S05.E01: Joy's Wedding/S05.E02: Triple Date Night

[bigskygirl]

Quote

In the season premiere, Joy and Austin's wedding day finally arrives; and another Duggar reveals a surprise that leaves the guests in shock.

[Sew Sumi]

Oh, so we get the proposal before even seeing the courtship? Then next week, go back to February for the birth of Henry? So much for continuity, show.

eta: It's even worse. They go back to NOVEMBER to celebrate Spud's birthday.

"Finally arrives." She was 19. There is no "finally." 

[Jeanne222]

I can't believe I'm all IN for another season of the Duggers!  I think I want to marry a Dugger.  Never have to work again.  Just film maybe three or four weeks a couple times a year.  I wonder if TLC offers Insurance and 401K plans!

[Sew Sumi]

Sadly, reality show "stars" are considered contract employees, and as such, have to find their own insurance and retirement savings plans. Why else does Derelict have a DONATE!!!! button on his website?

No all day marathon.  Little promotions.  Using a little people family as a lead in. The beginning of the end?

And to make matters worse for my Dish guide it just says TCL programming 9-11 pm. Ouch!

I JUST came here to post that!  That is not good at all.  My DVR didn't pick it up to record with no information. 

Joy better kick it up a notch or the Duggs are history. 

[auntieminem]

I am still watching this boring show.  What is wrong with me? 

[Annb67]

Sweet Jesus. Zzzzzzzz.....two hours of this?

[Marigold]

I'm recording but caught a few minutes.  

That is a pretty non-side side hug.  Austin is getting a lot of boobage with their style of side hugs!!! 

[Chicklet]

Her hair is a disaster and is their "no honey how do you want my hair"? Ugh.

And she's been waiting for this forever? Puleeze.

[Annb67]

Oh TLC you do have a sense of humor. First commercial is for the movie Rough Night....???

I am currently watching, but I had to pipe in and say at least Joy doesn't look completely miserable and anxious.

The way she is smiling at Austin is genuine, and yes I noticed their side embrace which looked warm and natural. 

Her hairstyle didn't hold up well for pictures, this is a rare occasion where the guys looked more pulled together than the girls.

Then he inspects it and says "Are you not doing a braid?" Really? Yeah Austin I'm going to braid your pubes. Sorry....off to the prayer closet. I know the way....

[Chicklet]

I feel so bereft that we didn't get to see her try on 50 ugly dresses. And the bridesmaids dresses just shriek of "whatever, I don't care what they wear".

[Annb67]

Michelle's squeaking and screaching....oy vey

[Fostersmom]

Holy crap Joy, it's your fucking wedding day. You shouldn't be asking him if you should wear your veil or not. I do like her barking orders to get them all downstairs though. 

[ChiCricket]

Wow..Joy must have been very nervous before hand. The bags under her eyes made it look like she hasn't slept in a week.

Thanks y'all! I tried. I really did. Caught the scene regarding Joy, Austin, and Joy's hair. I can't. Switched over to Fox News. Yes, I did. Looking forward to the snark! ???

[pinkelephant3]

Time out! Is there hay scattered down the asiles?!

[Chicklet]

Oh god the music, kill me now. At first I thought it was a bullfight not a wedding.

[Fostersmom]

Why are they playing music better suited for a horse race? What the hell? 

[VioletNevermind]

Wow, a trumpet serenade as the bride walks down the aisle?!  That's . . . different. 

[ms.o]

Ok men crying tends to make me gag, but Austin is kind of winning me over here. 

Joy barking orders is giving me life 

[Chicklet]

Why yes yes it is hay. Guess it was a bullfight scheduled for the church at first and they forgot to cancel that before the wedding.

Because she's a mare.

[pinkelephant3]

Ummm what is JD doing?! Since when was he a conductor?

[Chicklet]

lol what the hell is JD doing with his arm? Dippiest wedding ever and that's saying something.

[Fostersmom]

That explains the stalks of hay then. Nothing will explain what the hell's going on at this wedding though. This is so bizarre. Even for a Duggar wedding.

I need a drink. Notice the minister said the covenant can only be broken when someone dies. He can beat the shit out of you but hey stick around. Dear joy and Austin STOP WHISPERING!!! And the circle of prayer and tears. Is this a memorial?

[VioletNevermind]

I've been watching this shitshow from day one (i.e. the matching prairie dresses, the tiny, over-stuffed house), but somehow, the fact that Joy is only 19-years-old escaped me.  As she's reciting her vows, she sounds like my 16-year-old daughter, dutifully reading a passage from a school book.  She's not ready to get married either.

19.  Good God. 

[Chicklet]

Whoever did the choreography for this production needs to be fired. As well as whoever did the music.

[JennyMominFL]

What is wrong with me. Why am I tearing up at watching Joy Duggar become Ofaustin?

[woodscommaelle]

Jill has learned a new word: chill. What's his name is probably always telling her to chill out.

Joy keeps pissing me off. 

There was an entire row filled with total tackiness.

Rinse. Wash. Repeat. Same old shit.

Did NOT like that walk-down-the- aisle song.

Edited June 13, 2017 by woodscommaelle

[Fostersmom]

TLC is just going out of their way to make them look like total fools now, right? That's the only reason I can think of for the whispered conversations. And Joy, bless her heart, really isn't smart, is she. Girl is just dim. 

[Chicklet]

Of course she is dim, she's a Duggar. Find me a smart one, I do hold out hope for Jennifer.

Who the hell is going to clean that church??

Bachelor to the rapture...my new favorite quote

[VioletNevermind]

What does a 19-year-old kid do when she and her squeeze are pronounced husband and wife?  She yells, "WHOOOOO!!!" and gallops off down the aisle with a fist pump.  Jesus, take the fucking wheel.

[JennyMominFL]

Bachelor to the Rapture? WTF?

[scenicbyway]

Joy's been waiting for this day forever?  I'm assuming so she won't have to continue living at the compound.  I do like that Joy is a tomboy, but why not just get married outside or at his family's campground?  Instead the spread hay everywhere and then have confetti pop after the bride and groom leave?

Just now, JennyMominFL said:

Poor guy, he's given up at 28?

[Fostersmom]

That church is probably still finding confetti. I'm an atheist, but confetti is truly of the devil.

Jesus wont even take the wheel. Jesus OUT!

[scenicbyway]

Why are they running out of their reception? Joy said they couldn't stay long and they hadn't even cut the cake yet?!

[GeeGolly]

Oy Vey.

[pinkelephant3]

She's plain and simple...Jessa is a bitch

[Chicklet]

This family is a freakshow, plain and simple. Hey just like Joy.

[Annb67]

So joy wants to wear dresses because Austin likes her in dresses...christ on a cracker!! Dear Jessa 3 billion women have been pregnant and felt like you. We don't care. Shut up.

[EarlGreyTea]

Cindy is a total babe. What's she doing with these rubes??? She's way out of Michelle's league.

What I would give to cut off all that excess hair or at least pull it back from all of the wedding party's faces. The scraggly hair is NAGL.
