It'd be kind of interesting though, since there's now the proof and confirmation that Brandi's allegations were in fact true about Adrienne. Faye wouldn't have much to bitch about, other than saying that Brandi's delivery of the information is tacky, yada yada yada. I'd enjoy seeing the morally corrupt Faye in a couple segments. If Pam was able to get one (that was her name, right? The 25,000 sunglasses lady?), surely Faye can get a lil bit o' airtime in, especially since Camille, Marissa, and actual housewife Adrienne are no-shows.

I really hope this means Kyle is left standing alone with no cronies to defend & back her up. She really needs to get called out on her [!@#$%^&*] stirring and two-facedness.

LMAO at "the other girl"

I think Cynthia needs to stay. She really earned her status this season and has been bringing it even without Nene. I like what Ive seen from her.

Phaedra is wearing thin on me this season and Ive finally gotten sick of the fake southern belle routine. Im not even finding her funny anymore and I miss over the top and delusional Phaedra from season 3. Id get rid of her and keep Kandi.

Nene has said she wont leave the show and I believe her. Unfortunately she will likely just stick around in the same capacity she is in this season and I wonder if Bravo would ever downgrade her. I think Andy might fear losing her completely bc I think even her presence and attachment to the show helps it, even if she isnt fully involved.

I know you disagree but I still want Marlo back. Throw in a new woman and I think the cast of Kenya, Cynthia, Kandi, Marlo, New Girl and friend Nene could be good. I guess they could just bump the cast up to 7 women bc Nene wont add much and they'll probably want to see what works in terms of increasing their story potential. Id take Victoria Rowell as her brand of crazy seems suited for here. Stacy Dash or Lisa Raye (even though I cant stand her) would also work. Guess the latter would depend on when SL shoots

Agreed. Cynthia has saved herself this season. Phaedra just looks bad now. Her insults on last night's episode were pathetic. Kenya is a great new addition. Kandi is so/so IMO, I can take her or leave her. Porsha's dumbass just needs to go. No matter what capacity it's in, friend or full-on housewife, I'm sure NeNe will still be around.

She's just jealous Lisa got DWTS and her "superstar a--" didn't. She has to settle for NBC wages which must be somewhere near minimum by now.

I love Nene but she's kind of pissing me off, but in a totally good, fun way.

I didn't see NeNe's comments as dissing Lisa. She was simply saying that the last episode she saw of Beverly Hills she saw Lisa getting read at the dinner table.

Hmm... wonder if she got flack for going against Queen Vanderpump. Or maybe she's simply over it. Either way, I wish she would've attended the reunion just because I like her personality and the lil tidbits she adds to the conversation. Plus you can tell Andy likes her alot. Oh well

I told y'all that Cat Lady was gonna pull a Jacqueline and punk out. And I guess Kyle will be on her own to feel the fire today. Sucks to be her. I'm sure they'll bring Mauricio out on the stage for a segment.

That is SO lame, yet not surprising. She's a total coward. She's the classic case of someone "throwing the brick and hiding the hand."

I would've loved to have seen the cat woman get roasted, seeing that deer-in-the-headlights guilty expression on her face, repeating a generic line over and over while trying to cover up whatever it is she's lying about. Oh well. Instead we'll get the whole story without her chance to make excuses.

Yeah, but we don't like her so it's not worth mentioning.

Buwahahah

This is different IMO take Adrienne out of the equation and we would still have story. If you pulled Teresa out of NJ Season 4 what in the world would they have been doing???

Oops you already answered

since when is Adrienne very popular?

Adrienne is talked about, but it's not the ONLY storyline on Beverly Hills. New Jersey is literally ALL ABOUT TERESA. There would be no show the past 2 seasons without her. The same cannot be said for Adrienne on BH.

Yeah he wants to press Teresa on being cheated on and Joe going to jail, but let's ignore the million dollar lawsuit the Lauritas are facing, or how Joe Gorga has been accused of fraudulence or how the house they filmed in was really a house he rennovated and not one he bought, or all the stuff Al Manzo with the NJ State Government

Dayumn!

I'd love to see Jacq's crazy ass called out on her hypocrisy. Ugh, that woman.

Let the battle of the booties... begin?

Kenya releases her stallion booty boot camp video.

I keep LMAO that she's wearing green as well. Her cover looks nice.

Now THAT'S a cover to a fitness DVD! This looks "authentic" while Phaedra's looks like some sort of fake mock up... ya know?

I loved Jasmine Guy! I also loved Anne-Marie Johnson as Alycia. 'Tis a pity both roles were squandered, especially Guy's role. And both ladies fell victim to Peter Burns... sigh. These two were the only good chance at having a dynamic black woman on the series after Rhonda left.

For next season's RHOBH, I can see Lisa, Brandi, and Kyle staying. Even though she's two-faced and needs to have her comeuppance, they center a lot of the show around her and I think she's one of the "faces" of the show (then again, Jill Zarin was a "face" of NYC and see where that got her...). I do agree that Kim has been riding on Kyle's coattails since the beginning. Without Kyle, no Kim. But I could see Kyle on the show without Kim as a regular housewife.

Camille could easily be brought back as a full-time housewife (I think Bravo could start doing this with a select few ladies on various shows, from NYC to OC to NJ (Danielle!!!!); bringing back former castmembers as full-time again) but at the same time, she also fits well as a "friend of".

Taylor just needs to go. She's learned how to instigate and stir up chatter amongst other people's dramas, but her own drama is just a big ball of depression. It's actually kind of disturbing; she needs to get off reality TV and raise her daughter. It's pretty telling that most of her storyline this season was cut due to it being too much of a downer (and like I said, probably disturbing too).

Buh-bye Adrienne! Nice save, saying that you're leaving, before Bravo can boot ya. Vile creature.

If Kyle stays, I would welcome Faye as a housewife (I don't think that'll happen, she's already not a fan-favorite, but I think she'd be good at providing drama), as well as Marissa. Marissa doesn't have a dynamic personality, but she'd be a good filler to round out the cast, much like Taylor and Kim have done the past 2 seasons.

I hope Yolanda stays and starts attending more parties, as that's when the claws come out

As for NYC, I'm sad to hear they STILL haven't begun filming the new season yet, especially considering they're already ready to begin Season 4 for Beverly Hills! I really grew to love this crowd of NY ladies in reruns (season 3 is just epic; season 1 was such a chill relaxed "Manhattan Mommies" docudrama; I still have to watch the full run-through of seasons 2 and 4). I'd still welcome a return of Alex for season 6.

LOL Brandi definitely puts the REAL in Real Housewives. No holding back for this one! Luv.

Paul is a bitch in every sense of the word. He and Adrienne came off extremely bad on Monday's episode but I loved every moment of it. I saw no problem with Ken stepping in, as Paul and his mantitties were taking things way too far. He must really feel like he's one of the ladies. They're the most two-faced hypocritical liars I've seen since Kelly Bensimon from NYC (although she's just bat [!@#$%^&*] cray cray)

Yep. She missed S3 and that's why Jacq brought it S4 reunion. That heffa was all over the place. Jacq was the star of that reunion. She had me rolling as she kept spilling the tea--all of which I believed.

Ugh. Jacqueline behaved like a petulant lil brat, just as she did against Danielle in Season Two. She gets all this ammo and information piled up in her lil brain and goes to the reunion with guns blazing, ready to fire off at any chance she gets. She really is an adult child and it's no wonder her daughter has zero respect for her authority.

Well D.C, most of the housewives didnt live in D.C... they lived in the burbs. Chicago could have some housewives living in the North Shore (i.e. Evanston, Winneteka, Wilmette, Glencoe, Highland Park, etc).

Great idea, and add in my hometown (Naperville!) as well as the uppity wealthy suburbs of Hinsdale and Oakbrook and you've got some rich midwestern bitches!

Don't know if this has been brought up already (I'm playing catch-up on this thread), but there was a Real Housewives of The Gold Coast (one of the richest neighborhoods in Chicago) that was in the works (my husband knew one of the potential wives) but it fell though because apparently the Chicago ladies just didn't bring enough drama.

Adrienne has barely appeared in this season. She hasn't played the active role that Teresa has. She doesn't have interesting talking heads. She doesn't share her family life with the audience. Without her, I think the show still has a very interesting cast with a great dynamic. Caroline, Melissa, Jacqueline and Kathy have like nothing going for them. Pretty much 80% of their material revolved talking about Teresa and when they didn't, the show got real boring bc the women just aren't interesting on their own.

YUP!

As for a black woman on Beverly Hills, I'd LOVE to see someone like Robin Givens or Jasmine Guy! I don't know anything about their personal life or if they're still acting or whatnot, but I'd love to see either woman back on television, and these days, reality-TV is the way to go to boost your former career. They need a "black Heather Locklear" on this show, and either of these ladies would be delicious!

(I say "black Heather Locklear" cuz that's what Will Smith's character called Robin Givens' character on an episode of Fresh Prince, haha)

Marissa/Yolanda work for the reason Carole on NYC and Heather on OC work: They are the audience.

Its what NJ and ATL desperately need.

Very true. I hope one or both stay for next year.

I'm with all of you in our gradual adoration of Yolanda. I love seeing the dynamic that has developed between her and Lisa. Like someone else said, there's this unspoken understanding and respect for each other and I just LOVE that. THESE are two classy ladies that the other trolls can only dream of being. Brandi is like Lisa's long-lost daughter whom she looks out for and cherishes, knowing that despite her outbursts and unfiltered mouth, she will never be a fake, two-faced she-devil like the others.

Damn, Camille. You gotta come back over to the light.

Camille really should've remained on Team Lisa. Dumb blonde.

It would be interesting if Marisa (IF she were to remain and do something else other than complain about her husband) were to eventually side with Lisa and Brandi (a.k.a. the sane side), as she seems much more level-headed than her bff Splits.

Oh boy.... Jacqueline's back to her drunk twitter tantrums. Are we to assume that this phone conversation incident was taped and therefore will eventually be televised? Hopefully, *friend-of* Kathy will be having the phone conversation, not *housewife* Kathy

Last night's Atlanta was pretty boring. I knew we were in for a ho-hum episode when they started out the show with Porsha. Right there, I'm like, ooh, not a good way to start an episode. It was actually a sign of things to come. No NeNe except for that 90 second blip half-way through the episode? I loved seeing Cynthia not wasting her time on Porsha's airheaded ways and just said "thanks, but no thanks" to her help. Love! Meanwhile, Porsha's hubby seems way too controlling and bossy.

Looking forward to tonight's Beverly Hills!

What a great episode...

Camille revealed something about herself: she's stupid. She failed to realize that Brandi brought up Adrienne's 2% ownership of The Palms to illustrate how Pandora having her hen party at Planet Hollywood wouldn't have benefited Adrienne since she owns a tiny minority in the place...her grasping at straws with Lisa's 51% ownership of SUR was unfortunate to see. 51% is controlling interest, it's controlling ownership, 2% is an embarrassing minority interest that doesn't infer control.

Lisa, Empress of Beverly Hills, is the smartest woman to ever grace a Real Housewives franchise and any woman is a fool to challenge her. However, Lisa needs to borrow a line from RHOV's Ronnie Negus and "Know when to hold 'em and know when to fold 'em" when it comes to Kyle who is not her friend. Kyle is a bitch who doesn't like Lisa at all.

I could not stop giggling when Lisa said to Ken, "well I could say to Camille that lots of people think she's a silly cow." LOL Love how the British use that term.

I loved Lisa's line about "sometimes the silence from your friends hurts more than the words from your enemies." GREAT line.

Uh... WOW! Never knew this existed. I've found a new soap website to explore and explore! The page I landed on has loads of Melrose Place articles, so that just piqued my interest right there! Great job!

Yolanda has definitely won me over. I love how she can read people and put in her digs, but she doesn't seem catty at all; rather, she's voicing thoughtful observations over how some of these girls operate. It would be FABULOUS to see someone call Kyle out on her [!@#$%^&*] stirring and two-facedness. Looking forward to her showdown with Queen Lisa next week!

Camille just looked silly trying to downplay Lisa's role at Sur. Love how Lisa shot right back at her with the truth. There's no bull with this lady. She's the real deal and she will call you out if you try to mess with her. Love, love, love.

I just love how this show has transformed into a story about Lisa, Brandi, and all the cackling hens who hate on them.

Not once glimpse of Taylor for the past 2 episodes. So irrelevant.

Ugh, next week with Adrienne denying theatening to sue Brandi. This woman is full of LIES and it's written all over her botched up face.

Cheap, your signature is one of the funniest things I've ever seen! Why on earth did you put that walker in there? ROTF!

I frickin love it! Beyonce and Kelly are working it with their hair flipping all over the place, and then there's Michelle keeping it clean for Jesus.
