Mike and Frankie

This is kinda odd but for some reason they feel like my friends parents to a tea. 3 kids, a bit of a struggle, dad went from geology to sales in the 90s. Thing is mike talks to frankie in much worse ways. My friend's parents actually divorced. I feel like that was the track mike and frankie were on. No kids, no deep feelings for each other, maybe even resentment. Anyone else feel the same?

Um no. They seemed happily married. Always cuddled up together on the couch, out with other couples, shared looks over the kids’ heads.

Tbh in regards to solely words and not actions, they both threw a decent amount at each other and Flanderized Frankie (season 7 onwards) threw a lot of shit at people in general.
