Teen Mom 2 returned for a fifth season last night after a pro-longed filming hiatus. In that time, Jenelle Evans managed to get married, pregnant, and arrested for a felony. » 1/23/14 10:00am 1/23/14 10:00am

Troubled Teen Mom 2 star Jenelle Evans has confirmed that she's pregnant again, this time with her boyfriend Nathan Griffith—the guy she told cops she was "trying to have sex" with in her Toyota when they were pulled over for erratic driving in September. (Griffith was charged with a DUI and puked in the back of the… » 12/12/13 7:45pm 12/12/13 7:45pm

Teen Mom 2 ended on a high note last night only in that it featured troubled star Jenelle Evans so completely doped up that she nods off in her final scene. The episode chronicled the messy aftermath of her mother Barbara's off-camera—and apparently botched—attempt at an intervention, where she entered Jenelle's home… » 4/30/13 12:40pm 4/30/13 12:40pm

Jenelle Evans, troubled star of Teen Mom 2, is seemingly working her way up to having enough mugshots to make her own novelty deck of cards. This time around she was arrested for being in possession of a large amount of heroin after the cops were called to her home for an alleged domestic dispute with her husband… » 4/23/13 7:15pm 4/23/13 7:15pm

OK, so we know that these people have made some mistakes in the past, and yes, they're still young—kids, really—but even considering these circumstances, their stupidity seems extraordinary. And this was particularly evident on last night's reunion of Teen Mom 2's third season, filmed about a year ago, which was… » 2/12/13 7:10pm 2/12/13 7:10pm

Here's what's seemingly the life trajectory of a typical person who appears on Teen Mom 2: Let some loser cum inside you, take your GED practice test 84 times, get feathers in your hair. Seriously. When I was little, there was this super scuzzy awesome fair that came to my town every summer that had unsafe rides built… » 12/27/12 4:40pm 12/27/12 4:40pm

Jenelle's follies and her mother Barb's reaction to them are the best thing about the entire Teen Mom franchise. Sure, her terrible life choices have very real consequences for her and probably her son and that's sad and all, but it's impossible to watch and listen to the reasoning that goes into said choices and not… » 11/27/12 5:20pm 11/27/12 5:20pm

Jenelle is strung out on weed again and violated the terms of her probation. She faces 45 days in jail and could possibly lose her financial aid for college. We knew this would happen. Not because she's been so open about how much she loves marijuana on national television, but because we read about all of this when… » 11/20/12 12:40pm 11/20/12 12:40pm

Everybody knows that Jenelle's mom is the best thing about the entire Teen Mom franchise. She's the unintended comedic relief on a series that's otherwise totally depressing, as it's predicated on young women seeking validation through sex and then exacerbating their self-inflicted misery. Barb somehow manages to… » 11/13/12 10:30am 11/13/12 10:30am

MTV has released the extended trailer for the third season of Teen Mom 2, which was filmed over a year ago. The problem with documenting these young women's lives for a reality show is that they're now celebrities, so their lives are actually documented in real time through tabloid stories, paparazzi shots, arrest… » 10/26/12 12:40pm 10/26/12 12:40pm

As is the case with many a dad/manager, I could have told you something was going on with former youth pastor and Baptist minister Joe Simpson. All those icky comments about daughter Jessica's breasts? That DUI he got in Sherman Oaks in August? His divorce from Tina, his wife of 34 years, late last month? Supposedly,… » 10/24/12 9:00am 10/24/12 9:00am

Last night, on the Teen Mom 2 reunion special, Dr. Drew delved deeper in the problems that eventually broke up the marriage of Leah and Corey. During the season, we learned that Leah had cheated on Corey the week before their wedding because Corey was too tired to have sex with her. In this sit-down, her lack of … » 2/29/12 4:00pm 2/29/12 4:00pm

Last night's season finale of Teen Mom 2 just drove home how depressing these girls' stories are. Not because they involve poverty or drug addiction or excessive leopard print, but because, over the course of the two seasons of the show, it's become increasingly more obvious that beneath all the bad relationships—and… » 2/15/12 4:40pm 2/15/12 4:40pm

Now that I have a kid, I make it a point to not judge other parents, because it's really just the hardest job in the world. So, purely in my desire to understand the situation, I'd like to know where Leah finds the time to do all these things—like get drunk and have an affair—when she has infant twins at home, one of… » 2/08/12 2:15pm 2/08/12 2:15pm

I don't know if I've ever seen someone freak out at the idea of not being able to smoke weed as much as Jenelle did on last night's Teen Mom 2. After being put on probation stemming from an arrest for possession of drug paraphernalia, Jenelle's lawyer warned her not to do any drugs, drink any booze or "get in… » 2/01/12 11:20am 2/01/12 11:20am

After watching how Leah bathes her twin daughters on last night's episode of Teen Mom 2, it's apparent that the cast of the MTV hit reality show is not pulling in the big bucks that the media purports. Leah's life is essentially a country song. She and her husband Cory live in a rundown, one-bedroom trailer so now… » 1/25/12 10:25am 1/25/12 10:25am

Can you imagine working on Teen Mom 2 and having to write: "I'm not supposed to be smoking weed because I have court in a few weeks" for a 19-year-old's voice over about her own life? It must be so awkward handing the script to her, but probably even weirder for her to be like, "Yeah, that sounds about right." On… » 1/18/12 11:50am 1/18/12 11:50am

Somehow, hearing Barbara Evans scream at her troubled teenage daughter in a New England accent brings a lot of levity to an otherwise dark show. Whether she's pissed at Jenelle for going to Planet Fun again with "Keifah," pointing out the "hickeys all ovah ya friggin' neck," questioning the whereabouts of her "credit… » 1/11/12 3:20pm 1/11/12 3:20pm
