WTGH

That trailer looks EXCELLENT! 

 at Bethenny making it about HERSELF when Jill is telling her she hasn't been alone since she was 20. 

I genuinely like all of the NYC women, which makes the show much, much more enjoyable. The perfect mix of light drama and more serious issues. 

A short clip of Vicki, Tamra and Shannon at Andale's has surfaced.

WOO-HOO!!! Whoop it up time! 

Kelly was not there.

OC DRAMA!

Apparently, Kelly and Vicki are on the outs-- Vicki  played matchmaker to Kelly's ex. 

If this is true, it's going to get ugly. Kelly is VICIOUS. 

Two days late, but this cracked me up: 

My ranking of the Best Picture nominees I've seen so far:

1. Dunkirk 
2. The Shape of Water 

3. Three Billboards outside Ebbing, Missouri
4. Get Out (although I think Wonder Woman should've been nominated instead)
5. The Post
6. Darkest Hour

Have yet to watch: Call Me by Your Name, Lady Bird, Phantom Thread, 

Entertainment Weekly has a compilation of every book written by the HW's.

Random Thoughts:

• The only one I've read is Carole's What Remains.
• If it's on sale for 1.99 I'd pick up one of Teresa's cookbooks and LVP's entertaining book. 
• I didn't know Eileen Davidson has "written" so many books
• I had forgotten about Jill Zarin's fiasco with the fake Amazon reviews. 

NYC: Currently shooting cast trip in Colombia (Cartagena). 

Kim D needs to be a fulltime HW.

NJ is trash, why not embrace it fully? 

Bethenny is launching SkinnyGirl Denim.

Per her IG stories, they look surprisingly good. They'll launch in the fall and will retail for about $100.

The Gorga pizzeria is shutting down, or moving, or not:

“They are in the process of closing down their current location and seeking a larger location. They are seeking different management to run it. Their focus is getting a bigger flagship restaurant in New Jersey and then expanding. I would anticipate the reopening of the restaurant to be a family affair and Teresa would be receptive to taking a more expansive role.”

Potomac's cast trip is in Cannes, IIRC.

Rinna's is my favorite.

Random thoughts:

Dorit feels like a 3-4 season veteran. I'm surprised how quickly she gained her place.

Kyle's tagline sucks. When she asked for ideas on Twitter, someone suggested: My husband's in real estate, and I'm the realest in the State.

That, would've been PERFECT!

Meh to the rest. I'm not as excited for this season. 

Ugghhhhh. Not Gretchen! The show doesn't need any more returns. We need to move FORWARD.

I don't think Meghan should come back. She'll be 4-6 months pregnant when shooting begins.

IMO, a friend of Kelly's should be the new HW. S13 cast: Vicki, Tamra, Kelly, Shannon, Friend of Kelly's.

Rinna looks amazing!

Trailer for Yolanda's new TV show.

Yolanda comes off as a Madame, about to sell those girls into being sex slaves.

Per TamaraTattles, Meghan is pregnant! She's expecting a boy.

OC: I'm behind and just saw the finale. The season was disappointing and completely forgettable.

Somehow, Kelly is now my favorite HW. 

I've never seen Dallas, but I'll be visiting in January. I need to be all caught up by then!

I miss Thanksgiving on ATWT.

As cheesy as it was, I loved the cutting of the Hubbard squash. 

Not Charlie Rose! This Morning is my favorite AM show.

Something about the Jeffrey Tambor situation doesn't seem right...

Popular! 

NYC: Bobby Zarin doesn't have much time left. 

Per RealityTea, he's at home and Jill's priority is to make him feel comfortable.

"Diamonds aren't a girl's best friend. FREEDOM IS." 

 

 

"... But it helps to have diamonds." 

 

That shot was straight out of Dynasty's opening credits. 

 

I hope they just want to keep a lid on the juiciness too... I'm especially hoping this Rinna-Erika blowout in Berlin is something substantial.

The cons:

-Camille and Adrienne nowhere to be seen.

-Some of the jokes fell flat *cough*Boy George. 

-I'm not getting much of a read on the Mellencamp chick... and she looks identical to Dorit.

-Rinna pimping her talent-free crotchfruit again.

-I'm not sensing a through story or what the conflict is this season. Which usually means the conflict ain't all that.

I'm glad that a through story isn't reflected. Usually "the story" swallows up the season to the point the viewers are begging for mercy (Lyme Disease, Panty Gate, CancerGate on OC, etc).

Why id Teddi Mellencamp FULL TIME when she's barely in the trailer?  That precious spot could've been saved for Camille.

I'm surprised Dorit is featured so heavily. She's quickly climbing the ranks. 

Kevin Lee voice: Cheee Cheee Cheee, darling!

Earlier this week, Camille posted on her IG stories a camera crew at her house. So, barring a TV show just for her, she'll have talking heads as a friend. 

I can't tell whose Dorit and who's Teddi Mellencamp. 

Random thought: From that grainy 180p photo, I get the feeling everyone is gunning for Lisa Rinna... 

1/16  Italian!

For a moment I thought it was Tamra, Shannon and Meghan, but now I can see that it was Vicki by the sleeveless hand.

 

Nothing would make me happier to see these three meet halfway and have a frenemyship rather than this outright Cold War which is killing the show. I know it seems like I'm over-exaggerating but OC is at Def-Con Critical Level for me. This Reunion teaser looks kind of contrived. Tamra sounds like she is reading a script. I can't bear Meghan or Kelly. Kelly is really rotten to the core, and mean. Lydia is a non-entity made up entirely of hair. Peggy literally makes my brain itch. I don't know if I can watch two reunion episodes with those four hashing out whatever contrived nonsense they had to do to fill up episodes this year.

 

BTW, are they ever going to mention the REAL reason Tamra and Vicki's forgiveness sesh didn't stick? It was the leak of the BJ audio tapes! Bravo haven't mentioned it even though production wanted to close the season with it, and I have a feeling we won't be hearing anymore about that mis-step. Drat.

 

P.S.: Looking forward to that ATL Soul Train episode. Look at Nene lying through her new nose about Sheree's wonderful Chateau! We all know that place is uninhabited with mold, no electricity, running water or heating, and creditors pounding on the door.

 

Behind the scenes brawls are a MAJOR warning sign that the show is going off the rails.

On NJ, the Dominican Republic bar fight led to a permanent rift between Caroline and Teresa, which seemingly came out of the blue. The onscreen issue did not justify Caroline's full blown hatred.

On BH, it was Surrogate Gate. Although there were other SL's at the time that sort of balanced out that drama. 

OC Wishlist:

Ditch: Lydia, Megan and Peggy.

Bring in a friend of Kelly's. 

There needs to be closure between Tamra, Shannon and Vicki. Otherwise, one of them needs to leave. 

NYC has begun shooting, LuAnn posted this picture on Instagram.

However, the real tea is what's with Marysol Patton's snarky comment towards Carole?
