Anyone still watching? Mugsy?  Julia is hella annoying. I now like Ray Romano, very much. And, Team Joel! I grow so weary of all of Sarah's bumbling successes. |

Eh, I don't know if I'm team Joel. He hasn't given much of a reason to blow up his entire family. But Julia is being ridiculous. Clearly, being a SAHM is not her thing, so go back to work already. And keep your pants on, what is with the Braverman sibs boinking people who are supposed to help Max?
Because, god knows, that little shit needs all the help he can get. The school his parents are starting is ridiculous. I love TWOP's nickname for it - Snowflake Academy.

Seriously! My husband was all- "Um, isn't that Crosby's job? To bang the help?"
I think that Julia is pretty selfish but clueless about being selfish- I think she genuinely is just spoiled and doesn't get how other people feel. I sorta agree that Joel has really done his own damage now, but he spent years being the perfect husband. Poor Ed...saw that dis coming.
I rather love that lead singer guy. He's funny.

I am rooting for a Joel/Julia divorce. I want to see the show depict a divorce where the dad isn't a deadbeat. Frankly, I wouldn't want to be married to the other one in either of their shoes now.
And I want Julia to hook up with Roy from the Office...eventually. When she's ready.

OMG!! That IS Roy from the Office! I could not figure out where in the heck I had seen him before! Thank you for that. I would agree, but clearly nice, stable men that are all adoring and huggable are not Julia's thing.  |

I just don't understand how they can sell that spectacular house. Although my guess is that it will be turned into the Charter School for Max and... for Max.

I can't wait until the Snowflake Academy is up and running and Kristina and Adam have to deal with other parents of Asperger kids, who are just as demanding as they are. They can't all be right about everything all the time! Will Adam and Kristina learn to compromise where Max is concerned and teach him the same, or will,their school fail because no,one wants to pay thousands of dollars to send their child to the Max Braverman Empirical Academy?
I love Camille and Zeek's house, but I can see why she wants to sell. It's pretty obvious that Zeek doesn't lift a finger to help in the house, the kids and their families expect her to run a 24/7 hotel whenever they need a place to stay, and by Zeek's own admission, he hasn't kept up the maintenance of the place. After many years, little things constantly falling apart can wear on you.

I've gotten to the point where I fast forward through all the Max bullshit and all the Ray Romano bullshit (which means I never see Lorelei), which I feel like is now half the show, but whatever. I've never been able to stand Ray Romano. (Did I just become the person that used the character names of other shows? I can't remember who the hell is who anymore. haha.) I LOVE Joel (well, the actor), but it's become super obvious that he's not a good match with Julia. If they get divorced, I hope they still keep him in the show. I never watched The Office, but is the guy y'all are talking about the teacher that went on the field trip when Max's canteen was pissed into? haha. As dislike-able as Julia is has become, I'd ship the hell out of that. |

Ray Romano is the actor. He played Ray Barone on ELR. But "Lorelei" is played by Lauren Graham. The character she plays in Parenthood is Sarah. |

Okay Joel, now you decide to give Julia a second chance? Ugh, writers, such a trope.
And of course, Kristina's dying friend leaves her money for Snowflake Academy. How convenient.
Note that Adam and Kristina have money for whatever whim comes along, whereas Crosby doesn't have enough to fix his house. Aren't they partners? Don't they get paid the same?
