Clip from next week's BH. Shoot me now.

Calling it now -- this season's SL will be 'Are Eddie & David Beador lovers?'

It's Radar Online so take with a pinch of salt: https://radaronline.com/exclusives/2018/03/rhoc-shannon-beador-tamra-judge-feuding-over-david-beador-eddie-judge-friendship/ I am assuming that this means filming is already underway on OC's eleventy millionth season.

Finally watched BH, it was a better episode than I anticipated. Nothing much happened and what did happen was petty as f*ck (which goes for the entire season). However, it was nice to see some intercontinental jet-setting. And the interaction between the women was light-hearted. Even the Nanny Kay (for a moment I thought LVP said "Danny Kaye") stuff. I liked seeing everybody getting along and gently ribbing each other. Moments like these, I feel like Erika and LVP could be friends, so could Dorit and Teddi. Alas, Rinna still sounds bitter and salty AF towards LVP.

Not just Kim -- although that was awful how viciously she humiliated Kim in front of Adrienne and Ken's friend in the limo. BH S1 screened here recently, and Kyle set Camille up all season to look like the bitch. She was deathly afraid Camille would steal the spotlight. The crux of their fight was whether Kyle said to Camille off-camera "Why would you show up to an event without Kelsey Grammer?" The implication being nobody knows Camille without her famous husband. Kyle denied saying it, but I can 100% picture her spouting those words with her overly-loud seal-laugh (while throwing her own marriage in Camille's face). Because there is nobody Kyle finds more witty and hilarious than herself. Oh and ITA about Rinna. The jabs at LVP on Instagram weren't cute either. Don't bitch from a closet in the safety of your own home. Participate in the show or get off the pot. And at least one of the Hadid girls has a personality. Not so with the Hamlin offspring. I have been thinking about Potomac all week. I cannot wait for it to start. This looks good! It's always goosebumps time when Robyn starts to lose it. She and Ashley have butted heads for a while. Ashley is always asking her about the arrangement with Juan and Robyn never really gives her an answer that satisfies. And one 90 minute reunion is more than enough for BH this season.

I can only speak to what I have read on Tamara Tattles -- TT is Atlanta-based with a fair knowledge of legal court documents, and she's seen some of the ones pertaining to Sheree. She even got sued by Sheree at one time (and Sheree lost!). She has good local sources. Apparently there is no income coming in, apart from a Bravo check (I don't believe the 'book' that she 'wrote' is bringing in much cash). The Bravo checks are not enough to cover the costs of upkeep of such a place, LET ALONE the back-pay she owes contractors, gardeners, furnishing companies, etc. FYI Sheree apparently does not live at Chateau Sheree as it is uninhabitable -- no air con, no heating, no damp prevention measures, no certificate of occupancy. Sheree shows up to film at Chateau Sheree when necessary and the rooms are then staged with furniture. She had to get the contractors in last season when she returned to RHOA full-time and promised Bravo she would do a big party at the 'finished' Chateau Sheree. The contractors who did her front lawn and driveway and furnished the kitchen and bathrooms, etc, are currently all suing Sheree for the money she said she would pay them for that work. Sheree is ducking and diving and saying they didn't do a good job and why should she have to pay for bad work, blah blah. In other words, she has no money to pay them with. There has never been money to pay the suppliers, ever since Season 1 when she was in hock to her seamstresses, party planners, and Dwight. If Sheree is in cahoots with a fraudster like Tyrone who owes millions regarding securities and wire fraud, well, maybe that is no accident. Either she believes that after his release from the pokey, Prison Bae will cover her deluded ass with gold and diamonds.... or she wants in on some scamming herself?

Sheree shading Marc because he works in another city is hilarious considering (a) he does actually work -- as a well-regarded NYC chef, no less -- and (b) he is not incarcerated. In other words, he can fly to Atlanta whenever he wants! Kenya hit the jackpot with him, as far as I can see. Sheree, meanwhile, is conducting a relationship with a prison inmate who is not due for release until 2022. Way to go, Sheree.

I was also going to say that Vogue's star has dimmed in recent years -- it no longer is THE last word on fashion (if it ever was). After it kept putting Blake Lively, Kate Hudson and Sienna Miller (generic blondes with little talent or success) on its cover in constant rotation in the 2000s, Vogue's rep as the industry bible disappeared. Like the newspaper business, Condé Nast's magazine business has seen sales plummet and that's more about the publication and fashion industries rapidly transitioning than it is Vogue's crappy covers. I like its online content, though, and credit Anna Wintour with pushing Condé Nast online and trying to keep it relevant. It is clear with Vogue's videos (featuring Erika Jaynardi, Yolanda Hadid, Gigi/Bella/Kendall, Taylor Swift, and, mysteriously, Sarah Jessica Parker) that Vogue's focus is getting those gossip-reader clicks. Haha this is amazing!

Vogue does a lot of Devil-Wears-Prada-like content which I tend to enjoy. Anyway, with this vid, I'm assuming Gigi and Bella were busy?? That one 'Vogue intern' joke wore very thin -- and Erika is no longer intern age. The Vogue seal of approval will likely stoke that ego of her's some more, but I thought it interesting that a certain Ms. Anna Wintour did not appear in this; in some of the other content, she appears with some of the bigger stars, lol. I notice the other content Vogue is promoting is 'Yolanda Hadid's food diaries.' How long does it take to count out 10 almonds and slice a lemon?

What woman has such poor self-esteem that she would marry this crook -- who looks 68 if he"s a day! And nice try talking about his drama-free life, implying the drama was all Vicki. When, in fact, the drama was his cancer scam. Somewhere, Vicki is probably tearing apart the furniture in her house and setting fire to Brooks' daily written affirmations that she likely still keeps locked in her safe. She is so much better off without him, though -- he cost her her marriage and almost cost her her kids, her business and her job on RHOC. This new wife is in for a world of manipulation and heartbreak and less money. Whatever coins she and her family have, you know Crooks already has his eye on them.

Kenya's return was the burst of oxygen this show needed. And Marc Daly must be one of the most good looking husbands in the RH franchises. IA that Phaedra should have returned to take the heat from the other HWs. As usual Teflon Phaedra avoids the fallout.

I'm an abroad fan but I never heard about this until now! If they stick some English subs on the episodes and post them on YouTube, I'd probably watch it.

She is not universally adored, and you are not the only person to dislike Kenya. Even this season, with the marriage to Marc Daly, there were plenty of viewers who believed it was fake for the show. Many still do. Kenya shot herself in the foot her first season with that fake Walter SL, not to mention tangling with Apollo (no female viewer is going to look kindly on that). As a result, it's like the boy who cried wolf with Kenya. Speaking for myself, I grew to like her. She's not my favourite HW, but I liked what I saw of her vulnerability. I believe what she went through with her mom is real and not inflated for the cameras. She was somewhat absent and not really 'there' this season, and given that the whole season has been a dud (for me), I'm hoping her more active participation next year will bring something better. IMO, ATL needs a big clear-out. I don't think Sheree or Porsha should return, at least with peaches. I don't think Kim, Marlo, Shamea or Eva should get peaches at all. I think something needs to shake-up the Nene-Cynthia-Kandi-Kenya core. I wish I knew who or what that was. I used to think Marlo would add some spice, but I'm underwhelmed by her this year.

True. The drive from the UES to Franklin Lakes takes about 53 mins according to my Google Maps.

Yep. I'm already done with Gizelle's word on the street. Not to quote Carole, because I really hate her scripted VTs, but "There is no word, there is no shtreet."

Hush! Dorinda needs to stay on NYC!!! John Mahdessian can replace Soggy tho.

"LOIIIIISSSSSS" -- pant pant-- "LOIIIIISSSSS IS GONNA LOVE THE PUPPIESSSSSSSS!!!" Thanks. The taglines are ever so slightly different from some of the ones published last week, so I'm guessing Bravo last-minute tweaked a couple. Namely Gizelle's and Karen's. Danielle holy f**k. I hope @DaytimeFan comments on this. That is an AGGRESSIVE brow lift/shaved jawline. Her nose looks different too. I am personally offended by her tattooed eyebrows! I hate to say it because I can't stand Melissa, but her work was done right. Glad Kenya will be returning. But she left it VERY late with the hubby not wanting to sign a release form until now. She must have feared for her job. I'm really hoping Michael Beck is let go after this season -- I don't like the idea of an EP who is trying to get HWs fired and is loyal to only one ho who doesn't even hold a peach.

I do think BH got better this season than the last two seasons, when Munchhausen and Pantygate made me want to gouge my eyes out. Camille has brought some lightness and Dorit definitely brought the petty! However, underpinning this lightness is meanness and envy. Ever since Season Munchhausen, that is kind of all I see with these ladies' interaction with each other. It's all percolating just under the surface -- until it isn't, and Kim Erika somebody explodes, and then Kyle starts making this annoying face: Truthfully, I think Faye would be a better choice than Brandi, even if she is Kyle's wingman. She has her own business (interior design), is very close with Kris Jenner, she lives in the greater LA area (she's from Brentwood originally) and moves in the kind of circles Bravo would enjoy filming. She's had an interesting life for sure. I think she should become a full HW actually.

I thought it was an enjoyably light-hearted episode after the nastiness of the past 3 weeks. Camille's VTs while Dorit couldn't stop yapping about Dorit were . Next week looks like a borefest of filler, though. Erika on WWHL? Why am I not surprised? Dorit was on last week. I am so ready for the first week of April and both Potomac and NY premiering!!!! I still can't believe there are 12 more episodes of BH coming up! Surely there should be 3-4 more plus a two-part reunion?

Brandi is obsessed with the show and with certain HWs on the show (LVP, Kyle, Rinna) in an unhealthy and negative way. She doesn't seem to have evolved from her time on BH -- even though she had a chance at happiness with a stable and seemingly good guy. A return to BH would be a regression, for her and the show. BH: Erika, feminist icon, 'empowering young girls' and 'talking to them about being boss bitches' -- did anybody else snort at the empty flatulence she was spouting? Also, Mikey, I don't believe Kimora Lee Simmons has been young and edgy since the 1990s. Lois was lovely, and so are Rinna's puppies Lola and Rocky. I liked the scene where Rinna bought LVP a gift to cheer her up after her puppy's death and LVP in her VT said "We don't get along.... but we've been friends for a long time." Kyle's psychic is a charlatan and has been ever since Season 1! Still, it is funny seeing her throw anything out there and pray somebody would bite. "Anybody know a Frances? Francis?" I felt a little sad for Kyle asking the psychic for Dead Big Kathy's approval.

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).

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). 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 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.

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
