the upcoming season. Regardless of what this announcement shows, I remember seeing the hate towards Meri in Kody's recessed, beady caveman eyes. There's no love there.

This is really the whole bunch of them. Christine's over the top cheerleader of polygamy. You monogamists just can't understand how the joys of polygamy work!! She keeps herself at this unsustainable high to suck up to her part time husband while keeping the delusion going through her "rose colored glasses".

She isn't emotionally self aware enough to process what is actually going on around her making her miserable. She calls herself an emotional eater...but tries to deny actually having the emotions that lead her to disengage. Robyn...who says she is there for "the family" but is the most master of all manipulators. She thinks that since they are all "believers" that somehow entering the family and learning how to communicate with Kody (better than any of the others) means that she can get them to be the family she supposedly saw in Lehi in the beginning. So a 10 month "courtship" doesn't even open up a dialogue about how they have routinely moved (often multiple times in a year) and they happen to live in a house that is too small for them... So. What was the original plan? In 10 months they never discussed the after marriage living arrangements and future children?? 🙄 Robyn once said that SHE was there because of who they were in the Lehi house and that SHE wasn't getting what she signed up for. I guess I am most shocked by the fact that they think everyone who watches is someone who just loves them and somehow doesn't see how bloody miserable they all are. AND...if Meri is so damn happy that she feels the need to post this affirmation publicly...WHY does she allow herself to be portrayed on their "family business" television show as a tossed aside wife. THEY put this negativity out there for all to see. THEY make it look like they are unhappy. Kody has made it clear that he takes no ownership in the emotional or mental happiness of his wives. He is just a mis-understood cat herding fireman. Woah is he...the poor polygamist man with four nagging women and the need to "get away from you all".

Count me in as a hate watching rubbernecker. Originally I started watching in the hopes of learning about a different lifestyle and how it could possibly work. My main concern was what happened to the excess males, given a birth ratio of roughly 50/50. I would think that polygamy would be more attractive to males than females. Are the young females really brainwashed to believe that this will bring them salvation? For a time I belonged to a FB site run by polygamists and had hoped to find the answer there. Twice over a period of time I asked the administrator of the site, who had been an active polygamist and was hoping to resume the life, how this imbalance worked out. My queries were dismissed with the statement--- "it doesn't seem to be a problem". I guess this account for the "Lost Boys" I have read about but I think this only happens now in the isolated cults where the kids are never exposed to life outside their own tight circle. If I could say anything positive about the Brown's, it would be that they permitted public education for their kids, giving them the opportunity to see a broader perspective. 11 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/3427-meri-brown-and-her-wet-bar-of-tears/page/226/#findComment-6489040

Teafortwo December 8, 2020 Share December 8, 2020 I don't really "hate watch" but I am fascinated by the train wreck aspect. Initially, I enjoyed watching because I thought the interactions between the adults and the kids were interesting (and among the 5 adults). I was especially impressed by Logan, as most of us were. I admired the way the family seemed to accept the growth of their children away from "the lifestyle" of polygamy. That all changed with the catfish. The long slog of episodes devoted to that situation, the deflections and refusals to confront what had actually happened and the failure to admit that it foregrounded the dark side of polygamy. If Kody had admitted to emotionally abandoning Meri (and Christine, for that matter); if Meri had admitted to being sad, lonely and unloved, that would have been interesting (and perhaps cathartic for all of them). After that the show really became a tedious slog. And as the kids departed one by one, there was no longer much of interest from that angle. We were left with 5 adults who really have nothing much to offer to each other or to an audience. I still watch, hoping for some honesty, and some sort of story other than moving, planning a move, moving again, buying, moving etc. 20 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/3427-meri-brown-and-her-wet-bar-of-tears/page/226/#findComment-6489456
Rabbit Hutch December 8, 2020 Share December 8, 2020 11 hours ago, TurtlePower said: I don't know, either. Everything we see between Meri and Kody appears to be misery and discontent. Kody openly seems to detest Meri. They've both pretty much said their marriage is over and Kody has said he wasn't sure he'd marry her again and that it was a mistake. I don't know many women who would "stay" knowing this. And even if they did try to make it work (you know, a tv show), Meri is so passive aggressive and demanding that it's going to make it hell for everyone else (more material for hate-watching). It feels like this is an announcement to get people to watch the upcoming season. Regardless of what this announcement shows, I remember seeing the hate towards Meri in Kody's recessed, beady caveman eyes. There's no love there. Just a contract to film another season. All I know is that if my DH said this about our relationship it would not only embarrass me, it would break my heart into two jagged pieces. Even if he only said it for the ratings I don't think I would handle it well. Either Meri is too thick in the head to get it or she is so desperate to belong to a group, any group, that she's willing to take this much punishment to stay, even if it's just on the fringes. Even if its for a paycheck I think I would have still been outta there after that episode, that was so bad, and on national t.v. 13 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/3427-meri-brown-and-her-wet-bar-of-tears/page/226/#findComment-6489520
DakotaJustice December 8, 2020 Share December 8, 2020 2 hours ago, Just Wondering said: I’m wondering if Kody is now treating Meri better in order to get more work/cash ought of her, and I’m wondering if Meri is treating Kody better so he will pull her through that veil. But at the end of it all, Meri just told us what we already knew - none of this is real. Ten to one he's not getting a cent of the money she "earns" on her own. Not one cent. Most of her extra money probably gets sunk into the B&B. No profits this year and it looks like three of the four bedrooms are occupied (by Meri, Mariah, Audrey and Meri's mom) right now. 14 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/3427-meri-brown-and-her-wet-bar-of-tears/page/226/#findComment-6489632

xwordfanatik December 9, 2020 Share December 9, 2020 So, she gets to have success selling crap clothes to sycophants, while a huge number of 'boss babes' can't sell any said crap clothes.

itsadryheat December 9, 2020 Share December 9, 2020 With all the things, objects, art, nature available in the world and universe, why is her choice to grace her social media with a continuing stream of her fake face. She should just sell autograph photos . . . or packs of her face like baseball cards. Or maybe a montage of her favorite filtered face as a screensaver for her culty fans. Instead of the crappy Lizzies logo, just use her face on the rice crispie treat label. Come on Meri, if you are so enamored with sharing your mug, let loose. The possibilities are endless. 11 1 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/3427-meri-brown-and-her-wet-bar-of-tears/page/226/#findComment-6492147
