Updated the link to the Harpers Bazaar article (https://www.harpersbazaar.com/culture/features/a28900567/kris-jenner-yolanda-hadid-channel-dynasty-characters/). The pics are... holy [!@#$%^&*] I can't describe them. Look at this one -- it's like two facial expressions battling against botox:

I agree on the curiosity of the Mean Girls group imploding and turning on one another because that's how it often goes in real life.  I would be here for a Rinna vs. Kyle fight of "who's the leader of the pack?" and have them both look bad(der).  Gosh, these shows can really destroy real-life long term friendships.  I guess we can be happy, for their sakes, that Eileen didn't stay too long for her and Rinna to eventually have an on-camera falling out? 

 

+1 definitely.   S3 & S4 was Atlanta at its finest before it got too manufactured for the cameras. For Cynthia, I think at the time when it originally aired she was a little boring, but when you watch it again, she's the calm in the midst of the storms, and her family drama was authentic. She's one that just got better and better over time.

 

I... uh... what? 

 

I will say kudos to that Linda Evans wig. Spot on.

I concur. The Krystle wig is perfectly done.

 

Yeah, I'm kind of glad that Eileen kept her dignity to a certain extent and went back to acting. It's funny how when she's acting on soaps, she exudes this warmth, complexity and humanity through her characters that makes me love her again.

 

Don't feel too bad for Rinna and Kyle. I don't think that was ever a real-life long term friendship so much as a passing, friend-of-a-friend acquaintance. Kyle and Kim OTOH...

Also, I just want to say re: Atlanta that even though I dissed seasons 4 onwards, I really, really rated S8 aka the first season without Nene aka the season with Kim Fields. Cynthia kicking Porsha off her on that boat was just . Not that I condone violence or anything!

Other than Kenya being in the wrong with Kim Fields I liked Season 8. And it was probably the last time Nene was subtle as she tried to get her crown back from Kenya by taking a page from Kenya's own book and played everyone against each other.

 

Also the first time Cynthia was full on feisty due to her drama with Peter.

 

 

I feel like this was a while back...maybe around the time news got out that either GB was joining BH or had filmed her first scene, but I was reading through comments and someone made a good case for suspecting that Lipsa was up to something this season. From the fact that the two new girls were friends of hers (I think GB is loosely a friend vs the other one) to her actions online like having Erika's back to her attempts to distance herself from some of the other girls all of a sudden to an article where Camille mentioned that post-reunion that Lipsa is the only one that has contacted her making one go hmmmm. Why would she do that? What would she have to gain? Her movements I wanted to say the someone said Instgram, but I might be wrong has been very strategistic in a way those girls were always accusing LVP of being. What was interesting was that until Fashion Week, it looked like she was doing it under the rader and under Kyle's nose. I feel like she also made some cryptic comment about Kyle, but it's been so long I don't remember the context.

 

But reading it and seeing what they put out it does look like Lipsa does have a posse forming so the girls might just be split between Kyle/Teddi and Lipsa/Erika/Garcelle/NewGirl with Dorit with the winner aka Team 2. Which would be intriguing for the trainwreck I WANT to happen. 

 

She's been putting the cards in her favor. So...why? 

 

So....good theory from what I remember.

I am probably the only one who thought the whole Eileen Davidson gig on RHOBH was a complete disaster. I didn't like her from the start when she was STUNNED LVP didn't know she was married three times. Bitch, who do you think you are, Angelina Jolie?

 

And then LVP asked about the affair WHICH HAPPENED. And was confirmed by Eileen multiple times. And then she wanted for LVP to apologize for asking about the affair since HER KIDS ARE WATCHING THE SHOW EVEN THOUGH THE WHOLE AFFAIR WAS PUBLIC KNOWLEDGE.

 

Her only contribution to the show is that now we have the YOU BEAST meme. That's about it. Bye girl.

Atlanta season 6 was hands down the best. For as many episodes that season had, not one was a snooze. Plus, it was glorious watching Nene implode while Kenya snatched her crown and scepter! Kim Zolciak is the definition of trailer trash and I can’t stomach most of the early seasons because of her evil ass. The biggest mistake Bravo made was bringing her and Nene back to RHOA.

RHOBH News:

 

Nothing major, but some news has leaked out. No rumors of any potential drama between anybody so far. Teddi revealed today that she doesn't know if she's a HW, which is pretty good confirmation she'll just be a friend. It was unlikely they'd have 8 HWs so this is probably true. Also, Eileen revealed that the movie premiere for 7 Days To Vegas (her new movie) will be filmed for the show and the girls are coming. Kyle has been in North Carolina filming the Halloween sequels so I'm curious how long that'll take her away. We have no way of knowing if her role will be for both sequels or if it's big or small so there is no telling.

In other words, this is about to be one of the following:

 

  • A flop as season a la season 11 of RHOA where the break out new girls in order to stir up drama but to no avail, thus leading to a retool and bringing back old faces to stir up drama (i.e. Brandi) 
  • A boring mess until production will pulls either Dorit or Rinna aside and tell her to amp it up in the drama department. 

The writing is on the wall with BH. The magic they once had is gone. This upcoming season will be the beginning of the end, and the women only have themselves to blame as they allowed their jealousy for LVP steer them blind.

    • I'm not sure if the boy Carrie 2 seduced (I think his name was Ron) was still in high school or in college, but I remember he was very shy. I don't recall her making a pass at Alan, but she did make one at Justin, and she ended up banging Josh. I think there was an out of town business man too. Reva thought Josh and Vanessa were having an affair. Vanessa had just been fired by Roger, and when Reva took off to India, Van started helping Josh with the children. He then hired Van to work at Lewis. She would hear him on a business call with Van and think they were arranging a tryst. Or they sat too close together on the couch, so of course they were hiding an affair from her. It was very weird and blew up really quick.  It culminated at the party Reva was throwing at the club to introduce Dylan to Justin. Reva imagined everyone whispering about her and then she dumped a tray of drinks on Vanessa. When Vanessa hauled her into the ladies room to ask WTF, Reva accuses them of having an affair, asks if Van's pregnant, and then knocks her to the floor. I do think Claire had a tumor. I know around Valentine's day, Claire is making passes at a young businessman (or maybe even someone college age), and Ross (Van kinda pushed her at him because she's not keen on Calla). There's also a young intern played by Burke Moses that I think she sleeps with.

        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).
