  1. Idol wants a winner who can make them money, regardless of gender. Unfortunately, since Season 12, the only winner to have some measurable success is Chayce Beckham, who has a Platinum record. Is Julia someone who is actually marketable in the mainstream (we all know it's more about just singing ability) - or is Idol just exploiting her sob story - as they did with Iam. He was one of the most over pimped contestants ever. Yet he is the only winner to have never gotten a record deal. He was barely even shown on the premiere. Colin Stough got more camera time than him.
  2. I don't feel sorry for BRAVO at all. They created the mess by casting Leah and Eboni who made the show unwatchable. They should have just fired them - instead of a Reboot. The ratings for the Reboot ended up being worse than the last season of the OG RHONY. Has anyone noticed there has been no news whatsoever on a new season? It's not a good sign. OC and SLC are already into filming. ATL is making cast changes.
  3. J-Lo wasn't responsible for the old FOX show being cancelled. It was Time. The music industry had changed, along with technology. There was more competition with streaming, social media, YT, Tik-Tok. If Carrie was interested in being a judge, that would have happened way back. But she has no desire to be. She also doesn't live in L.A. She has young kids and I can't see her uprooting her family.
  4. Bad news for Gabby Barrett. Her 2nd album just released did not make the Billboard Top 200 album chart. This is a big plunge from her debut album. Billboard called it a "flop" and Rolling Stone said it's a "disastrous" performance. It's been noted that there wasn't a lot of promotion - which is usually not a good sign from the label. Her radio singles have languished - and she's never headline her own tour.
  5. Maybe Bad Reviews, but that's not the same has Bad Ratings - in terms of people who are in power positions for these shows.
  6. Yet the RATINGS had continued to be very solid with the OG cast. RHONY had 2 bad seasons with Leah and Eboni. But the reboot premiere had the worse of any HW debut - worse than Dubai - which was cancelled after 1 season. It's all over the media. No one wants to be associated with bad ratings.
  7. Ultimately, it's going to come down to Ratings. The premier of the Reboot was the Lowest ever for RHONY. I don't think BRAVO is done with the OGs. They got a huge payday for RHUGT, for basically going on a vacation for a week in St. Barts. Season 14 really should have been a hybrid version - bring back 4 from the original series, add 3 newcomers. Jenna Lyons is some one that would have been a better fit with the seasoned cast.
  8. RHONY was one of the best HW shows - until BRAVO cast joy kill Leah and Eboni and moved the show in a different direction - and alienated viewers. Instead of firing them, which was viewers' main complaint, they decided to do a complete recast - made up of social media influencers, PR, marketing, fashion types, who look and sound way too manufactured and rehearsed. This should not have been called RHONY Season 14.
  9. Only the season premiere episode brought in 1M viewers - due to the curious around Tamra's return. But it quickly eroded - because as viewers have said - she is dragging back the same tired nonsense that got her fired. The last recorded ratings were from July 5 - at 722k - a season low. https://tvdeets.com/ratings/the-real-housewives-of-orange-county/
  10. Zzzzzz. This is exactly why ratings are tanking - there is nothing going on. The cast, who is disjointed to begin, are grasping at anything - for a storyline to hold on to their orange. It's ridiculous that BRAVO decided to drag back Tamra and Heather, who were never A-list HW's. But decided to do a complete Reboot of RHONY, instead of firing Leah and Eboni, who made the show unwatchable.
  11. Everyone Returning for Season 14 of RHONJ; Filming Begins in August. https://www.instagram.com/p/CuXcqTcvT5q/
  12. I actually think Tamra is killing the show and turning off viewers with her manufactured pot-stirring - to create storylines - none of which is all that interesting to begin with. It's the same nonsense we've seen from her before. That's not how you keep a showing going. The best drama is organic, spontaneous, unexpected. Gina's right here.
  13. It's ridiculous to take one random comment on Tik-Tok and run with it as if was Bible. It makes no sense what-so-ever that someone like Tom Brady would have any interest in dating Kim Kardashian, who comes with A LOT of baggage. Which includes the Kardashian dysfunctional circus and a wacko ex-husband. Just look at the types of partners this family ends up with - losers, hanger-oners.
  14. Eileen Davidson still is. In terms of the original RH - BH, OC, NY, ATL, NJ, Caroline Manzo, Jacqueline Laurita, Joe and Melissa. Bobby and Jill Zarin definitely would have lasted. Over at Potomac, Karen Huger.
  15. That's the public image, persona that they wanted to present. But we don't know what truly goes on behind closed doors. Look at the dichotomy of the narrative that Erika and Tom Giraldi were initially putting out there - vs what was really going on. "Reality" TV is "Edited" TV.
