From what I heard...I felt like her days were numbered when she mentioned in interviews that her scenes had been edited down...including her aftermath talk with Kyle about their back and forth at last year's reunion which could have been a nice set-up for those two to feud and thus give Crystal something to work with. 

 

lol. I have heard some shade about them so I'm looking forward to finally being able to sit down and watch that season. 

 

What news did you want?

Crystal should not have been fired. Alongside Sutton, she carried the show this past season. She earned her diamond for the upcoming season. If anyone should've been fired, it should've been Dorit. But we know they big set up is Dorit v. Kyle. 

I hope they bring LVP back to sit back and watch them tear each other apart.

The reunion (for me) was painful but much-needed. It gave me a clearer picture of who should stay and go.

Gizelle and Ashley's gaslighting re: the Deborah situation was nauseating, and I'm so glad that Kiearna (who should at all costs be given a flute next season) held both of them to account.

The fact that Andy gave Gizelle (who didn't even witness the altercation!) the floor was even more nauseating. As if Gizelle has any moral high-ground upon which to pontificate! Gizelle has become the S4-Jill-Zarin of RHOP -- she is completely toxic for the show. Nothing will change for the better if she remains. She will stop at nothing to destroy people's lives. She dominates the show in an unhealthy way which saps all meaningful opposition and momentum. And she is completely protected by production (such as it was) and Andy. She is not the way forward for RHOP, she only holds it back.

Ashley is another toxic presence with a moral emptiness belied by her pretty face and charming delivery. She sicced Deborah onto Candiace with the intent to do physical harm. The less said about osu, the better.

As for Andy, his weird facial expressions and superficial pronouncements during Mia & Gordon's excellent segment further exemplified why he has no business running this reunion. I give Andy a lot of leeway as I find him entertaining, but he is hopelessly compromised by his faves and inability to comprehend the issues facing this cast.

I, too, will miss Candiace's quick wit and wordsmithery, but I admire her for prioritising her family. Only Karen is left with the quick-wittedness to out-smart the GEBs. But she will be entering next season on the back foot, which her enemies will be keen to exploit.

I agree. Crystal was finally coming into her own. Kyle's hands are all over this firing. Which is foolish, because Crystal was actually Teddi's last chance (along with Crystal's 13 other ex-BFFs) to return to the show. A bone-headed move by Bravo which chose the reheated leftovers of Dorit vs Kyle (already played out in S8, S10, S12 and S13 when we last watched that SL).

Maybe she can take Crystal's spot? She gave more in one episode than 8.5 did in a season

    • If the show was interested in tying in one of the three prime time specials in the 90s, the smarter choice probably would have been Night Sins from 1993. Night Sins was the ushering in of Titan Publishing, the first mentions of Kate Roberts coming in to run it, plus it had involved Jack retyping a manuscript he had found in the new house he and Jen moved into... which ended up being a thinly veiled story written by Kate about her dalliance with Bill Horton that produced Lucas. However, I doubt the writers were even thinking about the prime time episodes when deciding to name the manuscript One Stormy Night.  I also don't see Stephanie being the one that would be writing it.  The current actress playing Stephanie seems to play a more passive version of Stephanie vs the previous takes by Shayna and Shelley..imho. Javi is cute... much too good for Leo.  He can do so much better.
    • I might've gone after someone like Jed Allan, or even Donald May. Though they're very different.
    • Same.   Looking forward to seeing what I missed later.
    • Question for all: Who would have made a good Mike recast after Stewart departed?
    • I think they did. Again, it is not an either/or proposition for most of the audience so far. Most don't feel the need to stan one or reject the other.
    • KKL on Bold Live on May 1st. Details here  
    • I do wonder if the show realized that fans would take to Silk Press and Eva as much as we have?    To me, I think the core four was mostly used to get eyes on the show since all four were familiar performers in both daytime and primetime.   Of the four, I think Nicole is used most effectively where it doesn't look as though she's hogging airtime.  She works as a lead and as a talk to. Anita has been the most under utilized of the four, but I do have a feeling that might be changing once the Ted/Nicole/Eva/Silk Press Story goes back to support status. Of the four, I think Dani has been over-used.. but I do still see potential for the character.  I know some people think she's the modern day Erica Kane, but I don't see that.  Erica was a Have Not that became a Have while Dani is a Have by birth and has done nothing to have earned being a Have. Good cliffhanger.
    • LOL now this sells it for me!  I can't wait to watch later tonight!
    • I think this is a great observation.  I do wonder if some of that was down to how Nixon had started writing story and plot outlines.  By this point (maybe even by the mid 70s) many have discussed how she *didn't* write detailed story outlines anymore--the focus more was on a mood or theme and ABC simply allowed that because they trusted her at this stage (in her "memoir" I think even Megan McTavish talks about Nixon's writing in this way in the 90s and she basically seems to admit that it worked for Nixon.  But if Nixon wasn't in charge of the daily execution of these ideas...)
    • Ooooooo that was a soap reveal!!!   And we even got a brief Kat vs Eva fight.   OOoooo cliffhanger!!! Oh, yeah, I remember they had a cover story, but I find it interesting that it was just mentioned again today. I wonder could it be foreshadowing another twist coming up.
