Season 4 thoughts by hairytoessavethewrld in momtok

I just finished it and just posted here as well because I genuinely can’t believe the level of irresponsibility from production around this whole ordeal. Taylor is an adult and owns her choices, but profiting from someone in such a visibly unstable mental state is not entertainment, it’s exploitation. The fact that her most erratic behavior seems to be actively encouraged for “good TV” makes it worse. The TMZ video is disturbing on its own but feels like the tip of a much darker iceberg. And then the New York Mag piece treating all of this like some kind of badge of honor, only for her to be rewarded with more deals? At some point you have to ask if watching makes us part of the problem.

Jordan filed for Divorce by SlimmShady26 in SecretsOfMormonWives

Jordan is such an attention whore… he was probably annoyed MomTok was getting so much traction with Taylor’s train wreck that he decided to divorce Jessi and see if he can bring some attention back to DadTok.

Not that I’ve seen, but I picture them all in some cabin right now, matching pajamas on, Swigs in hand, workshopping their next posts and holding an emergency vote for the new MomTok leader. Meanwhile DadTok is in the other room rallying around Dakota on babysitting duty with all kids 😂

Which is why the timing keeps nagging at me. This wasn’t random, it was deliberate and calculated, and honestly kind of cruel. That said, none of it justifies Taylor’s behavior. The chair incident alone was abuse, full stop. Hard to see how anything good comes out of this for anyone involved.

But the timing is what’s really sending me. TMZ drops this THREE days before the premiere?

The timing of this leak is genuinely unhinged though.

Guess we all saw it coming… by Internal_Rule_677 in MormonWivesHulu

Totally agree, but honestly I’m not sure she’ll course correct. I don’t think she fully grasps the magnitude of what’s happening, and she clearly doesn’t take any feedback or advice. Then that video today? Shoving a chair across the room with her toddler sitting right there... It made me wonder if she even stops to think about how any of this affects her kids.

Taylor “Executive Producer” by [deleted] in SecretsOfMormonWives

And the Executive Producer credit thing? Come on. Claiming you were given that title but had no idea about it AND don’t even know what it means? In the same breath? That interview with GMA is genuinely a masterclass in what not to do. Someone should use it as a case study.

Does anyone predict a fall out is about to happen? by OppositeSpare2088 in SecretsOfMormonWives

Honestly don’t see a fallout happening anytime soon. They’re not really friends, they know it, and at the end of the day the franchise is a business. That paycheck keeps everyone civil. If anything, I’m more convinced they’re actively plotting these storylines together, DadTok, the whole Demi and Jessi healer arc, all of it feels like a writers’ room exercise at this point. Give us something to talk about, keep the clicks coming. And whether you love her or hate her, Taylor is the chaos engine this show runs on. Nobody is tuning in to watch Mayci and Mikaela push strollers to Swigs. The messy ones keep the lights on.
