I really liked Toadie in all his family set ups and was gutted when the show returned with him divorced from Mel, but he and Terese make a good unit too - I just wish everyone would remember that Terese isn't the innocent victim either. I'd like Beth or Ned to come and set a few things straight about Terese's affair with Brad. In a way that was worse, at least Toadie and Brad went back to Mel and Lauren, women they would have still been with if it wasn't for ridiculous circumstances with other people's actions upsetting their relationships. This whole Toadie/Mel/Terese thing is so exhausting - but I feel so sorry for all of them because bereavement is the root cause of all their problems - Toad losing wives Dee and Sonya, Mel's divorce from Joe Mangel because he was still is love with his first wife Kerry, Lauren thinking her daughter with Brad had died, Terese losing Josh and Doug. When we've lived through 40 years of heartbreak with these characters, it is so sad to see them still suffering so much.
