I can't bear Angie this season...

I'm almost close to the end... and this bish is just so rude... so hardcore all the time... and it feels like she is forcing herself to be like this. She wants spotlight. She wants ME! moments.

UGH.

The way she shoved that fake penis in Heather's mouth... at that public shop where who knows touched that thing before... was borderline assault. I don't like jokes like that. I would freaking sue you if you do this. Nobody gets to shove things in my mouth without my approval.

Heather... who I LOATHED the entire season... is a little easier to stomach the past 2-3 episodes. 

Mary's son... Lord... That's dark, dark stuff.

RHOBH:

Wait, this reunion is,stretched out beyond two parts? What an unwelcome surprise. I thought Garcelle was going to walk away at the end of this episode, and that i could walk away thereafter! Instead we got Dorit 'my house in the Valley is in foreclosure' sneering at Sutton's home on a busy street? What a cliffhanger. 

Sure, I've always thought Sutton buys people's friendship, as she seems to be an anxious and insecure person in her relationships. That doesn't mean she's Lisa Rinna level of evil.

Jennifer Tilly's jewellery collection is top-tier. But why was she so deferential to Erika?

Kyle spent the entire episode gaslighting everyone, including producton, about hiding her private life and co-opting the rest of the cast into doing it for her. She's somehow convinced Sutton that by doing so, she's letting her into her 'circle of trust.' But as Garcelle pointed out, it's all manipulation to intimidate others into silence. Everyone else sat there without saying a word, because (again, as Garcelle intimated) Kyle is de facto chief EP of this show, and everyone wants to keep their job. She has killed this show. All the other RH shows (especially SLC and OC) are showing it up for what a scripted borefest it is.

Cue that iconic Charrisse gif

Porsha is doing too much, now that Simon has left her without the money she married him for.

Maxim! I am also catching up on SLC, an absolute FIRE season, and I'm so thrilled I'm not the only one discovering it in real time! Im on the last episode of reunion and will post on it later.

That read on Little Girl was harsh but also Chef's Kiss.    Long overdue. Whitney needed to hear it, as Heather needed to hear her's. I actually gained a little more respect for Heather after her response to the text.

So, I felt a similar way about Todd, and then watched the second reunion episode and did a 180. I think his heart and principles are in the right place and fundamentally he's an OK guy. Will be interesting to hear your take.

As for Angie... i both really enjoy her and what she brought to SLC this,season... but I also acknowledge the truth of your words on Angie. She's thirsty and does too much sometimes and can be vengeful. She's got to be very careful about balancing that going forward. Her talking about her mom, her family, and her friendship with Mary, are winning me over to her. Mary is essentially this show's breakout star.

Well, I just finished. I thought it was a great reunion to an outstanding season. All these women need to come back next season-- this cast has finally gelled together, and even amid the animosity sometimes, you can feel the bonds these women have with each other, the shared experience. Like when Meredith blithely admitted to Jen Shah calling her, and everyone was like 'After the trauma that woman put us all through?' With Jen Shah gone, it kind of bonded the women together, upped their confidence... with the exception of Meredith who IMO has been striking out in all the wrong directions. A confident women, like S1 Meredith, would not have taken that call. Honestly, when Meredith threatened to walk off the set, I was like OK, go! I didn't care, and I usually love Meredith and her shaky diction.

Mary is truly MVP of this group, and i was outright sobbing when she talked about Robert Jr. Andy Cohen is one of those superficial people who glides through friendships with these women, but it honestly seems like Mary genuinely moves him and he cares for her a little more than everyone else. She absolutely grounds and stabilises this show. And she's legit hilarious without even meaning to be.

Lisa is a deeply narcissistic, superficial person and that will never change. But she does contribute to the SLC cast, and clearly her marriage will be in the spotlight next season. Certainly, I didn't buy Little Girl's promise that she'd never raise it again. Little Girl has dug a lot of dirt up about everyone and thinks she can threaten them with it, but the women have her number now and she's a checkers player, not a chess master.

I am Team Bronwyn and Todd. Unapologetically. I think Todd showed how much he cares for Gwen and his family. I very much hope Bronwyn is back next season, but I have a feeling Todd will refuse to film next season.

Heather is Heather. I hope she drops the self-deprecating act now after admitting to having more confidence now. She was suspiciously quiet during the talk of Jen Shah. I really hope she's not still pinning her RH future on that felon. The show has moved on from that.

Angie has grown into her own, although she still goes OTT when she's against someone. I get it -- as Shawn said, its hard to live the rumors down which have followed him for two seasons. What's interesting for next season is how Meredith is clearly jealous of her friendship with Mary.

Like @NothinButAttitude I agree that Brittani is thirsty and not very bright and much better as a FOH rather than an actual HW. But we will see. I am already looking forward to the next season starting later this year. Honestly, SLC was SO good, it was like it gave the RH brand hope and a new lease of life. Which is rather miraculous! I hope it preserves that particular chemistry between the cast. It was well balanced this season.

Well given the tea of the husbands (+ Jared) filming this past week and all the alleged drama going on with Lisa...it should be an interesting S6.


And lest we forget...Jen Shah got her prison term reduced all the way down to her now being released NEXT YEAR.

Again... f*ck Brit Eady!

And I am glad that Angela called her out on her many lies tonight. Girl, you don't lose licenses on rumors. Can they spark investigations? Yes. But enough with the lies to further make Kenya your 'bad guy.' I sincerely believe this idiot is being fed things to say by production/Bravo, but the women and audience aren't buying it. She will end up being a one-season flop. Her stories are inconsistent.

And her saying that Kenya posted underage photos of her is stupid. Dummy, Bravo would've never aired the episode if true, and Kenya would be fired instead of put on pause. They did an investigation. Clown. 

And I cannot with people dismissing the gun statement. I don't care how you said it. You said it! If you threaten my life, you don't get to tell me how far I can take it. And I am going to HELL if you threaten me.

^I agree with you both - Brit still sucks and Angela was the MVP of tonight's episode for sure.  Brit again said on WWHL tonight that she's never owned a pistol, but who says what she said if she didn't.  If true, then it's just weird.  It was weird how amped she got anyway that night.

Love hearing the SLC commentary/thoughts - glad you all loved it as much as we did.

My main problem with her is her lack of accountability. She is STILL doubling down on Kenya target=ting her from day one even despite seeing how crazy she looks on tv. I think she knows that if she admits that then its admitting she is at fault for how things went down.

Also interesting that no one on the current cast likes her besides Porsha and Cynthia. I already knew she fell out with Kelli and Shamea but the shade she threw at Drew and Angela confirmed that the same is true for those two as well

 

She said what she said bc she knows the Kenya haters would run with that. Despite this damage control she is doing, she is still out for revenge and is being strategic in her words to further bury Kenya. I wish our girl was smarter than to even give her the opportunity to do so.

And how the heck would Kenya get a private photo of her taken by her bf from 20 years ago? Nah, bish, if you are gonna to insinuate that then, you need to speak on it all the way

Yes!  I didn't realize she fell out with Kelli, but it was clear on WWHL tonight that she isn't friends with Kelli now.  I wonder when and what happens.  The more she isolates herself, the less likely she'll be coming back next season.

Speak on it. If you want to play so badly when you got the disclaimer...don't be surprised or fear tears when I gather, read, and drag you to where you want to go...over something YOU started I will clearly add. 

Yeah re: Angela. I knew. I just don't know why. Yet. 

Oh, yeah. I poked at that last week...Kelli being a good friend...and at some point it's going to come and bite her on the tail. She was better off staying ki-ki-ing with Kenya. Who I believe she's gone back to ki-king with off-screen. And coming for 50Cynt.

What if they time it with Monica's return?

    • OMG! Yes!! Best of the episode and double so after my rewatch. She got Anita ALL...THE...WAY...TOGETHER. I can't wait to get caught up and see Sharon.   Now you.  re: Samantha.   Same. I was so annoyed with Month 2 for stalling on Martin's Secret, but in hindsight...that was perfect because I got used to their characters and their lives so NOW I feel so much more invested when the Secret comes out. And how it's been done as a slow burn during May Sweeps with Bill toying with them keeps Bill in villain mode while giving organic conflict for Martin and Smitty due to what's been written for them building up to this month. Bonus...it's clear the actors are soooo much more comfortable with each other.    The one thing that I looove about Vernon is that while that is very much true what you said...when need be...he shows very brief moments of an edge. CHOOSE SILENCE...like BE STILL...lives rent free in my head. lol. I can't wait to use that on someone. 
    • The last thing I want on a new soap -- or on any soap -- is an actor thinking she's a kid in a candy store. I know Cady has plenty of fans, but I'm just not fond at all of all these accents (and accent changes) and tics. The show should INSIST she settle on a consistent character for Pamela -- now. The idea that these established soap actors get to play around like it's a game is bizarre. I don't like what she's doing at all, and the fact that I can't tell you what she's doing makes it even worse.   The hour does fly by, and I do enjoy the show. I'm no longer on a high with the show and screaming "I love this show!" though. That's not a bad thing. We can't forget we're still in the first 6 months and every soap had to deal with first-year struggles and changes. I'm willing to give GATES time on all of it. In the meantime, though, I have to call out the stuff that isn't working. Yo're exactly right about the editing. Those "sudden drop offs to commercial"? I hate them. I think they're awful and poorly executed in all phases -- the timing, the music, the fade itself. I have no idea what they're doing. I've said this before: I think it's intentional. It's not just one director, and it's clearly a production choice. I think they want to be "the different soap." Sorry, this ain't the place to do that. They have not only ruined scene endings galore with these fades, but they have ruined cliffhangers. Ending a show with something dramatic followed by an "Oh, well" fade makes no sense to me.
    • I'll say this much...for the most part...soaps WERE giving this Sweeps...LOL. I'm looking at you, BTG, DAYS, and YES GH.

          But knowing that, I really want to know...especially since I'm behind on at least two of those soaps lol due to work and faulty technology...how would you all grade May Sweeps this time?   A     B     C     D     F       To paraphrase Dani Dupree...the hottest level of Hades...?   How did you like Sweeps?    
    • 5-26   My system went down, but thankfully is back up. It's a shame that if I missed something, I just don't care. So May Sleeps indeed. smh.    That said...I found this episode intriguing. Yeah, it had a LOT of the characters that I didn't care about. And I know @slick jones probably glared seeing his man around that girl,

       but I will give credit where it's due.    It must be a sign there is about to FINALLY be story movement when we start to get artistic camera angles again...something that has been absent for a while. The overhead sweeping into the scene at the start of the episode? LOVE. Good to see Ed Scott is still around somewhere. And I loved what Phyllis had on and Amanda in the red. Claire continued to have her own style and Holden continued to look hot. And I continue to be in awe that the designer is trying her darnest to get Kyle from looking so stuffy but still keep him suited.    Everything Audra continued to intrigue. And I continue to feel that Kyle is totally going to fall into her trap because he is much too cocky. Holden is a great wild card, but I don't like him hinting that perhaps Audra actually have feelings for Kyle. THAT boat has sailed and would have been better used when Summer was around. Besides I love Audra with Nate.   Phyllis vs Sally will always be awesome. And they were both giving great lines.    I could care less for Billy.

    • -- I agree that the vibes are there, but I can also make the case that it's a pale imitation. That Neil Winters Lounge is already a pretty classy place, but the decor make it look tackier. Those Happy Birthday signs are tragic in design and color. The tablecloths look like they've been chosen by Helen Keller. Where is Claire? We hear stupid reasons for her lateness, but we all know it's because this show is too cheap to pay for too many actors in any one episode. It makes NO sense that Victoria has that toast to Nikki without Claire's presence. And where is Cole? Off coughing somewhere? -- The rest of the show was watching people open their black invitations from Alexander Dumas -- for a party on June 13...TWO WEEKS AWAY. So we got through the entire sweeps and still no Dumas? The big sweeps reveal is a party in France in 2 weeks??? Why anyone thinks this is good soap is beyond me.  
    • Chandler Massey smirked in EVERY scene in which he appeared. He's not a good actor. He cannot get into character, ever, and plays every scene like he's Chandler running into an old friend on the street. I hate it because actors should take their work seriously and respect it and everyone around them.   It's all so real, to the point where there's no sense trying to separate Drake from his character. I snarked a lot over the years about Drake Hogestyn's acting -- very arch, lots of tics, over-the-top at times -- but I also think he was a great soap star. There was so much humanity in everything he did, and he was always a comforting and stabilizing force on screen. Flashbacks on soaps are almost always special and fun, but does anyone come across as more loving and filled with humanity than John? I don't think so. DAYS has suffered a lot of loss in the past few years. For me, this one hits the hardest.
    • “I’m not a lifelong soap fan, but I sure am now,” Wolf tells PEOPLE about creating the documentary Soaps, which includes deep dives into the biggest and most successful soap operas in the industry, with a strong focus on The Bold and the Beautiful. “It reflects, in a broader way, the cultural significance of soap operas and the incredible task involved in bringing these stories to the screen every day.”
    • I have this for the 4th act on 11/9/88, which per my files, is the first time John and Stefano are in a scene together: Limo (Roman, Diana, Stefano, Milo) Then their second time together is 11/17/88 in the second-to-last act: ON LOCATION: Beach & Cliff (Diana, Roman, Stefano) I'd have to check the 2016 logs, so I don't know who shares scenes as easily in this year, but these are the last 4 episodes that John and Stefano were both in together: 1/8/16, 1/11/16, 3/1/16, 3/2/16.
    • I'm going to respond to you about this show. I've been accused of hating on it for some reason or another. But as a 53-year-old black man I do not hate this show at all. It heavily represents people like me, but I want it to be treated well and not just pushed with half-assedness, which is what I feel has happened on several occasions so far. Bad editing, bad cliffhangers, or no cliffhangers at all, disappearing characters with dropped storylines, etc. I can understand shows no longer wanting certain characters or  storylines, but why the "Judy Winslow" effect? I'm really finding it weird that Jacob doesn't mention his father or his detective partner. Jacob was smack dab in the middle of them both.
