In season one it seems like Jax and Brittany wants to take down Kristen and Luke, they shit talk them soo much. And season 2 they go after Danny and Nia. Anyone feel like Brittany wants it to be hers more then Kristen even though it won’t cause she’s the OG?

Ok, so after changing my mind a bit about Lacy, I decided to do a rewatch of the Danny Darko stuff and then a rewatch of this season. Honestly, I barely paid attention to most episodes and forget them all the time so I don't mind. Heatwave.

I cannot stand Kristen any longer!!! Why is she sooo far up Nia's ass? Maybe because she shares the same weird, unhappy marriage/relationship? She is insufferable. I think her and Luke will never be happy together and she basically used him for sperm. She's never leaving California.

Also: I cannot unsee Luke's sailor outfit. I regret that rewatch. And WTF about The Little Mermaid???

That. Is. Creepy.

I’m sorry to be such a boomer but why do people call Nia ofdaniel? I’ve seen it a bunch and don’t get it and can’t find the original post 😭

Omg. I can not DEAL with the treatment of Janet. Ik everyone thought she was irritating last season. But just cause you think someone is annoying doesn't mean they are wrong. Danny and Nia are so weird/gross. The protection they are getting vs the harassment that Janet is getting is INSANE!!!! Like what is going on?? And I see a lot of threads still defending Danny and Nia.. Cause this is actually insane behavior going on.

This is just my own opinion, but after watching this week’s episode and the preview for next, I got a bad feeling about what’s coming..It appears to me that Janet is going to drop a bomb on camera about how she was SA in the past and that’s why she was crashing out/crying in Mexico, and why she went so hard at Danny. Could it be a “Hail Mary” from her to get the cast to back off/drop the issue? As a survivor myself I don’t think anyone should feel forced to talk about their own trauma. If that’s what’s going to happen, it makes me think of the situation with Brynn on RHONY and how that blew up the cast, and how dark that season ended. I think Danny’s only saving grace after what he did to Jasmine was that it wasn’t on camera. Any other work environment and he would have been fired. But once Janet talks about her own past on camera, the producers won’t be able to ignore it anymore, it’s going to blow up the group and that could potentially lead to the end of the show. I’m ready to be done with Danny and Nia, they’re so uncomfortable to watch and I feel like things are going to get a lot darker.

I think people get caught up in seeing alcohol as an all or nothing issue, when the reality is much more nuanced.

There is a difference, although it's a very fine line, between being an alcoholic and having an unhealthy relationship with alcohol.

Not everyone who has a problematic relationship with drinking meets the clinical definition of alcoholism, but that doesn't mean their drinking isn't causing harm to themselves or the people around them.

Danny's relationship with alcohol is incredibly unhealthy as we all witnessed. Whether it's the frequency, the lack of control once he starts, the poor decisions he makes, the sexual assaults (yes, it was sexual assault by definition) or the impact it has on his relationships, there are clear signs that alcohol is not his friend.

You don't have to be physically dependent on alcohol for it to be negatively affecting your life.

The problem is that so many people reject this middle ground. They hear "your relationship with alcohol is unhealthy" and immediately respond with, "Well, I'm not an alcoholic." As if those are the only two categories that exist. It's an easy way to avoid taking ownership because if you don't identify as an addict, you can convince yourself there's nothing to address and no problems.

That's why I find Nia's defense of his behavior so frustrating. Instead of acknowledging that his drinking is clearly creating problems, she seems to dismiss concerns because he isn't an alcoholic. But that's missing the point entirely.

You don't have to wait until someone reaches rock bottom or develops an addiction before recognizing that their relationship with alcohol is unhealthy and needs to change, and waiting until it reaches that point helps no one.

Edit: this is coming from someone with a true alcoholic parent and can’t go a day without drinking and been hospitalized due to it, and I’ve watched a friend battle their alcoholicism due to a childhood tragic event and go to rehab over it, and personally quit drinking and have been in therapy for a few years because I was not an alcoholic but drank too much, too often (binge drinking) as a coping mechanism and felt like crap all the time. I’m not sober but I have maybe one drink a month as a treat rather than a vice to escape from a stressful week. I, too, denied I had a drinking problem in the thick of it but now I can fully admit it all.

If Jax’s take down plan hadn’t been revealed, Danny and Nia wouldn’t have as many stans.
Danny’s behavior would have kept revealing itself and the viewers would see it for what it is.
Not because of a coordinated effort to out them as not perfect. Danny is just ick.

unfortunately that’s all I really have to say at this point

I just want to tell them all to shhhhhhh

Edit: just woke up to 13 unexpected reddit notifications, sorry everyone lmao - had a mate’s birthday last night that escalated dramatically 🥴🥂

I overall don’t mind the valley but at times it feels like they’re trying to force drama for the cameras. Obv this happens on all reality but I’m really finding this season hard to watch.

Another unpopular opinion I have is that Schwartz and Lala are a good addition to the show, purely because I miss the original VPR cast. Rip 🥲

And why hasn't it been canceled?

ALL they do is argue. That's it. It's stressful to watch and nothing enjoyable about it. They get together and fight. Worst show ever. I gave it a chance and tried, but it's awful.
