16 and Pregnant

[sparklymouse]

The promos for the new season look like they've jumped into Jerry Springer land.

Well, they tried to wrap that season up in a nice little package, didn't they?

Unfortunately we know that white trash hatin' Farrah and her whiny mom do NOT get along and suddenly appreciate each other. And obviously Farrah did not settle herself down and spend all of her days with her baby at the zoo and music class. The domestic disturbance was about Farrah not staying home with her baby.

Does anyone believe that angry Amber and lazy Gary are going to make it? Although they did show a preview of their little session with Dr. Drew, and Amber might be pregnant (lovely, just lovely!). I have to say, little Leah is the saddest looking of all the babies.

Ryan is a useless douche. I would like to know if Maci wanted to be that doormatty, or if MTV wanted the drama of the in and out (so to speak) boyfriend?

And finally Catelynn and Tyler. They showed it all out of order. The letter from the adoptive parents congratulated them on their engagement (they didn't read that part for the cameras, but I saw the words quickly), and Catelynn had on her ring. But I guess they needed to save that for a feel-good ending/cliffhanger. I couldn't help but feel it was a disaster for two teenagers to be engaged. I hope Tyler does follow through on joining the military and getting some sort of life going. As it is, the two of them and the MTV cameras - constantly egging them on to cry about their lost baby - is destructive, at best.

Tyler needs to give Ryan adult lessons. Ryan's such a spoiled asshole. I hate him. I hope Maci can get some college in. I don't think breaking up with Ryan will make that LESS likely, since he wasn't helping her anyway. And his parents seem like nice if not dormatty people, so I bet they'll keep paying for Bentley for a while.

God help us if Amber is pregnant again. that is just WRONG.

I hope Dr. Drew is really really mean to Flighty Farrah.

That finale was a total letdown. Bring on the new trainwrecks! I like Maci, but I could only take so much of the Maci/Ryan rollercoaster. Bentley is such a cutie. I hope his dad's douchey-ness doesn't rub off on him as he gets older. I guess that won't be a problem, seeing as how his dad doesn't pay attention to or spend any time with him at all. I was cracking up when Ryan's dad said he should stick with his talents and sell hot dogs on the street.

The one girl that I really liked was Whitney, and she didn't do the Teen Mom show. She had a trashy family situation, but she was very sweet and her guy seemed OK too. Maybe that didn't make for good enough TV and they went with these drama queens.

I feel like my head is going to explode listening to their grammar. Seriously, what does it take to stop people from saying "Me and ..."!!?

One of those poor babies was named Bentley? Oh dear.

Prounounced Bintly with her southern accent.

Actually, I think Whitney probably wasn't on Teen Mom because her baby ended up having major health problems. I think they said on the finale special that it was some kind of liver disorder? I thought her boyfriend seemed like the nicest one, but she was sooo whiny and baby-voiced that I could barely listen to her. IIRC she is the one whose redneck mama was pregnant at the same time as her, so I think there would have been plenty of drama available.

Mizz Farrah really doesn't have 1 single clue does she?
All that BS about being *only* able to go out for 2-4 hours once a week without her child, when she does have a job and school getting her out and about made me furious. I am almost 33, married, children born in wedlock, career, college degree, and sainted husband who does all the housework, and I get a "fun night out" maaaaaybe every 4-6 weeks. And I live 3 blocks from my parents. People have lives and it isn't their job to watch my kids so my husband and I (or us seperatly) can play. If we really want a date, we have to pay a sitter, which is not cheap, even in Kansas, where the movie ticket is cheaper than 1 hour of babysitter time.

Yeah, Farrah is a little spoiled brat.

I was really bothered by how Dr. Drew seemed to be trying to push Maci and Ryan back together. Um, did he even see the show? Obviously Ryan would benefit from being with Maci-- after all, he didn't have to do anything at all in the relationship and she was way too good for him. But why in the hell should Maci have to be with him just because they have a child together? How is it possibly good for a child for his mother to be stuck with an ungrateful, selfish loser, even if it is his father? I can see where Ryan should be working on having a relationship with his son, but Maci has tried to be with Ryan and he obviously isn't willing to change. Then Dr. Drew had the nerve to say that they are both too set in their ways. What demands did Maci make beyond wanting Ryan to spend time with his son every now and then and to not stay out until six in the morning partying? Good Lord. Dr. Drew is such a moron. I hate even calling him "Dr."
