ALL of Apollo's and Phaedra's drama did not stem around Kenya. There were several episodes where they were having problems with Apollo not wanting to do family activites with Phaedra and him getting annoyed with her an her jobs. And while the Nene and Peter argument did stem from Kenya she wasn't involved in any of the fall out at all. ALL of Kenya's interesting drama came strictly from the other ladies and without them she wouldn't have had an interesting second of screen time.

And yes Porsha is a negative bully. I remember when Peter brought up her relationship with Kordell and everyone else was trying to have a civil adult conversation but Kenya felt the need to call her a beard and everything else under the sun. A bully revels when anything negative happens to someone they don't like and that's what Kenya does. She has hated Porsha ever since she called her Miss America/USA.

I do think Kenya picked on Porsha this season more than say Porsha picked on Kenya. During the season, there were times I saw Porsha being neutral and actually siding with Kenya. On the contrary, in Mexico, Kenya decided to target Porsha at the dinner. Sure Porsha was more or less saying she was being a supportive beard, but the way Kenya (and Patricia) went in on it? Too much, especially considering how many beards Kenya be wearing. It's the definition of picking on somebody because you feel they're an easy target.

Overall, though, their relationship seemed to reach a mellow level for most of the season.

Oh, Cheap beat me to it. re: Nene v Peter stemming from Kenya. No Kenya = no conflict in the first place there. Which was the point re: Nene's s6 storyline.

I thought Kenya and Porsha had definitely come to a plateau of sorts. Dare I say it frenemies during this season pre-reunion of course.

Por has basically said she was a beard all season and Peter then Kenya finally called it out and asked her to be straight up on it. That's bullying? Please.

Yes Kenya needs the other ladies for story. That's why this is the real HOUSEWIVES. Not one. Many. Kandi is the only one that had some story without the other ones because it involved her mother and her finance. But even she needed the other ladies for more story.

People get so bent out of shape when these women discuss others lives, marriages, etc but like - that's the point if the series. To interact. It's why we all accept that enemies invite each other to their parties and trips.

What's Kenya did this season was call bullshit out and people couldn't handle it. She brought it and drove the majority of story this season and it was glorious.

Por came for her at that reunion because she was desperate to save her job. Period. It was clear from the start por was in the attack and when Kenya came back at her once or twice she got physhcial - even if it was pathetic all she did was pull hair - because she's an immature, spoiled little brat as evident by her full on 4 year old tantrum on the floor literally kicking and screaming and then blaming others.

THANK YOU!

I don't get why people are making a big deal about Kenya needing the other women for story as if that's some negative. She really didn't have much to do the first few episodes bc she was so isolated but once she started mixing it up with them again, getting fully integrated into the group, she was on fire and in turn she set them all on fire. She was the catalyst for so much of the drama and they all benefited. Seriously, haters need to just admit that outside of the Kandi/MJ stuff, nearly ALL the most talked about moments in this thread and around the web have involved Kenya. She brings out so much in people and is a hot topic. She generated story and buzz and love her, hate her or even love to hate her, that is why we all watch the show. Of course will deny that as that's expected but if you're honest with yourself, there's no denying that Kenya has put in WORK and centering the show around her escapades has been amazing for this season

You are right in that Kandi was the only one with a strong story that didn't involve the other ladies. I thought Porsha had potential but her story fizzled after the first few episodes and instead of growing as a strong independent woman, she remained the same stupid, ditzy child she was when attached to Kordell, and that most definetly was not interesting to watch.

I feel like these shows (and their fans) use the word BULLY too loosely. I feel like a grown ass person cannot be bullied. A child, yes. A grown woman in her early thirties? Hell no. If you allow someone to speak to you crazily when you're 18+, then you're the fool. I'm one who believes that someone is not feeding you, financing your lifestyle, for f*ckin' you, then their opinion does not matter.

If Porsha wasn't such a dolt and signed up for this show, knowing doggone well these shows will exploit your past, present, and possibly future, then her situation wouldn't've been aired to the world or to Kenya. I'm over people on Twitter, Facebook, and forums pegging Kenya as a "bully." Because if she's a bully then everyone is. Nene. Phaedra. Whorsha too.

Kenya barely interacted with Porsha this entire season yet she is being said to have bullied her all year bc she said sh-t about her in her talking heads. Meanwhile Nene has been disrespecting Porsha all season, calling her out on being stupid, immature, selfish and self centered to her face. Nene is the only one that made her cry during the season bc of her harsh words. Yet Kenya is evil and awful for bullying Porsha by going out of her way to pick on her all year. WTF?

I am not feeling this comment at all. I am all for shading and reading these girls but the scrambled eggs thing is insensitive to me. Porsha is not able to carry a child to term but I wpuld never bring that up as an insult. There are just lines to this where the reality tv personas dont warrant such comments. Edited by Eric83

A lot of people hopping on this bandwagon just hate Kenya. I have never seen so many Porsha fans in her entire tenure on the show. She was dead wrong and I am ready for confirmation that she is fired. Flawless. LOL I am actually laughing at all this backlash because Kenya will be invited back and all the people complaining will be tuned in.

No one was making it a big deal about the other women needing Kenya...the Kenya fans are the ones who brought up how Nene and the others are jealous of her and need her for their stories when ALL of her interesting stories involve her sticking her nose into the other womens marriages and belittleing Phaedra and Porsha every chance she got....well she bullied Porsha one too many times and got mopped. Maybe next season she'll think twice before opening her big mouth.

Once again, can you point to several specific instances this season where Kenya systematically bullied poor innocent victim Porscha? And are we acting like Phaedra didn't give far more than she got? Did the other women not ever speak about Kenya's life and butt into it for talking heads and witty comments?

A bully just doesn't name call. A bully takes the one thing that you are most sensitive about or that hurts you the most and constantly (not just once or twice) uses it against you or uses it to belittle you. Kenya has known from the beginning that her divorce was a difficult subject for Porsha yet she constantly used it agains Porsha and even when Porsha was pouring her heart out her comes Kenya ruining the moment with her snide comments and remarks when she should have been comforting her. What if next season the ladies nick name her Scambled Eggs or constantly bring up how her dog died and she has no more friends over and over again?

I did say as much, but that doesn't change the fact that Kenya and Patricia were being obnoxious pr--ks about it at the dinner. I say that as someone who liked Kenya more than I ever had in the weeks before that. As Kenya says, "don't come for me unless I call for you." Kenya's been more or less proving she rents boyfriends since she's been on RHOA, that doesn't make me think it's right for the other HW's to be OTT anal pr--ks about it like Porsha was at the reunion.

    • Within the Dupree family, I predict Vernon/Anita will be conflicted about what to do about Bill and his role in the whole Ted/Silk Press Sheila situation... especially since Bill knows where the particular bone about Martin is buried. Dani, Chelsea, and Naomi's reactions to what Bill possibly did isn't hard to guess.. but Hayley's reactions will be interesting to hear.  Especially given her recent pregnancy scare.. she might not be so much on Bill's side, or she'll totally surprise us and be totally on Bill's side.   Either way, I think Martin's secret will be the main focus in May sweeps.. with the fall out of the Eva secret playing out in the background... while the Joey/Vanessa/Doug thing continues to boil/develop.
    • Hotel was The Love Boat on land but a little soapier. I will forever maintain that Hotel was a time slot hit. I don't believe that 1983/84 Hotel was a better show than Knots Landing.

    • The timing is strange, though. How far in advance would they normally be on location? The Achille Lauro hijacking was on October 7, 1985. Nancy had arrived in Egypt in the storyline by October 18. But the character of Hawk, Chris' Native American friend from Arizona, had already appeared onscreen by September and brought a letter telling Chris to be in Egypt by October 25th.  Why did they already have the link to Arizona before the reason to cancel the shoot in Egypt?  The dust and the jar it came in were from Egypt though. Nancy bought it there and sent it to Mac as a gift before she came back to the states and followed Chris to Arizona.
    • Actually that is not what happened. Nor is the timing right for it to have been. We learned from a WOST interview with Pete Lemay  in 2006, which can be found on YT, that it was Fred Silverman's idea to do the 90 minute show. I don't know how much you know about him but he had these amazing successes as head of daytime at both ABC & at CBS. Then he came to NBC where basically everything he touched turned NOT TO GOLD but to shite. Some of the most expensive shows ever produced up to that time were huge flops. Although even he, like a broken clock, could be right on occasion. However, as we know, he was not right about the 90 minute show. As a matter of fact, afterward,  NBC programmers, who worked FOR him, were asked why they did it & they were quoted as saying it was because they couldn't think of anything else to try. It was a stupid idea from a man who had reached the point where he was throwing anything at the wall to see if it would stick.

    • I stopped watching Another World in 1990. Simply, lost interest in the show.  I had watched the show from 1973 to 1990. The 90 minute show started the decline of AW.  NBC panicked with expanding AW due to the GH hoopla. As mentioned above, 1982 was a trainwreck for AW.  The introduction of the Shea family, the movie storyline involving Jamie, and Steve Frame favoring Rachel over Alice. The writers went into that direction due to the forgettable performance of Linda Borgeson.

    • Ive seen that theory thrown out but the one thing against it is that Leslie and her family lived in Chicago. She only came back to DC last year after her husband died. Unless they say Alan made a trip to DC and died while away, she wouldnt know about that. However I do think the angle of her finding out that Martin was involved could work as that gives her leverage against Bill too for covering it up. She'd want to get revenge on him by threatening to have him disbarred
    • What a good write-up @Errol! Nice seeing the nod to Duplaix's lead.
