Tara Ariano January 22, 2016 Share January 22, 2016 A home is deemed unsafe to live in and a woman is forced to move out because she no longer has enough room for herself. Link to comment

Primetimer January 25, 2016 Share January 25, 2016 Hoarders with mobility problems consider cleaning up their wigs, dead rats, and one maggot-filled toilet. (Soup is not a good snack for you to enjoy during this one.) Read the story Link to comment
auntieminem January 25, 2016 Share January 25, 2016 Flat rat art! Loved it, poor Matt. Oh Dorothy, you are so smart, funny and damaged. So glad Dorothy and David got a clean home and hope it stays that way. 2 Link to comment
LittleIggy January 25, 2016 Share January 25, 2016 I wanted them to mention the flat rat in the concluding blurbs! We need a flat rat update! 3 Link to comment
loki310 January 25, 2016 Share January 25, 2016 I just started watching, but why don't they just tuck Dorothy into bed and just get rid of all her stuff? She's so frail it's not like she's going to out and fill the house up. She can barely move. 2 Link to comment
Grommet January 25, 2016 Share January 25, 2016 I'm surprised no one mentioned that Dorothy was high as a kite, presumably from all the pain meds she must take. I think she'd like to start hoarding again but may be too debilitated, and her husband might be able to stop it from happening. Her daughter and granddaughters were lovely. Doris also had lovely daughters willing to help. I'm glad she finally told them she didn't blame then for being born. Having an angry mother must have been difficult for them. And that poor house! 4 Link to comment
ethalfrida January 25, 2016 Share January 25, 2016 Dang! Was that a rat? it was so big I thought it was a frog! I seriously had jokes about the flat frog. Sorry but that part was just too funny even though the episode, as usual, was sad. 2 Link to comment
funky-rat January 25, 2016 Share January 25, 2016 Maggots in the toilet was a new one for me. **SHUDDER** There was a frog in one of the episodes last night. I was hoping they'd explain how it got there. 2 Link to comment
califred January 25, 2016 Share January 25, 2016 Omg I was eating when they showed the toilet maggots. Thank dog it wasn't pasta. 2 Link to comment

Cherrio January 25, 2016 Share January 25, 2016 You guys are brave. My eyes are closed during at least 40% of the episodes. Did Doris actually say something about a macrame rat design? or was I having a 60's flashback? I don't know why APS was not called by the mandated reporters and Dorothy's house was not condemned. 1 Link to comment

It wasn't Doris. It was Dorothy. She told Matt she wanted to keep the Rat and incorporate it into some macrame and then went off on some bizarre rant that made no sense. 1 Link to comment

She's so frail it's not like she's going to out and fill the house up. She can barely move. Hoarders have been known to commit suicide if their stuff is forcibly taken away from them. It's a mental illness that has to be treated carefully. 3 Link to comment
goodbyeglittergirl January 26, 2016 Share January 26, 2016 I loved Dorothy so much. I wish she had her own show. I know she was high as a kite on pain meds and I don't even care. I would just love to hear her take on just about anything. 3 Link to comment
DB in CMH January 29, 2016 Share January 29, 2016 Who the fuck dresses Dr Robin Zazio? Standing in three feet of garbage and rat shit, yet she's still sporting a sleeveless number it looks like she picked up from H&M on the drive over. 6 Link to comment
JudyObscure January 29, 2016 Share January 29, 2016 They all look like they're going to a picnic instead of into hip-high hazardous waste. Saint Dorothy, the organizer, usually wears very short shorts and their hair is often loose needing constant brushing back with germy hands. The beautiful Dr. Green has toned down her eyeshadow but she's always fully accessorized with scarves and jewelry. I would want to go home and strip down in the garage, burning everything I was wearing. 6 Link to comment
Grommet January 29, 2016 Share January 29, 2016 I noticed that green top of the Zaz as well. Crazy inappropriate. I know they want to look nice for tv but it's distracting. 2 Link to comment
Jordan27 January 31, 2016 Share January 31, 2016 You guys are brave. My eyes are closed during at least 40% of the episodes. Did Doris actually say something about a macrame rat design? or was I having a 60's flashback? It was some nonsense about making the dead rat an artwork. I've noticed that a lot of hoarders have art projects that never seem to get off the ground, literally and figuratively. They also like to say that garbage can be used by students for art....egg cartons, milk jugs, etc....any excuse to keep it. Link to comment
funky-rat February 2, 2016 Share February 2, 2016 According to Matt Paxton on Facebook, she kept that rat - refused to part with it. Link to comment
Jordan27 February 4, 2016 Share February 4, 2016 Maggots in the toilet was a new one for me. **SHUDDER** There was a frog in one of the episodes last night. I was hoping they'd explain how it got there. It was a probably a good deal at a flea market. 1 Link to comment
Mu Shu February 4, 2016 Share February 4, 2016 "You can get rid of that....potato there". "You mean that empty can of Pringles?" Dorothy is a pistol. Doris on the other hand was very slow witted and seemed mean to her children. How do you get maggots in a toilet? Wouldn't they drown in the poo water? Why would a fly Lay eggs in liquid? The rat was huge. The whiskers in that thing were impressive. No wonder Dorothy wanted to make a macrame art installation entitled "you dirty rat" with it. Link to comment
Mrsjumbo February 6, 2016 Share February 6, 2016 Dorothy was a hoot. Both Dorothy's grandaughters & Doris's daughters were beautiful! Link to comment
RCharter February 22, 2016 Share February 22, 2016 Isn't this the description of every episode? Easy job for the blurb writer at A+E! "Woman or Man lives in house full of potential art projects that look suspiciously like junk" According to Matt Paxton on Facebook, she kept that rat - refused to part with it. I used to chat with him on the A&E message page, he was such a neat guy. Happy he is still with the show. I often thought he was a better therapist than the therapist. He has the patience of Job, but with a no-nonsense twist. 2 Link to comment
