Let us make one thing clear: this is not a DadTok friendly article. I booed them every single time they came onto my screen, which was far too often. Also, I will not be addressing the current domestic violence allegations and videos against Taylor Frankie Paul. I am focusing on season 4 and this did not occur during that time period.

Continuing on about DadTok, they had way too much airtime. I am not watching this show for men. Also, they suck. I appreciate the fact that when they did the lower-thirds, they would label their role in relation to their wives.

But really, I do not feel like they add much to the show and people do not want to see these toxic men on their screens for the majority of the first episode. Jessi Ngatikaura’s husband, Jordan, calls himself the “leader” of DadTok, but he is riding his more successful wife’s coattails.

My favorite member this season has to be Chase or Connor. Chase McWhorter is Miranda Hope’s ex-husband. The man is funny and he called Jordan out on his hypocrisy, so a win in my book.

Connor is Whitney Leavitt’s husband. If this is a name you recognize, it is because she was one of two Mormon wives on Dancing with the Stars last season and is currently in “Chicago” on Broadway. The woman was doing a lot this season, and Connor was supportive.

When Whitney was overwhelmed, Connor immediately reassured her and told her not to worry about the family because he is taking care of it. And he learned close-up magic to give himself purpose after leaving his job to support Whitney.

Now my least favorite men included Dakota, Taylor Frankie Paul’s baby daddy, because he is a red flag and needs to leave the show and Jordan because he thinks he is better than the women for some reason.

I will give a dishonorable mention to Zac, Jen Affleck’s husband, because he spent the season discovering what it means to be a stay-at-home parent and brought up how he does not like seeing his wife dance with another man — his wife was also on “Dancing with the Stars” — and then ask his wife if she wants a divorce. I am not a fan but the other two just made me more mad.

I have spent more time on the men than they deserved, but I needed to rant about how much I dislike them. But enough about the men.

Taylor needs to stop going back to Dakota. He is not good for her and she knows this. I respect that she is trying to break a toxic cycle, but I need him off my screen. This season, her mom, Liann, gets a lot of screen time and I do not like her mother.

Liann is also toxic. I need her to stop defending Dakota because he and Taylor are not good for each other and I think mom should always be on your side when it comes to toxic exes.

Also, what mom says she wishes she gave her daughter up for adoption so the daughter would have a better life? I understand the sentiment, but I do not interpret that in a sweet manner. If my mother ever said that — and I do not think she would — I would be devastated. I do appreciate Taylor saying that she is had a great life, but I think those thoughts are inside thoughts and should stay there.

She and Taylor fight so much because Liann does not seem to be supportive of her and I did not want to see her on my screen. No one else is parents are on the show, why is she?

Miranda is so funny. She seems very down to Earth and I vibe with her. This is my petition for her to be on my screen more please and thank you. She is honest with her friends. When one of her friends was talking with Dakota, she tells her straight to her face that Dakota is manipulating her and does not really care for her. I love Miranda and the calm, level-headness she brings to the group.

Whitney was probably my favorite of the season. She is thriving and I am here for it. She and Connor are the most normal, non-toxic couple on the show. They have struggled and it made me happy to see them in a much better position within the group and with each other.

I think my favorite producer moment was when Demi Engemann stopped filming in the middle of the first few episodes and did not do an interview so they would just cut to an empty couch with cricket noises. I laughed every time it happened.

This show is all kinds of messy. These are adults who act like children sometimes. There are fun moments where you can see the genuine friendships among these women like when Mikayla Matthews and Whitney finally made up from drama from season 1 and Whitney supported her while dealing with her skin conditions.

I think this show has a lot of good moments, and it does show what real life is — to a degree. These women are working wives, moms, friends and influencers. Taylor shows how hard it is to break a toxic cycle especially when people invite your ex around. Layla Taylor is dealing with body issues, Mikayla is working on getting her health under control, and Jessi is dealing with a failing relationship.

These are real things that other people deal with and everyone wants to see themselves in someone else. And even if MomTok takes things too far sometimes, it is real. It is messy but not in the way that reality TV often feels like.

We, as an audience, do not know these people, but we see ourselves in them. They do not shy away from their struggles or try to sugarcoat it.

The show is not perfect, but they do not try to be. They are messy and toxic, but so are most people.

Even though this season had way too much DadTok on my screen, I enjoyed it. While some people make me madder than others, I kept watching because I wanted to see MomTok survive this. I can only hope that DadTok does not survive this.
