The latest episode of RHOM was a classic. Only thing I HATE is Elaine/James. He seems so desperate for screentime and the way he attacks Marysol seems so aggressive.I LOVED the dinner party! Elsa owned this episode and Ana is back on my radar now. I also must say how GORGEOUS these women are. I've said it before,b ut their style is flawless. Joanna and Adriana looked better than they have all season. Karent had her best look of the season. Marysol always picks strong clothes. Ana's look was different, but conservative and she pulled it off. Lea was simple and gorgeous in black as well. The best dressed though, would have to be Elsa. She looked FIERCE in her party outfit. I've been re-watching RHONY and it's so interesting seeing how natural the show is. It took 4 episodes for Alex to meet LuAnn and she interacted with other wives starting with episode 3! These days they'd create any number of "events" for the ladies to immediately meet up at. Here we get to see their true lives before we see their friendships develop. It's also interesting being able to see everybody's REAL friends hanging out with them, prior to the girls becoming a group. This is a VERY strong first season and the chemistry is very strong. I remember Jill not being as toxic in season one, but you definitely see the signs of whats to come. Her treatment of Alex from day one is very rude. It's obvious she doesn't like Alex because of her lack of money and status. Then she seemed upset that LuAnn liked Alex in the beginning. Jill's feud with Ramona is also odd. Jill admits she doesn't run in the same circles as Ramona, but is upset that Ramona didn't invite her to a dinner party. She THEN drives by the house to see if LuAnn went! That is so stalker crazy. Then to run out of the Luca Luca show because she has to sit behind Ramona. She's such a viper. It's nice getting to see the ladies before they became so polished. I'm going to re-watch ATL and New Jersey's first seasons as well. For Jersey I know I won't survive more than the first season, but I look forward to re-living ATL and NYC's entire runs.

I got to see her in Houston and this was truly one of the best concerts I've ever seen. This was by far her best tour. It flowed well and the setlist was pretty much perfect. I only wish she'd actually sung more of She's Not Me as it's one of her stronger tracks from Hard Candy. I definitely think anybody who can go see Madonna needs to do it at least once.

VANDERPUMP RULES: Premieres January 7th!! Supertrailer: http://www.bravotv.c...anderpump-rules Lisa is just owning Bravo. These ladies are going to be sick lol. Can someone help me with Taylor? What happened to her? She looks so much worse. Her lips look bad, her face looks puffy and she looks like she has a bad spray tan. She looks kinda monstrous. How can she afford this plastic surgery if she's broke, has several law suits and has no job?

I think there might be a chance for Caroline returning as well. I know unlike Kathy, they did offer her a contract. Plus when Caroline was on WWHL she was talking about mending fences with Teresa, which would obviously be her next storyline. I don't think Bravo will just let her go, they'll try to keep her around.

New York is the series I think makes most sense for a black housewife, but I do recall an article where several black women were offered spots on Beverly Hills (including Lela Rochon), but they all turned the show down.

New Jersey needed a revamp so I'm really interested in seeing how it's next season goes. I even think the most recent season needed a revamp and could've been saved by adding at least ONE new person so there would be a chance of a new storyline other than the extreme focus on Teresa vs Everyone. Next season Jacquline and Melissa need a true story instead of being focused on Teresa. IMO that's the sign of a boring housewife, when they spend all their time hating.

Okay I've continued watching and am around the beginning of October. It's watchable, but I still don't think the show is very good. Some strong actors are holding it up, but the younger characters don't have a patch on the Bryan Kirkwood people. I do enjoy Brendan and at least what I've seen so far doesn't seem to glorify him. I'm interested in seeing where his relationship with Cheryl goes now that she knows he's a murderer. As long as they don't put him back with Ste (even for a one night stand), I can deal with their relationship. After his accident, it's obvious Ste would come running to his side, but I thought Ste came off a bit sad. Obviously he loves Brendan, but he came off very much like a battered woman who knows it's wrong, but it's hard to break ties. I found it an interesting story at this point. The McQueen's seem totally dead. Who is Phoebe and why is she with Jacqui? I hate her and I don't like what's become of Jacqui. She's so mismatched with Rhys and the fued with Cindy doesn't really work since they're fighting over a guy neither should be with. Mercedes is a total disaster. Stabbing herself?! What was the thought behind that? Mitzeee a character that has always failed in execution. Riley is dull as dishwater and I can't wait until he dies. His family is one of the worst in Hollyoaks history. Bart McQueen is another one who has to go. I wish Michaela was still around as I feel there is hope for that character. What did she do her most recent return? And where is Carmel? They keep referring to talking to her on the phone, but I haven't seen her. There is a character named Ally that I can't stand, but I did enjoy George more than I did when he first arrived. He seems cuter as well. I LOVE Callum from what I've seen. Other than that, the younger characters mostly suck. The show doesn't seem hopeless at the moment, but it needs a lot of help to be viable.

I think Thursdays are just a bad night period, but the first Thursday episode after the Sunday airing had good ratings. Overall, had it launched it's first episode after New Jersey, we wouldn't be having this problem. The series would've had Beverly Hills size ratings by the time of the slap episode. Bravo botched the scheduling with this season terribly. Overall, the network is making lots of poor decisions. Top Chef usually gets between 2-3 million viewers and I think this season premiered with less than 1 million viewers. They need to can whoever is promoting and scheduling these shows because many are good shows. I just finished catching up and as much as I love it, Miami was a total dud this week. I almost fell asleep. I also didn't enjoy the dinner at Alexia's. The stuff with Karent is beginning to grate because as others have said, she hasn't done enough to merit the level of hatred. Joanna is unwatchable and a disgusting person to me. Ana is putting me to sleep at this point and because nobody there knows what really happened, Adrianna ends up looking bad as well. The only thing I enjoyed was Lea and Lisa's storylines. They need to figure out a way to give us more Marysol. I love her as well. Beverly Hills was good this week, but I did think there was too much Taylor and not enough Lisa (or Brandi). I don't understand why, even going into next week, Taylor keeps bringing up a comment Brandi made that she didn't hear. She's not even repeating it correctly and everyone she's brought it up to has blown it off. She is making herself look like and idiot and she can't use the drunk excuse (which I'm sure is coming for next week) when she started this sober. Yes she doesn't like Brandi and Brandi doesn't like her, but this isn't the way to get payback. She's such a loser.

See, I haven't watched yet, but I doubt I would consider it boring. I feel like New York and Beverly Hills are more natural shows and you have to watch the progression throughout the season to make a judgement. The ladies are more mature and have stronger relationships (or attempt to) so you aren't going to have nonstop drama from the beginning. I prefer a housewives series like that.

Before you talk about the hole between my legs, measure yours! For that alone she has my support. And I don't think she was that scripted. She had a couple zingers, but overall she was dropping gems left and right. The conversation was too crazy to be scripted. No matter what the ladies threw at her, she had a response and I LOVED it.

Marlo was far from basic. She always knew the right thing to say to those ladies and get them worked up without breaking a sweat. I just loved everything about her. I also feel she gave the best reunion performance in Atlanta history. She was dropping gems left and right and looked FABULOUS! When Kandi tried to throw shade her response was, "Well you just moved out of your old ass house. I had to take my heels off to keep from touching the ceiling." Kandi exploded obviously lol. She was just on point. Or when Andy asked her about telling the girls to "check my charges" and she responded by saying she's still working on her etiquette. I don't understand how anyone can not love Marlo. She fit in so well. And she's still friends with these ladies. I've seen lots of tweets and appearances with Nene, Kandi and Cynthia.

I felt conflicted about Nene's olive branch. From the way I've seen it, it always seems to be Nene's fault when their relationship breaks down. Either she'll be making fun of Kim and being two faced, or she'll be physically attacking Kim. Based on that I can see why Kim might not want to jump back into a friendship. I don't think either has treated each other too bad either last season or the reunion, they just aren't friends anymore. I can accept that. As for Porsha, I'm not looking forward to her AT ALL. She's not at the level you need to be to be an Atlanta housewife. This is the #1 show on Bravo and there are so many other people that would've worked better. The preview clip for her on Bravo shows her and Kenya arguing IN HER FIRST EPISODE. How is that even possible? In one episode you meet someone, offend them and are already throwing down? Plus her voice is annoying and the things she's saying are so basic. She doesn't have what it takes I can already tell. I hope she enjoys her one season. Kenya is not much better, but by bringing the drama she might squeeze out a second season. One thing that will go down in history as the biggest casting mistake in Real Housewives history: Not giving Marlo Hampton a peach. I'm sorry, she was perfect. She had money, was so fabulous to look at and she was in on the joke like the others. She wasn't a basic bitch like Kenya and Porsha. She could read and throw shade for days.

I've seen it, but I can't really tell what is happening lol. It is too fast.

The fight in the promos looks more like Porsha and Kenya, with Nene trying to break it up. I don't think anybody is crazy enough to try and fight Nene.

How is Kim lying? She's not the one who said she quit because of a fight, I thought that was what Wendy Williams reported? Kim hasn't announced an exit to my knowledge.

The feud seems clearly Adrienne's fault. She created these issues and has kept them going, not only with her horrible behavior at the reunion, but now inviting everyone except Lisa to Las Vegas, then playing the victim when she didn't get the Villa Blanca invite. SHE needs to apologize, but she wants to sweep everything under the rug and end up on top. Plus she's suing Brandi which I don't like. To quote the fabulous Yolanda, "Who is Adrienne Maloof in this world?" Absolutely nobody. A joke. Adrienne, Kyle and Taylor do nothing for me.

There were rumors in the press that get into a physical fight, but that hasn't even been hinted in any previews and it doesn't seem in character for those two. Whatever the reason for Kim's exit, we should know soon. Porsha premieres in the third episode, so I predict Kim's story will be over within two or three episodes. I think the plan for Kim is to have her spin-off and she'll be back full time next season. ETA: Just finished BH and I LOVED Kathy. She was so sweet and actually worked well with Kim. They had a more interesting relationship than Kyle/Kim, which has always seemed more negative. I wish Kathy were a full time wife so I could see how she handles Kyle. Kyle is such a nasty piece of work for me. Brandi's house didn't bother me. She seemed kinda embarrassed when Lisa came, but at least she has a nice house and is living within her means, even with the show and what it could demand. She came off really well in the premiere. So did Yolanda. She was so sweet and has a beautiful accent.

Lisa explained in her blog that she is still not speaking to Adrianne because Adrianne never contacted her to mend fences. Adrianne came off VERY poorly during that reunion and it was her fault so she should've apologized. Let's not forget, she only backed down from attacking Lisa once Lisa said her claims were slanderous. She wasn't genuine then and she isn't now. Lisa said she spoke to Kyle and they mended fences off screen. Adrianne also had a party in Las Vegas the week before filming began and invited everyone EXCEPT Lisa. Considering all of that, why would she invite Adrianne? Makes no sense. Unfortunately my laptop has been in the hospital so I haven't seen the most recent ATL, BH or MIA episodes, but hopefully today I can watch them so I can get back to dishing with you guys!

Once again I'm trying to watch the show and like last year, I decided to start with Hollyoaks Later and the same week of the main show. So far I've made it through one episode of each and it was painfully bad. The worst I've ever seen it. It's possible this was an off episode, but dayum. And what was up with all the music on Hollyoaks Later? I understand they were trying to be artistic, but that was painful and came off very amatuerish. I'm going to try and survive this week, but the show is HORRIFIC from the looks of it.

They reused Taylor's tagline from the original screeners for season two. They changed it after Russell died as it seened insensitive. I'm surprised they brought it back. It does fit her though, a total famewhore and grifter.

I didn't even notice Portia wasn't in that opening LOL! I wonder how things would be if they could've convinced Toya Wright to join the cast. She was offered a spot, but turned them down because unlike her shows on vh1 & BET, she wouldn't have any control over how she's portrayed. Of all of Kandi's friends, I think Rasheeda would've been a better fit on this show with her family issues. She sticks out on Love and Hip Hop, but I think she'd be more interesting as a housewife.

I can't wait to see tonights Miami episode! Last week Joanna said that Elsa was "a fcuking devil bitch, burn in hell" and Elsa wasn't even there! I wonder how she will treat Elsa since they're in a scene together this week. She is a sick woman. I can't wait to see how far she continues to go.

LOL I love 4Minute, but she sucked in Wonder Girls, especially compared to Yoobin. I think the current Wonder Girls lineup is the most perfect one. And LOL at me completely missing your earlier Wonder Girls post! IDK how I missed that! ON ANOTHER NOTE: Someone tell me this isn't perfection!

I'll start with the bad--Joanna. You KNOW something is wrong when Marta is the voice of reason and is telling you that you're acting crazy lol! I LOVE Marta, but I expected to Love Joanna and hate Marta. Joanna is very immature for 33, which she proved in the way of handling Marysol's fur. She should've tried to have a conversation with Marysol and explain how she feels and hope to change her mind, not attack her for wearing it. That's going to make a person defensive and NOT want to change. Plus, what the HELL does Elsa have to do with it and why is Joanna calling her the devil? She's a vile woman! Then the fight with Adriana was also Joanna's fault. I found Adriana and Karent's conversation completely calm, even when Adriana pulled out the article. It only escalated when Joanna and Ramain got involved. Plus when Adrianna walked away, Joanna grabbed her arm and was STILL holding it when she got slapped. She deserved to get slapped AND beat down with that broom. Now onto the other ladies... Marysol has been an ABSOLUTE delight this season. Her scenes are light-hearted and fun and I don't get a mean spirited vibe from her. I find her work scenes interesting when we get them as well. I just want MORE Marysol. Lea is entertaining and I love her personality, but I'm not a fan of James/Elaine. He serves his purpose, but Lea will need to dump him soon enough. Lisa is a bit dumb, but she's endearing and entertaining. My only complaint is that she looks shockingly old for a 29 year old. She'd be perfection if she didn't mess up her face. I wonder how she's going to look by the time she's really 40. Now onto Karent, the ultimate [!@#$%^&*] stirrer. I LOVE HER! She's a hot mess. She drops these bombs with various people, then smiles and keeps it moving and I LOVE that. She won't admit it, but I think she knows what she's doing and is having fun with it. I like that about her. I can't wait for her reunion performance.

How yall gonna have a K-Pop thread and not mention the Wonder Girls?! They are perfection! I hated HyunA in the group though and was so happy when Yoobin replaced her.
