Honestly - if my husband: -lied to my about my role in the marriage until immediately after the marriage -let his family ice me out -completely disregards my feelings -disregards the fact that I am depressed & tells me it’s a personal problem -gaslight the shit out of me every time I tried to talk about my feelings
I would probably scream too. I hear ya Kimberly! I’m starting to feel manic for her
The last we saw of Kimberly was two days after the wedding. She was happy and fixing up the apartment then the poop and pee fiasco and then it is 3-4 months later and she is despondent with depression and feels hopeless and trapped. Why did production not go get updates on her? We knew her formal duties were commencing, we new she had declared her independence to do things her way….why did they not get scenes of her decline. I feel kind of cheated. We see her death scream and TJ running to mummy and the next thing we know she is in a NY studio filming The Tell All. After the buildup for months, I feel the story pre-climax was missed. Maybe they will have a The Other Way More To Love with deleted scenes before Monday that will include what all we missed.
I for one am perfectly fine not seeing the decline. Tj is intolerable. TLC probably did it to up ratings for the tell all. Because they are TLC and assume we will tolerate it because the girl screams and cusses when she is (usually reasonably) upset.
I’m fine not seeing it as well, but it’s a strange thing to omit from a 20 episode season. Hard to believe this thing started in early July
Yeah, I’m always curious what the actual filming schedule is sometimes. Very possible in this example that production was in country this whole time, but they were filming other Indian couples.
There was a moment in Gino and Jasmine’s last full season where they were pretending all the events took place in one trip that Gino had taken to Panama. The problem was for their last few scenes it was obvious that Jasmine had gotten some new plastic surgery and had fully recovered from that. So they were showing two different Gino trips and acting like it was all sequential. Or Gino was there for a long time.
I agree! In fact, this whole season felt rushed to me, like they filmed as quick as possible, instead of taking their time to get more details…
I wonder how them cutting the show from what used to be two hours down to one hour so they could squeeze The Last Resort and Family Chantel in at the 9:00 hour, did that lead to scenes being cut? I know the season was many months long, but was a lot chopped out because of the shortened length or did they just make up for that by having the season forever weeks long? Very odd that Kimberly’s saga was so chopped up. Even if she wasn’t going downstairs or going out, we could have seen her explain what was happening instead of only showing their breakup fight. Usually there is something after a breakup fight…showing them packing, saying goodbye….nothing….maybe during the Tell All they will show scenes explaining all this.
TLC chose to script bs for Jasmine and Gino instead of film Kimberly unravel while TJ is clueless and torn. I’d rather watch Kimberly scream in frustration than Jasmine’s fake crying.
Well the Bitch had to know Google to get signed up for the show……so she can’t claim that she or her family never had the opportunity to find out what she was signing herself up for.
I don’t think everyone in India is TJ and he is the problem.
We’ve had quite a few Indian people and white people married into Indian families comment on how TJ’s family is not normal so I don’t think Google would have helped her. Indian culture is not a monolith… it hasn’t even been United as a singular nation for very long.
In India there are many different sub cultures but I can tell you for sure that all of them (except the westernized folk especially from upper middle class to higher) live somewhat the way TJ and his family live.
most indian families are known to live together. If you watch a Hindi teledrama on Netflix you’ll know what this entails.
Indian families treat their mothers like gods and hold their word to the highest regard. So calling him a titty baby isn’t even an insult to him. I’m sure he’s wondering what the fuck she even means by that.
the younger son is treated like a baby.
These are very common things among Indian cultures that you can find through Google (go to Netflix, YouTube or so many other websites with documentaries and TV shows).
Kimberly was aware of this, she even asked TJ if she would be expected to do the house manager role and he lied and told her no.
Why are so many people ignoring that this happened?
Yeah. She knew what she was getting into and when she asked questions he omitted facts (lied). When she asked more questions he just did his stupid cheesy toothy smile and cocked his head sideways. And again deflected. She asked. He just didn’t answer. And she had been there before. He probably most likely as per usual omitted things once again or painted things in such a light so she would be okay with it.
Both are to blame. Him constantly omitting truths and deflecting and her thinking she can go into a family with her American ways and get her way. She knew what she was getting into (on the family level, how tight knit it is and how living arrangements and things would be.) She thought she could have it her way and has now ran into a wall and she can’t handle it. She is definitely not blameless in all of this.
TJ shoulda just married a Hindu girl. His brother is smart in saying when he gets married he is marrying a Hindu girl. She knows the program and will hit the ground running.
Yeah good points. It was naive she took him at his word cause he does seem to have been lying or withholding info all throughout the relationship and he definitely should’ve just married a Hindu girl, I’m genuinely confused why he didn’t…
“Titty Baby” bahahahahaha!!
I loved how she managed to work in all the pejorative names he hates to be called…. without actually calling him any of them.
