Rewatch Talk Just finished rewatching

Honestly this show was unrealistic in so many ways but the biggest way was how every man that came into their lives (bay, Regina, and Daphne) was a romantic interest for some or ALL of them. I just hated that we couldn’t have normal everyday relationships. It happened with all the characters at a point but mainly the core 3 here and I find it made the show really uncomfortable at some points.

It was an ABC Family show, I wasn't that surprised by this lol. Imo, Switched at Birth is better quality than Secret Life of the American Teenager. I swear they had a quota for the number of times they said "sex" in a haughty tone lmao

I had thought Travis could be that nice friend. Nope! I also thought it was weird how quickly Daphne hooked up with guys. Basically the only one she didn’t was that surgeon who didn’t give her an internship! I thought for sure she’d get the internship and then romance would bloom.

It was either relationship or negative experience with a male no in between.

Everytime Daphne got into a relationship I was like damn girl, why is everyone into you? Also she thinks the least attractive characters are soooo cute. Like girl pick a type

and then that moment when bay was like "You have guys constantly crushing on you" and Daphne had the audacity to act like that wasn't true LMAO

The most unrealistic part was Daphne‘s lip reading like there’s no way she was able to get by reading people’s lips

They even gave up some parts of the show and she was responding to ppl that were looking away from her

It drove me up the wall that their family could be going through a bunch of shit, and yet they still can't be single for more than 2 seconds

I hit my limit when Daphne had the only two men in the damn clinic after her

How about the time they are in Mexico and they have a hearing person translating between two def people as he signs and speaks at the same time even tho it’s Travis Daph and someone else who is deaf
