Basketball Wives on VH1

Anyone watching this reality show on VH1? Its like Real Housewives but focuses exclusively on wives and former girlfriends of NBA players. The cast is based around Miami. Its currently in its 2nd season and a guilty pleasure. Just caught up with the first 2 episodes and this season looks to be even better than last.

I cant stand Suzie. Im so glad Evelyn is done with her and realizes what a snake she is. For most of last season she would instigate drama but now she's at the center of it. I wish she would have been dropped but at least she's been kicked out of the circle

I also hate Gloria. She talked so much sh-t last season and said she wouldn't be on this season and acted like she was too good for it, yet her she is appearing on the show. Next week's confrontation looks good and I hope the ladies call her out on her crap

My favorite is Royce. She got a bad rap before but she's not that bad a person. I also love Shaunie and now she carries herself. I have no use for Jennifer. She comes across very insecure and pathetic at times. I dont get that she's in love with her husband and doesnt want to be married to him. I think its more about her not wanting to get divorced that keeps her there.

But of course one of the best new additions this time around is Tami from the Real World. Based on the previews, girl is gonna get ghetto on the other women and it looks as if she hasnt changed much as she is still bringing the drama. Should be fun

I saw a clip on AOL with Tami crying because her ex finally apologized. Admittedly, I kinda judged her and thought, "Of COURSE Tami nabbed herself a basketball player. :rolleyes: $$$" It's been a lot of years so maybe it's time to give her a second chance but man I could not STAND her and Beth and Irene on TRW during and after that whole David-drags-her-in-her-panties thing. "It WASN'T! NOT! FUNNY!"

It came back last week and did not dissapoint! I didnt expect to see Shaunie be so nasty and bitchy. That was a shock bc she stayed out of the drama last season btu she took her claws out now. Gloria deserved them ganging up on her though bc she's still a stank bitch. Love Royce for setting this all up...lol

As much as I dislike Suzie and dont mind seeing her being crapped on, Evelyn needs to move on already. She looks stupid threatening to beat Suzie's ass everytime she sees her. She doesnt have to be her friend, but she does needs to start acting civil around her, especially in public. The way she carried herself at Royce's lunch meeting was appaling.

I dont know if I should feel sorry for Jennifer or sick with her. She tells Eric that maybe its time they end their marriage and go their seperate ways and he tells her fine, go get a lawyer and she can keep the house they were in bc he doesnt want it. She then tells him, no, bc they need time to tink and work things out. I knew she wasnt going to do anything. She just wanted to see his reaction and he didnt beg her to stay. He was ready to throw her out, yet she stayed

No Tami this show but she is on next and looks to get into a fight

P.S. I had no idea there was a spinoff called Football Wives. I watched it all during the 2 week break. Man I hate that they had this bc I still had hope that the UK soap would eventaully make its way over here. I guess they could call it Footballers Wives like the original and not Football Wives like the failed pilot

"Somewhere along the line, I felt like I heard the word bitch?"

Tami: "Did you just call me, bitch?"

Tami: "Booji bitch. Im gonna get some f--kin t-shirts that say booji ass bitch"

LMAO! She's a drunken ghetto mess

The season finale was this week and OMG. Evelyne is one foul ass bitch. Team Tami! I was shocked when Evelyn revealed the secret that she dated and slept with Tami's ex husband for 6 months, while they were married. I was on Tami's side for wanting to kick her ass especially when she said Tami was a non-factor and called her a bitch. Ev is so shady and doesnt even realize or rather not care for what she did

Wow I never watch this show, but just stumbled into this thread - and WOW I'm so sad for Tami and how she turned out. She has gained weight, has alcohol problems, looks like she might have done drugs, and lost all credibility from her Real World days. SAD!

Of course I'm just basing this off what I saw from the Food Stamps video. haha

OMG, If you guys didbnt see the reunion, you need to check it out bc it was GOOD! Prbably oen of the best reunions of any reality show. The women were not holding back. I loved when

Tami said: "At this moment, I have to honestly say, I dont know if I can be in her space"

Ev: "And at this moment, I vsn say that I really dont give a sh-t"

Tami: "So then I dont have to tell you that I f--ked Chad" (Ochocinco, Ev's fiance)

OUCH! That was SUCH a great moment

Check out the episode here: http://www.vh1.com/video/basketball-wives-2/full-episodes/reunion-part-1/1659523/playlist.jhtml

I looked at at the season finale from the links and BW is a great show. All the dynamics are there so I'm surprised it's so low key. I wonder if the show was on BRAVO if it would have done better ratings wise. Some of the zingers were hilarious but dang, Evelyn is ghe-tto! She's a skanky hood rat and she ain't all that either. She just looks nasty. I think Royce is really pretty and so is Jennifer. I love her weave. She needs to hook me up with her stylist. Tami cleaned up really well. During the clips she looked broke and tore up but in the finale she looked cute. And Shaunie seems so reserved especially being the creator(?) of the show. TMZ reported they were looking to replace Royce with Chris Bosch's girlfriend, lol. I like Royce so I'm glad she stayed.

Cheap, when does the next season debut?

    • 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).
