Well before the chaos begin...which I expect to lit for myself...hehee... DALLAS Well...WOW. In light of seeing all the reunion and the drama on Twitter about Brandi who is blind itemed now into rehab and the Kameron vs Travis drama on top on Stephanie showing herself to be what LeeAnne called her in Season 2 (Erika Jayne would say two faced)... ANDY. Yes, I put Andy first. Sorry, but he can't say anything with his glass house, subject of two blind items himself a#&. If he was like this at all reunions with people who deserved to be dragged, I would be all for it. Since he is not, I didn't like him doing it to LeeAnne. It has been clear to be for some time she was getting the bad edit this year. And I suspected that...not that LeeAnne isn't her own worst enemy anyway, but it was clear someone BTS was out to get her because there was really no redeeming quality to her really this year versus last year when she was all Zen LeeAnne. What makes it really sad that LeeAnne for all her comments has been right about her castmates now post-reunion which is funny. BRANDI. You had a chance to be the voice of reason and redeemed, but it seems like she was just being fake. And then that chair her way to have a moment since she was not getting one from Kameron. And then that video came out and you are in a wellness center *cough*rehab*cough* Girl, bye. STEPHANIE. So LeeAnne was right about you too. When LeeAnne does something everyone jumps on her. But anyone (especially Brandi) does it, and nothing from you. And that that drama over on Twitter and WWHL. Weakbacked AND two faced. And apparently you and Brandi have been trying to pull a Kyle. Yeaaah fake too and she was a favorite for her backstory. Girl, bye. KARY. All I have to say for her transparent ness is BITCH, BYE. Not even Bitca. B-I-t-c... KAMERON. I think is the only one who came out of the reunion in good standing. If everyone else was fired, she would probably not be. D'ANDRA. Were you ever really LeeAnne's friend? From what I hear, Tifftany would have still had her back. And then everyone was given advance warning of what was coming so they wanted to state a takedown. Yep...fake. LEEANNE. I got what you were trying to do. But well...it was sad to watch. I can only hope that going forward you can learn from this. Because why people go down all the time, the audience can appreciate an underdog. I do feel this show is done. And since it had a great season 3...that is sad to see.

DALLAS Wow. Just starting out, it feels like it is a roast. Period. Already. They really don't like LeeAnne, do they? NJ Well for the record to me, it seems like to me that fight would not have happened if it was not obvious that the other girls were sitting there picking on Danielle versus just being there to shop. Was it messy to confront it? Maybe. But adult. Then that went left. TERESA. What I took away with her? Wooooooooooowwwwwwwww, she did pick up on Marge taking a dig from her when they were on their trip. I was like uh oh. That said, I liked that she called everyone out on picking on Danielle. Right or not? MARGE. I am sorry, but I think being on reality tv has gone to her head. She has way too much going on that people would actually like to see. Why make Danielle your storyline when what is or isn't going on with her and Marty is none of your business? If they were not ragging on Danielle that fight would not have happened. And yeah, pour water on me, you are probably gonna get my hands. MELISSA. lol. Are the kids Joe and Melissa's? I wasn't watching NJ during most of the family drama so I am unclear. That said...yeah...she kinda has nothing going on other than to drive a wedge between Teresa and Danielle. JACKIE. Not relevant. JENNIFER. Nice to get some backstory on her family. And just wanted to say I loved her Easter dress. Fab. DOLORES. I must say that I liked that she is adult about the Danielle/Teresa friendship. Yes, she does not like her, but she puts up with her. DANIELLE. For this episode at least, Queen.

I saw there the whole time saying 'Heavenly, you are messing with the wrong one.' 'Heavenly, wrong road, wrong road' in regards to Simone. And that ending...I hollered. I was like 'why you leaving, Heavenly? why you leaving? Simone ain't the one.' And sure enough Simone started dropping tea and we know when pushed she will throw some hands. So seeing Heavenly run was the highlight for me. That said... QUAD/MARIAH. I think it is time to move on. I like both, but there is nowhere to go. And if it was a choice of who should be gone moving forward...well Quad is not married to medicine anymore so... JACKIE. Yeah. That last apology was completely genuine to me. And I was happy to see her make up with Simone. SIMONE. Boss. Idc. Boss. Thank you for gathering Heavenly together. But even with that it was sad to see Simone and Jackie fall out. And the montage of them over the years was shocking. HEAVENLY. Girl, bye. Yes, I know you are jealous of their friendship, but you were doing the most. CONTESSA. lol. I don't recall her doing much even though she was doing the most. TOYA. Hehe. Stay having backs and calling it like it is.

NJ Yep. It's the cliffhanger. Well-played, Bravo. Like the fight coming up on ATL, I will be back to see the outcome. Hooked. Haven't seen the episode, but the leadup in already on Twitter and going by that, I would say Team Danielle. Granted once I watch the episode as a whole, I could change my mind. But all I saw was that Danielle's insults got to her Marge. And then she kept poking the bear. And in true Season 7 in Italy fashion, Danielle exploded. Now Bravo, show it like you showed it all the trailers IN FULL. Double same for ATL'S upcoming fight. Speaking of... ATL FINALLY!!!! In Toronto. I have always wanted to go to Canada as a kid. Big fan of the ANNE OF GREEN GABLES/AVONLEA (even about to bingewatch AVONLEA and other childhood shows interestingly enough) so anything Canada draws me in. So happy with the light hearted fun so far. And I hollered at Porsha sneaking in the liquor. Yas, girl. *raises hand* Totally me. PORSHA. Honestly, ever since she was preggers, Porsha has been wining me over with her fun, her humor, and dare I say her maturity. WHEN DID THIS HAPPEN? I wonder that all the time because I used to loathe her. Okay, I know when lol. In any case, I even feel her pain. That said, I am not looking forward to her getting back together with Dennis. I am not. He's just so low down and I feel she deserve better. FINALLY. Sadly, I don't even think she is conning him either. And is the only black mark I feel on her this year. Otherwise, she has become one of my fave. KANDI. She has been great this year. She has stepped up everything. Her hair. Her clothes. Her vibe. And it all screams BOSS BITCA. And I am HERE FOR IT. She even have me questioning my finances after her talk with Todd, her pace on the economy....something that has been on my mind going into the new year. I do hope she holds Eva's feet to the fire after Eva sat there and backpedaled. Love her friendship combo with Kenya and Cynthia. CYNTHIA. As Porsha would say 'WRONG ROAD, GIRL!!! WRONG ROAD!!!' She so should not have stepped into Porsha and Kandi confront Eva on her mouth. Happy she is engaged and happy it has caused some nice, but organic tension between her, Kandi, and Kenya. EVA. Yeah, no longer a fan. This backpedaling and lack of 'owning it' is not cool with me. I hope Porsha keeps her way on social media and drags her from one side of the reunion to another. I expected more from Eva the Diva and this is disappointing. Some are calling her the new Shady Phae Phae and would say no. Shady Phae Phae was very good at hiding her hand once she threw that rock. Other than a giggle here and there, OVER HER. NENE. Who? LOL!!! Even if she is not behind the B. Scott stuff, it is very transparent what she is trying to do. It didn't work for Vicki on OC (okay, it did until she torpedoed her chances on the OC reunion) and it won't work for you, Nene. You hurt your image. You hurt it enough that you have to do a redemptive arc and for her to do that she has to 1)feel remorse and work on it with the girls and it don't feel FAKE and 2)provide some alternative fun and/or idea when not in scenes with the girls and 3) provide some good organic drama. And for me, it seems like she is only doing Number 3. And she is faking Number 1 and THAT is the important one. She is on the outside looking in and I just wish that it wasn't so transparent. With Viki this past season on OC even if it was transparent, it felt real. I will say seeing how on thin ice she is after going after Andy on social media, I at least want to see how she plays it from here to the reunion. Otherwise, she just might get dropped. Especially if the alleged sptting fight with Kenya happened. KENYA. You make it hard to stan a queen. lol. Still loving the friendship trio with her, Kandi, and Cynthia. But yeah...she was in the wrong for almost spoiling the engagement. I continue to feel sorry for what is going on with Marc. But she is becoming a hot mess...part of the reason there is a fight coming with Nene. She really does not want those two to get back together. Understandable. Real. Organic. And STILL it is not a good look to get in-between those two. Just hope that if Nene and Cynthia become friends again, she keeps her backbone a la Season 7. THE FRIENDS. Marlo...continues to step it up this season. Tanya...stay loving her. She is just so positive. LOVE. Yovanna. Thirsty ho. Over her. DALLAS @NothinButAttitude thank you for confirming that Brandi has gone back to her 'thirsty ho' ways. Like OC Viki, she had a good season for me that sounds like she ruins at the reunion. Just ugh. And I love the video. Say what you will about LeeAnne, but it says something that a gay man is running around social media exposing all the girls who have tried to take LeeAnne down this year. Interesting since she is a racist and all. *shrugs* Still, it sounds like LeeAnne did double down at the reunion so ugh at her. SMH. Sounds like also I going to want to slap ALL of the taste out of Kary's mouth. Cue Kandi's new meme from the engagement. BITCA. Can't wait to watch.

See? That is built in drama right there given Caroline and Sophie's relationship and Juliet's need to belong. Add in some newbie American trying to fit into British society and it could be great. I just hope it is true that they are thinking about bringing it back. I wouldn't mind Caroline in NYC, but I would love her in BH just because she would tear all those hoes apart without breaking a sweat.

Well... @Cat and @DaytimeFan, it would appear there had been some talks some time ago about maybe rebooting Ladies of London, helped by the fact that there are people just now discovering it online and streaming and watching it. I wanted to see if you two had had heard anything. And also...the Queen Caroline posted the day after X-mas that after 17 years, her and her husband are leaving each other. I admit to being shocked myself. Also giggling at how many people want her to resurface on tv given her close ties to NYC by Dorinda and apparently her ties to BH by Lipsa.

NJ Sounds like with Kenya v Nene, NJ is going to tease out this NJ fight between Danielle and Marge too.

Who?

RHOA They are totally going to tease out that fight. So I say it doesn't say it happens until the end of next week. And then it will be in episode 11 (with midseason trailer). RHOP Yeeeah...I am now ready for them to come back to see the messiness of this Monique/Candiace Drama.

Hahaha. Last time I tried from Twitter to here, it didn't end well. And it seems Bravo is getting lazy on their YT channel.

I bet they are going to teased that out over several episodes.

What? No one dropped the trailer for the reunion yet? Especially Simone vs Jackie.

JANUARY 1, BABY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! YAAASSSSSSSSSSSSSS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! That said...NJ I've been seeing in bits and pieces, but I am really enjoying the season. I am only disappointed that it is not in 'real time.' TERESA. Those girls. Wow. What they are going through with the Joe drama. Just rough. And I agree with the rest of you. Brother Joe is coming across so likable. And this soulful man is looking kinda...hot? Weird for me. But I love him being the rock. MARGE. She still has her moments. But I feel like she is either doing the most or getting a bad edit or being Season 7 Eileen of RHoBH. Now nearly as funny as I am used to her being. Maybe it's the fact that Marge Sr moved out. But...? JENNIFER. Loving. But that advice about the bullying of her daughter. But...parents are allowed to make mistakes. THIS. ALL OF THIS. And Season 9 was my first OC Season. And I still find it so watchable. And what I liked about Lizzie was that she sat back and let the incidents build. And then by the time the ladies got to Bali, she had ALL the receipts. Probably the closest to a takedown that Tamra has ever gotten. That said...this season...started off so strong. I...just lost interest. Other than maybe Viki's meltdown, I don't even want to watch the reunion. Over it. Just too toxic. And it didn't start off that way at all.

WOW...so much to unpack. DALLAS I guess I should preface by saying I didn't get to see the middle Thailand episode or the finale (if anyone have links. cuz the backlash over this has of course resulted in Bravo barely showing repeats), but I still don't see LeeAnne as racist. Ignorant yes. Typical Texan (which as an Arkansan I feel comfortable saying that) yeah. Racist...surprisingly no. Like I have said and continue to see on these clips and advertisements for the DALLAS reunion, LeeAnne really does not like Kary. And Kary really does not like LeeAnne. And they are pushing each other's buttons. And LeeAnne knew how to do that. It's just that It backfired. If anything the fact that this all started over LeeAnne trying to be respectful of other culture while Kary was not trying to be is telling on Kary more than LeeAnne. If anything going by what is going on on Twitter, I feel Kary (not to mention D'Andra and Brandi) is taking a page out of the RHoBH playbook by using this drama with LeeAnne to cover up for the fact that she did say how she is a strong Mexican, being prideful in her heritage while making homophobic comments on Twitter. Or is this another case of 'it's okay for me to be this way, but LeeAnne acts it and we girls have to jump on her?' You know...LeeAnne's Season 3 argument. Which...was true and while some of the other girls came around. Speaking of said girls, clearly D'Andra is running with it. More deflection from the fact she can't run a business and isn't more cunning than her mother. Ashley Abbott (and Kristen Dimera) can do better!!! As for Brandi, good job. Faking the whole time and now seeing you have no storyline, getting back on the HATE LEEANNE bandwagon. WRONG ROAD, BITCA. WRONG ROAD. Overall, I can't say the show has not become a lightning rod at the moment due to the comments. if anything, it has called attention to the show. And isn't any publicity good publicity? It would be shocking if LeeAnne could pull a LVP where all her enemies (okay, D'Andra and Kary) got replaced the next season, and seeing how Brandi, Stephanie, and Kameron deal with her return a la a phoenix? But again...it is interesting to see how she is going to navigate the next few months...PERIOD. All eyes on show. Again showing for better or worse...she IS THE SHOW. re: D'Andra. There's a reason she is at the end of the couch. Seriously, the bold. I think that is why I haven't just flat out been anti-LeeAnne. If she will truly work on her ignorance...like she was working on her anger and being Zen in Season 3...and I feel she would be willing sincerely...then I would be down for that. A person can be ignorant of other people and culture due to limited experience...and even maybe be a bit unpc-ed, but can learn better. Of course, maybe it is for me my personal experience kicking in again cuz I had a similar experience and when it was told to me that made me question my whole outlook and positive change came from it. I was glad it was pointed. My problem here was that NO ONE was pointed it out to LeeAnne because they wanted to take her down, bar Kameron. It was also why I was looking forward to the finale because Kameron did what a good friend would do and sat her down to say 'hey, girl. we need to talk. But my work schedule and Bravo so grrrr. Doesn't sound like it came off well at all. And I do agree with what I have seen online and comments here. LeeAnne has kinda let the fame go to her head. Why do I think so? Because now would be the time for her to find her bowl and Zen this out. And yet...nothing. And yet...that good ole (yes, ole) pride. Because I don't see her doing Kary a genuine apology and even if she could pull it off, I don't think Kary would believe her. They disliked each other that much if the history between pre-show is true.

Exactly @Cat!!! Even though it's been months since RHOP aired, social media is STILL all about RHOP due to all the drama going on...like RHOA USED TO BE and also was THIS season. I definitely feel it has passed RHOA in the last year or so which is why RHOA is struggling (but succeeding so far) in getting people back talking. RHOP stole their watercooler thunder. And yes on the lawsuit. Interesting that OC can do that, but as soon as someone else...shall we say not RHOD related...does it, there is rumors of cancellation going on? Indeed. It is EMPIRE Season 5 drama all over again without the fake attack. And you hit again. I feel there is a REASON Quad and Kenya were on WWHL tonight...and also tonight RHOA Cynthia pops up on M2M with Quad. Foreshadowing? Perhaps Mariah and the M2M cast are working behind the scenes to get rid of Quad since she is no longer married to medicine, but Bravo like her messiness and want to move her somewhere else. And RHOA would work a la Lisa Rinna with the BH housewives girls S1-5 who she had history with before she joined.

To my knowledge, RHOP ratings were not only good but they INCREASED leading up to the reunion...the reunion being the season high. EVERYONE wanted to see the Michael drama play out. ETA: Given the ratings, if RHOP is cancelled it will be because of all the potential lawsuits or maybe they don't want any of their older RH shows (I'm looking at you, RHOA) overshadowed IMHO. Seems like they have been setting up Quad to move to RHOA to me with her having scenes with Cynthia in the latest episode and you know Mariah would love nothing more than to get rid of her.

And here Kenya was saying it had to do with Quad's appearance with Sheree on WWHL. Interesting. Moreso since Quad called her out and asked what she said. And Kenya had...no comment. I thought they were evenly matched.

HAHAHAHAHA!!! I was just about to say HEADS UP since Twitter is all over Kenya vs Quad on tonight's WWHL. Andy, you were NOT ready for that. lol.

#preach. I am currently binge watching ANGEL again and I live for Cordelia Chase anew. And he just turned 50 not to long ago.

Still love you though.

It was. I cannot even believe that this week will be a month already. So busy with my work schedules and finishing a new novel that I forgot that there are loose ends, evident by a co-worker messaging me to pick up his schedule. So many people were not around when I left that I still have to personally talk to. But happy with my choice.

GOD BLESS YOU, KENYA MOORE. That episode was so well paced. Definitely worth a rewatch.

ALL OF THIS. Jackie has her moments, but while Jennifer's star is growing because of her sense of humor, Jackie is falling flat. Even Dolores (who already proved her worth against NY's Ramona of all people) gathered her. I haven't caught the repeat yet (cuz you know how Bravo is) but nice to hear a third person say this.

'Is it Jesus? Cuz that's who she needs.' DEAD at this. And darrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrn at Cynthia at all that shade she just threw at Nene when Kandi played bone carrier to her and Kenya. So far...this episode has been on point. Even foreshadowing the Toronto trip.

HAHAHAHAHA!!! I continue to heart this Kenya/Porsha friendship. And Tanya is perfect for Porsha. Without Shady Phae Phae and Shaema busy with her baby, Porsha doesn't have that carefree twerky fun partner in crime. Tanya FITS with her in a way she did not with Nene and brings such lightheartedness into Porsha's current situation, getting her to laugh. I lmfao at them twerking about Carnival. @MrPrezident I just watched the 20 year reunion EW interviews of ANGEL today so your avatar is giving me so much life. Mmmmm...Charisma.
