I cannot wait to watch. I feel kind of protective of Adriana (even though I think she really did say 'ratchet') because Marysol is gunning for her so hard. Lest we forget, Marysol kind of ran Nicole off the show, or at least Nicole alluded to her machinations being a factor. IMO, Adriana and Kiki are long overdue a mojito on this show.

And not just Nicole. 

 

Lea Black. Ana.

 

lol. But I think you will like the finale.

I'll be curious to read your thoughts! I enjoyed the finale, but honestly, i was disappointed in Adriana. And you know that I am ride-or-die for Adriana, since S1. Certainly throughout this season, I've been firmly on her side. The boo-hooing about not attending Julia's 'concert'? Yeah, no, Adriana could not send home a 12-person band just to accommodate Julia's caterwauling.

However, i did think that Adriana was a total Bridezilla at Stephanie's event. She was doing too much. And when she told Julia "I'm not their godmother," I understood why she didn't go to the opera event. She is smarting because Julia has pulled away. And it's always heartbreaking to be in a situation like that because it feels like a rejection of everything you are.

However, I also believe Julia when she says she couldn't handle the anger from Adriana and the pressure about getting Adriana her mojito back. I believe all that to be true. It must also be challenging to be friends with someone who struggles with dark, angry moments. As I believe Adriana has gone through. Julia is simply not someone who can deal with that, perhaps because of her own sad history.

It struck me at that moment how alike Marysol and Adriana are in some ways. They are both leaning on their best friends to bring them back full-time on RHOM. The difference is, Marysol is sneakier and more artful about it. She knows how to subtly handle Alexia, her longtime BFF, who is a lot like a sister now. Adriana, by contrast, is an explosive volcano.

Those are my thoughts from a first watch. I'm ready to hear another opinion on this, though. Honestly, I did not expect to feel like this after this season of being firmly on Adriana's side.

LONDON

Another winner of an episode. Do not miss this one folks.

Juliet 'Back to Paddington' Angus showed she has not changed a bit when she recounted her confrontation with Amanda to her husband, choosing her words carefully and gilding the lily to cast herself as the victim. 

Karen is fabulous and I love that she exploded at Panthea when she tried some crap with her.

Panthea thinks she's way interesting than she actually is. Her domineering, vain, mother, Shalla June, on the other hand, is a star.

Nessie is a trad wife and her home life seems super ideal. Her children are adorable. 

Australian Juliet's meeting with Amanda was uncomfortable because she is sticking up for Juliet 'Back to Paddington' Angus way too hard. 

MIAMI

It's like Adriana self destructed this episode with that performance at the party. That "I Love My Dog" song was insanity! Although I don't like that Adriana said 'ratchet' to Kiki, I also did not like that Marysol is gunning for her so hard. Meanwhile, Julia's singing is torture. She is tone deaf and so impressed with herself. It's totally cringe. 

Loved the open house for Alexia and Frankie's Beauty Bar. Alexia is so devoted to Frankie, who is such a delightful soul, I wish them both so well, whatever happens with Todd.

I'm curious about how the reunion is going to unfold because the editing of it makes it look explosive and like there are some actions taking place that we cannot come back from. 

OC

Gretchen has fumbled her return so badly and I don't see any point in her returning next season. This recording booth storyline is ridiculous and gross.

For the first time in my 19 years of watching this show, I am firmly on Tamra's side when it comes to Gretchen. This whole affair thing is so gross and so outdated and makes Gretchen look 1) stupid (which she is); and 2) bitter (which she is), and 3) fixated on the past (which she is).

I also put a lot of blame on Slade who should have declined to be on camera and just stayed out of it. 

Emily is a big flip flopper and sh*t disturber though. Gretchen called that right.

It’s incredible, I never thought I’d ever be Team Tamra over Gretchen, but Gretchen f.ucking pulled it off 🤦🏽‍♂️. I’m starting to think the only past housewife on OC that should be brought back is Vicki. Alexis and Gretchen have been total flops.

I definitely want Vicki back for next season, the landmark 20th...but I also want Jeana Keough back as she's long been a favourite of mine and she could get under Tamra's skin and was not afraid of her in the slightest. Who could forget Tamra's 'Cyst and Deceased' letter to Jeana?

Gretchen is a flop and can go back to 'Liking' transphobic social media posts. It is amazing how without Katie being there for everyone to hate, Gretchen made a total fool of herself in the span of two episodes.  

I have to check out London. I'm in mood for some elitist bishes. 

SLC

 

A return to form.

 

I didn't like the premiere. To me, I felt it was off even though it had its moments. This episode though, the show really got going. It had funny moments. It had real moments. And of course, Lisa was back so we got a confrontation...that blew up in her face. 

 

HEATHER. This stupid Pick-Me. lol. That said...I thought it was very interesting that she was shading Lisa in her Confessionals. Could she be doing to Lisa what she did to Jen when she started to set up her exit strategy seasons ahead of Jen's leaving? Time will tell. I am just so over her...like I used to be over Little Girl. I mean she ran to Lisa and basically tattletaled and left out anyone (Britini, Meredith) who also tried to defend Lisa, BUT her. GIRL, BYE.

 

MEREDITH. Well...she tried for a moment during Lisa vs Bob. It just fell flat. But I'm used to Meredith not doing much at the start of seasons. On the good side...SETH!!!

 

WHITNEY. Ikr. Me using her actual name.  But I have liked so far how she has been transparent about her business dealings this year. And you know I was living for her living as Bob destroyed Lisa.

 

MARY. Honestly, I found her scenes with her son hard to watch. Really hard. I do like that Mary does keep it real and always will. But it was so heartbreaking.

 

ANGIE K. I respect that she's trying to keep the peace with Lisa. For now. 

 

LISA. Clearly, she has fallen foul of Production. The fact Production allowed last week's scenes of the ladies gossiping about her to see the light of day. The early scenes in this episode of Whit and Angie K talking about the lawsuits. Them very quickly having ALL the court receipts. That one receipt about her benefactor that dates all the way back to Season 2/3. Doing the trailer to make it look like Lisa dragged Bob when actually Bob gathered Lisa ALL...THE...WAY...TOGETHER. LOVE. At least she had that good moment of looking fierce with John before she arrived at the event.

 

BOB. QUEEN. Looked like a queen. Dragged like a queen. Drank that champagne after sending Lisa spiraling like a queen. My only issue with her was her even sitting down with Heather. Heather has never liked her and continued to do so on the trip and to her face. As soon as Heather got that info, she ran and tattled to Lisa. Bob, Heather ain't your friend. 

 

BRITINI. Lord...not Jared.  I swear, I live for her delusion now. And look at her being all slick and sliding into frame at the event. And her pot stirring with Angie K, Lisa, and that Jen Shah comparison to get it popping was superb. She's learning.  

 

Can't wait for tonight.

Love the entire review! ❤️ I also can't wait! Counting the hours. 

LONDON

Another A+ episode.

The first half of the episode follow the women in various London locales. 

Dorinda makes a fabulous return for lunch with her friend of 20+ years, Caroline. They have a gossipy girls lunch and it's clear they are longtime friends who have been there, done that, and bought the T shirt.

Karen displayed a quiet strength in discussing her sister's death.

The, the ladies all head to Scotland by private jet to stay at a castle hotel that Australian Juliet is a part owner of. 

It was lighthearted in tone with everyone playing along with the outdoor Highland Games until the dinner when Juliet 'Back to Paddington' Angus tussled with Amanda. So wild and hilarious and petty.

TAGLINES!!!!

 

The #RHOSLC taglines are here! Which one is your fave? pic.twitter.com/YnVMTR4lDA

My faves are Bob, Angie K, Mary, and Lisa actually. Nice to see some newness to it.

 

Has anyone else seen the first 6 minutes of the Potomac premiere? Karen's release from prison is what starts the season, and then it rewinds to Gizelle hosting a coffee time with the other ladies to take about Karen's conviction.

I know that and other teasers (K vs Wendy) is out there, but I'm trying to wait. 

 

That said...like I said before...Karen is totally going to be in the midseason trailer. They are setting it up so smooth.

These are SO good! My favorites are Angie and Mary's. 

The last 10-15 minutes of SLC were absolutely insane. 
 

The taglines are so camp I love them.

Now you all didn't tell me Season 5 Whit was going to make an appearance. You all know I love THAT version of Whitney!!!
