Diane is a very caring and loving mother despite her quirks and excessive talking. I love how she gets the entire family involved in all activities. I think all families nowadays could use some more quality time together!
I've only just started watching this episode so I'm not sure what ads are shown yet BUT the birth control ads are worrying on the other episodes I've watched of this binge worthy program. Much better than the UK version.
It's only a week! I know many people that would love a week off, away from their own kids and family lol. Its 1 week! Not everyone is the Brady Bunch, or Partridge Family lol. Come on!
@En Joy no way.. what did they say about it? I thought they maybe edited some of it to their own narrative but Idk, some of these moments feel very real.
Swaps like these warm my heart because both women and their families are incredible and to see them each bond with their new families was so special ❤️
OMG, I remember this one. The moment when Brittney talked to Diane the night before she left and said she enjoyed their week together made me cry when I first watched this all those years ago. And I teared up seeing it again :'D
" SHE lets " !!! sorry i feel i have to say sommat to that !!! why would you say " She Lets" !! ? ok she keeps a nice house for the family but it is the husbands house too !! He works i've no doubt hard he has a say in THEIR home . a more correct thing to say would be !Its a shame he has to smoke in the home where his wife keeps it smelling nice " !! that would be better to say !!
I'd say let too , as my husband isn't allowed to smoke in our home , it's not healthy on the rest of us . This was a good few years back though and attitudes towards passive smoking was different.
I hate when people focus too much on skin color. Who cares? We're not different species just for having different color skin. We're one species ... "human"
1993 it’s funny you’re commenting on this post when you’re the same person who commented on a different video saying “black people love reminding others they’re black.”
This episode was so good. It brought me to happy and joyous tears. I loved loved loved Diane and Veronica grewn on me at the end. Diane and Veronica energies combined would truly make a super mom. I wonder how they are doing now....
Veronica’s kids getting emotional when Diane was leaving made me emotional. Such good kids, I hope their mom thinks of them more instead of herself. It was heartbreaking hearing her say she wasn’t gonna miss her family & her family wouldn’t miss her. That’s never how I wanna be. Veronica is a good mom, she just needs to be more involved. You can tell Diane’s family taught her a lot
Dianne is the best mum you could ever ask for 🥺❤️❤️😂 I love Veronicas tidiness and the husbands on both sides are amazing and heart warming all the kids are lovely too ☺️❤️❤️
Me too I'm pretty sure there was another show very similar to this one..they sometimes change dads or grandparents...I cant remember the name off hand though...👩💻
Diane is an amazing person both families are so touching and more welcoming than expected... I hope Veronica looks deep into this experience and warms up a little more and is proud of how her family treated Diane even though she doesn't show love like she should...the BEST EPISODE BY FAR💓💓💓💓💓
In the beginning i thought Diane and Family focused too much on race! In my community (AA) we don't tend to care/focus too much on race so it was uncomfortable HOWEVER I absolutely loved both mothers and family! They each are a perfect type to what the other family needs! They both mothers/spouses/kids, they all touched my heart! I hope they were able to forge a friendship! What a GREAT episode :)
Nah, Race will always play apart. The issue is you all play colorblind to what’s wrong the issue especially for black people. There is a system in place to keep black people below. To say we talk too much about race means you aren’t doing enough.
Gosh, I just love Diane! She would be a blessing in any family she walked into. What an amazing person, soul, attitude, and huge personality. I would love to have a person like her in my life! So uplifting, positive, and kind! I just loved her!!!
I love the little thibodeaux boy... So funny ♥️both families are lovely. think she should not be jealous. Her family loves her so much, she should just allow a little more fun. Sad she's so mad at the end about spending the money.
Veronica ❤️ I admire her character. Self-love and assertiveness while humble and open to learning from others. Wot a lady. Hope she did make some adjustments and encourage having more fun
@@bhandlon I see that it might be Massachusetts, with Logan being the nearest airport, but they could also be in Rhode Island. That would explain the lack of exposure to Black people, and the Dad kinda has that "Long Island" Italian look, rather than the "Boston North End" Italian look. You know? like Vinnie "The Pazmanian Devil" Pazienza.
The white family: I was really shocked when she came in, I didn't know she was gonna be black The white mom: are you shocked I'm white? The black family: no
And white people say black people are the one's that makes everything about race!! Yeah right, we bring up race because America makes everything about race!! 🙄
That's the world. Don't worry, families are so integrated now days, it won't be long until we spread unity to every corner and everyone just... Gets it. I'm so tired of the bi focals on the amounts of melanin in the skin. I think every school needs a humanity course. Bring all kinds of people in and expose them to the world in the classroom! Okay, there I go with one of my ideas, sorry.
I love love love Diane..she reminds me of my family. Diane, if you ever read this, know you are a gift from God. The world loves you and your family. Veronica, you too, are great in your own way. We all go through life which forms us. We just can't lose sight of what matters. Great episode!
good friends rock! Me too!! I know a lot of ppl watch for conflict but I'd rather see ones like these where both families and their moms were so amazing and you could see there was a real bond ❤️
For those asking why Richard (white dad) called the spaghetti sauce "gravy" He is Italian and they call it "Sunday Gravy" and the reason is because after going to church on Sundays there is usually a big family dinner, with a big ol pot of spaghetti as the main course.
@@dreamscapedamsel8783 honestly though ;-; the good ol days of sitting in front of the tv watching whatever was on and changing the channel when an ad came. And if all the channels u watch had an ad playing then you'd just sit through it all lol
I love people. I just want to say that. This quarantine has made me miss simple and small interactions so much. I hope everyone is doing well and staying safe. 6 ft away hugs from me and hoping your family is healthy and happy. -Ben
Meeeee toooo, I went to get some blood tests last weeks and came out in tears because I had a lovely long conversation with the nurse. I miss talking with ppl
My favorite episode hands down! I adore both families, but Diane is the sweetest woman and so inspiring. I love both of the husbands as well! Alvin and Richard were both so welcoming and kind! Good people do exist.
“The only place my Mom takes me is the dentist” omg I adore that little boy so much. He’s very funny 😂❤️ Adored both of these families. They’re wonderful families. Veronica, once she came out of her shell, was so vivacious and she clearly has a good heart. And she got that boy in LINE when he disrespected his father 👏 But Diane, she’s very special. And is the type of person I would absolutely be friends with. Her heart is golden and warm, her soul is beautiful and kind, her manner genuine, open and joyful. She’s truly a wonderful person.
I know the obsenities bring in more viewers and higher the ratings , i'm pretty sure i never heard one swear word but oh how i really enjoyed this episode so enjoyable cos it was so nice . i think this lady having that health scare she valued life and the Thibodeaux family were a thoroughly nice family the way she spoke to the young boy showing him to appreciate things more , you know you don't need all the screaming and shouting to enjoy a show this was a change to the norm
I love the personalities of both families. The sacrifices Veronica and her husband make for her kids show here and sometimes people forget to have fun and enjoy life especially when you dont want your kids to grow up in the same environment that you did. I get that. A lot of families are like that. There are also families like Dianne's that enjoy being fun all of the time. These families show me it's important to have a healthy balance of both. If I overindulge in one or the other, I'll be hurt in the long run.
Why is it that every episode of this show These people act like the black families are alien? Like I know that it’s the early 2000s but damn they act like they have never seen a black person.
ikr the white families mean well but they are so over eager to please, like they are worried their guest doesnt like them. either they dont have many black friends or this is the first black person in their house
The father in the white family passed away 5 years ago. The mom Diane lost a ton of weight and looks amazing. The daughter in the white family is married and has a daughter. Not sure about the rest.
@@abc123gcb Damn, you should have sold that idea to them back in 2021! Everyone was getting hooked on this shiz on RUclips through the lockdowns. Genius. 😎 (I have no excuse for watching this video right now in 2024, I know.)😁
Just looked the Famigiettis up on Facebook. Diane lost a ton of weight since then! She's in her 60s as I write this (January 2022). I didn't think she was the same Diane until I saw she was friends with Marc and Justin going through their pages and was like, "Yep that's her!".
Meanwhile across town, she's living paycheck to paycheck...on every penny 🤔. An overabundance of talking will always lead to offending someone. She needs to embrace silence, it usually leads to careful thought.
To those in the comments solely applauding Dianne's family, although we love how fun and sweet she is, she and her husband struggle with bills and don't have a structure for her family. I know that when kids don't grow up with structure and life often times becomes sporadic and a lot of things that should be taken seriously arent or those traits develop way too late in life. Even though they love each other, she is fun and personable, her family has many things to work on and I wish they went into that more. Veronica's family is much more financially stable and structured and Dianne's family is more bonded and happy. The producers picked them perfectly.
Neither family is perfect to say the least. If that had been an African American family with a house in such disarray and a household filled with slothful grown children there would have been great emphasis on that fact.
this comment is filled with jealousy, , Talking down on the family structure you wish you had, this isnt a drug abusive family, its not a abusive enviorment, WOW, they arnt all pushing to do 100%. its a family that went through extreamly difficult hardship, and are making the most of every second they share together. money is nothing. money can not replace the void of not having a loving supporting family. big mortgages and fancy items do not = stability, last of all, money cannot buy morals.
Where I was born and raised there were not any black people around. It was just mexicans everywhere I could see and some white people. Yes, it was in the US where I'm from but there are not any black people. Once I moved away to a bigger city I was able to experience diversity and this was as an adult.
@@northshootingstar I live in Idaho and There wasnt much diversity growing up. However there is more and more all the time. I dont believe there is much predjudice. I think there is a perception that is actually untrue.
@@KrisBlack-idahogirl I've lived here 36 of the 38 years I've been alive and I concur.. Honestly, I still feel like a jackass with the first black kids I ever meant. Asking them about the civil rights movement as such. Granted I was a kid to but still... Then there was the time I was doing a Tina Turner song for a competition and I wanted to look like her. Thank God my sister saved me from that ignorant disgrace..
The white family was bomb af. They had more fun in one week than I do i a year!!homecooked meals, nobody screaming and Fighting, family hangouts. What a blessed family. I really hope the black family opens up a bit. Also funny that the daughter and mom don’t get along and she said she doesn’t take after her, she’s so much like her that’s why they fight! Lol
Usual black paranoïa. (And racist by the way.) It's funny you don't notice A.J was surprised to discorver that a poor white american family could exist. Double standard, hum? Hypocrite.
Love how both women embraced each other and were so kind to each other when they met up. It's refreshing to see people get along, and I'd rather see more of that than catfights.
It’s crazy how Diane was judge mental going through their neighborhood when her families the one’s living pay check to pay check one bath with kids sleeping on the sofa 🙄 she thought because their black situation had to be worst no hunny
She thought the blacks would be poor 😩I like this one bc it’s usually the white family who is wealthier. I think both families needed the experience. One thing I loved is when Veronica checked the child for stepping out of line Richard backed her up. Diane got the family to have fun. I liked this one a lot
@@betterwithwinebetterwithwi2359 I know what you mean. When the "general term" is used like that, it is indeed murky. Right up there with "you people". Some people just don't know 💫
I think this was one of the sweetest ones! Usually the moms are kinda pissy and all on their high horse about how 'there way' is the best way . Both families where really accepting and loving.
Did we see the same episode? She said the woman’s house was filthy (which it was) but they had fun if that’s all you want your kids to grow up wanting out of life.
I was recently diagnosed with MS.. my 5 kids and husband were scared!!! I have good days and bad days.. but we are here for each other ❤ family stands together... its not what you have, but who you have!! Truest statement ever!!Diane has a wonderful light and zest for life!! She makes me want more.. to get on my come back ❤ thank you for posting 😊
Hey I hope this isn’t too forward, I am also a mom of 5 and a lot of people don’t know about it but there’s a medicine called Valasta it’s basically a type of living algae that is extremely anti inflammatory and I’m not sure if MS is related to auto immune but it has been successful in autoimmune cases, anything inflammatory related. May be something to research and ask your dr about. It makes me cringe to give unsolicited advice 😬 I’m sorry for that, but if it could help I figured maybe I should just share it. God bless you
We all need to mix and party together more. Drop the BS and just enjoy the moments together. We are all people that like to have a good time at the end of the day
While Diane had a wonderful time with the family, and Veronica seemed a bit reserved, the end of the video where they wrote how to spend the money really shows the strengths and weaknesses of the mothers. While Veronica came through and actually spent time learning and understanding the needs of the family, Diane seemed to spend much more time having fun in a vacation-style way. Nothing wrong with either really, but because of their different styles and personalities, it seems like Diane's family came out ahead in the end with the quality of the overall experience. This was great to watch and must have been quite the experience.
Diane lives in the present not considering the future for her family especially since her kids are so unmotivated. At least Veronica made preservations for them to renovate and make much needed home repairs, it’s all about party time for Diane, life is just not like that. Oh yes incidentally I NEVER HEARD VERONICA’S DAUGHTER SAY ONCE SHE LOVED AND MISSED HER MOM. So that was a blatant lie(unless I missed it like I said)
The Italian American family is so beautifully traditional , so warm so close and so sweet !!! What a beautiful beautiful family!!! The other family , the mom Veronica has some serious emotional problems. She is so cold towards everyone while you could almost feel the hurt in her heart when she came home and her family wasn’t the least bit excited to see her. I only hope that when I go one day my family will miss me.
This episode touched my broken heart. Love conquers all. And although I wasn't even involved, I am better for having watched ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤ praise Jesus. He always finds a way to encourage me. 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉
I love Diane! Yes, she’s a talker, but so am I. I actually like being with other talkers because it gives me a chance to slow down and practice being a better listener.
Jamie the Female Glover I know !!!! For me it’s so weird to see people smoke inside 😂 Even though I do smoke but I can’t smoke inside my house it’s different nowadays
As an asthmatic, I can't deal with tobacco. If you need a cigarette, please smoke outside. Otherwise, Veronica has a wonderful family. Veronica is so beautiful.
Very enjoyable. .the two women are lovely but it just goes to show that the more love and decent fun you have in your family,the more understanding and close you can be with others but the more privilege you get catch up with,the more you miss out on being down to earth... But two nice families! I love that veronica stepped in and made them clean up their home because she has such a clean ,beautiful home..that's a wonderful quality also she put the child in his place.lol. .the other mom has a nice laugh and jolly personality.her house is a pretty home so keeping it clean makes it glow and lovely.
Diane is a very caring and loving mother despite her quirks and excessive talking. I love how she gets the entire family involved in all activities. I think all families nowadays could use some more quality time together!
They all loved Dianne
She is a good loving person, you’ right. But the relentless chatter would really get on my nerves.
I like her “excessive” talking and her quirkiness. It’s what makes her HER.

Great party
The husband that started crying when his wife left!!! So much love in that beautiful family. Such beautiful bond and love. Ugh so nice!

Super sweet ❤️

And he cried when she came back!!!! Lovely people for sure
Can I just say, it was SOOO refreshing to see both moms connect with each other

This episode was so good. It brought me to happy and joyous tears. I loved loved loved Diane and Veronica grewn on me at the end. Diane and Veronica energies combined would truly make a super mom. I wonder how they are doing now....
Veronica’s kids getting emotional when Diane was leaving made me emotional. Such good kids, I hope their mom thinks of them more instead of herself. It was heartbreaking hearing her say she wasn’t gonna miss her family & her family wouldn’t miss her. That’s never how I wanna be. Veronica is a good mom, she just needs to be more involved. You can tell Diane’s family taught her a lot
Dianne is the best mum you could ever ask for 🥺❤️❤️😂 I love Veronicas tidiness and the husbands on both sides are amazing and heart warming all the kids are lovely too ☺️❤️❤️
She's the mom of every kid's dreams!!
I hope both families are still friends ❤❤❤. This was a great swap. Both families really learned from each other❤❤❤❤❤
Omg this show has been an eye opener for me - I need to inject more fun and games into my family
That's so cool! Did you end up doing that?
Me too
Mee too
@@Alexandraincognito no, they went to jail.
@@jonb2756 ?
I really hope these two families kept a connection after, I could see them really becoming great friends
The Famiglietti family may not have much but they have each other and they live each day together. That is a special thing.
Had each other. 😢
This quarantine needs to be over soon because im running out of these to watch 👁👄👁…
😷 I agree!
I’ve never read something more accurate
How u doin now 😅
Bad news. It ain’t ever ending
Me too I'm pretty sure there was another show very similar to this one..they sometimes change dads or grandparents...I cant remember the name off hand though...👩💻
Diane is an amazing person both families are so touching and more welcoming than expected... I hope Veronica looks deep into this experience and warms up a little more and is proud of how her family treated Diane even though she doesn't show love like she should...the BEST EPISODE BY FAR💓💓💓💓💓
Someone told me in America, adverts are longer than the show you watch, now I get it...
THESE PROACTIVE COMMERCIALS ARE AT LEAST THREE TO FOUR MINUTES LONG.
If you skip for 210-220 seconds you’ll bypass the ads.
In Mexico (my country) is the same thing so much commercials
@@Roheline9 im laughing because i actually didn't think of doing that until I read your comment xp
As a European yeh this is crazy. How can you watch tv like this?
The ads are like a virtual time capsule
In the beginning i thought Diane and Family focused too much on race! In my community (AA) we don't tend to care/focus too much on race so it was uncomfortable HOWEVER I absolutely loved both mothers and family! They each are a perfect type to what the other family needs! They both mothers/spouses/kids, they all touched my heart! I hope they were able to forge a friendship! What a GREAT episode :)
Same . 👍 agree
Nah, Race will always play apart. The issue is you all play colorblind to what’s wrong the issue especially for black people. There is a system in place to keep black people below. To say we talk too much about race means you aren’t doing enough.
AA like Asian American? That's surprising?
@@Kushhhiana cause you knows right!? Shit the fuck up
@@aboutashow and wtf you talking about!? If u racist just say that
Goddamn the Famiglietti mom is downright the nicest person I've ever seen in my life
Tyler Lavoie We should know by now, it’s all SCRIPTED !!!
My Room lmfao so? You can’t fake the personality she has. You can see how passionate she is and caring.
Gosh, I just love Diane! She would be a blessing in any family she walked into. What an amazing person, soul, attitude, and huge personality. I would love to have a person like her in my life! So uplifting, positive, and kind! I just loved her!!!
I love the little thibodeaux boy... So funny ♥️both families are lovely. think she should not be jealous. Her family loves her so much, she should just allow a little more fun. Sad she's so mad at the end about spending the money.
Yeah, i was thinking, 'How are you so pissed off that your family will have their own swimming pool? How is that in *any* way a bad thing?' 🤔
Swimming pools cost money to upkeep. None of us know their financial issues.
Veronica has a good soul as well, and I loved seeing how great they both treated each others family.
I love these mothers and their families. This episode was so touching 😊
Diane is so sweet!!! Veronica is reserved but very proper and kind! I think this is the first family where I love both families. Lol
Veronica ❤️ I admire her character. Self-love and assertiveness while humble and open to learning from others. Wot a lady. Hope she did make some adjustments and encourage having more fun
It’s so weird seeing these white kids be stunned at the fact she’s black like what a world wtf
I’m still trying to figure out where the white FamilÝ is from?? Edit: they’re from Massachusetts
Lol like welcome to America lol
And the black family didn’t even care she was white
@@bhandlon that makes sense haha
@@bhandlon
I see that it might be Massachusetts, with Logan being the nearest airport, but they could also be in Rhode Island.
That would explain the lack of exposure to Black people, and the Dad kinda has that "Long Island" Italian look, rather than the "Boston North End" Italian look.
You know? like Vinnie "The Pazmanian Devil" Pazienza.
The white family: I was really shocked when she came in, I didn't know she was gonna be black
The white mom: are you shocked I'm white?
The black family: no
Says alot about humanity
That's when you know racial issues lie deep within smdh
It work out well. I like both families.
And white people say black people are the one's that makes everything about race!! Yeah right, we bring up race because America makes everything about race!! 🙄
That's the world. Don't worry, families are so integrated now days, it won't be long until we spread unity to every corner and everyone just... Gets it. I'm so tired of the bi focals on the amounts of melanin in the skin. I think every school needs a humanity course. Bring all kinds of people in and expose them to the world in the classroom! Okay, there I go with one of my ideas, sorry.
Lol! Little boy talked back and noticed he should've never done that ever in his life in 1.2 secs. 😂😂😂
I love love love Diane..she reminds me of my family. Diane, if you ever read this, know you are a gift from God. The world loves you and your family. Veronica, you too, are great in your own way. We all go through life which forms us. We just can't lose sight of what matters. Great episode!
my very favorite episode.... by far!! Love both families!!
A very touching show!!!
good friends rock! Me too!! I know a lot of ppl watch for conflict but I'd rather see ones like these where both families and their moms were so amazing and you could see there was a real bond ❤️
@@princessrockman9528 oh yes!!! that is it! plus I feel like there is something I can learn from them that can enrich my life!!
They're all great, and lovely families.
Diane is awesome! I love her spirit, personality, and love she had for that family. She really enjoys life, and knows what's important. I love that!
I love Diane it's the love that she give " for me"
Yes I love her too, would love an update on these two families.
For those asking why Richard (white dad) called the spaghetti sauce "gravy" He is Italian and they call it "Sunday Gravy" and the reason is because after going to church on Sundays there is usually a big family dinner, with a big ol pot of spaghetti as the main course.
Wow! Thank you for that explanation we never would have figured that out.
@@maryh-w8647 drag her!!
Yep. We did that growing up. Went to church early Sunday morning came home and had a nice breakfast and got the gravy going for Sunday spaghetti
*Italian-American. There’s a huge difference! My cousins are born and raised in Italy and there are little to no similarities.
Interesting 🍝
‘I may cook breakfast tomorrow. I’m thinking about it’. Kid had me in hysterics idk why that was so hilarious to me💀
I honestly like both of these women, they both have great personalities.
" i have not seen anywhite people.... is this a poor part of atlanta?" omfg
That right there just did something to meee
That was probably editing
Chile. My blood started to boil. This is a prime example of how white people feel/ think about black people
🤔 Editing? Oh okay.
😬😬😬😬
those old school ads... so nostalgic
The good ole days
@@dreamscapedamsel8783 honestly though ;-; the good ol days of sitting in front of the tv watching whatever was on and changing the channel when an ad came. And if all the channels u watch had an ad playing then you'd just sit through it all lol
“I’m done with dialup!” ☠️
I love how good Alvin was to Diane. They seemed to really get along great!!! Both great people!!!
I love people. I just want to say that. This quarantine has made me miss simple and small interactions so much. I hope everyone is doing well and staying safe. 6 ft away hugs from me and hoping your family is healthy and happy. -Ben
I miss the same things :(
Right?! I didn't realize what a hugger I really until all of this.. Evenu doctor. Elbow bumps just don't cut it.
Stay healthy.
☺
Meeeee toooo, I went to get some blood tests last weeks and came out in tears because I had a lovely long conversation with the nurse. I miss talking with ppl
You never know what You'll Miss😢 until You Don't or Can't Have it 😚🤗

My favorite episode hands down! I adore both families, but Diane is the sweetest woman and so inspiring. I love both of the husbands as well! Alvin and Richard were both so welcoming and kind! Good people do exist.
“The only place my Mom takes me is the dentist” omg I adore that little boy so much. He’s very funny 😂❤️ Adored both of these families. They’re wonderful families. Veronica, once she came out of her shell, was so vivacious and she clearly has a good heart. And she got that boy in LINE when he disrespected his father 👏 But Diane, she’s very special. And is the type of person I would absolutely be friends with. Her heart is golden and warm, her soul is beautiful and kind, her manner genuine, open and joyful. She’s truly a wonderful person.
I know the obsenities bring in more viewers and higher the ratings , i'm pretty sure i never heard one swear word but oh how i really enjoyed this episode so enjoyable cos it was so nice . i think this lady having that health scare she valued life and the Thibodeaux family were a thoroughly nice family the way she spoke to the young boy showing him to appreciate things more , you know you don't need all the screaming and shouting to enjoy a show this was a change to the norm
Both of these moms are exceptional women! I love episodes like this where the two families really made the most beautiful connection!
I love the personalities of both families. The sacrifices Veronica and her husband make for her kids show here and sometimes people forget to have fun and enjoy life especially when you dont want your kids to grow up in the same environment that you did. I get that. A lot of families are like that. There are also families like Dianne's that enjoy being fun all of the time. These families show me it's important to have a healthy balance of both. If I overindulge in one or the other, I'll be hurt in the long run.
Why is it that every episode of this show These people act like the black families are alien? Like I know that it’s the early 2000s but damn they act like they have never seen a black person.
This was before Obama.
ikr the white families mean well but they are so over eager to please, like they are worried their guest doesnt like them. either they dont have many black friends or this is the first black person in their house
And the black families act like everything the white lady does is crazy. So whatevs
Emz ________ fuck honestly the way they were stunned at the fact she was black wtf
Much of the US is still segregated. Even in 2020
This episode was from 16 yrs ago I wonder how they're all doing now
The father in the white family passed away 5 years ago. The mom Diane lost a ton of weight and looks amazing. The daughter in the white family is married and has a daughter. Not sure about the rest.
@@ojosazulez3271 It was actually Richard's father that passed, May he rest in peace, and not Richard Jr.
They need to do a quarantine edition and just video chat with these people.
@@louis-vd3ur no it was Richard
@@abc123gcb Damn, you should have sold that idea to them back in 2021! Everyone was getting hooked on this shiz on RUclips through the lockdowns. Genius. 😎 (I have no excuse for watching this video right now in 2024, I know.)😁
Just looked the Famigiettis up on Facebook. Diane lost a ton of weight since then! She's in her 60s as I write this (January 2022). I didn't think she was the same Diane until I saw she was friends with Marc and Justin going through their pages and was like, "Yep that's her!".
“If my mom was in the park she would be looking at me like this 👀” 😂😂
So you see mostly black people and immediately conclude that it was poor area. Smh
And then when the daughter said "...darker than usual..." 👀
No boo, down here we go from ghetto to lifestyles of the rich and famous in one street. Thats all. She ain mean nothing by it. Surroundings is it
Meanwhile across town, she's living paycheck to paycheck...on every penny 🤔.
An overabundance of talking will always lead to offending someone. She needs to embrace silence, it usually leads to careful thought.
Omg another stupid comment
59:37 had me screaming with laughter! Veronica couldn’t wait to make them clean up🤣😂
I loved this episode!!!! These women , these families, just amazing ! Beautiful people!
What a great connection the mom's had when they met! Great people!!
To those in the comments solely applauding Dianne's family, although we love how fun and sweet she is, she and her husband struggle with bills and don't have a structure for her family. I know that when kids don't grow up with structure and life often times becomes sporadic and a lot of things that should be taken seriously arent or those traits develop way too late in life. Even though they love each other, she is fun and personable, her family has many things to work on and I wish they went into that more. Veronica's family is much more financially stable and structured and Dianne's family is more bonded and happy. The producers picked them perfectly.
Neither family is perfect to say the least. If that had been an African American family with a house in such disarray and a household filled with slothful grown children there would have been great emphasis on that fact.
this comment is filled with jealousy, , Talking down on the family structure you wish you had, this isnt a drug abusive family, its not a abusive enviorment, WOW, they arnt all pushing to do 100%. its a family that went through extreamly difficult hardship, and are making the most of every second they share together. money is nothing. money can not replace the void of not having a loving supporting family. big mortgages and fancy items do not = stability, last of all, money cannot buy morals.
Diane is sweet but it irked me at 1:20:57 seeing her get in her face like that. She doesn’t understand personal space, lol.
Lol that bugged me to and Diana I think has good intentions but I wouldn’t be able to handle more than 10min of her
@@Artemis_jay I know I'd tap out after 5. She talks way too much and I have a thing about personal space.
These families are so sweet. I wish them abudance of love, health and happiness! Hopefully they have this to look back at and smile.
I understand they had no 'experience' with black people, but they're acting like they've never seen one before 😂😂
Where I was born and raised there were not any black people around. It was just mexicans everywhere I could see and some white people. Yes, it was in the US where I'm from but there are not any black people. Once I moved away to a bigger city I was able to experience diversity and this was as an adult.
I didn't see 1 until I went to college in another state. Welcome to rule racist Idaho
@@northshootingstar
What?? Um.. I wouldn't say the whole state is racist. A little ignorant about black folk but not inherently racist..
@@northshootingstar I live in Idaho and There wasnt much diversity growing up. However there is more and more all the time. I dont believe there is much predjudice. I think there is a perception that is actually untrue.
@@KrisBlack-idahogirl
I've lived here 36 of the 38 years I've been alive and I concur.. Honestly, I still feel like a jackass with the first black kids I ever meant. Asking them about the civil rights movement as such. Granted I was a kid to but still... Then there was the time I was doing a Tina Turner song for a competition and I wanted to look like her. Thank God my sister saved me from that ignorant disgrace..
This episode is the best. I love it. They treated the other moms like family
The white family was bomb af. They had more fun in one week than I do i a year!!homecooked meals, nobody screaming and Fighting, family hangouts. What a blessed family. I really hope the black family opens up a bit. Also funny that the daughter and mom don’t get along and she said she doesn’t take after her, she’s so much like her that’s why they fight! Lol
Yeah I'm a lot like my mom which is why we fight a lot
Yet the kids sleep all day and don't clean while saying they aren't lazy..
Aj debating whether or not to make breakfast the next morning is the best thing ever .
Diane was such a sweet fun mom. Hope she’s well. These families were so great to each other.
Both dads in this episode are great!
Diane seemed a bit surprised to see a successful African American family.
My sentiments exactly
Exactly
Usual black paranoïa. (And racist by the way.) It's funny you don't notice A.J was surprised to discorver that a poor white american family could exist.
Double standard, hum?
Hypocrite.
You're seeing things you want to see, not what was there.
Love how both women embraced each other and were so kind to each other when they met up. It's refreshing to see people get along, and I'd rather see more of that than catfights.
Diane put that party together so fast, her heart shows immediately. I hope the very best for you Diane!
It’s crazy how Diane was judge mental going through their neighborhood when her families the one’s living pay check to pay check one bath with kids sleeping on the sofa 🙄 she thought because their black situation had to be worst no hunny
👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾 I was irritated w her from that point on like girl!!
She said I see a lots of black people must be the poor part of town.... yea and she’s so nice.
I think she was referring to all of the businesses and the overall look of the area they were driving through.
Ikr 🙄
She thought the blacks would be poor 😩I like this one bc it’s usually the white family who is wealthier. I think both families needed the experience. One thing I loved is when Veronica checked the child for stepping out of line Richard backed her up. Diane got the family to have fun. I liked this one a lot
Blacks?... As a person of colour, that word is so murky
Mia Mia I agree but it’s a “general term” unfortunately. Im not black black is a color 🙄 u said person of color so u arent black correct?
True, I loved that Richard backed her up too, that's how you know they're good people as a family.
Peaches Kong yes!! I agree
@@betterwithwinebetterwithwi2359 I know what you mean. When the "general term" is used like that, it is indeed
murky. Right up there with "you people". Some people just don't know 💫
Did he say this is mom and she not kidding. The dad really accepted the new spouse and the role she played
I'm AlLeRgIc To DuSt 🥴🥴
Me: then clean your room so you can breathe. 😒😒 I have allergies too and when they go off it's time to dust.
I think this was one of the sweetest ones! Usually the moms are kinda pissy and all on their high horse about how 'there way' is the best way . Both families where really accepting and loving.
I couldn’t stop crying 😭 beautiful family on both sides they did not say anything negative about each other love it 🥰
Did we see the same episode? She said the woman’s house was filthy (which it was) but they had fun if that’s all you want your kids to grow up wanting out of life.
I was recently diagnosed with MS.. my 5 kids and husband were scared!!! I have good days and bad days.. but we are here for each other ❤ family stands together... its not what you have, but who you have!! Truest statement ever!!Diane has a wonderful light and zest for life!! She makes me want more.. to get on my come back ❤ thank you for posting 😊
Hey I hope this isn’t too forward, I am also a mom of 5 and a lot of people don’t know about it but there’s a medicine called Valasta it’s basically a type of living algae that is extremely anti inflammatory and I’m not sure if MS is related to auto immune but it has been successful in autoimmune cases, anything inflammatory related. May be something to research and ask your dr about. It makes me cringe to give unsolicited advice 😬 I’m sorry for that, but if it could help I figured maybe I should just share it. God bless you
I’m sorry but was I the only one who noticed the white woman behind them staring when the dad and mom met at the airport? 💀
Ikr,lol
We all need to mix and party together more. Drop the BS and just enjoy the moments together. We are all people that like to have a good time at the end of the day
Exactly 💯
She called your lazy because you are. You sleep in, you don't clean, don't cook. Your mama had a heart attack, you need to be taking care of her!
While Diane had a wonderful time with the family, and Veronica seemed a bit reserved, the end of the video where they wrote how to spend the money really shows the strengths and weaknesses of the mothers. While Veronica came through and actually spent time learning and understanding the needs of the family, Diane seemed to spend much more time having fun in a vacation-style way. Nothing wrong with either really, but because of their different styles and personalities, it seems like Diane's family came out ahead in the end with the quality of the overall experience.
This was great to watch and must have been quite the experience.
Fun verses reality!!!
Diane lives in the present not considering the future for her family especially since her kids are so unmotivated. At least Veronica made preservations for them to renovate and make much needed home repairs, it’s all about party time for Diane, life is just not like that. Oh yes incidentally I NEVER HEARD VERONICA’S DAUGHTER SAY ONCE SHE LOVED AND MISSED HER MOM. So that was a blatant lie(unless I missed it like I said)
I love Diane ❤ both families were awesome. This was a good episode.
The Italian American family is so beautifully traditional , so warm so close and so sweet !!! What a beautiful beautiful family!!!
The other family , the mom Veronica has some serious emotional problems. She is so cold towards everyone while you could almost feel the hurt in her heart when she came home and her family wasn’t the least bit excited to see her.
I only hope that when I go one day my family will miss me.
sure karen . tell the beautiful italian family to clean they nasty house
Two beautiful mums ❤ love how polite and friendly they are
I literally keep forgetting that I can skip the commercials like I guess I’m conditioned to sit here and watch them 🤷🏾♂️
Right same here 😀😂
😂same
This episode touched my broken heart. Love conquers all. And although I wasn't even involved, I am better for having watched ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤ praise Jesus. He always finds a way to encourage me. 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉
I felt like by now I've seen every episode, but this one is absolutely my new favorite, for wholesome reasons
When A.J. Got sad bc Dianne was leaving and the rest of the family were sad she was leaving, so heartwarming.
To quickly skip ads it’s alway 220 seconds to get back to the show so keep double tapping right. 👍
All these years I didn’t know that!! It’s the only thing I didn’t like about these videos. Thanks!!
Thank you!!
I love Diane! Yes, she’s a talker, but so am I. I actually like being with other talkers because it gives me a chance to slow down and practice being a better listener.
I love how respectful and supportive the hubbys were ..great episode.
My favourite episode of all❤ This was so special. Thanks for uploading!
Veronica son look just like her & the daughter looks just like her dad. I love Diana she's a cool mom, I would love an update on both families.😊
"I want a rich life" AJ
😆😆 He is so adorable.
Does these old shows and these commercials make anyone else super nostalgic? I remember a lot of these ads from when I was a kid.
Absolutely! Definitely took me back to a happy time in my childhood just binge watching tv
Way to make me feel old 😂... Everybody through here commenting this and here I am like "these commercials ain't even all that old!"😂😂😂
Surprised he's smoking in the house.
Jamie the Female Glover I know !!!! For me it’s so weird to see people smoke inside 😂
Even though I do smoke but I can’t smoke inside my house it’s different nowadays
It was the 90's. My parents still smoked in the house in the 90's.
Hell, my in-laws still smoke in their house now. 😳
i swear
I still smoke in my house. I pay the bills, not about to smoke outside in the cold🤷
As an asthmatic, I can't deal with tobacco. If you need a cigarette, please smoke outside. Otherwise, Veronica has a wonderful family. Veronica is so beautiful.
The smile on Brittany's face looking at her mother during the letter reading 😂😂😂😂 Finished me
Very enjoyable. .the two women are lovely but it just goes to show that the more love and decent fun you have in your family,the more understanding and close you can be with others but the more privilege you get catch up with,the more you miss out on being down to earth...
But two nice families!
I love that veronica stepped in and made them clean up their home because she has such a clean ,beautiful home..that's a wonderful quality also she put the child in his place.lol. .the other mom has a nice laugh and jolly personality.her house is a pretty home so keeping it clean makes it glow and lovely.
Wow Veronicas family didn't miss her.
She said she doesn't miss them to
Veronica is a 'itch
Can we acknowledge the amazing brotherly and sisterly love between the F. family kids? I absolutely love their vibe, friends as well as siblings.
