Of course I want our beloved show to return- but they are so far behind real time it’s like we discussed it already.

We should just copy and paste our posts from the various threads when all of this stuff happened in real time.

Brianna PURPOSELY tells Leah that she is banging Javi and spreading her cheeks for him knowing Leah would run to Kail and spill the tea.

Nathan's mom reveals the TRUTH of what we already suspected about poor little Feed Me Kaiser.

Adam is arrested for the 4,899th time. Chelsea WILL use this to go to court.

I can’t stomach Briana. I still can’t believe they didn’t fire Jenelle but I want to see how that was played out at TheLand.

Haven't watched yet (ETA maybe because it hasn't been shown yet), but from the photo posted--wow!  Chelsea has lost a *lot* of weight!  I didn't recognize her, had to read the caption.

About Kaiser:  I suspected neglect at least, just from what we saw on tv.  He was mostly ignored, and a couple of times I saw UBT be rough in handling him.  And as always, if this is what is shown, imagine what's going on that we don't see.  I wonder about MTV's liability here, too.  I know they are not mandatory reporters, but one would think any human being would mention how the kid was being treated to someone further up the chain of command, and *that* person should feel an obligation to report.  I had an uneasy feeling about him, and I'm really glad Nathan's mom is having this investigated.  I am sure he would be better off with his grandmother than with Jenelle, and I suspect secretly Jenelle would be relieved to be rid of him.  Poor little kid.  It's not his fault his birth parents, and his step-parent, are all such assholes.

I've commented on this before, but it's been a while...I'm not a betting woman, but I'm willing to wager that after the Amber abuse incident, MTV and the TM production company got so much heat that they now intentionally leave anything that's disturbing/criminal on the cutting room floor. They're "documentarians" but also "producers" trying to balance keeping their talent happy and not creating undue legal complications for any parties. 

It makes sense that we see secondary and tertiary characters doing more illegal things than the moms themselves. They don't care that much about the likes of Ryan and Adam and David. 

There was also that now deleted reddit AMA with the camera man talking about why he quit and, in particular, Leah's messy messy house.

Janelle has meth face in that picture! Also, glasses don't make everyone look smart.

Yes...I have adult acne myself...but this has to be meth, right? RIGHT? That would explain so much (like following other drivers home after they cut you off and threatening them with guns...while your kids are in the car).

Chelsea is so beautiful.  She's really grown into her looks.  I'm jealous of how thin she is so soon after having a baby!

[druzy]

[BitterApple]

Nice scabby meth-face you got going on there, Jenelle.

[FairyDusted]

She looks just like Tyler's sister when they were all strung out in the house with no electricity. No matter. They cooked drugs up though!

[crazychicken]

@druzy Lol MTV is throwing shade at UBT listing him as husband/wife and after Barb and Nathan.

Jenelle's working hard on her relationship with Jace this Season on Teen Mom 2-lol

In other words, Jenelle is trying to look like she gives a crap about Jace instead of just wanting to stick it to Barb. We see you, Jenelle.

Wow all the other girls have makeup on and Jenelle looks like methed out mf. Damn. She looks like Linda Blair in the Exorcist.

I have adult (hormonal) acne and this....does not look like that.  

Just look at the "mom of" pictures of the kids.  There's a drastic difference in the happy faces of Chelsea's kids vs. Jenelle's assortment of soulmate souvenir kids.

LOL @ soulmate souvenir kids! Good one!

Also, Jenelle never works hard at anything other than bagging her soulmate du jour.

Yes, and they are also Kail's little money bags.

Kail's are also an assortment of benefit kids....(and Lux).

Between the promos indicating we're going to see lots of Brianna/Javi/Kail, and Jenelle working on improving her relationship with Jace - I don't want to watch. Although I would like to see the famous balloon footage, I imagine that will be excerpted somewhere . . . .  If you want to show me Kail & Leah & Chelsea, ok - I'm actually interested in how all three are faring - but I don't want to see anything of Brianna (or Javi) at all, and I only want to see Jenelle in a package explaining why she - and not just David - have been kicked off the show.  

[Maharincess]

I've actually decided I am going to watch the new season. I haven't watched in a few years but because of you guys I'm going back in. I love snarking with you guys too much so at risk of my blood pressure, I'm going to watch.

I haven't been keeping up w/this show lately, got tired of their diva behavior. If you're gonna walk off and kick producers out everytime there's something you don't like going on, then you're not doing your job and if you can't do your job of entertaining me, then I'm not gonna help your show bring in the ratings. 

[Mkay]

Tonight’s the night. I look forward to talking about it with y’all.  I kinda dread giving them ratings.

We are a small group. We don't even make a dent in the ratings. One of us choosing not to watch doesn't make a difference. :-) 

Countdown to watching the shit that we already snarked on in real time. lol

but does she really need to be so fucking *extra* every time she opens her mouth?

I feel like I'm watching Bravo HoWi getting ready to go to dinner with Leah and Brianna getting ready for the VMA's. Glam squads on call!

These girls are going to need a Groupon Tutorial when the Teen Mom franchise is cancelled. Reality is going to hit them hard.

They will also need a tutorial on Hotwire.com. Those suites won't pay for themselves.

I have stopped too. I just check in on the threads here. I stopped with not watching the last few episodes of TM OG and I am cured. Lol. I have no plans to watch TM 2 either. Yea me (and you). ?

[druzy]

Now we have another Ryan to confuse us!

Hey Nathan, I don't care if I had charges pending against me, I would go to court and fight for my child who most likely is being abused.

[Chickabiddy]

Building on a phrase from the immortal Dolly Parton to describe Brianna, Brittany, and Leah getting ready for the VMAs.

It takes  a lot of time, money, and make up/hair people to look that cheap. Schnikies.

And what is up with Kail’s face? Is that bloat from pregnancy, fillers, alcohol....or all three? Between the hair, clothes and  bloat, she looks rode hard and put up wet. Yikes!  I know 40 somethings who look younger and more vibrant. 

[druzy]

Remember when Kanal went into Javi's house and stole the tickets to Disneyland and a Twitter war ensued. Is this the timeline they are showing or was that last season?

[druzy]

Why is Biana (I don't know how she spells her name) hitting her infant daughter with a towel? I get that it may be cute but she was doing it dismissively and it looked like she didn't want to deal with her. Okay- I'm nitpicking.

I noticed that too. The baby didn't seem interested in it.
