Season 2 Discussion

[Morgalisa]

These trainwrecks make Nicole and Azan look like they are running toward each other on the beach.

[AZChristian]

We are booked on a Caribbean cruise over Christmas. The info on our stop in Grenada specifically warned that we would not be permitted to leave the ship in any type of camo clothing. When we travel, we try to research things like appropriate clothing.

[Eric]

Backward baseball cap Tarik is 43 years old and he dresses like a teenage boy with bad tastes. Maybe he wants to show the world his tacky tattoos with these awful tank tops. Grow up brother! But Pinay Hazel couldn't care less, She sees him as a meal ticket straight to milk and honey USA.

[Toaster Strudel]

The boring UK couple was a total snoozefest. Garbage Gnome's sister doesn't understand his relationship with Lucy because he has none. His reasons for not wanting Lucy to call him "dad" were quite... reasonable.  Like Judge Judy says... NEXT!

Clearly, Baseball Cap Tarik was expecting to shag Hazel on the first night, but Dead Hazel Eyes and her family have different plans. They were expecting him to propose on the first night so that "all of us can be happy." Didn't propose yet? HOW ABOUT NOW? Her parents might be more prosperous if they spent less time shaking and crying in "church" and talking about god all the time. Five, six hours of this nonsense? They paid lip service to pretending they care about Tariq's religion. Good for him not to hide his lack of belief, and being honest, and good on Hazel for translating it to her parents accurately "Tarik doesn't have religion," while putting on her best "puh-leeeaaze accept him anyway" face to her parents. They didn't skip a beat, They've done their due diligence, past that, he could have horns and cloven hoofs and they wouldn't care. They half-assed try to convert him with a short sentence and when he says no, they shrug it off like they totally expected it anyway. These two are truly worlds apart. That religious insanity was pretty shocking.

Ricky's Dicky - Judging by next week's preview, Ricky is a disgusting pig beyond anything we've seen of him so far. It was bad enough that he thinks he has a "great connection" with someone he has little connection with beyond the sending of money, and wanking to the sight of her rigid implants. The chaste gentleman boasts about his deep love for Melissa to his friend: "She looks hot as hell, better in person!" So you know right there, this is a rock-solid two-way relationship with deep foundations, that will last forever. He even claims to his friend that he rejected a kiss from her... but that's not what I saw. She gave him the cheek - but what do I know? Is his friend right about this so-called rejected kiss being a missed opportunity, as Ricky misleads him on the facts? "Maybe he's right, maybe I suck." Yes you do suck, but not for the reasons you're thinking. He didn't want to give Melissa the (correct) impression that is only in Columbia for her titties and some epic shagging where she'd be doing 100% of the work. He's a gentleman, he keeps repeating, convincing no one. Next week though, it's hinted that the love of his life, in whom he placed all his hopes, and reportedly impressed on their first date, can be quickly forsaken for a hopefully more available "plan B" girlfriend, who I assume is less hot as hell, because these guys are impossibly superficial.

Well, Mother Pole possesses some sort of brain, asking Pole about what is going on and maybe trying to get the gears between his ears working. She's right, Pole and Karine communicate via an App, he barely knows her, he doesn't have a job, he can't possibly support himself, Karine, and a baby. For Pole, the red flag should have gone up when Karine out of nowhere wants a baby. Uh, she's probably 3-4 months along already. She is not the fresh flower she was last season. She looks much older, dirty, haggard, puffy, etc. What happened? And in a real rush to solidify the 'commitment' by having a baby. Pole, start the arithmetic skills. Maybe add a calculator App to your phone.

Tarik - you fool. You met the woman online what was seemingly a few weeks ago. Her parents already pressuring for a proposal? Hazel does need to tell him about her child - as he has a right to know. He's been in the country for 24 hours and the parents expected an engagement? Hazel is upset that he has an ex in Thailand? I'd be asking him why he seeks relationships with Asian women instead of women back home in the US? The parents inviting him to 'church' was a bit much. I guess he was expecting some sort of hour long Catholic service and not what he experienced - and for five hours of it? I'd have walked out.  No Hazel's parents, he is not likely to become the evangelical or cultish type that your 'religion' is.

Grangela - you may wish to put the ring at the pawn shop back on the market. Michael has a few relationship dealbreakers. No he does not like your habit. You're being big/fat may not be forever. But your addictions ain't easy to quit. Surely the dressmaker at the market could discreetly find her a nice dress. The whole picture on the phone thing screams a bit odd but who knows.

Ricky you deluded idiot. Are you seriously expecting the prized Melissa to show up the next day? She saw you, cut her loss. Stop sending her money. Spend some time on the beach, do some sightseeing and suck up the non-existent relationship and move on. You may be naïve and an idiot, but she owes you nothing. Did she agree to your coming to visit? Probably not. The beautiful woman you want may not want you. You should recognize the relationship red flags and run.

I find it surprising that Jon has apparently had many, many relationships. His sister came off as a bit much. He barely knows Rachel, is not hugely attracted to her or wants to spend a lot of time with her. Rachel is also in it for the fantasy of having a man who has been a rock for her online and who for unknown reasons pays for her baby's daycare. Are they willing to make a life with each other? He is uncertain that he wants to be a 'dad' and who can blame him? Rachel could still put on some better clothes - nothing expensive - but nothing ratty. No idea what both of them have to bring to any relationship right now. Rachel wants a daddy, Jon wants what exactly? Being a parent is a 24/7 job and he probably is freaking out at that sort of responsibility.

I do find it odd that if their 'story' was filmed in December, that there aren't any holiday decorations around.

Darcey and Jesse, I just can't. Don't know if they are in it for publicity for whatever they are shilling, or what.  Jesse is smug and arrogant. Always looking for something to fix in Darcey. Dude, she isn't going to change because you want her to. Whatever work she does on herself will never be enough for you. You dressed like a slob to go to that nice restaurant. You also vacillate between being verbally and emotionally abusive and making whatever grand romantic gesture. Maybe her twin wants you - she certainly is much calmer and probably is better at playing your game. Perhaps you need to explain transactional analysis to Darcey and the roles of parent, child, and adult. Far too much time spent triggering the other. Go back home to Amsterdam.

[Toaster Strudel]

Greasy Kriny's mercenary side is starting to show as she rushes Fire Station Pole to get married fast, and immediately jumps to the topic of having a baby right after they apply for a license. Candidly, she admits that this baby will be tasked at birth with keeping the parents together, stop them from fighting, and force Pole into a lifetime commitment. "Puh-leeeease," she begs Pole. who reluctantly sorta agrees, but talks to mom first, who conceals her horror and wisely reminds him of his inability to support himself. OooPSie.

And this is why I love this show. Next up, we discover that Greasy Kriny is lazy, slovenly, messy, childish, and left to her own devices, would live in filth, buried in poop emoji pillows, unicorn rubbish, cheap country fair plushies, and Disney theme dildos. Pole, who can't support himself, has a moment of clarity: "She can't take care of herself, how will she take care of a baby?" Cue scenes of Kriny sleeping in and listlessly rolling in bed while Pole tidies up her childish accessories so that the floor can be seen again. The sink is completely full of dirty dishes. The overflowing drier linen trap could cause a fire, and this is Pole saying it, he should know, I take his word for it. He complains that she shops like a 12-yr old, letting him do everything and take all the decisions even as he doesn't understand the language. Looking bored, she carelessly bumps the shopping cart on store displays, and won't get off social media to pay attention to the world. She mimes "I dunno" to every question he asks her. And like a lethargic, yet defiant teen, she whines that he's controlling, acting like her dad, and suddenly the age difference is an issue. Maybe there is some truth to the suggestion that she is addicted to something.

[JocelynCavanaugh]

There is not a single couple on this show that actually likes each other on a remotely comparable level. In every case, a clueless, insecure American is either outkicking their coverage on a desperate foreigner who just wants a McMansion filled with apple pie and MAGA hats, or pining for someone who can barely stand to look at them and must be on the show to promote something. And I’m really being generous here because Karine, Hazel, and Michael aren’t even outside Pop Warner coverage IYKWIM. 

Of all the fools and thirst traps on this show, the one that truly confounds me is Jesse + Darcey. Neither is poor or ugly or running from legal issues as far as we know. They’re utterly miserable together and I don’t believe it’s “just a storyline” (kinda tired of that being thrown out about everything that ever happens on every reality show ever but that’s another thread). I’ve seen this go down IRL and may have been guilty of it myself. They’re so invested in the idea that “they are in a relationship” that they can’t see how terrible and dead-in-the-water it is.

I completely forgot that this season consists of a stay in Connecticut for Jesse and Darcey.  I got really excited when they were leaving the hotel because I thought he was actually leaving for the Netherlands.

Tarik is worried about Hazel's parents' approval, so he wears a tank top and shorts to meet them. Ok.

I'm sicky of Ricky.

[Toaster Strudel]

COPD Angie won't be cowed by Nigeria. She is resolutely fat, American, loud, thirsty, won't be obeying anybody or wearing Nigerian garb, and she needs to smoke some Marlboros right now, even if that means she has to run away from Michael. "I'm not Nigerian, Mike, I'm American!" yeah don't we know it. She also needs close captioning. Kudos to Sext Nigerian's quick thinking friends covering up for him about not having Angie's picture on his cell phone. They are such bad liars they couldn't even fool Angie. They had no poker face either; when they were looking at Michael and Angie together, their disbelief and awkward amusement was all over their faces.

Disappointingly, Michael's mom had absolutely no love for the conceal-carry Lord's Prayer purse, and she didn't hide it. She wanted a big one! Like Angie's! I was impressed that Angie didn't get up and leave when his family said they weren't fans of the second amendment, but Angie lying and saying she doesn't have guns burst that balloon pretty quick. So how come only Angie had to eat those big-ass snails? What's the deal with that?

She only slapped him playfully in that store but playful or not, it was extraordinarily uncouth and disrespectful. Adding to her tackling him in bed like a WWF wrestler, grabbing his junk, spitting half-chewed snail in his mouth, jumping his bones and leaving him no room to express his free will or values as a different, separate human being, it's clear to me that she probably has a violent temper and can get physical. She's self-centered, and mean.

The snail thing nearly made me vomit. Not the meal, but Angela demanding Michael suck them out of her mouth and disguising it as a kiss. Two feet in front of his mother no less. I had to turn away and I missed whatever happened after that. I have a terrible gag reflex.

These couples are FILTHY! The hotel that Darcey/Jesse are staying in was almost a big a mess as their relationship. Paul and Kareeneee’s apartment was so cluttered and dirty. Unicorn slippers and stuffed animals, like a child lives there. It’s like the “Nicole Effect” taking over these people.

I think it was part of a Halloween costume. I remember seeing pictures of the two of them at a Halloween party last year, with him dressed as a felon, and her as a cop. But I have no idea why he continued to wear it out and about.

To me, John appears the look of someone who realizes they made a horrible mistake.  The reality of a girlfriend who wears granny panties, a cat sweater, & no makeup, - and comes with a pre-made baby - is maybe not seeming quite the thing he wants anymore.

Darcey and Jesse waste a lot of good food.  If I was their relationship therapist, I would suggest a small snack an hour or so before dinner.  Could the root of all their issues be hangriness?

[millennium]

I so wish Jesse had walked out on Darcey in Angelo's Pizza, then come marching back in, taken the pizza and walked out again.   Did you hear him apologize to the waitress?   "I apologize for the shouting."  Translation: "I'm sorry you had to witness me in the company of this stupid bitch."

He HATES her.  H-A-T-E-S her.   

Tonight was the first I heard of Darcey having an identical twin.   I saw Stacey and thought, "These 90 Day show people are GENIUSES!"   Jesse's eyes were damn near twinkling as he drank in Stacey, then three minutes later he steps outside and proceeds to shit all over Darcey!   You just know Jesse's plotting a George Costanza-like plan to swap Stacey for Darcey.   Stacey was getting off on having the upper hand over Darcey too.     I propose a new show starring Jesse, Darcy and Stacey called "Tree's Company." 

Karine is disgusting and appears to be on something.   Had to chuckle when Paul lectured her about the dryer lint:  "This could cause a fire," I should know because I'm an arsonist..

This might be a brilliant new crossover diet for Jesse to shill to his life coaching (I know, so hard to believe has anything to offer in that regard) clients as well as his fitness clients. Whenever you plan to go out to dinner, in order to keep those calories at bay, start a fight with your dinner partner the minute the food is delivered to your table and walk out in a huff. The pounds will melt off.

If I were their relationship therapist, I’d tell Darcy to head for the hills and not leave a forwarding address. And I’d tell Herr Meester to take his ripped clothing and go back to Amsterdam. We have enough emotionally and verbally abusive men in the U.S. already.

Agreed. She had obviously learned some common phrases in the language . . . she made an effort. And she was gracious and warm to Michael's family & friends. I felt bad for her in the market. His expectations for how a woman should dress, act, talk, and (not) smoke do not match Angela's personality at all. They will NOT marry and some Joe Bob at home who she might have rejected before is going to look awfully good to her now.

Let me start with the wretched Dutch/American train wreck that is made of Task Meester Jesse and Drama Darcey.

The desperate-to-put-a-ring-on-it Darcey is back!  Seeing married couples meant they were meant to be together in last week's episode, but this week she's practically smelling that proposal coming, why, he just met her daughters and no one jumped off the boat (presciently named the Hornblower Serenity in honor of Jesse's personality) in a fit of pique. Like Darcey, Jesse is extraordinarily image-conscious. He likes to project an aura of calm and wisdom but all I see is childish behavior and rage that he awkwardly suppresses by changing the subject to "look a goat!" or some words of wisdom delivered with a controlled, yet vexed tone. So it turns out that Jesse is the force that demands she puts the brakes on her usage of (often drunken) of social media. While they bicker about who will be posting what and where, or should even be posting anything at all, he haughtily challenges her "Go! Go post now!" as she balks, then tuns catty. "Act your age and start structuring your thoughts!" he mutters. "I am a strong woman!" she lies. The strong woman walks out again, all 4' 10" of her, petulantly prancing around wearing emergency flip flops (you never know when your drama will require a nimble exit and the need to ditch the 6" heels). How many times do they go to a restaurant, fight, and walk out? Who pays the tab? In their defense, that was a lot of arugula on Darcey plate, a lot of people would walk out on this much arugula, too.

They get back to the hotel. Right away, 50 Shades of Jesse speaks of sleeping on the couch, they get all luvy-duvy, and Jesse goes to take a shower, sees himself in the mirror and falls in love ago and the make up sex is on. "It's rare what we have, once in a lifetime" - well thank god for small mercies. "Is Darcey able to fix herself?" asks the douche nozzle. He wonders how Darcey lives. Does she bike to the grocery store? Dorothy, you're not in Amsterdam anymore. Is Jesse's lust of riverfront properties, boats, and luxury real estate campfires hinting as to a motive of why he continues a relationship with a woman whose every word irritates him to no end?

They fought in the back seat of that car like 6 yr olds.

D: You keep elbowing me, mom, Jesse's elbowing me!
J: No I'm not why are you lying?
D: I'm not! But you're kinda going like that! (mimics) OK I'll just shuffle over here.
J: I'm just sitting here stretching, babe. FUCK! It's always something with you!
D: Oh geez (contorts face) you're so RuuuuuuUUuuuude!
J: No... that's just REALITY! nener nener nener
D: I just get frustrated with the bickering and us butting heads, we need to figure that out fast, cuz I don't want that around the kids (unless it's butting heads with her twin sister, they've seen that all their lives).
J: You need to figure yourself out!
D: Don't talk down to me! Please stop! I'm a strong woman (NOPE), and I don't need to be, like, belittled!
J: Ja, you're not being belittled, honey, that's only between your ears, alright?
D: Sarcastic OK cool
J: Let me start appreciating this beautiful nature, look, a goat!
D: Yeah the foliage cuz you don't appreciate... (she cuts herself off from saying 'me') yeah.
J: I don't appreciate BS, ja.

Then later:

D: You're not grumpy grandpa anymore.
J: YOU make me grumpy grandpa!!!

It turns out that Darcey butts heads with her twin, too, surprise, surprise. Stacey is all judgy (which is ironic given that she has her own long-distance relationship with a hot, 20-something Albanian herself, judging by her IG account), but Darcey gives her the goods. She retells how Jesse & herself didn't make it to her birthday cake because they both got "triggered." Are they really jealous of each other? Darcey asking TaskMeester which IDENTICAL TWIN is prettier is a hint, but it's Stacey that drives the point home. She looks at Jesse longingly and contrasts Drama Darcey with her more laid back, wise and agreeable nature, adding that Darcey needs to "work on herself" - Stacey is laying it pretty thick that she wants Jesse for herself.

Optimistically, Jesse tells us that he is "trying to be mature." Did it work? To help us decide, the editing monkeys offer us this evidence: "Darcey can you be quiet please I'm trying to talk to the producers and this is my time work on my TV image and you're ruining things?" - followed by next week's preview where Jesse berates her choice of steak-cutting method. "YOU RUIN EVERYTHING!" You tried, Jesse, you tried.

It sucks that you can only like a post once.   "Look, a goat!" -- my favorite line of the entire 90 Days franchise.

I agree. I think her problem is she knows they won't fit, so that's why she said she didn't want to try them on. But I don't see any hope for this relationship as she balks every time he suggests any adaptation. She's her own person and intends to stay that way. Any adaptation to be done, she expects to be done by him. He does not want that, so they will constantly butt heads.

ETA: She needs to be more respectful of his culture, though. Too bad she doesn't seem to have brought anything to wear except those atrocious cleavage baring shirts. I think that's the biggest reason people are staring.

Oy vey...where to begin? It’s like asking myself, do I start shoveling a mountain of horseshit from the top of the mountain or do I just start digging in wherever I can get at right now? Okay, deep breath...

First up, Darcy & Jesse...Yes, Jesse is a straight up controlling mind fucker emotional abuser BUT...and I cannot believe I’m adding a BUT to that BUT, Darcy is a mental freak show. She seriously has major issues and needs heavy therapy and in no way should be in any relationship with a human being. Not even a shoe...As much as I loathe Jesse, I can totally understand why she tweaks him, she’s like dealing with a deranged parrot, pecking away at everything that bothers you. Over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over. And if that’s last sentence grated on your nerves, imagine dealing with her rehashing the same old shit over and over and...

The two dudes seeking hot chicks not commensurate with their own sub standard looks, are pathetic and deserve whatever they get. Tariq deserves a lonnnnnng life being forced to attend Pinoy Pentecostal Church services. Oh, and let me not get started on Ricky’s GIANT mofo fanny pack...WHO wears those damn things anymore????? What a maroon. Ricky, the only colors she’s showing are that you’re a fucking cartoon character and she’s not interested.

Pole and Krinny...she looks puffy indeed, she looks like shit compared to last season. Did she gain a ton of weight on The money she got selling off all of Poles plushy gifts? Or didn’t she get knocked up from another dude and this is why she wants to rush into starting a family? How can someone as mistrusting as Pole not know how to read a pregnancy test?!?

John & Rachel...so this chick thinks two weeks is enough time to decide if they want to marry? What the fuck is wrong with these people?! He is not that into her, full fucking stop. His mother looks horrified but being the nice English mum, she’s not being as overt as I would be, but are no mistake, her thought bubble definitely said 'W.T.F.'?!?

I know I’m probably missing someone here but who cares, these people all suck.

The real pregnancy test for Karine came tonight. The one with essay type answers.

1. She wants to start a family NOW. (She really is a child if she truly believes a child will solve all their issues. I'm dumbfounded.)

2.  She breaks down in the preview when he says he's not sure they should marry. I'm pretty sure it's not because she's madly in love with him.

Okay, Paulie, there are your answers! Read them and weep, because you are right - she seems to have the mindset of a 12 year old.

Darcy and Jess isn't a 43 year old dating a 24 year old, it's a 16 year old dating a 14 year old.

Not saying you’re wrong by any means, but Tariq’s daughter seems well cared for in her current situation. Hazel’s presence wouldn’t be detrimental based on what I’ve seen, even if she just supports Arie’s (the little girl) routine. 

Probably because Hazel has difficulty relating to people, so she may have even more difficulty making any sort of bond to Arie. As well, to me, she seems far too self involved to make much of an effort towards her.

Every time Darcy cries "I just want love" I see her crying about her parents as a little girl.

No, she didn't! As soon as he texted her that he was going there, she ghosted him right up until the time she finally texted him that she'd meet him at 7:30. I don't think that in her wildest dreams she thought he'd ever travel there. But he did not take the hint, and like the numbskull he is, went flying off into the sunset anyway.

The more she ignored him the more Ricky proclaimed his love for her(or him)....Melissa was quick to pick up on his neediness and possible stalker like personality trait.

ETA: She needs to be more respectful of his culture, though. Too bad she doesn't seem to have brought anything to wear except those atrocious cleavage baring shirts. I think that's the biggest reason people are staring.

Well down at the Elk's Club in Podunk GA her cleavage is a real turn on. 

My question is why can't Big Ang get a bra that actually supports her?

Darcey should just have spitefully folded up that entire pizza and taken it with her when she flounced. Freakin' saddest thing, how could you leave the pizza behind?

More to the point, why is Darcy letting her Dutch Boy tell her how to eat pizza?  

Clearly there are two types of people in this world, one who leaves pizza behind and one who would NEVER leave pizza behind.

Maybe he took a page out of George Costanza's book and he eats his candy bars with a knive and fork too!

The snail thing nearly made me vomit. Not the meal, but Angela demanding Michael suck them out of her mouth and disguising it as a kiss. Two feet in front of his mother no less. I had to turn away and I missed whatever happened after that. I have a terrible gag reflex.

I bet Cigangela doesn't.

No greater turn-on for a man than an aging, emotionally unstable woman sobbing "I just want love."

I have no hope any of these couples can make it. They're all so mismatched.

Tarik, you chubby fool. Hazel sees you as a way out of poverty. Nothing more.

I mean truthfully isn't that what they all look for? Young women anyway. It's a tradeoff.

Tarik is worried about Hazel's parents' approval, so he wears a tank top and shorts to meet them. Ok.

Don't forget the backwards cap on his head. Because he's cool like that.

Of all the fools and thirst traps on this show, the one that truly confounds me is Jesse + Darcey. Neither is poor or ugly or running from legal issues as far as we know. They’re utterly miserable together and I don’t believe it’s “just a storyline” (kinda tired of that being thrown out about

I think Jesse is enamoured with the USA,  which I don't understand because Amsterdam is awesome, it's not like he's coming from Hazel's part of the world. If putting up with Darcy is going help him to get here then he will take one for the team.

Paul and Karinne - yes a baby will solve all your problems. Maybe they can each teach the baby their language and then once the kids is old enough he/she can translate for them?

It's also admired in Nigeria, where the locals have mistaken it for a relief map of the Congo River basin.

In the "Before the 90 Days - Extras" they show Mother Michael preparing the snails.  Apparently the only other ingredient is Ortega salsa from a jar.   She rolls her eyes and says she would never eat them.  The subtitle reads, "I'm Nigerian, not stupid."

(wishes I had a gif of Devar's sisters laughing)

Hazel's parents had a Hello Kitty carpet or mat.   I'm thinking product placement advertising.

Nice!  LOL

When he was standing on the rooftop overlooking the city lights, I hoped he would go full-on Stanley Kowalski and cry out:  "MELISSA!!!"

I thought that was a blanket,, and they were sitting on a bed.  I was only half-watching at that point though, so who knows.
