Anyone watch these shows? I absolutely love them. Ive watched NJ and Atlanta and now they are airing NY. Couldnt get into the Orange County. Too many blondes and fake boobs. Anyone else watching the current season of NY. Lots of drama. My favorites are Bethany and Kelly. I also like Jill although she bugs me. Alex does nothing for me and I cant stand Ramona and LuAnn

@Taoboi Eboni whetting our appetite for the next few episodes 

 

And ooooof! Juicy RHOBH clip! Garcelle holds Rinna's feet to the fire! "I'm not going to disagree." I'd be stunned if Rinna had any friends left in LA.

 

 

Eboni's statement...it sounds so good. 

 

Get her Garcelle! "I don't disagree." - that is some elegant truth bombing right there.

 

Rinna knows she looked terrible last season and while I think she's fully onboard with selling her soul and selling out her friendships for a buck and some extra minutes of fame I have to wonder if her QVC business, her real bread and butter, hasn't suffered...right now a quick perusal of her QVC line shows that everything is 50% discounted...

@FrenchBug82 It almost felt like Garcelle was prodding Rinna to admit on camera that she had basically sold out her personal relationships for a TV show. There was a second where Rinna raised her voice and the talking doll almost came alive.

 

I sometimes wonder if Rinna would have turned on Eileen had she stayed on the show. Probably. 

 

@Taoboi the fact that she's singing Feelin' Jovani in that gif as she dances is what gets me! I didn't know Ramona was a fan of Luann's discography.

 

Come to the dark side @Faulkner !💅

 

 

That is such a hard one because Rinna and Eileen were so loyal to each other and had 30 years of history...but I can see the betrayal coming if Rinna felt it was necessary. "OWN IT, Eileen!" she'd bellow as Eileen would wipe away tears on the patio of her eclectically decorated Malibu home...

Ugh. Don’t make me have to watch this damn show…

 

I'm 100% on board with BH and I quietly resent myself for it. 

Denise and Rinna were friends for years...so I have no doubt she would have gone for Eileen.  Eileen was smart to leave when she did.

 

Let's see if Garcelle will avoid the season 2 curse.  Probably will since Erika's skeletons are exposed. 

Rinna trying to backtrack on completely ruining her friendship with Denise for the show. 🙄🙄

These women are SO unlikable.  Watching just gets my blood pressure up…

Woooow! Garcelle is the first woman on this show to make Rinna nervous! She *knows* what she did was dark and wrong and I love that Garcelle held her feet to the fire. Like she said, how does Garcelle know she wouldn’t turn on her like that? 

Garcelle is about to give us everything we want! I can feel it!

Thank God for Garcelle! I hope she keeps her foot firmly planted on Rinna's neck. 

 

And these women better come to learn that Rinna is NO ONES friend. If she could turn on LVP and Denise, both who were longstanding friends prior to BH, she'll do it to anyone.

I think we are underestimating that factor. Eileen *was* smart. She got what she wanted out of the show, whatever that was, but she knew not to overstay her welcome.

I don't know... I think Eileen would could back quickly if Bravo wanted to bring her back full-time.

 

To me, Eileen really on served her purpose on s5. Her other 2 seasons were duds.

Yeah I thought she was great season 5 and then downhill from There.

I am not arguing this. Actually that's part of what I am saying: she knew that if she was boring, the only way for producers to make her interesting would be to a petty fight with others and as we were discussing, some housewives would be more than happy to indulge.

So she was smart to get out when she did instead of trying to squeeze that fruit much longer.

And I doubt she'd be back. She seems to really want to do nothing right now.

RHONY

 

I find it funny that we hear Leah call Heather a Karen in the trailer, but isn’t that how SHE is acting? She’s judging everybody and trying so hard to have a problem with somebody that she’s the one coming off like a Debbie Downer. The look on Eboni’s face as she ruined the winery trip going in on Ramona was everything! The reason nobody is backing you up is because nobody cares! Chill out and have a good time! 
 

Other than Leah killing the mood I did enjoy this episode. I enjoy Ramona and Eboni getting along and Sonja was amazing! I don’t know what is going on with her, but she’s giving me life this season.

Interesting tidbit about her QVC dusters being discounted. In the past year or so, Rinna has subtly indicated some discontent with Bravo, and TBH I wasn't sure why. After all, they got rid of her arch-enemy LVP, and she & Erika have the rest of the cast (with the possible exception of Garcelle) running scared. Honestly surprised she didn't join All-Stars to cement her place in the RH canon. This QVC thing might explain why... BH isn't bringing in the dividends Rinna anticipated. (Certainly I haven't seen her crotchlings' 'fashion line' anywhere).

 

And @Faulkner I resent myself for it as well! It feels like I'm supporting Evil by watching, lol (OK, that may be a bit much, but anyway). I hope Garcelle and Sutton won't put up with the spidery machinations, and that the jig may be up for some of these women.

 

Andy once told Rinna she was "very Marco Rubio in her talking points" and it's still an apt description. Like those kind of politicians, Rinna doesn't seem to believe in anything she says, and is consequently shameless in the stuff she puts out there. Honestly, Rinna and Erika have morphed into their TV personas: terrifying, glossy holograms, parroting a lot of empty words.

S6 Eileen became a tits-on-an-ant nag. I actually liked her more S7 -- except for the way she backed Rinna in all things. It slipped under the radar at the time, but the way Rinna treated a vulnerable Eden (drawing her in, winding her up, using her as a pawn, then gaslighting and abandoning her) was beyond the pale. I would have expected someone as empathetic as Eileen to not be OK with this, but instead she brutally shut down Eden's ability to verbalise any of this at reunion. Don't get me started on the hall-pass she gave Rinna to harass Kim for years.

 

I would have been OK with Eileen staying on the show during that dud of a S8, though.

Last nights RHONY was amazing. Eboni is a great addition... and Sonja needs to stop drinking, again!

I can’t stand Leah. She’s really messing up my enjoyment of the show. And now this campaign against Heather.

New York:

 

So in the trailer for the season, Leah called Heather a Karen...but has she looked in the mirror?

It would be one thing if Leah embraced being the villainess...but I think she believes she's the one everyone is rooting for.  I think someone had one too many shots of delusion.

 

Eboni seems cool..but being put out because her ex fiance put his kids first leaves me to think she's a tad selfish...perfect for the show lol.  

 

Ramona is so out there...but I can't help laughing at her.  Especially her misunderstanding of 'cancel culture'.

 

I'm not sure I can hold on for the season...Leah is just unbearable....she lacks Bethenny's ability to joke and lacks Heather's nurturing vibe.
