Counting On Season Two- Part 3

[VixenToast]

Wow. Another episode with 15 mins new footage, 15 mins of repeated new footage and 30 mins of flashbacks. Ughhh. Just to stretch it into an hour. I wonder if all the good stuff ends up on the cutting room floor?

[Swamptribe]

My god this episode must be boring.  Nobody is posting

 

[Buzzard]

Counting on - This episode is really just a singles ad for the remaining duggar men! Part 2

Jinger stresses that she's going to miss her connection.  She's upset that he will make it to Dallas several hours before them. 

Jeremy lands and they text to see if there is any way to work it out. He wants to get them all on the same flight, which is oversold.  

Awkward segue...

Jeremy - when asking a girl to court keep it simple

Bin - I thought she liked me... 

flashback to Jessa going into the closet with boob et al to get invited to court by bin.

Jessa - when asking to court it doesnt have to be formal. Its not likeyoure getting engaged.

 

Shot on Jeremy asking Jinger to go outside to "talk." He asks her to court. The J'kids watch from the window... blah blah the lord will give me a woman with a heart for service and the gospel and I've seen that in you... blah blah... sidehug

Jeremy - when I asked her TO BE MY GIRLFRIEND... now we're officially in a relationship

 

Flashback to Jill and Derick

I forgot about the stupid flower bow in JIll's hair... 

"If its alright with you I'm interested in starting an official courthsip/"  "yeah, that would be awesome, totally."

sidehug

 

Derick - its important to be upfront about your intentions

Jed/Jer - I wouldnt be too formal, it would be like on the fly.

 

Flashback to Bin helping the boys with a tree

 

Bin - Its really important to get to know her family, especially if she has 10 brothers.

Flashback of them putting a tree in a dumpster

 

Josiah - its intimiating

Bin - getting to know the family was an important part

 

Flashback to Bin talking about how fixing windsheilds may not cut it.  "Ill do whatever it takes."

 

Singles as for Joe

Joe - I'm joe, i;m 21 and I'm the 7th.

Flashback to them putting can lights in Jessa's house

Bin - joe is one of the first I met. We're getting closer and do a lot of projects.  I have a ton of respect and he has great qualities

Jana - he's good on projects

Flashback to Joe at alert

Jinger - we've always been super close.  I wrote him letters at alert

Jie - at alert they have search and rescue training.  I did more of a basic training and bootcamp.  They're training men to serve in serach and rescue and skill sets.

JD - it was an amazing transformation. He started as a boy and was a man 9 weeks later

Joe - its not lollygagging around. When it comes to a courtship you have to... you have to prioritize and help people who are struggling.

 

Jessa - you can always call him up and ask for help

JIll - hes sweet and caring

Joe - I'd look for a mate that loves god. I dont know where the lord is leading me but well see

J'kids debate on  blonde/brunette shy/outgoing city/country quiet/talkative tall/short style/humor etc. for joe

Joe doesnt know but he doesnt have style so she should have that.

 

OMG WHAT THE EVER LOVING FUCK IS GOING ON WITH THIS EPISODE?

you can't post when you are entering data into a dating site for the Duggar Boys 

 

[MarblesMom]

Clearly, this is an infomercial for the remaining eligible Duggar bachelors.

TBH I prefer the 70's game show version over this mess.

[VixenToast]

Hello #7. Meet Joe. He's got a lot of great qualities. He has been to fundie cult boot camp where he learned lots of different skill sets and became a man. He's sweet. And caring. He wants a lover who loves Jesus and who can take care of him. Any takers?! 

Wow. They're gonna do Josiah next? Damn, did Joshley screw up their marriagability or what? I mean, I know Marjorie and Josiah quietly calling it quits right after Joshgate 1 was pretty suspicious but...

[VixenToast]

My roomie is sitting next to me while I watch this (later we will stream the VP debate). Then she uttered this:

*Jinger full frontally hugs Jeremy*

"Watch her be allergic to his sperm..."

[nst]

is it wrong that I changed the channel to watch the debates when I am Canadian 

this show needs to be cancelled 

give me airport rage instead 

[Buzzard]

Flashbacks of Michelle in between jessa and bin

Jeremy – I appreciate chaperones for having accountability.  Its fun when you have chaperones like her siblings

Flashback to LAST WEEK at the water park

 

Bin – when we first started texting they were a part of the group text. It helped them to get to know me and theyd hop in

 

Derick – we printed out our standard and geve them to our chaperone.  No point if they don’t know our standards

Flashback to a picnic with james

 

We didn’t want to be alone, wanted to save our first kiss

 

Jill – we were greatful when we didn’t have to do that alone.

 

Flashback to j’derick and jill out with jana and joy.

Josiah – youre just kind of sitting there and they aren’t talking to you.  It can be a long several hours.

 

Jessa – we’re jumans and its not easy to have strict guidelines but it was what we needed.  Save special moments for milestones

 

J’boys talk about what their standards would be.  They don’t know…

Josiah – if I was in a courtship I’d want to have chaperones.  I want to respect her.

 

Josiah – I’m 20 and I’m 8.  I’m the meat, the good stuff. I’m the jokester of the family.  I do strange animal noises (chirps well).

The j’kids are asked the same stupid question about what type of girl Josiah wants.   He needs someone organized, quieter than him.  She has to accept his humor.

 

Next up, jed and jer!

[crazysnark]

I thought they were showing the engagement this episode......wtf. There is enough interesting stuff going on that they shouldn't have to drag this out. They could have already announced Jessa's pregnancy and had  episodes on Anna and how she is adjusting to Josh being home with 4 kids. That and I want her to have some sort of income in the very rare event that she wants to leave. 

 

 

 

[Yaoichan12]

I was so certain that we were going to get the engagement episode this week. That was what they showed last week. False Advertisement! LOL We did not need all this filler crap.

[Exjw2015deed]

Can someone please make a gif of Joseph Duggar licking his teeth now? 

[MarblesMom]

OMG I am LAUGHING!  That is gold.

 

[Buzzard]

Counting on - Why are they even pretending this isnt a singles ad?  Part 4

I'm now reminded of the "lydia of purple" site of old with the ad for her girls... especially the one that was "always ready."

 

Jeremy - if youre in a long distance relationship keep your phone cahrged.

Flashbacks to all the married girls face timing

Bin - when we started we were long distance. I couldnt just drive over.  We talked over the phone and we'd have an hour a day

Joy - inger in on the phone a lot

flashback to jinger on the camping trip with her phone

 

jana - she used to never know where her phone was and now she always has it

Josiah - some of the challenge of a long distance courtship is not meeting families. It teaches you patience.

Flashback to jill facetiming with derick.

 

Jeremy - take advantage of this unique time to get to know eachotehr heart to heart.

jessa - with a long distance relationship you miss that in person contact but it can be a good thing because youre communicating and thats what courtship is about.

Flashback to derick's awkward song in the square.

derick - our courtship was long distance and we wanted time to get to know eachother. we waited a month of time physically before I asked her to marry me.

JIll will "yes, totally" marry him.

Jessa explains how fast the courtship was.  Maybe jinger will be faster.

JInger and jeremy make it to philadelphia.  They get in an suv.  The goal is to meet relatives.

Omg... I'm gonna lose that container of yogurt I just ate that I hoped would settle my stomach. #Gross

[MargaretElliott]

God, this questioning thing is so desperate. it's like, "PLEASE MARRY US. WE'RE AWESOME AND GODLY AND WE HAVE SKILLS."

I am impressed with Josiah's birdcalls (I love weird skills. My boyfriend juggles). And his sense of humor. I'd court him, if he wasn't associated with the Duggarborg and steeped in kool-aid. He seems like one of the brighter ones (though that isn't exactly difficult).

Is it weird that minors are being advertised for marriage? Like, Jed and Jer seventeen. And that's certainly what it feels like. Is that weird? It's a little weird. And their siblings are weirded out by the questions as well- "In my head they're still little boys!"

And now, looking back, Jessa doesn't look particularly thrilled during her engagement. Maybe that's just me speculating. But Jill is laughing and grinning and vocal during her engagement. I dunno.

These Duggar relationships are just dull by now, they're not new. Does JimBoob think they'll still have a show when Josie weds? Unlikely.

[Buzzard]

I'm pretty sure it would have been more interesting to watch michelle interact with the random people in the airport for an hour during the delay.

Also, why were they flying to dallas to go to philly? Um.... how about you fly in the correct direction?  A re route to atlanta or chicago would have made more sense!

[season of life]

Jeremy: If you're in a long distance relationship, keep your phone charged.

No shit, Sherlock. 

[Buzzard]

I'm wondering if this was a "throw away" episode because of the debate.  They didnt expect real ratings, so dont burn the engagement episode.  It seems cobbled together just to fill space.

[JMO]

This episode was insanely boring. I did a mandatory training class on my tablet while it was on and don't feel that I missed anything.  I love how they all completely pretend that Josh doesn't exist. In the previous courting flashbacks we got to hear him yammer on about his thwarted proposal over ribs. Now he just doesn't exist. I wouldn't want him in this episode and wish this one would completely disappear but I would watch updates on what it's like to have him back.

Thank Goodness that as a redhead I am excluded!

Not to mention, we were spared flashbacks of hand sex
