I think Angela's daughter and friends seem wise to the situation.  Even the anonymous pawn shop clerk gave looked skeptical.  It's all on Angela.

I watch this show to point and laugh at trashy lunatics who choose to embarrass themselves on reality TV, not to see someone's poor mother paraded in front of the camera as she is dying of cancer.  That broke my heart.  Don't do that again, TLC, you sickos.

I always got a sinister vibe from Luis, and I get a very similar vibe from Jesse.  Like he's just one pushed button away from giving Darcey a smack if she can't identify all the flags at the UN for him.

The older women is for sure in a long con.  I mean who meets someone from a message Hello on Facebook? Plus all the compliments, regular people talk about real thinks not you look pretty stuff all the time.

The women with the baby, that is different as he is sending her money, when has that happened before. At least the baby is too young to understand the daddy stuff.  There was a major filter on the duet stuff, if she uses that all the time he may be surprised what she really looks like.

Jesse is an ass.  If someone says to you that you need to fix your issues to make him happy that is a no go. If you do have an issue a caring partner should want you to get healthy for yourself not for them. I also feel like Jesse’s idea of fixing yourself is looking like he wants you too and learning not to cross him.

Ricky has two children (one a baby) and sends this woman money each week.  I just want to be sure everyone caught that.  I would chip in $50 to have the chance to kick his dumb ass.  

 

If the woman in the photos is really this woman he is speaking with (I doubt she is though) there is so much expensive fake shit in/on her with the boobs and the eyelashes, etc. that she cannot be that hurting for money.  Ricky just wants to be  the “man” which is why he is such an easy con. I feel bad for his kids but men who act like their wife/girlfriend need to be some type of trophy deserve what they get.  I mean clearly this is all fishy but still he is bragging about her.

I think Darcy is the lush mommy that Jesse can now control and dominate because he can't control and dominate whoever the real lush parent is out there. And no, he doesn't like her.

I think he was annoyed with her in the car because he'd forgotten about how much her physical presence irritated him. 

At this point he's just doing the show because he wants to promote his life coach and coffee business. 

She's probably hoping for a proposal.

They are like Pao and Russ except he's Pao.

Coming here to snark on this show is the best. It's like we all get to be each other's stand up comedians :D

[Pondlass1]

I don't know how some of the stories on this season can possibly last, they are so flimsy.  Ricky, for instance.  It's obvious she's not real and won't show.  And thank goodness a camera crew will follow Angela in the State of  Nigeria (!) as she could be in real danger.  Same thing with the mother going to England. Hope the cameras keep tabs on her - he looks like a caveman.  

Considering they all seem social media savvy - why don't they do any research? I would imagine Production does and already know what Melissa really looks like.

Are people really willing to appear this stupid on TV? The money must be real good.

Darcey looks much, much younger and prettier with lighter hair. She said somewhere (social media?) that she had fillers removed from her face. Looks tremendously better. WTF at Jesse's attitude in the car. He's a jerk. Darcey is desperate for love but she's not a bad person and deserves better.

 

 

I agree, there is a sweet vulnerability about Darcey under all that apparent desperation. Also, she looks beautiful this season, which probably annoys Jesse as he thinks he needs to be the prettier one in the relationship. Darcey needs someone who will appreciate her, and we all know that will never be Jesse. I want to fix her up with Ricky.

And yet nobody looks further down the road in their relationship and think how the everyday life will be, what their expectations will be...money issues and living conditions are glossed over, even criminal charges are given short shrift. Their fantasy of being the hero or the maiden in distress to be rescued from the life they are living is irresponsible. The legality of going thru the Visa process, not being able to travel back home every month, not being able to drive or work...nothing.  It seems like the most expensive way to get laid.

Darcey allows Jesse to treat her that way. Except for visiting America, I have no idea what his game is right now. He too needs to deal with his own issues and 'fix' himself. I would haul him off to Times Square and leave him there - hopefully his visit to the US is short and he can find a cheap place to stay, see the sights, and go home.

Jesse has been to NY in the past. He was at last year’s Tell All. He does not need Darcey to come to the US. He has shown who he is, repeatedly, to Darcey. She just refuses to see it.

I didn’t realize Jesse was a life coach.  That is hilarious as Darcy could really use a life coach but I doubt clients would pay for sage advice like “work on yourself and then come back to me”. If Jesse were actually skilled he could show off his work to the world with Darcy.

This is what I don't get about Darcey and Jesse. They do nothing but fight. They've never done anything but fight! What is it they are trying to save, exactly? They never had a real, give and take, adult relationship! Break up! There was never anything to save!

Darcey looked like a streetwalker at the airport.

[SnarkEnthusiast]

Every time Rachel says "karaoke app" my soul leaves my body. What is she, 15? What a childish way to meet someone. Fittingly, I think the app they're referring to is musical.ly, which is popular with middle school kids. Yikes. Arrested development all over the place (literally in John's case). I wouldn't be surprised if she's seen Ricky's daughter on there. 

So he pays for the baby's daycare and considers himself the father because she FaceTimed him through labor? Seems legit. Lucy is the cutest baby I've ever seen.

The age, culture, esthetic and generation differences are so evident to me. It’s painful to watch. Jesse is very young and hip (I can’t fault him for that), he appears to be pretty upfront about what he finds attractive in a woman. He’s said it, he’s been pretty clear...he wants an athletic, natural beauty who enjoys being active. He is not looking at marriage or fatherhood. He knows what he is attractive to.

Enter Darcey with her hair extensions, heels too high to walk around with, Channel grandma bags (to Jesse’s generation), makeup and clothes that screams “Disco Queen”, with daughters old enough to be his siblings and an attitude that screams “take care of me”.  It’s just not a pretty look.

Although I find Jesse to be cruel and nasty I can’t really blame him. Darcey just doesn’t pick up what he puts down.  I also respect him for not having done the wrong thing and proposed for the cameras.

I do blame Darcey for not being the smart one.  The mature one with a lot more to lose. She seems to want the media attention more than a happy relationship.  She looks miserable but unwilling to call it a day. 

And Darcey...nobody likes it when people spray themselves with perfume!  Especially young men—another grandma thing.  Stop that!

I missed that detail about Rachel meeting John on a karoeke app...oh dear. What made me sad (and angry) was her saying meeting John was the most important (or exciting)? moment in her life...while the camera focuses on her baby. I don’t have kids but I instinctively thought “idiot, shouldn’t the birth of your daughter be the best moment of your life? SMH. John looks nuts and not so intelligent. He’s ‘had’ over 100 women?  He probably has a few kids himself. He has a record for “fighting”?  Naw, it’s worse than that.

[PinkFlamingo]

Did anyone notice that Darcy seemed to be immediately annoyed by Jesse's presence? As soon as she got in the car she looked sad and resigned, like she wasn't happy to see him. Of course he started in on her right away too. Being that miserable that quickly after being apart for months just screams happy couple in the making! I don't know why she is with him, if it's just his looks and age, that won't last. I have a feeling he will age badly, then what? He is so controlling it is off the charts and he thinks he should control others too, that is probably why the life coach thing came about. Because he is perfect and has it all figured out and everyone else should change and get back to him. Is there a word that is way beyond all normal levels of arrogance? 

[PinkFlamingo]

It was in the commercial, so fair game I think. Since she stopped having babies she is looking for another way to keep the money train going with the younger ones. There must be a limit to the number of wedding specials for the daughters and sons people can watch.  

[Pepper Mostly]

Jesse is not good looking at all! He's tall, blond, and has a nice body, but his face! Between his pinched features and snotty expression, not to mention the Hitler Youth hair, he's a non starter for me. He also looks like he smells bad.

Yes! And in those pictures of him wearing a suit, all I could think of was the Geico Caveman Lawyer. Maybe he's just not MY type, but I don't get all Rachel's "he's SO good looking!" and "I never thought a guy this hot would be attracted to me," comments. 

Thanks to whoever mentioned that she used filters on the karaoke app, I couldn't figure out why she looked different on it than in real life. I guess that's what all the teeny boppers are doing nowadays.

I just....am baffled by this Rachael and John situation. It doesn't seem like a scam to get a green card. I know everyone has their types and some might not find him attractive but I think he's pretty good looking. He probably has no trouble getting a woman just at the corner coffee shop without having to find one across the pond.

So what gives?? What IS IT about her that he's so interested in? Could she secretly be a siren and her singing voice has mesmerized him?

Now, I'm not saying she's some awful looking woman that's unworthy of love, she's not. She's pretty, but she's got a lot of baggage that I just don't see being a source of appeal and lets be frank she's not hot enough to override it all.

 

Or, maybe it's a scam I haven't figure out yet.

Or maybe I'm just shallow. Stranger things have happened.

[seacliffsal]

Is it wrong that I take so much delight in the stupid decisions that are constantly made by the people on this show?

As soon as we were introduced to Ricky's daughter I realized that the biggest consistently with all the versions of this show is that the children are far smarter and wiser than their parents.  I think even little Lucy is far more aware than her mother-the only problem is that she can't give good advice yet due to limited speaking ability.  

It continually amazes me how anxious many single parents are to introduce strangers to their children and force a parental role onto their beloveds even though they hardly know them.  There really is something up with Rachel and John.  She said that she had been dating him for over a year and a half (18 months), yet had a baby with someone else (9 months pregnant and Lucy is 8 months old = 17 months).  Another Nicole?  Nicole had declared her love for Azan yet admitted to going out with someone else).  Rachel said that John had one event far more serious than the others whilst at University.  I really want to know.

Angie (?) I think she's older than she is letting on.  She is in a world of denial.  And, her inability to understand that Nigeria is a country located in the continent of Africa is just crazy.

Expendable income is harder to come by in his country. Selling coffee online to overseas customers might just mean cash in the bank that isn't taxed like crazy.  I could be wrong about that. Even if it is taxed like crazy, income is income. I think Jesse is in it for the money he will earn being on the show and promoting his business as a personal trainer and, now, selling his coffee.

What really galled me was that he (anticipatorily) defended himself by saying that if his daughter said no, he wouldn't do it.  THAT'S NOT HER RESPONSIBILITY, ASSHOLE!

And she's 12.  She'll be 18 in six years.  Get her out of the house and then do all the imbecilic shit you want to, Mr. I Put My Daughter First.  Or do what you want, but don't put the onus on your daughter to put the kibosh on it, and definitely don't claim that she's more important to you than your hottie waiting for you in Colombia because she's not.

You don't come off of an international flight looking or smelling fresh unless you fly on one of the Emirates suites with the private showers.  You could spruce up at one of the airline club lounges but I don't believe that Darcy or Jesse have the income or travel habits to have membership to any of them. A person is simply not at their best getting off of one of those flights. I would never have agreed to being filmed at that time as again you are simply not at your best. I recently went full on bitch face at a hotel clerk in Paris because my elderly Mother's room wasn't ready and that is not how I behave on a normal basis.

As far as his rubbernecking is concerned he probably expected her to give him some local color. Based on Darcey's tasteless overuse of designer logos I would imagine that her boasting about loving NYC and showing him the sights would be visiting Times Square and the M&M shop. Darcey is getting a very sympathetic edit this season - don't be fooled from the first episode. Seriously - HOW do you look at those ridiculous eyebrows and not say anything negative when she asks your opinion?

Jesse could have made those sleep-deprived remarks after getting a 30-minute earful about makeup and Darcy's face. For her touring NYC meant looking at her, not being able to take his eyes off of the face of his beloved, and face it, if he were interested, he would be looking at her more because he's already been to NYC.

Many of the couples are tired, but coasting on the excitement of actually being glad to see one another. Or, for the green card seekers, the thrill of stepping foot onto U.S. soil. Jesse doesn't really have either of those. He's just tired, grimy, and stuck with Darcy.

Agreed about Mo from Shrute Farms. He has serious anger issues that she hasn't confronted face to face. He's probably looking for a woman he can bond with emotionally before she gets to know him in person, and he may not even have the insight to realize that's what he's doing. He probably doesn't perceive himself as a brute... just misunderstood.

Angie and her daughter look almost the same age.  And I'm not saying Angie looks young.  Both apparently don't know what a dentist is.  And how do people so stupid have enough money to send anywhere?  Are they not paying their own bills?  How can you be that stupid and survive?

Darcey trotting in her Frederick's of Hollywood gown at the airport, and liberally spritzing herself with perfume before the Angry Dutchman entered the scene was kind of sad. She tries so hard to be this knock-out beauty but she goes overboard. She's an attractive woman but has no self-confidence. He immediately started berating her as soon as he's got in the car. He's a controlling verbally abusive 90's Euro-pop boy band reject.  After last year's tell-all, he should have been blocked, and deleted from her life. 

I'm not a guy, but it would be extremely weird to date a woman who was knocked up by some other random guy, and then go through the experience of her pregnancy with her via long distance. Either Jon is a saint, or something is very very fishy. He's actually not a bad looking dude so I'm waiting for the ax to fall. Something is off. Also, Lucy is the cutest baby ever. 

Big Mama Angie sounds exactly like Mama June. It is amusing when someone notices the red flags but still insists that the scammer is somehow different than the rest. This time it is truuuuu luvvvv.  Right, and I'm a Victoria's Secret model.  She could find someone in Georgia who is more age appropriate to spend time with. She seems  outgoing, and confident. Or she could invest in a good vibrator. 

Paul. Oh were to begin with this guy? Karine is definitely taking him on the green card ride. I'd worry for her if things go south because with Paul's prior history she might end up dead in a ditch somewhere. He gives off the creepiest vibes. 

Ricky is being catfished. Melissa is probably not even a she, but a he. To each their own, but she looked like one of those sex dolls. Her bolt-ons literally look like two flesh covered rocks. Again, he's got two young daughters and he's seeking someone who is using him, and is probably fake. The guy's an absolute idiot to be sending money to this person when he has kids to look after. He's like the male version of Molly in regards that proclaims to be all about his kids, but really he is all about himself, and the need to find his next orgasm.

One last thing, if an adult wants to sign up for this show, and expose themselves as being a complete dolt then that is their choice.  However, it is negligent to drag young children into it. Can you imagine the ridicule that goes on for them at school?

That family doesn't live particularly well. Considering that there is an income from a nurse. an adult daughter (whatever she does), child support for the kids and Social Security for the ill Mother - that's not exactly peanuts. I would imagine that much of their income goes to cigarettes, booze, fast food and lottery tickets.

I was trying, mightily, to give Angie some credit.   Because despite her conflation between continent, state, country, etc.  (are we being petty with our geographical pendatices ya'll? lol)  the thing is, is, that the territorial regions that Nigeria is divided into are actually called states.  But then later, she gave a black non us citizen a maga hat and I was back to:  nevermind.   Bless her heart.   She's got a cute and bubbly personality but she can make more money working for Coppertone and the American Lung Association than being a nurse.   I'm 50, I heard her say her age and got my ass as far away from the window as possible.

Well he’s hostile! Why is he speaking to Darcey like that?! What did she do to him?

Further more why is she putting up with it?

Any time a woman asks her gentlemen friend/boyfriend/husband etc “do you like x?(hair/makeup etc)”, if it’s REALLY awful the proper response is “babe you are always beautiful but maybe x would be better for this occasion” or “you look gorgeous”. His punk response of “makeup isn’t for everyone?!!!”

I know this makes me shitty but I laughed.  Hard.  It doesn't even make sense.  If makeup's not for me, I'm a natural beauty so thanks and if it is, then I did it right, so thanks.   But if you're trying to read me, bitch, deliver and read,.  That was stupid.    Who said he had young Hitler hair?  I'm crying!!!      

She puts up with too much shit for too little payoff.    Speak up Ohio and Kentucky, what in tarnation is going on in the middle of the country that she's not getting the minimum standard amount of youngun flirts?   Man, please.  That year I turned 42 for 3 years in a row that attention was damn near felonious.    All I want from Darcy is to dump dude without regret and make sure her lashes point the same direction.

 Rachel said she didn’t tell her father everything about John’s worst crime.  Did they say on the show? did he kill someone in that bar fight?

She said he *hurt* someone when he was at Unies.    I know she's accustomed to talking to babies but is attempting to make battery sound cute a thing now?

I was just about to comment that Paul and David Poor are both from Louisville.  They must have done some participant searches in those states.  Regardless, Paul and David are not great advertisements for Louisville men.

Was it ever discussed last year if Karine was actually 21?  I never totally bought it.  She always seemed like she was around 17.  The emoji pillows and unicorn slippers don’t help her case.

This should be a very entertaining season.  Things are about to get more stupider again.

Marry me.

So Angela is the new Danielle.  I wonder how many credit card scams that guy runs.

I like how Rachel uses filters on her pics and videos to give her the doe-eyed waif look.

Jesse and Darcy are the Roos and Pao of this show.  As in, the couple no one wants to watch.

I like Ricky, but he is so being played.  His daughter is cool.  She's like the Olivia to his Molly.

So Paul is hauling even more crap up the Amazon this time.  I hope his boat sinks.

 

It's gonna make me sound like a less shitty human being if I say I struggled.   But that's a lie.  I didn't.    Ergo, traditionally, aren't waifs skinny?

I missed that detail about Rachel meeting John on a karoeke app...oh dear. What made me sad (and angry) was her saying meeting John was the most important (or exciting)? moment in her life...while the camera focuses on her baby. I don’t have kids but I instinctively thought “idiot, shouldn’t the birth of your daughter be the best moment of your life? SMH. John looks nuts and not so intelligent. He’s ‘had’ over 100 women?  He probably has a few kids himself. He has a record for “fighting”?  Naw, it’s worse than that. 

Hoondreds, if we're remembering verbatim.    Um, while ya'll are google searching the 36 year old man Ricky's talking to, could you also look for John's picture in connection with.....scatch that, just put his name in a search engine with "........and UK's Dirk Diggler".

 

Did you guys know that Nigeria has more Royalty per capita than any other nation in the world?

 

 

Also Paul (seriously) explaining the mechanics of unicorn slippers.   My stomach still fuckin hurts. 

 

p.s. I don't think what's his name is a psychopath.   Sociopath, I'll buy.  He's got absolute botoxface when he's putting her down.
