Did she immediately go to GH when she left GL? I always just assumed she was jumping off a sinking ship.

Did they mention the reboot at all? Considering it's Alan who is always in PR mode, I can see him not mentioning it since they haven't officially announced anything new. He seems so against breaking any type of news. Also, I was wondering, does anybody know if Liza Huber and Susan are still close? I ask because I notice they never seem to mention each other on instagram, which could mean nothing, but I found odd. I don't even think they follow each other. Both have very family focused instagrams so it's odd a mother/daughter wouldn't be included with all the other family pictures.

Ironically enough, Eboni mentioned on her last WWHL appearance that he’d and Heather are now friends and talk regularly. RHOBH: This Erika story about Tom and the car was SO ridiculous that I’m not surprised the women are questioning her like they are. Sutton said that’s what started her questioning things because she truly was confused and didn’t know what was going on. I happen to believe her.

Now that’s how you do a mid season trailer! That has me salivating for the rest of the season!!! Also, Garcelle *demolished* poor Dorit! No wonder she’s so mad at her lol! I didn’t expect any shocks, but the Erika stuff did surprise me. I didn’t expect Dorit and Kyle to be so vocal against her, I expected it to be Garcelle and Sutton only. This showed us just enough to intrigue me. This just may be their best season since season 5!

She basically giggled about Bershan with Luann, who she was just accusing of being a white supremacist. I feel like Eboni doesn’t like Bershan and was happy to see her screw up. This whole fight was a damn mess. We saw Sonja start it and when telling the girls what happened, Leah completely lied and made it seem like Bershan start it. I’m just furious after watching this.

Okay…that fight made me uncomfortable. I also feel like it was edited down to a flashback to protect Sonja. So Bershan is big and aggressive and that’s why Sonja had to jump into her face? Bershan has to apologize to her?! Eboni siding with the white girls over Bershan after everything she’s said? That was ugly. I do not think what Bershan did merited Sonja going off like she did. Yes Bershan messed up, but the escalation was wrong and steeped in racism. It’s funny that Eboni has been trying to make something out of nothing all season and now something offensive really DID happen and Bershan took all the blame and had no support. I’m not crazy about that.

I’ll admit, even though it isn’t great, it’s my most anticipated HW show every week. I can admit RHOP and RHOBH are better overall, but I still feel like the ladies always deliver moments that make it worth it for me. New York has always been my favorite though.

@VirginiaHamiltonWendy’s instant dislike of Mia reminds me of Nene with Kandi on RHOA S2. It’s literally out of nowhere and Mia did nothing to her lol. Such a random feud! I must say Wendy from the moment she was first announced is nothing like I expected. She has a messy side to her, which I do like because that makes a great HW.

This was sad to watch…nothing was there. They could’ve kept this mid season trailer lol

Even without the earrings this is in poor taste, but with it? Unconscionable. I just wish we could hear her in a meeting with her lawyers because I can’t see them advising her that this is helpful. She hits Twitter usually about once a week with this mess, but of course won’t do an interview because she wants to control the narrative.

Also, people have given her the benefit of the doubt because due to the ongoing lawsuits she may or may not be able to talk about certain things, but she IS talking on Twitter and the show, she just isn't saying anything that would make you particularly sympathetic towards her. Does anybody think it was a good idea for her to post a picture wearing earrings that said "Widows and Orphans?" Like what the hell? She's mocking them. This tweet I also found particularly egregious and was glad to see Ronald Richards response: It almost feels like she doesn't have a lawyer because I can't imagine any good lawyer telling her that the statements she keeps making on social media are helping her case.

Didn't they cancel Peyton Place for this? That move seems so short sighted. I feel like had they given Return To Peyton Place another year it could've picked up.

Having seen Carlivati's work on OLTL, DAYS and GH, I think B&B would be his best work. I often fantasize about people writing for B&B. Brad Bell is creatively dead and that show will only be truly good when someone takes over. With Carlivati in particular, he'd shine by opening up the canvas. He loves delving into the history of a show and bringing people back, even if it's short term so I feel with him we'd get to see our favorite characters popping in. We'd have gay characters like you mentioned, but also the show would get it's sex appeal back and we'd have villain's and femme fatales, mysteries, comedy and the other stuff you expect on a show like this set in the fashion world. Brad Bell's writing is so bad I'd accept almost anyone taking over if I'm being real.

But she's literally in court, present day, fighting to prevent some of the victims from getting settlements so she can keep the money for herself. I just don't see how anybody can have sympathy for her. Even if she didn't know, she knows now and is still refusing to work with the legal system in any way. That doesn't sound like a person who is innocent.

@FrenchBug82Erika is in court fighting to keep the victims from getting Tom’s money so she can get it. I don’t buy anything she’s selling. She also knew about this since 2019 but is claiming on camera this was all a surprise to her. It’s hard for me to feel any sympathy for her when I’ve read the court documents and they prove she’s just plain lying.

Honestly, was she? If we look back at what Bershan said that got the women upset, it was incredibly tame. Has no one ever been out and told their friends they were boring or acting like old ladies? I know I’ve done that before and we’ve even seen that on this franchise before. I think she legit was trying to lighten the mood and get them to start having fun, but the reaction to her was so harsh that it kicked off. I blame Luann and Sonja more than I do Bershan. Bershan said sometime fairly tame, that Leah has been saying for two seasons and they blew up on her. The reaction to Bershan was over the top and made me side eye them. Nothing she said was more outrageous than things Ramona, Sonja, Dorinda or Luann have said in group settings. I also was disgusted in the glee Eboni took in Bershan messing up, when she’ll defend Leah for anything. She is as fake as press on nails.

Despite rumors that Tamra would only be back at the end of the season, she just confirmed she’s back filming! It’s week one so it’s very possible she’ll be a HW if she likely is going to film the entire season.

@CatNo show has a cast as calculated as RHONY. Historically they’ve gone to great lengths to ice cast members out and they use the press like a deadly weapon, so I definitely think the cast is behind the scenes doing all sorts of things to try and get what they want. I think it’s pretty obvious Leah and Eboni have a pact and won’t say anything negative about the other. From watching it does seem like they’re making an effort to get Ramona to screw up so she can leave. They’re the young girls on the block so if they’re successful and can build popularity they could easily have become the new stars and end up with multiple years on the show. Unfortunately it hasn’t worked out for them. RHOA tea:

This article has more details and it’s clear one of their 5 production sources is Luann lol. I honestly wouldn’t be surprised if this has some truth to it even RHOA is on a longer delay than usual. We know RHOC took time off to get things right as well and so has Dallas. The only shows I don’t expect to be hit with a delay are Salt Lake City, Beverly Hills and Potomac. I would be willing to be anything that Bravo is doing everything in their power to convince Bethenny to return. If they can get her back that will be the biggest deciding factor on next seasons cast.

Bershan was hilarious tonight! She was giving me Dorinda teas tonight. That was just a hot mess in every way and I loved it! She’s right! They have been boring. She wanted to have fun and while she didn’t accomplish that, she definitely brought things to life. Next week looks insane! Sonja, Ramona and Bershan are my MVPs this season.

I don’t want to scare anybody or jinx us by mentioning his name, but am I the only one worried Peter is still alive? When Liz and Finn were talking about moving the body on Friday it startled me because I assumed that was taken care of when I wasn’t paying attention. He’s been down there so long that it’s screaming for a “missing body” scenario when they finally get to dealing with it. I hope that isn’t the case, but I’m getting worried by how long they’re dragging this mess out.

I completely disagree. The issues with B&B are a Brad Bell thing. Having watched so many half hour soaps past and present (the British ones), the half hour format is fine and you can tell multiple storylines with a decent sized cast. B&B is the only half hour soap outside of the 1960s that I've seen with such a narrow focus. This is why I long to see Brad find something better to do and let someone else control B&B. They've created such a good canvas of characters. I'd love to see a writer who is willing to write multiple stories for multiple characters. There's *so* much they could be doing, but he's been in auto pilot for years.

Once again a perfect debut for Potomac! This was refreshing and you know it's going to be a great season! Mia was the pefect new addition and she seemed to fit right in. I feel like you could definitely see Wendy judging her based on her looks and husband and I look forward to seeing where that goes. I feel like everybody did their job here and I loved the lack of Candiace. I'm glad our ladies are back. It's nice to have another good HW show to pair with Beverly Hills while New York goes through their growing pains.

I do wonder how long the character of Jill would’ve lasted on Y&R had Brenda Dickson stayed. She still looks great, but her style of acting and the quality of it I can’t even see lasting into the 90s. I either see her being written out or having a vastly different trajectory.

This. It kills me seeing people say that about Bershan when on her social media she *only* seems to have black friends. There’s this narrative that she’s a “safe” black cast member and that is unfair. People like Bershan because she has an interesting personality and is fun.
