Dr. Jackie is busier than ever with a top medical practice and new book, but she also has to come to terms with the harsh reality that her husband, Curtis, has been unfaithful.

Dr. Simone is still living the life in her north and south homes, but has the stress of commuting between both put a strain on her marriage and kids?

Toya is reflecting on life in a different way, which places her at odds with Eugene, who is working overtime and not making enough time for some much needed TLC.

Meanwhile, Dr. Heavenly has expanded her dentistry practice and is continuing her spiritual journey to get away from conflict, but somehow drama still follows her like a magnet.

Seeing Ballers up here (which I have never watched) just reminded me about the cancellation of Survivor's Remorse after season 4.  I was so sad to hear about this on Sunday, that show had so much potential.

It's terrible when that happens Timone - when you love a show so much and see it's true genius and then it gets ripped away.  

What's also terrible is Married By Mom and Dad... having a parent choose my partner would be a living hell! I can't believe anyone actually does it from choice.

I wouldn't mind the 45-room chateau from Escape to the Chateau though - without the sewage problem obvs.
