I think having a middle class family come on in the final year was a good idea...to contrast with the Capwells. I just don't think the Walkers were properly integrated with the cast despite the parents knowing Cruz and Santana back in high school. I also think Wanda DeJesus was a good actress, but wasn't Santana...maybe she could have played another Andrade daughter?

Ah...my favorite Frannie

Heather is too mature for the show. I miss her and Ramona's season 5 conflicts. Memories

Leah needs to look up the word Karen because I think she'd find her photo by the word. I miss Turtle Time and watching housewives to forget real life...not be in some warped Afterschool Special

It took years for Punky Brewster to stream..so I have faith on some of the following: Knots Landing Sisters St Elsewhere Thirtysomething

I do admit I miss Tamra....she could be funny, show occasional moments of being human, and effortlessly stirred the pot. But let's drop Brownie please

I don't remember...how did B&B explain all the weird stuff that happened over at Y & R in 2005 and after? Was it Sheila or a copy cat?

She's had a long lasting career spanning about 50 years so why not add soap opera acting to her list of endeavors

Mari Jo was a perfect example of a grey character...neither all good or all bad. It was a stock character brought to life by Diana Barton. Making her crazy seemed out of character...but I loved that she managed to find the only way to shut up the bug...keeping her drugged. Brenda's Ashley should have been her rival as opposed to Luan.

I actually liked Luann wasn't fired after season 4 because she was on an island without her mean girl group. And Carole and Heather called her out on her pot stirring....and Luann had to play nice. I miss Carole for one reason..and that is the way she effortlessly would drag Luann...she did it better than Bethenny ever did. @DaytimeFanI think Crystal is a mean girl..but is better at hiding it than Kyle. She's also a snob...and lacks the vulnerability and eagerness of Tiffany from Dallas. @TaoboiI can see why Dallas is on the bench...after the Westcott Twitter drama..and Tiffany wanting to sue them....I can see Bravo assessing what direction to go in. With Kameron and Brandi being problematic...and Kary's toxic ways....I'm sure the show is figuring out the casting and where to go with things

I had hoped the show would have had Annie be like Sonni...someone who got better after being crazy..and leave town for a new life. Sonni had redeemed herself, and some strong good bye scenes with characters before leaving...with a final scene questioning if she was ok or not truly. Annie could have had a similar situation with the door open to a return down the line..but left town with some dignity

Sutton is a train wreck and I think she's in over her head with this troop. Crystal is a wolf in sheep's clothing. I get bully vibes from her Kathy is like Kim with the quirkiness..minus the anger and aggression. If that makes sense.

Luann has always been this way...she did it to Alex back in season 4 for instance. Now Alex is happily living her best life while Luann is a less delusional version of Sonja. Karma is a wonderful thing

Luann vs Eboni...well matched verbal sparring. Both are more alike than either admit. Both think highly of themselves, both act superior, and both like to dictate how others act. Luann is a classist...she still thinks she's a countess. She and Sonja are alike in that delusion. Luann of last night was Luann season 4 of Morocco era. She was a bitch to Alex..and karma has come and her name is Eboni. Heather > Leah And I want to watch the Housewives have fun, bicker and try to enjoy life...I'm not in the mood for a 'Very Special Episode'...though I did get a kick out of Eboni fishing in scenes for next week.

So leah vs Heather is next week..and I wonder if Leah understands that she's more of a Karen than Heather is

How is Jen renting different from Sheree's air mattress adventures and Brandi's rental roulette?

I can believe Marland sketched out Carly..but she would have lacked fire and personality if Marland wrote her.

The first few years had Amy/Brick, Mason/Mary, and the CC/Sophia will they won't they...to balance out Eden/Cruz. I do agree by 1988...the show became Cruz/Eden only.

Poor Kyle...overshadowed by another sister. Sutton vs Crystal..interested to see where this goes. Crystal seems sweet, but it's the sweet ones you have to watch out for. So jury duty is out for me on her right now.

Leah is missing the snappy one liners of Bethenny and the nurturing confidence of Heather. She knows she'll never measure up. @Taoboiif Leah is like this with Heather..imagine what she would be like if Bethenny came for a visit lol. Heather, unlike Bethenny and Leah, has confidence and I can see why she bailed.

Ashley shouldn't be a housewife...downgrade her to friend status. Nice to see Karen and Gizelle carry on their frienimie vibe..and I hope Gizelle is a good friend to Robyn. And Robyn continues the tradition of a new hair style per season. Gizelle is the Tamra of Potomac. And I think the trailer is trying to establish Potomac like a Desperate housewives Wisteria Lane?

I think Laken being cast with Julie Ronnie...doomed the long term potential of the character. I actually think melissa brennan/Reeves should have been Laken. She basically played a Laken esque character on Days...and she had a good rapport with the actor playing Warren.

Rhobh: They're so insincere...it's why I've grown cold to them years ago. Kathy kind of has Kim's quirkiness mixed with Kyle's all about how it looks. Neither have Kim's ability to get down and dirty verbally. Garcelle calling out Rinna made me miss Kim...the only one to truly call out Rinna effectively. Jury's out on Crystal... need 3 episodes to make my decision on if I like her or not. Why is Erika there? Sutton has better taste than Kyle lol NJ: Jennifer needs to be careful because she could veer from fun shade and call outs to viciousness. Jennifer vs Pigtails is what I live for. Was Jackie called back for next season cause of her hubby? If so, she better reward him with a you know what 😀

I would have thought Taylor's meltdown to Camille would be way higher than 100....hello...it's a meme lol

I hope there is more fun and less education...and I hope Eboni is receptive to learning from these women (i.e. how selfishness can lead you down a Ramona/Sonja path, etc).
