Oh, it really was. I was just sorry to be late to watching it. But I blame THAT on Bravo for messing with the time. 

 

It was such a great reunion and I agree. Beautiful chaos. 

 

No!!! Not my Adriana!!! lol.  But I do think Kiki is on her way to full promotion. You see her with Karent? 

 

 

After two years...FINALLY the rift between Ayan and Milan REVEALED. 

 

It's what I've been looking forward to seeing. But also dreading to see. I loved the duo of Ayan and Milan and felt since I never saw COLLEGE HILL, that Milan like Bethanny before her on NY...was word of mouth before I saw her...and lived up to her hype to me. So a feud between her and Caroline from LADIES OF LONDON fame would have been marvelous. I feel like the Ayan/Milan breakup will be just as messy as Mariah/Quad breakup. 

 

I'm always here for Brooks. 

 

I'm curious if given what Ayan hinted at about Sara last year, will this be the year Sara's 'mask' falls off. I know I felt she was fascinating...and not because she has touched her face...lol...but I could not put my finger on it. Then we got to the reunion and she was acting a la Heather S1 SLC reunion. So...will the real Sara please stand up?

 

 I look forward to Marysol 2.0 and they are getting a FOH this year.

 

Excited.

RHOP

#boycottRHOP is currently trending on Twitter/X

Good riddance to this season. It was truly a flop aside from the last 15 minutes of the finale, and the first 10 minutes of part 3 of the reunion...all of which concerned Mia and Gordon.

Gordon's admission about bipolar disorder was brave and also make a lot of sense about what's happened to his life. How Mia handled it speaks to a character I haven't seen before...she's now less morally bankrupt and more morally a credit risk.

Karen looks amazing and her facelift is incredible. 

Give Kiarna a flute of champagne. I am glad she said what she did about Ashley, she is the queen of the aftermath apology but has no problem instigating anything.

They should fire Nneka and Wendy. They're both flops. Wendy has no storyline given her serial ventures while Nneka sat through this reunion like an audience member at an air show. It blew me away that Ashley got away with all the "Osu" crap that she started between them. 

Speaking of Ashley, she's evil, and I hope Michael doesn't bend in their divorce. She is so nasty and the way she tries to deflect responsibility is sickening. I kept hoping someone would snatch that Raquel Welch Collection wig off her head.

Speaking of sickening, Gizelle's attitude about what Deborah did was so gross. 

It's clear that Candiace could never, ever, bridge the gap with Gizelle and I wager her exit was something agreed to with production. The problem is production chose the wrong HW. They should have fired Gizelle with her manufactured 'romance' with Summer House's Jason and the Lululemon ripoff, GnA. Ashley, Juan's Roommate, and Gizelle were trying to justify violence against Candiace however they could. 

I will miss Candiace's quick wit. 

I'm relieved that production decided to stop trying to make Charisse happen and they didn't bring her on in whatever ensemble she was able to scare up from Dress Barn.

Andy being crowned Duke of Potomac...if ever there was someone who has no business running a reunion ever again, it's him.

Wait a minute... RHOA hasn't started filming YET?

Even if they are still deciding on the other women, they do have one certainty -- Porsha. Who they need to already be filming! They need to be swarming Simon's mansion and prepping Ms. Diane and Lauren for their VTs. This is going to be the second Porsha scandals that hasn't made it to air! She's signed, her marriage has imploded, and we need this in real-time. Otherwise, RHOA is set to become totally irrelevant -- an afterthought to shenanigans taking place on social media.

On SLC, Monica Garcia is now knocked up. Why the show isn't filming her is anybody's guess. It's like Truly Original (which also films RHOA and RHOP) literally wants their franchises to flop.

The scheduling mess I put entirely at the feet of Bravo. I could barely hit BH, Miami, Potomac, SLC and M2M all at once, and it was ridiculous that the network was screening most of its best shows at the same time. Now we are sitting on our asses waiting for (checks notes) Dubai to do the heavy lifting in June? Don't get me wrong, I love the cast but this is not a heavy-hitter ratings-wise. And yes, I know RHONJ is coming soon but I'm of two minds about that one, too. Fuda and Staten Island are not doing it for me as newbies.

It's also too bad about Dallas. I would love to see Leeanne, Cary, Dr. Tiffany and D'Andra reboot the show a la Miami.

And this is why Karent needs to be added to the cast! Las Cubanas could not abide her. Especially Marysol, who in season 2 excoriated her with: "Karent, the carrier pigeon, comes swooping in. And I unrolled the message from her leg that said 'You're in trouble for wearing fur.'"

 

Will be watching RHOP later but I can see from @DaytimeFan post that this is going to be a hate-watch. I totally agree that Candiace was the wrong dismissal -- it should have been Gizelle who is poisoning the show from within.

@Cat, nope. RHOA has not started to film yet. They are still casting and negotiating with I guess Sheree and Drew. I should go into casting b/c I could easily find women here in GA to be on RHOA that would make the ratings shoot through the roof. There are plenty of characters with money in Atlanta. You just gotta know how to find them. I don't even think Bravo is trying b/c as aforementioned, they are zero focused on trying to land someone with a "name." 

I am sure the production team is kicking themselves by not keeping Monica. Monica being a pregnant mess would be ratings gold. Can you imagine how it was when she probably got the news?! 

In other news, Robyn has officially confirmed that she is OUT.

As for the reunion I dont have much to say but the gaslighting was so annoying. I can see why Candiace felt defeated and quit. The GEBs were not open to reconcilation, lied on her and production and Andy protected them while trying to blame Candiace and holding her accountability for ish that she shouldnt have to bear. F them all realy

 

The MVP of the reunion was Keiarna. The way she effortless gathered Ashley with class is how you do it. She was also emotional, vulnerable and very gracious to productio and had kind words to say about most of the ladies. I think she earned her spot back

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!! Starting my week with Miranda Priestly??? *chef's kiss* 

 

That said...THAT IS shocking that Andy and a camera are not picking up all this Porsha/Monica mess. I guess his slip is showing even more than it already was. Especially in Monica's case. We have already missed her working the circuit, developing a show that IS not TRAITORS SEASON 3, get into it with her mother even more, and now she's preggers. Missed opportunity indeed.

 

Hehe. You remind me that I still haven't done my yearly Season 2 of RHOM binge. Cuz yes...their hatred for Karent was so unreal. 

 

Well, I guess Juan can cheat in peace now.

Pleased for the Bassetts. Did not have the Nepola-Echevarria divorce on my bingo card! Hopefully this has secured Adriana 'Psychic' de Moura's spot for next season.

    • 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.
