I myself don't find the Karen/Gizelle love/hate-fest to be tired. I think they, along with the likes of Robyn and Ashley, have the same type of onscreen chemistry and banter similar to Ramona/LuAnn/Sonja/Dorinda during their better years. I *do* think this reunion is going to be ugly though, with Candiace vs. Monique and Monique showing the receipts re: Gizelle/Charrisse/Candiace and the trainer being her secret babydaddy rumor B.S. However, if the Hugers and Darbys can let bygones be bygones, I suppose anything is possible in terms of reconciliations. That said, if I had to choose one versus the other, it's Monique all the way. She has the likeability, the family, the authenticity, the overall fabulosity... she just needs to rename her Not For Lazy Moms gig.

@Soapsuds Hey Ron, remember all those months back when you Mean Girled me with a "quit trying to make Kamala happen" remark? Guess what? It HAPPENED! LOL J/K buddy. I'm overjoyed. This has been such a wonderful celebratory weekend. That thing currently occupying the White House will soon be just another old white ranting 'n raving lunatic on Twitter. #GurlBye and wifey will divorce him by springtime for sure.

POTOMAC: What a wonderful treat to cap a wonderful joyous weekend of good news and merriment. I always laugh, chuckle and smile throughout my watching. I too love how Karen and Ashley of all people are the ones comforting each other and having honest, real conversations. I kind of get NYC sisterhood vibes from those two together, much like a LuAnn/Ramona relationship, where they have their ups and downs; their fun times and their bitter feuds, but at the end of the day they're in this together. I hope Monique will stick around for season 6 and they can be The Dream Team of Potomac. We watched the first few episodes of S1 from the marathon, and that was a trip. The etiquette crap was too much, and I'm so glad this show evolved into what it is today. Oh, and I warmed up to Katie Rost a little more this time around, but y'all know my disdain for Charrisse Jackson Jordon only grew stronger LOL. That woman had such a high opinion of herself based on no reason. And after seeing her droopy eyes come into the whisky tasting event, I'm convinced she spent half the season pre-gaming before shooting any scenes, didn't bother to check herself in the mirror beforehand, and then tried to fake being sober until everyone caught up to her. LOL Can't wait for next week with Ashley vs. the butter knife wielding guinea pig.

I was very glad to see that online and of course had to comment on it. Shut up! Sorry, a couple friends and I always end any conversation about LuAnn or housewives with an abrupt "Shut up!" in honor of her Viva la Diva song LOL

100% I was never a Tamra "fan" per se (I'm pretty much lukewarm on all the OC women in general, though I'm happy to see LIZZIE back next week!), but she was a necessary factor for this franchise. Sounds like heaven. Bring it on Kathy. LOL

Why didn't she just wait for him to die?

This big bruhaha over calling Gina's house "small" or "sad" is so blown over the top. It's very tits-on-an-ant nitpicky crap that Beverly Hills is always guilty of milking. I'm so blah over everyone in this. I feel for Braunwyn but she's also acting up goofy. Shannon being Shannon with her short-circuited Ramona-like meltdown, but not in a fun-to-watch way. Meanwhile, so far we've had Tamra appear in a flashback in every episode. Too bad they couldn't convince her to stay for the 6 episode arc.

I voted in person this morning. I'm in Dane County in Madison WI and got in line around 7:25am and was done by around 8:15ish. No craziness, just normalcy. Everyone masked up and 6 ft. apart. We're gonna flip Wisconsin back to blue

Yup, Wendy is a fail. She comes in too hard for no solid reason (first with Ashley, now with the Grande Dame). But I love how Karen saw Gizelle's messy ass was to blame for this. And I LOVED how Karen was able to turn this silly argument into something funny and hilarious with the sauntering/slithering walk, which resulted in nearly every woman doing "the walk" right out the door. Hilarious! Karen is the queen at taking a petty argument and turning it into lightness and fun, as most of these minor squabbles should be treated.

😂 Random and non-SBTB related but okay. Next time, it's gotta be a Bell boy

:::shrug::: That's certainly not Mark-Paul Gosselaar or Dustin Diamond 😂😂😂

Meh, diff'rent strokes, diff'rent folks I'm not invested in him as a person, I'm just admiring the view, even if his head is made of wax. LOL So glad to see this! Honestly, they could pretend Screech never existed and I wouldn't care.

Only 5? How New Jersey of them. I would've given someone a sixth spot (Tanya?). I guess this is Bravo's way of cutting costs, similar to soap operas when they started dropping people to recurring status to save on contract money.

I love that this show continues! HOWEVER... That said, this "sitcom" is really more of a drama nowadays. It's downright sad at some points. "Roseanne" was a show about life and laughs through the ups and downs. The Conners focuses too heavily on the economics of their situation and makes way too many jabs at their own poor existence. They've got to find a better balance. Sara Gilbert shouldn't have to shed tears EVERY episode.

It was a good book tho after I read it, I bought it on audiobook for my dad to listen to. He's blind both literally and figurately...

Agreed on the ho-hum deliveries. The visuals are nice, but it also comes off as generic/parody to me, but I suppose all new Housewives shows initially come off that way. Of course, I'll check it out. We all dogged Potomac when it premiered and it's practically the crown jewel nowadays, at least in terms of enjoyment if not for ratings/recognition. I wish there was some age variety. Reminds me of Dallas when it premiered, which I ended up not watching. Side note: my brother and his wife live just outside SLC. I hope they see someone they recognize or see them filming at some point next season

This makes me happy. Holla! And glad to see they're bringing back a former wife to mix with the veterans, versus building the show around Leah, as was rumored to be done. [Still holding out hope for some "friend of" scenes for Jill Zarin...]

Word on the street is Kathy Hilton will be an official “friend of” this next season of RHOBH.

@Vee Thanks for posting! Just like the 90210 reboot of 2008, I'll watch just for the original cast. We'll see if they're eventually faded out as the years progress. Mario Lopez defies age. Wow.

Ooh I'ma try that! Last April, the site I'd use to download YouTube videos (basically, you'd just type in "SS" before any YouTube link and it'd pull up Savefrom.net) shut down. POTOMAC: The gift that keeps on giving. +1 on not digging Dr. Wendy. Although it's good to add in a new person, I'm not sure she's gelling with this solid cast. Plus, the whole hypocrisy re: Monique and Karen. Monique looked blown back by Ashley's lil bombshell about Karen saying she'd press charges if she were in Guinea Pig's shoes (OMG, that guinea pig comment stuck in my head and now I LOL whenever she gets emotional and her nose gets pink). Robyn's wig... LOL. Gizelle's one redeeming quality is being genuinely happy and excited for her friend's engagement. Other than that? Nah... I can't wait for this reunion. They're about to film it Re: RHONY For me, Heather is one I didn't appreciate until she was gone. I'd love for her to return. I had hoped Jill would too since she made that "the bitch is back" snippet on social media awhile back. Maybe she'll attend some events and be a "friend of"?

LOL yeah, she caused drama (and therefore kept storyline moving) and isn't even on the show... though admittedly I wish she were. I keep waiting for the "A" players to show up. Gina vs. Braunwyn is yawn. At least Shannon seems happier in life these days. Side note: Eddie is in my top 3 hottest House husbands. Jussayin'...

Someone’s got a little too much time on her hands now that she’s been reduced to a “friend of” (allegedly)

I'm such a nerd, I love these! I also loved the one NYC used to do for a few seasons I think. The one I specifically remember was the end of Season 3.

Speaking of candidates whose children have drug problems...

Bravo to Bravo on that masterful editing job! lol
