It is a credit to LuAnn that I can recall exactly how/when/where/how she said that line. It was devastating. Even though she can be horrendously nasty, I love LuAnn, I think she's an extreme person, if she's for you, she's really for you. The way she let Sonja lean on her when she took down those paintings illustrated that. Brandi is a lunatic. Do we know all of our best friend's friends? I sure as hell don't. She is going to really try and go for Lisa at the reunion. It isn't going to end well for Brandi. That Housewives cheque doesn't last forever.

The NY trailer looks EPIC. And I bet I'm going to love Luann as a Friend of the Housewives...it seems like she's going to be the Faye of this show.

RHOBH... Joyce has come alive in the last three episodes...Brandi's irrational hatred of her is the best thing that could have happened to her for storyline purposes, otherwise she would have been one of the dullest housewives ever. But now, she is a hair tossing, pageant queen, Puerto Rican diva who takes no nonsense from no one. She has become the most relevant housewife on the show in the span of three episodes. Kyle, for whatever reason, is looking particularly aged in her talking head interviews, she might just be pulling odd facial expressions that she thinks are 'cute'...whatever. It was such a pleasure to see Jamie Lee Curtis, who I think is just dynamite, but I had to laugh as Kyle and Mauricio bought their way into LA society, at least for a couple of weeks, with that $100,000 donation. That said, at least it was to a good cause and not a new car. Lisa looked STUNNING at the fashion show and she was one of the audience members. She can wear a pair of cigarette pants like nobody's business. She just radiates glamour. And I agree with Lisa about Joyce's husband, Ken would have done exactly the same thing, to his credit. Lisa's already scotched Kim's stupid claims for next week's episode about skipping Kimberly's graduation (she invited Lisa? someone she openly dislikes? to her daughter's graduation party?) and being in town by posting a link to the alopecia event in Missouri that she was at the weekend of the party. Kim remains as irrelevant as ever. I cannot fathom how the editors at Bravo thought we wanted to see this much filler about Kim's dumb dog. Carlton is also irrelevant, but at least she does something different (though always within the same sphere of witchcraft, tattoos and swearing) in each episode. Unless something drastically changes, I think Carlton is safely a one season wonder. And she should take Kim with her. I would so have preferred Taylor stay on the show, even if she is basically living in Colorado these days, she could have hosted one heck of a girl's weekend. Yolanda gave it the old college try with Brandi, but it's clearly falling on deaf ears. Yolanda is a good friend in that she is quick to defend, but also realistic in how she handles Brandi after she's cooled down. I would say that, between Yolanda and Lisa, it is actually Yolanda who is maternal to Brandi. Lisa is more of an etiquette teacher to Brandi, one Brandi has rebelled against. Brandi. She is a dumb, messy, drunk, whose also probably struggling with her mental health, if not an addiction or two. I don't know what it is, but something is definitely off with Brandi. Her racist statements to Joyce are absolutely ridiculous, her zero to sixty behaviour implodes her credibility and her general ratchet behaviour is either a symptom of something else very wrong in her life (and the Leann and Eddie excuse is wearing very thin, it's been YEARS) or the reason her life is the way it is, who knows who Brandi really is.

Could not have said it better myself. Especially since you omitted any mention of Kim who is becoming more irrelevant as each episode goes by. Carlton doesn't fit and she doesn't work on the show. A once and done cast member if there ever was one. Re: Yolanda's acne. Take it from me, gentle cleanser, salicylic acid gel or lotion and benzoyl peroxide are the gold standard. In a pinch the visine trick could work to reduce some redness since it constricts blood vessels. But acne is better prevented and that is through daily routine. I thought Lisa looked gorgeous and her poor friends Martin and Mohammed having to tolerate Brandi's offensive antics.

Why wouldn't Lisa stand on her own? She is The Queen, someone who has lived life, been there, done that, bought the t-shirt and is unimpressed with other people's nonsense. If it appears she is above the rest of the women, it's simply because she is superior to them. And yes, she is absolutely over them, they're petty women who bring nothing to her life. Lisa is in her mid 50s and has been at the game called 'life' long enough to know that it isn't worth it.

Another yawn inducing episode of RHOBH... Carlton bores me with her pseudo BDSM obsession, I'd be so creeped out if I were her nanny. Her body looks so old and sinewy and that face of hers has seen better days. Joyce...can't be bothered with her because she is guarding her picture perfect image like a hawk onscreen...if she's able to let loose at the reunion, so be it and maybe, just maybe, she'll make herself relevant. Kyle...yawn. She is such a whiney loser, highlighting the 'hearts' issue of the placecards, she is itching for a fight. Kim. Her entire storyline is centred around a stupid dog. Need I say more? The most irrelevant housewife in RH franchise history. Lisa, per usual, is glorious and delightful to watch. Yolanda, and her amazing fridge, also was a delight to watch. Brandi...messy, idiotic, poorly aged, alcohol abusing, bimbo.

I have missed Taylor/Shana/Armstrong/Ford the moment I saw Joyce who is so dull and pointless I can't even begin to describe my disappointment in her. Taylor was a mess, but last season she proved herself to be a HILARIOUS mess, especially when drunk and with nothing left to lose. She was liberated once Russell died, she was broke and Adrienne had thrown her to the wolves. Her slurring, middle finger in the air antics were excellent. And just looks at Wendy's face...she can't believe Brandi's said all that mess. Brandi is so over.

RHOBH: Yawn. Basically, this episode was a snooze after the first ten minutes wrapped up last week's drama. The only enjoyable part of the episode was Lisa dismissing Kim to exit stage left as she stumbled around her bathroom with her skirt half off. Lisa looked STUNNING lying on the bed talking to Kyle, and even more delicious as she waltzed away once Kim started making an ass of herself. For someone who is sober, Kim has a really messy personality, poor recognition of social cues and bad manners. I don't need to hear Carlton describe her Wiccan faith as "sacred" one more time. I think I counted 4 'sacred's this episode. Also, much as I like Carlton I can't help but notice how rough her face looks. So terribly thin and wrinkled. Joyce. Boring. Kyle. Whatever. Her tears just reinforce that something has happened with Mauricio in the past...there's no logical alternative explanation for her theatrics about tabloid reports. That she sobbed her way into a reconciliation with Yolanda (she crumbled fast) just makes me roll my eyes. Yolanda gives Brandi a bit too much a free pass on her drunken behaviour, I know I couldn't stand to be around someone who gets as sloppy and insulting as Brandi does when she's had too much to drink. Faye Resnick was a total sh*tbag cow, but at least she was haughty about it and her presence would have likely raised the stakes in terms of conflict. She would have started insulting Brandi way before she went in on Kyle. She's evil, but I miss Faye. You know things are getting dire on the show when an episode's cliffhanger is Brandi driving back to Los Angeles to try and find her dog...gripping? I didn't think so.

This is the end of the career road for Gretchen and Slade. What a relief. Soon, they'll be obscure nobodies, just as they always should have been.

I think it will go beyond Lisa vs Brandi. I think it will be every Housewife against each other, even Lisa vs Yolanda. And I will choose Lisa every time.

I think that's absolutely what's happening. Lisa has come around to the conclusion that Brandi, fun though she may be, is a loose cannon and irresponsibly person who just lets the chips fall where they may, irrespective of consequences. I think there will come a point this season where we, the viewers, will ultimately have to pick a side, and I know I'm siding with Lisa, regardless of what happens. I just do not believe she is the type of woman who does anything without reason.

Brandi sucks and I'm totally over her, but I laughed out loud when she said to Kyle: "It's hard because you seem so sweet and then you become this crazy a**hole"...the look of shock on Kyle's face was worth the whole episode, which was a waste of 45 minutes. Lisa didn't factor much into this episode, but she looked gorgeous. That skin of hers is second to none. Kim is a non-entity as always, I can't believe Andy Cohen is OK with signing a cheque for this woman who contributes nothing (except mistaking fence sitting for being everyone's friend) to the show. Yolanda made mincemeat of Kyle, she is cool as a cucumber and so clear in her statements that I just can't help but be totally convinced that she is telling the truth. And then she shut up that idiotic, basic fool Joyce down like a pro. Joyce is such a non-entity to this show. Incredibly boring and thirsty to be relevant on the show. Dull. Boring. Yawn. Kyle: "Kim and I know that we did not just invent that story out of thin air"...that's right, the part she left out was 'instead, we planned ahead and put our child star brains together with something that we thought would get under Lisa's skin and undermine her relationship with Yolanda'...when Kyle said "Likewise!" repeatedly I just about reached the end of the road with any scene Kyle's in. In fact, I'm finding RHOBH tiresome to watch. It's getting so stupid, immature and ugly, akin to RHONJ and RHOA, both of which I've dropped. This season my be my last for this franchise and perhaps the franchise as a whole.

I haven't watched RHOA for a couple of seasons now, but I've always thought that about Kandi's mother. She is sinister and a control freak who likes being taken care of.

RHOBH Kim looks so much better with her hair in a ponytail...she needs to realize this. Her daughter's graduation was cute...but that's all. Kathy Hilton was totally right about the dress she was going to wear. Kathy Hilton is right about everything when it comes to Kim, especially seeing as Kathy Hilton doesn't seem to like Kyle as much as she does Kim, which I'm sure is as refreshing as a cool ocean breeze for her. "They're either at each other's throats or down each other's throats!" - Lisa. Oh Lisa, The Queen. Never, ever, change. Lisa mentioning moving back to France had me screaming YES from the soul, she is too good for California. She should be in Europe. Yolanda's throwing shade at Lisa on her Bravo blog, saying that Lisa is acting "entitled" to want Pandora and Jason in Los Angeles and that there's a solution for Lisa, being "one of Bravo's best stars," moving to The Real Housewives of NYC franchise. Sigh. Kyle and Joyce are two annoying peas in a pod. Fast forwarded their scenes. As I did for Brandi. And Carlton.

RHOBH I find Joyce hard to stomach because she's up Kyle's tired ass already. It's like that foghorn laugh Kyle has is like some sort of siren song wooing blandly irritating housewives into her clutches. Mauricio is so defensive and Kyle is such a mess that it sets off my bullsh*t meter with those two. Kim was beyond patronizing at that gymnastics event, one of the least organic events in Housewives history (this show could really take a lesson from RHOV and do a tennis party every once in a while!), where she instructed people how to behave...please. Yolanda handled herself admirably with Kim and her daughters seem like nice girls who know how to shop their mom's closet! Brandi was a non-entity this episode, though the cracks in Lisa/Brandi have begun to show. Lisa's puppy? Adorable. Lisa's reaction to Joyce's stupid hair flip fiasco? Perfect. Lisa seems so over the show and hanging with these broads. Carlton's reaction to Joyce talking to Lisa was the highlight of the episode, she is clearly an adult.

I read those texts. If that's game...then clearly I have been out of the league for a long time. I just don't get it, doesn't seem like anything, just a couple of illiterate people typing with one hand while drinking coffee with the other.

Congrats to Kim. And now it's time to stop having babies, they're going to run out of bedrooms!

+1. Lisa is The Supreme. This episode of RHOBH only got good in the last 10 minutes when Brandi started being her messy self at the luncheon table dropping that bomb on Kyle...the thing is...would Kyle (or anyone) react the way she has been to the rumours of Mauricio cheating on her if she knew, categorically, that they weren't true? Of course not, she'd be like Lisa and laugh off the nonsense, secure in her own knowledge. But that's not what happens: Kyle cries like a 12 year old girl and lashes out with a bunch of nonsense about never spreading "rumours and lies and tabloid stories" about Lisa, Yolanda and Brandi. And let's be real, that's a lie. She's had Faye Resnik do it, we've seen it firsthand. It is obvious that Kyle and Lisa are no longer friends and it is clearer still that Kyle actively hates Lisa. Announcing "Let's talk about Lisa on Dancing with the Stars!" wreaked of highschool bully behaviour. You don't see that behaviour with Lisa. Lisa confronts everything head on and when she does, Kyle, like a spooked horse, runs away with her tail between her legs. Otherwise, like last week I found this episode dull. I don't care about Yolanda and her private duty holistic nurse, I don't care about Joyce, her anatomy and her husband's junk (adorable sons though), I don't care about Brandi dumping her realtor, I don't care about Lisa getting voted off Dancing with the Stars, and I really don't care about what new lows Kyle and Kim can sink to insulting Lisa. It's all so ugly. I still like Carlton and the fact that she doesn't like Kyle, though her acceptance of Brandi's foul language was hypocritical, though understandable, given that Brandi's messiness is in your face, while Kyle tries to be stealth with nasty enquiries about Carlton's religious beliefs.

RHOBH This was such a dull episode, really underwhelming, nothing really happened...the highlight was seeing Shana/Taylor who I absolutely miss, I'm sure it's hard to film her since she'd have been in Colorado for most of it...but they replaced her with the likes of Joyce? Carlton has some personality and her swearing and children and house at least spice things up, Joyce adds nothing! Brandi and her ugly rented house, Yolanda and her port removal (anyone else notice she has Farrah Fawcett's internist?), Kim and her dumb dog, Lisa and Ken walking along a street in WeHo towards a barren pit that will, one day, become their bar...so dull. I don't know why Kyle bothers pretending she's Lisa's friend, moaning constantly about how much Lisa's hurt her and how she wants to move on when, let's face it...she clearly hates her. The way she and Kim mocked her in their screening room and how next week she brings it up in the limo? What a dumb bitch.

Lisa looks incredible, and that's 'day to day' Lisa. I love the look she gave Kyle, I think it's something everyone should learn how to do effectively.

Kyle has nothing to say that's valid in my eyes. Nothing. She is a bitch and a liar and someone who isn't comfortable with living in reality and needs to keep up a front at all times. Had she been an adult, last year she would have let her friendship with Lisa go, instead of desperately trying to stay relevant, even as Lisa said the relationship had changed and it was over. But no, Kyle continues to chuck other people under the bus (like Yolanda) in order to be "friends" with Lisa, even as she talks trash behind Lisa's back. Lisa has been upfront from day one, she spelled it out to Kyle that the relationship had changed. And sure, her humour is deprecating and bitchy, she's British, that's how they roll, she isn't unique that way at all. And she's not pretended to be some sweet little thing. She is who she is. If Kyle doesn't like it as much as she claims, she needs to get a set of nails and crucify herself. The victim routine makes me sick.

And if she doesn't get her way she should quit. Of the franchises, RHOBH is the only one that I've watched where I've only really loved one housewife and that's Queen Lisa. To me, she makes the show. Her lifestyle book was a success, Vanderpump Rules (while not everyone's cup of tea) is a success, her restaurants are successful and she and Ken have legitimate wealth. The other women clearly hate her because she has everything they don't...so if she goes, good for her, I'll be going with her.

RHOBH Kyle: huge bitch, ugly personality, petty cow who never left highschool. "Never had an issue with Yolanda"...what? Against liars? What a nutjob. She guns for Yolanda because Yolanda doesn't give a damn about her. She doesn't like the approach of confront an issue head on? Of course not, because that's what adults do. And Mauricio...after seeing him on Million Dollar Listing I am 100% convinced where there's smoke there's fire. Notice how he checked Joyce out up and down and side to side? Kyle, Lisa DOES know you, and she knows you're a nasty, lying bitch. Brandi: she will blow through her money big time, leasing out an expensive house needlessly, going to Dr Lancer for injections she doesn't need. What a shame. Kim: looking rough, skin is terrible, hair is terrible, her dog is horrifically behaved and she is clearly going to snap with her children fleeing the nest. She is truly filler for this show. Worthless filler. I would have rather watched Taylor. I won't be surprised if that dog of hers mauls her to death before the season is over. That said, her dress at Kyle's party was excellent, Kathy Hilton to the rescue! Yolanda: still enjoying The Duchess and her free wheeling ways. "Joyce has better hair than Kyle!" I adore how she despises Kyle. Joyce: I think she's going to annoy me. That "Naked Room" story was gross. So bitchy about Carlton's kids names. Carlton: I like her! And her husband too! "I just don't want to picture someone I've just met naked with something flapping. I just don't." Lisa: she's getting the bitch edit, and to that I say, Lisa baby, let your bitch flag fly! She is The Queen. And any enemy of hers has it coming.

Team Lisa always...the others aren't fit to shine her pumps.

I haven't watched the show, but Nene's weaves/wigs do not look good. She used to look amazing, what happened?
