5 episodes!

It's really easy to watch now, since Tami is the only one worth focusing on. She is HILARIOUS this season. Another weird thing is that they haven't even done one scene in Miami. There is already a Basketball Wives LA, yet this show takes place mostly in LA with some quick trips to New York. Perhaps it would be more interesting if they merged some of the LA wives into this show. There aren't enough people to make things happen, which is probably why they're bringing back Kenya mid-season.

Kim needs to be back full-time. Kim brings ratings, so does Sheree, but I think Kim has more to offer right now than Phaedra, Porsha, Sheree or Kenya.

This season Shaunie is back to season one SHaunie when she was an actual cast member and had to get in the dirt (with Gloria at the time). She is so messy and she is a total hater. I don't understand why she didn't apologize for a possible misunderstanding with Tami and move on. Instead, she keeps making an issue out of it, which is pissing Tami off. Evelyn and Shaunie haven't changed one bit, despite their proclamations.

I'm so disappointed in Tami! Real growth would've been beating Evelyn AND Shaunie's ass! I didn't understand why Evelyn was calling Tami a bitch and throwing her hands up when she wasn't even involved in the discussion. This season is all about Tasha and Tami for me. I can't watch Evelyn anymore. She is boring and I'm so over hearing about Chad.

"You ain't gonna come up in here and check ME!" The I Dream of Nene promo was EVERYTHING!!!!!! I cannot wait for that [!@#$%^&*]! It is clearly going to make up for the horrible season 5 of RHOA! I almost fainted by the time Jill Zarin hit the screen. I just cannot wait for this!

It's also worth noting that they were hanging out after ANDY tweeted Marlo thanking her for her Christmas card. She wasn't trolling for his attention. She's been very professional about the way Bravo snubbed her after the ratings success she brought to season 4. Perhaps he saw I Dream of Nene and saw what a star she is. As it stands, I don't think she'll be appearing on the new season of RHOA (at least not as a regular), which is a horrible missed opportunity. I haven't watched this yet (I'm at work), but here's the trailer for I Dream of Nene: http://www.eonline.com/news/458702/i-dream-of-nene-the-wedding-first-look-watch-the-trailer-for-the-real-housewives-of-atlanta-spinoff?cmpid=tweol-manual

Alex would be perfect. Silex already returned to WWHL for a Halloween episode where they dressed up as Herman and Lily Munster. I believe that was just a few months after they were fired.

Danielle was asked back this season and she turned them down. I believe Andy has already commented on that.

Oh wow! I know very little about this show, but I'll be buying this. Any chance to buy something soap related (especially a complete series), I'll take it.

It's really a crapshoot which will come next since both Beverly Hills and New York are both filming at the same time. What is clear is that one will replace New Jersey and the other will replace Miami, with Atlanta coming next Spring. New Jersey should be done in October so it'll probably be a November premiere for whichever one they choose.

I'm not looking forward to that. Kenya's antics are too fake, which prevents the other ladies from developing interesting bonds with her. Phaedra is stupid for falling into her trap. This is why I wish Marlo was picked. She was entertaining and because she gets under everybody's skin (with the truth!), it's more interesting to watch. Imagine how much better season 5 would've been if Marlo were around when Kim got evicted. That would've been worth it alone.

Thanks to Bravo Andy's tweets, I now know there is an Alex McCord Onion Chopper: http://www.groupon.com/deals/gg-alex-mccord-onion-chopper-1 She's already sold 980 of them, which is almost $14,000 at the price she's selling them. That's not bad for a side hustle and there's no telling how many she's sold in other avenues. Their strong work ethic is another reason I've always loved Alex and Simon. Yes they weretrying a bit too hard in the beginning, but they were actually working for it, unlike so many other housewives with their scams.

Beverly Hills was TERRIBLE last season. TERRIBLE, including that wack ass reunion that nobody came to. It was a total mess. With New York, last season wasn't "exciting" , but I do think they had a strong narrative from beginning to end. I enjoyed watching it. I think every season of New York is good just because the storylines seem to flow so well from beginning to end. It doesn't feel choppy and manufactured like some of the other shows. These women know how to play the game.

Yeah, I'm still finding Miami boring this season. It's a very boring cast this year.

MIA isn't doing it for me this season either. It's the wrong combination of 5, which I suspected when they announced the cast. Even Marysol and Ana should still be FULLTIME housewives. Even if Marysol could've film as much (for the record she filmed full-time, like the first 2 seasons), you don't fire a popular housewife because her equally popular mother is too sick to appear. Having Ana full-time would give the show some spice. She had warm relationships with Joanna, Marysol and Alexia, so she could crossover both sides, plus she has the feud with Lea. She's a big glaring hole in this season. I loved the first episode with her being there, but now it's just kinda stalling.

Umm....I think you're thinking of Alex McCord's Herman Munster shoes...oh what, they're Louis Vuitton! :D Sorry, lol when you mentioned Alexia's gay husband it took me back to that classic scene.

I think Briana is trash. She may be right about certain things, but I still can't support her treatment of Vicki this season or last. It seems like she gets such glee from the pain she causes her mom. I didn't see her going to comfort Vicki when she broke down. I feel like in her hatred for Brooks and her love for her psycho husband she's forgotten about her mother and what feelings she might have.

I haven't watched episode two, but I am sad because Adriana has always been my favorite. I don't like that she's getting caught in these stupid ass lies. She could've easily moved on. There is no shame in her being married anyway. She should've owned it and move on. Make it a non story similar to how Marlo and Nene made their "beef" a non issue. Don't give into the producers storylines so easily. This could've been a banner year for Adriana, but I fear it'll end with a pile up.

It paid off for Tamra maybe LOL. I don't know where Gretchen can go next season. It'll certainly be interesting to see. If anything, her marriage to Slade is what seals the deal for her next season. Otherwise I think she'd be out.

This is the first season that I've ever enjoyed Gretchen at all. I liked her more as an outsider. I still say she made a HUGE mistake by becoming friends with Tamra. At the very least, she should've never given up her friendship with Alexis (who also had her best season IMO).

Wow! She's having twins?! That''s 6 kids. She better get her tubes tied. That is going to be expensive.

That New York reunion was so interesting to me. Much like the entire season, it was quiet and classy, but it had bite. It had substance. I know at the time most were disappointed, but I really had fun with that reunion. Season 5 worked because it has a strong narrative from beginning to end. It wasn't the most exciting, but it makes sense and I like that.

I thought season 2 looked stunning as well, so I'm sure they'll continue with future episodes. Miami went from being the worst produced show, to the very best.
