So he could get Logan's full episode share. But being he is of majority age Logan can keep that money and have it paid directly to him, cutting his dad out of the chance to profit off him. Kody and Mary would not like the fact they would miss out on that money. <br /><br />Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1083130180732134503.post-27634147319005468402012-11-24T21:11:33.264-05:002012-11-24T21:11:33.264-05:00We live in a big house now & we're looking...We live in a big house now & we're looking to downsize in the Spring since we're new empty nesters.

In fact, when Morales practically spelled it out for him in that one on one interview (she said Christine was obviously upset and near tears) Kody gets this look on his face and says..."you asked me a question, I stated to you where I was at the time." Clearly, this man has a major screw loose in his head where he could't see his words hurt Christine and he wasn't about to apologize for it.<br /><br />I have a feeling that's where he differs from Joe Darger. Even though we haven't seen the Dargers in a reality setting yet, I think Joe has the media savvy NOT to make the same mistakes Kody has. Even now when you check out the Darger's blog, Joe seems to acknowledge the not so complimentary comments where Kody makes a point of saying how he just deletes them. I don't think Joe would ever say something like Kody did.<br /><br />Kody is just too much of an egotistical fool to think he's done anything wrong.

Every one of them is from Mormon country and was raised by the rules of the Book of Mormon. Those facts alone make them different from most of America. As much as the LDS put on a front of normalcy, in private they take pride in being a "peculiar people". Kody's current group, the AUB, are even more unusual.<br /><br />Where might have been interesting for this show is if this family had taken on a fourth wife from another part of America and who had no Mormon background. I would assume that the polygamist groups would take a female "recruit". The audience could have learned along with the fourth wife what makes this group tick.Magic Undiesnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1083130180732134503.post-19038545136825347172012-11-24T18:43:11.278-05:002012-11-24T18:43:11.278-05:00I was just reading the Q&A they did last month...I was just reading the Q&A they did last month and Christine must live in a delusional bubble because she said that she loved her life and never wanted to work but just to stay at home and be the Princess.

I remember that some of us here at SWB thought that the next season would have Kody and Christine going out and having nachos and 'laughing' at that whole situation....kind of to calm the extreme negative response from the fans towards Kody after that incident. I am actually kind of surprised we haven't seen any attempt to show fans that Kody is not the insensitive jerk that he acted like during that interview. They blew a huge opportunity to 'laugh at themselves"...instead any interactions we see between Kody and Christine are filled with venom. Kody does little to hide his distain for Christine. Think of how horrible Christine must feel about herself and their marriage. Anyone with any sort of media savvy would have spun that into a fun, Christine and Kody go out for Nachos and have a good laugh about the 'misunderstanding'. I think that says a lot about what really goes on in the families.

I fell in love with this show the first season because I was astonished to see a "plural" marriage that seemed to have normal people in it. Christine and Janelle and Meri laughed a lot-- they really seemed to enjoy each other and they seemed to enjoy Kody's quirks. They appeared to be having fun and enjoying their lives. I was delighted.<br /><br />Then it started going downhill. It was SO FAKE when they tired to hurry up and run out of Utah, acting like "the law" was chasing them. So fake.<br /><br />But I must totally agree with CJ that this last episode takes the cake.<br />Every single moment felt like I was being used -- I kept thinking "How stupid do they think the audience is?"hopespringseternalhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01422336605638766188noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1083130180732134503.post-7724887094673200032012-11-24T18:08:13.629-05:002012-11-24T18:08:13.629-05:00Agreed!

I am so disappointed in Meri's behavior -- all of these people have to live off of whatever money comes in, and it's not fair to ANY of them when Meri takes more resources than she needs. Even if she were working full time, she does not need a huge house when she is soon to be living mostly alone. I think she is behaving very selfishly. I wish they would speak more about their religious beliefs -- it is really "ok" in their religion to take more than you need?hopespringseternalhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01422336605638766188noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1083130180732134503.post-11915768041437719082012-11-24T17:50:52.450-05:002012-11-24T17:50:52.450-05:00I found Robin's sister on FB.

I know it is hard to loose weight but I do have to say, I was surprised that she had not lost and appeared to have even gained weight. I can't imagine how it would feel to be the biggest one in the family. She is certainly the most likable in my opinion.Lyndyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02900710743943022805noreply@blogger.com
