@Cheap21 @Cat @Antoyne @Taoboi @Mr. Vixen @DaytimeFan @Chris B@Gray Bunny--I present to you the official s10 trailer of RHOA: 

 

Omg thank you boo. Wow Cynthia might actually get an interesting storyline for once. Couldn't figure out what Kandi's story will be, she seems less turnt this season thank god.

Honestly I was too distracted by all of NeNe's awful hairdos to really latch on anything else lol

Shannon is OBSESSED with Vicki. She was beyond excited they got to share that scene in Kelly's bedroom. 

Honestly group scenes like tonight make me love Peggy. She literally could not stop laughing during the drama.

Ouch. Eddie the gym owner should have thought twice before retweeting that. I thought he'd keep quiet and stay out of the drama.

 

I honestly feel like I am watching the OC franchise implode before my very eyes. And not in an entertaining way, but in a totally ignominious way.

I will say it's still more enjoyable than those awful years of the Gorgas vs. Guidices that RHONJ is still trying to recover from. Ultimately Bravo just has to say, Tamra or Vicki. The rest will work itself out.

@Cat Can you imagine if it had been Kathryn, Vanderpump, and Dorit vs. Erika and Rinna? Erika could hardly handle Dorit on her own, if the three came at her she'd quit.

On another BH note, the ladies were all together for NYFW (I trust and believe this was filmed for the new season!), looking spectacular in fall fashions.

 

Dorit got a feature in something called Bella magazine so the ladies came out in support at the launch party. 

 

I think this is the most conservative I have ever seen Erika look! She looks like a Fox News anchor!

 

 

 

 

New hairstyle for Rinna:

 

 

Kyle with Teddi, the new HW. I'm so glad Kyle's iconic long hair is back:

 

 

 

Cute! Looks like the rumors are true of these three being a trio:

Bad old Season 6 BH is showing in syndication where I am. Watching the Reunion, I am struck at how much I really liked Kathryn and wish she was given a second chance on this show. #JusticeForKathryn. Also struck at the way she held her own when Erika went after her. She mentioned something that I missed the first time -- how in Dubai Erika talked sh!t constantly about the women and how badly they dressed/looked both on and off camera. Spill the tea, Kathryn! Cut to the next season, when they all went to Hong Kong, and Erika was visibly irritated when the other women upped their game and showed up to dinner with great outfits, hair and make-up.  I believe even LVP changed her stylist between season 6 and 7. 

I too was a fan of Kathryn. I'm not sure why they couldn't bring her back AND add Dorit. She would've done better than cuckoo Eden.

I'm rewatching right now and I'm so sad about what Jeana has done to her face. 

Meghan is a hypocritical dumbass.

You lost me at "hot boyfriend."  

 

Seriously though, and in answer to your question... It's all subjective. I have been watching RHONY since day one and did I unanimously like Luann throughout those 9 seasons? No, ofc not. These women show so much bad alongside their good sides. However, if I supported Lu this season even through a dodgy marriage... it's because I find her more likeable than someone like Carole or Bethenny. I think Lu was tired of being lonely, and desperate to get married, that she jumped on this D'Agostino relationship like the last chance saloon. And now she's licking her wounds. I could laugh at her and crow about how pathetic she is, but... eh. I like her and feel for her.

 

I don't know if you watched RHONY last year, and maybe then, too, you thought Bethenny and Carole were fantastic, but I thought they were awful. Luann was kind of minding her own business and doing her Tom thing offscreen, but these two decided to attack her from the get-go. They were really mean and spiteful, and since then I cannot find their putdowns entertaining. Not to mention, the way they went after Jules about her anorexia, goading her almost to the point where they seemed to want her to fall off the wagon. I found them smug and pretentious and cruel -- all the things you didn't, I guess. I don't really want to see a third straight season of Luann being torn apart while Andy Cohen's BFFs and the housewife with producer powers on the show stack the deck against her.

 

On another note, IA about what you said regarding the HWs who voted for Trump. I also agree about LVP in that I am hoping she gets more real this coming season. I can't do another season where she hides her pot-stirring and gives Rinna and Erika yet another reason to lord it over her. In other news, Yolanda's book 'Believe Me'  comes out today. Tamara Tattles has a great write-up of the costs associated with her crazed health journey. It is... insane.

 

 

This OC trailer is incredible. Bravo should have scrapped 98% of the first half of this season and just done 8 episodes of all of this. Iceland looks like it was incredible. Love the two Norsemen in wigs duking it out interspersed with footage of the ladies going at it! OC's editors are always the best.

 

P.S.: Meghan is the worst! So insufferable.

 

P.P.S.: I really like the Brandi-Stephanie-Cary trio on Dallas. *hides*

I could not agree more with everything you said regarding Luann, Beth, and Carole. Perfect.

God Miami s2 is easily top 3 season of all time for Housewives. Perfectly cast and the perfect use of Friend ofs. Bravo truly can't get out of its own way sometimes. 

Dorit as Erika's pawn is quite unfortunate as the most redeeming quality about Dorit was that she wasn't afraid of Erika. God is Erika going to make me team Kyle? I'm NEVER team Kyle.

Luann as a single divorced girl...her and Ramona competing for men...carole and Luann having beef... Bethenny isn't needed...she can exit stage left. 

I think Bethenny repaired her image enough that it would be perfect for her to leave now.

Totally agree about the Luann interview. And I too hope she gets a nice little something on the UES! Or at the very least, midtown.

 

Here is Sarah Paulson and Elisabeth Moss playing Dorinda and Bethenny  I adore Dorinda, so totally support Sarah Paulson's love for her.

 

 

lol you can tell Sarah actually really watches, at parts her Dorinda is spot on from that scene in Mexico.

Count me in as someone hoping for fun single Luann next season.

"QUIET, RADZIVILL!"

LOL YES! Exactly

I've actually enjoyed Carole and Luann as associates now so I'll be sad to see them going back to rivals. Carole always looks so desperate when she's in attack mode against Luann because Luann literally doesn't give a [!@#$%^&*] about her or her opinions. I loved last year's reunion when she kept telling Carole to shut up.

Thanks for posting! 

 

Ugh, the ONE time I want Jacqueline back would be to see icy, calculated Danielle rip her a new one. Some of these 'wives escape their comeuppances, and Wacko Jacquo is one of them. Although to be fair, she came off messy as hell last season so that is pretty much good enough for now. 

Jacqueline looked like a legit crazy person last season. Terrible note to go out on.

I liked Tinsley enough for a second season. Her having formed a genuine friendship with Carole is great especially because Bethenny can't hide her dislike of it at all.

It boggles the mind why Gretchen was not invited in a Luann-as-FOH role where she essentially appears in all the episodes (as opposed to just one!). Looks to me like Tamra pulled rank (I'm assuming Vicki would have been a-ok with Gretchen's return). I could even have withstood a glimpse of that toad Slade if it meant we got to see Tamra rattled by Gretchen showing up to all the events!

 

Speaking of rattling Heather... Kelly isn't gripping me this season either.

 

Kenya showing up married on RHOA and all the women gossiping about it sounds to me like a strong opening story for this upcoming season. Better than Sheree pretending that Shack Sheree is 'almost' finished, and that She By Sheree actually exists.

Kelly like Lydia came in strong and hot this season but now has come to a screeching hault. This season thus far totally blows. I actually love OC, but they've made the fatal mistake of letting the wives dictate this season and it's suffering.

Some fans cannot differentiate between hate and love-to-hate sadly. It's possible to dislike a HW and recognise what she can bring to a franchise. I hate Kim Z but still appreciate what she brought to Atl's first three seasons. OC is a case in point where the bores are clearly hurting the show. As standalones, imo Peggy Lydia and Meghan are unworthy of being called HWs. I just don't give a [!@#$%^&*] about them or their lives. Kenya? After the Matt drama and her wedding and her dynamic with Nene and Marlo, I really want to see what is going on with her this season. Her secret wedding went and upped anticipation for season 10 imo.

See I don't love to hate Kenya. I genuinely do not want to watch her at all. Whereas I would say I love to hate Gizelle's hatin ass on Potomac. Peggy, Lydia, and Meghan are all awful and total wastes. Lydia started strong on her first episode and then went completely back to boring as [!@#$%^&*].

From your mouth to god's ears that this will be Kenya's last season. I would do such a happy dance if she finally quit.

Overall I enjoyed the reunion and this season of RHONY. I liked that the producers pretty much made sure the cast couldn't ice anyone out. I could've done with less Bethenny though. The fact that we have to literally hear her opinion on absolutely everything is annoying as [!@#$%^&*]. She was better this season, but I definitely would be fine if this was her swan song. I don't need Bethenny Frankel's RHONY.

Tamra's heinous actions of the past aren't shown b/c Andy is protecting her. He adores TamRat and all her antics. He is on the bandwagon of pushing the image that she a "changed woman" since Vicki tarnished her image due to Brooks/cancer-gate. That's why I get so happy when Tamra's a** gets pelleted with questions about her gutter past on the reunion. It is then that she has to be honest, and the few (and I mean few) fans that have forgotten her past are reminded of how she used to be. 

 

Tamra is no better than Vicki. She brings up Brooks all the time to beat Vicki down, but I wish Vicki would just flatline Tamra's a** by bringing up TamRat trying to push her icky son into sexually assaulting Gretchen. 

Someone should regularly tweet that to Vicki so she does bring it up this year.

I'm tired of this narrative that Tamra is some saint. Anyone who watched this show prior to season 9 (or somewhere around there) knows that she is the most vile housewife... ever.

 

What purpose does Megan serve?

 

@Nothin'ButAttitude Thank you for sharing the article about Vicki and Tamra's feud and the fact that their jobs are safe. Maybe Shannon will be the one to get cut at the end of this season.

 

This show needs a major shake up, so I wouldn't mind it if Bravo said goodbye to 3 or 4 current housewives and brought in some new blood for this show.

Omg thank you. This show literally pretends we didn't watch Tamra for 5-6 years prior being one of the most down in the gutter, awful Housewives of all time. This bullshit now where because of her stupid ass baptism, none of that ever occurred is so [!@#$%^&*] annoying.

Watching part of the wall come down so easily truly was an Oh Sh!t moment.

I have zero problem with Tinsley not voting, both candidates sucked.

Not at all. She'll always be one of soaps' heavy hitters. I never read much opinions on social media, but I wonder how well-liked Eileen was to those who weren't already familiar with her daytime work. I think she was generally well-received her first season, and then became a nuisance (and later, just kinda there) once she began her lil' tiff with LVP.   Overall, I think her Housewives legacy will be mainly forgettable, while her daytime fans will always cherish her. 

 

I agree that The OC has found themselves in a precarious situation going forward. Vicki has become the Danielle Staub of OC, but she *is* the show, and someone has to film with her. I think @Nothin'ButAttitude is absolutely right that if Bravo were seriously thinking of cutting one of the biggies and Tamra felt her reality TV job was on the line, she'd cozy back up to Vicki, on-screen only. 

 

What's funny is when Eileen became so unbearable on Housewives, I started dreading seeing her on Y&R when I've always really liked Ashley.
