Carole and Aviva i would prefer to Kelly. As for Zarin, she is her own worst enemy.she spent Covid trying to pitch a tent at Mar-a-lago and has never recovered. Im just glad she didnt get the whole show cancelled because I really want to watch it. Better off without her.

I think they really want this to be the OGs. The core group from the first 3 seasons and the Heather, Aviva and Carole were trio was part of the first reboot that marked a shift in the show. Whats ironic though is that Dorinda feels like an OG despite not joining till season 7. She fits in with the group more than any other addition post season 3

I'd rather see Carole do an Ultimate Girls Trip.

Not Bob hanging with Rihanna the last few days!!!

WOW.

RHOP

I never really talked about the finale. Well about Karen. I wanted to wait until I watched it a second time since I was pretty distracted and felt a bit bored by the second half honestly.

I thought that it started off well enough. I didn't feel Karen was putting it on for the cameras. She felt...real. And traumatized. But still a good trooper to be back on camera. And the reunion with the family was a good moment.

And then Andy showed up. So moment of truth? How was Karen going to be? Would she take the NY LuAnn approach or the OC Shannon approach. Mind you, I'm still waaaay behind on OC, but I heard some things.

I didn't like that she was trying to be deluded Karen at first. Le sigh. But as Andy kept pressing...it's been a minute with him being clocked in...I felt it was more complex. I originally didn't like that she tried to tie it back to her being sexual assaulted at first...that was the moment that I really grew to love Karen as a person. But...in hindsight...I could see that. But I didn't like how she kept pushing the narrative that it was the pills. Granted one should not mix pills and alcohol so she had a point. However, people have been talking about Karen and her drinking for years. So it can't just be that now that the whole truth is out there for anyone to find. I was disappointed that she did not own up to that a little bit more. Even if it was just for show...like LuAnn did. This was Karen's first chance to repair her image...and she was fumbling getting an A+. She has a loooong way to go, and I was already disappointed. B -

But star power she is! RHOP's ratings (against the GRAMMY at that) was a season high. People wanted to see what Karen would say. A long-time coming. And we all knew that. Karen played her cards there right. Andy played his cards right, but showing Karen what was said at last year's reunion. It's a given it's going to be Wendy vs Karen.

So...can't wait.
