My wife is a hardcore TLC junkie. We’ve been watching 90-Day since the 2nd season and honestly I’m glad it’s not another show about hoarding, babies, or hoarding babies.
I have to agree with the peeps who think Kalani is sexy, but TOW’s Tiffany might have dethroned her. (Note: I have a type, and it’s chubby brunettes with big brown eyes).

I’ve made a new game out of guessing how badly the promos are cutting people out of the original context of their statements. Sometimes it reminds me of that episode of Newsradio where joe re-cuts the baseball promo to make Bill say that he “likes boys and is on crack”
The scene where Pao was being shown to refuse to let Russ’ mom touch the baby and it ended up she goes “oh I’ve been so selfish, I should change that. Here, play with the baby” was the worst.

Also, I hope someone runs over Jay but at this point I am convinced it was all fake and Ashley deserves whatever he does from here on out.

They've taken the Hell's Kitchen "next time" promos to a whole new level. Except for the Paul "running into the woods like he poo poo himself" (although he addresses the running in typically Paul-like fashion in that Cameo video) and the "is a terrorist" stuff. That's all legit.

Maybe his brain processes things like a choose your own adventure.

You have received a letter that calls you out and makes you accountable for your prior actions. Do you:
A) call the office and try to explain the situation, potentially with a lawyer?
B) give up, pack your copious amounts of safari gear and return to Kentucky?

You have chosen C. Good luck, idiot.

I’m so glad the Nickel Smirk was brought up because it’s the one thing that gives me hate energy like nothing else.

I don't know. The smirk is almost identical to when my 6 year old believes that he has outsmarted me. It's not as infuriating as say, Larissa's boyfriend's face. Every time I see his face I want throw my car in reverse, yell, "OOOOOPS!" and slam on the gas - so the only way I have to see his giant bug eyes is being swished left and right by the rear wiper. Every time he'd say, "what did I miss?"

I feel like The Family Chantal is setting Winter up to get emotionally beat down. I know she agreed to be on the show but she seems like the closest thing to an innocent bystander the show has.

She's just as involved as the rest of the family with their garbage, she just doesn't say stupid poo poo about Einstein's apple theory like her mom. Jah straight up told her her parents are too involved in Pedro and Chantel's marriage (subtly implying she should also stay the gently caress out) and she said they had every right.

I should have clarified that it looks like the show is setting her up, not the rest of the family. Looks from the previews that Jah is going to break her heart.
But yeah, they are way too involved - but not quite Debbie/Colt/Larissa all living together overly involved but close.

The most painful thing for me was when the cute horny girl (can’t remember her name at the moment) made the banner for her dude from South Africa and it says “love, your suger”. The inability to spell gives me flashbacks to one of my ex girlfriends. Worse than Mursel awkwarding his way through being an instant dad.

I thought Darcey was gross but her sister is even worse.

And: people who had never been anywhere outside their own town always acted with surprise and sometimes hostility at the idea we might want to live somewhere else.


I have a hard time deciding which is actually worse between the two of them.

My wife asked me why Murcel kept talking about how great Turkey is and I had to break it down that people here in the US are so UScentric much in the way Murcel is. They just tend to think that what they have / where they are is the best and no other situation or place has anything to offer them. I used to work with a few people like that.

$15k to feed 40 people how do you not just get up and leave when they try to pull that

For real. My whole wedding including reception for 100 guests was substantially less than like $5000 and included all the food, her dress, my suit, photographer, rehearsal dinner etc. But I've never been a big fan of throwing oneself a prom.
I had a nacho bar as part of the food, which was dope. And if I had to do it all again, I'd throw 50 pounds of pork into the treager and make pulled pork nachos too. Every time someone at my old office would get married someone would bring up memories of the nacho bar and the rad cupcakes we had. Good times, great grub.

When this happened on the show I heard a “dook” of the tivo being paused and my wife looks over at me and says “would YOU be into having a 3-way?” And not with the tone of ‘tee hee let’s do this’ more of an accusation really. I stared at my Switch without blinking knowing that no good can come of this conversation, as it was the epitome of damned-if-you-do questions. I had already walked this bear trap laden hallway when I was still under anesthesia and she asked me which of her co-workers I thought were sexy. So I did what anyone in my situation would have done. I said, “I’m busy, leave me alone”. Thanks, Robert! (Wife has issues)


Also, as much as I thought Tania was kind of sweet but a little dim at first, good lord that woman is a train wreck.

I would've turned it around, "would YOU want a 3 way?" sort of accusatory, and point out it isn't the dude in the show trying to have one.

But that's mad insecure, did you do something to cause this? If not she should probably inspect herself a bit.

She’s the super jealous type. She was cheated on by every dude she went out with before we met so it shaped her view of men. And we don’t have the same taste in women.

Am on episode 6 after binging the season over the last few days, and every time Mursel is on screen this post gets in my head. Thank you.

Also I love that neither Tania or Syngin can spell the word ‘sugar’, and if either of them said it was an injoke the producers let it hit the cutting room floor to make them look dumb.

I was wondering about that myself. I assumed it’s some kind of South African dialect thing cause you know how the Dutch are with spelling and colonialism.

Edit: afterthought: But what do we expect really? Their mom named her kids Tania and Tiana. If there’s one more she could be Anita and they’d all have the exact letters in their names.

You know, I get that culturally they are flippy outty about her having kids etc, and they agreed to lie about it, but seriously, what’s the harm in a couple of people half way around the world being left out of the info? It’s not like the kids are missing out on having the most awesome grandparents or something.
Someone in their circle will invariably say, “well the kids are related to them now...” but no, they really kinda aren’t.

They aren’t signing a contract to go to thanksgiving, Christmas and Easter dinners with these people. In a few years the kids will move out and it would be null. I mean F those Turkish grandparents for being lousy, but I fail to see how it impacts anyone. Even if they move back to Turkey eventually, are his parents going to monitor Anna’s emails or something?

"before I was aware of the harm" she says... Is that because she has a lack of awareness of things in general? Or was the picture somehow taken in the year 1500? I remember in like 1987ish watching a film in school called something to the effect of "I is not for Indian*" and it was about how native peoples were you know, human beings with feelings and cultural history and how commoditization of their culture is not cool. Pretty sure that was before she was born. Also, even nobody involved in the Disney version of Pocahontas was under the false impression that it was accurate in any way. Crack a book, Tania. Dang.


*the title came from the old alphabet runners that were above the chalkboards in classrooms where they had I standing for Indian and every other letter was an object and I was used for a group of people therefore reducing them to object status - and how Ice Cream would be more suitable.

It’s never made sense to me how people are so enthusiastic about breeding beyond their means.
Robert’s kid doesn’t even have his own bedroom as far as I can tell. We’ve never even seen any of his other kids or evidence that they actually exist. I can’t imagine that driving Uber is going to pay all of his own bills let alone trying to put any of the kids in a better life starting position than he is now. I would never be content for my (2) kids to be as poor as I was as a kid.

Beyond that, stop littering with children. Unless you’ve figured out a way to produce more resources than they consume you are doing the entire world a disservice.
