To be fair, I fail to see how Jen harassing the wife of a man she was involved with four years ago has anything to do with the fraud that she committed against the elderly.  Not being a good wife is hardly a federal offense, I doubt it will have much effect on her sentencing.

SLC: 

I know we have mixed opinions on the board regarding Heather Gay, but she was my breakout favorite in the first season (with Meredith 2nd, Whitney 3rd), but even I can't co-sign this runaround about her black eye. Let's just call a spade a spade: Jen hit you, but physical violence is mostly a no-no in Housewives land and will get you demoted to friend-of for one season fired, not to mention her ongoing legal drama. 

Also, I still like Meredith for the most part, but her dancing around what is and isn't considered "gossip" is hypocritical. So gossiping about her family is wrong (and will result in her melting down like Ramona Singer or Rosie the Robot malfunctioning on The Jetsons), but discussion about Lisa's businesses which are public record (for those who wish to nose around) is okay.  Okay... 

LOL at the countdown of every time Meredith said "I'm not mad" to the poorly introduced friends-of cast. So next week is the season finale. Good. I'm ready for New Jersey.

I'll summarize. 

Jen cheated with a man four years ago, his wife found out and sent photos to Coach Shah, Jen then drove to another state where the wife lived and knocked on her door at 2:30 in the morning, the next day the wife got a restraining order against Jen which expired after six months.  Now, four years later, that woman has gone to the press to try to get her 15 minutes of fame, ignoring the shame it would bring to her family which was the purpose of the restraining order in the first place. 

TMZ "uncovered" the restraining order, which is another word for doing an internet search of the court documents.  However, as noted earlier, adultery is not a criminal offense, there is plenty of evidence of Jen's poor character, and I doubt that it will have any impact on her sentence which is federally mandated.

Sounds like a tawdry mess all around. Naturally, an affair won't hold weight in a court of law. However, Jen's actual crimes are pretty horrible and substantial (the victim statements will be pretty impactful). The first part of your summarization is another instance of her using threatening, intimidatory and/or violent behaviour, which I guess the prosecution wants to establish as a pattern.

Good. I am so glad Rinna is out. Now bring Vanderpump back. I think with Rinna being out, it'll be a HUGE selling point to get her to return. 

 

RHOM:

Miami delivers yet again. 

 

Guerdy v. Alexia was hilarious. Two drama queens trying to outdo one another. I think the crux of it all is that Guerdy and Alexia are remarkably similar. I don't think their issues are that deep even though I expect them to clash 1 or 2 more times this season. 

Kiki v. Julia/Adriana came out of left field for me. I didn't like that Julia disinvited Kiki from the party but still allowed Larsa to show up. That was simply weird to me. 

I figured Martina would not care about Julia kissing someone else. I've always gotten vibes that Martina is VERY secure about her marriage with Julia and knows how to reign Julia in if necessary. Larsa kind of took egg on her face for that one. 

I am ready for Larsa v. Nicole 2.0 next week along with the further demise of Lenny. By the time this show airs, Lisa is going to have much dirt on Lenny that she'll be able to wipe his fortune clean.

    • You’d think he would’ve learned after the way Sprina took off.  I hope we get a proper Emma/Gio/Trina/Kai quad, as friends, romantic rivals, etc. In the few scenes that the four of them have had together, I felt like there was a natural chemistry between all of them, similar to the way that Cam/Spencer/Trina/Joss was, in the beginning.  And, it would be a lot better than all this stuff with Kai’s surgery. 
    • Hooray we made the exact same critique to Londonscribe!!!!!
    • I don't think they had any idea who he was this time last year. I think they were keeping their options very open. Same with totally dropping the Trina romance that was spoiled for him in the mags once FV clearly took a shine to him. Frank's priorities are bright and blazing in one color. I do think Gio and Emma seem to have worked out given that she is very dry and sarcastic and he is like a hot golden retriever, but I'd still play the field or explore quads with both with very different people - Emma with a scheming young man (of color), Gio with possibly Trina or someone else, or even a boy. Then maybe put them back together, who knows. But of course none that will happen.

    • He definitely got lost in the shuffle last year. First, they were implying that he was Drew’s son, then he was nothing more than just Violet’s bff

      And then they changed him to being Dante and Brook Lynn’s son, which was clunky at first but I’m enjoying the storyline now. 
    • GM is adorable, charming and fun onscreen despite months of nothing to do until recently, and has a bodacious bod. I'm not cosigning the show or this story - I haven't watched a full episode in over a month - but I think we're all taking the small victories in 2025 at this point. I'm open to testing this theory!
    • I think Jason might've posted some numbers for the syndication a while ago and the numbers for Falcon Crest was horrible. Like 1.5 rating or something, which was terrible.    ETA: it was actually Paul Raven:   New to syndication 60 min Fall Guy 67 markets 3.1/8 Falcon Crest 110 markets 1.1/5 To get into the top 40, you needed a 4.6/9 rating for reference - and Falcon Crest managed to get into a lot of markets to begin with. In the fall of 1985 Dynasty, Dallas and Knots were syndicated (show / rating / share / coverage % / markets): Dallas 3.4 10 51.7 92 Dynasty 3.4 10 48.7 47  Knots Landing 3.3 10 12.5 20  So, Knots as an example trippled Falcon Crest's rating with 20 markets - I'm sure those were major ones but it just goes to show you how much Falcon Crest bombed in syndication. 
    • It's not bad but the stories move too slow. It's the same problem when Dan O'Connor was CO-HW with Van Etten, they have a million stories and they all drag on endlessly with no resolution. I'd argue the majority of the stories airing now are good but you get sick of waiting months for something to happen.
