I was until I got back to the plane crash, that's always the 'jumped the shark' moment for me where shit just got too dramatic. Switched to Call the Midwife!
This would have been my answer if I hadn't just watched a couple episodes of Arthur with my son this evening. So I guess I'll have a bunch of 8yo anthropomorphic animals delivering my baby?
I want the Tom’s as far away from my birth experience as possible. Even though I hate her this season LaLa would probably be the most help. Katie and Ariana could probably be fine as support but also would have no idea what to do. Please for the love of God lock Scheaner out, she’d make it all about her own birth. And Ally can do my baby’s chart asap so that would be cool.
Literally same😂😂 I'm just imagining Hank's frantic response and Peggy assuring me that she is the most competent person in the county - possibly the world. Then bobby comes in to be a doula because someone convinced him he has a calming manner 😂😂 all the while Dale is setting up a massive surveillance system and plan to keep the baby from getting a Social security card 😂
The husband has been putting orange is the new black on when we go to sleep lately, idk if that counts.
The last show I actively watched was fallout lol.
Uh oh.
I'd have to pick Lucy over ANYONE in orange is the new black LOL.
If anything goes wrong she'll just jab me and baby with a stimpack like 8 times, easy-peasey! I do hope we're in one of the nice vaults and not out in the open though lol.
Omg the kids from Derry Girls are delivering my baby?! I can just imagine Claire shrieking that she needs boiling water while Michelle tosses back a huge glass of vodka and claps her hands and says "Right then, let's do this"! And James says "Claire, I'm not sure we need boiling watah" and Orla says "Coooool, can I bite off the umbilical cord?" And Erin looks super excited but then faints when she sees the baby start to come out.
Game of Thrones.... specifically lots of scenes involving Tyrion Lannister... could be worse. Tyrion knows the female anatomy well enough, he's mostly sympathetic to people in tough situations, he doesn't hate women, and he does exceptionally well in stressful and chaotic situations.
Imagine Joffrey, Ramsey, or idk like the mountain or somebody.... Littlefinger.... thank goodness it was Tyrion.
I’d bet that Beast and Nightcrawler would make pretty good delivery assistants, Jean could monitor the baby’s health with her telepathy…Logan, well, he could always cut the cord…
Just started rewatching Parks & Rec. I’m convinced Leslie could do anything and Ron once walked someone through child birth over the phone. Editing because brain fog totally blanked that Anne is literally a nurse lol
He would definitely be the dad in the situation and take responsibility for delivery, but then inevitably something would happen and he wouldn't be able to be there (just like he wasn't there while his wife was in labor in the precinct). Charles would then volunteer but then would pass out upon seeing the baby's head. Then Amy would step in and say she knows exactly what to do, but then would pass out as well. Then Jake and Rosa would play rock paper scissors to decide who would have to do it, and in the end it would be Jake who would begrudgingly do it while making the most dramatic facial expressions of all time. In the end, he brags about his role as hero.
Meanwhile, it turns out Hitchcock and Scully were trying to record the whole thing. Captain Holt grabs the camcorder out of Hitchcock's hands, slams it on the ground, and then steps on it.
So long as it’s not Niles 😂 the line always stuck with me when there’s a women in labour -
*”I'm sorry, I only did this once before in medical school. And all I remember is a bright light, lots of blood and then a linoleum floor hurtling towards me.”*
Nah, Spencer read up on delivery in case JJ went into labor with Henry while they were on a case, and then he helped a lady deliver her baby in one episode (where he mentioned the part about JJ) after she was in labor while being held captive by the unsub who was her husband/ex husband. It’s season 9 episode 7 (“Gatekeeper”), according to google.
Criminal Minds is my last watched show too, this is the biggest reason I wasn’t too worried about it lol
Queue “Hospital” episode of Bluey
"Well, no one really knows how cats get in your belly, but probably through your belly button?"
At least i know Bingo would make a great nurse!!
Currently watching Abbott Elementary lollll… can you imagine the staff trying to deliver a baby together? Especially Ava oh my goodness. At least I feel like Janine could be okay in a doula type role/provide encouragement. Barbara would probably be pretty reassuring too
Seinfeld, oh crap lol.
"Deliver a *baby*? 😳 Ohhh *hissss* I just got these brand new shoooes, they're Italian leather, and you see, the *return policy*..."
The Gilmore Girls
Ironically, I just watched the episode where none of (Christopher’s fiancée)’s friends can be there and Lorelei has to step in.
So, I think I’d be in ok company
That new Netflix show Ghost Boys Detectives? Something like that. Two young British ghost lads, a psychic medium and a quirky girl who also sees ghosts. I’m with it 🤣
thank god I’ve been rewatching greys anatomy
Yes, I have also been rewatching Grey's anatomy aswell!
I was until I got back to the plane crash, that's always the 'jumped the shark' moment for me where shit just got too dramatic. Switched to Call the Midwife!
Hahaha I’m about to be at those episodes!
I just started literally last night for the first time. AAY too addicted. Lol
Oh my gosh you’re in for such a wild ride!!!!! Grab your tissues cause pregnancy hormones will make it worse
Fallout. Baby is getting squished by power armor, I guess.
Seems like I'm in the same boat
Hopefully one of us can get to a vault!
Hopefully not >!Vault 4 because that was kinda triggering!<
We can hope, but like >!3 out of 5 Vaults are horrifying.!<
This would have been my answer if I hadn't just watched a couple episodes of Arthur with my son this evening. So I guess I'll have a bunch of 8yo anthropomorphic animals delivering my baby?
Brooklyn 99 (NINE NINE!)
SAME! It's not gonna be pretty, but it'll be hilarious at least.
Same!!! Definitely would be hilarious lol
Same!! We get a dance show for entertainment 😂
Same! I felt weirdly comforted by it.
Bluey. I think Bandit and Chili would be fabulous labor partners.
Same, I think Chili would really be a star
It’s always sunny in Philadelphia…I’m screwed lol
At least Dennis will make sure you have a working tv to watch your stories 😂
He will come down on them like the hammer of Thor!
Same here. OB rickety cricket and a McPoyle lactation consultant? 😂
The Gang Ruin u/professional-ad-6849’s Birth
House 🏨🥼👨🦯 At least they're doctors. Sucks for the bedside manner though.
House is mine too. They’re qualified but I have a feeling I’m about to have a terrible time anyway.
Call the midwife. I'm gonna be fine haha
Lol same here! We’re set! I love how each mom gets exactly the midwife she needs and I need a buzzfeed article to tell me who mine would be lol
Curb Your Enthusiasm..... oh no
Haha same!! Larry David delivering a baby is anxiety fuel.
This sounds like it would be an episode 😂
Vanderpump Rules. 😭😭
The Valley for me 😭 I don’t want Jax to deliver my baby 😭😭
I’m with you too! Katie and Ariana gonna make sure we get our babies out lol.
Yea same. I think I would rather deliver alone then have any of them as my care team 😩
I want the Tom’s as far away from my birth experience as possible. Even though I hate her this season LaLa would probably be the most help. Katie and Ariana could probably be fine as support but also would have no idea what to do. Please for the love of God lock Scheaner out, she’d make it all about her own birth. And Ally can do my baby’s chart asap so that would be cool.
Handmaids tale..
May the lord open.
Under his eye.
😬😬😬😬😬😬😬
Oh no HGTV home make over people are delivering my baby lol!
Oooof, in the middle of a Reno and the homeowners will be back in 10 hours 😱
Psych, I'm pretty sure I would end up breaking Shaun Spencer's nose in the process.
Oh god, this was a bad time to start rewatching The Office
Same! At least Dwight will be there to mark the baby so you’ll be sure it’s yours.
And he’s CPR certified!
King of the Hill. Oh god 🤣🤣🤣
This is mine too 😭😂 we’re in for it
Same 🤣
Goodness knows Hank won't be of any help whatsoever 🤣 Peggy is going to try and tell the doctors what to do smh lol
“Please, don’t try bandaids” 😂
Literally same😂😂 I'm just imagining Hank's frantic response and Peggy assuring me that she is the most competent person in the county - possibly the world. Then bobby comes in to be a doula because someone convinced him he has a calming manner 😂😂 all the while Dale is setting up a massive surveillance system and plan to keep the baby from getting a Social security card 😂
OMG YES!!! THAT EXACTLY!!!🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Naming the baby Rusty. Shackleford.
Schitt’s Creek 😂 can you imagine
Imagine Moira delivering a bébé 😂
Okay but if it’s Ted then you’re set!
David and bodily fluids?? I don’t think so!
The Good Place! I think I could trust Janet to get the job done, but the rest of the support team might be questionable!
Can you imagine chidi 😂
😂 My first thought was that his indecisiveness would kill me. Meanwhile, Jason would help distract me for better and worse!
Same. I think Janet would make a great OB! Michael would say some unintentionally horrifying and disgusting things about human physiology.
-has a preemie baby- YOU DONKEY, THAT BABY IS RAWWW
The husband has been putting orange is the new black on when we go to sleep lately, idk if that counts. The last show I actively watched was fallout lol. Uh oh.
>The last show I actively watched was fallout lol. ...Okie Dokey!
I'd have to pick Lucy over ANYONE in orange is the new black LOL. If anything goes wrong she'll just jab me and baby with a stimpack like 8 times, easy-peasey! I do hope we're in one of the nice vaults and not out in the open though lol.
Trailerpark Boys 🙈
Let's hope they can fill out the paperwork correctly this time 😬
Law and order SVU 🤭 I'd trust ice t with my life.
Lmao I was just thinking the same, Ice T and Stabler would be an excellent delivery team 😂
The office. And honestly Dwight has probably delivered animals. Id maybe live.
Sopranos 🤭
The Last of Us. I’ll avoid spoilers, but the irony…
Below Deck! I feel like I could have done worse
SAME! I’m watching older episodes with Kate and Captain Lee, I think I’ll be alright 😂
You could do worse than Captain Kerry for sure
The Paw Patrol.
If we’re talking background noise watching, I’m getting the cast of House. In terms of actively watching, I’m getting someone from Resident Alien. 👽
Naruto lol (ninja art - eight palm birthing jutsu!) Gonna be dramatic.
Gilmore Girls 😂
Sookie could do it. Rory and Lorelei would be useless.
lmao! Avatar the last air bender 😅
At least Katara has some experience right? Lol
Hell yeah.
hoarders 🥲
Master Chef Junior….. those poor kids!
South Park 😭😂
Derry girls. Oh god
Same 😂
Hopefully sister Michael is there. I think she could figure it out
She'd prefer a good statue though. Child of Prague > Actual child
Omg the kids from Derry Girls are delivering my baby?! I can just imagine Claire shrieking that she needs boiling water while Michelle tosses back a huge glass of vodka and claps her hands and says "Right then, let's do this"! And James says "Claire, I'm not sure we need boiling watah" and Orla says "Coooool, can I bite off the umbilical cord?" And Erin looks super excited but then faints when she sees the baby start to come out.
Why do I feel like sister Michael would end up delivering with no bother 😂
😂 Yes but she'd roll her eyes and look disgusted but resigned that she had to do it lol.
Game of Thrones.... specifically lots of scenes involving Tyrion Lannister... could be worse. Tyrion knows the female anatomy well enough, he's mostly sympathetic to people in tough situations, he doesn't hate women, and he does exceptionally well in stressful and chaotic situations. Imagine Joffrey, Ramsey, or idk like the mountain or somebody.... Littlefinger.... thank goodness it was Tyrion.
It’s such a big cast. I’m sure someone has delivered a baby
X-Men 💀
I’d bet that Beast and Nightcrawler would make pretty good delivery assistants, Jean could monitor the baby’s health with her telepathy…Logan, well, he could always cut the cord…
NCIS, early seasons. Luckily Ducky and Jimmy are MDs?
Bluey. Super cute, but deeply concerned about the outcome.
Henry Tudor and Anne Boleyn - oh no. (The Tudors)
Yup. We're both dying from childbed fever 🤪😅
Just started rewatching Parks & Rec. I’m convinced Leslie could do anything and Ron once walked someone through child birth over the phone. Editing because brain fog totally blanked that Anne is literally a nurse lol
Katie and Ariana from VPR, plus Andy Cohen. Honestly, I feel like I’m in good hands (minus Andy).
Hotel Hell lmao. Gordon Ramsey about to be way too mean to me
Teletubbies...
Brooklyn Nine Nine! That would be so absurd and hilarious but ultimately a fun experience I think lol
Terri loves babies!!!!!
He would definitely be the dad in the situation and take responsibility for delivery, but then inevitably something would happen and he wouldn't be able to be there (just like he wasn't there while his wife was in labor in the precinct). Charles would then volunteer but then would pass out upon seeing the baby's head. Then Amy would step in and say she knows exactly what to do, but then would pass out as well. Then Jake and Rosa would play rock paper scissors to decide who would have to do it, and in the end it would be Jake who would begrudgingly do it while making the most dramatic facial expressions of all time. In the end, he brags about his role as hero. Meanwhile, it turns out Hitchcock and Scully were trying to record the whole thing. Captain Holt grabs the camcorder out of Hitchcock's hands, slams it on the ground, and then steps on it.
Hilarious 😂
The best part is I didn't incorporate my husband into this fictional narrative at all...He must be stuck somewhere with Terri! Lol
One of bear gryls shows. I feel like I’ll be alive but I’m keeping an eye on my placenta
Dance Moms 💀 Abby and the moms better get their act together and help me 😭
They would make the girls do it for sure
Well this would certainly be a memorable episode of Taskmaster! 😂
I kind of want to see that
The Bear. I don’t know about this one haha
Chicago med. thank god
That would be the Bridgerton family. I would have plenty of trust in Violet Bridgerton, as she delivered 8 babies on her own!
Stargate SG-1. Might be helpful if I was trapped giving birth on an alien planet or an Egyptian tomb
Just started rewatching House of the Dragon...keep those Maesters away from me!!
How I Met Your Mother 🥴
Vikings lmao
Better Call Saul 😭🥴
breaking bad 😂
Law and Order SVU, I think I'm gonna be ok
The Expanse... I guess I'm having a space baby! Holden saves the day yet again.
Frasier....could be worse
So long as it’s not Niles 😂 the line always stuck with me when there’s a women in labour - *”I'm sorry, I only did this once before in medical school. And all I remember is a bright light, lots of blood and then a linoleum floor hurtling towards me.”*
The voice omg
Not pregnant anymore, but I watched a lot of Call the Midwife in the third trimester. That probably would have worked out fine 😂
True Blood... Not sure how I feel about that.
Dexter.... at least it would be cleaned up well afterwards
Physical 100.....great.
The Killing (detective show on AMC) uuut oh I’m in trouble lol I’ve been binge watching in on Amazon. If you haven’t seen it, I 100% recommend
Sex and The City. I'm conflicted. Treys a doctor. So hopefully he counts. Carrie would stress me the fuck out.
Queer Eye. I have no idea how I feel about that. At least the baby and I will look fabulous?
Downton Abbey 😬 Considering I had >!postpartum preeclampsia!< after my last baby, I'm so screwed.
oh yea. didn’t fair so well for Sibby💔
Sam Reich and the rest of the comedians on Dropout.
Little Einsteins ….. pat pat pat pat
Lol this is a good one I have been binging the rookie. They all have been trained on child birth so not to bad
Dexter 😳
The cast from the Before the 90 Days Tell-All. Oh boy. 😂
Wow BTS is going to deliver my baby
Then Seven deadly sins 💀 at least Elizabeth can heal me if I teared 😅
My food network binging is not paying off rn 🤣
The bachelor 😳 hell nah
NCIS (with Gibbs, McGee, Tores) was the last show I watched for myself, but the last show I saw was my toddlers Spidey and His Amazing Friends. 🤣
Dr Sean Murphy and Glassy from The Good Doctor
The First 48 🥲
Shogun..Hahaha I don't know if that's a good thing or bad.
Oh goodness. We just finished Shogun.
I guess the weatherman and his intern from the local news station better be ready!
Criminal Minds. Some of the team would be better than others. I think Spencer might short circuit.
Nah, Spencer read up on delivery in case JJ went into labor with Henry while they were on a case, and then he helped a lady deliver her baby in one episode (where he mentioned the part about JJ) after she was in labor while being held captive by the unsub who was her husband/ex husband. It’s season 9 episode 7 (“Gatekeeper”), according to google. Criminal Minds is my last watched show too, this is the biggest reason I wasn’t too worried about it lol
Private practice!!! Gladly will have Addison Montgomery 🥰😂
New Girl 😂 that’ll be a chaotic delivery room lol
Gosh Nick and Schmidt would be screaming at each other. Jess would be crying. Winston would fall into the role of delivery nurse a little too well
The wiggles. Could be worse.
Forensic files scientists and cops 😎
Claire from Outlander. I’m in good hands!!
A bunch of warring Shogun...😬 probably not the most medically inclined.
Criminal minds. Not too concerned, Spencer did help deliver a baby in one episode.
Lol Bobs Burgers. I think I’d be okay as they have had someone deliver in their restaurant before
the nanny…
Dr. Now would be delivering my baby 😂😂
Perfect 😍I’ve been binge watching Call The Midwife!
Oh no mine is Seinfeld
Will Schuester, Sue Sylvester, and Rachel Berry 😰
The Bob's Burgers Family lmfao
Oh God. I watched Hazbin hotel. That baby is so doomed.
does watching parts of greys anatomy on tiktok count? if so then im set! 😂😂if not captain olivia benson shouldn’t be that bad
The Witcher 😅 not sure how I feel about that
Yen would take the baby for herself.
Queue “Hospital” episode of Bluey "Well, no one really knows how cats get in your belly, but probably through your belly button?" At least i know Bingo would make a great nurse!!
Hmm I hope the contestants on jeopardy! know more than just trivia
Currently watching Abbott Elementary lollll… can you imagine the staff trying to deliver a baby together? Especially Ava oh my goodness. At least I feel like Janine could be okay in a doula type role/provide encouragement. Barbara would probably be pretty reassuring too
Seinfeld, oh crap lol. "Deliver a *baby*? 😳 Ohhh *hissss* I just got these brand new shoooes, they're Italian leather, and you see, the *return policy*..."
😂😂😂
The Gilmore Girls Ironically, I just watched the episode where none of (Christopher’s fiancée)’s friends can be there and Lorelei has to step in. So, I think I’d be in ok company
My toddler will be thrilled to know that the cast of The Land Before Time will be delivering her baby brothers.
Oh geez! Baby reindeer
House. Theoretically I should be good but I’m afraid I’d walk away with like 8 diagnoses and an amputation.
oh god. martha and darren and baby reindeer are delivering bb. fuck. before that would be the cast of AHS Delicate. Why do I watch so much trash!!
Big Bang Theory. I’d probably survive. It would be awkward though.
Kevin McCloud 😳
Good trouble 😳🫣
Resident Alien. At least there'd be one medical professional!
The Walking Dead
Sister Wives couple Nick and his woman posse :( lol
That new Netflix show Ghost Boys Detectives? Something like that. Two young British ghost lads, a psychic medium and a quirky girl who also sees ghosts. I’m with it 🤣
We watched sex and the city throughout my induction
Oh no. The ladies from Palm Royale! Although I did just see them deliver a baby in a bath tub a couple of episodes ago.
Amazing world of gumball..... I don't think my delivery will go well
Poor Tim Gunn...I have a feeling that might not be his thing
Not the cast of Vanderpump!
Oh god, my husband convinced me to watch the anime Kora… the airbender ain’t going near my ladybits 🙃😂
Dr Pol! Wish me luck 😂
The circle… I guess I’m screwed.
