I relax by watching someone else make an ass of themselves (for a change). Enter, 90 Day Fiancé. There’s the unfortunate coupling of Eric (the oldest 40 year old in recorded history) and Indonesian socialite Leida. Their pathetic attempt to kick Tasha out of her apartment (my name is on the lease, bitch) will make you laugh. Allessandro, sweating his life away on a blow-up couch, will make you cry. Colt, Larissa, and Debbie are a thirsty throuple. I try to avoid social media saturation. I just want to watch 90DF. But their outside drama is so big it overshadows the show. I’m tempted to fast forward, if only to save myself from screaming every time Colt drawls, “Darlin’.” Steven and Olga are struggling. They’ve left the safe confines of the hospital and Steven is cycling. I’m genuinely scared for Olga and the baby. Ashley and Jay might actually stand a chance. She loves him almost as much as she loves drama. Almost. Kalani continues to test Asuelu, with help from her inappropriate family. Asuelu takes a bold stance against condoms and slut people. Maybe Kalani deserves him after all? And Fernanda finally faces an obstacle Jonathan can’t just throw money at: his disapproving family. Warning: This post (and comments) could contain 90DF spoilers
In tonight’s episode, Colt strings Larissa along about moving out (even though he’ll never follow through); Steven continues to harrass Olga; Fernanda tries to charm Jonathan’s controlling mother; Ashley and Jay create wedding drama; Asuelu tries to out-diva Kalani; And Eric and Leida reach a breaking point (dun dun dun). So, tell us what you think. Who is tonight’s biggest disappointment? Any heroes? Has Colt finally bought a damn couch? Has Eric? Who are your favorite family members? (Kalani’s mom, Tasha, Leida’s sister Reina) Who is your love-to-hate in the main cast? (Debbie) Spill it all here, among friends (the way it should be).
Thanks for the advance recap. I’m stuck at the airport, with a delayed flight and I’ll miss the show tonight. Kalani pisses me off–how does she expect her boy husband to know how to care for a baby? He hasn’t been there with her, she is so condescending.
My daughter and I and the Samoans she works with appear to be the only Australians watching this show. It’s not even on here. I’m having withdrawal because my laptop died. 90DF withdrawal is the worst. Thanks for the recap. Oh, the Samoans my daughter works with have Asuelu on their gaydar. This surprised me.
Ooh, that’s some juicy goss. I’ve never questioned Asuelu’s sexuality but they might be picking up on cultural cues we miss.
I thought I had seen some screen shot texts between Kalani and another girl he was seeing…
I’m here in Adelaide watching (& cringing) right alongside you darlin’ ?
I’m watching live now and dog gone it I love Fernando
I swear I wish I was around Steven because I would grasp him by the nape of the neck & just shake the stupid out of him. Why in the world doesn’t he just shut the hell up? He doesn’t have even an iota of an idea that if Olga really wanted to she could create hell on earth for him. Sigh but I don’t know why but I took an instant dislike to him.
I actually liked Steven in the beginning but he keeps proving he’s the worst. I want the Russian mob to take him on a walk in the woods, like Adrianna on the Sopranos.
I like Steven. He is twenty. He has no idea what the fuck he is doing and mostly he seems terrified that she will leave him and he will be separated from the baby. He’s just freaking out. That behavior is going to encourage her to run away.
So next week my bff received a couple nights in a hotel on the strip. Rather than instinctively saying “I can’t, my knees” I said yeah. How fun. (Went so against my norm, I’m living the “I can’t” way of life)
So I am getting a mobility scooter and going to have a blast.
I’m mentioning because she decided to get over her fear of heights, so up the Stratosphere we are going, lol.
She needs to, so I am right there with her. She’s been suffering from witnessing of a shooting recently, up close and personal. So any fears that are necessary for her to conquer, I’m in.
I’m going to be looking for Larissa and “Coltee” because what
a great distraction that would be!!!!!
I have no clue if heights of this height is an issue for me, but bff
definitely comes first with this. But bff will have no idea if I’m scared. ? Just drink another cocktail, lol.
I love Olga, bless her heart, and I don’t mean that in the backhanded compliment way
I want to kill Steven. Omg his baby is 2 weeks old. I hate him!!!! What does he want Olga to do to show her appreciation…get up and do cartwheels?? Perhaps bust her stitches to clean the house from top to bottom? She’s showing her appreciation by being a good mom to their son. What is Steven doing to show his appreciation to Olga? He’s making her life miserable. And i want to find her and get her away from him. Olga, sweetie, ruuunnnnnn and run fast.
I’ve been binge watching today. First time watcher of this show and I’m literally feeling sick with worry for Olga.
If i could help Olga i would!! Call me girl lol.
Olga must send Stephen back to America. TLC should get involved when it appears that something dangerous might happen to Olga and the baby.Stephen, our young sociopath needs intense treatment.
When he said he should come before the baby, I literally yelled at the screen “THE NEWBORN BABY COMES FIRST.” I mean, it’s a baby, it literally can’t do anything on its own yet. But apparently neither can Stephen.
And she tried (very gently) to remind him she just had surgery and he just kept whining “but you didn’t thank me for running errands.”
I liked him at first, and am hoping this is maybe some sort of bad spot, but he better have a steep learning curve quickly. Or at least a producer to smack some sense into him or something. In his current state I think he’s, at best, selfish and at worst, dangerous and abusive.
Olga should RUN to the Russian authorities and refuse to allow Steven to leave the country with her baby.
Who is going to ‘breast feed’ a newborn baby except his mother!
Abusive Steven doesn’t have a steady job, or a residence, since it was noted he was ‘sofa surfing’ with friends before he went to see Olga. What is the ‘better life in America’ is he talking about?
Olga, you can do better – much better! What a creep Steven is.
While some of your points are valid, I think it would be the best thing for everyone to deal with each other for a few years and let her get citizenship.
I wish the the runaway bride and the Jamaican would go file a police report on those comments on the wedding registry. It’s probably all done by one person and that person would be very easy to locate with a court order.
I read today that they did find out who did the posting – an ex of Ashley’s … the police are handling it
I don’t understand Leida at all. Why on earth would she leave being rich in Indonesia to be poor and live in a hovel in a flyover state? How does she see this as a move in a positive direction. It makes no sense to me. I’d rather live alone in a van down by the river. And who bitches about child support? How old aren’t Eric’s kids, aren’t they about to age out?
Do any of these people on past shows ever give up and go home?
Why is Kalani such a bitch. She chose this man child and is now pissed he is a man child.
I wondered if Leida thought she’d found easy access into the US medical/social world, though she really doesn’t come across like a medical professional, more like a doctor’s spoiled daughter. It’s TOTALLY understandable that this guy ticks them off, can’t tell if he’s mentally lazy or on drugs from his expression and behavior, but she seems to spend far too much time talking about how wealthy and privileged they are, so this doesn’t add up. From the way she orders him around, maybe she just needs a whipping boy, she and the daughter are more alike than she realizes.
This is a four-way tie for worst fiancé ever – ‘Baraboo’, ‘Colt-ee’, ‘Samoana’ and the ‘future gulag inmate’. As for Jamaican bobsled, I guess Ashley will see the barber shop confession eventually, and something about that threat business seemed a little too staged, but I hope they’re safe.
My favorite show.
Heros:
Olga for being a good mom and fighting through the hardship first time motherhood. It’s clear that she and Steven are running on no sleep. I actually don’t even think Steven is innately “bad”, but rather just going through that really hard first three months of parenthood. It’s extremely taxing with no sleep and the stress of caring for a basically a blob that drains you of everything you have. Lol…I hope they get though it.
Fernanda for making peace with a difficult MIL and winning her over! I love fernanda.
Allessandro for dealing with his mom.
Zeros:
Leida and Eric- I dislike them both equally! Eric Ian’s his description of himself as a “spartan” makes me gag! Leida and her entitlement! They deserve each other.
Mean commenter Ashley and Jay’s wedding registry! I bet it’s Natalie. Anyone else?
I cannot believe how unlikeable some of these people are, yet I cannot stop watching.
Kalani and saying “my baby” all the time, just stop…the baby has a father too and has just as much say in his child’s life, he isn’t auditioning he has the job.
Ledia and Eric – miserable idiots, don’t involve your children in this fiasco. Eric’s daughter is the most reasonable one in the house. The younger daughter and her mother must be thrilled to hear her new step mother thinks wedding flowers are more important than child support. And why not do a courthouse quickie wedding if your first wedding was a 2000 person blowout, double so since it’s all his family anyway and they could not care less.
Colt and his mommy need help.
Finally Stephen and Olga, its heartbreaking watching that young girl nurse her 2 week old while being berated by him. The last straw to me was him saying she loves the baby too much and isn’t giving him enough attention…GTFOH she needs to run, far and fast. I’m with the previous commenter and ready to start a Save Olga project.
Thanks for recapping yet another installment of 90 Day F*ck Ups.
I think the only couple that perhaps stands a snowballs chance is Fernanda and Jonathon. The rest just need to take their participation ribbon and go home.
Keilani and her man child: I have to wonder what made her think, “Yeah, THIS is the guy I want to lose my virginity to” because he seems about as bright as a 4 watt bulb.
Jay and Ashley’s storyline of Resort Romeo has been played out, so they have switched over to “Lets paint every American as a racist.” While I don’t doubt they face a lot of idiotic people, I question the timing of hundreds of comments because no one knew who these people were prior to the show and it would have finished filming by the time it began to air.
Colt-eeeeeeee needs to drive Larissa out to the desert and leave her whiney azz there.
Leida will never be happy. Eric needs to deflate the blow up mattress and move on. I have no pity for him. She was a raging b!tch during their video chats, so he knew what he was getting.
Olga breaks my heart. She has been gutted like a fish, and even says that her hormones are out of whack and her man child whines more than the baby about HIS needs. We get it dude, your childhood sucked…welcome to the real world…now sack up, shut up and be a supportative partner!
Kalani is such a wicked witch. She needs a clue to stop being
So negative and JUDGEMENTAL. Just ugh.
Do we know where Ashley’s kids are?
I cannot for the life of me figure out why those comments had to be read.
Shame on TLC for giving it life.
Ashley did not say “I have a ton of black friends” just when I thought it couldn’t get worse. Huge ugh.
Take a shot every time DV Steven and boohole Kalani say ‘my baby’.
Seeing folks sticking up for Steven really makes me question humanity. Olga is 2 weeks out from a c-section and he bitches about himself. Heck, I thought his forcing her to rush out of the hospital just days post v-section was bad enough.
I just hope TLC is keeping close tabs on that guide. He’s a self centered bomb ready to explode.
Steven wants the life I bet he has lived a million times over in his mind. It’s heartbreaking.
Olga probably wants the life she imagined a million times when she had her baby, and Steven is going to be there to take care of her. It’s heartbreaking as well.
I’m anxious to see how this all plays out. What I hope will be hard, but I can’t imagine it without the Visa being barely begun, and I think Steven is going to not do well when he goes back in a couple weeks. Positive thoughts for them both.
I’ve literally never yelled at a TV as much as I did last night when Steven and Olga were on…she is sitting there after having had a cesarean with a 2 WEEK OLD baby she is nursing and he’s talking about how she’s not making HIM a priority??? I get it…he has family issues but come on…that doesn’t give him a pass to be a selfish, tone deaf, inconsiderate, idiot. Run Olga…run…
Because he is so very young, I will hope for them. In my heart I know this asshole will ruin her sweet and normal disposition. Let’s just pray she will eventually toss him. Baby first always and you’re garbage if you demand otherwise.
