Sweet Magnolias [contains season 2 spoilers]

[MonicaGellerBing]

Just discovered this today and I've watched 5 episodes! It's very sickly sweet and southern with people named Dana Sue and Skeeter 🤣 but it's easy watching and I'm hooked! Anyone else?

But Dana Sue tho... Y'all not think she's due for an ass kicking from her daughter? Caught snagging her ex yet somehow disapproves of a fledgling romance ffs.

Annie is so good to her mum!

Yeah she does and the way Annie got upset when her parents got together, I really felt for her.

I feel like Katie will definitely have a part at one point. I wonder if they had her to try and save their marriage earlier on (as she’s so much younger than the other 2).

I feel like it’s a show that’ll try to be long running so we’ll go through Katie’s teenager years at one point (if they’re lucky with they many seasons!) I guess she also shows the contrasting innocence with her brothers and how they feel about the divorce.

There are books apparently but I’m going to steer clear. I like all the tv surprises.

I hope Dana Sue sorts her wardrobe out.

Quite invested in the budding relationship between Dana Sue's daughter and Trent's son.

Like Helen and Dana Sue but Maddie is just super 'bland'.

'Sweet weeping Jesus!' Is my new go to curse.

Oh, which suitor do we think Helen will choose? (If either)

Helen's suitors are like chalk and cheese so maybe there will be a third who better suits her?

How has Cal transformed into an uber tw* thug? Ridiculous scenes. Helen should choose her new boyfriend over the last one. Won't be watching season 3 as it is just too..... voms in the holy pews*

I did think there was something a bit fishy about Cal! I wonder if they’re writing him out. Don’t get the impression he’s anyone’s favourite.

Ok this is so mean but when Helen cries it’s so over the top and ridiculous!

Like when her and Ryan broke up, so bad!

Definitely @BiscuitLover3678 she overacts all the time, even when she's just talking it's all over the top. The crying is comical

Just had a random thought! Did they say who was behind the gossip page that posted the picture of Dana Sue?! Not sure if I just missed it!

Helen always tries to put in an Oscar winning performance even if she's just saying hello to the postie. I find it quite funny.

No we dont know qho the gossip page is but isnt one of thw girls a photogrpaher?

It actually makes the emotional content less upsetting which in my eyes is a good thing as I watch it for fluff 😂

That was Annie, Dana Sue's daughter so I doubt it would be her as she was embarrassed by her mothers actions

AH yes good point. Any of the other kids?

Hmmm I don't think so but I think you might be on the right track with it being one of the kids

Speaking of which they never really concluded the storyline with Kyle and the gaming creation. Maybe hoping for another season by leaving stuff open

I assumed the photography page was Annie. The one she was supposed to shut down.
