Run's House ~ New Season 7.16.08

[ladylike]

Has anyone else noticed how many product endorsements are in this show?
Was this always the case? Maybe I'm just now starting to notice.

Hearing about the Rush pre-pay debit card, Angela/Vanessa's "Pastry" shoes, Justine's "Brown Sugar" diamonds and children's book, I'm starting to feel like I'm being solicited. I still enjoy the show, but...

I felt the same way, but then after careful thinking I realized that the Simmons family are just business-minded people. They are also helping their children to position themselves in the business world.

Most of the stuff I had heard of even before the show started airing. And since we are in on their day-to-day lives, we have to be a part of the business side of things, which does make it seem like one long PhatFarmBabyPhatBrownSugarPastryRunAthleticsRushCa rd advertisement.

I'm not phased because while I love the family and the show, I'm not rushing out to buy any of that stuff anyway.

I have to admit that although it was funny to see Russy "hiding" everybody's things, the mental health professional in me wondered if they are getting grief counseling for the children. It also appeared as if Justine is having difficulty as well, hince her apprehension in letting Jo Jo baby sit. I will continue to pray for their strength.

I like it when Justine asserts herself.
In Rev. Run's effort to be super-hubby/dad, it sometimes appears (to me) that he runs a little roughshod over her feelings.

What I really like about this family is that you see that they really love each other and they're not hesitant nor afraid to express it.
