Married to Medicine

Well, Mariah is still going to be there. Remember she was in the COMING UP clip at the start of Episode 1, going off on them for even trying to THINK they can exclude her at some dinner party coming up.

Has Quad always acted like a drag queen? I finally decided to give this show a shot, but its painful for me to listen to her speak. Her husband and Lisa Nicole's husband both appear to be closet clases.

[Eric83]

Yes she has. LOL

[Cheap21]

Bravo must be regretting that they let Mariah go

[Antoyne]

Didn't they usually have an Atlanta lead in as well?

[Cheap21]

Yep. I don't know why they held off on it this year

[Taoboi]

But Mariah IS STILL THERE.

For all we know, she will be used like how they have been using LuAnn, Cherokee, and Lizzie on their non-lead roles.

And yes, ATL was usually the lead in.

I don't see Mariah being used in the same capacity as a recurring housewife. Don't forget, M2M is a whole different beast. Furthermore, Mariah doesn't even have a profile on Bravo's site. Every recurring wife that plays a pivotal role in story for that season always has a profile. I see Mariah getting a good 4-5 episodes this entire season before they toss her aside.

[Cheap21]

But she's not. 3 episodes in and no Mariah. And as expected the ratings have dropped week to week. When she appears it may get a boost but she has not been a part of this season yet. Love or hate her but she was the star and her absence is felt

[Taoboi]

NBA, did Ford Bronco and LuAnn have profiles during their non-HW seasons?

Cheap, you know you have to wait and see. Was I the only person that Mariah in the coming up on M2M at the start of Episode 1?

[NothinButAttitude]

Yep. And Lizzie currently has one for RHOC. Only "friend" that's ever played a pivotal role on a housewife season and never given a profile was Marlo back in s4 of RHOA, and that says something.

[Cheap21]

No you werent and we all know she will appear. Im saying as of now she is NOT in any of the episodes and as a result that is playing a part in the ratings decline.

[Taoboi]

I stand corrected. Though I could have sworn Marlo had one at one point.

Well when you say it like that, does that mean that Mariah will get a promo she's in it like Marlo got in Season 6 RHoA

[alwaysAMC]

When did Mariah have her miscarriage? I wonder if that had anything to do with the timing and not being a full cast member this season.

[NothinButAttitude]

She had it during them filming the season but that had no part in her being a full cast member. Seems like production was always going to phase Mariah out regardless.
