Joy, attends midwife appointment, this was for a huge baby, with breech presentation? She had an emergency trip to the ER, during labor. One would think that should be changed...Joe and Kendra have already had the baby, at least this one went to the hospital. Shopping for a piano? Yes, I heard that Jana is a concert pianist, maybe Jinger is too.

So behind on the news, I see this as totally going down in ratings. Aside from people who watch because of the pregnancy obsession.

If Joy had a midwife appointment & found out she was having a huge baby with breech presentation, something is just plain crazy about that. The midwife should have washed her hands of Joy as a patient & told her she absolutely needed to be scheduled for a C-section. If the baby's breech presentation changed, they then could have made plans for one of their well loved home deliveries. It's unbelievable the chances these people take with birthing babies. As far as the ratings go, I will never understand people's obsession with the Duggars & pregnancy. Do they think anything is going to be different with any of the deliveries? It's only a question about whether when they are rushed to the hospital, will it be due to hemorrhaging, or due to emergency C-sections? Now there's an obsession with both the Duggars pregnancies & weddings. Sadly both of these issues involve how their lives are going to turn out in the long run. Will they really be happy with their very best friend that they have known for 3 months & have never even shared a brief kiss with? Will they have the time, resources & love for all these babies they are bringing into the world? Time to ditch this never ending soap opera.

I watched for five minutes. I couldn't take any more. But I will note that Lauren seems far more intelligent than her spouse, and she tries to hide it, with her giggling.

Great place for a honeymoon, tour a meat market? Really? Oh, now a vegetable market. Kissy. Ugh.

Have to end the pain.

Willow said...

It may be a bit boring, but Jinger does play the piano fairly well. Lots of families have pianos. Its not the kids' fault their parents are idiots, JMO. That was Kendra who was giggling on her honeymoon.


Sanity Please said...

I know many large families, as I'm sure others do & I've never known a family to have one wedding right after another, in such rapid succession. I do know of a family where they had a daughter's wedding in June & another in September but that's the only one. I don't believe that one young person in a family, immediately gets engaged to their very best friend that they have known for 3 months, right after their brother or sister gets married. There's not an ounce of individuality in that family, unless someone else is pulling the strings. I think it goes somewhat like this; we need to keep the wedding-go-round moving at the speed of lightning, so get Miss Cindi over here to plan another wedding & I'll find someone to be the bride or groom, whatever is required. These weddings are a sham & unfortunate for the couples involved, who only have stars in their eyes & wonder what a kiss is like.

I definitely think that is what happened with many of these "courtships", or rather, arranged marriages. Especially Anna and Josh, poor Anna was so set up.

Betty Lou said...

Sooooo done with this show! The feral child is making a cd and Michelle has turned stage mom. Just shoot me now.

Pants on Fire said...

Jeremy's mom is a classy and beautiful woman, in my opinion.

Angela said...

I am to tired of Jessa saying Y'all as well.
Really tired of Jessa PERIOD !!!!
Jessa is so fake !!!
And jealous of everyone else.
I will be glad when Jana either leaves or has her day in the Sun !!


Unknown said...

Is it me...or is it disgusting that poor Lauren had to eat leftovers that passed the sniff test? The finger licking and plate licking are sickening. Nothing seems to embarrass them.

Willow said...

I agree and I was also soo annoyed that Jessa is in charge of another woman's house decorating again!! Why don't these newly married women want to decorate their own homes. Why does Jessa and sometimes Jana, always get to/have to do it? For one reason, Jessa is not that good, IMO. Jana is pretty talented, but really, I would rather do my own. Helping a person move in is one thing, deciding what their house looks like is another. Even their nurseries!!! Remember way back when Jill first got married, Jessa went over to her house and put up all those blue/turquoise frames. They looked tacky to me. The other thing was, Jessa led the house tour instead of Kendra and Joe. Talk about a camera hog. She crashed Jinger's birth episode as well. Here is a news flash for TLC: We are TIRED of Jessa. We know her pretty well by now and we would like to see a little more of the newer family members. Jim Bob was on the show last night and I did not enjoy that either. Sorry for venting. It never really does any good, but I do feel a little better. I think Jessa has no "life" of her own except her kids, which is fine, but she has to hijack others to have something new and interesting to talk about. Joe and Kendra's house was really nice in the living room, kitchen and bedroom. I wonder if Joe and Kendra had any input there?

I can't even go there about the little girls becoming singers yet. Amy was even there. It looks like 19 kids and counting is pretty much completely back. I will save that rant for another time. I am so excited about some of the new stuff but just sick to my stomach over the old stuff they are bringing back. Sorry. My first thought is, however, that Amy and Deanna couldn't make much of a career for themselves, even with the Duggar connection, so they are now hitching their wagon to the little girls. They said Deanna wrote a song for them. Gag.

Willow said...

I really enjoyed the part where Jinger and Jeremy visited his parents and attended the gala. Good job on that story line TLC. New and different. I admire the Vuolos for having a way to help others.

Aunt Bea said...

Yes, I agree that Jessa needs to learn how to speak English properly. I'm tired of listening to her 'southern twang-speak'. It doesn't work for her IMO.

Betsy said...

I have to agree with Willow 100%!!! Jessa is a bossy know it all that wearing on everyones nerves. Just think of how many germs she and her entourage brought into that hospital after traveling through an airport and eating out.

Aimee said...

I enjoyed seeing Jeremy's family and hearing about the work they are doing. I was glad to see Jinger and Jeremy share more than just about themselves.
As for the little girls singing. WHY?! Poor girls! And why did they all say "my little sisters" when MacKenzie is clearly singing as well. And Josie, poor Josie, the "Star Spangled Banner" is VERY difficult to sing why on earth did they chose that for a little child? And why did Michelle have to be rightthere in the room with the girls. Whew. I am anxious to see the sales results from that musical gem.

Singing Duggaretts said...

Sorry to offend but there's not enough "new stuff" to excited me. In fact there's not enough to even interest me. I'm through with a show that is now gong to force little girls to sing in order to come up with another way to bring in the bucks. Perhaps they have realized that there have been enough weddings & pregnancies to last the viewers for awhile, so lets find something for the little girls. No sense in showing them being homeschooled when you can listen to them sing for a fee. Of course, it also gives everyone a chance to see Michelle as a stage mom, instead of the dedicated teacher she has been in the past.

Not from Duggarville said...

Unkowwn, I agree with you on the leftovers! It's one thing to not waste food but to try to impress your girfriend/fiance with "cooking skills" by re-heating leftovers is not impressive and rather disgusting! Hey, I "create" meals with my leftovers too but I do not when trying to make a special meal for a special someone.

Sis said...

I can't believe that midwife would show her face on camera after that delivery debacle!

Trish said...

Merriam-Webster definition of pimp....a criminal who is associated with, usually exerts control over, and lives off the earnings of one or more prostitutes.

How is JIM BOB DUGGAR any different?

Jo said...

The tackiest kitchen island award goes to Austin. Could have been a nice kitchen and he ruined it!!!!!!

Enjoyed seeing the Vuolos outside of Duggarville.

LilBit0318 said...

I agree with Jo. We haven't seen it 100% finished yet, but I think it was close enough that I can safely say that Joy and Austin's kitchen island was hideous-looking! I can guarantee that when/if they flip that house, that thing will be demolished and redone immediately.

The house sold in June.
