Happy Post-Thanksgiving! We’re in that magical, stressful time between Thanksgiving and the winter holidays / end of the year. Let’s take a breather from food, family, work, debt and all the other madness to visit the Browns! If you haven’t been watching and you need to catch up, check out the previous recaps:

So APPARENTLY there were TWO episodes of Sister Wives on November 20. How did I miss the second one?!?! Oh, I watch this shiz on the internets and Amazon.com didn’t have the second episode from the 20th up the next day. BOOO. You know what that means, though – we’re having another SISTER WIVES DOUBLE HEADER RECAP this week! WHOOO!
Let’s hit the highlights of these two episodes:
Theo and Mona are back!!!
THEO SHOW! I’m seriously considering driving to Vegas to buy furniture from this man. Who’s with me??
JANELLE DOES YOGA! Namaste.

Kody has a boys’ night and gets in the ring…in his jeans?
It’s not gay if you keep your pants on…I guess
Bill and Christine have more chemistry than Kody and Christine! AWKWARD!
Look closely, that’s not a group hug! Bow-chicka-wow-wow!
Some of the kids are coming around while the others are still not into Vegas…or Robyn.
“Solomon is related to you. At least his genes from the sperm are related to you. You half to at least half-love him!”
The S-dubs have been having weekly lunches to bond!
Like Sex in the City 2 except not painfully embarrassing or depressing
Christine tries to make up for her past resentment and jealousy towards Robyn with an embroidery!
“I was going to write ‘Sorry my resentment bled into the hearts of the children and turned them against you’ but they didn’t have a pattern for it at Michaels and it wouldn’t fit anyway”
Robyn’s Baby is HERE!!!
Welcome Baby Solomon! You’re never going to have to take the rap for ANYTHING since you’ve got 16 people to pin your crimes on!
Oh, and THIS HAPPENS:

Bitches, the last five minutes of the last episode MADE ME CRY. Also, I take back everything I snarky I’ve ever uttered about Robyn because after this episode, I understand a bit more where she is coming from, and she makes an offer to Meri that means a lot, and I love Meri, so…DAMMIT I’VE GONE SOFT. This show has made me all kinds of emotional – I can feel cracks around the ice of my cold, dead heart! SIDENOTE – I had this friend back in the day who, when I would complain about being cold, would tell me it was from my cold, dead heart. What a dick, hahaha! Actually, I miss that fucker. I should email him. DO YOU SEE WHAT IS HAPPENING TO ME???
The family is finally coming back together after all the stress of moving and a new wife and kids. This is the first time in a long time that the wives seem happy and bright instead of exhausted, tired and pissed. Thanks to Solomon, the baby-glue bringing them all together, the family seems to be healing and moving forward. They’re even looking at creating new homes on one property. They found a nice cul-de-sac and you can feel the hope and the excitement as they talk about how it great it would be to finally have one place again.
I will have a recap up for you this week – there is SO MUCH to cover, and I want to get it all in there. I hope that your holiday season has gotten off to a great start, and I look forward to hearing your thoughts on the last two episodes!

I’m going to reiterate my belief that women should be confined to Modesty Huts once they have become noticeably pregnant. Nobody wants to see the groaning, sweating, no make-up, push-breathe-push faces. Or the wonky, discolored belly buttons. Or hear about how much they have to pee. Baby stuff should all be mercifully kept out of the public eye. When the baby stops looking like an angry little lobster, and its head isn’t all sqooshy anymore, and the mother’s FUPA is under control, then they can leave the Modesty Hut.
Did anyone see that picture of Janelle doing yoga and think “Weebles wobble but they don’t fall down?”
NWMTV, I keep tellin’ ya – Janelle is my fave and ya gotta stop dissin’ her! She’s amazing! She carries this bunch! You’d turn to food, too, if that was all you had!!!
Actually, I was pretty impressed with Janelle’s form while doing yoga. It does show that she’s working on getting more fit. It’s just going to take a while for casual viewers to see the difference. Although these people really need to change their diets to start seeing better results. I say as I have another donut…
If I had four wives, four houses, and (insert number) kids, and had to sex up Janelle, it wouldn’t be food I’d turn to. It would be Internet porn. I would never see the light of day. Or leave my room. Pixalated love would be my solace. They’d start calling me Lawnmower Man.
notwithout wants women to go back to the Dark Ages when they used to have to go into a dark room for about two months, stare at four walls for 24 hours on end, deliver by being tied to the bedposts and staying out of sight until the baby is christened (stopped looking ugly if there’s no christening) and the mom is back to a size 0 or can at least lace up to a size 0 in her corsets. Should we also carry around our smelling salts because we are so delicate the sight of a bumble bee would give us the swoons? LOL!
Can’t wait for the full recap! Oh, and notwithoutmytv is a terrible and hilarious man.
@saffie: Oh, of course not on the smelling salts. I’m no monster.
@notwithoutmytv…preaching to the choir. No one wants to hear about that mucus plug, either, or go to the damn baby shower. Sometimes there are babies THERE!
If the Browns get a puppy, then I’m interested.
‘Course, then we’d have to listen to 3 parents and 5 kids interview about how raising the puppy is a direct example of living for God or some self-important and utterly incomprehensible bullshit, so never mind on the puppy, either.
There is no smelling salts or swooning in Reality TV!
I think that Robin should have just given Solomon to Meri. That way they don’t spend a ton of money on doctors to implant Robin and they don’t have to deal with another mouth to feed. Robin already has three younger kids to take care of, and Meri doesn’t have any. If they really consider each other kids as their own, then perfect solution!
Cannot wait for the full recap! Wow this episode was super emotional. The best for me was seeing that Hunter has made GINORMO strides in his efforts at not being such an emo annoying teen. I mean the ending with him accepting Solomon was the best part of the episode. I’ve always noticed he kid absolutely loves the heck outta Truely and thought he must love all babies. The look he gives Robyn after holding Solomon for the first time was like, “I cannot believe you helped create such an awesome little dude! Ok we’re cool”.
I strongly doubt that Robyn would ever give away her own child, even to a sister wife. Post pregnancy and once you have held the baby, well that bond is a pretty hard one to break. Plus idk how that would blow over for the family dynamic after the media catches wind and blasts the Browns for adding new wives for the sole purpose of being baby making machines for the wives that can not have children of their own (which we all know would happen).
<<<< Post pregnancy and once you have held the baby, well that bond is a pretty hard one to break.
Especially on TV. Every time a TV show couple is supposed to adopt a baby from a birth mother, you KNOW the mother's going to hold that little parasite for the first time and is going to change her mind. First rule of adoption: NEVER LET THE MOTHER HOLD THE DAMN BABY. Cut the cord, have the nurse hand the baby to you out the window, get in your minivan and BURN RUBBER.
>>>once you have held the baby, well that bond is a pretty hard one to break
Especially on TV. Whenever I see a TV couple that are supposed to adopt a baby from a birth mother, I start screaming “DON’T LET HER HOLD IT! DON’T LET HER LOOK AT IT! SHE’LL CHANGE HER MIND!” Cut the cord and have the nurse hand the baby out the window, get in your minivan and BURN RUBBER.
“Cut the cord and have the nurse hand the baby out the window, get in your minivan and BURN RUBBER.”
HA! Hopefully the producers of 16 and pregnant are looking at these comments, but that would be one hilarious episode.
Kinda reminscent of what happened to Tyler and Caitlyn on 16 and Preggers right? That adoptive couple was like,
“Peace out, but we’ll send you pictures for sure. Honey step on the gas, who cares if Butch is standing in front of the Honda Odyessy? We gootta go before these kids change their minds.”
Meri had several babies. Janelle ate them all. The Brown family doesn’t speak of it. If this was Bravo, Candyass Cohen would bring it up at the reunion, but TLC has klass.
I am 99.999% Theo is the Theo I use to work with in Sacramento. He is so incredably nice an funny and so personable and kind.
