The Good:
- Leah and Corey. The power couple can do no wrong. Sure, their move into the Love Shack (emphasis on the "shack") was a little fast, but, like Leah said, it's hard to take it slow when you have two kids together. I think Leah and Corey have all the necessary ingredients for a healthy and stable relationship: mutual love and respect for each other, great parenting skills, supportive families and a trailer down by the river(with a fresh coat of paint!). So, it's nice to see them thriving. Even A
li's projectile vomit couldn't rain on their parade. I'm going to start calling these two Sandy and Danny because I fully expected their groups of friends to burst out into a chorus of "Tell me more, tell me more" when they were all chatting at the barbecue.
- Kailyn's relationship decisions. Thank you, Kailyn, for putting the brakes on Jo's desire to have his happy little family back together. I'm sure it's difficult to resist the lure of 24/7 access to The Bank of Jo, even considering his terrible interest rates ("Pay me back double"??) but Kailyn made the right decision when she opted to stay focused on school, work and her baby. Now if only it would last longer than one episode.
The Bad:
- Kieffer's bragging skills. I'm not sure if he realizes it, but being a high-school dropout, taking a couple of courses at culinary school and having the abili
ty to give enormous hickeys all over someone's "friggin' neck" do not warrant an award for "Man of the Year." Kieffer sure has himself convinced that he's a hot ticket, and maybe Jenelle believes it, too, but I don't think he's fooling anyone else -- not crazy Barbara, not the restaurant owners in town who haven't hired him despite his "impressive" credentials, not even the alligator he taunted on his first real date with Jenelle.
- Chelsea. No, I'm not talking about her hair. Chelsea is an Ugly this week because of her googly-eyed ignorance. Every
time she gets that ridiculous smile on her face when she talks about Adam, I want to just shake her. It's sad to see her turn into a pile of doe-eyed goop over He-Who-Remains-Inexplicably-Shirtless, but it's infuriating to see her lie to her dad about it.
- Are Megan's eyes and teeth unnaturally white, or is it only an optical illusion because they're up against her unnaturally tan skin?
- What was with Kieffer's "I just want y'all to be comfortable, you know what I'm saying?" comment and Jenelle's subsequent maniacal laughter? I felt like there were some drug-related innuendos going on there, but it was like an inside joke between stoners and I was clearly on the outside.
- I'm still not fully convinced that Jenelle & Kieffer's alligator friend wasn't the animatronic feature on Hole 16 at the mini golf course, but I couldn't help but laugh at their exchange before going to see it.
Jenelle: "''Cause he's always guaranteed to be there." ... or your money back!

What, no comments on Jenelle's staying out ALL NIGHT the night before she's supposed to watch her kid, coming home obviously drunk/stoned and then still expecting to stay awake enough to watch her kid? And then her comments...to her mom: "I'm not hungover! I have a headache, I feel sick, and I'm tired!" sounds like a hangover to me. And to the camera "I probably shouldn't have stayed out all night the day before I'm going to babysit Jace. There went the one day I get to watch him." Yep, oh well, no big deal, right????
Jess, you're right! I totally wrote that down because of how ridiculous it was and then forgot to mention it. Her motherhood has pretty much gone down the tubes, but I honestly think it's the way she and her mother both like it. Barbara is insane, no doubt, but she picks a fight with Jenelle from the moment she walks in the door. Her tone is always hostile, and it's like she's just trying to find something wrong (not that there's any shortage). I can only hope that child has someone in his life who can be a good role model, otherwise the cycle continues...
