I went to watch an episode of "mom" this morning and found out I'd watched the finale before bed š at first I thought "wow, that was pretty anticlimactic. Didn't feel like a finale at all." I was thinking about it afterwards and I realized they had a new feuding mother in the group just starting on their sobriety journey, which brings it full circle to the fact that the show started out with a feuding mother and daughter starting out too. it may not have been a big, splashy finale, but I really apreciated how it brought the story full circle :)
Why does Adam always apologize to Bonnie even though she is in the wrong like an episode when they ate the pot cookies and he apologized to her even though she's the one who went and took the cookies and they were hidden from her and she knew they were hidden from her, but yet he apologized to her. I don't understand.
How adorable is Adam? He gives all his wives friends roses. My heart just absolutely melted. Phew he is one of a kind
Iāve binge watched Mom so many times and last night I caught this for the first timeā¦ Season 3 Episode 17 where Bonnie and Adam start datingā¦ At the end of the episode where Bonnie canāt sleep and she wakes Adam up because she ātrusts himā wink wink the clock next to Bonnie reads 3:17. Just thought it was cool!
I love Andy and I love Jill when she is around him and I'm glad they get back together. I just didn't love their reconciliation. Maybe sappy isn't their style, but I feel like she owed him a more heartfelt apology for their first date.
I love that Adam's dogs have such a big role. More shows need dogs haha
Tammy is precious wish she had been on the show the whole time!
I've always been curious and have seen different answers. Really liked his character and Baxter.
Anyone know what happened?
Did anyone else catch on s4e9 where Adam wants his friend Mitch to meet Bonnie and Adam says heās like a brother and Bonnie says āthatās saying something cause you have a brotherā but on the episode when Adam tries to sneak out the house to meet Patrick, now Bonnie doesnāt know he exists?
Anyone else wish they wouldāve continued the storyline of her writing her book like she was at the end of season 7? That was truly such an emotional part for me when i first watched and i so so so wish they wouldāve continued it into season 8.
am i the only one who likes the more empathetic bonnie? specially in season 8? idk if itās just because i like season 8 the most or what but bonnie is so much better in the final season and the duo between jill and bonnie was so unstoppable!!!!
Ugh!! Christy is just about unwatchable in later seasons; Smoking Christy, Gambling Christy, Law School Christy. Sheās so self-centered, entitled and immature. In earlier seasons she seems to be making progress in her personal growth - what the hell happened?? Was it the breakup with Patrick? Violet going no contact? Tammy moving in? Seriously, what flipped the switch to make her become so insufferable?
As I mentioned in my last post, I'm doing a re-watch and was wondering what you guys thought about their relationship.
What did you guys think of their relationship? I'm doing a re-watch and just finished all the episodes that had them in it.
I donāt get why the writers had to kill that side of her. I think Bonnie and Adam shouldāve got matching jerseys. And hats. They shouldāve rented those baseball throwing machines on dates. Made up new game superstitions/traditions together. They couldāve thrown barbecues with Jill and Andy on big game days. They couldāve dressed up Christy as the mascot. She wouldāve complained on the outside but wouldāve secretly loved it. Jill(pre-Andy) and Christy wouldāve gone with them to games to pick up cute boys. Am I wrong or am I really onto something?!
Remember the restaurant manager, candaceās dad, JOE MANGANIELLO, Marjorieās cousin!!
I remember being so blindsided at the time and the way things went down still seems so bizarre.
I know this has probably been said before but this show was cancelled way too soon, I love it and Iāve been watching it for the past two years. This show needed one maybe two seasons to have a proper ending. I wish that we were able to see Adam beat cancer, Christy graduate from law school, and Jill and Andy become parents. Anyway Iām new to Reddit and this is my first post on this sub so I just wanted to share my thoughts on this.
The show indicates that Bonnie used to smoke nicotine cigarettes and even smoked through her pregnancy. When we start the series, she's just getting sober from drinking and drugs and even relapses twice in the early seasons. However, she's not a smoker in the series.,
In my limited understanding of addiction, it's hard for me to imagine an active alcoholic and drug addict kicking a nicotine addiction because that is chemically one of the hardest substances to quit but also doesn't have the same legality/behavioral urgency for quitting that drugs and alcohol can (at least, the way that Bonnie drank and used.) What does everyone think? It's actually very possible to quit smoking in her circumstances or this is just how sitcoms be?
Iām rewatching Mom and Christys brothers are seen in two episodes then the show just forgets about them. I completely forget about them until I decided to rewatch the first two seasons and was wondering why they never were in the show again? I would think Christy would love to have siblings and connect with them.
Was Anna Faris sick often? Or was it part of her character? I started to notice it was occurring more as the seasons progressed. It didnāt happen in her movies though.
I am watching the show for the first time and I really enjoy it. However, I really dislike how they wrote the kids out. It is one thing to not have them in the show anymore - that can be understable. But they removed their pictures. Even in the apartment, they removed the painting of the kids hand prints they made for her.
Also, when Christy was explaining in one of her meetings how busy she is - she listed AA meetings, going to school to be a lawyer, her full time job, but she said nothing about being a mom. The paintings in the apartment and those small comments give more depth to her character because she is still a mom. They could have showed her on the phone with her kids, mentioning them in comments like that and keeping their photos around
It is like they are forgotten - and to be honest, it makes Christy's character very shallow.
Jill said that, although her mother left her lots of money, she got most of her money through her ex-husbandās alimony. When she remarried Andy, did her alimony end? Do alamonies even go away when you get remarried? If so, I feel like Jill would be miserable without her money because it carried her entire life.
Got to season 8 but really missing Christi now :(
What did you guys think of their relationship?
I, personally, think Regina was an addict and we left in her denial.
