He loves to drop F-bombs on this show and gets away with it (Connie Fückin-hairy).

Is it just me, or did I hear Maurice Benard say, “We’re gonna fûck this cancer together!”? It sure sounded like that.

Oof. Yes. Bershan is in there only once? Twice—heard her voice with the penis comment, then saw her face later.

LSV’s triceps tho. I see a lot of people commenting on the Quarter age difference when there’s just around 14 years between RS (born ‘68) and LSV (born ‘82).

Because whoever he is…

BTS just replaced themselves at No. 1!

I can imagine Claire leaning into screwball comedy with Jack/Carly. She loved hijinks between a crazy, kooky wild woman and a tsk-tsking man (like Lucy/Kevin or Lois/Ned—even though Jack wasn’t coded as strait-laced as those two.)

Very off-topic but I thought it was relevant to Housewives, considering how closely we parse character motivations and dynamics on these shows:

B&B has done some relatively recent location stuff: Australia in 2017 for the last Liam/Steffy wedding, I believe.

Are all these people playing? That’s actually a good bit of the top players—not necessarily a sure thing for Novak: Berrettini out, Fognini seeded:

It’s hard to imagine anyone being worse or lazier than Brad. RC can be plenty lazy himself (more in repeating plots like the masks and DID), but perhaps the half-hour format might tamp down on some of his excesses? I wonder if CBS would let him get away the gay content, but who knows? (Has anyone ever asked Brad Bell about his show’s lack of LGBT representation in portraying the fashion industry? Maybe around the time of the Maya reveal, or was he just patted on the back for his “bravery”?) If RC had his druthers, he would definitely made Vinny gay, but that would have been just as offensive as what Brad did (making a sidekick gay and obsessed with his straight/bi buddy, then potentially killing him off).

That is too funny:
