So are you trying to tell me to get over it?

Nope. I wouldn't say that, nor did I intend for you to misinterpret my post in that way. Sorry if I offended you. Sunshyne is right, lets lay this to rest. It's pretty off topic, partly my fault too. (still don't know what wooo saiii means, but I am guessing it's an inhale/exhale type thing.)

Just what is the topic of this section anyway.... Thanks for trying to get back on topic. Are either of these shows still on and, do they show new families? Or, are they still re-running old shows? I haven't caught any on my TiVO lately so don't know what is happening.

Everyone owned us??? Not sure what that means, but whatever. Auntie, I haven't seen either of these shows in a few weeks. Then again there has not been anything really new on TV since a week or so before Christmas. Hopefully new shows will be on soon.

this show stresses me out, but I still watch it. I want to yell at some of these people. Some folks don't deserve to have children. It does make me feel like a better parent though.

I think that's why they make these shows. They make most everyone shine in comparison. I think they make people think that even though their family or their parenting skills are on the low side (compared to the families they show), they make them feel that they are way better than those families that are shown.

I'm telling you this show is unreal. The mom reading the books is killing me. Better than any sitcom. And she thinks they liked it??!! English and French??!!! Ay yi yi. Actually it is very sad--Rob and Ann Marie that is. Why did Ann Marie marry Rob in the first place?

We were all on the floor laughing. Thank you Ann Marie for the laughs. Wow, Ann Marie is a real piece of work. I can't remember the last time I almost cried from laughing so hard. The Wisconsin family are saints for being able to take all that is Ann Marie. Wow.

DARN! I got to watch the first 15 mins and then a friend I hadnt heard from for weeks called on the phone I heard about that lady thinking she was 'educating' the farm family. ROTFL Reading french/english books and showing them the pictures like they were in kindergarten? That sounds hilarious and I wish I never answered the phone. What I couldnt believe was the attitude of the Florida wife and the way she treated her husband of 13 yrs. He seemed so nice and obviously is a Great income earner. She seemed so shallow and all she talked about to the Farm family was all of her 'possessions' at home. She has no idea what her husband does>? Good lord!! I sure hope that the nice Farm wife will help Rob come out of his shell abit and show him that not all women are like his wife. Self-absorbed is a good description of her. I guffawed at her comment about her husband's looks and what she thought when she met him. As if she is a gorgeous princess and he was a frog who was 'below her status' or something!! I thought she was very average looking and definitely not in prime shape regardless of her claiming to run. This show seems well casted. Where in the world do they find these people?? I cant believe that they are misguided, self deluded enough to want to be shown on a TV show!! Mind you, I guess the 50,000 would be an incentive.

I would love to be with Anne Marie while she watched the show and saw what the farm kids really thought of her, and how she came across. But she probably would have a defensive rational ready to put out there. Some people refuse to see the truth when its in front of them and millions of others. Her poor kids, and her husband will see it all too clearly.

Anne Marie's cluelessness had me in stitches last night. When does she think these farm kids are going to do the Electric Slide? The children's French/English books were too much. I loved how the farm father said this was the longest week of his life and it was only the end of the second night. My heart was aching for the farm family - but I did laugh when they ran out into the field to get away from Anne Marie and she came after them with more books to read. Another question, how many women wash and style their hair before they go running?

I thought it was very sweet of the blonde woman to help that large family get fit by taking them running in the morning. And it was so nice that the dog went along, too! When I saw him earlier in the episode he looked so listless because of lack of exercise, but during the run he seemed so happy and peppy--like a different animal! It's a shame those children are so stand-offish, though, especially the young man. He looked disconnected from everything. I wonder whether he might have some medical issues that haven't been addressed. [Did anyone else notice that the woman who went to Florida looked like Roseanne did back in the day? It was uncanny. I'm sure glad Roseanne doesn't look like THAT any more! Heehee!] How weird was it that the large farm mother conflated looking at men and appreciating their bodies with wanting to fool around?! Hello, lady! You can look at men and appreciate their arms without going to bed with them. What decade does she live in? It's unfortunate that the blonde mother has two terrible habits: her hair is far too blonde and looks just crazy. And she cannot pronounce French to save her life. I can't imagine how she made "Je suis fatigué" sound like "juh swiss fatigued," but she did it. She might want to brush up on elementary French before she presumes to teach it to others. Maybe she should have learned the "Achy Breaky" to teach to the family she was visiting, as I'm sure that would have been more useful to them than the Electric Slide. confession: i really wanted to post something really favorable about the blonde woman just for laughs, but i can't really bring myself to do it. this is the best i can do...and it's lame. she was really kinda yucky.

This show was hilarious. Just loved the family hiding in the field, while she was rummaging around looking for another book to read to them. Poor lady is clueless. OMG, her French pronunciation was the worst! No French speaking person would understand one word.

My DH said Rob appeared to be her 'meal ticket' and that would appear to be a possiblity...it's nice to have someone go 'somewhere' and do 'something' all day so that she can sit at the beach etc...

Sunshyne, one word for you...TIVO!! Next week they will show a little of this weeks show, so you can catch the highlights then. I couldn't stop laughing when AM was trying to revive the chicken!!!! Like the chicken only had heat stroke because it's not used to the hot weather like she is "in Florida". I think the Florida sun has baked her brain!! Maybe she should have made her famous Chicken Marcellus, or whatever it's called. I couldn't stop laughing when she was reading to them, either!! I was waiting for "see Spot run!!" I can't wait till next week to see how she spends their money. I bet she has them take dance lessons, and French classes to show them how they really should live!! HOOO HOOOO!!!!

I am curious about what the young farm girl is refering to when she says "I can't believe it was all a lie!" They show it for the preview for next week.

I wasn't sure I saw right...did the Florida husband keep his pb&j in the microwave? And is that all he says he eats?
