Bravo's The Real Housewives of....

[Taoboi]

Definitely. I don't think I've seen anyone...outside of a bad second season...lose all of the gained goodwill they got the season before so quickly. Where's my gal who was in on the joke of being a constant liar? Cuz this...TRASH.

 

I agree. I do feel her second reunion chair was a wakeup call. And someone did have a Come To Jesus moment with her BTS after. But that's just me.

 

And...Totally played her cards all wrong. And I don't know how she did that, but ugh. It is what it is. I never thought I would see the day where I would be on Gizelle's side, but I'm actively cheering her on now to take Mia down.

I thought it was another low key episode. What stood out about it for me was that EVERYBODY had a little something going on. Nothing major, but like I mentioned before, I love that all the housewives have their little stories going on and they are continuing across episodes versus just fading in and out or vanishing all together. HW shows after all are about these ladies and their lives, and if they are not going to show their lives, then why are they here?

 

And then...there's the incoming Gizelle vs Mia feud that I am sure is about to start. This has been the most that Gizelle has appeared transparent since the first couple of seasons methinks and she's coming across sooooooo well this year. Meanwhile, Messy Mia is slowly, but surely crossing a line. I feel like they are evenly matched so I can't wait to see where it goes. Cuz Gizelle let her know at the end of the episode...she might not be reacting right now, but she WILL be reacting.

 Trust that. 

 

LA DAME. One thing I love about HW shows is when we see the HW's kids. Moreso when we watched them grow up on the show. So it was great to see Ravyn again. And La Dame went to support Ashley. And her advice once Ashley (actually) gave some tea on how things are going with Michael and her divorce was wise. There IS so much out there on Michael Darby that if the sticking point IS Ashley or the cast talking about him when there's so much on him out there in the public eye...well...HOW MUCH will it take to be quiet? Smart dame. I also loved her and Gizelle rallying around Stacey in regards to her about-to-be-ex-husband. And don't think I didn't notice her giving Mia grace when the other ladies were coming for her.

 

ASHLEY. Oooooh what angle is she working now? Cuz I was not expecting her to even be anything close to factual about her meeting with Michael. So much so she broke the 4th Wall AND spilled that Michael want no mentions of him ever again on the show. As if Ashley can control what the others say? I hope she takes La Dame's advice and use that fact to stick it to Michael cuz her HW train ain't going to last the way she's been acting this season. I expect better from someone with the same birthday as moi.

 

WENDY. Someone else who gave Mia grace this episode. Better than me. lol. And she probably won't give her much grace after what Mia said to Gizelle about her parenting. Meanwhile, I liked we got a little step in the plot of mending fences between her family and Eddie's family.

 

STACEY. Stacey continued to dazzle as she talked about her forthcoming divorce issues. It was wild to me to see her talking about it this episode at the same time Ashley was actually being (a little) open about her own. I still think Stacey will have hers done before Ashley, mind you.  But her taking in what La Dame and Gizelle said. Her talking about it right down to her not knowing what a bill is. Or that she did not know about bills being in HER name. Just wild. 

 

KEIARNA. Interesting that she mentioned that she was in a lawsuit. And that lawsuit...her fight last season with Sesame Street. Hmmm...could that be why she's a housewife this season? Because outside of her feud with Mia, she was showing her life, but I wasn't feeling it this time around. Well outside of her man clearly not wanting her to film...kinda like Bob and her hubby over on SLC. 

 

MIA. I'm about to call her a bitca. lol. How dare she curse Jacqueline out when Jacqueline (like the Grande Dame and Wendy and even Jassi) was defending her at the table as Gizelle was coming for her. And then she clowned Jacqueline later on at the clothing store cuz Jacq HAS dressed soooo much better than the clothes that Mia was picking out for her. And if Mia was not doing that, she was again trying to spin that terrible narrative about G...with JACQUELINE'S help. I just did not get her this episode at all. I did get that she knew she was feeling the heat from Gizelle though. But what did she expect? You want that throne, she best be ready to be in the hot seat. And her response...to spill tea on something Gizelle told her off screen...WRONG ROAD, BOO, WRONG ROAD!!! If anyone can carry a grudge, it IS Gizelle. And one thing you don't do...come for the kids. Wrong move.

 

GIZELLE. I was shocked at how much Gizelle was just showing her life this episode. Being with her kids and seeing how college was going. Trying to help Stacey work her way through her divorce. Side-eyeing Mia. Such a redemption season for her.

 

Again...a good episode for tuning in to how EVERYONE is doing.

Anyone else see Dumb and Dumber on WWHL? Andy was morrtified and was wondering who's idea was it to book these two together. Lowkey, I think they could make for an interesting 5-6 episode Simple Life spinoff. They were very much giving off Paris and Nicole

It's amazing how Kathy hated how Kyle aired the family's dirty laundry by outing Kim's alcoholism 14 years ago, yet has no problem parading about like a clown this season. 

[Taoboi]

Whhhhhattt???

[NothinButAttitude]

Kathy (in my opinion) is doing that to get the stench off of herself from the Paris show on Peacock. While I didn't watch it in its entirety, Kathy didn't come off as great to those who could read between the lines. Kathy isn't the quirky, loveable idiot she likes portraying herself as. I think she might be more calculating than we think...

[Cheap21]

She definitely is. She doees things that make absolutely no sense unless she has an undiagnosed personality disorder. I peeped that this season in episode 1 when she started taking her hair out the minute she got the party. She did it for attention and to go viral but no normal person would do that. She could have started in hte limo when she was alone but she wanted it on camera and for everyone to be looking at her as "kooky Kathy". She's VERY perforrmative

I figured that I would post on last week's episode before I dive into tonight's episode...which sounds like a whole mess. lol. 

 

I thought it was another good episode. And while I love me sum TROOP BEVELEY HILLS, it really just seem like an attempt to keep Heather relevant since she has nothing going on. Nothing. So much for last season's catchphrase. And of course it all went side-ways quickly. Mary vs Meredith. Angie K vs Bob/Meredith. Mary vs Lisa...and Lisa actually holding her own. It had some good moments. Just none of them involving Heather.

And then...Mary. Her scenes with her son where we are finally told what's going on. Oh, I teared up so badly. And the lead-up to the talk this episode was also good. It made Meredith's attempt to play victim look that much worse. I was at least happy to see that while Mary was not about to put out her business until she was good and ready, she did look tense throughout the episode and did get a moment to explain to Meredith's face that it was a misunderstanding. So Meredith harping on the SLC Dinner Party from Hell is just her being dramatic.

 

LISA. It's funny watching all this ladies (except Mary) fighting over things that Lisa is barely involved in. I mean...really? I was shocked to see that she was holding her own against Mary in the Battle of 'Who Wore It Better.' And of course, she just had to come for Little Girl or make any fight about her fighting with Little Girl. I think her only genuine moment was her making up with Angie K. I was happy they both sat down alone (outside of their kids) and just talked without Heather nowhere in sight to twist words. 

 

HEATHER. GIRL, BYE. And take that Mormon shticks that is 3 seasons old with you.

 

ANGIE K. She continues to be giving. If the first half of the season was her vs Lisa from an organic reason to have a feud, it was nice to see her and Lisa come to an understanding. And just in time for her to continue her rivalry with Meredith. And shocked to see her get into it with Bob. And as always, she stayed having Mary's back, too.

 

BOB. I know some people are side-eying her for bringing up what Little Girl and Angie K said a few episodes back, but I felt she worded it in a way that it was only her holding them accountable as well. They had told her to beware Lisa. Nothing wrong with being upfront. And she didn't spin it at all. Unlike some folks *cough*Heather*cough* If anything, I thought it was interesting that her hubby said in front of the whole group he did a background check on her before they got serious/married. Given how he felt about Bob being around this group, why put that out there for them...especially Heather?

 

MEREDITH. I see we are getting to the part of the season where Meredith gets activated. Usually it's the start of the season and she vanishes. So it was a nice change of pace. Her vs Angie K and getting oh so offended by the hearing aid comment when she was joking about it herself. Then her misunderstanding with Mary. How can she be so intelligent enough to figure out that something must be going on with Mary, but so stupid that she thought Mary was just hating on her. She rents!!! lol. And where I really fell off with her this episode was hearing what happened from Mary's lips, she CHOSE to still play victim? NO. If her friendship with Mary dies, it will be her own fault, not Mary's.

 

LITTLE GIRL. Tussled a little bit with Lisa, but didn't do much.

 

MARY. Still having one of the best seasons ever of a housewife. She's giving everything. The good, the bad, and the shady. Even with the real drama going on with her son, she was still making appearances...late or not. And she was giving shade, too, cuz I hollered when she said that Meredith rents. And she was giving it to Meredith. She was matching wits (i know she's a dingbat) with Lisa. And then that last scene...I loved how vulnerable and gentle she was with her son and no judgment. I just...my heart...

SLUT HAIR! Britani is a soap opera character come to life and Im convinced she is on this show playing her childhood soap fantasies.   Like she was plucked out of Days of Our Lives from the 90s.  cant believe she mad the entire event about her witht he theatrics and fighting over her hair. LMAO! Britanni is a top tier friend and really should have been a housewife. Ive never seen anything so ridiculous on these shows but that was hilarious. She's a fave

LOL..she knows whats up when its time to perform

 

Bronwyn....she has the trip to redeem herself but I think Im gonna hop off her bus. This feud with Angie is stupid and I dont get it.

 

Meili....anyone notice Todd dismiss her. LOL..she was only trying to get much needed airtime

 

Mary is a good friend for showing up. I woudlnt have. She made me tear up when she was sorta opening up to Angie and then made me laugh when she peaking through the windows. I liked that she congratulated Meredith while still holding her accountable for how she hurt her feelings and apologizing herself. She is doing everything right this season.

 

Meredith. Had no idea she had another son. She needs to move on with this feud with Angie. It makes her look bad and its unjustified

REUNION FILMING TODAY!!!

 

AND SEATING CHART...

 

[Cheap21]

LOL..they didnt even bother to invite Meili

[DaytimeFan]

Bronwyn lost me a while ago but this episode sealed it. She was getting along with Britani and then moments later threw her under the bus and blew everything up. She will end this season with exactly 0 allies. She is playing this show like it's a game of Survivor. 

Britani amuses me and I think you're so on point about her living out her 90s DAYS fantasies. It helps she looks like Krista Allen. 

On the Watch What Crappens podcast, whenever they mention Meili, they do the Charlie Brown 'adults talking' sound...like she really isn't there.
