Loveday Writing

Like last week’s episode, ‘R-O–Road T-R–Trip’ didn’t focus on exploring another layer of the DiMeo family and their lives with a special needs family member. Instead this episode focused on the DiMeo family dynamic.

Considering how much planning would be involved in every aspect of their lives due to JJ’s disability, it was nice to see a spontaneous side to the family, especially with Maya. It didn’t surprise me that Ray would be against it, due to his uptight nature. I personally felt that the Dylan and Zoltar subplot with the predictions coming true was weak and cheesy, as well as Jimmy and JJ’s idea to sell their stuff. Not to mention neither of these subplots added anything to the episode.
