Teen Mom OG Recap: The Reunion Episodes

September 3, 2019 by tamaratattles 17 Comments

AlTeen Mom OG RecapIn lieu of RHOOC tonight, I’ll be doing a Teen Mom OG Recap of the two part reunion. I’m a bit under the weather today, on top of THE CRAZY, so if you are expecting a perfectly polished recap, this is probably not the one for you. But, um, you’ve also rarely gotten that anyway. 🙂 So let us forge ahead with a full TWO HOURS of Teen Mom OG. I’ve been watching but the show just didn’t air at a time where I could recap. So I have a whole season of things I want to tell you about!

Oh and before we get started I wasn’t able to pull the photos of everyone I wanted to because I was late to the party for the first episode. However, I have three photos of Tyler and Catelynn that I wanted to share. Because they both seemed pissed off about something when I pulled their screenshots. That’s why I used so many more of their photos.

Amber Portwood ArrestedWe begin with Maci, Catelynn and Cheyenne. Apparently Mackenzie is just a “guest mom” and well, Amber is looking at lots of prison time. So, of course they start with that. Maci and Catelynn both said they are trying to support Amber through these trying times. Cheyenne says she was glad the OGs were so accepting of her. These three seem to get along well. It is insane that we have been watching the women for ten years.

Teen Mom OG RecapCheyenne & Cory

Cory is such an attention whore. He started out on The Real World. Then, he did The Challenge which is where he met Cheyenne. Then, he went on Ex On The Beach, and now he’s on Teen Mom OG. The dude has never met a camera he didn’t love.

These two decided that they are just not the right person for each other. Cheyenne wants marriage and a family and Cory is still sowing his wild oats. Cheyenne and Taylor are in a good place. Cory regrets not leaving Mexico to get to the hospital for Ryder. Cheyenne has resentment toward Cory about that. Cheyenne cries talking about Ryder’s condition.

Also, on a petty note, Cheyenne looks STUNNING on this show. But, WTF with the feathery shit going down only one sleeve?  It just doesn’t belong on that pretty pink suit.

Catelynn & Tyler

These two kids are tenacious. I’ll give them that. Overall, they say they had a good year. Catelynn lets the cat out of the bag about their “separation.” She says Tyler spent the night with her a lot during it. After lots of counseling, they say they are stronger than ever. They both really want to have a boy. I hate to break it to them, but the sperm decides the gender. And Tyler shoots nothing but girls. Tyler said that the moment a boy is born he’s going to go get snipped.

Catelynn talks about considering an abortion with Vaeda Luma. What is with these names? Tyler says he didn’t give any input into that consideration because basically, her body, her choice.

Butch relapsed this season and that was really sad. Once again he was not at the the birth of their baby. They both want a relationship with Butch, but only when he is off drugs.

Teen Mom OG ReunionCarly’s Parents Join The Reunion!

They got to see Carly this year and she was really good with the baby. On that note, Brandon and Carly have agreed to be on camera! This is the first time in ten years! We get a flashback to the first time they met Catelynn and Tyler. They were only sixteen. So very young. Tyler gets emotional while watching.  Carly’s parents were sort of blindsided by news that MTV would be filming the experience. Tyler thanks them for being amazing parents and for letting them see Carly. Brandon thanks Catelynn and Tyler. Hopefully, their tensions are lessened by this exchange.

Mackenzie & Josh

I don’t remember ever watching Teen Mom 3. So I am all Mariah Carey I don’t know her with this. I hope that her mom gets well, but I am skipping over the health report. She looks good. She has a great attitude and has outlived her expected time. Despite what Mackenzie is saying, her dad doesn’t seem to care for Josh. Dr. Drew tries to urge Mackenzie into therapy. She’s shutting down and is in denial.

Side Note: I apparently have given Banjo diarrhea or something. He generally only goes out twice a day. Tonight he has gone out three times. He just came back in, and has to go again. I don’t now what all he does out there. The backyard is his mancave and not my business. But, it’s probably because I let his share my fried chicken breast last night. It was greasy and delicious.

Banjo just went out again. It’s dark in the ghetto. It’s not a good idea to be outside. Suddenly, he is barking at someone outside the back fence. I give him the I AM FUCKING SERIOUS GET IN THIS HOUSE RIGHT NOW YELL. Several times. Nothing. I have to go out with a flashlight and drag him back to the how. We are not speaking to each other and I have covered his crate with a blanket. T

Maci & Taylor

These two have decided NOT to lift the restraining order on Ryan. Maci is happy that Ryan’s mom finally has a girl grandbaby. Bentley has been getting therapy about the Ryan situation.

Then Ryan comes out by himself. No parents, no baby mama nothing. Ryan’s eyes are weird. Like fixed and dialated weird. I’m just saying. Ryan says that he is off probation. When asked about how is sobriety was going he said good. It doesn’t seem like he was very sure of that. He talks about his addiction. It’s sad. His eyes are insane.

I just realized there are two Mackenzie’s on this show. Out comes Ryan’s baby mama. Ryan has gray hair. When Dr. Drew says that Maci says that Ryan is more like an uncle or a friend to Bentley, Ryan goes off on Maci. He doesn’t seem to get that his is not being a father to Bentley. Mackenzie is pissed about the restraining order. I hate to say it but I see her getting her own restraining order against Ryan in the future. She’s in denial.

When we start tonight’s episode, we have Maci, and Ryan’s parents on the couch. Dr. Drew thinks Ryan looks a lot better. Apparently, the startled deer look in his eyes is perfectly normal. Ryan’s mom says that Ryan feels like she fights for time with Bentley for herself. She says that is not true. But, what if it is? Grandparents love spending time with their grandkids! Ryan is also pissed with his mother for maintaining a good relationship with Maci. Ryan is a dick. Ryan’s mom is just looking out for the best interest of Bentley.

Ryan’s mom says Ryan wants to make amends with Maci. Did she not see Ryan’s interview above?

Sidenote: I let Banjo out of time out. It’s as much a punishment for me as it is for him. We are inseparable. But, DAYUM, he need to come when I call him and he might be in danger!

Cheyenne, Matt, Cory & Taylor

This couples seem happy. Taylor has a bit of a Freudian slip with she says “I love being with him and Cory is a bonus. I mean Ryder is a bonus.” She is really good with Ryder. Somehow, I had forgotten Taylor was on Are You The One?  I am way too old to be watching all of these MTV shows. Matt says he is getting used to the cameras. Also I had no idea that it sounds like Cory basically cheated on Taylor with Cheyenne. Anyway, none of this matters because everyone on the couch seems to genuinely like each other.

Cory is not sure if he is in love. Taylor and Cheyenne both say that Cory doesn’t know what love is. He’s apparently never said “I love you.” To anyone. I wonder if he has said it to his mother? Dr. Drew has Taylor tell Cory she loves him to see his reaction. Cory give her a dramatic smooch. Taylor says that Cory tells her he loves her in other ways. He just doesn’t like saying it. That’s weird, right?

Catelynn, Tyler, Tyler’s Parents & Sister

Tyler’s mom got to meet Carly this year. She has been sending her Christmas presents and birthday presents every single year. Tyler’s sister is doing great with her sobriety. She is hoping for time with her kids.

Click Here For More Teen Mom OG Recaps!

Butch is sort of on the outs with these people for obvious reasons. They feel that he really screwed up getting in a relationship with less than a year of sobriety. Then Butch comes out. He is not with the girlfriend anymore. When Dr. Drew points out she said some horrible things to Amber, he defends the ex-girlfriend! Butch is very defensive, angry and mean. Tyler is crying. Then Butch cries. He says that when Tyler’s mom texted him that he was dead to her, it killed him. Dr. Drew asks, so what would a sane person do?

Butch doesn’t seem to be in a program. Butch belittles his daughter one year sobriety chip. This is really hard to watch. Because,  WE WERE ALL PULLING FOR BUTCH. And this just sucks. Butch hasn’t even met Vaeda yet. This is horrible. This is becoming an intervention for Butch. Dr. Drew says that Tyler need to go to Al-Anon and I agree. He has so much on his shoulders and trying to FOR THE MILLIONTH TIME help Butch is something he can no longer do. This was hard to watch.

Gary & Christina

Gary is walking a thin line here trying to support Amber even though she abused him too. He said that after the arrest, Leah who didn’t know about anything wanted to Facetime Amber and Andrew. So,he had to tell her about her mother’s arrest. Dr. Drew talks about the time Amber assaulted Gary.  Gary said he was not in shock when it happened again. Gary and Christina both went to court with Amber because she really on had a producer (so the media says to me it looked like her mother) there with her. Also, Gary says he asked Amber if she was suicidal. She said no.

Christina says this is a lot to bear. She wants whatever is better for Leah’s best interest. Leah has been in therapy. Neither of them think she has panic attacks. Well, Christina does.  Gary thinks Leah is manipulative. As someone with panic attacks on nearly a daily basis, I can’t rule out what Gary is saying. I think it is possible that Leah has panic attacks, but it is also possible that she has learned some behaviors from her mother.

Teen Mom OG RecapAmber Portwood

And here we go.  She gets a full fifteen minutes. Dr. Drew traveled to her. So why is their applause from the “audience” for the machete weilding psychopath?  Also, I am pissed that Teen Mom stopped filming Andrew during all of this. Where the fuck is he to tell us what happened? He was willing to film and Teen Mom didn’t want him too. Also, this season Amber told her therapist NUMEROUS TIMES ON CAMERA that she was “this far to losing it.”  I imagine it is a legal issue and they are afraid Andrew will sue the holy fuck out of them when this is over.

Click Here For More Teen Mom OG Recaps!

So, Amber is the third person on this reunion who seems REALLY FUCKED UP. She does clear up the “911” text it was for some sort of neighborhood watch thing. Then Amber says if someone was coming after her with a machete she would call 911. Basically, she said nothing like that ever happened. Sorry I am getting tired after a two hour recap.

Amber Portwood Denies The Machete Incident

Amber says that Andrew already has a new girlfriend that he has moved to Indiana. She’s talked to her. I wonder if that is true. I think he may have called someone out to help him with the kid.

When Dr. Drew asked her to walk him through the night of July 4th when she was arrested, she starts talking about lawyers and legal issues. That is actually smart. She basically threatened to walk.

Then they just talk about the season. Amber and Christina get along well. Then they go back to what happened again. Dr. Drew just wants to get her side of the story out. She bites. She says that years ago, she put herself in prison rather than do a drug rehab. She did that to help herself.(This is all true by the way). So that is her defense. Why would she risk it all by attacking her boyfriend and child with a machete?  Well, because she is sadly mentally ill. She says that Andrew is insane.

We got NOTHING from Andrew. And he posted about not being filmed since Amber’s arrest. So much for the real story.

We end with everyone back on stage (except Andrew and Amber) talking about how their lives have been filmed for ten years.

    Hi I’m new here. I’m glad you mentioned how strange Ryan was. It was almost like he was twitching and moving oddly in his seat. I sort of thought he was seething with anger – maybe at Drew or producers? Does he hate everyone associated with the show? I wonder if he has mental health issues on top of addiction. He has had always seemed angry and not really doing regular life stuff very well.

    My DVR broke and I am hoping it fixes on it’s own b’c I have my favorite movies on there.. Stubborn!!

    Since the damn thing broke, I haven’t taped a lot of reality shows including this one. So thanks for the recap.

    I’m happy for Tyler and Caitlyn that Carly’s parents are in good graces with them. Reading about Tyler and Butch makes me sad, I hope one day Butch gets his life together. I remember all of them (including Butch) years ago buying Christmas presents for Carly, I think they thought they were going to see her, they didn’t. So I am glad Tyler’s mom got to see her. I love Nova, she says the cutest things. Last I watched, she is extremely attached to her mom. I’m sure Carly has her personality, they look alike. Vaeda will be adorable as well.

    I don’t even know what to say about Amber, just a terrible situation.

    Let Banjo be in his mancave!! He needs peace and quiet.. lol

    Banjo and I totally made up. I just freak out when he doesn’t listen. But tonight it was because he was trying to defend me. But I don’t want him to get shot. And I like to think I am SLIGHTLY smarter…

        I hate when my dogs won’t come in at night. My neighborhood isn’t bad but we still have sketchy people in the area.
        My littlest dog takes her freaking time and I more worry about her and some creature out there even though there is really only possums.
        Glad you two made up and I love your side notes.
        Thanks for recapping. I haven’t watched in a while but do like to get caught up.

    I love the Banjo commentary! It makes me feel less crazy when I put my 2 dogs in time out or ground them. Heck I’d read posts about you and Banjo. My 2 pups and I live alone now that the kids are gone but don’t tell them that, they think my son is just at work LOL!

    Great recap for a show my Xfinity DVR completely did not record (those bastards!).
    Ryan drives me batty, even while reading the recap I was pissed at him. He is the only one responsible for whether he’s a good father or not. We have seen far too much of his bullshit with being there for Bentley. I will never have a bad word to say about Maci and Taylor. They’re fantastic and involved parents.

    I look forward to catching the recap myself.

    Tyler and Caitlyn grate my last nerve. You gave a child up but expect to be the parents. Those parents should’ve opted for a closed adoption. That poor kid has to deal with her bio parents bemoaning on camera and such over giving her up time and time again. Butch is never going to be sober.
    Amber is abusive and repeating the patterns she did with Gary. Amber cries about this or that all the time and blames everything, everyone but herself. Her daughter comes over to Mom who rarely gets off the couch except to go to a restaurant. So, she’s probably repeating what she’s seen Mommy do. I read Andrew’s family has money and great lawyers. I suspect he will get full custody.
    I cried and cried over the cancer stricken, not much time left. Heartbreaking.
    Maci annoys me to no end. Her arrogance is off putting.
    But, Ryan is on something and his wife decides another child will make it all better? OMG! All I have to say if Ryan wasn’t on something while talking to Dr. Drew, than he is filled with rage. Scary.

    Ryan has to still be using. His eyes looked crazy. He may not be on heroin anymore but he is definitely on something.
    Maci said that he could spend extended time with Bentley, he just has to pass a drug test…
    Mack is in complete denial and part of me wonders if she’ll end up using with Ryan. He said she asked how he felt when he was using.

    I just can’t watch Amber. I feel like everything out of her mouth is a lie. It just seems like crappy attempts at manipulation.
    Leah is lucky to have Gary and Christina.
    I remember having to explain to my young child that being nervous isn’t the same as an anxiety attack. A kid in her grade had told everyone they’d been diagnosed with an anxiety disorder and like young children will do, they all latched on to that phrase and suddenly everything was giving everyone anxiety.
    I’m not saying it isn’t real for some kids but it is also completely believable that a young child could hear it being discussed then see the attention it got and let that effect them.

    Mackenzie Edwards is not in her marriage for a good reason. She wants money and fame. She hasn’t left him after multiple infidelities because she wants to stay on TV. I’ve done my research on her, and I hope Ryan eventually wakes up and divorces her. She’s using him and contributing to the issue between Ryan and Maci.

    Ryan is not working the steps. He hasn’t accepted responsibility for what he’s done, nor has he made amends. If he was working the steps, his attitude toward Maci would be entirely different. Speaking as an addict in recovery for many years, I can say I don’t see much hope in his sobriety lasting because he’s still shifting blame. I pray I’m wrong.

    I don’t believe Maci is vindictive or enjoys seeing Ryan fail to be a decent father. She’s just a mother trying to protect her son from his dangerous father. I think that the day Ryan has a breakthrough, admits fault, and apologizes will be the day she works towards allowing Ryan more time with his son and lifting the restraining order. He’s not there yet, and she’s being a responsible parent.

    Catelyn and Tyler still don’t respect Brandon and Teresa as Carly’s parents, and they need to because they’ll ruin that relationship for good one day. They need to respect the plan Carly’s parents have for her and stop being so immature. Catelyn is just as selfish as she always has been. I feel for Tyler. When is it his turn for a mental health break?

    Amber has really messed up this time. I believe she is redeemable and hope to see her get joint custody of her son and be able to better work with Andrew coparenting their son. I believe she’s a good person under all of that anger, but she pulled that stunt on the wrong guy. He wants her money and their son, and he will use that incident to his advantage. I think underneath his facade, he’s a loser who found an easy meal ticket, and she played right into his hand. He will never work with her. He will only work against her. He’s not Gary.

    sorry sick of cait and tylers attitude. you wanted to see your daughter so much for an entire year that you couldn’t see her you couldn’t be bothered to do anything. not a card, not a call not a tiny gift saying thinking of you. sick of their lazy entitled self especially cait and her smug attitude. you wait till hours before going to make a scrap book because its so important you lost time with her? they don’t even bother to try and blame mtv for editing so disgusting . smug over he stayed the night during the separation tell us that hen the cameras are gone because so will tyler. she sits there looking at the adopted parent with disgust when she should be damn grateful cary got an amazing set of parents to step up. you so devastated over loosing carly but you get knocked up a second time in a year and your thought is to abort her and you say that o tv. these two are lazy self entitled slobs. they are so convinced carly will come running back they are not prepared for anything else. sick of them thinking the adoptive parents are baby sitters. you were beyond happy to pick them but because you couldn’t follow simple requests of the parents to not put her on social media and you do and you both brag on the show about doing so. I’m tired of hearing the adoption took advantage of them no they were just lazy and figured they could have the adoptive parents do all the work and then when she magically turns 18 she will be back which could happen but a lot of times when your adopted but the rest of siblings were not you get angry, you want to know why you were not good enough to keep. they should prepare themselves for that situation but they won’t.

    Amber looked really pretty, thats the only nice thing I can say about her … she was sedated as all hell sitting there! The saddest part is how she clearly believes her own lies, she takes no accountability for the current situation. She keeps babbling about how she went to prison to change but she hasn’t changed at all. Shes worse than ever. She needs supervised visitation in a visitation center with her children and serious mental health help, meds and therapy. Its just so sad. I feel bad for poor Leah, so glad she has Kristina.

    I felt bad for Amber Baltierra when Butch totally dismissed and belittled her sobriety. What a disgusting thing for him to do. I dont get what his issue is with her? He seems to hate her. Does he like Tyler more because he keeps paying for his rebab and forgiving him? Does anyone else remember at Tyler and Catelynn’s wedding reception, when Amber stood up to make a speech, she alluded to their childhood with Butch, and though it wasn’t really a great time to bring it up in a wedding reception speech, at the end she said, we still love you though and he responded something along the lines of “fuck you” ..??? That showed how he feels about Amber right there and I dont think its ever changed.
