Reality TV 4/23

[Jalapeñomel]

MAFS reunion anyone? I’m watching now.

I feel so bad for Derrick. Yesterday, a bunch of people on Twitter said he should be the next Bachelor.

[Jalapeñomel]

Also this host need to host ALL reunion shows. He’s awesome.

[carrotsmakemefat]

I like Derrick. I’m not surprised they didn’t last.

[eport]

The production team owe Derrick and Mindy apologies. They were screwed.

And that host is so awesome. I love all the calling out/not taking crap from anyone.

As much as I don't like Brandon, I don't think Taylor is telling the truth about the night they were both arrested. Brandon may lash out, but he is usually lashing out at something (overreaction yes, but it is either production or something). I don't see him being the aggressor. I think she took a new boy to that bar specifically knowing he was there to show off a new boy/cause drama. There has to be a reason that he got the restraining order from the judge. Those are not as easy for men to get so there must have been some proof of her misbehavior.

I will watch in a little while. I cannot wait! I feel bad for D. i think he was always honest and went in with the best of intentions.

[cleo29]

eport, I think Taylor always tells things in a very slanted manner that will make her look better. I don't think she was honest with the Pros.

[NomadicMama]

I loved the clip of Zach talking in circles. Mindy’s reaction was great. And I loved that the host was not veiled in his questioning. Zach sucks. And he wore those glasses to try to look more intelligent. Didn’t work.

I agree that there is a whole other reality to what Taylor wasn’t saying and what she did…but Brandon did dig his own hole.

Katie is a weak and selfish person. Derrick deserves much better. I think she’d be miserable to live with. I hope he finds someone fun and loving who embraces his zest for life!!

It seems that Michael still does not really get that his lying is a problem. Meka was so damn patient. I really like her. She called Taylor out on her mean video, which was warranted. Meka deserves a good man who tells the truth and is real like she is.

I love how the ladies bonded. It’s neat to see how they support each other.

Does anyone here watch Teen Mom OG? I really need to quit this stupid show but what is the deal with Amber's ex Andrew? I mean she has her issues clearly but I can't figure out is this guy is decent or did he have an agenda from the beginning.

Amber is abusive and twisting the narrative.

No matter what, she attacked him with a machete while he was holding their baby. She and MTV needs to own that behavior, not excuse it, not defend it, not blame anyone else. Full stop.

I am really talking beyond that.  I wondered the about the guy before that all went down.

Now I see she has another guy and I just think how do any of these men get with her after watching the history unless they are after a few minutes of fame or something?  I just don't get it.

[Jalapeñomel]

I watch Teen Mom! I posted about it in the past, but no one else seemed to comment but joy!

Amber should’ve been fired. If she was a man, no way would MTV continue to enable that behavior. Should whatever his name is gone about it differently, perhaps. But she’s in the wrong. Also, she has a pattern of abusive behavior, and just because she’s a woman, doesn’t mean she should get a pass.

And Gary has grown into such a good husband, father, and friend.

[joy]

Ahhh. Fair question. Andrew claims to have not really known anything about her before this. It could be true. Ish.

I have really REALLY strong feelings about Amber. Sorry that I came out guns blazing there.

But really, fuck Amber.

[joy]

Andrew had to record her. No one was going to believe him unless he had proof. And even with proof, people are saying that Andrew “shouldn’t have provoked her” or “should have gotten her help.”

No. NO. No. I can’t, no.

[freshsqueezed]

Don't get me wrong I am not saying that what she did was ok. I am not really talking about that mess at all. I guess I am just still stuck at how does this woman constantly have a new man unless they are questionable themselves because what about her would be appealing? She has done nothing but sit on a couch or in bed for the last 10 years and make bank off of it though so kudos to her I guess

$$$$$

Look at all the stuff her last ex (I can't remember his name) bought. And I'm sure someone is paying him to stay quiet after the breakup.

I am really looking forward to the train wreck that RHONY promises to be tonight. Sonja at that party last week....yikes! I would die of shame if I were her friend, right after I carried/dragged/rolled her ass to the car.

[cleo29]

Did anyone watch Summer House last night? I am not sure why Amanda and shoot, forgetting the other girl's name, Nicole maybe, are so in Hannah's business. Luke has been honest and up front with Hannah from day one. She knows where he is coming from and what she is doing. They need to back out of it.

I agree with all of this. It's such a pleasant surprise to see what a kind and stable human being Gary has become. Also Kristina is a saint. I can't imagine being so generous with my husband's drama llama ex who's child I was raising. 

It's mind boggling how Ryan is now in his 30s and STILL blaming Maci for his (lack of) relationship with his son. I find her slightly annoying at times, but I really think she's just acting in Bentley's best interest and does not have any anti-Ryan agenda.

Ryan is the post boy for entitled/privileged white boy. He’s a terrible, terrible human being, and also shame on Mac for having babies with him.




Also, MAFS, I hope Katie is being dragged through the mud with SM. All the shit at the end of the reunion, Katie should be ashamed of herself, and she needs to take some (all) responsibility.

I call BS that it was 1) only physical and 2) only started later on in the process. I think they started talking way early into things. The change in her attitude to him is sudden and such a 180.

Mac is a dumbass for continuing to have kids with a drug addict. Pretty soon she'll lose custody of her first kid. I wouldn't allow my kid to go there for visitation after seeing Ryan on MTV.

Leah is so lucky to have Gary. She would be so fucked if Amber were her only parent.

Cheyenne is boring.

Mackenzie is annoying. How quickly she went from divorce to renewing vows. LOL

I'm glad Cate and Tyler seem to be doing better. Cate does seem to be in a better place.

Oh I forgot about Mackenzie...she's a hot mess. Do not go back to that cheating fool.

Right? I like her mom (RIP) and was pretty aghast that she was pushing Mackenzie to stay.

I also just don't care about Cheyenne. Her whole storyline is boring.

I'm pretty bored with Cate & Tyler these days too. I miss Butch, lol.

[egishere]

I think Amber and her ex are both terrible people. That doesn’t excuse her abuse though. I just don’t think Amber will ever be able to get her life together and be happy. It’s really sad and I know she has mental illness but she would be better off actually having to work a real job with a good routine and not being so lazy everyday.

Maci is so boring. I’m glad she’s trying to do charity work and stuff but all her storyline is so staged...trying to help charities, birth control talk and hating on Ryan. And I can’t take her glasses she is always wearing and her monotone voice!

I don’t get why Cheyenne and her fam would be so mad that Corey is having another kid. He seems like a great and involved Dad. Chey is just jealous because he never was as into her as she was him. She doesn’t seem to be into her boyfriend that moved to LA at all.

[dove]

The MAFs reunion was the best episode of the season

my favorite moment

Macy’s glasses don’t even have fake lenses!
