Tonight's episodes--10/26

Here are tonight's episodes:

EPISODE 5: School of Hard Knocks: As the twins' senior year of high school flies by, it's clear that Zach and Jeremy are not ready for higher education. Amy takes them to tour a local college, but the boys are way behind the curve in applying and getting accepted to a university.

EPISODE 6: A House Divided: It's Matt against the whole family as Amy encourages the kids' desire to have their friends over in their newly remodeled home. The result is chaos and clutter. Matt fights back by organizing the jumbled mess in the basement, which Amy uses for storage.

Last week's episodes also featured the Roloff boys taking a tour of a college, Corban in Salem. Corban is a small Christian school, which might attract the Roloffs for a couple of reasons. One is that it is much like the school they spent their formative years at, Faith, and another is that it does offer a men's soccer team. It was interesting to hear Zach and Amy both state that Corban may be a little too much like Faith, however. Zach did say the college experience there wouldn't be much of a change from what they're used to, and it wouldn't give them a taste of the bigger world that's out there. I was hoping to hear more from Jeremy, but I think this school tour was more to see if it was a fit for Zach than Jeremy.

The rumor these days is that the twins end up at Portland Community College. Most community colleges have a more lax acceptance policy and a longer enrollment period in which to apply than four-year universities. If it is true that the boys are at PCC, this episode may make it clear as to why--they are "way behind the curve in applying and getting accepted to a university."
