haven't gotten around to Selling Sunset yet, I barely remember most of last season

I thought Selling the Secret Sunset of Mormon Wives was the name of a real show for a sec and my head was spinning lol.

Why is Emma so annoying this season?
I don’t trust Bre at all but Chelsea has never been an angel either.
The ending was so abrupt that I thought there was going to be a final episode coming with the Emma situation blowing up, but there are no announcements about another episode nor a reunion.

ive never liked emma and this season she was the WORSTTTTTTT

her throwing those empanadas off the balcony was so rude

[ltmsysf]

I can’t believe she actually did that!

Tried the Mormons show but it seems very fabricated like are they even truly Mormons. They just come off as attention seeking reality star women. What exactly makes them Mormons besides living in this particular state.

It's almost like giving me a show called "The secret lives of Christian gay men" just because I am initially from Bavaria in Germany even though I haven't been to church in 10+ years 😅

Two of them do seem like they are devout or trying to be. And I think the one who has her own salon considers herself an ex or former Mormon. I think part of what makes them Mormon besides their self-profession, is the profound for lack of a better word, warping effect it seems to still have on them, is having on them.

Like Mayci seems the most well-adjusted, but apparently was subjected to an abusive relationship to get there, and I assume it was with another Mormon.

But at the same time I was like the one girl (Whitney)who is trying to be the ideal curses like a sailor and I had no idea that was allowed in Mormonism.

Honestly dont want shows about Mormons that dont frame them as a cult.

Nothing about this show paints Mormons in a positive light

[distant_lines]

Which I think makes it so much more interesting, because you can tell the women think they're portraying Mormonism positively, but it's just highlighting how fucked the religion is.

When I was watching it the cult thought hit me pretty strongly and I don't usually have any sort of thoughts about Mormons. It might not have been the intention of the show, but I think you do get a cult vibe pretty strongly.
