EXACTLY!!! Part of what I regret about RHOP post-Season 5 reunion, was that Andy did not let Monique and La Dame finish Gizelle off right then and there or did not deal with the aftermath well. It allowed Gizelle to gather herself and spin that fake narrative again of Pastor Holy Whore and her STILL together after Monique's binder crossed her face with true tea.

 

Same. I admit as I was playing catch-up with RHOM this season, I was worried there for a minute that it was about to be toxic a la Season 3 reuinion again with Ana's reappearance and Alexia/Marysol's latest attempt to ice Nicole out, but they did a nice pivot from mid-season. And even that gave us new dynamics among the group. But they kept giving new dynamics within the group...something not a lot of HW shows can do now without adding in new people. Why change it? They...are...GIVING. Even Ms. Villain Larsa. lol.

 

And rightfully so!!!! The first chairs given to the only women really working this season!!!! 

HAHAHAHAHHAHAHA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! REALLY, ANDY!!!! Exhibit A: HIS NEW YEAR EVE APPEARANCE WHERE HE WAS EXTENSIVELY DRUNK.

 

There is too much out there on Andy if they want to go there.  So all I have to say is...

RHOM:

FYI, part II of the reunion comes on tonight (February 29th) at 8 PM/EST. Support the ladies. 

Moving on, the reunion was "FIYAH" as Adriana would say. The ladies ditched the pleasantries and went straight for the jugulars. This reunion, while it seemed fast, gave so much in an hour. I would give this reunion a 10/10. Fighting nonstop. My neck got whiplash from the numerous head turns I made while watching the women ping pong digs at each other. 

Marcus and Larsa are both trash. Marcus stating that none of the women on the cast wouldn't even be able to wash dishes in the Jordan house was gross. I have no idea why a Black man (and I can say this as I am one myself) would ever utter those words. That was just gross. And he said it in front of Andy with such ease. Jesus. Larsa saying the women were "dry" because they didn't buy her stupid comment about her having sex 5 times a day just shows how childish she is. Larsa, no one believes that drivel. Who, outside of sex workers, have time to have sex 5 times a day? But then again, Larsa does have an OnlyFans...

Adriana and her antics might annoy many but they crack me up; however, this needs to be the last reunion she whips out letter. And while I am on Adriana's side most times, Alexia gathered her in their segment. I have to give it up to Alexia when she clocks in. But when Alexia does clock in, majority of the time she can go on a diatribe of nothing. She needs to pull back going forward too. 

Marysol needs to really let go of this hatred for Adriana. Not liking her is fine, but Marysol did say some vile things about Adriana this season. 

Kiki emerged as one of the stars of part one. She pegged Larsa easily. 

Guerdy, while I love her, was too turned up; she was too eager to fight with Larsa and Lisa. I need to her dial it back as she'll begin to look desperate. 

Julia and Nicole perfectly served as the truth tellers. I loved watching them holding Alexia and Larsa, two of the biggest hypocrites, feet to the fire. 

Overall, this was the superior reunion last night. They really need to just get rid of the "friend" role and make all these women full-time. This cast is perfection... even with Larsa. 

RHOBH:

The reunion was OK. 

Kyle's obsession with LVP is weird. She brings that poor lady up at the most awkward times. Kyle, she is gone. She's been gone since season 9. This is season 13. Move on. 

While on Kyle, I knew her and Dorit would fall out. They only bonded b/c they were upset that LVP was the star and they were reduced to being her flunkies at best. Kyle trying to manipulate and make up with Dorit before the reunion was some Bobby Fischer type stuff (OG BH fans know that reference). This is why I am loving that LVP or Rinna aren't on the show at the moment. Now the fans that have been "snowed" are starting to see who the true manipulator is... Kyle! If Kyle returns, I see next season being Dorit v. Kyle. And while Kyle thinks she's can trample over Dorit, I see Dorit decimating Kyle in the end. I think Dorit knows where all the bodies lie. 

Annemarie aka 8.5--get rid of her. I don't like this woman at all. As Crystal stated, she is a proven liar. The only reason when wrapped up fighting with Sutton is because the medical field came down on her azz and told her she was wrong. There isn't any politics in the matter. You lied about your role, you claimed Sutton had an eating disorder and tried to peg it on Crystal, and you gave a misdiagnosis when it came to Sutton's situation. I also didn't appreciate her trying to come to Dorit's defense and scold Garcelle. Like Garcelle said, you are grown woman, defend yourself (against Sutton). Dorit has a history of being micro and macro-aggressive. 

Dorit... it is painfully obvious that she is willfully ignorant as HELL. Last night displayed that when she tried to double down on the nasty "child bride" comment. Garcelle was vindicated and Crystal rightfully nailed Dorit to the cross. 

Crystal was the star of the reunion last night. She slayed Dorit and Annemarie with ease. She earned her role on future seasons. 

The only person that needs to go on this cast is Annemarie. I know Andy is eager to keep her, but she needs to go. Now is the time for BH to woo LVP back. Especially, when we have Dorit v. Kyle bubbling to the surface. Nothing would make me, @Cat, and @DaytimeFan happy than to see LVP smirking in the background while the two tear each other apart while Erika scrambles to pick a side.

It's safe to say Mary is back at least. LOL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

BH

 

I actually sat down for it. And I have to give credit where credit is due. Erika (yes, I said her name) was giving me life. Her reaction shots to the madness was EVERYTHING. It was giving me Kenya at the RHOA S9 reunion. 

 

Speaking of LVP, are we all doing VANDERPUMP VILLA?

 

RHOM

 

Don't hate me, @NothinButAttitude, but I can't tonight. I have to work.

 But I agree with the chaos. That hour went by fast.

Part 1 of RHOBH's reunion was pretty fast-paced considering how lowkey the season was overall!

I read Kyle's text to Dorit. It is very manipulative and plays on her emotions -- fear of losing her friendship with Kyle, the Kemsleys' marriage woes, etc. There is no doubt in my mind that Kyle worked every angle of that message in advance, ready to send on exactly the day before Reunion. It also confirms what I've long suspected -- that Kyle slots her BFFs in and out of her life, leveraging her friendship in return for something, and playing on their sympathy when she's down and 'needs them.' "She preys on the weak" -- remember that line, @NothinButAttitude

Yet another LVP reference from Kyle! She is obsessed.

Crystal was phenomenal (not a phrase I write very often on here), decimating Dorit and Annemarie with ease. Dorit tried it with a lot of the women this season. She's played the microaggression card for years but, next to Rinna, Kyle, Erika, it would pass under the radar. This season, it is now under the spotlight.

As for Flopmarie, Andy seems inexplicably charmed by this obnoxious professional gaslighter. The rehearsed "I. Won't. Be. Part. Of you. Sys. Tem. Of Lies" line made me cringe. What on earth does that mean? 'System of lies' like Sutton's supposed anorexia? If her performance yesterday was any indication of her bedside manner, I worry for the patients who must have their concerns routinely brushed aside by Big Mouth.

Dorit vs Kyle needs an LVP check-mate, even if she's just a FOH. But I fear we will see Rinna back before Pinky.

    • I think they’re desperately trying to cover his awful tattoos. But anyway them being unable to style short kings properly has been a major pet peeve of mine for a while now.  I honestly don’t understand what some people expect from actors to even begin considering them for recognition. Let’s be real—awards mostly mean that an actor is respected by their peers and has some level of cultural relevance. Actual judgment on the acting itself? That’s often secondary—highly subjective and shaped by the times. I completely agree on both points. If you’re an actor or a dancer you shouldn’t get any tattoos (sorry not sorry). Tomas’ tattoos are ugly too. And regarding the couples- you’re completely right. These writers are unable to write romance.   Further comments: - Kat cannot be this dumb to keep tampering with evidence over and over again. And I’m officially not a fan of the actress—every time she’s in a scene with Leslie, she doesn’t seem intimidated at all. She plays it like comic relief, which is just too much, especially when paired with Leslie’s histrionics and over-the-top antics. Leslie is older, dangerous, and has literally been portrayed as homicidal—Kat should be at least a little scared. • I also didn’t like Kat playing damsel in distress with the hotel manager. It gave off the same weird energy as Dani with the cop. I would’ve much preferred the version Paul Raven suggested, with her sneaking in through housekeeping. • And yes, Dani again accused Hayley of faking the pregnancy—this time even specifying she might be using a pillow under her shirt. (No fake miscarriage being mentioned) I stand by my take: this is ridiculous writing. No one in the real world—except us, the chronically online soap watchers—would even think of such a conspiracy theory. Haley is no Beyoncé. • What in the world was Chelsea wearing in her hair the other day? And this whole thing with Madison is beyond cringe. Chelsea’s coming off as needy and toxic—basically like every other Dupree. • I’m glad the casino storyline is moving forward, but it’s still boring as hell. Honestly, I’d be so here for a plot twist where Vanessa and Doug take Joey out. • The direction and editing lately have been rough. Abrupt cuts, weird pacing… something just feels off overall. There’s a strange uneasiness to how it’s all coming together. • And finally: Tomas is too much of a saint. Where are the messy sluts when you need them? (Vanessa doesn’t count.)
    • I was watching some August 1987 episodes and they brought back so many memories. I had some thoughts: Lisa and Jamie were so dull. Lisa was such a nothing character. It boggles my mind that so much story was centered around her in such a short amount of time. Joanna Going is a talented actress, but the material was just not there.  It was so good to see Wallingford and Mitch again. I know there was talk about Felicia a while back, but these episodes reminded me how integral Felicia was for the show.  Sally Spencer was done so dirty. She is turning in superb performances in an icky storyline. I wish she had stuck around longer. She has chemistry with everyone. The McKinnons should have lasted longer. Spencer had some strong stuff with Stephen Schnetzer and Mary Alexander. AW waster such a talented actress by getting rid of her. Justice for Cheryl too. I also missed Ed Fry when he left. Sandra Ferguson was a star from the moment she came on. She was charismatic and just popped. She had immediate chemistry with RKK and blended in well with Wyndham and Watson. I'd forgotten about the teenage Matthew.  I have no memory of Peggy Lazarus. She must not have lasted long. Was the original plan for John that he was going to turn out to be the twins' real father?      
    • If the new and improved copies that @rsclassicfanforever has uploaded can be manually moved into the "by month, by year" folders, that would be awesome. I personally don't think it's necessary to keep the older versions (which either have Dutch subtitles hard coded on them, or are lesser in picture quality). That's a lot of valuable drive space that could be cleared. Just my view but can appreciate others may feel differently. The structure had been by month by year previously, so I think it would be easier to conform to that, where so much prior work to get it to that format has already been done. Hopefully you can "drag and drop" so the new copies are in the right month/year? Re Clips, I never look at them now we pretty much have the episodes in full. Appreciate others may use, however. Thanks for all your hard work here @BoldRestless!
    • Oh yes defintely, Josh Griffith repeats and repeats the same storylines.
    • Isnt’t this storyline similar to the Cameron Kirsten situation though? Sharon thought she killed him. He ended up being alive and Sharon was being tormented with thinking she was seeing his face everywhere and that’s how we got that iconic scene with her and Nikki in the sewers.   I understand in Mariah’s case this is different circumstances but it does seem like a play on that whole thing. Maybe I’m wrong. I just wish if they were going to make any character follow in Sharon’s foot steps it would be Faith. Mariah wasn’t even raised by her, and her personality is different. I would expect her to take a different path. I understand I could be completely jumping ahead because the storyline hasn’t even played out yet but we’ll see. 
    • Thanks again @Paul Raven Monica was completely without redeeming qualities at this point. I always found the whole Monica = Carly narrative regressive, as I don't think shows comparing characters so heavily is ever a great idea, but she's actually worse than Carly was. Was it the Pollocks who had Leslie have a miscarriage?  Giving her a child, especially by rape, was not a good idea, but a part of me wishes they'd committed to it just to see what story it might have had in later years.
    • @janea4old Your detailed explanation and delving into the psychology and motivations is no doubt the opposite of what we will see onscreeen. As @ranger1rg stated we will get a few scenes and some sketchy explanations. Like the adoption of Aria, most of it will take place off screen.
    • I'm suddenly fearful that DAYS is going to pull a Flowers-for-Algernon stunt and Bo's progress will be reversed.  While @te. is stuck on Abe's tiny bedroom, I can't stop thinking of the size of Bo's huge hospital room.
    • Okay, why are Paulina and Abe sleeping like that?!  I'd take a screen grab if I wasn't lazy, but come on.
