  • The Valley Finale!!!!!!!!

    You guys. We made it!!! 


    This week, recap the absolutely deranged Season 1 finale of The Valley — and honestly? Emmy consideration for whoever edited this fever dream together.

  • The Valley S1 E11: Bless This Mess

    This week on How Are We Forty?, we recap Episode 11 of The Valley — aka “Darkside Danny,” which is rich considering Jax and Jesse are out here behaving like actual sleep paralysis demons while Danny’s greatest crime is…having feelings? The gang is somehow STILL in Big Bear (this trip has lasted longer than some wars), Janet throws the most aggressively Pinterest-2012 baby shower imaginable, Jesse continues his one-man psychological warfare campaign against Danny, and Brittany finally says the word “divorce” out loud. In short: everyone is unwell, and we’re having the time of our lives watching their worlds crumble around them.
