OC: I didn't bother to watch when the show aired in real time. Just finished the Seeing Red episode with Eddie's birthday party.

 

The show has been a mess for 2-3 seasons. It's not horrible, but it's just very boring. And the drama seems manufactured.

 

Gina and Emily are OK additions, I feel terrible for Gina's clearly destroyed marriage. It's never good when the husbands are wrapped up in the drama....looking at you Shane and Steve. 

 

I remember an interview or TH with Vicki where she said it's hard to pretend to be friends with people who are 20 years your junior. There's not much in common and that's why she befriended Shannon so quickly, they are close in age and share similar interests.

Kyle is the worst. Truly. And what's so pathetic about RHoBH is that they've got real world scandals going on between each of Dorit/PK, Mauricio, and Tom Girardi being sued for millions, while the debt collectors are banging on Dorit's doors. That, juxtaposed against their petty, glamorous lives, is what viewers want to see. 

 

Kyle hates LVP. She has since the first season when it became apparent that LVP was the star of the show, to Kyle's shock, and she's been after her ever since. Making friends with Brandi is no surprise, I'm sure she'd love to have her back, thinking it will keep LVP away. And maybe it will, but I don't think LVP is going to be overly concerned about it either way.

 

In other news, did anyone else see that Teddi had tried to get her brother onto VPR and when he wasn't featured on the show, things...changed:

Riddle me this:

 

Let's say Dorit did lock the dog in the basement, how would the kill shelter or the LVP Dog staff know that information?  Lucy Lucy Apple Juice didn't tell them and there are no signs of being in a basement.  Also, nobody has a basement in LA when you live in the hills.  So, did the John's make stuff up out of thin air?

Or did Teddi make it up out of thin air to justify why she did what she did. Speaking of riddles, how did the kill shelter know that it was a reality star who didn't want the dog? Didn't Lucy Lucy Apple Juice go to a "lovely woman and a lovely home" per Dorit? 

 

As I've said previously, my bet is the only lovely woman Dorit gave the dog to is called Shel(ly) Ter.

Finally!  Atlanta was finally good and juicy. The Eva stuff was entertaining and fresh. 

 

Now we have the finale with Kenya and I can’t wait. Nene sucks so much, she’s the most selfish and ignorant housewife we have. Ironically she’s one of the funniest too, which bugs me that I like her in that way.

This episode was pretty perfect. Contrast the reveal of Eva’s potential money problems and RHOBH talking about a dog. These ladies even when they’re not having their best season still give more than them tired hoes. 

 

It was also nice to see the beginning of Nene’s downfall, which as usual is her fault. She had plenty opportunity to tell Eva prior to the event so why was it so wrong for Tanya to tell her? I hated Tanya bending over backwards to apologize to Nene. I can’t wait til her jealousy over Kenya comes out. Again, why Nene is feuding with Kenya is beyond me. They got along the last time she was on the show! Nene kills me. Ruining all her friendships for what?

 

MVP remains Kandi. Unlike Nene, she is the true OG for me. She’s been on longer than anybody and is the true glue that holds the show together. I loved the family planning scene with Riley and Mama Joyce and opening another restaurant was fun. It’s crazy how successful Kandi is. I just love to see her success. She’s such a low key but enjoyable personality.

I'm glad Kenya's returning for the season finale. She's been missed. 

 

I can never keep track of Nene's opinion of Kenya. Last year at the reunion they were chummy going after Sloth Zolciak on the other couch. Nene's always so back-'n-forth with her liking/loathing of Kenya I can never take her seriously. I mean, she was championing for Phaedra to come to Andy's baby shower??? 'Nuf said.

        If the standard of play in the women's final yesterday wasn't of the highest caliber, that is not something you could say about today's final. It was absolutely fantastic tennis. 
    • When Barbara's letter was read (partly in Barbara's voice), there was commenting upthread that Barbara's voice is similar to the voice of Naomi's unhoused client June.  It did sound like her.  June is played by Jasmine Burke.  Per closing credits, Barbara was voiced by Sherita Bolden.  Still possible that they are connected. From our discussion on the May thread:  Looks and/or voices similar between June, Haley, and Tracy.   Tracy looks like Debbi Morgan. LOL so June might be connected to Haley, Tracy, or Barbara; and/or Samantha&Tyrell. I love that we don't know!
    • In the 1987 episodes, Mary has wonderful conversations with MJ and Cheryl. This is a realistic family with believable dynamics. Mary's ambivalence towards Vince is played nicely. Denise Alexander is so good here. I don't know what happened that the writers or producers just decided to chuck it all away. I don't FF these scenes. The show had a strong family that could have had years of storyline and they did nothing with them. I really don't get it. 
    • I can't speak for Sonni, but I thought Annie came off as neurotic from very early on. That's just how Cynthia Watros plays her parts, and the writing went along. I don't think Claire was mentally ill - they claimed she had a brain tumor, didn't they? I am never sure just why they made the effort given that she was leaving anyway. 
    • @DeeVee Claire is a perfect example. So many women came to Springfield as competent, smart, and talented professionals. Then they’d attract a so-called “good guy,” get dumped, and spiral into complete chaos. What always strikes me is how clearly it plays like a male fantasy—yet it was written and sold to a female audience.  I'm not a content expert, but I don't think cis gendered women fantasize about losing control of their mental faculties in response to an orgasm. Similar to Holly's story, it seems repulsive, because I don't believe women fantasize about becoming more vulnerable and appealing to men after they've been assaulted.
    • I just watched some parts of an episode of GL where Roger has just been shot by Holly. Rita then admits to Hillary that Roger raped her. Kasdorf is such a fantastic actress. I wish there were more of her work available. 
    • -- Alex Alegria has almost a full sleeve tattoo on one arm and a large tatt on one pec. I see no indication that the show is covering up his ink,
    • Didn't Carrie2 even seduce a minor? Ick. Oh, yeah, and she even tried to seduce Alan, but this was his post-prison era when he was trying to prove to everyone he had changed. It's funny that of all people he didn't go for it. Wait. Josh had an affair with Vanessa? Or she just thought he did? I know people always say "it's just a soap" but the way mental illness is portrayed on soaps (and that goes for pretty much all of them) has always been not great, especially PPD. They practically turned Claire into The Joker. She also was trying to seduce men. (I notice that now Mary Ryan Munisteri is listed as co HW with Ryder in the 1986 episodes, Claire has calmed down a lot. Never thought her GL career was very good but seems like she tried to course correct that a bit).
    • sss Ms. Tunie is a goddess. I feel all the anger, pride, sadness, arrogance, dignity, fear, love, and other emotions in everything she does as Anita.
