Trust. As I said back then, I'll say it again: We get Karen Huger's schtick. We are along for the ride with her. We know it's not delusion; it's just an illusion. A fun ride for the cameras. 

 

Excellent rundown. +1 

 

 

Agreed. Love her or hate her, she's what makes RHONY what it is, and it's been chugging along for 13 solid years. With things so uncertain regarding this current cast, I would sooner bet the network put this gossip out there on purpose to gauge viewer reaction.  Leah is tanking fast and hard while Eboni hasn't landed well overall. Honestly, the only safe bet these days is Sonja Tremont Morgan, bless her heart.

I don't know how unclear I could have been considering how many times I repeat it. 
But that's exactly what I was talking about with GDW; seems there is a bit of a blind spot among fans regarding Karen.
Anyhow don't assume that because someone is not a stan, that it means they are a hater. I like these ladies and this is probably the only franchise where I like them all.

THIS.

It wasn't clear.  That would be why I said it.

 

And don't assume that someone is calling you a hater. 

 

I like that they all bring something.  But as you catch up above, it bears repeating...no blind spot here. La Dame is seen clearly. Simply don't get triggered by it. 

 

Again, I did mention it before...

My irritation at the first comments after yesterday's episodes were generic and while I am glad some have her number, perusing this thread makes pretty clear not everyone does.
The imbalance between the bile directed at Gizelle and Candiace vs the others is pretty obvious so, yes, it feels like some things need to be said just to temper the conversation from time to time.
If it is not relevant to you, great! You can add your two cents which are generally a lot more detailed and thoughtful than mine and ignore my pithy attempt to defend the entire cast against overeager fans.
Anyway back to the program itself...

I can't speak for anyone else, but my unapologetic love for the Grande Dame (since season 1 when everybody else hated her) is due to her blend of wit, heart, and delusion that I find absolutely irresistible.

 

Karen Huger has made me rediscover that loving feeling that I lost when Sheree from RHOA left and the rivalry between her and Gizelle fulfill the promise that RHOA dropped the ball on by failing to find a worthy rival for Kenya, post-Phaedra.

So Bershawn was brought on to get things moving on this show.

She clearly has watched the show as A. She was expecting the drunk ladies from last season and now half the cast doesn’t drink. B. She knows of Sonja’s previous drunken clown behavior because until tonight Sonja has been sober around her.

Try as they might, and they tried this episode to give us fun and drama (and even “touching moments” with the women rallying around a grieving Eboni and defending Sonja), but this RHONY cast has zero chemistry.

Bershan definitely came to get it poppin, but it felt as forced as Leah’s bullsh!t (and it’s rich that Leah had so much to say about Bershan’s behavior—two peas in a pod). 

For me, NY is the most rewatchable franchise, but I’ve begun skipping reruns this season.

Bershan was hilarious tonight! She was giving me Dorinda teas tonight. That was just a hot mess in every way and I loved it! She’s right! They have been boring. She wanted to have fun and while she didn’t accomplish that, she definitely brought things to life. 
 

Next week looks insane! Sonja, Ramona and Bershan are my MVPs this season.

    • Ann Williams was the first Maggie Powers on The Doctors but left to have a baby. Maggie was successfully recast so Ann picked up the role of Eunice (Jo's sister on Search for Tomorrow) and played that role for 10 years before being killed of in 1976. That led to her role of Margo on EON.
    • Looking at those totals it seems most contract actors are on a 1 or 2 week average guarantee. I assume contracts are still operating on 13 week cycles so you would have to know the particular actors contract starting date to work out their guarantee. The question remains as to what actors listed as contract are actually recurring? Bryton ?
    • Yep, that scene was at the conclusion of the Derek Thurston vs George Packard storyline, when Kay decided neither of them should run Chancellor.  By the time she put Victor in charge, Victor had been on the show for months & months with his Rolls Royce, his ranch, and Newman Enterprises.  SONY released some Y&R "trivia cards" in the late 1980s, and one of the questions was "who brought Victor Newman to Genoa City?" The answer on the back of the card is "Kay Thurston, to run Chancellor Industries", and it's a wrong answer lol.    
    • I think someone said it did exist, but I can't remember.
    • The bit with the scarf reminds me of the fabled stuffed animal scene with Rick and Phillip. (That wasn't debunked, was it?)
    • Ohh, interesting. I instantly gravitated towards her in that episode. Of course I'm already hooked and want to know why she was trying to poison that older lady, but then how did the older lady know to switch the mugs so Susan drank her own poison...  but I have too many timelines I'm watching right now haha.  Oh, Bolger is definitely hot. I didn't realize he was on GL haha. I knew him from OLTL and other primetime stuff.
    • This is a effin shame. Eff Trump and eff the bastards that enable him.
    • I 100% agree but I think this is due to how the show is structured. It's a one family show which means there are no people in her age range that could be used as friends or contemporaries of her. The show definitely needs a second main family. I am glad someone finally said this. Especially now that the cast is gelling in their roles, he stands out like a sore thumb. No energy, no chemistry with anybody. He is just there.  I thought that was odd as well! The previous scene would've worked better as a tag for the credits.
    • That's the one and only Carrie Nye (Mrs. Dick Cavett) as Susan Piper, a deadly realtor. I don't want to spoil a lot if you ever want to see those episodes. She returns as another character in 2003. I think Grant has aged well and he always did a good job at being ripped without going too far, but he was never entirely my cup of tea either. I did think John Bolger was hot.
    • Totally agree. KKL looks great! It makes the Widge groveling so bizarre. Brooke needs to leave FC and with $B's/Liam's funding launch a rival fashion house with Hope, Rick, Katie and a secret designer. The best scenario is that Rick has been absent because he's been with very much alive C2, who is revealed on the runway as the secret designer. It'll never happen because B&B is comfortable just focusing on FC and the Forresters Marones v. Logans. But it'd been so much more interesting if the Spencers/Logans united.
