Andy's attitude is really solidifying for me that I need to just stop watching these shows. Not that it makes a difference to him; the fact that this guy enjoys throwing toxicity like Rinna at our televisions--thrives on it, actually--grosses me out. I know it's not a new thing but his statements about Rinna are just the nail in the coffin. RHOBH was the last Bravo show I was watching, so it's not a huge loss.

I had the same reaction. She ELEVATED the show? Is up down now??

It looks like all the comments on her recent IG post are positive. I'm sure she has her fans, but 5000+ AFFIRMATIVE comments? Come on. Methinks that someone's hitting that "delete" button.

I opened this thinking it might be about Pamela, the novel from the 1700’s. Boy was I wrong. 🤣

$25??? First off, as a point of comparison, LVP’s rose goes for about $17 around here. It’s a good, solid Provençal rose. I’ve purchased it a few times because I like it (and I’m a fan of Provençal roses). Secondly: Whispering Angel, the rose that was all the rage a few years back, is under $20. Cheaper if you can find it at Trader Joe’s. (Plus there’s a sister label that’s even a few bucks cheaper, but still good—good enough for me to purchase a few bottles.) I get that sparkling wine is not the same as what I’ve listed above. But again, as a point of comparison, there are many many sparkling brut roses that are EXCELLENT with actual name recognition that go for about the same price. I can’t imagine the market for this—at least outside the world of Housewives watchers. At least LVP is a restaurateur; Rinna just seems to slap her name on anything and everything in the name of competitiveness and making a quick buck.

That is the ONLY circumstance in which I would welcome back Brandi 🤣🤣🤣

They should do a Real Housewives Runway starring all the one-and-dones, former non-current "friends of," and anyone not named Brandi or Carlton. Weekly competitions for making it to the next round. And Heidi Klum on hand to say "In reality, you are a star, but in Housewives, you are one and you are done. Goodbye." I'd watch the heck outta that.

I'll be honest: I can't wait until all these people are held accountable, and to read the inevitable book that comes out about all of it--especially if proceeds go to the victims these creeps stole from. It's so horrible, it sounds like fiction; and sadly it's anything but.

Taylor will make a better OC housewife than, say, Heather would make a BH one. https://radaronline.com/p/heather-dubrow-rhoc-desperate-to-join-real-housewives-beverly-hills-orange-county/

Barf. "Garcelle and I are friends!!!!!" (A desperate ladder-climbing housewife says what?) My guess Is that if she joined, she'd try to bully Sutton and befriend Rinna, all while appointing herself the mediator between Garcelle and the rest. Because they've been "friends" for so long. No. Thanks.

Thanks for sharing this! Rinna seems to like to shoot herself in the foot and then blame someone else for firing. Is there a diagnosis in Harry Hamlin's 40-year-old copy of the DSM for that?

Right--I was going to say, someone being liberal (and vocal about it) in Hollywood or fashion is hardly a hot take. It's what she did afterwards, insulting the customers, that did it.

Kim calls him that because he's a joker, he's a smoker, he's a midnight toker.

Someone on Twitter just called her “Rinocchio” and I had to suppress my laughter at work. I’ve never seen that before so apologies if that’s old 🤣🤣🤣

I think we will keep going in circles about this, until this dude shows up.

I guess “the Econoline” or “the Grand Caravan” just wouldn’t have the right ring to it, LOL…

Yeah! She said she was all done as of the filming of the reunion. 🙄🙄🙄 Well yeah! If they all got fired, who would she scream at, toss glasses at, exaggerate about, deflect to…

That… …Depends.

The first time I saw this, I somehow missed the stain on the seat and thought someone was making a joke about her spray tan turning the PILLOW orange 🤣🤣🤣 LOL, the second I read your comment, “On Display” popped into my head. Now I’ve got “XXXPENSIVE” bopping around in there. Serves me right for bringing up the singing 🤣

I didn’t start out as a fan of Garcelle’s reunion look, but as time went on, I thought it was perfect—she had an intimidating look to her that matched her facial expressions so so well. Even Sutton’s kinda grew on me. Not that I’d choose to wear either myself, but at least they weren’t Kyle, Erika, or Dorit’s looks. Or Rinna’s for that matter.

I’m normally no fan of Andy’s, but I did appreciate his nonchalance about Kathy promoting her tequila. He was pretty much like, “so you wanted to promote your tequila *shrug*” And he may as well because we as viewers have had to endure the shilling of all manner of crap, from Ageless by Ramona to She by Sheree to Those Meals Shannon Sells to CUT Fitness to Erika Hair Extensions to Countess’ Singing Career to Rinna’s Definitely Not a Kylie Ripoff Lip Kits and on and on ad nauseam. At least the tequila is in, like, actual stores.

…And again, all those side conversations and stage whispers about “they’re gonna blame US!” said with a tone of feigned disbelief…

I also loved Garcelle saying “if it’s between the sisters, why is Rinna getting involved?” Because it was rich of Rinna to say she was backing off RIGHT THEN AND THERE.

I’m betting that just about none of us would disagree that Kathy did SOMETHING pretty awful—she admitted as much. But I can’t use that to conclude she was guilty of everything Rinna and Erika were putting on her plate. In Kathy’s eyes I saw genuine anger, and in Rinna’s eyes and voice I saw massive deflection. In Erika’s I saw her standard stoniness and attempts to downplay her own guilt. Both trained themselves to deflect, deflect, deflect. My take on Erika being quiet, and Rinna being relatively controlled and INCREDIBLY deflective, is that they’re both covering for each other. The cameras keep “catching” they saying “we’re going to get blamed for this! They’re gonna blame us!” etc, so they’re theatrically making some kind of deal about absolving themselves for the blame for the fallout of how this played out, which they VERY WELL KNOW is their doing. Again, if they’d taken this straight to the sisters, it wouldn’t have turned into this drama. (Maybe another kind of drama, but not this one.)

Geez, between Erika’s sharp legal mind and the incredible psychological insight of Hamlin, Rinna, and the 40-year-old copy of the DSM, we’ve got ourselves a real expert panel here.
