Check out those pupils...you'd think under studio lights they'd be small, however...

Garcelle nuked Rinna with the 'why is she bringing race into this show?' comment. I have never seen Rinna make peace with someone so fast. She knew Garcelle had her pinned and she needed to make that go away immediately and she knew she couldn't scream it away, so she ran her bony ass across that stage and hugged Garcelle like she was clinging to a life raft.

Garcelle's 'pffft' at the end of Rinna's ridiculous statement says it all. Garcelle knows what Rinna is doing and she is not intimidated in the slightest. Rinna's nastiness is so performative. It's a very bad look. This is how Gizelle and Karen can co-exist in the future and gives both of them a lease on life for the franchise. That was a funny moment with harmless shade. The ones who should be worried at Mia, Candy-Ass, and Robyn.

That's been claimed for many years, many say Kyle is an unofficial 'producer', but there's no evidence of that as far as I've seen. Now, that isn't to say that Kyle doesn't have sway with the folks at Evolution, and maybe she does, but I've never seen evidence of anything contractual. Girls Trip is produced by a totally different production company, Purveyors of Pop, so if she has sway, it's long gone with these people and it's evident, based on this edit, that they cameramen and producers realize how painfully annoying Kyle is.

I loooove that the editors appear to hate Kyle!

RHOP I tend to agree that Candiace needs to GO but that it should occur after next season when she is nearly guaranteed to implode. Ashley is a top tier housewife. There, I said it. She has the ability to get in the mix, fight right down low, but somehow maintain a sense of dignity and humour that Candy-Ass can't touch. And Ashley is able to grow and move on (her friendship with La Dame is my favourite relationship on the show). I laughed so hard as Karen advised the table of gentleman that, as she was celebrating 25 years married "to Ray" (as if they knew who he was?!) they needed to buy their wives YSL. And the tea bagging and salad tossing comments? Her reaction's to Mia's husband? Hilarious. Robyn should get the axe. She is literally bringing nothing to this show. The stank attitude she and Gizelle had when they discovered their garbage bedroom didn't have a bathroom? That was justice in action. Gizelle openly admitted she didn't want to allow Wendy to use the bathroom in her shack, so what did they expect? Wendy handled them well. As @NothinButAttitudesaid, the group was backtracking on 'last year' saying it's in vain. Even Gizelle, whose naked hatred for Monique fuelled every decision she made last season, had to admit that Candiace didn't learn a thing. RHOSLC This was an enjoyable episode. SLC is a bit different, production wise, in that it allows filming to occur as some of the wives continue to be islands unto themselves. In my view, this actually feels more real than the shows who force everyone together as if they're all friends. Mary, for instance, remains an island unto herself, even if she's escaped from her walk in closet. Whitney's children's reactions to Mary's story was so cringe. Mary did not have an ounce of empathy. It was bizarre. Jennie still needs to integrate into the group a bit but I like her a lot. Her husband is preposterous and cruel for even discussing another child when Jennie has endured so much, their existing children are reaching independence, and he's in his 50s. I sure hope it's contrived for TV. I like the budding friendship we are seeing with Meredith and Heather. The thing with Heather is she's relaxed and I think that puts the usually cautious Meredith at ease. The Jen/Brooks sit down was not juicy. But that's because Jen knew she'd f*cked herself up something fierce in the public eye and that sympathy was with Brooks. So she did a very Housewife tearful apology and hopes that everything with Meredith is repaired. However, I did not witness repair in the slightest. Meredith was observing everything and once Jen had apologized, Meredith was fine to sit with her. But trust her again? Never. Lisa and Whitney's sit down rung very hollow. It was clear to me that Lisa was trying to cover this conflict from last week by bringing Whitney over to her side. But Whitney knows this is nonsense and given the previews for next week, any hopes of peace are to be very short lived.

It never existed. Candy-Ass never had PTSD. What she had was the cold taste of humiliation when Monique dragged her. She was so furious at Monique for humiliating her like that - that's Candy-Ass' default: fury. She needs to take her low budget ass off this show and book into inpatient treatment with a psychiatrist.

Holly Valance is married to Nick Candy. She basically stopped her career after marrying in 2012. She would know Dorit from PK’s high flying days. Not so sure how well she’d fit in - the one who deserves/needs an FOH is Garcelle.

Now this looks good. I do still have concerns about Erika skating through this with a few 'my lawyers have advised I can't speak out this'...nobody should be surprised about Andy. Throughout this season he has been testing audience reaction on WWHL and the results have probably shocked him in how consistently the audience is against Erika. When he started the season he'd constantly poke at WWHL guests about Erika's innocence, seemingly defending her. Then, somewhere along the way, he realized the audience is not with her and he's covering his own ass by making sure nobody accuses him of enabling her nonsensical narrative, as he had done earlier this season. The reunion is truly Erika's last hope of saving herself and coming across with some compassion for the victims. Rinna looks insane as she screams blood murder. I hope Garcelle stays on her very strongly and does not give in. She should not show her any mercy.

RIP Coco! I hope Coco is now with Aston and Milou over the rainbow bridge. It's been a bad couple of years for HW dogs.

How much fun must SSH and Doug Hayes be having at this time in their lives and careers?

I cannot wait. I've missed Melbourne so much!

100% Someone in production warned Gizelle and Robyn that their absence was not noticed in any manner, whatsoever. I was actually surprised how irrelevant they suddenly were, and I'm no fan of either of them. Well done, Wendy. Candiace really escalates and while many were saying Monique had an anger management problem last season, I'd say Candiace has one as well. She just goes zero to 60 without hesitation or factual basis and can't be talked down. I think we'll see even more of that next week. She is a ludicrous brat. I'm not liking Mia very much with her stank attitude and her husband...wow, what a pig. It's one thing to have a vulgar personal life, but know your audience. I really like Askale. I think she needs to jump in full time next season. Karen imploring Candiace to realize she doesn't know Mia's mother's story, as Candiace screamed wildly, was another example of how Karen is truly an adult who often stands for what's right, not what's convenient. SLC "I'm not going to the weak side of the ice because I lied about my weight." - Heather Gay. Someone print that line on my tombstone. What a legend. When she and Whitney were sitting back watching Jen implode as Meredith handed her ass to her, the commentary was perfect. I also would have loved to gamble with her at that party. Meredith, of course, doesn't believe Jen at all. But I think she wants to see Jen atone to Brooks. I have a feeling Meredith's PI had already given her information, so she knew who Jen was by this point in filming. Jennie's children are adorable. I love watching her at home scenes. Those kids are so well mannered and total stars. Whitney looking directly to camera when Lisa blanked her was hilarious and right out of a self aware sitcom. Mary is going to have to get in the mix some more, otherwise it's time to demote her to Friend of the show. She operates in her own bubble. Lisa fake crying...girl...try to get at least one tear out when you're pulling that crap. She was caught red handed and just wanted to flee. Whitney described Lisa's behaviour perfectly. She deflected and ran.

@carolineg so long as a movie or television show is dubbed a work of fiction, there's no need to obtain consent from subjects. Sometimes they want consent (and but someone's 'life rights') because they want cooperation and information, but there's no need.

On desktop Instagram I go to the 3 dots in the corner, click Embed, copy the embed code, then in this message window, I click Source, paste the embed code, click Source and then post.

He's the attorney for one of the bankruptcy trustees whose relentlessly pursuing Erika...recall earlier this season EJ made the comment about wearing a wire?

S. Epatha Merkerson must be in this. I need to see Van Buren in this…

I'm all for Dorit staying on the show if she's had a falling out with Kyle. It really doesn't matter if they're at each other's throats or Kyle tries to freeze out Dorit or crucify her, it's the type of conflict we're going to need if we don't get to see Erika truly implode onscreen. Steve and Vicki broke up? You mean once it was clear Steve would not be governor of California their relationship no longer needed to continue? You'd almost think he stayed with her for the publicity of his campaign? No...couldn't be...

ATL Very gracious of Cynthia. I think the writing has been on the wall for a season or two that her time on the show was running out. That said, she's that sane one in the cast that ATL will need to ensure they replace carefully. SLC Very much enjoyed this episode. Mary taking a moment to pass gas in total silence with Meredith and Brookes was one of the more insane moments I have witnessed on television. Meredith engaging and exploding at ice fishing was totally justified. Is Jen that psychotic that she doesn't think she's responsible for what her social media team does? What a moron. POTOMAC I am astounded that anyone is against Wendy. Robyn and Gizelle openly antagonized her: what did they expect to be the reaction? Karen was hilarious and I am so glad she's vaccinated. BH LVP has exposed Kyle as the one who was spreading rumors about Tom and Erika at Andy's Baby Shower: https://www.dailymail.co.uk/tvshowbiz/article-10034723/Lisa-Vanderpump-reluctantly-admits-Kyle-Richards-spread-story-friend-Erika-Jayne.html

I’d rather have an action packed 3 part reunion than a 4 part reunion that drags. I fully expect that at least one episode will drag. If Erotica Lame is returning to the show it seems to me that she didn’t get BBQ’d at the reunion.

They are trying to haze her. That's what this is like: some sick sorority style hazing where she has to collapse and be 'vulnerable' and then she is embraced by the ghoulish mob telling her it'll all be OK...it's really bizarre.

Absolutely. Rinna, Dorit, and to a lesser extent Kyle, were sitting there gaslighting Garcelle into having an emotional breakdown. And once they emotionally broke her, they said their usual crap about being open and 'vulnerable' and that they could now be 'closer' to her. It reminds me of a cult. They need to destroy each other till they are emotional wrecks so that they can be wrecks together. The only person (aside from Sutton) who I think appreciated what Garcelle had to say was Kathy. Speaking of Kathy...

Whatever soul Rinna had, she sold long ago. Yikes.

I think cutting Luann would be a grave mistake. RHONY has succeeded based on its organic relationships between the cast. Luann, Sonja, and yes, even Ramona, have always had organic relationships with their cast mates. Leah and Eboni are the ones without any organic ties to this cast. That is where the weak spot in the armour resides. But I wouldn't cut Eboni. I think she has an interesting life in non-pandemic times. Leah is the one who doesn't bring anything to the table. She had to film with her family because there was nobody else! No business scenes. No romance scenes. No levity. She's an albatross and the show would be well rid of her.
