[@dvdhound79]

The reveal of this episode is something I always remember as being both shocking and effective. It was handled with aplomb, had humor and a message of the unspoken side of domestic abuse that resonates today.

[@ilitsa]

This episode hits hard, my last relationship was abusive as hell. She did it all. Physical, mental, emotional. It felt like I had no where to go, and was convinced no one would care if I tried to get help. She had me convinced no one loved me other than her, and that I *needed* her, would be nothing without her. I finally got out of it a year and a half ago, and am still trying to recover, I (obviously) can talk about it more openly now, but this episode definitely puts a spotlight on a subject that's very much overlooked. Thank you @christophertitustv for posting this, it very well could help someone else that feels alone in the world.

[@GrimmShadowsII]

Man that sucks and it's what abusive people tend to do. Make you feel isolated like no one cares so you just stay and take it, like in this episode where after the fight she got naked and convinced him, or tried to, that it was his fault and she hated fighting when in reality the opposite was true.

[@ilitsa]

@@GrimmShadowsII yeah, the same stuff happened to me. She had me convinced that the only reason anyone talked to me was because of her, and if I left no one would want me anymore. This episode was way too real, but that's what makes it so good

[@PistonAvatarGuy]

I went through something similar to what Titus went through in this episode, except I did end up with nowhere to go, because I worked with this woman and she got me fired from my job and then she got me kicked out of my apartment. For some reason, the police department in the city that we lived in was completely indifferent to abuse, even when it was her mom being abused by her drunk father. I had called the police multiple times, neighbors and bystanders had called the police on my behalf on several occasions (one where she tried to run me over with her car), and the police had even witnessed her punching me in the back of the head as I walked away from her, just by chance, but nothing ever happened to her and I was actually talked out of pressing charges against her! I still haven't been able to recover emotionally and have been told by my doctor that I'm likely having trouble sleeping due to PTSD. Ah well, no one cares, so why should I, right?

[@ilitsa]

@@PistonAvatarGuy That's terrible, I'm so sorry

[@BradenENelson]

Man or woman, there is NO shame in being part of an abusive relationship. Be honest and open with those who REALLY care about you. The *aggressors* deserve the shame; and those who ignore or laugh at your plight can go fuck themselves.

[@robert_bbiii]

One of the reasons I loved the show when it was on is it was tackling issues like this before other shows even thought about it

[@johnny-becker]

I think this is one of the true stories of Titus' life. He has mentioned it a few times during his stand-ups.

[@GrimmShadowsII]

The show is 90% or so true all the people in the show have a real life counterpart, atleast main cast and select guest stars, and they had to sign papers agreeing not to sue over the shows depiction of them or something. But yeah he really dated a really short woman that beat him up.

[@rebelwithacause666]

Most of this show are true events just altered slightly to fit for tv.

[@canaisyoung3601]

It is. It was in Norman Rockwell is Bleeding and the very first episode (Dad's Dead), where he mentioned that the last girl he dated was a 5 foot, 100 lb Jewish girl who was so abusive to him that he has yet to forgive the Jewish community.

[@belldn3]

Awesome freaking show that still holds up to this day? I think everyone can find something in this show that applies to their own lives.

[@__Andrew]

My own "Noelle" was a self-harmer. She never hurt me, just herself. But she used that to keep me with her way longer than i should have. I always appreciated this show for being able to tackle some deeper more thought provoking story-lines while still making it comedic. I dont think i've ever thought back and laughed at my time with my own ex, but i sure learned a lot (like Titus) about what makes an actual good partner.

[@timcarter1164]

I love the fact Christopher Titus is willing to take us to such Dark Places with his stand-up act and this show. But, I've often wondered as deep and dark as he will take us into his past, how bad are the things that happened to him that he's not willing to talk about?

[@NewfieLawNerd]

Tim Carter Dude he's talked about being suicidal and both his mom and sister committing suicide. Nothing is too dark or personal for him

[@UlrichTheOmega]

That would be Carrying Monsters.

[@timcarter1164]

@@NewfieLawNerd he's very open about a number of things, but I still have to think there's probably something that he's just not willing to part with so to speak. Everybody has their darkest moments.

[@rebelwithacause666]

The only story I've heard him talk about that he hasn't made a joke of was his sister's suicide. He did a radio interview about the story it was dark and sad.

[@UlrichTheOmega]

In Carrying Monsters, he goes there. Let me tell you I've never heard an audience so silent before a big laugh.

It only took me three viewings to memorize his "Night Before" story. Glad to know that I had still remembered it perfectly. And one time, I had paused my copy of the episode just as she was throwing her punch when Titus opened the door. One of the funniest frames I had seen.

I had a Noel once she was 4'10" though thank you Titus

[@donniegirl4evamel460]

This by far is one of my favorite episodes. I too married my abusive, lying, mentally unstable mother and spent a miserable 10 years with him. Although he's not dead my dad and I often discussed how I must have been trying to reclaim and fix the relationship with my own mother through that ex husband. I know Christopher won't see this comment but his comedy all those years ago helped me heal from both those abusive relationships it was nice to know I wasn't alone with this screwed up mother and ex

[@donniegirl4evamel460]

let me also add..after growing up watching my dad be a punching bag to my biological psychotic mother, not because he was a wimp but because his own father was extremely abusive and for him men didnt leave and they never hit back... a huge thank you to Titus not being afraid to share that men get abused, we often at some point draw in the poisonous relationship we had as children, and we live and overcome and hopefully choose better... real men get knocked around sometimes because the wimps are the one's doing the abusing.

“The only one I told was my dad. There’s always one guy in your life you can tell anything to…someday I’ll meet that guy” I actually think Papa Titus was the perfect person to tell. If there’s one person who could understand staying with a crazy woman for great sex, it is him.

I know Noelle was abusive as revealed through the episode but the way Erin is in this episode is also fucking weird. Jealous as fuck over the fact Titus was simply at the wake of someone he used to date. That's not normal. Granted we eventually found out the real Erin was evil so in hindsight it makes sense but shit dude.

[@Warmishcookies]

Yeah, I was thinking Erin came across as having zero empathy and being kinda abusive in this episode.

I can't lie, I kinda hared Erin in this episode. She was being completely out of pocket. This dude is telling her that he was being abused and the first thing she does is clown him. Can you imagine the tables being turn on this situation? I'm glad they pointed out that men get abused all the time but rarely say anything for this very reason. People just don't take men being abused seriously. However, if a man even pushes a woman out of his way, he is looking at 10-15 years. At the end of the day, everyone needs to keep their damn hands to themselves. I truly love this series. Probably the only series I've watched that tackled this subject.

Is every woman Titus ever dated (aside from his current partner, obvi) a complete abusive psycho...? Well, at least he's got a type.

[@canaisyoung3601]

That's because he has issues about his mentally deranged mother. Or he had bad luck because the women his dad dated/married/slept with were also deranged.

[@canaisyoung3601]

That's because he went after deranged women just like his father. Until one day, he met Bombshell Rae, who had all the good aspects of his mom and was actually from a functional, if overprotective, family.

[@canaisyoung3601]

Wasn't there one episode where he mentioned an ex who died when she crashed her car into a Dairy Queen? If not, then I'm pretty sure Noelle either had sugar imbalance problems that led to her death or she killed herself (just like Titus' mom).

Do wonder about that, Also Curious if Titus still has Ideas like this show for a new Sitcom. But the Show also had some Slapstick which is severely underrated as well. Than again always have favored High Energy and quick Comedy. And this show had all of it even went to dark yet informative places.

[@josefreire4355]

Domestic abuse is not a laughing matter. That a man would be willing to stay in such a relationship is not inspiring. People should realize that the first time a domestic partner raises his or her hand to hit them, it should be the last. Because it will only get worse. And if you then bring children into it -- well, that just escalates the insanity. Unlike baseball, with domestic abuse, ONE HIT AND YOU'RE OUT!!!!

[@GrimmShadowsII]

It's possible the family wouldn't sign a release and then the network would be at risk for being sued, so the name change makes sense but yeah changing when she died just to show the wake was kind of weird. But it's still a pretty good episode that's funny while still discussing a serious issue that's not discussed much, abuse period yet alone a girl beating a guy almost twice her size.
