I am sure I am not the only one that feels this way, but Gabby's oldest daughter, Juanita, gets on my last nerve. Not only is it blatantly obvious she is not a 4 year old girl, but her smart mouth and attitude are annoying as well! Not to mention those dirty looks she gives. Okay, I just had to get that off my chest!

Agreed - she is more like a 7 or 8 year old. The younger one is closer to 4 years old.

Ok, so we now know that Mike did something to Dave's wife and daughter... Anyone got any good speculations???

Next week looks so good with the 100th episode.

5S - Susan and Mike were in an accident involving Dave's wife and daughter - he holds Mike responsible.

With his 'soul mate" talk last night, I wonder if he considered his wife his, and was planning to hurt Susan, but Mike said Susan wasn't his soul mate. What if (I can't remember her name, Bree's partner, now involved with Mike) is his soul mate, and Dave kills her at the end of the season - she's an expendable character, IMO.

Didn't he and Susan kill them in the 1st episode of this season....in the car wreck that led to them getting divorced?

We know that they killed a woman and her daughter...could be them?? But it sounded like from the description last night about how Dave and Edie met, that he didn't live in Fairview prior to meeting Edie...

Katherine-is her name-that's exactly what I thought last night especially after Mike told him he was falling in love with her.

Juanita is getting on my last nerve too, but why can't the younger girl say something...anything? I've never heard her utter one word. Surely if she's capable of acting the part, she capable of saying something! (And don't call me Shirley.)

I completely agree!

I thought the same thing, which means we're probably wrong!

We do know it's them, I think. If I remember correctly, the "intro" (dead-chick's voice over work) to that first episode said the woman's name, which we then saw on the headstones.

Yeah the car wreck definitely killed Dave's wife and daughter.

So I guess now that Carlos got his new job they'll no longer have money issues? I'm bummed about that. It made them seem more real. I hated the whole story with Gabby and not being able to control the kids. Come on! Grow a backbone. My dd acted like that and I would've dragged her booty up those stairs if it KILLED me.

Actually I enjoyed it. Gabby always appears to be in control. She was a great manipulator, but she couldn't (or hadn't figured out how yet) do that with her own kids. I brought her down to a 'real' level.

Maybe they can't get her to speak in the presumably 2 yo-speak that she'd be required to use since they cast too old of children for the ages they are supposed to be.

My problem is that they didn't select child actors who at least looked a little like either Carlos or Gaby. Sure, they're hispanic, but that's as close to resembling their TV parents as it gets.

I agree about the girls as well.... glad its not just me..

all I could find on the girls was this:

Juanita is Madison Delagarza and she is 6 1/2

Celia is Daniella Baltodano and I couldn't find an age on her..


How old are they supose to be again?

Only 5 years have passed and Gaby wasn't pregnant at the end of last season... that we knew about. So, even if she was, Juanita is just approaching 5 (on the show) and Celia is younger than her. Didn't Gaby say that Juanita was 4 when they were trying to wedge her into a princess dress?

Oh, Obviously I didn't pay that close attention!

Well, it's been a long time and they didn't mention her name since then, as far as I know!

 

[KristiKelly]

This season is getting on my nerves so far. The characters seem so far fetched and exagerrated, like Lily Tomlin playing the sister of Ms. (what's her name, I've drawn a blank) - really stupid character to me. and the Andrew's future MIL, both get on my nerves.

I don't know, the need to pick up the writing.

 

[bubba's mom]

agreed....the entire series is starting to go downhill.....good thing Marc is calling it quits after 2 more seasons... I think the time will be right.

 

[MELSMICE]

With the exception of last night's episode, I've enoyed the season so far. I didn't know there were only 2 seasons remaining.

While I thought last night's episode was "sweet", it came out of nowhere. This guy has never been on before & all of a sudden there is an entire episode about him. I'm not too sure where that came from. I could have done without it.
