Season Six Episode Eight

Big 3 Trilogy – Kevin

This episode is mainly about Kevin. I think Kevin was a little selfish as a kid. He was always whinning about something. Even when he became a young adult; he seems to always have these problems.

I like this Kevin now; not the younger Kevin. He is insecure but is now at least trying to be more considerate of others. Even though he is a movie star, he has not idea what he wants to do with his life.

Him taking those twins on the plane for a trip to the cabin was a brave move. He had a time on the plane with them and everyone was looking at him with the dirty look. His trip back on the plane was a lot better; and he was getting smiles from the passengers.

In my opinion, Kevin is looking for the love he lost. He wants the family life he had when his Dad was alive. Hopefully, in this final season, he will find love again. Who will he end up with?

Season Six Episode Eight

Big 3 Trilogy – Kate

This episode was nothing like I expected. Kate finally goes to San Francisco where Toby works. Toby is very excited and planned their entire weekend. Kate on the other hand does not seem happy to go; and she has this negative energy.

Toby wants his family to move there and he has looked at a house and everything. Kate is not pleased about that.; she gives him a hard time. They go to his boss’s house for a party and she is not happy about that. Kate finds out that Toby does not tell her about a job offer he had back in LA and she gets very upset. That news just sent her over the edge.

In my opinion, I think she is being just a little irritated. She is not able to look at the big picture. He did plan their future life without consulting her, but she has to realize he loves his job and is not leaving it. All I can think of is that she does not want to move; and expecting him to eventually find a job closer to home. I think she is also jealous because Toby has lost all this weight; and she feels left behind. I know from the previews that they end up breaking up; not sure who will ask first. Kate just seems to always want her way and not willing to compromise when it really matters. What do you think?
