 You will LOVE them. Vancouver Season 1 is a complete storyline from start to finish alone. But Melbourne...I heard of the awesome fabulousness of Gina loooong before I saw her due to this board. And once I saw her due to a marathon on Bravo...it was love at first sight.

100%. Every episode has been the same configuration, different locale, but even St Lucia cannot save us from the repetitiveness now. I hope the reunion is two episodes away, and not 5!. Sutton, Garcelle and Dorit are trying hard to make the rivalries work but it just feels so scripted and produced -- right down to Garcelle's Production-induced prodding of Kyle's love life.

The only positive aspect was we didn't get Kyle & Mo passive-aggressively staring each other down.

Vancouver S1 had a SL for the ages: the battle of good versus evil for the troubled soul of Ronnie Negus. Seriously, though, it was perfection. Not a wasted minute. And what a fantastic Greek chorus Christina was.

As for Melbourne, that cast you cited radiated joy, directness,  humour and self-deprecation. These women were strong in their own selves, and therefore able to laugh at themselves. Just like with classic OG RHONY, there were episodes were I literally laughed out loud.

I hope you check them out. Both seasons 1 of Melbourne and of Vancouver are short and very accessible. Vancouver is intense as only female friendships can be and chock full of drama. Melbourne is hilarious, with two clueless, wealthy HWs really thinking they were the bee's knees -- and getting exposed on camera as a result.

RHOA taglines are here!

 

Everyone ate but Brit. My faves are Shamea, Angela and Drew

Ohh I like these!  I don't mind the new graphics, although the title card for each lady is giving me Asian vibes - like Chinese with all the red graphics and their outfits... which is fine of course haha, but just what it reminds me of.

I will second what the other guys said. Vancouver season 1... is the wildest reality show ride... I've been on my entire life. Imagine a Disney villain... but real-life one... and then you have the antagonist of the franchise. It starts with a huge conflict... and there is no calm and boring SECOND.

I'm gonna have to see it on my tv screen but off hand...

 

SHAMEA WON!!! LOL. Then I also love Angela and Drew. I suspect Kelli's will grow on me as will Porsha's. Brit meh.

Thats my favorite track but wish it was longer bc its a bop!

Unusual also has some good vocals

Im shocked by how much Im loving Drew these days. I couldnt stand her in her debut season but she has emerged as my favorite peach (since Kenya got demoted). I do think the way she is moving in regards to Porsha to be snakelike but I find her fascinating and enjoyable. I root for her

Meh... Drew is kinda like Potomac's Wendy where I want to like her, but there's something off. Actually I think Drew ranks worse. Not only does she have a cringey wannabe personality, but her fake one-season business ventures have been so poorly done. The "drop it with Drew" mention on Sunday was a cute nod but also an example of one of her sloppily thrown together business storylines that never had any legs to begin with. 

It's pretty crazy that with this massive cast overhaul, she was the only one left standing. It's like RHONY Season 4 wiping out everyone but keeping Cindy Barshop.

Nah it makes sense. When S15 was going off the air, I felt they could have gotten rid of everyone and rebooted th show with nw younger woman around Drew and they kinda did that. She was the only one with story and ended the season with more to tell. Oh and best believe this music isnt just for a storyline. Its always been her passion and its what she started out trying to do decades ago but she didnt have the right team nor made the best decisions. Im glad to see it finally working in her favor

Drew is a combination of Wendy and Mia. A try hard and a liar. I’ve never taken to her and she’s one of those where I always wonder why they aren’t firing her.

    • Sami's Three Stooges stole the show today 

      Please register in order to view this content

      I enjoyed their individual scenes with other characters before they all came together at the Pub to commiserate over their relationships with Sami. I thought that was broken down pretty well. I just wish it had gone on a little longer. And I actually found it kinda funny too lol it seemed more mature than what we're used to. That's the kind of humor that should be on a soap. But I'm not really sure about all this talk of Dante Vitali and Sami's engagement though, especially since it doesn't look like Ali Sweeney is coming back anytime soon. What's the point of it all if we're (probably) not going to see it? It also looked like today was the first round of Brady vs. Xander as well lol I enjoyed their fight, and I'm interested in seeing this storyline play out. Even though I'm sure that Sarah will ultimately go back to Xander in the end, I'd like to see what happens along the way, and how they and everyone around them are affected by this. Btw, Theo and Jada? Idk. I still think he had the most chemistry with Arianna. And he was a bit of a dick too. It also seemed a little out of character for Jada to be so OK with him being such a dick  And though Alex and Stephanie were very boring again and need much better conflict than this book stuff, I am interested in the mystery of who's targeting Alex.  And yeah, I know this is a nitpick, but why is the Square still open after the gala? Isn't it supposed to be really late at night? 
    • In fairness, Hillary and Bob Woods were thick as thieves again at least by the end of OLTL. But both she and I believe Mark Derwin not so subtly dissed Kale Browne in the oral history, lol.

    • Frat Boy Jr.'s reaction to seeing Luna was just awful acting. It was so bad that I started laughing.

      Does anyone have screenshots of it?
    • Geez, I hadn't heard that Doctors story. HBS really did go through it. 
    • No offense to the actors involved, but dear God in heaven: I don't know HOW viewers managed to get through that storyline with Maggie, Frank, Cal and baby Jill without running into oncoming traffic.  Then, to make matters worse, they dragged poor Diana into the mess!  I don't care WHO gets that damn baby!  Just wrap it up and move ON already!
    • Poor HBS.  To have to put up with Stephen Burleigh, who stuck his knee between her legs while rehearsing a love scene on THE DOCTORS, then told the director that's what he did with his wife; Kincaid, who had more hair on his chest and upper lip than Koko the Gorilla; Kale Browne, who taped his lines all over the OLTL studio floor, because he couldn't ever be bothered to [!@#$%^&*] memorize them; and Robert S. Woods, who apparently thought it was still 1979 and that he was still smolderingly sexy, so why should Bo Buchanan be stuck being in a happy marriage with Nora?  After all that, no wonder she jumped at the chance to play a lesbian on VENICE, lol.
    • @Maxim Thank you for the mini-review and clip from several pages ago. I appreciate you using the Bo/Alex clip as them meeting again by this point was a real surprise to me. The scene has some layers, getting a glimpse of Alex genuinely wanting the best for Bo rather than gloating. I was disappointed it ended with Tina dragging her out of the room for some much less interesting sparring (I did enjoy Alex pointing out just how quickly Tina got over Cord).
