Cheap, I've given up on Jill's version of the Bethenny incident ever being truthful. The whole season literally was Bethenny trying to make up with Jill and then finally as any human would, gave up and moved on with her life. The woman is delusional and a constant "victim"

Oh Jill Zarin... you come back from Australia and say something like "I'm a new woman and will remove myself from all the catty, petty drama, and gossip"... and then immediately sits down with LuAnn, Kelly, and Sonja and gossip and be catty!!! LOL

Sonja is so evil this season, and I love it. She's soooo horrible to Cindy!

Still waiting for the OC to heat up a bit... just not feeling this season too much.

Jill really is so deluded. Love watching it, would hate to have to deal with it.

I don't see Sonja as evil. I see Sonja as being haughty, over the top, forceful, funny and no bullsh*t. It also helps that I cannot stomach Cindy, adored watching Sonja put her in her place. There IS a pecking order, Sonja's the only one willing to admit it.

The OC...I can understand why you're not feeling it as much and that it's lacking heat. I would say that's because it's the most "real" in that these women don't have the money and are really playing "Keeping Up With The Jones'" (aside from Vicki but she has her own bag of BS to deal with). To me, The OC is really what upper middle class America is, it's a lot of artifice and a lot of petty drama with a bit of common sense thrown in. They need to focus on how these women's lives are going to hell in a hand basket more, I LOVED watching Lynn's life go Ka Boom last year. They also need to bring back Jeana and Laurie.

I think the problem with OC this year is the lack of group interactions. I think this is the first season where the women really are completely divided to the point where they don't want to film together and I honestly think the show is suffering for it.

I want to feel sorry for Vicki but I can't. We've watched six seasons of her continuously belittle Donn. Who knows, maybe off camera he's an !@#$%^&*], at least he's smart enough not to show it to America. He comes off as this guy that just desperately wants to make his wife happy and it's impossible. I remember reading somewhere after the divorce that Donn wasn't trying to chase her and make her stay and Vicki almost seemed surprised..I like Vicki more than Jill but she's got similar delusions.

NYC

I'm just going to say this every week until the show's over, I HATE CINDY SHE IS POINTLESS GO THE [!@#$%^&*] AWAY! 7 Housewives is too much. This one isn't EVEN a housewife, why bring someone new that isn't even interested in dating or being married. The only reason I can tolerate her presence of my screen is to watch Sonja smack the bitch down...And the women totally know there's a pecking order. The originals on every city of the show especially OC aren't afraid to boast about it.

Oh God --- if only we could have a Season 2 of DC:

From RadarOnline:

"Alleged White House crasher Michaele Salahi plans on crashing the clubs next, by releasing her first song, Bump It – and RadarOnline.com has an exclusive sneak peek for you!

According to Michaele's rep, she was inspired by talk show queen Oprah Winfrey to record the single when she claims Oprah told her, “Wow, you have an amazing voice!” while they were together backstage during the inauguration of President Barack Obama.

“I am so excited with my first single! It's an amazing dance song, and it highlights the party animal in everyone!” Michaele said.

“I titled the song ‘Bump It' because I love dancing and bumping it on the dance floor! I got so caught up with the rhythm, that my music just feels like a magical prism.”

Interested in the lyrics?

Here are some of Michaele's deep thoughts: “Like I'm so high and like, you're so not. The speakers on blast, let the techno rock. Everybody in the club make your way to the front, rhythm is the bass that will make the crowd jump.”

Michaele's song will be available on iTunes until Thursday, May 11."

THIS WOMAN IS SO DELUSIONAL! LOL

I hated how Tamra tried to paint Fernanda out to be some psycho lesbian. Honestly her personality this season is horrible and her attitude flat out stinks.

Overall these women are WAY too bitchy and catty for me. Its not entertaining to watch them all be so ugly and nasty. None of them even seem happy with themselves and their lives.

I just finished watching Peggy's dinner party episode...WHOA!

OC has been my favorite franchise, but this season everyone is so BITTER, resentful and generally full of hate it's uncomfortable to watch.

Each HW show needs their bit of drama, but it also needs HUMOR to lighten things up. That's partly why Atlanta is so successful, because they can make fun of each other without completely hating them and wishing they were dead.

Now that I think about it, the entire HW franchise became trashy drama once Tamra joined. It became complete in S4 during the Naked Wasted episodes, and that, plus the debut of the New Jersey franchise pushed the show to where it is now.

As much as I like Tamra, because I like mean girls, she really was the turning point of the series as a whole. I'd venture as much as to say she hijacked the series. Without a Tamra, I don't think we would've ended up with a Gretchen and Alexis, and by extension Peggy. I refuse to understand why they've convinced themselves all OC housewives must be blonde, when a lot of the fan favorites from yesteryear were the brunettes....

*Off my soapbox*

I was curious about Fernanda.... was she suppose to be a full-time housewife and TPTB changed their mind? The reason I'm asking is because I thought her story seems interesting... plus her being a non-blonde helped too LOL I liked that Lynn came back.. she seemed interesting but is Jeana back for a visit or did I miss it?

I'm not sure with Fernanda. Maybe she wasn't going to be a housewife, but provided them with interesting footage so they included her in promo campaigns, but maybe they felt there wasn't enough footage to justify putting her in the credits? Not sure. It seems if she was an original housewife that they cut they wouldn't have still included her in promo photos.

And yes Jeana is back for a visit. Don't you remember the explosive catfight with Tamra in all the promos? That's coming! I believe there are two or three episodes left now for OC.

I think Fernanda was an original housewife but cut during the last few minutes of editing. She was in promo shots (which are taken before and during editing). But about a week before the premiere, she was removed from the main website as a housewife (in the main group shot). I think they realized she didn't have enough (interesting) material to be a full housewife, or be on every episode with (interesting) commentary. Also, Tamra might have sabotaged her by not going to her Independence Party (which was setup as a potential big party/storyline for her, but then no housewife showed up). She didn't go to Peggy's dinner party, so she was useless and had nothing to say there. Looks like she goes to San Antonio this week with some girls, but I just don't think she showed up or met with any other housewives during filming (except Tamra) to really be involved in the drama. I think they realized during final editing that she just didn't provide enough and she was demoted.

I also didnt like Tamra having the nerve to get mad at Fernanda for revealing their kiss to another person. Um hello you are on a reality show! Tamra herself has talked about the kiss on camera. Its not like she was keeping this thing a secret

Another housewife set to divorce. Can you guess who before clicking the link? http://www.dlisted.com/2011/05/11/another-real-housewives-marriage-eats-dust

Weird thing about Taylor...I like her husband a lot more than I like her.

He seems reserved, and generally quiet. It's Taylor that's hellbent on living the BH socialite lifestyle, and Russell seems out of place with that crowd.

Re: Fernanda: I don't care either way about her, she's uninteresting.

I miss Lynne. :ph34r:

    • Honestly who's to say Leslie even birthed Eva, I mean she's a liar, I wouldn't believe a word she says about Eva being Ted's(or hers)
    •   1. 11/1/83 cast/set list:  

      Please register in order to view this content

          The "11/2/83" video you posted of Ruth Buzzi's scenes includes Roman and Hope in them, meaning the video you posted is actually 11/1/83, since Roman and Hope aren't in 11/2/83.   2. The video you posted of "11/2/83" has scenes with Roman and Hope. As you can see from my cast/set list, Roman and Hope are not in the 11/2/83 episode (see above note):   4573...11/2/83: Cast: Mickey, Julie, Doug, Maggie, Neil, Don, Marie, Alex, Liz, Andre as Tony, Gwen, Chris, Eugene, Sandy, Letitia, Charlene, Mrs. Whiting, Wanda/Guard, Dave, Delia, Saleslady # 1, Saleslady # 2, Figure in Dark, Raven/animal, Cats/animals, Birds/animals.   2.  11/3/83 :My video collection starts with 11/4/83. so I don't have the 11/1/83 or 11/3/83 video, but in addition to the cast/set list for 11/3/83, here is also the parking clearance call sheet for that day, showing Ruth was not only in the cast/set list but did work that day:     They even had hired the animal trainer and all the animals for the day, so It's sort of a certainty that her scenes were not cut that day, or it would have been a big waste of the budget. 3. As for 11/7/83, I just fast-forwarded through that whole episode myself. Letitia is in it from start to finish. It's her big final episode where she is killed. She starts the episode saying "Eugene, are you there?" In the next act, Marlena shows up and meets Letitia's lion. Later in the episode, Letitia is killed by "Eugene" (the Salem Slasher in a Eugene mask).   So, as we can see from your own post, the 11/2/83 date you have listed on that video is incorrect, since Hope and Roman are in that video but not in the 11/2/83 episode.It seems the dates you have on all your early November 1983 episodes are incorrect.   When you post videos and suggest that my data is incorrect, do you not first compare who is in the scenes and see if that matches who is in the episode? You didn't do that with the "11/2/83" episode, which based on Roman and Hope being in it means that is actually 11/1/83. Best to do something like that first before suggesting my data and research is incorrect.
    • Within the Dupree family, I predict Vernon/Anita will be conflicted about what to do about Bill and his role in the whole Ted/Silk Press Sheila situation... especially since Bill knows where the particular bone about Martin is buried. Dani, Chelsea, and Naomi's reactions to what Bill possibly did isn't hard to guess.. but Hayley's reactions will be interesting to hear.  Especially given her recent pregnancy scare.. she might not be so much on Bill's side, or she'll totally surprise us and be totally on Bill's side.   Either way, I think Martin's secret will be the main focus in May sweeps.. with the fall out of the Eva secret playing out in the background... while the Joey/Vanessa/Doug thing continues to boil/develop.
    • Hotel was The Love Boat on land but a little soapier. I will forever maintain that Hotel was a time slot hit. I don't believe that 1983/84 Hotel was a better show than Knots Landing.

    • The timing is strange, though. How far in advance would they normally be on location? The Achille Lauro hijacking was on October 7, 1985. Nancy had arrived in Egypt in the storyline by October 18. But the character of Hawk, Chris' Native American friend from Arizona, had already appeared onscreen by September and brought a letter telling Chris to be in Egypt by October 25th.  Why did they already have the link to Arizona before the reason to cancel the shoot in Egypt?  The dust and the jar it came in were from Egypt though. Nancy bought it there and sent it to Mac as a gift before she came back to the states and followed Chris to Arizona.
    • Actually that is not what happened. Nor is the timing right for it to have been. We learned from a WOST interview with Pete Lemay  in 2006, which can be found on YT, that it was Fred Silverman's idea to do the 90 minute show. I don't know how much you know about him but he had these amazing successes as head of daytime at both ABC & at CBS. Then he came to NBC where basically everything he touched turned NOT TO GOLD but to shite. Some of the most expensive shows ever produced up to that time were huge flops. Although even he, like a broken clock, could be right on occasion. However, as we know, he was not right about the 90 minute show. As a matter of fact, afterward,  NBC programmers, who worked FOR him, were asked why they did it & they were quoted as saying it was because they couldn't think of anything else to try. It was a stupid idea from a man who had reached the point where he was throwing anything at the wall to see if it would stick.

    • I stopped watching Another World in 1990. Simply, lost interest in the show.  I had watched the show from 1973 to 1990. The 90 minute show started the decline of AW.  NBC panicked with expanding AW due to the GH hoopla. As mentioned above, 1982 was a trainwreck for AW.  The introduction of the Shea family, the movie storyline involving Jamie, and Steve Frame favoring Rachel over Alice. The writers went into that direction due to the forgettable performance of Linda Borgeson.
