I am so mad at Joel. I know he is confused, but I hope he changes his mind. And I thought Zeke's revelation about Camille's sacrifices was so sweet. I am glad he agreed to sell the house but I wonder if it comes to it, whether they actually will. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/parenthood-fans-spoilers#post-1375522 Sat, 25 Jan 2014 11:49:27 +0000 sunny 1375522@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@ineebee: @charlotte: yes! I think Joel totally gave up already :-( </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/parenthood-fans-spoilers#post-1374390 Fri, 24 Jan 2014 17:11:11 +0000 charlotte 1374390@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@ineebee: agree. I really hate that storyline. Their problems just seem so fixable if Joel would try. </p> <p>Whatever happened to Hattie btw? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/parenthood-fans-spoilers#post-1374286 Fri, 24 Jan 2014 16:31:34 +0000 ineebee 1374286@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yes, Camille is being so unbelievably pretentious, but God bless Zeke for being so loving and forgiving of it. On a more typical show, Zeke would've kirked out at Camille at the end about how annoying she's being, but instead he decides to give something up for her. That's why I love this show.</p> <p>In her last ditch effort to convince Joel to stay, I love how Julia owned up to her mistakes. Way to go, Julia! But stubborn and unwilling Joel just won't have it. I really don't understand! The writers of this show have their characters behave badly and make mistakes like anyone would, but they're hardly ever unreasonable! Joel's behavior is too uncharacteristic of anything showrunner Jason Katims has done. I'm not buying it! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/parenthood-fans-spoilers#post-1374221 Fri, 24 Jan 2014 16:02:44 +0000 charlotte 1374221@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@deerylou: HAHA I am catching up on parenthood and just googled "why is Millie so annoying on parenthood" during her painting "class" on the iPad + prosciutto eating smugness. And this thread popped up first on my search! So glad I'm not the only one. :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/parenthood-fans-spoilers#post-1373550 Fri, 24 Jan 2014 12:21:28 +0000 T-Mom 1373550@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I just got caught up as well. I'm so annoyed with Millie as well! I feel so bad for Zeke. I'm also really pissed about Joel and Julia. I'm mad at both of them.! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/parenthood-fans-spoilers#post-1373545 Fri, 24 Jan 2014 12:19:53 +0000 sslm 1373545@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I just watched last night's episode. Totally cried :( </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/parenthood-fans-spoilers#post-1373499 Fri, 24 Jan 2014 12:01:20 +0000 HLK208 1373499@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Leialou: haha she's not in the intro anymore either </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/parenthood-fans-spoilers#post-1373441 Fri, 24 Jan 2014 11:44:35 +0000 creativemomma15 1373441@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Leialou: it bugs me too that they never mention Hattie! At least talk about her or something. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/parenthood-fans-spoilers#post-1373424 Fri, 24 Jan 2014 11:39:10 +0000 Mrs. Pickle 1373424@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm catching up on the newest episodes now. Are we supposed to forget that Hattie ever existed? I know she is off at college, but she was last season too and was in a few episodes. They haven't mentioned her at all. </p> <p>Millie is really annoying me too! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/parenthood-fans-spoilers#post-1365545 Tue, 21 Jan 2014 21:07:01 +0000 knittylady 1365545@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@deerylou: HAHAHAH. Thank you. She's been annoying the crap out of me! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/parenthood-fans-spoilers#post-1358507 Sat, 18 Jan 2014 16:18:28 +0000 Freckles 1358507@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Maysprout: I agree with you. I think he was the supportive husband and father all of these years, and Julia has been acting like an ass since he got his contract with Peet. </p> <p>@Mae: I don't know, i think it was an emotional affair! Texting and confiding about a really hard topic (holding back their son a grade) that was already creating tension between Joel and Julia? I would be really annoyed. Also, most guys care more about emotional affairs than one that's about sex (at least my husband does anyways). @Mrs. Jump Rope: Yes, she totally was letting him comfort her. Grrrr....</p> <p>@HLK208: It's so annoying when she keeps telling people Ed kissed her...we all saw what happened, Julia!!</p> <p>Even though Amber annoys me, i cried when she was yelling at Seth during the last episode. :crying: </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/parenthood-fans-spoilers#post-1358488 Sat, 18 Jan 2014 15:58:51 +0000 Mrs. Jump Rope 1358488@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Mae: I'm thinking of the episode where a meeting was linedup with the teacher but Julia was at school working on something with Ed, and ran into victors teacher. Didn't the teacher tell Julia that yes, he'd be held back? And Julia cried on eds shoulder before telling Joel what she'd found out?</p> <p>I really could be remembering this incorrectly! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/parenthood-fans-spoilers#post-1358423 Sat, 18 Jan 2014 15:13:34 +0000 Dandelion 1358423@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@deerylou: Yes! I just watched the show, and she bugged me more than anyone. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/parenthood-fans-spoilers#post-1357857 Fri, 17 Jan 2014 23:37:31 +0000 raintreebee 1357857@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@deerylou: I am so glad you said something about Millie. She is my least favorite character, but I always thought I was the only one who disliked her! </p> <p>In fact, I am finding it hard to like any of the characters this season! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/parenthood-fans-spoilers#post-1357791 Fri, 17 Jan 2014 22:26:40 +0000 bisous 1357791@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I love Parenthood! I am mad at Joel. He needs to get his sh** together. I am glad for Millie to gain some independence but it seems like she wants to see how far she can go with it and that ticks me off. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/parenthood-fans-spoilers#post-1357772 Fri, 17 Jan 2014 22:13:57 +0000 Mae 1357772@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@deerylou: yesssssssss. Zeke is trying Millie, meet him half way!</p> <p>@Mrs. Jump Rope: Hm. Can't remember. I feel like she was discussing it with Joel before and he was shutting her down not wanting to talk about it/deal with the issue (which if we recall, she was right and they SHOULD have held him back initially except Joel was too pig-headed to really talk about it). I feel like she only started talking to Ed about it after Joel refused to talk. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/parenthood-fans-spoilers#post-1357598 Fri, 17 Jan 2014 19:55:59 +0000 sslm 1357598@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@deerylou: yes!!!! I was super irritated by her behavior in last night's episode. Very stuck up and pretentious!! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/parenthood-fans-spoilers#post-1357597 Fri, 17 Jan 2014 19:55:51 +0000 fussygal 1357597@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@deerylou: lol, she was TOTALLY being a hipster! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/parenthood-fans-spoilers#post-1357580 Fri, 17 Jan 2014 19:44:34 +0000 deerylou 1357580@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@mrs. 64: Glad I'm not the only one! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/parenthood-fans-spoilers#post-1357578 Fri, 17 Jan 2014 19:43:14 +0000 mrs. 64 1357578@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@deerylou: hahah yes! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/parenthood-fans-spoilers#post-1357575 Fri, 17 Jan 2014 19:38:40 +0000 deerylou 1357575@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@fussygal: At first, I thought Zeke was being kind of a prick about the house, but can see that he probably has sentimental connection to the home in which he and his wife raised their children.</p> <p>I'm all for cultivating your interests, but please, Millie. Go back to school for a degree in fine arts, but these six week, international expeditions without your husband, and then acting like a stuck up hipster when you return? I'm sorry, but no.</p> <p>@HLK208: Right. I literally wanted to punch through the television screen when she came home in her Hollywood sunglasses that she didn't take off, upon entering the living room. And then when Zeke asked her if she was glad to be home, and she just kinda shrugged? Bah. And yes, Jasmine grinds my last gear. Ugh. Okay, I'm acting like these people are real individuals. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/parenthood-fans-spoilers#post-1357564 Fri, 17 Jan 2014 19:26:32 +0000 HLK208 1357564@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@deerylou: hahahahaha! I can't stand her either. She's so emotional and naggy. Jasmine is also super naggy. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/parenthood-fans-spoilers#post-1357558 Fri, 17 Jan 2014 19:24:18 +0000 fussygal 1357558@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I agree Joel is being a jerk and his unwillingness to talk is stupid and seems like an easy/cheap way to take the storyline. Julia is also at fault for letting herself get in that situation with Ed but at least she's willing to talk and work on their relationship like an adult. </p> <p>@deerylou: ugh, yes! I used to kind of like her character, but this season she's just so annoying. I understand her wanting to sell the house and travel, but she's being a bit stubborn about it. Seems like Zeke is trying to make an effort now but she's so standoff-ish she makes it hard. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/parenthood-fans-spoilers#post-1357062 Fri, 17 Jan 2014 15:24:08 +0000 deerylou 1357062@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Can I just say that I was hoping Millie would drown in a pot of spaghetti while she was touring Italy? I cannot stand her character. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/parenthood-fans-spoilers#post-1357022 Fri, 17 Jan 2014 15:03:07 +0000 sslm 1357022@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@nana87: that's the thing, they were definitely having issues before Ed came along. Joel kind of shut down on her and I think that's why she opened up to Ed! He definitely started the path to asshole-dom early this season!! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/parenthood-fans-spoilers#post-1356748 Fri, 17 Jan 2014 13:12:46 +0000 nana87 1356748@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I definitely don't think Julia is innocent, in any way at all, but I think Joel is being such a jerk! The way he blamed her for Victor's situation and wouldn't t talk to her about it was a huge red flag even before this Ed situation. Julia is at least trying, and sshe has been trying to work on things for awhile and he has kept blowing her off. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/parenthood-fans-spoilers#post-1356716 Fri, 17 Jan 2014 13:02:45 +0000 Mrs. Jump Rope 1356716@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Mae: maybe emotional affair was too harsh.. I think she was a bit flirty at times, though. And maybe I'm remembering the sequence of events incorrectly, but didn't she tell ed about her sons school problems before her husband? I don't remember her and Joel having any issues at that point, either. I thought she cried on eds shoulder before even telling Joel what was going on. </p> <p>Julia worked in an office that was male dominated before she became a SAHM and I don't recall Joel ever feeling jealous about colleagues. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/parenthood-fans-spoilers#post-1356691 Fri, 17 Jan 2014 12:40:07 +0000 Mae 1356691@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Totally agree that Joel is being an ass! Yes it is fine that he took this project and it means long hours, but he really didn't seem to be making any effort to acknowledge how hard that was on Julia. And even if he wasn't WRONG about that, he wouldn't even talk to her. She only went to his office after he refused to take her phone calls. If my husband ever refused to take my phone calls for ANY reason we would have big freaking problems. </p> <p>And I'm not really so sure Julia was having an "emotional affair." She was having emotions and she had a friend. Maybe she let it go a little too far when it seemed that Ed was getting divorced, but I don't think leaning on a friend for support when your husband is being an ass is uncalled for, and I don't think a friend having a penis = emotional affair. </p> <p>Also, even if Joel has a right to be SUPER PISSED, work it out dude. He isn't even trying. Refusing therapy? Refusing to talk? Grow the hell up. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/parenthood-fans-spoilers#post-1356579 Fri, 17 Jan 2014 12:03:27 +0000 Mrs. Jump Rope 1356579@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@sslm: yes, it's worth fighting for, but what's the time lapse here? Two weeks? </p> <p>I think Joel needs to sort out his feelings before he gives counseling a shot. If my husband kissed someone else, my knee-jerk reaction wouldn't have been to run into counseling -- I'd be pissed and need time to collect my thoughts. </p> <p>I also fell asleep half way through last nights episode so maybe I'm not seeing the whole picture yet! </p>
