Luann is evil? That's going a bit far... not when we have so much real evil going on in the world right now! As far as karma is concerned, Luann got paid back and then some. She had Ramona throw her first marriage in her face, and EVERYBODY threw her second one in her face seasons 8 and 9. As far as I am concerned, Luann learned her lesson after the pirate episode and when she eventually lost Jacques. She was demoted to FOH in season 6, but instead of being a pot-stirrer, she focused on bonding with the other women (I think the presence of Heather as a positive person who confronted the toxicity, also helped set the tone for Luann). In particular Luann was a supportive friend to Sonja who was in danger of losing her home and in complete denial over it. That is when I knew that deep down, when the chips are down and the Count's money is no longer there,  Luann stays positive, keeps it moving, and remains a good friend. As a viewer and a fan, she won me over from that season on. 

 

She's made some very public missteps since then but evil? No. Human, imo. Relatably human and flawed. But also not somebody who wallows in her own misfortune, plays the victim, or triumphs in the misfortune of others. That is an asset in my book. Tbh the attraction of a show like RHONY is not good-or-evil personalities, but shades of grey. There is far more to all these women than just being good or bad. And I enjoy it that way! It keeps me on my toes as a viewer.

RHOD cast celebrating D'Andra and her husband's 4-year wedding anniversary in full length gowns, in true 80s Dallas style. Tammy Faye Bakker Mama Dee was there too! Only person missing was Brandi (hmmmm). I wonder if Dallas is filming and if this party was included in the filming. I sure hope so! Dallas deserves a S3. It was arguably the best franchise of 2017.

So they ARE filming for S3. That's great! 

 

Glad all the cast is back. I'm not wild about Kameron but I can take her in small doses. Brandi is needed for pot-stirring and drama. And D'Andra has been a revelation.

Why does Beverly Hills always rely on one dumbass non-event as their main story arc throughout each season?  it's so exhausting.  If it weren't for the glamour, money and big trips, this series really would be over.  After Season 3, I just haven't really loved it.  I also see next week that Erika pulls another Hong Kong and attacks Teddi out of nowhere.  I really enjoyed Erika during her first season, but when she's really being a bitch, she's being a bitch, and it ain't cute.

 

I can't wait for NYC to return.  Atlanta and BH have been underwhelming this year.

The Potomac trailer just dropped.  It looks ok.  New housewife and Charrisse has been dropped to Friend status.  The Karen stuff looks good, but not really here for Ashley or Robyn's marital issues. 

 

Wasn't Katie supposed to be back??  I guess that didn't work out.

LOL I was like 'Are we only halfway through the season?'

LVP did it perfectly. You know everyone else will talk smack about the 'sniper' waiting to punish Dorit publicly... but this is hardly revenge in the most evil sense of the word. Dorit talked behind LVP's back, LVP knows it and has mostly forgiven her, but is going to toy with her a little bit to remind Dorit not to become too complacent. Even PK seems to understand this and made no effort to make a scene and defend his very own Donna Martin like some porky David Silver. 

 

From the previews, looks like some of the women are out to get Teddi. It's a shame, because I am warming to her. Teddi makes her own mind up and is not swayed by the other women. Some would say LVP might have a problem with somebody like that, but -- surprise, surprise -- it is self-proclaimed truth-bombers Erika and Rinna who are gunning for her. Rinna was on WWHL recently and there was suggestion that Teddi should be fired after this season. So the agenda is clear here.

 

Speaking of Rinna... I'm wondering if this is her final season. She seems ready to bow out after four seasons. Her heart is not into it, she's not really filming with the others and doesn't seem particularly close with any of them tbh.

    • You're probably right. They may have just wanted edits of certain characters. Hopefully the rest is around.
    • Of course!

      I'm wondering if there were bits cut from this footage, because to me it seems that may be the case. At 11:23, Laurie tells her psychiatrist that the bar phoned and told her Mark got into a fight and needs to be picked up. It starts to fade to the next scene, you hear some different music begin and get cut off between the static, and where you'd expect to see the aftermath of the fight, we cut back to a later scene of Laurie in bed worrying about what's happening. The credits at the end also show that more than Mark, Laurie and Dr. Northcote should have been in this episode. Another character, Brody, played by Ed Setrakian, is mentioned but not shown. If this is the case, perhaps the original fan who saved this episode has the additional scenes.
    • Anyway… It’s a shame that the video that depicted Leticia’s death was removed from YT.

    • Ms. Phelps holds a BFA in directing from Carnegie Mellon University, awarded in 1972. At a time when women were underrepresented in directing programs, she was one of the few women in her graduating class. To suggest that she possessed no further talents than completely changing the style of music used on soaps seems like a vast underestimate when one reads her online biography through an objective lens. I guess that I should be more clever than to constantly blame misogyny for these misguided interpretations of her management style.  But, I'll never comprehend why fans unquestionably align their opinions even years after fact. Post-modernism, and the ability to reinterpret context through the study of history, seems to elude this conversation.

    • This is 100% correct.  It was even on the nightly news where the US Government would not let the cast and crew travel to Egypt because it was deemed not safe.  The Achille Lauro hijacking took place on October 7, 1985, when the Italian ocean liner MS Achille Lauro was hijacked by four men representing the Palestine Liberation Front off the coast of Egypt, as she was sailing from Alexandria to Ashdod, Israel. The location shoot was probably scheduled to be filmed in mid-October to air throughout November with a two week tape to air date.  Remember on the show they did some in studio scenes doubling for Egypt before shifting the action to Arizona.  It was an awkward end to a truly bizarre storyline.

      New episode from late 1973 or early 1974!
    • Coronation Street had a very good story where one of the characters befriended a man who she later learned had been involved in her husband's death - when told right it can be very powerful (not like AMC trying to make it a romance). ATWT almost had a big fire in mid-1994, so this seemed to be a "thing" with P&G at the time. I guess it fits the disaster backstage atmosphere.
    •   @jmgaw did not refer to Luke and Laura. Throughout 78 GH's ratings continued to rise as AW's fell. That turnaround was getting a lot of attention in the soap press with Scotty/Laura, Rick/Leslie/Monica etc . So the 90 min decision was a reaction to that. I guess the thinking was that 60 min expansion had worked so starting AW a half hour before might keep viewers from switching to GH at 3pm. I don't think anybody really thought it would work. The most sensible solution would have been to expand The Doctors and hope for a GH like turnaround, but for reasons unknown TD never went to an hour.
