Welcome To Plathville fans recently tore into Olivia Plath, while simultaneously saying that Barry Plath has her beat. So, what are viewers saying about this based on recent comments from fans making the rounds?
Welcome To Plathville: Olivia Plath And Ethan Plath Split Was A Major Plot Point
As Welcome To Plathville fans will remember based on previous scenes, Olivia Plath and Ethan Plath splitting up and going their separate ways was a big deal in terms of the show’s storyline. Many fans have said for years that these two got married too young, and that they were not a good match to begin with.
Even so, Welcome To Plathville fans saw these two try to work things out, but, they only seemed to get into more fights, especially the harder they tried to keep things together. Even though the writing was on the wall for years, it took these two a long time to finally go their separate ways, and TLC was there to milk all the drama.
Olivia Took On A Bigger Role In TLC Scenes
Following her split from Ethan Plath, TLC gave Olivia her own, solo storyline, as she navigated life following the breakup. For both Ethan and Olivia, the prospect of being on the dating scene after being married for years was daunting, and TLC was there to milk that entire storyline.
As Welcome To Plathville fans remember, Olivia did end up finding a new man through the process of putting herself out there in TLC scenes, and there was an eventual big reveal of the new love in her life. However, while this storyline following Olivia’s journey may be another goldmine for TLC, a lot of watchers are not amused.
Welcome To Plathville Fans Want More Of Barry Plath And Less Of Olivia
Recently, Welcome To Plathville fans went in on TLC essentially giving Olivia Plath her own storyline. From the vast majority of comments, most viewers want to see less of Olivia and more of cast members like Barry Plath. The way many viewers put it, they are not interested in seeing more of Olivia’s journey to “find” herself.
- One commenter recently said: “Can we stop pretending Olivia is still the star of the show? Olivia’s entire storyline is like a bad reality TV spinoff no one asked for. She’s out here acting like she’s the main character in a coming-of-age movie, but honestly, I’d rather watch a full season of Barry trying to fix the lawnmower than endure another episode of Olivia’s “soul-searching” sessions. Anyone else with me?”
- Another commenter said: “it’s because she never had that experience unfortunately. she honestly needs to go to traditional college with all the other homeschoolers and grow up there. source: experience in trad college with a ton of religious homeschoolers.”
- A third person chimed in, adding: “Yeah idk why she’s even on the show anymore. For how much she hated Ethan she sure is clinging to the Plath family name.”
