Bravo's The Real Housewives of....

[DemetriKane]

RHOA

I enjoyed every scene except Porsha with her mom, they're clearly setting up a Porsha/Shamea fallout.

Kenya is actually getting a really good edit this season, the limited camera time makes her more likable to me. And, it makes you miss her because she is the only one playing EP and pushing the stories.

I am also loving Cynthia in her limited role. Having her dish out wise advice just feels right.

Brit is great around the other ladies, truthfully she comes off as very subtle and sweet; but around her husband, it's like another show. 

Shamea and Kelli are top-tier housewives imo. They are adding the wealth, events, substance, and revealing layers to their personality. 

Shamea and Angela have a nice feud percolating. And I am guessing Kelli and Porsha will become Frienemies.

I like Charles more than I like Angela. 

Overall, the show is decent, and for the first time in years the newbies are carrying the show. 

Porsha and Drew are the weak spots for me right now. I have no reaction to Drew crying cause I don't care.

Thank you! I will try it out.

In-between: Dorit, Jennifer Tilly, Kathy

 

Nope...Sutton, Boz

Oh my God!

I did not see that coming. I came on here to say how great she looked in her reunion look -- a nice nod to the 90s, too.

Speculation could say 'Oh, something happened at reunion yesterday to prompt this decision,' but the planned statement suggests this may have been on Garcelle's mind for some time.

I noticed Twitter had gotten b!tchy and dismissive of her as 'a bore,' and I wonder if she decided she had gleaned all she could from the franchise and now was an opportune time to leave before things possibly soured.

OR! Lisa Rinna is coming back, and so Garcelle peaced out.

Either way, I like her. Her arrival marked the beginning of the end for the Coven/Faux Force Five, and for that I say, Garcelle, Thank You.

I'm sure you suspected it would end up this way, as most of us here did. Especially as Teresa is not getting a Bravo check this year.

By my calculations, that is $4,100,000 in debt on these 4 items alone.

This sucks. The show is going to be unbalanced again with the FF losers.

[Cheap21]

Im really gonna miss Garcelle. I wonder why she announced now instead of after the reunion. I can only assume so that its clear that its her choice and that she isnt fired

[alwaysAMC]

Yeah, I just listened to her instagram video she made about this.  Sounds like 100% her choice - her son is graduating high school and another is starting a new career and she really wants to be present and around for those things in the next year, along with all the other non-RH projects she has coming up.  I think contractually she had to wait to say something until after the reunion is filmed.

Now who is Sutton going to lean on - she'll be an island, because Kyle isn't that girl for her, as much as Sutton wants it haha.

I do hope this means we have new blood and a shakeup in BH next season.  This season just wasn't it for me.

Truthfully, on this these types of shows... I think 4 to 5 seasons is the max you should be on the show.  Unless you have an interesting personal and family life that you're willing to share.

We've seen everything within Garcelles life, and I'm going to be honest... I would have respected her more if she had opted to leave after the vile way her son was treated.  Her coming back showed that she put her career over her child's well being.

With that said, she had a good run and she's leaving while still on top.  Something maybe Vyle Kyle should have done a few seasons back.

[Taoboi]

I listened to her good-bye and understand, but I can't help, but wonder...given the reunion dress...if she went out with a bang, too. 

[DemetriKane]

Honestly, after her first two seasons, I was over Garcelle. She did change the dynamics though. I enjoyed her friendship with Sutton.

This does put Sutton in a peculiar spot. Excited to see what she does NOW.

I actually agree, 5-7 years is more than enough time to conquer the genre, build a solid new following, etc. She had a nice run!

[DaytimeFan]

And now word is their New Jersey home is up for sale.

Teresa deserves everything coming her way. The hubris this woman displays is appalling.

Ugh. This truly sucks. Garcelle has been a breath of fresh air for this show and one of the bright spots. 

This has been a lackluster season for me. It started off well with Dorit's marriage imploding and her fight with Kyle...but once that settled, nothing happened. I feel Dorit is the one who gave the most in terms of storyline.

Kyle is unwilling to tell the truth about her life and is supported by the rest of the cast in doing so. She otherwise is dull as dishwater and always has been.

Erika's storyline was about wallpaper.

Sutton reacted to everyone this season.

Boz had a good introductory season.

Jennifer and Kathy added sparkle and humour. But nothing else.

Oh???
