RHONY

Brynn at the rare book store in this episode, playing chess in a previous episode, and talking about her grandma with her brother... I wish she would show more of this to everyone instead of trying to do a 2023 variation of Samantha Jones.  And I think in regards to her previous fiances, I have a feeling it's a 'runaway bride' situation where she's pretending to like what the guy likes instead of actually being herself with them.   Seeing her at the book store, it made me think 'I would like hanging out with this girl'.

Jessel is so Alex McCord... it isn't funny.  And I admit I kind of wish we had seen the scene of her with her twins during the music session.  The producers could have had Jessel saying how wonderful and educational this musical experience would for her boys.. and then cut to scenes of the boys running around away from the group with Jessel chasing them.

Erin and hubby... there is something going on in that marriage.. and this week further shows that.  I don't know exactly what is going on.. but something is off with them.

Sai and Jessel I guess aren't going to be bonding this week.

Sai really thought she did something at her lunch with Jessel. She acted like she'd exposed her or something, but she's the one who looked like an a$$. Why is she asking everyone for "their story" and then passing judgment on whether it's good enough? I find her dead-eyed and unlikeable. She wants to come off as the snarky 'fan-fave' (a Bethenny, if you will) but it's flopping big-time. 

Jessel needs to stop trying to win Sai over with her family history, though. Jessel is lowkey trolling her with that.

Sai and Erin + husbands dissing Jessel's marriage was also not a good look. So if a woman doesn't put out, the husband has a right to stray? I'm not sure what's going on with Parvit & Jessel's marriage, it does seem staged in parts, but at least on camera they seem to be vibing, a lot more than the dumb lugs Sai and Erin married. (People in glass houses shouldn't throw stones, just saying).

And you better believe Sai is going to use that 'swingers in 10 years' time' nugget against Erin sooner or later.

@Soaplovers As a book lover myself, i loved the rare bookstore sequence with Brynn. I think she is legit a collector. I'd rather see this more thoughtful side to her also.

So, amid a few Tweets (!!) saying this was going to be a borefest without Lisa Rinna... I  found the trailer to be unexpectedly juicy!

There is no SL other than Kyle's marriage on the show -- and Kyle probably wouldn't want it any other way. She finally has a starring role without any siblings or English roses stealing her thunder. 

Shocked that we not only see her daughters' reaction to the split, but we also see Morgan Wade on camera. As usual with BH, this raises questions of what elements have been outright scripted. 

Surprisingly little of Annemarie. We saw more of the Spanish chef. 

It also feels like this is trying to be Erika's redemption season?

Seeing Jax talk about needing his mom two years' ago was unexpected, and felt raw. I have to imagine he's talking about when the Twitter bots went after him.

First of all @Liberty City sorry I did not see the individual shots. 

 

And second of all...

 

See? THAT was juicy with real life stuff (and some scripted) and I felt everyone was working. And JENNIFER TILLY!!! Work those connections, Sutton.

 

And I will always be here for a Kyle takedown (and EricFake can STFU), but I gasped when she gathered Mo and have to give her her props for that. 

 

Best of all...no Ex Soap Opera Star in sight. 

 

ETA: Get her, Garcelle!!! And by her, I mean KYLE. Why? Turnabout is fair play.

    • I remember seeing him briefly when Rick went to confront her about her blackmailing him. (I briefly forgot that Rick's sleeping with Claire at this time was a retcon - or her lying that she slept with him, whatever that story was). I wonder if he interacted with Kurt given that Mark Lewis later took his ATWT role. I tried to watch some of the full episode and it was all so alien and uninvolving. Roxy having a meltdown on that construction site for Mindy and Kurt's house that never gets built. Ed with Ross and Vanessa dealing with custody issues. Even Ross and Vanessa seemed flat, with Vanessa seeming oddly meek.
    • She did. It was during a party at Amanda's. She didn't literally throw herself at him, but she was subtly coming on to him and he quickly shut her down. Yes, I remember she not only made a pass at Justin, she convinced Jackie that he was harassing her sexually. She also tried to convince Sara that he was pestering her. Everyone banged Josh back then, LOL. Whoa. I must have missed a good chunk of this first time around because I don't remember Reva going to India.  What I recall is Harley being a nanny to the kids and then Reva driving off the bridge. Then they kind of toyed with the idea of Josh and Harley getting together but I don't think that ever happened. Yes, that all happens but I don't recall the tumor. Maybe that's coming up soon with the videos being uploaded to Spauldingfield. The last one I watched, she was planning to vamp Kyle while taking care of the pregnant Maeve.
    • I am a little disappointed that the show will be writing Jenn as in the wrong for her not liking Cat, when she's actually in the right.  Maybe if Cat was played by a competent actress and had a purpose, I would be more behind this propping of the character. And I can't wait for the funeral for John Black to be over and then we can proceed and move on.  
    • I'm not sure if the boy Carrie 2 seduced (I think his name was Ron) was still in high school or in college, but I remember he was very shy. I don't recall her making a pass at Alan, but she did make one at Justin, and she ended up banging Josh. I think there was an out of town business man too. Reva thought Josh and Vanessa were having an affair. Vanessa had just been fired by Roger, and when Reva took off to India, Van started helping Josh with the children. He then hired Van to work at Lewis. She would hear him on a business call with Van and think they were arranging a tryst. Or they sat too close together on the couch, so of course they were hiding an affair from her. It was very weird and blew up really quick.  It culminated at the party Reva was throwing at the club to introduce Dylan to Justin. Reva imagined everyone whispering about her and then she dumped a tray of drinks on Vanessa. When Vanessa hauled her into the ladies room to ask WTF, Reva accuses them of having an affair, asks if Van's pregnant, and then knocks her to the floor. I do think Claire had a tumor. I know around Valentine's day, Claire is making passes at a young businessman (or maybe even someone college age), and Ross (Van kinda pushed her at him because she's not keen on Calla). There's also a young intern played by Burke Moses that I think she sleeps with.
    • Congratulations to Carlos Alcaraz on his second win at the French Open!

        If the standard of play in the women's final yesterday wasn't of the highest caliber, that is not something you could say about today's final. It was absolutely fantastic tennis. 
    • When Barbara's letter was read (partly in Barbara's voice), there was commenting upthread that Barbara's voice is similar to the voice of Naomi's unhoused client June.  It did sound like her.  June is played by Jasmine Burke.  Per closing credits, Barbara was voiced by Sherita Bolden.  Still possible that they are connected. From our discussion on the May thread:  Looks and/or voices similar between June, Haley, and Tracy.   Tracy looks like Debbi Morgan. LOL so June might be connected to Haley, Tracy, or Barbara; and/or Samantha&Tyrell. I love that we don't know!
    • In the 1987 episodes, Mary has wonderful conversations with MJ and Cheryl. This is a realistic family with believable dynamics. Mary's ambivalence towards Vince is played nicely. Denise Alexander is so good here. I don't know what happened that the writers or producers just decided to chuck it all away. I don't FF these scenes. The show had a strong family that could have had years of storyline and they did nothing with them. I really don't get it. 
    • I can't speak for Sonni, but I thought Annie came off as neurotic from very early on. That's just how Cynthia Watros plays her parts, and the writing went along. I don't think Claire was mentally ill - they claimed she had a brain tumor, didn't they? I am never sure just why they made the effort given that she was leaving anyway. 
    • @DeeVee Claire is a perfect example. So many women came to Springfield as competent, smart, and talented professionals. Then they’d attract a so-called “good guy,” get dumped, and spiral into complete chaos. What always strikes me is how clearly it plays like a male fantasy—yet it was written and sold to a female audience.  I'm not a content expert, but I don't think cis gendered women fantasize about losing control of their mental faculties in response to an orgasm. Similar to Holly's story, it seems repulsive, because I don't believe women fantasize about becoming more vulnerable and appealing to men after they've been assaulted.
