OMG I didn't even recognize her until I read that part where you say it's Carole!

omg that dog

Totally. Part of it is the shorter, blonder hair, and the fact that she trained for the marathon, but the other part is a face lift, a brow lift, and more cheek fillers.

I didn't recognise Carole here either (also, whatever Tinsley is doing to her nose, she needs to stop).

Dare I say it - I sort of want Brandi back.  Brandi vs. Erika.  Brandi vs. LVP.  It would finally be interesting again.

Lots of people want Brandi back and at this point it could happen. Though I imagine Brandi would align with Erika because her hate for LVP to this day is all-encompassing. And that would mean 3 people (Rinna, Erika, Brandi) actively hating on LVP on and off the show, 4 if we count Kyle's little jabs, and possibly 5 if Dorit turns. Which would be less fun for me to watch as I hate when the entire pack gangs up on one person (see BH S4, NY S8, OC, etc).

NY is getting better, but they're bad too. It looks like only Carole is getting a new shot for the upcoming season. 

 

BH:

 

Erika continues to be an insufferable twat. I truly never understand why the audience gravitated to this whoremonger. I wish Teddi would've socked her ass. 

lol sounds to me like Carole got so much plastic surgery this year that RHONY were forced to re-shoot her shots so we'd be able to recognise this new blonde 48-year old in our midst!

Erika was a stuck-up b!tch from day one. However, the mega marketing blitz (from Bravo's numerous platforms and online presence, to YouTube comments, to literally every Real Housewives podcast out there) has been OVERWHELMING the past 3 years. They worked overtime to make her happen. Seeing her exposed last week felt like vindication for everything my gut was telling me about Erika, even though I went against that and tried to embrace the positive in her many times.

It's a small moment, but when she told Dorit last week to "Leave that" re: Teddi, I was disgusted with how she dehumanised somebody she had just ganged up on. 'That'? I also hate how Rinna, who I actually want to enjoy this season, brown-noses Erika and literally follows her directive in everything.

Kim clearly is here because she needs that check. She doesn’t even like the other ladies or even pretend to I feel like, so her coming back full time next season would just be stupid.

 

It seems Sheree forgot what happened to her the last time she was so hardcore anti-Nene. She lost her damn job.

Kim and Brielle went to a Kardashian party not so long ago (they documented it breathlessly on their Twitter) and elbowed their way into a selfie with their idols. They want to pretend they hang in the same circles as the Ks. On Sunday's WWHL, Kim also kept saying how much she 'loves' Kyle and LVP. I think the delulu one seriously thinks Bravo will move her, Kroy and the 17 feral children to LA so she can appear on BH?!

If Sheree wants to be hardcore anti-Nene, let her. If she loses her job, though, it's because she is boring as f with nothing to offer. A fake romance with Prisoner 1345875 who we never see is not a SL! And neither is Chateau She-Broke which 40 years later is STILL uninhabitable and un-paid-for.

I can't believe I'm actually excited for this show to return. They're all such triflin' posers (except Monique) but I can't help but watch. Poor sloppy Charriissee didn't make the cut! 

 

Atlanta: 

I loved the end of yesterday's episode when Kandi got fed up with Kim and started with her pissed-off-but-crying voice. Kim can NOT take it, but loves to dish it, and I cannot wait for her distorted face to get all flustered at the reunion. 

Excited about Potomac too -- even with drama, it pulls off the light moments. I also remember back to last reunion when Ashley was talking about her marriage problems, and all the HWs pretty much rallied around, knowing this was serious and real. 

LOL I'm so pleased that the one person even more obsessed by Karen's 'grand dame' status than Karen herself has been downgraded to FOH. Charrisse was so focused on 'bringing her down,' it really reflected badly on her. I don't blame her for being obsessed, though -- I am too! As big a poseur as Karen is, I enjoy her by far the most. Looks like she is bringing it this season.

Re: ATL. I have been waiting YEARS for Kandi to finally confront Kim properly. That trifling, lying heffa used Kandi and threw her to the side when it came time to pay dues. Kim reaps the rewards of the work & creativity of others (often AAs) in an underhanded way, and quickly lawyers up. People get irritated when Kandi does her shaky-voice-cry but I understand it. Her anger reaches such a level that she has to cry. Kim keeping Kroy on standby while Kandi was talking to her was the worst. I hope she gets her ass handed to her at reunion but I heard she runs out of there too!

Sheree is such a non-entity. I keep forgetting she is on the show.

omg

I’m so over Atlanta! This season has bored me to tears and I would love to give it up!

I am still some episodes behind because I just do not feel the urge to finish watching. The past two seasons have not been stellar but this season felt unwatchable to me. Not quite OC-unwatchable, but close.

Early reports shocking as they sound are making it sound like Kenya actually had Poorsha's back at this reunion. 

 

They also say that she dropped the baby bombshell on them and quit, too.

 

I can't wait to see if any of it is true. If so, she's at least leaving on a high.

 

 

ETA: Oh, the girls all definitely ganged up on Wig, prompting her daughter to defend her mama on Twitter...Twitter promptedly dragged daughter as well...since Wig got what she deserved for the mess they brought this season.

Damn damn DAMN! She quit on them? Yessss go Kenya

Brielle needs to sit her lazy ass down and hush. This bimbo left her purse in her UNLOCKED car this week and promptly went on Twitter to complain when it got stolen. Duh. And Wig dishes it out but she can't take it.

Reunion rumors:

 

-Porsha had a super easy reunion

- Kim got dragged super hard and ran off the stage in tears

- Kenya shocked EVERYONE by announcing she’s pregnant

- Marlo came for Kenya HARD

- Kim was sitting beside Andy when she came out (beside Porsha)

- ...Again.

-  It's been a while since we saw Kim's crocodile tears. Hope all that Botox doesn't impede her ability to emote.

- She's 47 year's old. Medical science is shocked!

- Marlo is trying to secure a peach, but for somebody so trashy, she sure is dull.

- That was probably her stipulation for showing up to reunion in the first place. I hate how Andy attributes RHOA's success to her.

I'm hoping she got KIm Z shook. I mean, we all know Kenya can demolish Poorsha, but that's an unequal fight given that P is such a dim bulb.

#MyJobisDone maybe means she is ready to move on from RHOA. Which is a shame as I don't feel Eva/Marlo/Shamea combined are worthy replacements.

All of this Erika hate just fills me with nothing but joy. I haven't watched yet but I will in a bit. You guys have me so excited. And once upon a time I enjoyed Brian Moylan's recaps but it became abundantly clear last year that he would never say anything wrong about Erika and definitely not now that he's on the payroll. I think it's time he hands the reigns over to someone else at this point.

I hope you won't be disappointed! I feel like we built the episode up with our rantings. But honestly Erika and Dorit made my blood boil. I trust they are still getting dragged across social media.

Erika gives ALL the f*cks with how sensitive she is. She can’t keep her anger bottled up an entire season. This is two in a row now. 

 

Rinna does look bored but this has been a reparative season for her image because she’s flying mostly under the radar and isn’t looking for conflict. Her VT in last night’s episode where she said she didn’t believe Teddi was stirring anything up is a good example. If she bails, she should bail after one more season where she is lots of fun. End on a high, not a whimper. 

It's crazy how Erika is actually the opposite of who she claims to be. I couldn't believe it when she smirked about "Ms. Crybaby" and "that's just how life works" in her VT. She is so achingly desperate to appear cool and tough. Yeah, it's real tough out there on the mean streets of Pasadena. The mere sight of somebody else's vulnerability drove her into a rage; the irony is that as a viewer I found Teddi's tears -- a weakness according to Erika -- a sign of Teddi's strength. Erika, by contrast, looked completely ridiculous. Cruel. Played out.

I hope so re: Rinna. She looks like she is trying to ape Erika with the coolness and 'shady' VTs, but it's not a role that fits her well. Rinna is better when she lets her dork flag fly and puts her foot in her mouth.

Well, I hope you at least stay around for the moment hinted at in blogs and I know you don't like her, but you might be on her side when she does when Kyle goes in on Erika. 

I have noticed that Kyle has been less kiss-assy of Erika this season -- and Erika less kiss-assy of producer Kyle. I'll believe it when I see it though. And I never rule out another S2 Reunion surprise where Kyle turns on LVP and aligns herself with Erika and the Supremes Dorit and Rinna.

The blog is a must read. Teddi annihilated Erika. Erika is already on the defensive calling Teddi’s blog “pure comedy” but we all know why she doesn’t like it: Teddi nailed it. 

 

While Dorit is a really crap person I can’t say she’s completely heartless. I can’t say the same for Erika. She is so clinical and cold. The lights might be on but nobody seems to be home. Nasty and cruel.

Erika's 'pure comedy' remark on Twitter already got some great rebuttals! "Humiliating someone is 'pure comedy.' Check your values." Another one: "Your behavior and outfits this season are pure comedy, honey." My fave: "Temporary amnesia...but only you can call people liars, at least she said it to your face and not the camera."

Erika is acting all no f***s to give on Twitter, but we all know she gives a great many f***s. She already has her own fans canceling their pre-orders of her book.

I could very well see Teddi choosing not to come back for another season of RHOBH, if she's smart.  She's fighting a losing battle.. and she seems to have a nice husband and family plus a fairly decent career.

I wonder if Erika and Rinna will bail before Teddi. Rinna seems bored, and the heat is turning up on Erika.

OMG Teddi’s blog this week DESTROYS Erikunt! If they don’t bring her back for a 2nd season I’m DONE!

 

http://www.bravotv.com/the-real-housewives-of-beverly-hills/season-8/blogs/teddi-mellencamp-arroyave/i'm-a-woman-with-emotions?amp&__twitter_impression=true

Her blog is 🔥🔥🔥🔥 !

"Erika and Dorit [...] couldn’t be my clients, because I only accept women who are able and willing to look at themselves truthfully. I assume the issue with this/me is that I’m holding up a mirror to the truth and it irritates them."

"It seems like Erika is enjoying the rift between LVP and Dorit more than she lets on. Or she’s just not sure of how to function in a legitimate friendship that isn’t somebody telling her how amazing she is on a loop."

"Oh, and crybaby? Sure, I’m a woman with emotions, and I cried [...] What’s not natural is for you to stop another woman from trying to comfort somebody who’s obviously upset. But all bow to Regina Jayne. I won’t be sitting at that table. I prefer genuine people and feelings over ice and diamonds."

@Nothin'ButAttitude @Faulkner @MrPrezident @DaytimeFan @Gray Bunny @Taoboi Done with all these b!tches making Teddi cry and trying to convince the audience we didn't see conversations that we SAW ON SCREEN.

Rinna defending Erika and Dorit like a bobble-headed Sarah Huckabee Sanders was embarrassing. She rags on LVP's age almost every episode, but at least LVP's memory isn't in pieces like the Selective Amnesia Twins! I choked when Rinna said Dorit is a dolphin in a sea of sharks.  Yeah she is -- and you and Erika are the sharks, Rinna! This entire Erika-Dorit-Rinna 'friendship' is cooked up to get one over LVP in front of camera and behind the scenes. LOL I know people will think I am a delusional LVP stan for saying that, but everything about this new little trifecta [(c) Ramona Pinot] smells strategic and fake.

Erika is a contrived mess of stale glam-squad fingersnaps. She has zero authenticity. Every word she uttered sounded ripped from a bad teen movie, while everything Teddi was saying about Dorit's lies and Erika's fake amnesia was pure truth. Teddi is everything Erika says she is but isn't. I'm glad she's getting dragged on Twitter. When even her die-hard fans are calling BS, you know the bloom is off the rose.

Dorit is dog-s***. The way she physically dragged a quietly-weeping Teddi out of the restaurant hissing "You have no right to be upset, I'M the one who should be upset" was borderline evil. Then she pretended that she showed her out because she "cannot bear to see anybody cry" -- B!TCH. I hope your ass gets ROASTED at Reunion!

Not just her fangurl. He "co-wrote' Erika's very-soon-to-be-released book and is with her on all promotional interviews for it. He is basically her new Mikey. 

This peripheral RH story unites two of my favourite things: b!tchy (ex) HWs and duelling skincare lines. It's Glow by Jabot vs Beauty of Nature.

http://www.eonline.com/news/919084/the-7-craziest-things-said-by-the-real-housewives-of-potomac-in-the-season-3-trailer

So Charisse, who is deathly obsessed with Karen's Grande Dame status and renovated a guest bedroom 'champagne room' in her house, is now reduced to FOH? That must sting!

Don't care much about Ashley's marriage. Most of it played out organically last season. I hope Robyn is leaving Juan's disrespectful ass. I am shocked about Karen's. Black Bill Gates asked for a divorce?? Say it isn't so! I am legit surprised by that and the blue-eyes cheating allegations. 

Gizelle... sigh. Sometimes I like you, sometimes I don't.

Glad Katie is not back. Not only was she like watching paint dry, but all those foundations she 'chaired' were dodgy as hell. I have a feeling not a penny raised went anywhere near a charity. Unless we're talking about the charity that begins at home lol.

But wasn't she at one point? After all, wasn't Lips trying to get on the show for a while before she actually did?

 

 

Yeah, I didn't like that at all. Erika has fallen so far since her first season. Bully is not a good look on her. But as that promo reveals (and there was some picture I believe floating around at some point) I am looking forward to Kyle calling her out. Cuz you know it must be bad when KYLE does it. 

I don't know and can only speculate. But my impression is the Hustler chickened out for S1 because BH was an unknown entity. As its fame quickly grew, she came knocking again. I remember her on WWHL gushing like a fan and name-dropping Kyle. Which is also why I don't buy her recent story that she has never watched the early seasons when her pre-BH appearances on WWHL seemed to suggest otherwise.

Erika kind of was bully-ish from day one. She and Yolanda (two peas in a pod) orchestrated the Munchausen witch-hunt. I remember the BBQ at Erika's house where Yolanda showed up and they confronted Rinna about Munchausen, and Erika screamed at Rinna "TELL US WHO F*CKIN TOLD YOU TO SAY IT!" Because Yolanda was busy cryo-freezing the Lyme out of her system much of the time, it was left to Erika to play the enforcer.

Ugh, Erika. What a humourless bitch. I can't wait for her book to flop, just like she flopped on DWTS. She is extremely overestimated. 

The amount of gushing and adulation she gets is insane. It's everywhere, on every blog, podcast or article about BH I read. It's got to the point where I actually wonder if I'm nuts for not getting it. I want to like her but there is no humor or shading with her. Everything is so literal. 

Everything Teddi relayed to LVP and Kyle about what Dorit said was Facts Only. Seeing Erika go after the newbie to score points for herself is so... pedestrian. Doesn't every low-ranking HW striving for relevancy do this in order to assure her place on the show? Isn't that beneath *Mikey finger-snaps* the Kween of Mykanos? Erika and Rinna are trying to make Teddi the fall guy for the season while Teflon Dorit slithers away unscathed. Erika likes to pretend she's the only one on the show who calls it like it is, but Teddi is fast taking on that mantle now. Plus I don't think Teddi is intimidated by Erika's Tom's money either.

I LOVED this episode of BH - LVP assassinated Dorit with sniper precision.

 

Kiss the ring, Dorit, The Queen has spoken.

LVP did it perfectly. You know everyone else will talk smack about the 'sniper' waiting to punish Dorit publicly... but this is hardly revenge in the most evil sense of the word. Dorit talked behind LVP's back, LVP knows it and has mostly forgiven her, but is going to toy with her a little bit to remind Dorit not to become too complacent. Even PK seems to understand this and made no effort to make a scene and defend his very own Donna Martin like some porky David Silver. 

From the previews, looks like some of the women are out to get Teddi. It's a shame, because I am warming to her. Teddi makes her own mind up and is not swayed by the other women. Some would say LVP might have a problem with somebody like that, but -- surprise, surprise -- it is self-proclaimed truth-bombers Erika and Rinna who are gunning for her. Rinna was on WWHL recently and there was suggestion that Teddi should be fired after this season. So the agenda is clear here.

Speaking of Rinna... I'm wondering if this is her final season. She seems ready to bow out after four seasons. Her heart is not into it, she's not really filming with the others and doesn't seem particularly close with any of them tbh.

Apparently they were also filming at Stephanie’s housewarming party and Brandi was there. 

So they ARE filming for S3. That's great! 

Glad all the cast is back. I'm not wild about Kameron but I can take her in small doses. Brandi is needed for pot-stirring and drama. And D'Andra has been a revelation. 

RHOD cast celebrating D'Andra and her husband's 4-year wedding anniversary in full length gowns, in true 80s Dallas style. Tammy Faye Bakker Mama Dee was there too! Only person missing was Brandi (hmmmm). I wonder if Dallas is filming and if this party was included in the filming. I sure hope so! Dallas deserves a S3. It was arguably the best franchise of 2017.

No dice...luann is evil and karma is finally punishing her for all the crap she put Bethenny and Alex through.  I felt the same way when Ramona had the rig pulled out from under her by Mario.  Karma is a bitch 

Luann is evil? That's going a bit far... not when we have so much real evil going on in the world right now! As far as karma is concerned, Luann got paid back and then some. She had Ramona throw her first marriage in her face, and EVERYBODY threw her second one in her face seasons 8 and 9. As far as I am concerned, Luann learned her lesson after the pirate episode and when she eventually lost Jacques. She was demoted to FOH in season 6, but instead of being a pot-stirrer, she focused on bonding with the other women (I think the presence of Heather as a positive person who confronted the toxicity, also helped set the tone for Luann). In particular Luann was a supportive friend to Sonja who was in danger of losing her home and in complete denial over it. That is when I knew that deep down, when the chips are down and the Count's money is no longer there,  Luann stays positive, keeps it moving, and remains a good friend. As a viewer and a fan, she won me over from that season on. 

She's made some very public missteps since then but evil? No. Human, imo. Relatably human and flawed. But also not somebody who wallows in her own misfortune, plays the victim, or triumphs in the misfortune of others. That is an asset in my book. Tbh the attraction of a show like RHONY is not good-or-evil personalities, but shades of grey. There is far more to all these women than just being good or bad. And I enjoy it that way! It keeps me on my toes as a viewer.

Best line goes to 'If I buy you something, will you get sexual?' LOL!!! I  might just use that.

 

I think we know I'm Team LuAnn so I like to see her owning it. 

 

Well, given what Beck is doing to RHOA, it doesn't look like he's friends with the B. And neither is Carol this season.

 

I am happy to see Tinsley again. 

 

Dorinda continues to keep it real. However, I do not like that Sonja is going to be coming for her again this year...and it appears to be unnecessary. 

 

ANd...that diva head toss when Carol called you a loser, LuAnn...LOVE.

Team Luann  too -- and shame on whoever spread the rumor that Luann would not be a full housewife this season! 

Carole is just rubbing me all kinds of wrong in this trailer, even though her haircut and new facelift look good. She is surpassing her mean-girl mentor Bethenny. Even though IA with Carole saying that B gets aggressive with her lol. Carole's failure to donate or publicly support Bethenny's hurricane relief mission, coupled with her calling Luann a LOSER  This lazy-ass unable to meet her book deadlines. I also didn't like the way Tinsley was almost gleeful about Luann assaulting a police officer. How quickly we forget our own mugshot and misdemeanours, Tinsley. 

Ramona was barely in the trailer, hmmm. I hope we still get those special Ramona Moments. (I also hope we get Morocco Part Deux!)
