The Return and Demise of the Deadbeat Dad | Mom

[@minastamenkovic162]

I love the actress that plays Bonnie: so real and so humane; such an inspiration. The whole show is amazing and the actors high quality. They made the show really unique and won sympathies all across the world. ♥️

[@antmagor]

A bit of a generational curse here. Bonnie withheld information about Christie’s father. Christie withheld information about Violet’s father. And both grew up with an inaccurate picture of their mothers. The real story of one was more of a Hell scape than the other, but you get the gist.

[@krielkip]

History tends to repeat itsself.

[@Karmaisabreez]

Violet's dad was beating her mom. Christie's wasn't.

[@TheJonathansk]

I'm glad that they bring back Alvin for Bonnie and Christy, i'm sad that he died. Bonnie really loves Alvin, she was really really sad and became crazy afther he died. But I'm glad that they bring Adam for Bonnie, but I`m sad that they cancelled the show. Grrrrrr....

[@serahkivindye1370]

Its so crazy how a man can tell tou to get rid of an unborn baby or leaves when you actually have the baby and then comes back and claims the kid after all the hurt , pain , endurance...trying to rip benefits, ..and cries wolf , makes you feel guilty and tries to win the love of your child

[@weenfain2321]

These comments are absolutely insane.. it was a SHOW. It was funny. Let it be funny. I use to watch it years ago and these comments are like it personally hurt yall.

[@chriiiiis]

​@@weenfain2321It also had serious moments. I'm sorry that not everyone is emotionally immature and can't take everything as a joke like you can

[@Karmaisabreez]

@chriiiis it's very sad that you think being able to enjoy a show for what it is (a fiction) is being emotionally immature. Maybe you need some therapy here.

[@elizabethjarrett8473]

I miss this show SO MUCH. learned A LOT about addiction and what a terrible disease it is and what it takes to live with it, in recovery. A neverending rollercoaster of trying to just do your best each day WHILE trying not to stumble and fall back into the crutch of drinking or using. This show was REAL about it, no blurred lines and without religion being shoved down your throat. One of THE best shows ever made because there was NO BS and the writing was amazing !!!!! MISS YOU LADIES !!!! 🤎🤎🤎🤎🤎🤎

[@jojomomapimp]

I miss it too

[@hsd287]

I also loved it Christy especially was the heart of it and ofc Bonnie too along with all the AA ppl ❤❤❤

[@LaurenFinucci]

Well said my friend 💕

[@reneshay889]

I agree! I loved the show! ❤❤❤

[@lindamcgregor4080]

Agree 💯

[@ShalakaLSM]

I love this show. ❤ So underrated. I wish it was more popular and more people watch it.

[@donnabacon4681]

Fantastic TV series. It took something as terrible as addiction, adding humor, all the while making it real. One episode a gal OD, very sad, at the end, Bonnie, Christy and the then Surgeon General talked about how dangerous is addiction and to seek help. This show shined a light on all types of addictions, what it can do to yourself and how it affects others, the need for meetings and sponsors; hopefully, all those who don't deal with addiction have a much better understanding.

[@daniellesjerven6593]

I’ve watched this show on and off. It’s real & raw and funny 😄

[@c.barrett5114]

I could see his point if he had just left her because obviously she did some terrible stuff but its the fact he left the newborn that bothers me and is not a small thing and he is downplaying

[@tamerastone4732]

I never heard about this show, until now. Very well written, and funny!

[@geneziogenezio3299]

0:30 THAT IS HORRIBLE WHEN MOTHERS LIKE HER DO THAT TO THE DAUGHTER OR SON...SINCE WHEN A LIE IS BETTER THAN THE TRUTH, ITS MENTAL PROBLEMS TO ME.

[@katherenewedic8076]

AND IT'S BAD WHEN FATHERS BLAME MOTHERS AND SAY THEY LEFT THEN MOM NOT THE CHILDREN AND THEN NEVER HELP THE CHILD

[@magicinthemundane9527]

A lie is often kinder than the truth; ‘your dad didn’t want you’ versus ‘your dad loves you very much but just can’t be with you.’ Or, even worse, if she had been the product of an assault it would be horrendously cruel to tell her that growing up. Which isn’t to say you necessarily should lie, just that often the truth is cruel and a lie is kinder.

[@yevodee4024]

[@purplebean8989]

Did you miss the part where he left his newborn in the hospital with nowhere to live? And then made a whole new family like nothing happend?

[@stevecook1675]

Best show on TV. Very real.

[@carieferkovich1928]

Show more of MOM ❤❤❤😂😊

[@pamwilkinson3751]

Best show with the original cast,wasn't the same after Christy left. 😢

[@shayhay2411]

That’s Ed Asner, isn’t it?

[@alyzu4755]

Yup! 🥰

[@seagirl1100]

I think Mom aired for 9 years.

[@thesenuttz3820]

Calls 911 says someone is having a heart attack theb doesnt say an address 😂ya there getting there

[@adriandepaz6454]

The title is unfair. Alvin was a decent guy

[@ljd1031]

Even in tvland decent guys don't abandon their newborns

[@Mugiwara2k]

I wouldn’t call a guy who abandons his girlfriend and newborn a “good guy”.

[@adriandepaz6454]

@ I agree. I'm simply saying he tried to redeem himself

[@Mooodyyhhh]

Yea but he WAS a deadbeat. Even if he tried redeeming himself (he never did anything amazing to redeem himself tbh). He abandoned his baby and gf at birth!! And then didn’t ever reach out!! Ever!! The exact definition of a deadbeat

[@saleemahfareed4495]

I wish they would of kept Christy children and her ex in their they were funny 😂

[@OutcastDimensionTCG]

That's so sad. She was finally happy. Is this before or after Adam? I've only seen clips.

[@sg-vp2qg]

Before Adam

[@IamFavoured-ph1qx]

Can you upload more of this.

[@sadeyezduece]

My favorite part I don't want to influence you😮😂😂😂

[@user-dh4mi6ir2m]

What is that episode? 3:10

[@weenfain2321]

My mother in law and I absolutely loved this show.. I’ve been with her son since I was 15. An addict. She went through it all with me and so grateful to have my in laws and I know most cannot say that. I’m beyond grateful. Addiction is a horrible disease.. My dad died from it lost most of my family from it and blessed with my in laws at a young age and still here 23 years later. We both loved watching this show would crack up.

[@jeffs.s.]

I miss this show

[@barbaraolson6783]

Great show, wish it was still on.

[@kaffir76]

1:00 This season with Alvin was still good. But the last couple seasons were major shite 😂😂

[@esmeraldagems9487]

Honestly Bonnie was a terrible person in her younger days 🤣

I lost interest in this show when they had Bonnie forgive and get back together with AL

[@kateturner1849]

@annearly3200 - If you watched later episodes you will see that the actual "Dad" was an abusive and violent ex-boyfriend that Bonnie never told Christie about. I think this guy probably didn't know that either.

[@xqqqme]

God, the laugh track is horrible (assuming they can ever be good)! It's not even appropriate here. But if you must....way too quick on the trigger and no trail off. I heard about this show only today, via an episode of the Kevin Pollak Chat Show here on KZbin, in which Allison was his guest. And this ran for 6 seasons?

[@becker8192]

Nice. Threats of physical violence against MEN is still funny. And here I thought America liked equality.

[@HaiLagi-g4v]

calm down, it was threat against someone who abandoned her, thats why its funny and relatable. dont play the victim card too soon

[@scarletwarlock3261]

True. It’s important to keep that in mind this particular man hurt her in ways that will forever impact her. Abandoning her and his own newborn child. With less then $20. And without even the respect to tell them he was leaving. He took the east way out and it’s super rotten of him. He had it comming.
