I haven't caught up with last night's episode but reunion trailer for NJ looks 

Please register in order to view this content

 

Usually a two-part reunion means TPTB did not have faith in the season, but I believe NJ kept solid numbers. The fact is, it was a low episode count, and I assume that decision was made when the pandemic really hit the fan back in March-April 2020. Bravo wasn't sure how Covid restrictions would hit filming so they played it safe. When NJ actually started to film in late summer, by that point Bravo had some procedures established.

 

Anyway, it has been a very entertaining season for me, and the reunion trailer really shows how strong an ensemble cast this is. It's a cast I have a soft spot for, which is not something I can say about all the franchises. Also, everyone (with possible exception of human mannequin Melissa) has got something going on in that trailer! Even the husbands. It is strength in depth and in numbers. Gotta acknowledge that Jennifer and Jackie came ready. Reunion is going to be jam-packed!

 

Oh, BTW this is amazing. Bill came to the finale party as PRINCE -- Purple Rain era:

It's exhausting and they are doing too much. Apparently Court's brother CHART (yes that's his name) waded into this controversy too and went after Tiffany on Twitter. It's like, STOP. I get you're trying to make another season happen, but what you are actually doing is driving the fast bus to Cancellation with these antics. As for Kameron, I feel like her true nature has been exposed and I'm really over her. No wonder she 'bonded' with Brandi and Steph this season.

Very hollow. Who is this guy? What does he do besides 'entrepreneur'? Some film-producing apparently, and a restaurant somewhere? At least with the 'Hot Dog King' there was a legitimate catering company. It's only been two days since this story broke, and already Simon Guobadia is all over social media promoting himself and looking for opportunities.

 

It was notable how several different news sites talked about Fallyn leaving 'his house' this week. The wording says a lot. Simon is the one with ALL the cards in this triangular scenario. She likely left with the clothes on her back and not much else, and she won't be getting much else besides possibly a small payoff.

 

Maybe Porsha thinks she can do better than Fallyn when it comes to this dude's money (IF he actually has any). But despite having a years-long rep as a kept woman (I'm putting it nicely), Porsha doesn't strike me as all that clever. He obviously is practiced in juggling pretty women with dollar signs in their eyes and tossing them out when he's done.

 

 

 

Luann posted video of the private jet back to NYC after All-Stars, and Teresa was sitting with Kenya and Cynthia, deep in conversation. I wondered if they had struck up a friendship. Now we know! I hope they show some of it on All-Stars.

Welp. Looks like Tiffany is quitting. I don’t think they’re far off from filming so we’ll know for sure soon, but I’m not watching another season after a POC was forced off the show due to endless racism that went unchecked by the network. Any reboot with Kameron will be unacceptable to me.

Don't blame her one bit.

 

She may have sensed where the wind was blowing with regards to RHOD's renewal (or lack thereof). But mostly this is about the Westcotts trying to ruin her professional reputation. So she chose her very fine medical career over the low-rated sh!t-show. Her hospital may even have told her 'It's Bravo or us' and she made the right choice. Her parents will no doubt be thrilled. 

 

And obviously the lawsuit hanging over her husband's family. Nobody wants TV scrutiny on that one.

 

I think this might be the death-knell for RHOD and for that, I am sad. Oh, what could have been. There were some great times/seasons in there!

    • Which could make sense , except that we have seen Mariah function for years w/o any real residue pain from her upbringing. Josh decides to randomly make it a thing, when a good writer might foreshadow that for months. It's not like he's just arrived at the show. He's been there for years . Everything seems to be thought out only a few weeks ahead. It's like Phyllis all freaky from being kidnapped when she has done a million other things that didn't seem to bother her at all.
    • Unrelated, sort of, but he looks absolutely nothing like Amanda Setton or Dominic Zamprogna so it's kind of hilarious they decided to make Gio their kid.  It's very clear this was not the original origin story for Gio when they cast him. He is a very handsome guy though. 
    • I tend to agree, although going back to OLTL, Frank has so often cast guys who are meant to be attractive yet come across as cold and dead, I'm surprised he managed to get one who has a bit of a pulse.
    • For all I care, the boy can parade around in a g-string.  It won't make this show suck any less.
    • AMC was about a decade later so things may have changed by then, although maybe they never approached her anyway. She joined Santa Barbara in 1985, when they didn't seem interested in bringing back Hope. SB ended in late 1992, so JFP could have asked her back, but I doubt she did. For as much as JFP clearly had some use for Rick Hearst given that she hired him on GH and kept him around as often as she could, I don't think she ever used Alan-Michael well. I can't see Elvera as Delia, but she could have worked well as Faith - she had a glimpse of a strong personality alongside warmth, which only one Faith ever managed (Catherine Hicks).
    • IIRC, FC reruns aired for awhile on Lifetime, way before the network became the Women in Peril Channel, lol.
    • PAM!! YES!!! You have jogged my memory. She worked at Cedars. She's mentioned in a write-up of Tim's history in the show. It says she was a nurse, but I seem to remember she was a secretary at Cedars, working for either Ed or Sarah. (It's almost 50 years ago, so I definitely could be wrong). I'm certain she was an unwed mother. I recall reading an interview with the actress, Maureen Silliman (I looked it up, that's her correct name, LOL). She started on the show just before the Dobsons started writing it. She was shocked to get a script that said her character had been pregnant since she hit town. I remember a scene where she told Tim she was going to leave SF for a better job for her daughter's sake (really, I think she was upset he was serious about Rita). I don't remember them getting married and leaving town, but according to "Who's Who in Springfield" that's how the characters were written out. Mattson did All My Children for several years, so she might have been persuadable. Here's an interesting factoid I recently learned on these message boards: Elvera Roussel was in the running to play Delia on RH when the show first hit the air. How wild is it that Mattson played Delia for a while? (Though from what I saw of her performance, she was miscast). It's hard to know if Roussel would have been a good Delia. You'd think she would have been better suited to playing Faith Coleridge, but who knows? She didn't get to show a whole lot of range as Hope.
    • If I were to do an EON reboot, I think I would start at the beginning, with Mike Karr leaving the police force in order to begin a new career as an attorney, and dealing with his wife, Sara's, crooked family.
    • I don't know if it was the writing or performance but I felt like we finally got to see the real Ted. Especially the way he talked to Martin when confronted, felt like a completely different person. He felt darker and like a total liar who was mad he got caught. I expected him to be remorseful and want to apologize to each and every family member who he came into contact with but he seemed like he didn't care. It completely changed how I view him and it makes me wonder if this is the direction they're going to take Ted in with the recast.
