That Jimmy Kimmel video is a good example of the problem Hilary has. I truly feel she's been demonized for years mainly for being a woman and people just make up reasons to hate her. If she was a man she wouldn't be nearly as disliked as she is.

I think Luann just knows how to play the game better than Carole. Luann knows you go balls to the walls and do what you gotta do to create drama, but then next season you apologize, make up, film together and go from there. That's what they expected Carole to do, but she is obviously stubborn and not over their issues and isn't going to go for that. I've never felt like Carole was a MAJOR player at the center of anything, but I've always enjoyed her. I feel like it's good having her in the mix.

But how is avoiding filming with Luann desperately trying to make a storyline with her? She seems fine not being around her or talking about her, but obviously it's the main thing brought up. You really think it's her going on and on about her in talking heads? That's what they want her to talk about. It's her main takeaway from last season.

With Sonja and Luann I feel like they both screwed themselves early on. Neither had contracts when the season started which is the real reason they were out of the loop so long. It had nothing to do with Bethenny. Notice how the season started with all their scenes together with them living together. That was all filmed much later, as we saw when they reused that footage midseason to show when Luann actually did move in. That's why they were always questioning if they should invite them to events because nobody knew if they'd be full-time cast members. Then once they did sign on Sonja had the Tipsy Girl thing and it caused a rift with Bethenny. As for Carole, I've enjoyed her all season as a side kick to Bethenny and I've enjoyed her solo scenes as well. I think she gives good shade in the talking heads and is an enjoyable cast member. I don't need everybody to be brash and sassy. I also like that she's stood firm with Luann. She's accepted her apology but simply doesn't want to be friends with her, which shows like this tend to expect. Yes she's talking about her a lot, because this is a soap opera with continuing storylines and they expect you to bring that up since it's relevant. I truly have no complaints with New York this year. They finally have gotten it together. None of the drama is too dark and I feel everybody has been shown fairly. Everybody says Bethenny runs things, but she looks so bad that I fail to see how that is true.

I think Carole has brought a lot more this season that she's given credit for. The one who has struggled for story seems to be Sonja and Jules if anything, but overall this is one of the strongest casts they've ever had. Everybody is pulling their weight.

Shannon played her card the wrong way! She's almost as bad as David is at hiding an affair. If she wanted to play the victim then she shouldn't have revealed the stuff the girls told her about Kelly's alleged affair. That came so far out of left field and revealed that she was trying to start something. I only wish Vicki had gone as hard as Kelly did. I also wanted it to continue. Kelly SLAYED and she is going to murder Shannon next week. This season is sooooooo good and that is thanks to Vicki, Kelly and to a smaller extent Tamra. Megan is useless and needs to go, period. Heather is good for the wealth and snootiness and I CANNOT wait til Kelly digs into her ass later on. I do have a question about a spoiler I read about RHOC:

How are yall not going crazy over Why So Lonely by Wonder Girls?! I liked their last comeback, but they absolutely have killed me with this ultra smooth little bop. I'm also glad they mostly ditched the band style performances, which I think it helping their success this time around. I still miss Sohee, but this lineup is working for me.

With the Live + 3 Day ratings New Jersey got like 2.6 million viewers. Regardless, OC is leading the back (after ATL of course) and New York made a shocking resurgence this year so good for them. I think New Jersey will continue to build as the stories develop. It's been off the air for a year. OC is proof to never give up on one of these franchises because it's rebuilt itself the past few years with very little promo and a lower profile than the others. They only started paying attention to it again in the past two seasons.

I think this may be one of the best dressed reunions ever! Even Carole. She looks better than she has in ages. I like that she finally did a different look, especially the hair.

I think Dobson looks fine considering he was always more mature looking and masculine, but Ted looks very frail compared to his Y&R days where he still was allowed to be a bit of a hunk. Joan is still my goddess and I miss seeing her on screen. I still hate she left Y&R. She would be running that show by now had she stayed. Her Gloria was more interesting and more powerful than the cartoon Judith Chapman has always played.

The Cheshire reunion was decent but uneventful, like the entire season. I would've made it an hour and a half and had Magali as a special guest. She deserved a reunion spotlight, especially considering the epic second season didn't get one. My favorite was Ampika who effortlessly slayed everybody in her wake, especially Missi. When Missi said she was simple and Ampika said, "You are absolutely correct" I almost died lol. She is just silky smooth and I can't get enough of Ampika. With the season over I must say I wasn't impressed with any of the new wives. I wanted to love Seema since we don't really have Asian housewives, but she was kinda dull. Stacey is alright and the reunion should save her but Missi has got to go. She was zzzz from day one. They need to bring Magali back at all costs. If Magali isn't back next season I can't see myself even checking it out. This season proved how vital she was to this series.

Lisa Vanderpump revealed in her blog so info that shows she's going to slay those women. Apparently Lisa Rinna had sent out some nasty texts to Kyle and Lisa VP about Yolanda (which is NOT mentioned on the show) and she finally reveals and reads them out during the reunion. She said she could've easily shown those to the girls while the show was filming and get the heat off of her, but she valued her friendship with Lisa Rinna so she didn't do it. I feel like it's going to slay Rinna and she will regret going after Vanderpump. I think Lisa Rinna going after Lisa Vanderpump, one of her biggest supporters will be one of the biggest mistakes in housewives history. It's just petty. I can't even understand why they're arguing over it.

OMG!!!!!!!!!!!!! I hope Lisa goes in as hard as she is on those blogs at the reunion! Lisa Rinna and Eileen are SO STUPID for going against her. She was the best ally they could have and Yolanda is going to push them aside as soon as she doesn't need them. That's why Kyle isn't trying to mess things up with Vanderpump because she wants to keep her Diamond. They need to accept she is the queen, pure and simple. In other news, Bravo's website had a list of upcoming shows and one of them was Real Housewives of D.C.: Five Years On (Summer 2016). When their attention was brought to it, it was removed and they said it's not coming back. I'm wondering if they were planning a catch up special or something, since they've done so many. They even randomly have a special planned in a couple weeks for RHOC the season where Lydia appeared. I find that so odd that they're doing a special on one season and even bringing the housewives back to film interviews for it. Going back to RHOBH, I believe Yolanda WAS sick, but now I feel like she is suffering the effects of menopause and Munchausen's and that's it. She is VERY manipulative and is using whatever illness she does have to get sympathy and attention. I hope it's worth it for her because she has lost her husband and many friends over this. I HATED her Lyme gala and all the misinformation she keeps putting through. There is no evidence that you can get Lyme from a horsefly, which is how she claims she and all her kids got it, it IS curable with the majority of cured with antibiotics, it is NOT a sexually transmitted disease, there are not nearly enough cases to justify calling it an epidemic on the scale of AIDS (which is sick and insulting of her to even say) and this "Chronic" Lyme disease she claims to have isn't recognized by any reputable doctor. I want someone to just be firm and call her out. I would be firm and say "Yes, the bitch got Munchausen's. I SAID WHAT I SAID AND I AIN'T CHANGING." I would be pure Nene Leakes on her ass and she would hate me. I was hoping that would be Lisa Rinna. Let Kyle, Lisa and Kathryn be there to support you and go in and let have. I would not be beating around the bush.

I had no idea somebody filled in as Kim on ATWT for that long! That's more than a temp recast, that's more like a full recast. I'd love to see that. I can't imagine anyone in that role.

I don't think Lisa Rinna is crazy, but she's a flip flopper. She has good instincts but needs to have the balls to OWN IT. Stop backtracking, OWN IT. Like with Kim, you know that hoe didn't know anything about your husband so why get worked up? And with Yolanda, she needed to be consistent. She should've created a power alliance with Kyle, Lisa and Kathryn and called it a day. It's what she believed in the first place. Her throwing Lisa VP under the bus makes no sense. Hell, everybody knows that is the popular crowd to be in anyway. It's crazy how everyone is bending over backwards for Yolanda when she has never even been that popular as a housewife.

I wouldn't make any drastic changes to Beverly Hills. I think this season was a decent reboot after losing two new cast members. I'd do Lisa V, Lisa R, Kyle, Erika, Kathryn, Camille, Eileen and one new cast member. I think too much cast turnover looks bad. But with Yolanda gone it could give Erika a chance to fly. She can still have her brief appearances with Munchie, Kim and Brandi if they want, but as long as Yolanda isn't a full time cast member or true Friend then they will be fine. She is SO DRAINING!

I agree DaytimeFan. Chris is married to Kim and they have kids. If you google him and look at the rumors, there is ABSOLUTELY NOTHING concrete or even strong. Simply people saying because he seems gay he must be. No men are coming out saying they were with him or anything. It doesn't matter and it's not a story. Kenya said that to be messy and start drama like when she mentioned the texts from Apollo then backpedaled when they saw the texts and didn't see anything inappropriate. Not every man is the same and it's offensive to gay people to assume Chris is gay because he fits a few STEREOTYPES of gay people.

RHOD looks awful. The trailer and casting is underwhelming and the intro is horrible. The girl at the end had the worst tagline and delivery and yet the close with her? The CGI stars is a great idea, but the execution is so cheap looking. I'm not a fan of what they're bringing at all.

I'M SICK OF HEARING THAT KIM DOESN'T FIT IN! She does! She is perfect! They needed to change things or they could've kept Claudia and Demetria. I like that she brings a different vibe. She didn't know anybody so obviously it was going to be an adjustment, but once they adjusted she was just fine. I think by next season she will be a perfect fit. I LOVED that reunion trailer! Porsha trying to come at Nene was HILARIOUS! Porsha and Phaedra better be careful next season! Kim was getting Kenya IN CHECK! I LOVED IT!!! Kenya was slaying as well and that is THE BEST she has ever looked at a reunion! Oh I cannot wait! I know it's a little short, but this has been a very solid season for them. A nice comeback season.

Okay large cast whatever, but NO MAGALI?! She was the star of the first two seasons BY FAR! I can't even look at any of the info because I no longer care.

Okay New York is bringing it. Looks VERY good. Just the right cast changes, you don't even miss the other two.

OC it's been said all ladies are back. Lydia is filming something involving the show, but not sure if it's new or for a special. Many speculate it's a special since she's posting behind the scenes of her filming talking heads and they usually wouldn't allow that if you're returning to the show in an official capacity. NYC only thing we know is that Bethenny said herself she tipped her toes in the water last season, but she's heavily involved in the drama this year. They also have a half-Asian new housewife named Julianne. I'm curious how OC will go if it pretty much keeps the same cast. I need them to move on from the Brooks drama. I don't want until Vicki pile up. They tried that last season and it isn't entertaining and it doesn't work. Similar to Beverly Hills always trying to make Vanderpump the outcast.

I'm not concerned with Kim right now. What I would like to focus on is the rumored RHONY announcement for today! Andy said it's sooner than we expect and rumors are today. I hope by the time I wake up I have a trailer and new pictures. I'm excited because we have very little information other than the new housewife. I'm curious what they give us. I hope it's a good season. I imagine maybe they'll air it as RHOBH winds down and we will have RHONY and RHOD for a while. I don't expect RHONJ until LATE this year and same for RHOC which will probably push RHOBH out of it's typical November premiere. We shall see, but I'm excited.

Jersey just isn't fun. Even in the first season I felt like it was a chore to watch until we got to the table flip. They have huge moments, but the day-to-day stuff is incredibly boring with them. They could've saved that show by bringing in non-related housewives around season 4, but since they never did it just is too late to save it. I'm interested in seeing their trailer whenever that comes later this year. I feel like it's going to be another boring season.

See, I don't think Katie is bringing anything out. She's always been clear on being biracial and proud of both sides. Her wearing her hair like that doesn't shock me. Even on the show she doesn't perm it, she just flatirons it so you can clearly see she is still black. I like Katie. She's dumb as a sack of rocks, but she isn't trying to hurt anybody. She's fun to watch and I look forward to seeing where future seasons would take her, especially without this current boyfriend.
