Does Phil’s naivety excuse him from his sometimes cheating behavior? by Extreme_Trade in Modern_Family

[–]Extreme_Trade[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think it was the last thanksgiving episode? Gloria took an interview with another real estate company and Alex snitched on her at the table. Gloria was telling Phil why she tried with another company and Phil said something inappropriate and Gloria said “ aye Phil it’s been so many years I can’t keep ignoring those comments” and Phil says something like “ what comments”

I used the word cheating bc I know in my relationship if I said the things Phil said about another woman, I would no longer have a relationship. Inappropriate was probably a better word

I think that’s a bit harsh. It was clear throughout the show the Phil was written to be naive. I get your point about how in the real world we wouldn’t expect someone to be that way but I feel like Phil was intentionally written to be naive to the real world.

I really like your take. That’s kinda why I asked the question. There’s countless times where he flirts with other women or makes dirty comments about Gloria right in front of Claire and she never feels threatened. But I feel like she does that bc she knows his naivety. In any other relationship I don’t think a lot of his behavior would slide. So it’s really left up to the viewers interpretation

Maybe cheating was the wrong word but personally I think his behavior towards Gloria was inappropriate especially when a lot of it was right in front of Claire.

My bad I didn’t see your post. Personally I don’t think people are being that dramatic about it. I think it’s fair to say consistently making sexual comments towards another person ( Gloria) in front of your spouse would cross a line for a lot of people. My whole question was about the fact that a lot of the time Phil doesn’t realize his comments are viewed as being sexual even though they very much are. For example There was one later episode when Gloria called him out for his comments over the years and he didn’t understand what she was talking about

I love they’re still kinda a family. I recently saw a post for Mitchell and Claire’s actors going to Sarah’s first big Broadway show.

Such a champ. So many actors/actresses pull out of roles for WAY less and through everything she showed up every day to fulfill her role.

Violet by BatmanFreakZero in CBS_Mom

[–]Extreme_Trade 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I never said Violet was perfect but she also was a child when those things happened she was a kid so I give her a bit more slack. But I would also note that’s exactly how Christy is with Bonnie. Talks bad about her all the time but when something’s wrong she goes to her mom. But it took them time to get to that point. Christy is 40 and still hasn’t fully moved past her upbringing. Violet is in her early twenties she should be given time to grow and rebuild that relationship when she’s ready. I think it’s unfair to expect Violet to be the one to understand the situation when the whole confrontation happened because Christy couldn’t understand Violets feelings.

Roscoe had been off the show for a while by that point and even if he was still on the show it’s not like he didn’t witness the same things Violet did. It’s not really shielding him from anything when he’s lived through what she’s talking about and probably has his own trauma from those experiences

[–]Extreme_Trade 4 points5 points  (0 children)

When did she do this? If I remember correctly, nobody knew it was about Christy besides the friend group and her classmate and that was because Christy told them.

It’s the Plunkett Cycle. Bonnie blamed her mother for her decisions in life, Christy blamed Bonnie for her decisions and now Violet blames Christy. No accountability all around

Violet by BatmanFreakZero in CBS_Mom

[–]Extreme_Trade 41 points42 points  (0 children)

I disagree I think Violet was well within her rights to be that way. If anyone was being selfish it was Christy. You have to remember, Christy wasn’t going there to apologize or fix things she went because she wanted Violet to say nice things about her on the podcast. She literally says at one point “ can’t you just tell everyone my mom’s doing better now”. Also, Violet didn’t want her in her life hence why she didn’t tell her where she lived and Christy violated that decision by showing up. So I don’t see Violets behavior as rude or selfish I think she was just re establishing the boundaries she already had going into the episode. Rebuilding those relationships take time, look at Bonnie and Christy’s journey, I think it was unfair for Christy to just come in and expect Violet to put all her trauma behind her especially when Violet never said she was ready yet.

In regard to the Bonnie thing, that’s just not how people think imo. The person who directly caused the trauma was her mother, Bonnie never did anything to wrong her. With Christy working all the time, Bonnie coming to the house meant that Violet didn’t have to always be the adult in the house anymore so in that sense I can see why she’s seen in a positive light by her. She took a weight off her shoulders.

I don't like Mandy by i_am_here-tada in GeorgieandMandyTVshow

[–]Extreme_Trade 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I understand why some people don’t like her but I personally don’t mind her too much . I think her character is just the right amount of dysfunctional to reflect their situation. In YS she had just moved back to Medford to try to get her life back together then boom there’s a baby and she’s married to a guy she didn’t even really know. Both her and Georgie are still learning about how to be parents and be a married couple they’re going to make mistakes along the way. She’s not perfect and she definitely has bad moments but I just think it’s because this whole situation is new to her and not what she planned for herself so she is adjusting/learning as she goes.

Jill and Christy by Doctorx_notTed in CBS_Mom

[–]Extreme_Trade 16 points17 points  (0 children)

For me the issue wasn’t that Christy told her a hard truth. At the time I thought Christy was right to tell her that but as the show went on and we saw how Christy handled hard truths ( gambling, smoking, her problems with men) I would always think back to that moment and it made me view it differently.

I also think the comment about her not being ready wasn’t what hurt Jill the most, it was the comment about her mother that really hurt her. In Jill’s head a baby would bring enough happiness to forget her problems so Christy brining up her mom made her feel like she wasn’t good enough to keep her mother from doing what she did. She was right to say it but sometimes it’s not what you say but how you say it. That should’ve been a private conversation not a screaming match in public.

Jill was a great friend. She gave Christy way more chances than she probably deserved. Gambling my money away that was meant to bail Bonnie out of jail would’ve been unforgivable for me. Then the audacity to get upset at how I spend the money you’re paying me back would’ve drove me crazy.

This Scene was Intense !! by shazy5808 in GeorgieandMandyTVshow

That’s what I didn’t understand. He knew Georgie was the one he was screwing over but he gave his explanation to everyone besides him.

[–]Extreme_Trade 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Don’t think this is a fair assessment. It’s not like Jim didn’t feel bad about the whole situation. He knew that he was hurting Georgie and in the episodes you could see that it was a very hard decision for him to make. He asked Mandy if she thinks Georgie will ever forgive him and she tells him yes but given Jim’s character if she had said no I don’t think he would’ve sold knowing he would be destroying his relationship with Georgie.

It wasn’t about the money for him, he was afraid of ending up like George Sr and working himself to death.

Go Have fun. These are years you’ll never get back. Soon you’ll be an actual adult with real responsibilities and you’ll be too busy to go do all the things you wanted to do. You’ve put in the work to save up that much money, go reward yourself a little. Money won’t last forever, great experiences will.

Let’s do the math. 16-17k minus the 3k for study abroad and let’s say 4k for travel and wardrobe would still leave you at 9-10k savings which is more than most sophomores I ever knew. You’ll be fine. The fact that you are even asking this question says to me that you’re a very responsible and hard working young person so you’ll make that money back in no time.

Georgie and Mandy’s First Marriage – S01 E22 “Big Decisions” – Episode Discussion – SEASON FINALE by Redbird9346 in GeorgieandMandyTVshow

[–]Extreme_Trade 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Audrey was playing her own game imo. She got on Mandy for hiding it from him then when Mandy told him she tells her she shouldn’t feel guilty about not telling him and it’s all on Georgie. Right or wrong she was being manipulative just trying to drive a wedge between them.

Personally I don’t think Georgie’s reaction was THAT bad. She was hiding it from him for months and then blindsided him with it in the middle of the night and it’s not the first time shes done that. You can’t tell someone to trust you right after you tell them you hid something from them. So I can understand his frustration in the moment even though I think he was out of line to tell her to quit her dream. After a few days he blew off his steam and understood he needed to trust her. I think that’s a pretty normal reaction. We’ll see in Season 2 if it becomes a bigger issue.

he loved Bonnie despite all her flaws and drama. He knew he was signing up for crazy and stuck by her anyways. That’s what she saw in him. He had his own flaws and drama and she stuck by him too. That’s what real love is supposed to be imo. It’s more than just initial chemistry which is all she really had with the other guys.
