A & C.

Randall is my favorite character. I think his mom hid his bio father from him to protect him.

Kate's boyfriend is a jerk. He knows she's serious about losing the weight, pursues her until he gets her, then announces he's abandoning the weight-loss program. I think he wants her to fail, too.

I think dad either had a heart attack, or he died in an accident. I, too, am curious to know how mom wound up marrying the best friend. All three kids seem to dislike him; after so many years have passed and they merely tolerate them out of respect for their mother, it must be something fairly unsavory. Affair, maybe?

A co-worker told me that the actress who plays Kate has it in her contract that she has to lose weight as the show progresses. So if this is still on in 2 years, Kate might be skinny.

I watch the show and it's ok. Kind of reminds me of Parenthood in a way. I am sick of Kate & Toby though and it's not b/c they're fat but because being fat is so they talk about. I know some fat people and they actually have conversations about things beside food & being fat. I always scream at the tv, we get it, you're fat. Now talk about something else.

Something made me think Toby quit trying to lose weight because it was so much easier for him than it was for Kate. He didn't want to make her jealous. That's just how I saw it, maybe it's not true.
