I don't suppose they could recast with Rosie O'Donnell?

BTW, speaking of early NYC days... a few weeks back when they re-aired the first season (only 7 episodes... I still have yet to see that 1st year reunion), sure enough you see the infamous Tom trying to hit on Ramona, her friend Joni (whom I always liked), and their friends. Tom is the fool who calls Joni "promiscuous."

And we thank you for it What's crazy is that when I came aboard the Housewives train in early 2011, NYC was already debuting season 4 and my future hubby had to fill me in on the great "Bethenny Frankel" of which I knew nothing about, way back when. I had so much fun catching up on their first three years and love when they rerun them. That season provided some amazing "gif worthy" moments too, LOL

I know I purposely buried my head in the sand regarding anything Roseanne said/did/tweeted pre-2018, so this whole mess has been disheartening and sad, as a longtime supporter of her as a comedienne and a huge fan of the original "Roseanne" series, which I still maintain is my all-time favorite sitcom. I really hope she seeks mental health treatment. If we're seeing Gabby and Tess and Niki in action, I'ma need Roseanne's gatekeeper to keep 'em all in check.

I'll be catching up tonight! Meanwhile, yesterday Bravo ran some episodes and reunion of Season Three, the best most delicious season of all housewives shows, IMO

Indeed, and thank you for reiterating my point. Politics was episode 1; episodes 2-9 were not. But it doesn't matter now.

My analogy is simply in regards to a show going on without the matriarch, especially when the show itself is named after said matriarch. #respecttovalerieharper

I can only imagine how Sara Gilbert, etc. will feel towards her now. I'm guessing there won't be many cast reunion specials with them for Good Morning America, Entertainment Weekly magazine, etc. anytime in the next decade now.

"Roseanne's Family." "The Conner Family." Where's Sandy Duncan when you need her to keep the show going? I suppose Roseanne owns too much of the show, though...

I'm very disappointed to say the least. "Love the sinner, hate the sin," but damn lady, I can't stan for you anymore...

I'd have to disagree there. The numbers were still phenomenal for 2018, and political discussion was only showcased for one single episode.

I want to compare them to a Porsha (dumb) versus Sheree (broke), but they're both broke. I'm amazed at how dumb Robyn is.

She sure did and Bethenny said she'd give Omarosa 10K if she were correct. I wonder if she ever paid up.

I have grown to love this "Christmas at Dorinda's at The Berzerkshires" tradition. As a total Christmas whore, the holiday porn is total heavenly overload for me, lol. I enjoyed the lightheartedness with Dorinda, Carole, and Ramona. First of all, I'm *finally* giving a damn about Carole. Secondly, it's funny to see her and Ramona finally getting along (Carole used to be so dismissive of loopy Pinot Singer). I concur with you all in that Bethenny has met her match in a verbal smackdown against Carole. Carole isn't getting flustered and tongue-tied as the rest of them do. She's remaining calm, standing her ground, and making her point heard. Bethenny's responses weren't even solid answers and made her look stubbon, determined to be mad at Carole for something, no matter if she pinpoints exactly why or not. Sonja getting rid of some pets is a step in the right direction, I guess. It'll help with the upkeep, or lack thereof, with her house. Her new talking head is much more flattering; she looks like she was born anatomically female again.

I hope next season will help fill in the gaps of the last 20 years, such as Andy, Jerry, The Lunchbox, Leon, etc. Another thing about Crystal which was pretty much forgotten about except for that one episode in season 6 - she is married to Dan's father. I'm assuming Ed died in the last 20 years. I always thought it strange when Dan mentioned "I haven't spoken to my dad in 2 years," at Darlene/David's wedding, when Ed was supposedly living right there in Lanford with Crystal since they got married. Side note: I wonder how Crystal's son Lonny turned out?

Potomac Season 3 has mastered what makes juicy, salacious, messy reality TV so good. This show is giving me everything Beverly Hills didn't. Other than watching Kim Zolciak die at the reunion, Atlanta was pretty ho-hum this year too. Thank goodness we have New York and Potomac to lift our spirits in Spring as we head into sunny summer. I really need to do a google search on Ashley's husband's gay dalliances abroad... unless someone here knows the Cliffs Notes?

What's the tea? I haven't the energy to follow Twitter wars and back 'n forth threads.

Potomac was SO good on Sunday. I echo what everyone else said. Love the Young Bucks vs. Geriatrics. The 3 youngsters have such a great fun camaraderie. Thank goodness we have Ashley on this show to stir the tea, bridge the communication gaps, plus showcase her own real-life drama. I am finally coming around to finding Gizelle an annoying hater. Her tagline is dripping with irony because nobody's talking about her. Her romance (is the dude checked out already?) isn't the topic of discussion, her kids are doing fine. What IS the word on the street about her? Nothing. Oh Monique, your drinking habits are starting to resemble some of our favorite New York City ladies. Hire a nanny, grieve the loss of your unborn baby, and slow down. I'm anticipating a friendship breakdown with Monique vs. Charriissee down the line. Charriissee will side with the old hags and resent Monique for siding with the younger, prettier enemy.

Oh I'll never stop enjoying my dislike of that couch stain. But you summed up exactly why she's perfect as a "friend of": no personal or interesting life, but can stir up drama among the main housewives. The fact that she has history with the "elders" of this series helps make her personal digs more biting.

This is a great group of women to love-to-hate That wig sliding off was LOL hilarious.... Charrriiisssee still has that perpetual sleepy stank face.... Robyn paying someone for decorations that are pretty basic & standard is a waste of money that should be saved.... Ashley's problem is the only organic problem on the show (well, the Hugers' money woes are real too, but someone is being evasive about the whole ordeal) .... Monique continues to be fabulous.... Candace (I'm not spelling it however she does) is cute but is too thirsty to reveal too much about her personal life, her finances, her man's brown dong, etc. This doesn't charm you?

Finally caught up on NYC. I'm sticking with Team Dorinda. I don't find her to be a mean drunk, but rather a blunt drunk. It's got to be exasperating, whether drunk or sober, to put up with Sonja's delusions about her own life and the frivolous mean-nice chatter that Sonja blurts out. Very telling that Ramona now considers to be closer to LuAnn than Sonja. OMG, Carole. Great, you ran a marathon. So have I. So have thousands upon thousands of others. You got a toast and a cake. Now shut up.

That's remarkable. These days, high numbers for reruns is something only CBS shows can boast (who knows, maybe half their viewers forgot seeing it the first time 'around...). She was close to No. 1 every single half-hour.

Call of death for Kim Zolciak Biermann: Sunday, April 22nd 2018 at 8:59 ET / 7:59 CT. That was one of the most satisfying reunions I have ever had the pleasure of watching. Every single person (except Sheree, who's next on the chopping block) came for Kim, which was loooooooooong overdue. I was so proud of Cynthia throwing out those zingers as sloth continued her side digs about Cynthia being irrelevant or coming to others' defenses. You could totally tell Cynthia was through being nice to sloth and came right out with the rest of 'em, reading her for filth and making zero apologies about doing so. NeNe, Kenya, Kandi, Cynthia hell even Porsha. They all came for Kim and had the receipts (and Bravo had the clips!) to back it up. It was delicious. Reality TV trash at its finest. And I gotta give props to Porsha (whom I've never been a fan of) for calling out Sheree for trying to dodge being in the hot seat when they called her out for not being loyal, failing at her "bone collector" job, etc. Porsha's quips and cheeky smirk at the end was brilliant. Wow, those stupid racist comments at the end, when all of Wig's chips were down... that'll be her undoing. God-willing. "She has to get back to Tardy for the Party!" lol I hope it's the last season that dies a slow painful ratings death on a Friday night.

Finally caught up on Beverly Hills. Wow, what a lackluster season finale. Kyle is a victim again, wash-rinse-repeat. A fight that stems last year's flimsy "pantygate" storyline. Oy. Ladies and producers, y'all gotta pull this show back together before it comes a non-factor like New Jersey. I know they've got it in them. They've got the star power and recognition. They just need to stop worrying about fan reaction and thinking of the newest gif-worthy moment in their talking heads.
