I mean, you couldn't help but like Barbara Jean, but Reba was a push over allowing this woman in her home and pretending life was great with a husband who committed the ultimate betrayal by getting this woman pregnant. Reba was obviously hurt yet they rarely spoke about his infidelity unless it was a passing joke. If I were Reba, I wouldn't hold a grudge but I wouldn't be buddy, buddy with a decietful ex-husband and his mistress either. Brock was a jerk, he barely apologized for leaving Reba with 3 kids (1 a pregnant teen at that) to run off and get married to his assistant whom he knocked up. I could see if they're marriage ended on good terms, then I would have no problem with Reba befriending them, but what BJ and Brock did was betray her and she pretends life is honky dory?! What am I missing here?
 
you are missing that she and brock have 3 children together I understand where you are coming from and how tv shows sometimes insult people in life living in simular situations but the fact is yeah in the show he cheated on her but they are showing a example of how no matter how the marriage goes and how it ends you have to try to be a team for the kids trust me I live this life I have issues with keeping it civil but you have to and they do for the kids sake !
 
OH my god! Thank you!! Finally someone agrees with me on that show. Why would any respectable woman allow that home wrecker into her house???! They make light of the situation all throughout the show. Adultery is not a great theme for a sitcom. Then she allows Brock into her life, too. I understand the whole "keep it together for the kids" idea but that show just goes too far with it. Those two would be dead if it were me. Thank you for this question!
 
What are you missing??? This is a marriage and divorce site for help with problems in the "real" world. "Reba" is a tv show. It's "make believe."

Hope I could help clear that up for you.
 
Rebba is no pushover! She is strong because she gets along with them despite her own pain and discomfort and the reason she does it is for her children. They need their dad in their life, and they need a mom who is happy and emotionally stable despite the cards she got dealt. And its not like she is sugar sweet to them. She is usually rude, and cuts mean jokes, they are just too stupid to "get it".
 
the fact that life isnt perfect but you do what you can to make it easier for the people you love(the kids)
 
Reba?

Reba McFarland from da Bronx has a TV show?

Now, that amazes me, but anger would be a stretch.
 
Well, if Reba wasn't so freaking beautiful I would probably agree that the premise of the show is a bit dorky. But, as I told my wife, once she kicks the bucket, I'm going for Reba! lol. I doubt very seriously that she came up with such a strange sitcom idea on her own. Such a bazaar set up has to at least take a few pro writers to screw it up. However, even with the odd setup, wacky characters, and unrealistic ex-husband and ex-wife relationship, most episodes if not all, have a fabulous "present day" solution to everyday problems. Then you have that pixie smile and those bedroom eyes. Help me I'm drowning!
 
It's called selfless parenting. You hate someone for their betrayal, but bury it to make life easier for your children. And I don't think she is buddy, buddy with BJ, but tolerates her - don't you notice the insults? I also disagree that BJ's character is that likeable - she's a pinhead.
