Well speaking of rumors that rumor was discussed in another post months ago. And then not discussed again. Easy to find for the curious. And now that it's confirmed on casting...well...he looks like he could be a good EJ. Never watched Spectraus.

@Cat sometimes I think I'm scared to rewatch the old seasons of NY cuz of the Countess. I love LuAnn so much I think it will be jarring to see her in her Countess persona. As for NJ...their past reunions look juicy enough that I would. And they have enough history in scenes of seasons I've watched that I'm curious enough to go back. We'll see. And yes...I expect better of Marlo.

Uh oh.

I admit...during the lockdown portion of the pandemic, I did develop a like for SUV (and Stabler hehe) so I can't believe that I missed it!!! Good on the ratings.

NJ First, that midseason trailer hints at cracks in the Mean Girls Club and I'm all for it. Melissa needs some drama since things with Michelle appear to be over. Meanwhile, Marge needs to be called out. If you are going to stir the pot, be ready to have it come back to you. Or better yet own it. This episode was good. Perhaps a sign of how Jersey people are. Ready to rumble at one point, and then laughing it up and then back again. It definitely was not boring. However, Jackie is a weak trick. Teresa might have been messy, but Jackie was just all talk and little digs. And when Teresa came...she sat there and cried. And then she wanted to have a meltdown on her minions Marge and Melissa. Whatever ho. Thankfully, she was smart enough to see that Teresa putting out her THIRD olive branch that she was lucky to get was a way to build a bridge so they can walk over it. Because she needed to face it. Teresa is the Queen and ain't going NOWHERE. Bow down, or bow OUT. Good choice, Jackie. THINGS I LOVED: JOE/MELISSA VS TERESA. I believe I've said many times that I never watched the first 5 seasons. I've seen clips and the odd episode here and there. But like RHONY (which I promise I will get around to) I was not around and watching then. I only know of the family dynamic from where I started and what has been said here. So I definitely know there was no love lost between Joe and Joe. So it is always explosive when Joe gets bothered by how close Teresa and Joe appear to still be. Sadly, they will always be due to their kids. And they have a pretty cool co-parenting thing going on. Joe and Melissa are going to have to deal eventually. Until then, it was nice to see this kind of explosion. Speaking of... MARGE VS JACKIE. See? Since Regina George couldn't take on the real Queen, she had to take on a minion. Perhaps it was the fact that Jackie sensed that Marge has been talking behind her back. But watching that meltdown was great. GIRL, BYE!!! I'm sorry. I'm not liking Marge. It should be clear that she was probably the person who started this whole Evan rumor. She didn't seem surprised when Teresa mentioned it. And she seem a little TOO angry. As if she was guilty. And NO, you said that story about the boss in an intimate moment. But intimate...as a bit of a joke on the OTHER cast trip. Nice try. And just like Brandi over on DALLAS, it appears that she's about to try to deflect (or get revenge) by attacking Jennifer. Nice try...Jennifer's ready for you. Bring it on. She'll leave you dust. JENNIFER. IS LOVE. Smart enough to not get in the middle of Joe/Melissa vs Teresa. And ballsy enough to take Marge now. Team Jennifer. EVAN. Suuure does have a nice chest. THINGS I HATED JACKIE. All that unnecessary crying. Not so tough huh? TERESA. While I thought she handled all of it well. I do not feel that she needed to give such a public apology to Evan. Sorry. It screamed 'Jackie wants to try to humiliate Teresa' written all over it. I liked how unbothered she was. And definitely something she's not used to. Oh, well. Even sucky people get to win a round from time to time. Like the midseason trailer. They are. One of the best moments last year was the roasting that the L.A. City Council got during BLM for how people were mistreated by police. And that was a Zoom. RHOA It appeared that Bravo has taken out the Falynn vs Latoya episode offline due to Kenya's head dress. It is still on my system so hopefully it stays on. She apologized. So did Bravo. Go pick on someone who deserves to be attack like Erika Jayne. Meanwhile...That one reunion picture was meh. Now that more pictures have popped off. FAVORITES: Cynthia, Kenya, Porsha (that one picture with the sleeved arm in the forefront is perfection), Latoya (it dazzles), and Shamea. I LIKE: Kandi, Drew MEH: MARLO (shocking). I will probably check my mind once I see them move.

Oh it was. Almost done with it. But that first 30 minutes was cray cray.

RHOD Thiis bittttca!!!!!! But first...let me just said everyone (but that chuckyhead)'s TH was really on point. And Stephanie would look great with a gothic look. And even Kary looked like a Boss B in that white suit. Niiice. That said...Team LeeAndra. Brandi must have watched the BH reunion and thought she could use the gaslighting manuver that Ex Soap Star tried to use on Denise Richards. No, trick!! No!!! Kudos to LeeAndra seeing what was going on and breaking that fourth wall to the producers and venting off about that. She probably even had flashbacks of how everyone ganged up on LeeAnne as she went off. As someone who glanced at the article in question, I know it was not even about LeeAndra trying to trash Brandi as the article was simply asking if they would sweep what she did under the rug. Nothing more. Nothing less. Other than that, I thought it was a good episode. Mildly dull at times, but good. I really wished they had not taken the week off. It has killed the momentum. And now the only arc I see...and it's not even really an arc...is pathetic Brandi making herself look worse and worse in her pathetic attempts to stay relevant as a Candiace Lite. Now unless LeeAndra exposes her soon or she has a really bad comuppance on scene this is a waste of time. TIFFANY. I loved her scenes with her mother and Mama Dee. Two different mothers. Two different prespective. After playing it cool the last time she showed up, confusing Tiffany, Tiffany's mother seem to be taking little digs. Or was it just in Tiffany's mind. I mean...it is possible for our parents to mellow with age. I know when I was younger I wanted a tattoo and my parents were no, no, no. Then I come home for college and my parents were all about tattoos. I was like rme. lol. I loved Mama Dee's advice and thought that whole scene was great. But Tiffany's family scenes are endlessly fascinating to me. KAMERON. Awwwww Court. I loved that whole little story. The family that trick each other into dream houses...stay together. But I think he's cute anyway. KARY. Brandi has a watchdog. She's named Stephanie. There was no need for her to get in the middle of Candiace...I mean Victim Brandi vs LeeAndra. STEPHANIE. Not much there but a great confessional. BRANDI. That whole scene with her 'checking her emails' was complete and utter SET-UP. We see how setting up things is working out for Jen Shah, so Brandi really needs to quit. Seriously, she's been doing this for episodes now. She continues to try to find a way to deflect for the real reason she has been attacked in the first place...BRANDI, YOU'RE A SUCKY PERSON!!!! No matter how you try to put the blame for your video on a POC, act born again when you are known to run around with dildos, poof, and wigs in your crotch, or fake cry with no real tears, no one with any intelligence will fall for that. LEEANDRA. She played it smart. She walked in there just like she said, expecting a setup. And she was right. I loved her paying Brandi dust...and then letting Brandi hang herself by mentioning the article. Then Kary tried to attack her and she deflated that with an apology...and then Brandi still tried to attack her. And she calmly called her out. So...Point 1 for her as we go into a TO BE CONTINUED. And I stay liking how Jeremy flirts with her so shamelessly. Good episode but I am tired of Candiace...I mean Brandi.

Whatever ho. 😜

While I am excited he is picking up the beat he started with Imani (who hopefully also shows up), I stay cautious.

NY HA!!!

DISCUSS!!!

The irony of me putting in Toni Braxton's LIBRA cd while I work on my blog and that gif...DEAD.

SLC And it just got juicier. In a now deleted tweet...Bravo HAD CAMERAS AT THE COURTHOUSE!!!! ALSO: And...

O...M...G.... ALL OF THIS TEA!!!!!!!!!!! @Chris B same on Mary.

YAASSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Not that I believe what the Cokehead says but GOOD. For the reason you listed...I want to see EVERYONE'S reactions. Heck, were they arrested on film?

I CAN'T!!!

That's the vibe I've always gotten as well. From what little I've seen of her I like her. And she never backed down from using the word HOLLA. And her husband is FOINE. LOL. So backlash away. Yeah...more reason for her to be jealous of Mary.

I just saw that and my jaw dropped. Ooooo...AND they are STILL filming Season 2 right now RIGHT? Re: your shade I like her, but same.

Oh, I've seen Leah being extra ever since she called Production's bluff and got that pay raise. But...I had hoped that she would not let it go to her head. I like Heather and so do it appears a lot of people so I expect some backlash if Heather walked off cuz of her. What little I heard...Leah CAN.

Well we are definitely going to see that somebody is out for sure. Probably a few if it turns out that the denial of Travis owns a part of Goodbye Pictures is a lie...which someone brought back up in the last two weeks. We'll see.

To read it or not to read it....that is the question. That said...sounds like Leah is going to be hit with the second season curse.

RHOD Well...apparently producers are already casting. And are taking it SERIOUSLY. And sounds like they are looking at POC, too. So...who's out? Just saying...*sips* RHOA I liked the start of the NOLA trip. Where do I even begin? We have a Hotel Indigo here in San Diego. I have walked past it often. And even applied to work there. So it was very interesting to see the girls there and them appreciating the great customer service. Go, Robert for his skills. I hope that when I've been in hospitality at times that I've been as good as he's been cuz I am sure Kenya was a handful. Just this weekend alone (it's a full moon for the next few days) I've dealt with a lot. And I had to pull a Season 8 ShebySheree on one chick yesterday. Nah uh uh, boo. I know what you said and went over what you said. Don't think you are getting loud with me. #whogoncheckmeboo It might have started off bad with Kenya in a foul mood. And yes, she really was in a foul mood. It made me wonder if there was Marc drama going on at the time. And Drew being thirsty to start drama didn't help at all. NO she does not want to twerk in front of her daughter. On camera. Especially if Marc is using it to cause drama off camera. So that I understood, but Kenya's mood was foul. Good to see that it let up and the trip started to be fun. I have yet to go to NOLA though all of my friends had a tradition where they go for Mardi Gras so I've been endlessly fascinated with it since I was in college (and part of the reason I love/ed SOUTHERN CHARM NOLA which is a great show with real friends shameless plug. Jon Moody alone is worth going to watch it with his foine black butt ) so I am looking forward to seeing where the girls go. And the Cajun food they showed...hmmmm. There is a little NOLA shop that is opened nearby my house that has managed to survive during the pandemic that I now really want to go to. Okay, I wanted to before, but NOW after tonight...GOING. Honorable mention to Shamea and 'No one's talking to you. Go back to sleep.' It was brief, but oooo at her checking Latoya. Honorable mention also to the Porsha/Marlo montage (awwww), the twerking montage (I'm guilty...I got up to see if I still got it after a year of not twerking), and Porsha giving Brooklyn chips (awww). KENYA. Girl, no. She was being foul at the start of this trip. I get why she did not want to twerk in front of her daughter and on her side about that. However...she came across waaaaay too bitchy to me. Thankfully, she let up...and she...was fun!!! I've always enjoyed when her and Marlo got along so I'm enjoying that. And such a diva...knowing Drew would give her the bad room so proving she's a boss...she got a BETTER one. In fact, she was really giving no drama so far. Her very presence and living life was setting Drew and Porsha on edge and I was here for that. lol. CYNTHIA. Grr at looking text. Now...to say it a THIRD time...she was just sitting there tonight and sitting pretty and I have NO PROBLEM with that. We even got a hint of Season 7 Cyn when she chin checked Latoya. KANDI. I loved that she can fly in from doing boss moves (and who was that foine man that was carrying in her bags. js) and stayed mostly out of the drama. PORSHA. GURL YOU ARE TOO JEALOUS!!! On one hand I can understand. If a good friend of mine was becoming friends with someone who I don't like or have a rivalry with (Boo Boo Kitty at my old job comes to mind), I would side eye as well. However, Porsha was giving it too much air. And while they needed to air it out at the end of the episode, just WOW. It was lit. At least Marlo was willing to get it ALL out on the table. If you are going to question her intentions (but not say Shamea), then she has every right to question yours. JS. We want it all out...let's get it ALL out. I'm the same way in such situations. And since Marlo isn't being like say Latoya who was all about spilling her so-called friend's info...it just looked like Porsha was just wanting drama for the sake of drama. Speaking of wanting drama for drama sake... DREW. Thirsty ho. While Kenya's mood was foul, it was just not helped by Drew needlessly trying to start drama. I see you, girl...and NO. Don't be all fake about it. At least, Kenya see you and (and can upgrade her room hehe) while what can you do when it was reverse. NO...A...THING. Nice try though. Not so much a nice try was her coming for Latoya. For once...Latoya had not done anything for that. So...yeah...that was a lame attempt at drama and go for Latoya for pulling a SLC Meredith on her and disengaging at the end once she saw Drew and Porsha ganging up on her. And again, we saw a case of two things 1) Drew being like Kandi and working on working while on the trip and 2)producers cutting out scenes...it would seem that there was a lot more interaction between Drew and Latoya than we are seeing which might make this season more well rounded. Just smh. LATOYA. Other than being dragged by Shamea and some light shading of mostly Falynn, she was low key this time around. And even had a moment where Kenya and her had a brief talk. But Kenya has experience with being ganged up on so she could probably relate. And I didn't like Drew coming for her unprovoked. She already did not like Latoya doing that with her so don't do it yourself. Looking forward to Kenya vs Porsha next week and how that has more Porsha/Marlo fallout. Good start to the last cast trip.

WOOF!!!! Three days out, I feel good if slow but I've been taking it slow. And got flirted with. Awwww.
