Thank God. One of the worst Housewives ever. OC needs an overhaul anyway so if they’re smart they’ll start over with Vicki, Shannon and Tamra and tell those three to either get along or get fired.

Melbourne If anyone else is watching this season, I can't recommend it enough to anyone on the fence. It is so much fun! The last few episodes have focused on Lydia trying to undermine Jackie and Janet's friendship, the girls taking a trip to Mexico and Janet injuring herself after too many tequilas!

There's the real Kenya. She's terrible.

Kyle always loses me with her hypocrisy - she says that it isn’t right to say someone is drinking too much, yet she’s the one who screamed “you’re a liar and sick and an alcoholic” at her sister in season 1?

For all we know she is still in rehab. Luann is due in court on January 25 in Palm Beach - I'm sure her lawyer told her to make zero public appearances. She will present as a far more contrite defendant if she can say to the judge that she didn't attend a close friend's funeral because she was seeking treatment. What is evident about NYC, unlike all other franchises, is that it's a sisterhood. When the chips are down, all these women are there for each other. Bethenny posted a quote in tribute that Bobby would say when toasting his friends: "Here's to those who wish us well, all the rest can go to hell!"

In Judaism a funeral is meant to take place as quickly as possible, within 24 hours of death if it's possible. Funerals are not permitted on the Sabbath (Saturday), so Bobby's funeral took place as quickly as possible given circumstances.

What was that episode of ATL? What was that "psychic"? I thought it was hilarious that Kim broke her. I'm ambivalent about psychics but I can say with authority that woman was a crock of sh*t.

So sad about Bobby Zarin, who seemed like a very gentle, but straight shooting, kind man. He was a very good stepfather to Jill's daughter and was obviously devoted Jill, as she was to him. I hope it was a merciful release and that Jill can take comfort in a lifetime of memories with him.

Siggy is way worse than Kelly Bensimon. Siggy deserves all the hellfire she’s brought on herself.

Absolutely - of the recent seasons, only NYC was great. NJ was good (the shortened season helped a lot). OC was awful. ATL is boring. BH is dull.

Julie looks quite frail and aged beyond her years at only 75.

Definitely the worst episode of this season, but I still had some laughs.

Agreed - Siggy was so annoying this last episode. Her interaction with her father was slightly bizarre - he’s clearly accustomed to her lunacy. Marge Sr. could have laid the smack down on Siggy, so while she was rude to ignore her I can understand why she did it.

MELBOURNE I loved this episode... Janet's fat jabs at Lydia made me laugh. I just really dislike Lydia as a person and there's no convincing me that she's redeemable. She goes on and on about not wanting to be blamed for conflict between Janet and Jackie, and then she tries to start a bunch of crap with some vague accusations, flops because she can't keep her story straight, pisses Jackie off immensely, and then gets called the C-word not once, but twice (!), by Janet. Venus remains a lying liar who lies. For a lawyer, she's awfully bad at handling facts. I am loving Gina this season. She seems so much happier and relaxed than last season. Gamble's story about her hearing is tragic and it's touching that Rick takes such good care of her and bought her those hearing aids. He is a good one. His reaction next week to Gamble's outburst looks hilarious. Sally's reading with Jackie was compelling. I think Jackie does have a gift. And Sally seems like she's up and has a go.

Such a good episode with Tom and Tom finally joining LVP in partnership (for a screaming deal) and Stassi stressing out but pulling off the event. Lala making her presence known with trashing Tom and Katie’s marriage is a big splash. I don’t know why Tom just said “I have no recollection” rather than outright denying it. Jax and James together is bizarre - how did those two become friends?!

And a Happy New Year to you, Cat. Let's hope 2018 is better for everyone, even Lisa Rinner.

Yesh you missed the hateful parts where Rinna is talking over a scene where LVP is talking to Taylor about instigating a problem with Kyle and Rinna shouts that it’s LVP doing the instigating and then there were other scenes involving Cedric who she describes as her friend.

@Cat @Taoboi @Antoyne @Cheap21 @Nothin'ButAttitude You should pop over to Lisa Rinna’s Instagram and watch her Insta story - she appears to be binge watching season 1 of RHoBH and she seriously hates LVP.

Part of Luann checking into rehab has to be down to good legal advice. The judge himself intimated that Luann has an alcohol problem, so showing that she's taken him seriously will help her cause. Ultimately, though, going to rehab won't be a cake walk however she does it.

We have not had a housewife with the guts to enter rehab mid-filming. I don't think it will be all that problematic for filming - this is likely a four week inpatient program with outpatient care afterward given that Luann has a court date on January 25, 2018. If Bravo is smart, they will applaud Luann's choice and edit accordingly. If Carole and Bethenny snark one line, they'll be finished and I'm sure they know that.

Luann is checking into rehab per her social media. Her statement is that she is totally embarrassed, has the utmost respect for police officers and is voluntarily seeking help at an alcohol treatment facility. Luann hit bottom and surveyed the damage and took action. Good for her. I hope it is a healing time.

Some genius posted this on YouTube, and this seemed the most appropriate thread:

MELBOURNE I despise Venus. She is a blatant liar and cannot be trusted. Worst of all, she's a bad liar and thinks they're all stupid enough to believe her pile of crap that she was spewing all episode. She couldn't even keep a straight face while lying. She is such a creep. It's so inconvenient that she did such a bad job hiding her tracks because Janet made mincemeat of her. Gamble is right about the lord and lady thing. "They're as rough as guts" - she can be so hilarious and savage. If Lydia didn't know why Janet doesn't like her then she'll find out next week. Lydia is the ultimate sh*t stirrer and her fat ass needs to take several seats because she is as thick in the head as she is in the waist. If Janet was critical of Jackie and said some crappy things about her, it says an awful lot that Lydia thinks it's her right to tell Jackie to her face. I feel sorry for Sally for the loss of her husband. Not much out of Gina and Jackie this episode.

Camille's quiet, elegant shade about Rinna and Eileen as her backup was delicious. It went down smooth. The same applies to her ice dildo love - that is the Camille we all know and love. Adrienne is looking like Jocelyn Wildenstein. She needs to stop everything she's doing to her face and go see Paul to sort her out on an episode of Botched. Kyle's new home in the Valley was burglarized and apparently $1 million worth of jewelry was stolen: http://www.dailymail.co.uk/tvshowbiz/article-5219121/Kyle-Richards-Mauricio-Umansky-home-robbed.html It's also confirmed that their Bel-Air house is on the market.

Further detail about how Luann's night in Palm Beach went to hell: https://pagesix.com/2017/12/26/luann-had-previously-dated-the-guy-found-in-bed-with-her/ Ultimately, it comes down to Luann being in bed in the wrong hotel room with an ex she picked up in the bar, which she got into because it was unlocked as a hotel maid was doing turndown service. Luann locked herself in the bathroom and the cops were called. The whole thing could have never happened if she hadn't been wasted.
