YAAAAAAAASSSSSSSSSSSS, LA DAME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! SHOW THEM HOW IT'S DONE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

NY First of all...HAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Oh my God! There were so many hilarious LOL moments. I'm glad I've saved this for the end of my day. Like I said above, these women give so much and we are still in the first few weeks of filming, too? Just awesome!!! From Sonja's love of dad bods to the look LuAnn gave Heather used the word 'apology' to Ramona being Ramona, it was good clean fun. Heck, even Eboni is getting into the rhythm of how the ladies fight and make up and then start up again per her conversation with Lu in aftermath of last week. And then...the buzzkill. Leah. Lord I agree with the rest of you. Last week I felt how Leah was feeling with her grandmother. But if Eboni has stuff with her grandmother and she is keeping a stiff upper lip, I would think Leah could be the same. Especially since she has support in Eboni and the girls. If it was too much, I feel that I would be going to my grandmother's side as well, not making excuses about 'there are so many family members there already.' And...? You push them out of the way or be as overdramatic as she was being in this episode. She was totally killing the vibe. THINGS I LIKED THE LOOKS. Oh my God. No one gives side-eye like the NY ladies were giving looks last night. Highlight was the look LuAnn gave when Heather used one simple word: apology. SONJA/EBONI. Sonja came across so well. But I'm loving how their friendship is growing. Eboni telling her that she is special to her face. Lord, I had tears. To see someone focus on Sonja. To care about Sonja. To make Sonja feel important. And now she wants to play matchmaker. I was like GUUUURRRRL!!! I was happy that Sonja was open to that since in the past Sonja always reacts badly. And I loved that Sonja was there for the Lu/Eboni conversation to make sure that people heard Eboni. Speaking of... HEATHER. And THIS is why she is needed. She has immediately brought a balance that has been missing. I feel like we have the fun drunks and the logical (but also fun) ladies again. And we are getting so much from that dynamic. All they are missing is Carole. lol. I felt though Sonja helped as well, Ramona and Lu would have easily dismissed her. God bless Heather was there to not be a pushover. Ramona and Lu had no choice but to hear the words coming out of Eboni's mouth. And Heather was there to moderate. I didn't like the politics talk, but I liked that Heather just brought a different flavor to everything. Who knows how things would have gone if she was not there. It felt thankfully organic. THE EBONI/LU CONVERSATION. Yeah, it does sound like it was a misunderstanding. While Lu was trying to be....well Lu...I was happy to see that the ladies got her to listen to what was being said. Meanwhile, I thought Eboni thought a good job explaining her point of view and how sometimes you get tired of having to explain to another race why something is off (same, girl). And I laughed at them making up because in that moment Eboni was truly in the fold of how these girls rolled (fight, makeup, fight again, makeup). RAMONA BEING...RAMONA. Of course. lol. But she came across very good this week. THINGS I DID NOT LIKE LEAH. Lord, girl. Shut up. I felt her pain last week. But this week she was just all over, her jealousy for Heather was very very apparent. And I was mad at Eboni for saying anything to her (did I miss that scene?) if it was going to turn into a Karen vs Karen screaming match. Girl, go and be with your grandmother if you are going to be this triggered. She was a total buzzkill. EBONI. Messy with that Leah/Heather mess. But I understand why. The TBC...so is that it? Next week sounds like Leah will up and leave with no physical drama between her and Heather. Things to make you go hmmm. Dorinda style cover-up?

BH Uneven. I guess that means that I'm more interested than I would like to admit to. And I liked that they were actually having fun. I liked the information about the history of the castle. I loved the mirrored swimming between Sutton and Ex Soap Opera Star. Oh and the SHHHHHHHHADE Production threw at Dorit was PRICELESS. I HOLLERED. And the BIGGER shade of connection Election Day to Erika's Filing...while true she did it that day...was delic. But on the other hand, in real time...that was pretty boring. Compared to NY who out of ONE trip got a load of episodes and moments because they are just such strong personalities. This is just so lackluster in comparison. Thank God there was still drama. From the 'from serious to just plain silly' drama of Sutton vs Crystal to the continuing saga of Garcelle vs that trick...I mean Ex Soap Opera Star to the cliffhanger at the end...there was enough moments to hold my interest. Not enough Kathy for me. I'll say that right now. KYLE. How interesting that she would having a talk about nudity and being naked only to have Crystal run to her to talk about the other night when Sutton walked in on her naked. Hmmmm...those producer hands are showing. Also of notice was seeing her face when Garcelle got into it with Ex Soap Opera Star again. You could already see the wheels turning...or was she glad she was not the target that time? ERIKA. Oh, look!!! The ice bitcas bonding. Probably just Erika looking for another ally when the *hit hit the fan which it did in the end with the start of the divorce. Funny how they all found out in a text message but what do I know about close friends? *shrugs* GARCELLE. Loved that she gave Sutton the benefit of the doubt when she was listening to Crystal talk while at the same time agree with what Crystal said. STAN her staying on Ex Soap Opera Star's neck. She thought she was going to be slick and compare last season to a story of her husband's friend being a rapist when Denise was not raping anyone. NO, BITCA. WHAT WE ARE NOT GONNA DO IS DRAG YOUR FRIEND UP. BUT YOU WANT TO SEE A DRAG...? And then she applied pressure to that trifling heffa and I was like YAAASSSS. Called her out for telling the story. Called her out for making the comparison to Denise. Called her out for Denise. Called her out for not minding her own business with Denise. Called her out for making herself the center of attention in Denise's drama. Called her out on being fake and phony. Warned her next time STFU and KEEP...IT...MOVING. It was brief but oh so good. She even made that ex soap opera star the butt of a joke with the swimming, but that could be considered a chin checked. So...I'll allow it. Speaking of... EX SOAP OPERA STAR Not since Penny HoldingandFold have I disliked someone on this show. But this trick? She thought that she was going to be connecting Denise to a rapist? And she is STILL teasing Denise secrets? That is really funny since Denise was ready to spill her tea at last year's ambush...I mean reunion. She suuuure likes to start stuff. And I loved Garcelle brought up her being the ringleader when she should have shut up. She got off easy. DORIT. The shade, the shade, the shade from Production and the side-eyes the ladies gave her when she lied was PRICELESS. Total comedic relief. SUTTON. Who would have thought that by the end of the episode, Sutton would be the sane one? But after being extra all last week, it was nice to see Sutton back in her quirky ness. I still feel her talk was more about she felt Kyle and Crystal were about to talk crap about Garcelle and she put her foot in her mouth. And I liked that she tried to fix the tension between her and Crystal. But Lord...childe...she has so much to learn and it's not all about her. But again...she did try to fix it. The irony of what she did and how she reacted only for the tables to turn was hilarious. So what is this feud...the battle of the social awkward housewives? CRYSTAL. I mean she spent all episode feeling some kind of way to Sutton. And then she turned around and started to act as crazy as she was saying Sutton was being and not letting it go and being EXTRA, TOO??? I mean...GUUUUURRRRRLLL!!!! I do feel this is going to turn into a silly feud and I'm for that. KATHY. Because it can't be said enough...NOT ENOUGH KATHY. LOL!!! Next week must be good cuz nothing has been released...not even a trailer.

BH To add on to tonight's show, allegedly Courts might have began looking into Erika's finances since she put in a gag order that got rejected.

But...Casey spoke nothing but truth so re: NJ. Yeah, it's the same thing they did with Danielle...it just took longer because Danielle is crazy, but no fool. I just hope it does not happen. Love some Jen...and Tequila Bill. hehe.

I think you are right. For years Joey has been the center husbands (second to Juicy Joe?) and now people want 'em some of Tequila Bill who can wine, dine, frak (5 children=a good level sex drive methinks), and respect you as a man. Meanwhile, what can Joey do? When he gets all bent out of shape over Melissa just even attempting to be independent. I feel the same about Couch Left targeting Jennifer. Jennifer HAS ALWAYS been a messy drunk so why is it an issue THIS year? Because she is coming off like a REAL (as in shows her life) firecracker. And guess what? It is more relatable and resonating and interesting in terms of a new culture than a book from a woman who cannot even get her kitchen redone quickly, a woman who 'owns' a boutique, or a lawyer who has issues about bjs. *shrugs* Sorry. And yes, they did that with Danielle as well. Hopefully, they are not able to turn Jen and Tre against each other. And I love that early reports say Dolores is playing peacemaker to get things back on track. My theory is that Marge wanted that rumor out and knew that Teresa would totally do something like that since Teresa forgives, but DOES NOT FORGET. And she thought that might lead to a downfall for Teresa. And she could have that top spot. She did not expect Teresa to wiggle out of it or that people might have Teresa's side. Not to mention she thought Teresa would be all alone since she managed to get rid of Danielle with Couch Left, but now Teresa has Jennifer who does not mind getting down and dirty with someone like Marge who like you said is the NJ's sniper from the side. And her true colors shined on through this season like none other so disappointed Jennifer did not manage to take her down. This time... THIS.

Yaaaaasss you were missed, B!!! 😜 NJ: I feel that Jennifer this year softened for sure. And allowed herself be 'in on the joke' so she can across as more Authentic than Couch Left. And they can stay hateful at her throwing out truth tea. Which is why she has to go. Lol. I looked forward to next season, BH: Terri DeMarco...who allegedly Kyle is working on coming back. LOL!!!! NY: Yeah, I haven't watched last night yet, but I heard so much about Season 4 LuAnn and not looking forward to it since like you said, she has really and truly progressed from where I started watching (Bethanny's return) and I know of her old self. smh. POTOMAC: So ready for La Dame. Then I guess I love LU then. But...I feel you described her perfectly.

@victoria foxton awww thank you. I know I'm going to feel beside myself next Sunday when I have nothing that I feel like watching. In hindsight, slight bit of rushing aside...this was a great final season. And I LOVE the image above. They all have come such a long way...

NJ COKEHEAD STRIKES AGAIN!!! Online sounded like he would try to deflect. I had even started to watch Part 2 of the Reunion, but I was just...bored...lol. I blamed it on switching jobs and adjusting to a new schedule. So here I was watching. Yeah, I don't get it. Part 1 was a firecracker. And this past season was easily the best one COVIDwise. But Part 2...meh. Jennifer hit Marge where it hurt. And if they had kept going, no time to recover with another lie. But alas. SMH. And Couch Left did recover. And then they were sitting there trying to silence Jennifer and pick on Teresa. That must be a strong alliance for Jackie to take Marge's side knowing what Jennifer was saying. And I didn't like that little smirk Marge gave to Jen when Plumber Man tried to lie. Okay, did lie. And her being her again tried to talk over him so he did not fumble his words. And then as usual Andy Cokehead had to focus on how hot Joe Gorga is. RME. THINGS I LIKED MARGE VS TERESA. I keep on saying it. And I keep on seeing it at reunions, but I do feel Marge really does not like Teresa. And YES, I do believe Marge is behind the Evan rumor. Someone brought it to Teresa and she did run with it. Teresa yeah is not as dumb as she acts. Thus Danielle and the hairpull that she was behind. And we think a Jersey girl like Marge would not do the payback? At this point, I feel both ladies have the other's number so they are really playing a mean game of chess. Love that Teresa was FINALLY picking on Marge's for her THs. Marge used the hair pull. Teresa still threw some shade. Marge brought up that Teresa knew what allgory was with a receipt. Parry. Thrust. Back. Forth. I predict that come next reunion...the gloves might FINALLY come off and they really go into it. JACKIE VS TERESA. See a theme here? Jackie did not do much, but she brought back up the rumor. And I thought it was good. Because Jackie was the only one who was trying to keep that horse going. Even her husband wasn't doing that. He was trying to smooth things over though. Why? Because Teresa IS the show. One can only go against her so long before they fall...which is why a feud with Marge would be interesting since she is also a favorite. Basically kiss the ring. In the end, she did. But I liked they somewhat organically came to a resolution. LUIS. Awww with that cameo. THINGS I DID NOT LIKE THE DIRECTION. PERIOD. We just need a better host. Asking and focusing on the right and juicy questions. Not just the lame ones like how it feels to kiss Joey's butt. Heck we could have gone into the alleged rumors about Jennifer and Bill. BRO CODE. While I understood why Joe would lie for Marge...duh...all one would have to do is do the rollback over the scene where he said what he said. And judging from the early rumors coming out of early filming, Bill is about to suffer for not keeping quiet either. Some boys are getting as messy as their wives... Again...good Part 1. Good season. But Part 2 was uneven. Wasted potential. Filming starts today or tomorrow...and early rumors are people are icing Jennifer AND Bill out.

Oh yes, Wendy tweeted about karma hitting AATT today. I've been watching the drama that went down with the panel a few days ago...and am no longer a fan. #teamplez #teambishop My only issue will be figuring out for real which stories were real and which were fake.

So...it's here. The LAST episode of POSE. After it only being seven episodes...after feeling slight hints of rushing...did it hold up? YES, This is probably going to be very scattered brained, but I loved so much about it (and the fact that it was two hours, not 90 minutes). A lot of people posted online that the talk about medical racism and how that STILL holds up right now even though that was back in 1995. It made me think of the time on LOOKING when they touched on Prep. As a black man, I never heard of it so it was news to me. I wonder why...hmmmm... Pray Tell, Pray Tell, Pray Tell. Not my favorite character, but he had a complete arc and I was along for the ride. And it was nice to see him doing well on the cocktail. It was nice to see him be there for Ricky. It was nice to see his breathtaking performance duet with Blanca to Ain't No Mountain High Enough. He was heading toward a happy ending. And it did occur to me that he was getting everything he wanted so something bad must be about to happen. So I was not surprised that he died. I WAS SURPRISED when the twist was revealed. Well it was in character because Ricky could always be naive. So of course he was happy that Pray Tell could get him on the cocktail and never questioned it. A sarcifice. And a bittersweet one because Ricky went on to be a House Father AND a backup dancer for the up and coming Destiny's Child. To be honest, Ricky really has grown over this last season and he truly was not where he was at the start of the show, but none of the characters were. Now...Blanca and the spin...YAAASSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! You all know I love spins...which is why I love me sum Lulu...who got a happy ending too...it was really, really, really good to see Blanca let loose like that with the spin and drop for me. And her lip sync was great and her dancing so well like a mirror image with Pray Tell...lol...I know my Gemini is showing. MJ has always been good in her ballroom performances but she...like the looks Blanca has been showing off...has taken to a whole other level this season and that was so great. And I am also happy to say BLANCA LIVES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! So And that ending that echoes not only the first episode, but the season 2 finale when she had that Prof X vibe going on, AND to Whitney's 'My Love is Your Love?' PERFECTION. I had tears at her full circle. AND she has a hot man that loves her. You know I'm going to talk about that brunch and how meta it was. They shaded TF out of SATC and it was hilarious. And it was also very on point, given the issues that are always brought up about SATC at the same time. I wouldn't mind a SATC show with THESE girls. Not that I don't like the OTHER girls. Or a spinoff of the new ballroom kids. Not much, but they did have potential. Since I was watching old clips yesterday, I thought that it was very telling that 1998 Lemar was doing the SAME moves he was doing in the first episode this season. And it was funny because the judges said then that he can made it through the 80s with his old moves, but had updated to the 90s to stay relevant. Now in 98, those moves looked very old, dated, and worn...like Lemar did not make it out of the mid90s. Same style and everything. I would have liked to see Damon. But I'll take the mention of him happy in Chicago with a guy. I wished they had used some of the other characters more, but in hindsight, their stories were most finished a few episodes back and this was about the rest of the characters. So...good.

Wow. Someone that has beiged!!! Hell-o!!! That said... I love your comments other than Eboni, but I understand. thank you for the tea on Sonja. Puts the whole situation in a different light for sure.

I think Chris needs to stop trying to be a White Peter. From what I see online, he does just a little bit too much and that takes away from what we see of him onscreen...sometimes in not good ways.

Good straw.

LOVE.

Really? Not bad.

Well since status is not working... ...NOT unexpected, but STILL hit me where it hurts. It occurred to me, but dammmmmmmmmm..

Thank you for the spoilers tag. I'm still back on the start of this week.

@Soaplovers hopefully that means some of those 'ladies' are out.

Yeah it just feels like more and more he was trying to get on the show. And her? Just focusing on the bag. Ashley she ain't.

Cute. And Shangela was spot on...

RHOA And just as quickly as Falynn got an ad up...Simon had a response...chilllde... Oh? Ewww And I've still bugged by her behavior today so I feel that last sentence.

IS...HE...NOW? *cough*karma*cough*
