Agreed. If she returns, Im done. I didnt even watch all the episodes this season bc of her and only tuned into the finale and reunion to see her get dragged. She doesnt deserve  redemption arc. Her presence alone is such a turnoff

Mad as a box of frogs. 

Take a bow, SLC Housewives. THAT is how you do a 3 part reunion. They got down in the dirt and fought it out, but also reached some form of resolution and détente with their disputes. I would not change a thing about this cast. Bring 'em all back. 

PS: Meredith, Jenn Shaw is a piece of sh*t who scammed the vulnerable and elderly. She doesn't deserve a second chance.

Agreed, that was a great ending. MVP to Mary because her reactions always have me in giggles. And I can't believe I'm finally coming around, but I was actually okay with Angie. Her seemingly genuine friendship with Mary, while finally not smirking and posing for the camera, is making me warm to her. 

In terms of Little Girl Whitney vs. Lisa and/or Meredith, I'm actually on Little Girl's side for the most part. As mentioned, Lisa can trash talk other people and their marriage but it's a boiling hot scandal if they do the same to her.

RHOP: In what should be a surprise to almost nobody, word on the street is Stacey was paying TJ to play the role of her boyfriend, and he doesn’t show up to the reunion because she was two payments (2 months) behind on paying him.

Said what I want to say about SLC...and I will...Part 3 was definitely them fighting it out. And some resolutions did come...but how Andy was acting this part really turned me off a bit. Glad the ladies kept on pushing though.

Agreed! I wouldn't change a thing about this cast, eventhough I like bronwyn a lot less than the beginning of the season. The dynamics are still interesting. 

I am team Whitney too. She didn't have a storyline but she made up for it with her interactions in the group. 

Andy can not control these women. I sometimes feel bad for him

I guess I had to sit with this. I didn't know why really. Until I got online. Then it hit me.

 

Production was totally trying to run with a redemptive arc for Brynn. Uhhhhh NOPE. She did all of that mess throughout the season and became a liability at the end. A dangerous one. There's no way to redeem her unless she goes and get help. So with that in mind, Part 2 was not nearly as good as Part 1. 

 

Don't get me wrong. There was plenty of content. Perhaps too much actually. People (especially Sai who heel NEVER left Brynn's neck) kept giving Brynn lashings. IMHO Rebecca's segment was the highlight. While she fumbled a clear explanation about Scientology and their practices, I felt she became aware enough of the ladies wanting to get that on camera and was coy. She also gave us an unexpected bout with Erin where she handled Erin well...and Erin showed her slip. And Rebecca is never here for Brynn so she read her ass for me. Just...where was all this mouth during the season lol? And of course, there was Brynn vs Ubah...boostered by the fact that the whole group kept checking Brynn whenever she took a lie. I was surprised to see Erin, Sai, AND Jenna continued to pounce on Brynn whenever she would stray from owning her crap and taking accountability.

 

Where the reunion failed me was that in the end, they let Brynn get away with not taking accountability. If one has to keep nitpicking your monologue aka attempt at false narrative, apologizing to you when you ARE NOT the victim with your fake tears, then the apology you force...not say...out of your lips...is not going to seem sincere. So Brynn FINALLY apologizing Ubah like a kid after throwing a biiiiiggggg temper tantrum fell flat for me. She fake cried. She tried to paint a false narrative where she was the victim...only to have Erin and Sai jump her with 'you didn't say that.' She tried to appear like she was a victim, weaponizing her trauma...only to have Jenna right there to correct her from using it as a weapon. And she was being the fixed sign she is and was dragging her feet. Ubah apologized to HER? so she had her own piece of mind. And Andy...just let it happen. 

 

Was there resolution for Ubah? I feel so. But for the audience...I don't think so. There can be none if Brynn stays. She has to go. And get help.

 

ERIN. If I'm honest...she actually continued to show why she has been good casting. Erin always shows the good, the bad, and the ugly. And there was a good mix for her here whether I liked it or not. lol. I liked that she started to nitpick Brynn right along with Sai. And she took accountability (after Sai and Andy confronted her) for her part in the mean girl chat with Brynn and Sai. But I felt she showed her slip when she threw Rebecca...who she introduced to the cast as her friend...under the bus. She was coming across as a Kyle Richards as if Rebecca did not check in on her at all during her parents drama. When Rebecca proved she did, she was not satisfied. So I loved Rebecca flipping the script when Erin called her self-absorbed as if Rebecca was not talking to the Queen of it. Girl, bye. lol. So I can't help, but feel that the nitpicking at Brynn was very strategic. 

 

JENNA. Jenna leading a gang-up? WHhhhat?? lol. Other than that, I didn't like the others making Jenna go and talk to Brynn on break. The divide was so clear. But good on Jenna for not only letting her Gemini out and calling Brynn out, but also trying to get Brynn to see her way out of her current drama. It's a shame she went back to babying Brynn in the end though. 

 

SAI. Stay, stay, STAYED on Brynn's neck through both parts of the reunion. God bless her for that. And color me shocked that she briefly got into it with Erin over Erin trying to act like she was not talking crap about Jessel. And of course, Sai was the only one who could have explained Raquel's point of view to Ubah even if Ubah did not want to hear it. 

 

RAQUEL. Except for her segment about her vs Ubah, she really didn't do much.

 

JESSEL. Outside of her showing how well she knows Ubah...and she was not wrong cuz how Ubah (or anyone) acts toward someone depends on how you come at her (or them)...she did not do much either this part.

 

UBAH. Now that she's living with Oliver and out of New York, I don't even know if she will be back next season. But honestly, I liked her this part of the reunion. It took two years, but I felt she was being authentic. Which just like Erin, it can be for better or for worse. For every moment she was bad (though I giggled at 'you know what? continue to be afraid.'), she had good moments. I love her checking Andy as if they both don't love the D.

 And have you look at her? She's a hot model. Of course, she gets free stuff. Stay pressed, Brynn. But going back to bad, I didn't like how she handled things with Raquel. And even when Sai explained it better, she did not care, and that was a bad look for Ubah. But just as quick...how she can have tears for someone who tried to ruin her...and forgive them...she has a big heart. Even a bigger heart than me. I would be curious to see where her story goes.

 

BRYNN. I guess I am going to eat crow. but unlike the topic, I can take accountability. I loved her her first season. But now? Even Real Brooke Davis would have taken better accountability. I cannot even begin to think about the last time she has made me laugh. And this part of the reunion she was doing everything possible to not own her crap. They were better off lashing her like they did in Part 1. She can't handle it? It's too much? WHERE? It wasn't enough if she was still trying to throw everything off. She seriously needs to go and get help. I don't want her back. 

 

I will say this much. I do want to see how they navigate this. So looking forward to next season. A pretty solid reunion. I looked forward to it more than I did SLC tbh.

Sonja's ex-husband, John Adams Morgan, died earlier this month at the age of 94.

The obituary that was posted by the Morgan Foundation only mentioned his current wife (his 5th), but none of his children.

https://people.com/john-adams-morgan-dead-banker-and-sonja-morgan-ex-husband-was-94-8627805

His death may provide some closure to Sonja so she can let go of the past. I hope it does and that she's able to move forward with her life with joy and happiness.

SLC

 

In a word...chaotic.

 

I guess if I think about it...the whole reunion was chaotic, but Part 3 for sure was crazy! Britini in all of her crazy thirsty glory...and Mary not here for it! Bob, Jared's small D rumor, and the unseen footage! Lisa vs Ms. Whit! Andy unusually pressed! Mary having Ms. Whit's back against the fake narrative of Jen Shah getting a second chance...but MONICA can't! Bob getting her lick back on Lisa 'Social Friend' Barlow! Heather's lame attempts for relevancy. Everything, but the kitchen sink, hunni!!!

 

What I really liked about this part? That even the ladies got tired of how Andy acts at a reunion and just ran right on pass him to force some resolution...which is what THE AUDIENCE would like.  Was that Lisa vs Ms. Whit segment brutal? Oh, yes. But I liked they FINALLY came to some kind of compromise/truce/resolution in spite of interference. Will it hold? I guess we'll see next season.

 

LISA. I feel like someday her ability to not have true empathy for others or to care about anyone but herself will eventually come back to bite her on her butt. I did like Production gave her just that little bit of unseen footage of her defending Bob and her marriage, but that felt like they were doing that to protect Lisa as a favorite (like that rumor that she and Mary got into it over their kids that was cut from the cast trip to protect both) than to show that Lisa is a good friend. She isn't. Which is why I LOVE Ms. Whit setting her up about how she's a good friend to have THREE witnesses (Bob, Mary, Angie K) on the couch next to her who ALL can say otherwise. Well-played, Whitney. And after pressing her, Lisa had no choice, but to come to some compromise. Let's see if she upholds that. Honorable mention...her pulling a Regina George on Heather with the STFU. 

 

HEATHER. She even threw Britini...who came on as HER friend...under the bus just to appear relevant. lol. That was how irrelevant Terri Demarco Heather was to this reunion. The ONLY time that she was relevant was when Ms. Whit flipped the script on Meredith (with Mary's help) and called out the hypocrisy of the ladies still going to bat for Jen Shah over Monica. THAT was the time for Heather to speak up. Even Production with the cameras knew that and focused clear on Heather. And what did she do? Looking down and sat there like a little church mouse. Weak sauce.

 

MEREDITH. Smh. I'm sure she did not like Mary speaking up against her over Jen Shah. Not that she should have been surprised. One of Mary's many throughline has always been Mary does not see it at all for Jen Shah. Moreso now that it's been proven this show can go on WITHOUT her. Unlike without Mary. Now *PhaedraParks*CHECK THAT.*PhaedraParks*

ANGIE K. Curiously muted outside of the fact she and Brit came in the same dress. lol. Glad she came to a little truce over High Body Count Hair. 

 

MARY. MVP for me. Not only backing up Ms. Whit when Jen Shah came up, but she dished out truth on all of them. Because what Mary has never liked about them has been the fact that they don't like to be held accountable for things they actually did. And perhaps they wanted to have selective amnesia if they want, but most people remember how much of a (flashy) terror Jen was. And lest they forget, she was STEALING FROM OLD PEOPLE to fund her lifestyle. And also she LIED RIGHT UP UNTIL SHE WENT TO JAIL!!! Mary was reading that left couch, and I was living...backhanded compliments to Jen and all. And Couch Left can feel any way they want, but Mary be standing in her truth and worse...is an Andy's favorite...so they can't say JACK to her. And even if they did...she would read them like a Scripture (c) Mary Crosby. And I was also lmao at how she don't see it for Britini at all.

 

WHITNEY. Okay, she earned me calling her by her name. lol. Cuz for her not doing much in the other parts really, Whitney came out to play for this part. And that coup de grace of her setting Lisa up to look oh so stupid to Couch Right in the Best Friend Ever Contest was something out of Ashley Darby's playbook, and I was not mad at it. She came across silly, but rational vs Lisa. And to Lisa, image is EVERYTHING. So Lisa had to call a truce after. The fact that she and Lisa went toe to toe was crazy to watch. While I want them to maintain their truce, if they do not...Whitney needs to come like this moving forward. 

 

BOB. Hehe. I enjoyed her getting her lick back on Lisa. And her vs Britini will never not be funny. And all that tea about Jared...lmao. And the tea of the unseen footage and that her AND Lisa heard this rumor from some random guy from the spa. Hmmm. And then...Jared CLAPPED BACK ONLINE. And Production SHOWED the callback. I hollered. 

 

BRITINI. You know what? She is coco bananas, but I warmed up to her by the end. I don't want her to have a snowflake, but I don't mind her coming back in this FOH capacity. She was hilarious during the reunion. SLC's answer to Marlo of the old RHOA days. And the fact she waited around after her segment thinking she was going to come back for the end of toast. lol. And not to mention she was hoping to make an entrance was also lol. 

 

I also loved the positive note moment that Andy staged at the end. Usually they fall flat for me, but this one felt genuine. 

 

I didn't think this show would have a good season after S4 with Monica, but I'm eating my words. It was a pretty good season. A good newbie. Good personal stories and subplots. Personal good FOH. And it was mostly wrapped up at the end without it getting toxic. 

 

Can't wait for next season.

Great write-up, and I have to cosign on Whitney coming out as the bigger person. Lisa has such tunnel vision, can't shut her yapper, and has very little genuine sympathy or empathy for anyone else. 

Crazy how a good season can turn one's opinion around for the time being. For instance, I thought this was mostly a great season for Potomac's Gizelle. She's lucky Candiace opted to leave the show, and perhaps she's best on her own without her sidekick. Instead, she has to learn to buddy up with others.

I couldn’t believe how much I liked Gizelle this season when I’ve hated her since season 1. Being forced to be friends with everyone and not being able to ice people out with Robyn did wonders for her. I hope the show realizes this and leaves Robyn where she is.

    • They didn't need to have some slutty gay dude as their representation. Just a 'normal' guy getting involved with another guy or two (or three). Just like the straight characters. Thinking about it, they missed the boat by not having a few other single charcters at the beginning. Maybe Naomi or Ashley could be shown meeting Derek/Jacob and  we could follow their romance. Too many characters were coupled up at the start. As a tattoo hater I was surprised to see Tomas so inked. Don't find it attractive or sexy. I'm surprised an actor would do that as it's definitely a statement and may not be appropriate for some roles. Suppose they can cover if necessary. I didn't buy Kat being all girly and then paying off Darius to get into Eva's room. Way too cliche. She should have just come along when the housekeeping was leaving and breezed in saying it was her room. And her smug looks in the hotel room and 'Now I've got you!!' talks to herself at Orphey Gene's...no.

    • I thought it got stale before Jocks death lol. His death picked things back up for me.
    • 1976 Pt 5 Tony is summoned to the reading of the will in the Llanfair library,as he’s a principal in the will. He tells Joe there’s not a chance of coming to terms with Dorian, as he is sure she brought about Victor’s death by torturing him emotionally when he was her helpless prisoner after his stroke. Ironically, Chapin hand delivers to Viki a letter her father wrote before his stroke, praising Dorian and asking Viki to befriend and support his widow when he was no longer there. Viki feels a responsibility to her father’s wishes and vows to try with Dorian. Victor’s will leaves the expected amounts to members of his family and staff, with the lion’s share of his stock and property going to Dorian. Victor’s will explains that his son Tony expressed the desire that he not be “bought from the grave,” and, in keeping with his son’s wishes, the only bequest to him is the knowledge of his father’s love and respect. Tony is deeply moved. Dorian’s first attempt to use her new power is the recommendation of Peter as head of the Merideth Lord Wolek hospital wing, claiming that naming Larry would be virtual nepotism. Peter, who has devoted considerable time and effort to helping Jenny get over Tim’s death with gentle, affectionate support, is happy at this suggestion, but Jenny points out Dorian is merely using him to hurt Larry. Viki disregards Dorian’s ingenuous assurances that she’s not trying to wield her new power but is merely putting Peter up for consideration for a future opportunity, if not this one, and tells her she won’t be able to fulfill her father’s desire that they be friends unless Dorian stops interfering. Larry, fully understanding Dorian’s personal motives, warns her he’s going to fight for the appointment no matter what. Realizing that she has made a tactical error, Dorian announces that she won’t even attend the board meeting but will give her proxy to Jim. She admits to Matt McAllister, still her confidant, that this was humiliating, but it was a necessary protective tactic. Dorian manages to win her next round at Joe’s office when, after he praises her decision to yield on appointing Peter, she expresses concern for Viki “at a time like this.” Joe, of course, jumps on her words, and Dorian, pretending great distress at having mentioned something she shouldn’t have, is “forced” to explain that she knew about the congenital heart condition Megan had and that any child of Joe’s is likely to inherit it. She overheard the doctors discussing it at the time of the accident, she continues, and naturally assumed that Joe already knew.  Joe arranges a meeting at home with Viki and asks her how she could live a lie like this; how she could go through their lives as if everything were fine while every moment was a lie. He is further upset when, in trying to explain that it was out of her love for him that she kept the truth from him, she mentions that Jim and Larry also know but Cathy still hasn’t been told. Viki tells Joe that Dorian deliberately told him this way to hurt their marriage, and she is very upset when he starts toward the door, pleading that they have always talked things out in the past. Joe coolly points out that she didn’t do that when she learned about Megan and continues out the door.  A tearful Viki is shaken and when Joe later returns, having spent several hours in a bar drinking only soft drinks,she breaks down, crying that she was convinced he’d left her. Joe assures her they can get through this despite everything, because their relation is based on love and mutual respect. 
    • If you think about it, DALLAS and DYNASTY grew stale right about the same time, even if the ratings were slow to reflect that.  FC and KL, on the other hand, tried to stay fresh, but KL was way more successful at it, I think, than FC.  (That [!@#$%^&*] with The Thirteen does not hold up well, lol).
    • GH 1976 Pt 8 Heather takes advantage of the situation by asking Jeff to come and look at Tommy. She uses sympathy, compassion, and her own feminine wiles, together with his misery and his pills, to lure him into bed. Later, sober, he apologizes. Learning from Pearson that Monica has seen a divorce lawyer, Jeff confronts her, and she insists it’s a lie. Avoiding his attempts to kiss her, she musses her hair and tears her blouse, then rushes to Rick’s, claiming that she can’t stay with that maniac any longer. They wind up in Rick’s bed, and after making love he confesses he always loved her. Rick replies to her question of whether he wants to marry her by saying he has to talk to Jeff. Monica insists that Jeff not bear any pressure from their problems. As she leaves, Rick gives her a key to his apartment. Jeff, having spent the night drinking, misses his surgical assignment, and Steve, informing him that his personal life can’t interfere with his profession, puts him on suspension. Rick can’t persuade Steve to reverse his decision, but Mark, sensing what’s at the heart of Jeff’s problem, convinces Steve to lift Jeff’s suspension and transfer him to Mark’s service. Rick asks for his key back, telling Monica they can’t do anything as long as she’s under Jeff’s roof. So she has a duplicate made and moves into intern’s quarters, explaining that Jeff’s violence drove her out. She tells Jeff she needs privacy to work things out, and tells Rick Jeff wanted her out. Thinking that this is the preliminary to a divorce, Rick tells her she can come to his place. In New York, Leslie’s abortion is delayed by a mix-up in scheduling, and she calls Terri to commiserate. Rick overhears Terri’s conversation and forces the whole story from her. He flies to New York to stop Leslie, feeling responsible for pointing out how evil Cam was, and arrives to find that she has decided she can’t deny her child the right to live. Monica, meanwhile, expecting that Rick will be home, uses her key to let herself into his apartment and is shocked to find Mark there; knowing that Mark was uncomfortable at the hotel, Rick offered Mark use of the apartment in his absence. Monica is upset to learn that Rick is in New York with Leslie, and Mark doesn’t know why. Mark does advise Monica to play fair with Jeff, but she resents his interference. The next day, while covering for Leslie at the clinic, Monica discovers Leslie’s lab test report and jumps to the conclusion that the baby is Rick’s. When Rick and Leslie return, Monica wastes no time in accusing him. He is dismayed to see that she is still as suspicious and possessive as she was before he went to Africa, and points out that her making a duplicate  key proves she hasn’t changed. Terri encourages Leslie to see Rick in a romantic light and then suggests to Rick that Leslie is interested in him. Rick likes this idea and tells Mark he’s growing ‘unwilling to cope with Monica’s unreasonable demands. But Monica immediately recognizes the threat Leslie represents and decides to attack. She goes to Leslie and tells her flatly that she and Rick are having an affair and he’s her exclusive property. Leslie, who realizes she has been falling in love with Rick, is hurt, and Rick is mystified when he feels Leslie pulling away from him. Monica’s big moment comes when she brings Rick a housewarming gift and seduces him into letting her stay overnight. She is in the bedroom when Leslie stops by to apologize for refusing his dates, and makes a dramatic entrance into the living room draped in Rick’s bathrobe. Leslie turns and runs out. Rick later informs her he’s disappointed in her, because she prejudged Monica and him rather than giving him the benefit of the doubt. Heather tries to arrange another tryst with Jeff, but he replies that he still loves his wife. Heather decides there’s only one way to get Jeff to be pregnant with his child. She manages to overhear Monica putting Jeff down by telling him he no longer turns her on and should look for someone he does. Heather goes to Jeff and tells him that she heard Monica and that she is the one he’s looking for. She manages to get him into bed again, and sweetly assures him this is right. She then sets the stage for future meetings. Steve, meanwhile, offers to help Monica and Jeff work out their problems. Jeff is willing, but Monica turns the idea down. Instead, she presses Terri to convince Jeff to end the marriage. Terri now knows that Monica isn’t a good wife for Jeff and promises to try. But Jeff makes it clear to Monica that he still loves her and won’t let her go. She is bitter and upset, as she has already implied to Rick that she will soon be free. Audrey is upset to find that Florence Andrews has been inquiring about Tommy and herself. She goes to Florence’s home and finds she’s away now. Florence has gone down to Mexico to sign a sworn statement that she purchased a false death certificate for Tom, to protect his son after his wrongful conviction. Tom, learning from her that Steve and Audrey are to be married and Steve is planning to adopt Tommy, tells  Florence not to do anything, as there’s still no assurance that he’ll ever get out. But the judge does accept the statement, and, ironically, on the day that Steve  and Audrey are married, Tom is released from prison.
    • 1976 Pt 12 Final part Laurie agrees with Stuart that Peggy is rushing into marriage to prove that the rape didn’t ruin her life.  She points out that the only way Peg can be sure is to make love with Jack before the wedding. Stuart admits she’s right but points out that he can’t suggest that to Peggy. As the wedding approaches, Peg seems happy that Jack’s become close to the family. However, her happiness is shattered by a nightmare in which her loving bridegroom turns into a leering Ron Becker, forcing her to cancel the wedding. Jack reassures her he’ll wait as long as it takes, and Chris confides that she and Snapper didn’t consummate their marriage on their wedding night because of her own rape experience, but Peggy tells Chris she might never be ready.  Despite her desire to keep Karen as her own daughter, Chris helps a police artist create a sketch of Nancy so it can be printed in the newspaper as part of a search for her. When the attempt proves fruitless, however, Chris asks Greg to file application for permanent custody of the child. Greg points out that adoption is the only way to prevent Ron from returning and claiming the child, and that it will take quite a while. Meanwhile, a nurse in the psychiatric ward sees a resemblance  between the newspaper drawing and her autistic patient, Mrs. Jackson, but since “Fran” doesn’t respond to the name Nancy and no one else sees the similarity, she fears she’s mistaken. Jill is horrified to overhear Kay, when brihging baby Phillip a Christmas gift, telling the child she remembers the night he was conceived. Kay has to then admit to Jill she saw her with Phillip in the bunkhouse that night. Jill is aghast to realize that Kay new the truth all along and put her through such agony in spite of it, denying her baby his father’s name. Lance tells Laurie they’ll marry on Valentine’s Day. He laughs that it’s corny but agrees, secretly wishing it were sooner, as Vanessa has vowed to prevent it. Indeed, Vanessa makes an unprecedented venture out of the house to visit Brad, telling him to rebuff any advance Leslie might make to him, as she’s reaching out to him only from a sense of duty. But Laurie then makes a concerted effort to reach Vanessa. Without being sure why she’s trying so hard, she tries to assure the woman she’s not losing Lance and she, Laurie, will help her find a plastic surgeon somewhere who can help her. Grudgingly, Vanessa seems to be reconsidering her view of Laurie, and Laurie is delighted when Lance offers her a choice between two diamond necklaces, explaining that her preference will be Vanessa’s Christmas gift. Learning from Les about Brad’s blindness, Stuart tells Brad he could have turned Leslie away only out of great love. Knowing that Les is going to see Brad again, Laurie warns him not to bring the baby into their discussion, as Leslie will come back only she’s convinced he loves her, not for the babies sake. Leslie finds Brad disheveled and sloppy, and proceeds to straighten the apartment, stating that she can't respect him if he lets himself go. Realizing that neither Brad nor Les will make the first move, Laurie hurries things along by refusing to help Brad with his grooming, saying he should ask his wife. Then, having learned  that Brad offered Les the use of their piano, Laurie untunes the Brooks' piano forcing Leslie to accept his offer. By refusing to cater to his  blindness, Les manages to get Brad to stop wallowing in pity, and by the time Leslie’s Christmas braille message of her love and her need for him arrives, they are husband and wife again Lance takes Laurie on a business trip on New Year's Eve, and tells her, on board his plane, she won't be  won't be able to call him “Mr. All Talk and No action” after tonight. When Laurie protests that waited this long and will continue to wait until married, Lance delights her by instructing his pilot to land in Las Vegas, where they are married immediately.
    • Yeah, not sure why Jack and Jen didn’t rush to Marlena - or even Carrie - to offer their condolences. A few flashbacks would've been a nice touch too. Instead, we got a whole episode of them talking about Chad and Abby? Come on. On the bright side, I loved Anna’s scenes with Marlena and Carrie - sweet and heartfelt, felt like a real 80s throwback.
