People take the stuff way too seriously. Its just a television show. Yet some act as if RHONJ has descended into pure evil with nothing but sadness and misery all around. The show is still fun to watch (mostly because of Teresa and sometimes the famiily interactions of Melissa and Kathy).

Teresta has no reason to quit unless Bravo gives her a spinoff or she lands a major major deal that involves a tv and/or another book. She's defintely the most sane out of the entire cast and despite the many barbs thrown at her by Caroline, Danielle, Melissa, Kathy, and even Andy himself (who i was ashamed of when I witnessed his personal attack on her) she's still got it together and manages to keep looking fabulous year after year.

Her dress at that last reunion though was absolutely atrocious however.

Brandi definitely earned her spot on RHOBH and while she may not be as rich as Camille, Lisa, Yolanda, or Adrienne she has her own type of honor and class. Plus she tells how it is even if it might not be proper. She may say a few bad words here and there but honestly who doesn't slip up now and then?

I love watching Kim Richards and I know its selfish but I want her to stay on RHOBH for as long as possible. Deep down i know its probably best if she leaves on this high note and continues to stay sober and live a healthy life from now on but I love her talking heads and she helps keep Kyle in her place when Kyle tries to act all big and bad.

LMAO at trying to compare Adrienne "The Hoof" Maloof to Teresa Guidice. Thats classic.

Have you guys been to Bravo's website lately to check out the sneak peaks of the upcoming episode? Lisa goes IN on Adrienne and her disgusting spray on tans....

Thanks for stating the obvious for us "slow" folks.

Different people, different opinions. I don't find watching RHONJ fun anymore. Sure, a lot of people do still find it fun or interesting to watch because it gets good ratings. It is just a television show, that's why I can find it to be rather nasty and choose not to watch it. BTW, I'm not saying I won't watch it, I'm saying it's become a chore to watch. Some shows I look forward to with a big smile, some I don't.

Re: Teresa. If I was the center of a "reality" show where the drama was centered around how-to-treat-me-like-poop (a real person in a manufactured by Bravo land) yet I was popular with the public, I'd quit-it and move on to better things.

Her dog punching her in the nose is a high point? She is pretty good for laughs and quirk. Kim staying is cool but she should be demoted to what she is right now: a FoHW/SoHW.

She's going to get a letter, lol.

In the previews, I see they're trying to give Taylor an alcoholism storyline. I don't know if I buy it. Real or manufactured (for a HW spot)?

I wasn't implying you were slow....but it does sometime seem like people over exaggerate NJ and the "nastiness" of the show. NJ may not be sun and roses 24/7 but that is because there's real sh*t going on behind the scenes and so much emotion thats being played out onscreen.

i find it oddly delicious and it makes me want even more.

As for Kim by "high note" i mean just being sober and clean this year. She's looking so much better now and not just because of her cute little new nose! I just find her to be thinking more clearly, making some valid points while still getting in the mix with her sister and "the ladies". She's had some very touching moments this season (the first being her little speech at the dinner during her little retreat event). Her and Brandi are on good terms and she has an adorable little puppy...

I think life is quite good for Kim Richards right now and i hope it stays that way....

I used to feel that way, then I suddenly really, really didn't feel that way anymore. It felt like work to go through the process of watching it. It just happened. I hope that never happens with me and RHOBH <-- right now, totally my guilty pleasure.

I can agree with that.

I wish Bravo would rid us of Jacqass, Melissa Whorega and her equally fame whore husband from our television screens forever. Jacqueline and Melissa have already proven they will LIE about Teresa to make her look bad and be in Bravo's good graces so I don't believe sh-t they say. Bravo should have shooken up the cast, but it is what it is ratings don't lie and people are eating up what Bravo is offering, changes won't be made unless ratings drop because to truly move forward they would either have to choose Manzo/Lauritas, the Gorgas/Guidices, or a whole new cast and they clearly can't make the decision. I will keep watching tho as long as Teresa is on it.

She and Joe are millions of dollars in debt and he could still go to prison. Teresa will stay on the show to keep pimping her cookbooks and wines. It is really just a job at this point.

LOL I love when I see celebs comment on reality shows. Reminds me that they're just like us. smile.png

I kinda agree. I was too excited for the last reunion but the ganging up on Teresa is a little old, especially when it's over trivial things. Hopefully the new women they have been filming with offer up a change of pace. Though like I said MeHo and Jacqass can exit. I still like Caroline and hope she has lightened up in Season 5. She had a permanent scowl on her face all of Season 4. You already know Kathy is irrelevant to me lol

Well maybe not like.... lol after Season 4 ended I could at least respect her. Jacqueline just started spilling ALL of Teresa's business as soon as they fell out and I haven't liked Melissa or Joe like that since they showed out at their own child's christening. Caroline annoyed me ALOT during Season 4 but at least she hasn't resuluted to the childish tactics the other two have. I think with a new season, new start and a long time between filming maybe Caroline won't be as insufferable as she was.

Oh and the Manzos tweeted Friday night pics of Greg's suprise going away party. BYE! I f-cking hated his ass.

    • Jill Farren Phelps was always very skilled at saying what she meant onscreen in the bluntest way possible, like whenever she wanted fans to support one character vs. the other (hence Megan McTavish groaning about having to write Kale Browne's Sam Rappaport into three days a week at OLTL). Perhaps you should consider doing the same. Historically your intent is always far more obvious than your efforts at coy embroidery anyway. You believe people are dismissing Phelps' accomplishments, and suggest misogyny and fan blinders allow people to too easily pigeonhole and dismiss her skill set. I think we all understand her varied skill set. We're saying it's not enough to make up for her deficiencies as a storyteller and creative. JFP was undoubtedly a skilled technical producer. As a solo storyteller, and de facto HW, she was a repeat and predictable failure. She was not the first or last EP (male or female) to think she was a writer. If you want us to stop taking your behavior personally when you suggest misogyny is at play in board opinions of JFP, perhaps you should consider spending the next 10+ years here not acting like you're the only one who gets it.

      Melissa was here today &amp; we went to Michael's Crafts &amp; Ofc Depot. In Michael's there were two beautiful LITTLE girls who kept staring at me, so I gave them a littel wave &amp; very quietly said HI &amp; then did back. I told Melissa they were staring at me. She smiled &amp; said "Purple. A lot of little girls love purple &amp; you forget but you have purple hair. Seeing you their whole imaginations are transformed! Thinking "That lady has purple hair. That means I can have purple hair! They had no clue before seeing you that it was possible." I just laughed &amp; laughed.
    • This opening scene is hilarious...it's like someone wrote out the script for Philip with one hand. And Rick...sniffing a scarf over and over. And in their next scene they are still sniffing the [&#33;@#&#036;%^&amp;*] scarf as the camera stays all over Philip's bare chest and armpits as he keeps working out. Insane stuff.

      Bay City better be ready, because I'm back!   At Vicky's apartment she is once again drowning in doubts and jealousy. Deep down she realizes that her dream wedding will be a farce and nothing can change that. Bridget tries to calm her down, but the heroine is determined to suffer. She is not hearing any positive thoughts. She doesn't believe Jamie will marry her. At the Cory Publishing building another farce is in process. Iris, once again pretending to be the angel of love and sisterhood... is telling Mac and Rachel some wonderful news. When Iris has good news, you really need to look out for yourself. That's when things are bad. So what are the news? Miss Devil has put Amanda up for an award! Mac is smiling from ear to ear, and Rachel is suspicious. Maybe that's the effect Iris is looking for. To once again accent on the fact that Rachel doubts and criticizes her daughter. Iris will do anything to destabilize their relationship. She is like a cancer. Back to Vicky! Jamie is at the door. Looking like a sad puppy, he has come with a surprise. No, he is not gonna leave her and her unborn... Not yet. He has bought her earrings. Sad face. How nice. NOT. Victoria, of course... manages to break one of them the moment she touches it. Bad premonition maybe? She was back in hysterics. It's not easy to trap a man into marriage. Then you have to live with someone that didn't want you in the first place.  We were introduced to a new character (to me at least she is new) - Cass's sister - Stacey. She is giving me "hidden skeletons in the closet"-vibes. Love a girl like that. Stunning actress. I like her. The highlight of the episode was the strange and creepy reveal of Evan the escort... hugging someone named Janice's grave. I remember she had an issue with Rachel... and Rachel killed her in self defense I think... It was hinted in prior episodes, but I lack the context and story. I just know that everyone at the Frame house was mad that Rachel killed the bish. But I also got the impression that this Janice was sick in the head. So Evan is now talking to her grave and telling her he is going to ruin Rachel's life basically. Oh, Evan... I liked you better as a sexy gigolo.  Overall - 10/10 - how can I rate it lower when I haven't watched in months!!!

    • Once again, Marlena and Kayla were used very effectively and I couldn’t be happier.  Marlena counseling Johnny and then Chanel was the best part of today. They’re really delving into the human emotion of this storyline and I think that’s a good thing. It feels so much mature than it was before. EJ’s fear about what could happen to Johnny if he doesn’t let go of his anger could lead to some really good storylines in the future.  I also really appreciate the way that Paula/Jeanne are mixing it up and having different characters interact with each other. It was nice to see Shawn and Johnny remember that they’re cousins and share a scene together. I liked the parallel that was drawn between the two of them, and what’s going on with their fathers. I did have mixed feelings about everything with Cat though. I enjoyed Chanel warning her about EJ, mostly because it played into the way that she was written today. But I wasn’t the biggest fan of the Chad/EJ scenes. The two of them discussing Chad’s potential feelings for Cat didn’t really keep my interest.  But above all, I feel that everyone is being used more effectively and that we’re getting a better understanding of everyone as well. And that was exactly what Days needed.  
    • It's a wild story for sure, especially the final conclusion (and fireworks offcamera, like Victoria Wyndham tearing into Michael Logan).

    • I did some research and the story wrapped up with Eric,a caretaker responsible for Georgina's death who then  tried to do away with Laurie but a vision of Georgina spooked him and he smashed into a mirror, dying of glass wounds. So there was a supernatural element. I wonder if the Brody character in the credits was Eric Brody?
