I don't believe her. Andy has said he lets the hiusewives script their exits/demotions out of respect. Katie Hamilton filmed half a season as a fulltime wife. That's 6 wives right there all with story lines from what we've heard. Lizzie was barely holding on last season so she was always going to be demoted or fired. My guess is they'll hope she has the same spark Luann had when she got demoted.

RHOA reunion was unwatchable. If it continues like this I'm over the show. No further comment needed. In happier news, the RHOC promo was everything. The new girl seems interesting and it looks dramatic. I can't believe Vicki learned her mom died in a random phone call during a HW party. That is insane. It's going to be a rollarcoaster ride. I'm glad Lizzie is a Friend because she was extremely boring. I also like that they are confident enough to only have five main wives. Going into their 10th season, they still set the standard.

I HATE HATE HATE Heather and Carole this season. I've always liked Heather and then Carole became one of my all-time favorite housewives so this surprises me. My problem with Heather is that she seems so phony this season like she's trying too hard to appear nice. She's playing too the cameras more now that she knows she has to fight for screentime. The past two years she was being showcased first as the new rich Housewife and then as a central player in all the drama, since everybody wanted to be connected with Heather. Now she just isn't settling in the way I had hoped. Then with Carole, my god, how is this the same woman?! Sex and the City itself is dated, why the hell would I want to watch her recreate it? I don't mind her dating a younger man, but it seems like her entire personality has changed and like she's going out of her way to create this cutesy, dumb persona. I'm not a fan. I don't like her at all this year. I don't like the way the feud with Luann is developing either. It was better when they felt like equals. Now that Carole is playing dumb it doesn't click.

A lot of people have been hard on Bethenny, but I love her this season. She has given them the right spark. I also completely understand her abrasiveness because she is being thrown in, the center of attention and is still trying to figure out where she fits. I will say on the subject of Heather, I'm completely Team Bethenny. I always knew Heather held a grudge from comments Bethenny made on WWHL about her and she's retaliating in a stealth way. The first time they met the first thing Heather said was how Luann helped create the Skinnygirl Margarita, which isn;t even true. Then going in on Bethenny's problems with Ramona which should be completely irrelevant to developing a friendship with BETHENNY. Now we have her stirring the pot about Bethenny not inviting someone she doesn't even know to her birthday party. She needs to mind her own business. Yes Bethenny was abrasive in her response, but why is Heather even asking? Let Kristen talk to Bethenny. Bethenny said on Twitter she reacted like that because it felt like Heather was trying to manipulate drama when they're interesting enough not to do that. I agree with Bethenny. If you look at the early seasons they didn't need to have everybody at every event or create drama, it was just natural. Especially on this franchise. If anything, Bethenny deserves a lot of credit for openly cutting through the crap, especially the producer driven crap and letting these girls know she won't participate. It's SO MUCH more interesting that way!

For the Olson twins they should cut a deal where each does half the episodes, or each just does any given number of episodes that way they can actually use and develop the character, but it isn't too much of a strain on each twin if they don't want to act full time.

The casting should be stronger for a show this high profile. It always seems the new wives, starting with Porsha are so D-list.

Kandi was engaged and to be fair to her, her man died which is how she ended up single on the show.

The thing with Claudia is that she wasn't meant to be a housewife, so she deserves a full season to see how she would work out. It's obvious that she was edited into the pre-Puerto Rico episodes and as a result she didn't have much non-group footage after that time. I think she did a good enough job, certainly better than Porsha and deserves another year. I also don't think she came for Nene as much as she couldn't let it go after their initial conflict.

Ramona was low down and dirty with Luann so I didn't expect Luann to completely accept her apology and move on. They both handled it correctly Luann by being upfront about her reservations and Ramona for accepting that and agreeing to move forward in a positive way. NYC is on fire this season though. I will say that Kristin is absolutely useless and unneeded and Heather would be right there if she didn't start this feud with Bethenny. I figured this would happen because with Bethenny back Heather knew she'd no longer be the focus. Not only is she intimidated by her, but Bethenny made such dismissive comments about her on WWHL and you know tha irked Heather, hell her Twitter feed proved that. Looking at how they met and the promos where each time it's Heather confronting Bethenny for something she felt was wrong, you know Bethenny is going to eat her ass up and I can't wait! LOVE Dorinda, Carole is enjoyable this season, Sonja is as much a mess as ever, but more interesting now that she doesn't have Ramona on her side.

Ugh! I wanted it a little sooner like Mid-May. I wonder when we'll get pictures and a trailer. I WANT IT NOW!!!! In other news, I read an article that said a former RHONY housewife is returning and that we'll know who it is by the end of tonights episode. It also said that she didn't get along with a current wife and that when they reunite it isn't very pleasant in episode 3. I think it's obviously Kelly, but the website was trying to hype it up like it might be Jill, Alex or Aviva. I am going to confidently say it is Kelly.

If they're filming this, then it has to be coming soon. Perhaps with New Jersey out of the picture they'll air it on Sundays when ATL is done? Or maybe they'll do Married To Medicine to replace RHOA, but it can't come anywhere near holding that lead in.

Jeans is filming but I imagne she'll just be a Friend this season.

Also Don't Be Tardy and Manzo'd With Children were renewed.

Bravo officially announced the Nene and Kim soon off today. Also a Houston spin-off of Married To Medicine and Ladies of Dallas. Should be interesting to finally have two pseudo-housewives series in Texas finally.

Jill is a moron because even Andy said he to told her not to make that her story. He said it was a terrible idea. Considering he wants and needs drama for these shows, if he says its a bad idea LISTEN! But Jill was too cocky and we see what happened.

Lisa Rinna said she stands behind her tweets about Kim, even though she deleted them to end the drama. I can understand how she started to backtrack. She apologized and Kim said not to bring it up again so she intended to keep her mouth shut. At the dinner it became obvious Kim is just not at a mental level to have a discussion with anyone, so why would she engage her by saying what Brandi said and risk another Kim explosion? I just hope going forward she completely cuts Kim off. No more wushu washy behavior. Just be done with her and tell her to !@#$%^&*] off whenever she approaches you.

Eileen OWNED this episode! She was so smart and articulate in every interaction this week. I loved how on the boat ride she didn't let ANYTHING slide and had perfect recollection. She is a brilliant choice for a housewife. Whoever decided to cast her deserves a medal.

I would do Cynthia, Kandi, Marlo, Claudia, Kenya with Victoria Rowell as the new wife. Keep Nene as a friend and Sheree as a friend. They need to look at OC and not do too much which is why is have Rowell as the only true newbie since Marlo knows the game. It won't happen though. They're going to continue ruining RHOA.

There are ENDLESS things Kim needs to apologize for over the five seasons, but focusing on this season she has never apologized to Lisa R or Eileen for Poker Night and she should. In this case, she was completely in the wrong at the dinner table. Lisa Rinna has apologized several times including offering a very sincere apology that night. She didn't bring it up, Yolanda did and nobody brought it up in an inappropriate manner. She admitted she over-stepped her boundaries and apologized and gave reasons for why she reacted the way she did. It was as if Kim wasn't even listening based on her reaction. Not only that, but the way Lisa Rinna and Eileen have handled Kim has been great compared to how housewives typically deal with issues. They both went to her directly. They weren't gossiping and snickering behind her back. If anything, they would ask friends (and family, Kyle) about the situation, but they both made it clear they were going to speak to Kim and they did. Especially Lisa Rinna. Nobody was talking behind her back and lying except for Brandi who didn't tell Kim how she insinuated Kim tried to commit suicide and relapsed. This is the first time people have actually acknowledged Kim's problems and strange behaviors and not ignored them because she's Kyle's sister and they're friends with Kyle. Kim is NOT sober, hasn't been sober and she is NOT an alcoholic. They need to give up on that lie. She is a DRUG ADDICT. Anybody with a brain can see that. I await the dragging at the reunion.

Kim has never accepted responsibility for anything in five seasons. Regardless of what she ever does she has an excuse and then is demanding an apology for whatever she feels was done to her. She's a nasty person who uses her addiction as a shield from criticism and accountability. I'm happy these Soap Queens are dragging her ass. I want them to pull every follicle of hair out of her head on the reunion. Leave her looking like Tommy from Rugrats with her sunburned ass.

Kim ain't no damn alcoholic. That's another thing they use to soften the blow for her. It's obvious her ass is on something much harder.

I didn't expect the execution to be the way it was. Lisa completely opened herself up and gave background for her concern and she apologized AGAIN and was trying to move on. I didn't expect THAT to cause the confrontation. Kim has always been a completely nasty monster who has gotten a pass time and time again from these women for YEARS. This was just her exploding at another level and finally people weren't afraid to call her out. I hope for the first time this is a reunion where people don't coddle her and actually go in and let have. If she claims to be sober then she can own up to her behavior and take it. And I'm sorry but she is NOT sober. This is season 2 all over again. She is a hot ass mess and she is nothing like she was last season. I also think her level of defense is up because she doesn't like being called out. Nobody has been gossiping about her or being mean, they've all gone directly to her face and asked her. Simply asking her is enough to cause her to go crazy because she knows she's full of it. I hope the final episodes are an absolute dragging of Kim! Then I need them to scalp her at the reunion. I've been ready for this for years!!!

I loved when Lydia asked what Pettifluer thought of her And Pettifluer basically said she though she was an idiot. I love that she is open and honest and will truly speak her mind to your face. I also feel like Janet is enjoyable despite being so messy. I'm glad she's more open about her ways this season. She seems majorly pressed.

Looking at that cast photo, I still can't believe RHOA hasn't had one since season 5. Ridiculous! Melbourne had good ones this year as we'll. the first two episodes of that show were good, especially episode two. Pettifluer is to die for!

Some of the best seasons have had 8 housewives, they just don't make they all official housewives. This is the first year they were honest and actually made them all housewives.
