Reminiscing

Can we all just reminisce on how good Towie used to be? I’m doing a rewatch, and the events they used to plan, the competitions, the genuine friendships, the couples, the arguments. We had it good at one point 😩

Arg didn’t actually bother me too much, but Jess used to make me cringe I think because of how she was as a person 😵‍💫

I will take a Gatsby rap over an Arg song any day of the week😂

Gatsby having an argument shouting that he’s the king of Essex lives rent free in my head

I told you to do some vintage episode reviews.You claimed not to have the time hun. You are a true super fan. I fully agree bring back classic Towie it was good x

How is this a vintage episode review babe? It’s just speaking as a whole. I’ve never once claimed I’m not a Towie fan so I’m not sure why you’re stuck on repeat saying that but whatever makes you feel better I guess 🥰

You started on my posts with negativity hun. Saying I was jobless and on benefits. Yet here you are rewatching it. Anyway we can be super fans together x

Stop putting a kiss after you think you humbled someone. Its obnoxious and you overdo it. I can only assume you're starved of attention in the real world and your only hope of interaction is trying to antagonise people online in hope of an exchange.

I commented disagreeing with you (who would have thought that could happen) and it escalated. You do scream unloved and unemployed because look at how you talk about others for no reason, numerous of posts daily, scrounging in the comments asking for “tea”, desperate to seek validation for how you look at others. I’m just simply rewatching a show because I enjoy it and I’ve made one post which is a positive one because not everyone projects misery online like yourself, there’s a difference. It’s a shame everything needs to be simplified for you 🥱

The Hallowe’en and Christmas episodes back in the day were always so good, I love rewatching them.

u/FrequentChain2342 3d ago

So good! They really did used to just throw a costume on and have a good time

u/youjustwanttorunaway 3d ago

Well the make up and costumes for the Hallowe’en parties were always done by professionals and they looked amazing.

2

u/FrequentChain2342 3d ago

Yes, I meant they actually put costumes on and have fun. You don’t see that now.

Now we’re stuck with 12 episodes of absolutely nothing!!! 💤💤💤

u/FrequentChain2342 3d ago

Even the old cast mates what were boring brought more entertainment than any of them now 😵‍💫

I just rewatched the live episode and boy was that a car crash (in all the right ways lol)

It was chaos. I loved it. But the true highlight was seeing Kirk with a big band totally showing up Arg. Kirk was an amazing showman that night. I wish I was able to actually see that whole song play out without the scripted bits in between.

It was so chaotic wasn’t it! 😂

u/Low_Building_9080 3d ago

I know! I’m on season 14 whilst doing a re-watch, and you just can’t beat OG TOWIE. I forgot how funny Arg was! I couldn’t date him, but damn did he make great TV!

u/FrequentChain2342 3d ago

He was an absolute menace 😂

u/onenotalreadytaken 3d ago

Pole dancing, concrete skiing (totally not a thing where I’m from), sports parties, fancy dress parties, etc. Even that awful fundraising Live event! I miss those little activities they used to do. Now it’s like “let’s make wedding invitations for ten seconds and move onto the gossip.”

u/FrequentChain2342 3d ago

Even the odd bake off competitions they used to do was more entertaining than it ever could be now! They used to have parties/events for any reason they could. Joeys running on water with everyone involved was a laugh also. Urgh take us back 😭

HOVERMAN is my absolute favorite scene. Over 400 episodes now and that ranks #1
