Porsha Williams-Stewart she married to a retired NFL player and is granddaughter to a famous civil rights leader in ATL.

Kim is only going to be recurring this season bc she was pregnant again and barely filmed with any of the ladies. I have to admit it is a little sad seeing Nene the last orginal standing even tho Sheree and Kim were never my favorite people.

Keshia Knight Pulliam was rumored to have filmed some stuff but will prob end up on the cutting room floor or some throwaway scenes as a friend of Nene.

They've been 3 for quite some time now. They just have too many franchises now and the seasons go on for nearly 20 episodes so they to put them on concurrently. Its odd though that BH and ATL are premiering at the same exact time as usually they would do a better job at staggering them. I think they could cut the seasons back to about 12 episodes max to alleviate some of this as well

I think the long seasons are fine on the better shows. With Beverly Hills it absolutely worked last season and I think New York and Atlanta can sustain long seasons as well. New Jersey is the only show I think struggled from an extended season. Even in season one I felt there was so much filler getting to the table flip. That show is all about one big event and everything leading up to that. THeir personal lives are not interesting.

Going back to Miami, I still don't fully understand the way they launched it. In the old days they'd always launch a new housewives series after a reunion episode of the previous series. I understand none of the shows were ending, but why not put a special New Jersey episode prior to Miami? As it stands, you have two popular franchises doing very well in the ratings and ALSO leading up to their finales. There is no need to watch Miami if you aren't already a fan. I figured once New Jersey ended maybe viewers could sample it, but now the focus will be on Beverly Hills and Atlanta. Once again, it runs the risk of being lost in the shuffle.

There's no ATL trailer? sad.png

I highly doubt they're going to let Miami fail after giving it a reboot. If ratings don't improve they will have an episode on a "special night". I think it will be the RHONJ reunion, the reunions are always the highest rated episodes of the season for NJ. I doubt they'll move it behind one of them permanently. If it can't stand on its own it wouldn't be worth keeping for them.

I read, sorry dont have the link, that as someone posted above Kim is basically a friend of because she was prego and didnt film a lot this season by request. She did get paid her full salery tho and is likely to film another mini-spinoff to air between this season and next, but she didnt partake in any of the promo pics/shoots/etc for this season and is expected to return full time next season. I have to say, i think that is really respectable on both ends. Bravo for agreeing to it, and her for putting her family first. Girl has come a LONG way!

LMAO! Andy Cohen is sick. On WWHL he randomly asks Marysol, "Did you have a facelift?" And she seemed so shocked and said she was only 45 which is too young for a facelift. Then Ana said "wrong cast member" and Marysol said Lea got a facelift lol. It was hilarious. And Alexia being the peacemaker went on about how beautiful Lea's face was.

They let loose. It was a fun appearance.

I read that too, though I don't remember confirmation that she'd be back full-time for season 6. I'm guessing this will be Kim and NeNe's last season, as their 5 season contract will be up (or am I imagining that 5-season-contract thing?) and they're both ready to move on.

I would think that her salary would be reduced this season for that very reason that she didn't film much and didn't participate as much. If I were the other ladies, I would protest to that, especially since she's the 2nd highest paid lady there.

What a fun day for Bravo/RH fans! I can't wait for the premieres in November!

Very interesting - if you go to Bravo's website, there are 9 Beverly Hills ladies listed in the bio section, which includes Camille and a woman named Marisa Zanuck. She even has a professional photo and everything. They aren't calling them 'Friends of the Housewives' - they are included in the Housewives bios with all the other ladies. Same with Kim Zolciak on Atlanta's website. Interesting!

Also, I can't wait to see Atlanta's promo! I'm hoping now that they have 2 new cast members, they will re-do their opener... nothing about Season 4's intro was different - taglines/photos/etc - nothing.

Btw, I meant to ask - are the Miami ladies holding mojitos in their opener now? Didn't they have champagne flutes during Season 1? First series/first time to change what the ladies are holding in the openers.

I wonder what Bravo will air on Sunday nights in October to fill the void between NJ and Atlanta... surely they won't air Reunions and NJ Lost Footage for 5 weeks.

    • 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.
