In the February 16th edition of I Scour the Internet, I quoted our very own 'Amused' for their observation "...But it does seem that whenever there are posts here questioning certain lacks/flaws in the Kody World image, they do then pick up the ball."
In that same issue, I started The Cricket Corner, where I highlighted those blatantly ignored tweets to the adult Browns from fans wanting to know when the next season of Sister Wives would begin. Even I was left wondering why the Browns were "keeping sweet" about the next season.
Imagine my delight when the Browns finally-FINALLY, through that busy babymaker Robyn (I'm the Meri !) Sullivan Brown, tweeted the following to all their tweet fans today:
Makes me wonder if the sudden announcement had anything to do with all those unanswered fans, on both Kody Brown Facebook fanpages as well as the adult Brown's Twitter accounts, scouring the internet for information, and finding it right here on SWB!
I'm waiting for Janelle to say "I don't know what the big deal is. Our fans already knew there was going to be another season."
Yeah, right.
Truthfully, I can't wait for the next season to start. Anderson Cooper's tweets are a hundred times more interesting - and he actually will answer Q U E S T I O N S! Imagine that!
Okay, so what have the Browns been up to this last week?
Meri was in Lehi for a(n)
Ya'll Come!...
Hey, sister wives do tweet each other!
...and later on Friday Meri tweeted:
Looks like Meri's not afraid to go to Lehi. She must love to drive...Disneyland, now Lehi. I wonder if she's driving the 'company' car Kody picked up in Texas?
Earth mother Christine tweeted about what's most important to her...the children
Guess Kody couldn't make it...
Awwwww....Mykelti's growing up!
But Robyn refused to be left out - and isn't it interesting that Robyn retweeted Kody's tweet so ALL her fans could see what the proud papa said about their offspring. Too bad he hasn't said anything about his toddler, Truley. She likes to read her books upside down, just like her daddy!
FYI Kody. Truley's cute too!
Well, that's all for now. Remember, I Scour the Internet so You Don't Have to!
Kody always ignores all of Christine's kids. Watch how little attention he pays Aspyn or Mykelti. They don't exist in his world.
ReplyDeleteFor the kids sake I am hoping he is more hands on than what we see. But I saw his reply to Maddie when she tweeted how she loved when her brother made her food and Kody tweeted that if Logan couldn't be persuaded to go instate to college, she would have to start making her own food in 6 months. Very cold.
DeleteYes I've watched when the whole
Deletefamily go out one time one of older boys were pick on one of girls Jody just stood there like he did not no what to do. So ithink it was Robin or meri. They pulled them apart and talked to the kids.but I don't get it why Jody doesn't declpline its almost to over welling and I know he wants them to love him. It makes it hard on the wives bless them.sincerely Ann
That must make Christine's blood boil. I look forward to the new season, have missed the crazy ol' gang.
ReplyDeleteI'm Team Trudy
ReplyDelete*Truely
DeleteMaybe it is because - contrary to Christine's and the other kids (except Mariah) - he actually MAY be on the birth certificate of Solomon?
ReplyDeleteIf I was any part of that family I would be a constantly and consistantly green eyed!
ReplyDeleteI can't believe their lawyer doesn't stop these moronic tweets.
ReplyDeleteThey live in constant fear of the scary Utah po po, remember??? They're freaking refugees.
Kody's fake tears boohoo my families suffering. Boohoo, I had to quit my job. Boohoo, Robyn's lost 50 lbs. Boohoo, I cant go back to Utah. His fans eat that stuff up too! It seems that his family is doing a lot better in Vegas - living in nice houses instead of that tacky falling apart polygamous designed house. Did Kody really have a job when he ran out of Utah? Isn't it funny how Robyn was still able to conceive a baby being so underweight because of the stress running from the Utah law?
DeleteWith the amount of sex Robyn and the Kodster have, no wonder she got knocked up so fast... Also I really doubt she lost 50 pounds....
DeleteWho is believing Kodz lies anyways?
Uhh, it is getting less and less *amusing* to even comment on these grifters.
ReplyDeleteBut I will soldier on in the name of SW BLOG solidarity....:))))))
Tweeting fools, all of them.
I agree..."if" they really still have a lawyer, it would seem likely that he or she would be telling them to lay low and not incur more attention to their comings and goings.
But then again, this is the Kody World Circus we are talking about. Public attention for them is what oxygen is for us normals. Once the horse was out of the Kody World barn via TLC....there's just no stopping this sideshow. They are all hardcore attention/kudo addicts now.
Now if we really wanted to mess with them...we would cease to say what we think the scripted episodes *should* be. We would stop giving them and *especially the TLC producers* ideas for better PR and image-building. We would just let them be the freak show that they have become and have all our fun after each episode.
I am wondering if the plan is already on paper this season to just let them finally self-destruct...???
As this being "the final season." That will get ratings too.
TLC milked the Kate/8 thing in just that way..knowing it was done but squeezing every last dollar right up to the ugly end.
We should do a count of how many "team-'kid of choice'" posts it takes for Kody to spend one-on-one time with each one. Wasn't it Logan first being exploited for being the oldest and most used of the kids, then Hunter who was abused and neglected...and so on. After the many posts about a child being neglected, then there was the show/tweet/post of their fun one-on-one time together. How long before he just does a daddy/daughter day with Truely after all the team-Truely posts?
DeleteOh please please PLEASE be right about TLC taking this the Kate/8 route! I relish- hell, I SALIVATE- over the idea of TLC throwing Kodouche and Robyn to the wolves like they did to that shrew Kate in that RV episode.
Delete"I'm the Meri"- beautiful Romy and Michelle reference, Lourdes!
Yep, I agree with Amused....I'm way over the hogwash too, & just waiting for the Browns crap to hit the fan...lol
ReplyDeleteI stumbled across this today, apparently Sister Wives Bio book will be available in May 2012. Available in hardcover & Ebooks. I wasn't aware that they were even going that route, but it doesn't surprise me either!!
Here's the link: http//authorssimonandschuster.com/Kody-Brown/85673763/books
Seriously hoping the finale of the upcoming new season, doesn't involve Robyn annnouncing another Brown bun in the oven (eyes rolling)....
It's kinda sad...their 15 minutes are ticking away fast, and the bunch of them thinking if the Dargers can co-write a book, why can't they? Doesn't it seem like they are always a day late and a dollar short? I wouldnt be the least surprised if it isn't that reverend women writing the book!
DeleteOnce TLC tires of them, as this could very well be Sister Wives last season, what else will the Browns have as a revenue stream? Even with all those loyal 'fans' they think they have, most of them are only at those OpDetox meetings to see them and take a picture, and not necessarily to pay money to buy the stuff they're hawking. At least not in the quanity Kody needs to finance his dream of striking it rich.
Pretty soon, Rosie ODonnell will stop tweeting them, and then they will only have that reverend woman who will most likely drop them like a hot potato once she finishes her book. Kody will try out for Dancing with the stars and be rejected, and Robyn will have pushed out another baby as a surrogate for Meri and Kody.
The only thing that would make this worthwhile would be if Kody marries wife #5, who immediately gets pregnant with twins while Robyn is pregnant. That I'd watch!
Me too! But lets go for Triplets!
DeleteSure, make it a litter! Seriously, why would Meri want another kid, she loves to travel around and do fun things with the older girls. Unless she is tired of her and Janelle doing the selling for the pyramid scheme. Even so, she'd be nuts to take on an infant at her age and stage in life. She didn't want fertility treatments in the first season when Kody offered. I think she just wanted sympathy, then when someone decides to help you out, it's Oh, never mind.
DeleteWatching Robyn have to compete with a new wife would be fantastic- but watching her compete with a new wife who is pregnant with multiples would be beyond my wildest dreams! Why in the hell did this poor struggling family need to buy new clothes for poor old Solomon Grundy? Have they not heard of hand me downs?
DeleteRobyn is too good for Janelle's or Christine's kids hand me downs
DeleteBut she did take Janelle and Christine's hand me down- she married him!
DeleteI didnt think it could get worse than the Brown's. But apparently it does. There is a website designed to "date" others to become polygamy families. www.sisterwifewanted.com
ReplyDeleteThere isn't an OMG!!! big enough to respond to this post. Had to go and look just to be sure it was real....and OMG!!!!!!
DeleteLMAO!!! Looks like somebody's making a buck. I wonder why Kody didn't think of this?
DeleteAnyone ever hear this story before? I hadn't and am not sure if it is a made-up story for online rumors.
ReplyDeleteI found it at: http://www.celebitchy.com/121131/sister_wives_meri_admits_she_wants_to_leave_kody_wants_more_kids_no_matter_what/
"It’s like the wives are trying to make sure that the children have normalcy and consistency while Kody’s aim is to have as many kids as possible. For instance Christine, Kody’s then-pregnant third wife, said on the last episode that she thought she was done having kids after she had five and a very difficult miscarriage last year. She explained that she’s 37 and said “I hemorrhaged and I passed out [during the miscarriage] and it was really horrible…” In a video on TLC’s website, Christine said that she didn’t want more kids after five as she was worried that it would burden her older kids to care for new ones. Her daughter Aspen, 14, convinced her to try again. However, in that same video Kody admits that he bribed Aspen to convince her mom to have more kids by offering the girl $100 if she was successful! Then when Aspen tried to ask for the hundred bucks he wouldn’t pay up."
The article goes on to say a lot of other things but I had to re-read that paragraph with my mouth hanging open. After being horrified by being close to death because of being pregnant, Kody uses the other kids to "pursuade" Christine to have another baby regardless of her feelings???????? Could you imagine the daily fear she went through during the whole pregnancy?
Yes. There was a scene in the first season where the kid was trying to collect on Kody's promise for the dough.
DeleteUnbelievable. Why do people love this creep so much when he won't even pay up on a bet he made with his child? If he'll renege on his own flesh and blood, imagine what he would do with a stranger. It would be best people keep their money at a safe distance from his reach so they wont wind up empty handed!
DeleteI wonder how far Kody's hairline has receded since last season?
ReplyDeletehttp://www.celebitchy.com/121131/sister_wives_meri_admits_she_wants_to_leave_kody_wants_more_kids_no_matter_what/
ReplyDeleteThanks to Anon 5:48 PM for posting this. I did take the time to go read it.
Not "new" news but worth re-reading to get even more affirmation on just how twisted this group really is.
And since there IS to be another season....
If they want to be just a side-show of less than bright people playing badly at being responsible adults, and have a world audience watching them do it......so be it....until the world gets bored.
I have no problem with people living their "life-style" in their own little, closed world, making their own rules, doing their own thing. Quietly and with some semblance of dignity !!!
Hell, have 30 kids if that's *their* thing.
(of course, the welfare of a hoard of children like this will always make one wonder about the quality of their care and their ultimate well-being.)
AS LONG AS.......
They do not expect *and solicit" via tweets, FB and paid TLC show* ......anything *from others* to support *their* choices.
Be it through government handouts, dishonest/easy bankruptcies- thereby shamelessly sticking others with their debts, conning(duping) fans into sending gifts, phony lawsuits, sham businesses, contrived scenarios to engender sympathy....etc, etc.
If this is their REAL game, then they well deserve any and all criticisms.
Has anyone seen this book that the sister wives and Kody are bringing out:
ReplyDeletehttp://www.amazon.com/Sister-Wives-Kody-Brown/dp/1451661215/ref=sr_1_2?s=books&ie=UTF8&qid=1331073750&sr=1-2
What's the bet that it's a total snooze-fest and just a re-hash of everything we've already been told?
BUT....check out Janelle on the front cover?! Has that beefcake trainer guy worked his magic or do I smell photoshop?
This is the same book Caramel B. mentioned above. What I find interesting is the promise of "honesty and frankness" of the Brown's answers to questions about their lifestyle. Yeah, right...
DeleteI'm not holding my breath on the honesty and frankness part. Yep, that's either photoshopping (how 'honest') to give Janelle that 'hint' of a waistline, or she's wearing a defective spanx that leaves the rolls of belly fat intact while cinching in her side to fake a waistline. Sorry Browns but you won't be getting one of my dollars on this obvious attempt to drain their fans pocketbooks even further.
Yep, I say totally photoshopped book cover bc she didn't look that slim in the super bowl party tweet pic & also with all the make up slimming tricks out there, the face is the easiest to insta-slim..lol
DeleteI'm w/ C.J, on the Browns not getting any of my $$ either...smh I'll just wait til my local library has it available or if I come across it @a yard sale or thrift store in the next year, then I won't mind spending 25 cents for it...lol
I'm just curious how many of their "fans" will rush out to buy it. I'm sure they'll try to set up a book signing somewhere if they can. But I wonder how that would work? Would they all show up or Kody+1 wife? or Kody +Robyn? Either way, people wont be getting theirs $$ worth & like CJ pointed out, they definitely won't be 100% honesty & frankness!!
Wow, check out Kody's retreating hairline on the cover of that book! Looks like the little patch up front has formed an island. He could go for the unicorn look if he just used a little product. Put some product on the side and he can get the Bozo flip do!
ReplyDelete"What I find interesting is the promise of "honesty and frankness" of the Brown's answers to questions about their lifestyle. Yeah, right..."
ReplyDelete"Yeah, right" is sooo right, Cynical Jinx !!!
*Browns* with "honesty and frankness".....an oxymoron for sure !!!
Ugh I know I love reading there tweets but get annoyed at the same time. Aspyn tweeted she got a CAR!! I don't think any of the other kids have cars and they are all complaining they are "broke" ugh they need to get better priorities...
ReplyDeleteHey I wonder if Logan got a car!!
DeleteAfterall he is the oldest & will be going off to college in the fall!
Kody's tweet to Maddie, about if they can't get him to go to a local college....Haha...I guarantee U, that Logan wants to go anywhere to collge, but locally, b/c then he will officially be relieved of babysitting duty! Run Logan run, as fast as U can... :D
Well, they say it was Aspyn that convinced Christine to have Truely. Maybe Kody's finally paying up on his bribe.
ReplyDeleteAnd how sick is it that an adult woman with *5* children could be "talked into" having yet another pregnancy she admits she did not want to do....
ReplyDelete....talked into it by her *14 year old* daughter !!!!!
How pathetic is that???
Hmmmm, how did that go....
"Come on, Mom, come on....make your weekly night with dear ol Dad count....
Get those ovaries going. You need to get pregnant again."
FF to the morning after....
"Okay, Aspyn, Okay...we did it last night. Happy now?"
And weeks later when Christine announces her news....
"Hey Dad, remember our deal....when do I get paid the 100 bucks?"
And these people want the world to view them as normal ???????
It is not that absurd in the context of the entire situation. Once you abandon the idea of human relationships that are about nurturing and mutual support and dive into a structure, such as polygamy, that is by its very nature the opposite of nurturing and supportive, where women are hoarded in order to serve as baby factories, then the sky is the limit. The public devaluation of these women that results from Kody's public actions might be just a faint echo of what goes on when the cameras are turned off. Very scary.
DeleteMaybe there will be hidden camera footage or outtake reels when the show finally ends, and we'll see some of the rest of it.
Maybe Christine had to be pregnant or get pregnant in order for TLC to pick up the series. I mean, they had to have some grand finale to the 1st season debut....then since they're lives really weren't that fascinating, they had to add a 4th wife in order to get another TLC season, then y'all already know the rest...(eyes rolling) ...after the "forced" move to Vegas & Robyn getting knocked up & delivery...what better way squeeze another season, than Robyn offering Meri to be a surrogate, when we all know the Ill conceived notion was basically for ratings + w/ Meri being in the homestretch of motherhood.....hahaha Good try Robyn, but looks like Meri will have lots more kid free time than U will & that means more alone time w/ her legal husband!! :)
ReplyDeleteI'm thinking that TLC has already told the Browns the only way there will be a season 5 would be if Robyn acts as a surrogate for Meri. Depending on how well their other business ventures go they may need the extra security that income from TLC will provide. They have new cars, next would be the compound houses on the property they looked at. Let's hope they are paying cash and not financing!
DeleteI think their next gig should involve celebrity boxing...Christine VS Robyn...
ReplyDeleteHahaha!!! I would buy tickets to that event.
DeleteHow could anyone believe that God ordained this kind of lifestyle? That God is just some horney vain dude; using women to produce children? How sad. So sad. I know that Christine really loved her husband and was willing to share him, because she was the "favorite". She was secure in that position. But, when he left her to have another woman; she felt as if there were something wrong with HER, and he needed someone else. She was old, fat and used up. He didn't toss her aside completely, but emotionally, he really did. And so now she is made to feel bad because she is "jealous". Something is really wrong with HER...well, there isn't! Anti-depressents can not take away a NORMAL feeling! They can not help her with natural normal feelings. There is nothing wrong with HER, except that since she was a child she has been brainwashed into thinking this is the "restored" gospel! This is a made up self serving "gospel" which caters to the flesh of man, uses women and hurts society! Jesus said that husbands should treat their WIFE as HE, Jesus, treated the church. Jesus died for the church. Jesus put his own needs and comforts, lusts and self on a cross and died to this earthly life. Kody puts his needs, wants and lusts FIRST. This isn't God in the making. It is a fleshly deception. I pray for Christine and her children. I really do. I have a burden for them.
ReplyDeleteI think it was yesterday, but Kody posted a tweet pic of Savannah & Gabriel...stating HE was out w/ them alone shopping for shoes & eating @In & Out Burger....HHmmmmm??? Guess his PR team is snooping the SWB, trying to do damage control of him trying or pretending to be a very involved, hands on dad!!
ReplyDeleteAlso, Janelle tweeted about not really wanting to, but has to be done: TAXES!!
Wonder how they claim & file?? Who's head of what household?
Is there any special business tax break credits in Vegas? If so, I'm thinking that's why they moved there, so they wouldn't have to pay alot on the TLC$$income, that they received in 2011. I'm sure, they'll claim a loss on the LIV & Pampered Chef...b/c there are some loopholes. If U invested so much, but didn't sell as much. U can count it as a loss.
But, I'm sure they'll bleed all of the loopholes & tax breaks dry!! Even tho, I think, they invested a lot of their $$ to buy LIV products, but at the same time, they made a % of it back, plus moving on up the level ladder.
Today, Poor Hunter tweeted about being very pissed off!! My curiosity is definitely peaked!!...lol
Kody did post on 3/7. Interesting but the Brown PR team still seems to be moving slow like molasses. When you read the tweet you can almost hear the 'duh' 'duh' 'what do I say' bouncing inside Kody's head. Hey Kody, it's time for your 'people' to be PROactive rather than REactive!
DeleteI have a feeling Lourdes will have something to say about this!
People who only know how to be reactive eventually think they are being proactive and can't figure out why other people don't understand.
DeleteIthink Nevada has no income tax.
DeleteBut they still have to pay federal taxes via the IRS.
DeleteMolasses.....hahaha...ain't that the truth?? :D .....definitely looking forward to Lourdes thoughts! Always insightful & entertaining =)
ReplyDeleteI just found this show a couple of weeks ago and watched every episode, and then found this great blog. I have lots to say, but just want to start by saying Kody is an idiot but I love the wives! Including Robyn, I'm surprised she gets such a bad rap around here, I don't think she has any bad intentions, I think she gets scapegoated. I have lots
ReplyDeleteof opinons on polygamy and other things that I will post as I can. In the meantime thank you for this interesting blog!
Welcome! Please enjoy your stay!
DeleteAwwww, Robyn finally posted.
DeleteWill there be "tears" on SWB now?
Delete"tears" when Robyn's voice warbles and halts. By that I mean that her voice is not smooth and normal; it breaks up with pauses. That is what it is to halt and warble. That is not what it is to have normal talking. Some might think it is, but it isn't.
To anon 11:31 from anon 11:53:
ReplyDeleteUmmmm, I'm not Robyn, I just think she's a good human being with a good heart. Is this kind of sarcasm and attack ok on this blog?
Well, it's been my observation that Sister Wives Blog (SWB) opinions can be considered by some as sarcastic, and perhaps even critical of the Brown family adults and others who made the decision to go public with their polygamous lifestyle. But remember it is an opinion that is being stated here, and everyone has the right to express it.
DeleteOff topic derogatory comments about a another person's comment, flame baiting and/or flame wars are not tolerated.
I agree completely that everyone has a right to express their opinion. I most certainly have disagreements with and criticisms of the Brown family. For me personally, I was looking for a place for respectful disagreement and debate about the issues raised by this show. I think sarcastic responses to comments are disrespectful of everyone. So I will probably just step out of this conversation. But I do appreciate the blog.
ReplyDeleteDoes anyone else think that Meri is taking a LOT of trips away from Vegas lately? She seems to go to Utah quite a bit (and CA). I'm beginning to think that she really doesn't want to be in that marriage and is finding excuses to not be around.
ReplyDeleteCould be. Maybe Kody is courting his 5th. Anyone new appearing on twitter lately?
DeleteI noticed that too. I wonder if it's bc Mariah is living & going to school in Utah? Also, For LIV biz too...but I know one thing, it definitely blows their affidavit statement all to hell that they "fear" to return to Utah, bc they might go to jail...even tho they have never Ben formerly charged w/ anything yet!! ...smh...Ugghhhh, they seriously just irk my ass nerves!!
DeleteOf course, she doesn't want to stick around Vegas to babysit, ESP when it's Robyns night w/ Kody...lol Would U?? .. I wonder if the reality of being a Brown has finally hit Robyn & it's not all what she expected. She was thinking that she would have the moms & older kids @ her beck & call, but that's just not the case...lol
IMO, I think Meri's absence also tells us that she didn't take Robyn up on her surrogacy offer. I think Meri saw right thru her intentions from a mile away & decided to take the high road...go Meri!
Now, I'm sure Robyn will end up announcing she's preggers again, bc well, in all reality, that's really her main purpose of being there, right? A younger, FERTILE, "wife".... I guess for some, reality does bite!!
Yes...Poor Robyn. Boo Hoo!
DeleteProbably it has finally occurred to Wife #4 that her role, once the jungle sex and glory-filled spotlight of being the "new love" is over, and now she is simply the official, resident Kody *baby-maker*...and now that she is just a ho-hum *one of the four* of Kody's Khirls...it probably isn't so much fun...or so attention-getting.
How tough it must for her to see Meri happily getting in her car and making tracks to get out of Dodge whenever the spirit moves her.
Or Christine focused on her kids' school, sports or hopefully her own self-improvement activities.
Or Janelle talking about such wordily things as taxes, or fronting for their *businesses.*
OHHH.....Such is the life of the in-house *fertile* Kody mare.
I thing I get from the show is that the women base their sense of self on their relationship with the "head of the family" (aka Kody) so they won't see being the favorite or the baby-factory as being a bad thing. They are, in fact, getting the attention that they have been raised to try and achieve.
DeleteI have seen on a few of the shows how the Brown women have said things like - you are the head of the family and we will abide by your wishes - that they would fawn over the fact that they are getting "a lot" of attention by being pregnant. How much attention do they get after the baby is born...other than birthdays or anniversaries when the cameras are rolling. It is sad really....
Can't imagine anyone wanting Robyn around if it wasn't for her being baby-machine. Srsly, she's whiney, holier-than-thou, and has zero personality
DeleteI think Kody found the three loves of his life years ago, and Robyn is only there to be a fill-in womb.
It is about time for Robyn to be pregnant again.
ReplyDeleteTo the Anonymous poster who happened upon the blog: The word is C A T T Y not cady...Thank you but "we people" already have a life AND dictionaries.
ReplyDeleteThere is a new show called "Leave it to Niecey" in the Sunday SW time slot. I wonder what's up with that.
ReplyDeleteyes, Truley is adorable!
