Love & Marriage: DC

I was actually one of the people who didn't care for this show to begin with. But then I thought about it, and I rarely like the first season of shows. I think I'm just not into that "getting to know the cast" season. Ultimately I decided to show wasn't for me and didn't even finish season one. But then I heard on the radio that they touch on topics that are generally taboo within the black community, specifically mental health, so I started Season 2.

I must say, it's really not that bad! I like the ladies a lot more than I did on the first season, specifically, Ashley and Erana. I am a Ready to Love fan so I was already familiar with Clifton and Joi. I'm hoping to see some positivity from the two of them because I was so turned off by their behavior (primarily Joi's) during the reunion show but I digress.

As with any reality show, they have their share of drama, but I'm really enjoying the family interactions. Jamie and little Jamie have so much work to do, but they are trying and they are a complete family unit...something that's so often not displayed on black tv. Ashley is being completely transparent about her perspective of what she experienced as a 16 year old girl. I admire that quality, as that's something I struggle with and it's just refreshing to see.

Like I said, it's not perfect. It's still a reality show and there are definitely moments that we are contrived, but it's not a complete train wreck. Give it a chance!

Such a disappointment because I WAS a Monique fan and come to find out the supporting characters on her show are so boring and the show seems scripted. NOTE TO PRODUCERS, you should do your research on the demographic that watches the show. For readers of this review, this old looking hag with all this mileage on her face, supposed to be in her mid 30s , made a comment about not wanting to be an old hag with menopause. From what she described sounds like she is going through perimenopause. Because the characters are not educated enough to understand these matters, I don't think they have any voice for women on anything concerning love. Dumb old looking chick check out the pleasure docu on Netflix. Since this unreality show is not good entertainment, I suggest the housewives of Potomac, who are better informed about women's bodies and try not to insult a large part of their demographic. IJS.

Wow...winter had them pegged....period...and I didn't see any fake with her unlike Monique coming to them the wrong way....and I liked Monique..still do but she should have presented that issue more correctly...period..ashley..need to calm down...

I hate people who think they're always right.. Ashley ! She needs to style up. QuickSilva is scared of Ashley think about this!!! If the husband tries to correct her..ooh lord he knows her ,she'd probably blow up.

I love the rest of the team members but I also feel the group needs to be more exciting rather than fight the entire show just because Ashley feels she is above everyone and anything, her attitude is quite a lot.

Ashley I just need to let her know that she thinks everyone should like her lol.

What's wrong with her ??? Everything is wrong about her and that's why my conversation my comment is all about her attitude she wants to be adored ..how? Pls earn it girl.

I am not interested in watching grown adult women acting out continuously with childish behavior. I can tolerate an episode with misunderstandings but not every episode. This is so much like the other housewife's show (I stopped watching them).
