Here's the thing... I have a tough time with marital problems for ANYONE on their first season. You don't have the investment there. And it's even worse because it's RYNE — BARF. I really can't stand that man and he's ruining her freshman season for me. (LOVE her work ethic and love seeing that story on the show, especially with Heather being able to understand as the spouse of someone similar!)

I feel like this season started off strong and funny. It felt refreshing. But now its lost in the sauce. Dr. Jen is interesting to me only because of her marital issues. It seems like the grown man who changed his name at like 50 is ignoring his wife’s needs and the love is gone in their relationship. PUT ON A SHIRT AND PAY ATTENTION TO YOUR FAMILY RYNE

What I like most about Dr Jen is that she embodies what I believe the Southern California lifestyle to be about. I conjured this idea of what it should be from TV and movies, of course, and Dr Jen fits it to a T. It's just nice to see something "make sense" like that. 

Dr. Jen is the newest housewife and one a lot of people are calling boring, a flop, a non-event. And I completely disagree. I am enjoying her, I find her storyline to be the most relatable, and giving me old school housewives vibes. 

I can't figure out Noella's situation, I don't know what's the truth and what's not, Heather is building a summer home in Mexico, and honestly, Emily, Gina, and Shannon, while enjoyable, I don't know what they are bringing to the table in regards to storyline. 

But Dr. Jen is opening up about her horrible marriage to that shirtless monster, and struggling to balance being a career woman and a mom.
