Yeah, I thought it was going to come across as aggressive/belligerent, but so far it just seems like Luann drunkenly singing and the audience laughing at her. I feel like she was doing an impromptu audition for that Kinky Boots producer who was out with her? And she's obsessed with cabaret, and wants more than anything for this to be her career. And she's a big partier, for lack of a better word, and, I believe, surrounds herself with only yes men. In any case, this might be a good time for RHONY to start filming again.

That Page Six article @DaytimeFan posted has a denial/rewrite of the incident straight out of Luann's Pirate Booty cover-up! 

Jeana in a sky top I would take!

I'm actually OK with a more lowkey look for OC. I'm sick of OTT Halloween glam in lieu of actual story, Thoigh the most shocking to me is a seemingly bra-lless Heather!

You are right about Shannon. She always looks uncomfortably crammed. Jen overcompensated in her wannabe-Jen-Shah outfit and just looks overdressed with no place to go. And Noella looks... somewhat unhealthy.

 

Did any of you guys hear about Bella Hadid's Vogue interview, and how her childhood was so traumatic, she doesn't remember much of it? Very honest interview by Bella, talking about some of the anxiety issues she struggles with. But Yolanda, who is not oftlen mentioned directly by name, doesn't come out looking good at all.

Oh, Tiki and the mistress are a bust. Not even their trashy 'love story' can disguise the fact that they are deeply, deeply dull. And OF COURSE Melissa would bring them onto the show. Wouldn't want anyone overshadowing her & Joe, would we?

I am beyond over the Real Househusbands of New Jersey. With the exception of Frank, who actually viewed things in a reasonable, balanced way, I thought they treated Bill reprehensibly. Frank was the only one to hear Bill out and say he thinks they should leave the drama to the ladies. Joe Gorga is an instigator in much of this. Two seasons ago, Bill was getting lots of fan compliments at Reunion; I don't think Joe liked that one bit, and he started poking at Bill a lot more. He was happy as a clam when Bill walked out -- and then he invited Louie so he could poke at him. I hope Louie realises that Joe will turn on him in an instant and will be using him for SL fodder.

As much as I am disliking some of the adult cast, I have a lot of time for the kids. I really felt for Antonia's struggle at a new school after an injury, struggling with depression. The Gorgas prioritised the younger boys' sports schedule over their daughter finishing her last two years of high school where she felt secure and nurtured.

Also, Gia can join the RHONJ cast anytime she wants. I love huh and the other Giudice girls. Frankie is the sweetest with his grandmother. Dolores's mom is lovely, and I was feeling for D this week.

While I'm not sure Louie isn't scamming Tre by Speaking her Love Language, he was right in saying Teresa was bashful. I hadn't realised after all these years until RHUGT how socially shy Teresa is. She is a different person around her dawters and Louie.

Marge's VT statements about Teresa being guilliable are not 100% wrong, but the tone was mean and malicious. That VT will bite her in the ass at Reunion. She's also still trying to make her Mini-Me happen, which... no.

I want to say RHUGT was filmed after NJ. For some reason, I feel like RHUGT was filmed after her engagement party when not even her long-time friend Dolores was invited. She also talked on RHUGT about feeling like she had no friends in the NJ cast.

See? I want to say differently than Cat and say before. Because Teresa was just starting to date Louie before the end of last season. And then ALL STARS filmed. And then her and Melissa had to get back to NJ to film. But I might be wrong. I know part of the reason no one was filming from POTOMAC was because they were filming at the time.

 

Well, I can see why she would like to do that as a career. Lu does have enough personality for a good piano bar for sure. 

 

I saw it mentioned online re: Bella. Yeah, Yolanda was getting such backlash. 

 

Exactly!!! And Teresa might be guillable, but she is smart enough to know when someone is coming for her. That was why I loved Teresa taking pot shots at Marge at last season's reunion. And she herself brought it up to Marge TO HER FACE. What kind of friend is she to be saying that about her? Chef's kiss to Teresa shading her heck out of Marge's man then, too. Their falling out (and spoiler alert...they are STILL on the outs) has been a LONG time coming. And the fact Marge is STILL being mean? Yeah, the reunion will be on one. Again.

I commend Luann for quickly responding to that news story with an acknowledgement, an apology and a promise to do better.

I don't know if the rehab is just until she can get back to drinking in a more manageable way, as Luann really enjoys a social, partying lifestyle. I always waver when it comes to Luann as to whether she is an alcoholic with a serious problem, or just someone who likes to booze it up from time to time. Maybe a bit of both? In the absence of RHONY, the drinking (and perhaps other things, so the rumors say) may have been building for some time. On the other hand, not everyone needs to be a teetotalling yoga hermit in life.

Now I'm starting to question my initial guess! I'm sure we can find out online exactly when both series were filmed.

Lol still thinking about the Tiktok the RHUGT did on the beach, where Ramona and Teresa attempted (and failed) to dance in formation, and Kenya elbowed Luann out of the way on the path to fabulousness.

Yeah, I think the gloves will be off at reunion between Tre and Marge.

Initially I wasn't feeling the spinoff, as I feel Karen works best in a RH setting interacting with the other women.

That was before I heard (A) that this was only a 2-parter -- and not, say, the usual longer length for a spin-off, and (B ) the budget-Succession music!

It seems to be about family legacy and race. One of Potomac's best ever episodes is when they visited the former plantation and unravelled some of Gizelle's painful history. Karen's show is giving some of that vibe.

OK, so principal photography of Housewives in Da Island Baby 

Please register in order to view this content

 began in April 2021, according to Wiki. 

RHONJ seems to have been filmed over the summer, hence the Jersey Shore footage and the "cruel, cruel summer" song they had in the trailer.

So it looks like UGT was filmed before NJ.

 

And yes @alwaysAMC I thought Dolores and Tre were way closer. They grew up in Paterson together and knew each other's moms. In past seasons, we had Dolores's mom asking how Teresa was doing like she knew her. I just looked up their birthdays, and Dolores's is 28 December, 1970 and Teresa's 18 May 1972. So they may not have been in the same grade but maybe a grade or two apart.

It is sad that they are no longer close. I feel like Teresa has withdrawn from the group (with good reason, perhaps) since the early days of the show, and especially now that she has Louie. She doesn't open up easily to others. 

Also, Teresa hates Caroline Manzo and loves Dina. By contrast, Dolores & Caroline are close, while she and Dina hate each other. So I imagine that impacted Dolores-Teresa's relationship. Dolores & Marge hitting it off prob didn't help. 

If Dina ever decided to return, I'd be down for it.

  Interesting!

 

Anyone watching Kandi and the Gang?  I'm liking it so far!  You can tell they tried to shoot this series before Covid and then it got scrapped and now they're trying to bring everyone back in to work and be part of the show again.

    • They didn't need to have some slutty gay dude as their representation. Just a 'normal' guy getting involved with another guy or two (or three). Just like the straight characters. Thinking about it, they missed the boat by not having a few other single charcters at the beginning. Maybe Naomi or Ashley could be shown meeting Derek/Jacob and  we could follow their romance. Too many characters were coupled up at the start. As a tattoo hater I was surprised to see Tomas so inked. Don't find it attractive or sexy. I'm surprised an actor would do that as it's definitely a statement and may not be appropriate for some roles. Suppose they can cover if necessary. I didn't buy Kat being all girly and then paying off Darius to get into Eva's room. Way too cliche. She should have just come along when the housekeeping was leaving and breezed in saying it was her room. And her smug looks in the hotel room and 'Now I've got you!!' talks to herself at Orphey Gene's...no.

    • I thought it got stale before Jocks death lol. His death picked things back up for me.
    • 1976 Pt 5 Tony is summoned to the reading of the will in the Llanfair library,as he’s a principal in the will. He tells Joe there’s not a chance of coming to terms with Dorian, as he is sure she brought about Victor’s death by torturing him emotionally when he was her helpless prisoner after his stroke. Ironically, Chapin hand delivers to Viki a letter her father wrote before his stroke, praising Dorian and asking Viki to befriend and support his widow when he was no longer there. Viki feels a responsibility to her father’s wishes and vows to try with Dorian. Victor’s will leaves the expected amounts to members of his family and staff, with the lion’s share of his stock and property going to Dorian. Victor’s will explains that his son Tony expressed the desire that he not be “bought from the grave,” and, in keeping with his son’s wishes, the only bequest to him is the knowledge of his father’s love and respect. Tony is deeply moved. Dorian’s first attempt to use her new power is the recommendation of Peter as head of the Merideth Lord Wolek hospital wing, claiming that naming Larry would be virtual nepotism. Peter, who has devoted considerable time and effort to helping Jenny get over Tim’s death with gentle, affectionate support, is happy at this suggestion, but Jenny points out Dorian is merely using him to hurt Larry. Viki disregards Dorian’s ingenuous assurances that she’s not trying to wield her new power but is merely putting Peter up for consideration for a future opportunity, if not this one, and tells her she won’t be able to fulfill her father’s desire that they be friends unless Dorian stops interfering. Larry, fully understanding Dorian’s personal motives, warns her he’s going to fight for the appointment no matter what. Realizing that she has made a tactical error, Dorian announces that she won’t even attend the board meeting but will give her proxy to Jim. She admits to Matt McAllister, still her confidant, that this was humiliating, but it was a necessary protective tactic. Dorian manages to win her next round at Joe’s office when, after he praises her decision to yield on appointing Peter, she expresses concern for Viki “at a time like this.” Joe, of course, jumps on her words, and Dorian, pretending great distress at having mentioned something she shouldn’t have, is “forced” to explain that she knew about the congenital heart condition Megan had and that any child of Joe’s is likely to inherit it. She overheard the doctors discussing it at the time of the accident, she continues, and naturally assumed that Joe already knew.  Joe arranges a meeting at home with Viki and asks her how she could live a lie like this; how she could go through their lives as if everything were fine while every moment was a lie. He is further upset when, in trying to explain that it was out of her love for him that she kept the truth from him, she mentions that Jim and Larry also know but Cathy still hasn’t been told. Viki tells Joe that Dorian deliberately told him this way to hurt their marriage, and she is very upset when he starts toward the door, pleading that they have always talked things out in the past. Joe coolly points out that she didn’t do that when she learned about Megan and continues out the door.  A tearful Viki is shaken and when Joe later returns, having spent several hours in a bar drinking only soft drinks,she breaks down, crying that she was convinced he’d left her. Joe assures her they can get through this despite everything, because their relation is based on love and mutual respect. 
    • If you think about it, DALLAS and DYNASTY grew stale right about the same time, even if the ratings were slow to reflect that.  FC and KL, on the other hand, tried to stay fresh, but KL was way more successful at it, I think, than FC.  (That [!@#$%^&*] with The Thirteen does not hold up well, lol).
