RHOCheshire s3e2: Whoa! I knew Dawn & Leanne would turn on each other once Magali was out the picture but who knew it'd be this soon? Also, who knew I'd actually grow to respect Leanne somewhat? So much that I am not even calling her Lapdog as of now! Even though it is early, I am enjoying how the new girls are sticking together, and how Seema/Stacey supported Misse with the Dawn incident. Glad that both of those women actually saw through the bull that was Dawn's apology too. Dawn's body language that entire scene displayed that she wasn't genuinely sorry for her comment towards Misse. I get Tanya is preggers, which results in her being hormonal, but she was a twat to Misse for no reason. I think that she is seriously becoming the new lapdog.

Fans hate Victoria? Why? I think she's one of the bright spots on the show. A lot of them claim she can't act or hate her for defending Robert. There was a lot of outrage from these types of fans when she dared to be upset that Robert was shot and when she blamed the Whites, then Aaron. These fans can go gaga over a serial rapist but have no time for her. I think that Isobel Hodgins is a great actress. Plus, I enjoy that Victoria is neutral when it comes to Andy and Robert, and that she calls them both on their crap. That's what makes the character great. She's a younger Greek chorus or the conscious of the show, which has been lost on soaps for years.

Me too.

RHOMelbourne s3E8: Melbourne Dubai drama > Beverly Hills Dubai drama Oh Pettifleur! She was a hot ass mess this episode. I root for her when she puts Jackie in her place, but she loses me when she makes situations all about herself. Her crying on the beach b/c the women didn't acknowledge her was just stupid. Even when they tried gather sympathy for her, she quickly reverted back to being a bitch and taking a dig at Chyka of all people. I thought the women coming down hard on her at the end was necessary. She asked for it. Also, I hate people that shop like Pettifleur. My sister is the same way where she'll spend 2 hours in one store while I am quick with my shopping. I get that Pettifleur is proud of her body but it's too much. She doesn't have to spend forever looking in a mirror. Gamble annoyed me this episode too. I don't like how she continuously went to the other women to dog Gina. Like Gina said, if the had a issue with her, talk to her. Not the other women. Next week looks good too. I like how the drama is lighthearted compared to RHOBH, who were filming in Dubai at the same time as them. I also noticed they went to some of the same spots of the BH women. I am wondering if their production companies worked together and planned both shows' trips (the spots they'd go see) together. RHOP reunion was lit! Why couldn't they be this interesting during the season? But that's fine. I expect after this reunion that s2, which they start filming in a month, will be EPIC.

Glad it wasn't just me that thought that was absurd. They could've simply had him turn around and just walk out. It was so unnecessary to have him check his teeth. I guess it was the equivalent of Kim [Tate] checking her makeup when Frank had his heart attack.

I don't think this season has tarnished her b/c she's actually tried staying away from Yolanda's ailment from what we've seen. It's Rinna, who kept bringing it up time and time again. I feel like they should've let this sh-t die at the picnic when Rinna and YoLyme had it out. I seriously don't believe that LVP started the Munchausen crap b/c when Rinna brought it up to her the first type, she and Kyle were both stunned. It was also LVP, who told Rinna not to explore it unless she was for certain. I think that after everything they saw happen on the previous season of the OC, they should've known to drop this ailment story quick because it doesn't go over well for any of the women on the cast. This season was pure sh-t. I need BH to revert back to the first season when it was all about glitz and glamor. This show gets darker and darker as the seasons progress. I am borderline wishing they'd scrap this show or do a mass retool like they did NY and NJ.

Lips brought the receipts. I wouldn't consider those to be receipts. Yeah, LVP called her ten times but so what? That still doesn't mean she pushed her into bringing up Munchausen. Rinna brought that crap up b/c SHE needed a story. She did the same crap with Kim's alcoholism last year. It doesn't matter. The second Rinna said LVP called her she said she never called and then said if she did she rarely called her at her home. That's when Rinna pulled out the call history because she knew LVP would lie and brought proof. It's also why Erica was amused. If LVP can clearly lie about not calling her, it's more than probable she's lying about everything else and Rinna is correct. Rinna is tired of being thrown under the bus since they all engaged in the Munchausen accusation, which she was all too happy to be the ring leader but she thought LVP would own her part in it. I suspect LVP did more than her fair share off camera since she doesn't like Yolanda however LVP is acting like she never did. If I was Rinna I would be pissed too. Rinna never said that LVP called her at home. Rinna said that LVP said never called her. LVP said she never called Rinna at home, so Rinna was lying. Rinna has a history of exploiting people's ailments for her benefit and she needs to own it. Even if LVP told her offscreen about Munchausen, it was Rinna who brought it up onscreen and stayed going after Yolanda like a dog with bone. That's on Rinna. Not on LVP or Kyle. Again, Rinna needs to take her own advice and--

*prays eagerly that this is true* Oh I have never wanted a character to die like I have Jane ... well except for the Whites on ED that's another story.

I think LVP will feel the heat from the ladies, but the ladies will catch hell from the audience. No one believes YoLyme's antics of running off stage. It was staged to garner sympathy but it falls flat. Rinna has officially shown her hand as crazy at this reunion. Erika is of course eating it up b/c she thinks that she and Yolanda will be the new 'queen bees' of BH, but it ain't gonna happen. Like all other housewives, she'll fall victim of the 2nd year curse. It's just written all over her.

I don't mind when soaps usually do a modern spin on historic events in the show's canon, but I agree that the Robert pulling a 'Kim Tate' was absolutely ridiculous. It's obvious they are trying to use Robert to gain sympathy for the Whites and I (too) and not falling for it. Not seeing as they've done heinous things since they came on the show. Chrissie going around despairing Robert's character was hilarious. Especially, coming from the same woman that caused a helicopter crash almost a year ago. I think she should NEVER question anyone's character seeing as she caused the deaths of many. Lawrence in that hospital bed acting like a big ass baby was funny. I wanted Bernice to smother his miserable ass with a pillow after a few seconds of him begging. I just think this whole thing is ludicrous. A grown ass gay man begging for a his straight wife to stick by side. On the lighter note, I did enjoy Leyla and David's scenes. Their friendship is one of the few bright spots on this show. I don't mind Gabby and Jacob either; however, I wish they'd make them friends instead of ushering them into some teen romance. We all know how they typically end--in teen pregnancy, which is something I don't wanna see in the near future.

Sucks how Jill Lorie Hurst never landed another job at another daytime soap. I thought she was phenomenal during GL's final year. Sucks no one tried to even scoop her up post GL.

I am SO proud that Andy gave Lawrence's prehistoric ass an ultimatum tonight! I cannot wait for Robert to get a hold of that old fart. I just want someone to tell Chrissie all her love interests have more sexual chemistry with her father than they do with her. She really doesn't have chemistry with her men. Her pawing and looking over Andy fell flat. I didn't believe it for one second.

I remember reading that and remember that Maureen Garrett said in an interview later saying that she wished Holly became a lesbian. Personally, I would've hated it much like I hated Olivia being turned into a lesbian. I would've accepted either of them engaging in a tryst or two with a woman but no become full-blown lesbian. Not Holly and Olivia--two man-eaters in their heydays. I'm actually glad that P&G nixed it. As a gay man, I personally hate when soaps make characters become insta-gay. I find it somewhat insulting. Especially, when these are characters we've seen live lives as heterosexual men and women, engaging in healthy (and unhealthy) heterosexual relationships.

Damn. LVP went in. I adore LVP but honestly, she's lying. It's obvious she was trying to plant Kyle into the situation and Kyle prevented it from happening. Much like my beloved Kenya on ATL, as people on here like to deny it, LVP loves to stir the pot. It's part of their jobs; however, I think that both women need to sit the f-ck back in their upcoming seasons and allow the chaos to ensue without them getting involved. LVP's hands are getting too bloody when they don't need too. What is ludicrous about the whole situation is that Rinna is now carrying this situation like a dog with a bone when Kyle moved on from it and squashed it. It just shows how Rinna has nothing going on in her own world that she has to piggyback off everyone else's stuff. I see her ass getting exposed next season if she's brought back. Eileen too. The girls questioning Kyle and LVP's relationship is stupid. Have they not been paying attention to Kyle's relationship with Kim and Kathy, her own sisters? Her relationship with LVP pales in comparison as at least LVP doesn't drain her to capacity like her true siblings do. Some people have toxic relationships. If the people in the relationships like it, I love it. Like Kathryn, it's no one's business but their's. Rinna is moron as she brought up Munchausen and said she got it from her stylist. So now it was LVP who brought up to you? It's obvious that Rinna is inconsistent and no longer a reliable source. As she told Kim last season, "Own your sh-t." Looks like someone needs to take their own advice. Can't believe I am about to say this but Rinna somewhat makes me wish that TayShanna or Brandi were still on the show; they'd dig into her closet and pull some scandalous sh-t out on her to expose her and shut up her up, which is necessary at this point. Eileen calling LVP a manipulator while constantly pulling Rinna's strings does not help her in her witch hunt. It makes her a big ass hypocrite, which is what she is. She does the exact same things LVP does except no one has called her out on her crap ... yet! One point I do agree with Eileen and Rinna is that this all stems from LVP and YoLyme not liking each other. However, these women chose to get involved and exploit the elephant in the room to give them a story. No one manipulated them. They chose to get involved and now they are all knee-deep in it.

Do you all think that Paul inadvertently caused the hotel explosion? I thought the scenes with Josh's death were hard to watch. Especially, when he was telling his daughter, Matilda, farewell.

Do you all think that Claire's writing only worked at RH and later GH because it was more along the lines of ABC daytime soaps and not CBS soaps, which were more rooted in realism, hearth, and community? Possibly. At its best, Claire Labine's work possessed urbane qualities, sharing Agnes Nixon's penchant for topical storylines, if not her broad sense of humor. In fact, I think it says a lot that Labine's two biggest successes were on shows that were set in New York (three, if you count LOVE OF LIFE, which might have been set in NY as well, but don't quote me on that). That was just her milieu. However, to suggest the CBS soaps were more rooted in realism implies Labine's work was the opposite. If anything, the further she strayed from the simple, everyday, character-driven stuff that characterized her best years on GH and especially RH, the more she faltered as a HW. Thanks, Khan!

Ugh. Don't get me started on Robert/Andy/Chrissie/Lawrence. I didn't care for Lawrence before but tonight's episode solidified my hatred for him. His daughter, I couldn't care less for. I blame her for everything. Andy annoys me but I still care for him. I don't appreciate that he was beaten up b/c Lawrence was worried that Bernice was possibly having an affair with him. If anything, he shouldn't care. He's gay! I just hope that this incident with Andy will blow up in the White family face. Plus, Bernice needs get out that family now!

Well I am not surprised (if true) that Rauch was sabotaging her work at GL. Given his chaotic history in daytime, it wouldn't surprise me if he did. Do you think that she would've been able to handle the beast that is ATWT? Part of me thinks that she would've done well with the older characters. It would've been the younger crowd I would've seen her struggle with.

No. It's two pages back. @Mr. Vixen I wanna know your opinion on this video below. Looks like Porsha is coming for Nene....
