I think Atlanta should have cut porsha and Phaedra and added Claudia and demetria as housewives.

BH and OC did some adjusting to their cast for their recent seasons....OC had a great season 9 due to one of their new.additions and how everyone reacted to.her...while BH seems to.have had a new lease in life after a horrid season 4.

The show would've definitely been popping had they simply added two elements ... Sheree & Marlo. Those two messy queens would've brought the ratings and drama. Especially my Queen Marlo. I agree that last season was popping but that was because they had so many fabulous friends stirring the pot and in the drama. They should've followed the same method this season.

Marlo will never hold a peach. If she was it would've been after Season 6 when she was at the center of Nene and Kenya's feud. It's clear someone at Bravo isn't seeing it for her. Claudia is basically doing what Marlo's purpose would have been (friend for Kenya). And plus too many women on the show don't have men. I don't mind 1 or 2 but the title of the show is a little jarring when the majority of the cast don't have a man or at least a significant other.

ETA: or at least some kids to show a home life. I honestly don't like how RHOA has devolved into just reading and shading it's getting annoying and they're the only franchise like this. I love seeing a girl get read DOWN but this show could use a little balance. Last season did it perfectly.

I love that Kenya doesn't take herself seriously. She was so mischievous and playful in last night's episode and her "YAAS!" always kill me. I also like her friendship with Claudia it seems genuine unlike many friendships on this show, however the episode was boring with a capital B. I'm not sure if ATL is deliberately starting off slow or they don't have much content to air but all the episodes seem like filler except literally the last 5 minutes - which are always previewed the week before as if it's the entire episode. If that's the case I might as well tune in to the last 5 minutes each episode since that's the only time something happens. Next week's confrontation with Claudia and Porsha look entertaining but as usual it will only happen during the last 5 minutes of the show.

I just hope Atlanta doesn't have a 30 episode season like last year (or it felt like one). I'd much rather the shows go back to 13 to 15 episode seasons plus a one or two part reunion.

RHOC had a two part reunion last year and it didn't feel like too much filler was added either.

Well of course he's going to say that he wants us to keep watching. I seriously think that his definition of popping is different from the viewer. I might've been popping when watching in real time but this season has been stagnant. I am kind of hopeful with these next few episodes b/c this is when Phaedra's empire comes crashing down.

I think Kenya said that there are 21 episodes this season but I bet Bravo is going to stretch the season out even more. Bravo likes to milk RHOA for every drop but fails to see it slowly kills the show. I agree that housewives show should be no more than 15-18 episodes a season with two reunions--one being an hour and the finale being 90 mins. That's why the OC did good last year and international housewife shows are excelling. They are too much of a drain to watch.

But Bravo is going to drag these shows out to fill the void of RHOM & RHONJ when they could easily green light new shows to replace them for the time being or go ahead and film the shows. No need in putting them on hiatus. It actually hurts the show by doing so. Look how it hurt NYC last season.

    • You’d think he would’ve learned after the way Sprina took off.  I hope we get a proper Emma/Gio/Trina/Kai quad, as friends, romantic rivals, etc. In the few scenes that the four of them have had together, I felt like there was a natural chemistry between all of them, similar to the way that Cam/Spencer/Trina/Joss was, in the beginning.  And, it would be a lot better than all this stuff with Kai’s surgery. 
    • Hooray we made the exact same critique to Londonscribe!!!!!
    • I don't think they had any idea who he was this time last year. I think they were keeping their options very open. Same with totally dropping the Trina romance that was spoiled for him in the mags once FV clearly took a shine to him. Frank's priorities are bright and blazing in one color. I do think Gio and Emma seem to have worked out given that she is very dry and sarcastic and he is like a hot golden retriever, but I'd still play the field or explore quads with both with very different people - Emma with a scheming young man (of color), Gio with possibly Trina or someone else, or even a boy. Then maybe put them back together, who knows. But of course none that will happen.

    • He definitely got lost in the shuffle last year. First, they were implying that he was Drew’s son, then he was nothing more than just Violet’s bff

      And then they changed him to being Dante and Brook Lynn’s son, which was clunky at first but I’m enjoying the storyline now. 
    • GM is adorable, charming and fun onscreen despite months of nothing to do until recently, and has a bodacious bod. I'm not cosigning the show or this story - I haven't watched a full episode in over a month - but I think we're all taking the small victories in 2025 at this point. I'm open to testing this theory!
    • I think Jason might've posted some numbers for the syndication a while ago and the numbers for Falcon Crest was horrible. Like 1.5 rating or something, which was terrible.    ETA: it was actually Paul Raven:   New to syndication 60 min Fall Guy 67 markets 3.1/8 Falcon Crest 110 markets 1.1/5 To get into the top 40, you needed a 4.6/9 rating for reference - and Falcon Crest managed to get into a lot of markets to begin with. In the fall of 1985 Dynasty, Dallas and Knots were syndicated (show / rating / share / coverage % / markets): Dallas 3.4 10 51.7 92 Dynasty 3.4 10 48.7 47  Knots Landing 3.3 10 12.5 20  So, Knots as an example trippled Falcon Crest's rating with 20 markets - I'm sure those were major ones but it just goes to show you how much Falcon Crest bombed in syndication. 
    • It's not bad but the stories move too slow. It's the same problem when Dan O'Connor was CO-HW with Van Etten, they have a million stories and they all drag on endlessly with no resolution. I'd argue the majority of the stories airing now are good but you get sick of waiting months for something to happen.
