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.

    • I very much liked office Cleary and the actress who portrayed her (as you say, Mary Peterson).  A shame her turn didn't evolve into a contract role.   BTW, does anyone know the timeframe/years that Betty Rae served as casting director?  If i understand correctly, she not only led the effort for contract roles, but also for shorter 13- and 26-week roles.  IMO, GL had LOTS of very well-casted, limited roles, too. I'm surprised the actors throughout the soap industry, and especially P&G actors, have not assembled a book or something similar, praising Rae.  Each actor could write a few paragraphs or a page of text describing his or her experience.
    • No. Ruth had an extramarital affair with David while married to Joe.
    • I'm not sure I agree with Bernstein's children on that. Bernstein's life and activism here: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Leonard_Bernstein#Social_activism_and_humanitarian_efforts
    • Thursday & Friday's episodes were excellent. The build-up was most definitely worth the wait (2 months). TMG, I can't give her enough accolades. AM, was also absolutely incredible. I think the fallout is going to have a ripple effect. The little clues that have been dropped,  hopefully, will weave seamlessly to reveal even bigger bombshells for the Dupree's and Martin.
    • Thanks, msn drives me nuts on the one hand but on the other hand their headlines appeal to me. And, I just don't do FoxNews.   
    • The link doesn't work.  The actual link is this: https://www.msn.com/en-us/news/us/composer-leonard-bernstein-s-children-request-his-music-be-played-in-the-kennedy-center-in-rebuke-to-trump/ar-AA1E7gw5 That's a reprint of a FoxNews article. MSN reprints stuff from many sources. You can tell the source from the logo above the headline on the msn page. The FoxNews article is describing what Leonard Bernstein's children wrote -- as a "letter to the editor" of the New York Times. Instead of reading it filtered through FoxNews, here is the original: "Our Dad, Leonard Bernstein, Would Want His Music Played at the Kennedy Center" https://www.nytimes.com/2025/05/02/opinion/kennedy-center-leonard-bernstein-protest.html Non-paywall archived copy of the same NYTimes letter, without commentary: https://archive.is/QaLqD
    • Might be a long shot, because I can't find a thing online about it, but I was Googling the actress that played Nell Cleary (Frank's cop friend that went through academy and then became cops together during the entire Brent Lawrence storyline). To my surprise, she passed away in 2011, at the very young age of 45. I can't find her obituary or anything online about her passing, but I'm curious, does anyone know what happened? Her IMDB only shows a few other acting gigs post-Guiding Light, so she didn't make a career out of it, but I thought she was a great actress in her role as Cleary. Her name was Mary Peterson.
    • What was Ruth Martin's association to the Thornton family?  I only remember the daughter that dated Tad, and she had a buxom mother.  But, did Ruth date David Thorton before Joe?

      Why didn't Steve respect Monica and Jeff's decision?  I get he's Jeff's father, and that's how it came out, but I don't like the ethics of the story. A stranger gets to make life or death decisions over a wife's demands?   I hope Monica secretly never forgave Steve's chauvinism.
    • Question: Jon-Michael Reed's review of 1977 is up in the retro soap section.  It includes a fleeting reference to comedic scenes between Jeanne Cooper and Julianna McCarthy regarding “Kay's would-be beau, Ralph the Plumber”.  Could someone please fill me in will more details? I forgot that Kay and Liz were friendly before Jill stole Kay's husband.  And the thought of Liz playing a comedic scene blows my mind, because I only recall her being dour both in demeanor and wardrobe.
