Surrealist

I'm one of the other ones. 🤣

I said this last week, but when Garcelle and Jennifer made the move to talk to the other ladies (who they know hate Sutton), I think something in Sutton clicked about what that meant. Holding friends accountable, and not blindly supporting them all the time, is one thing. But approaching your friend's enemies, and knowing those enemies really hate her, was a stupid move on their part. However noble their intentions. Not to mention, it made her look even worse, and gave the FFF much needed ammo. But it's still a "stir the pot" move, which is what this show thrives on anymore. Once they got to the Reunion, I think Sutton was over it, and kind of relieved that others were on the hot seat, instead of her. I'm not saying she should play mute, but I think she's taken some notes about this season. I'm still of the mindset that she should quit because she doesn't need this show, and it can ruin your rep and your friendships. 🤷🏻‍♀️

Oh shut up, Rinna. 🙄

The only thing I loved about this Reunion was when Andy visited each of their trailers before the show started. He poked fun at Dorit for her long-windedness before leaving hers.

Garcelle is my favorite HW, but I agree. That's something you have to be careful about saying when you'll be in front of a camera.

I think this is probably the biggest reason they saved their shit for now. They think Boz siding with them gives them the edge.

Everything the FFF brings up is something they've read on IG or over on Reddit. There's no way they don't have their fingers on the fans' pulses regarding what happens on the show.

This was a good statement on PK's part. I knew he wasn't going to be coming onto this Reunion show. Not after everything Dorit has been saying about him all season. Sutton was right when she said it seemed like Dorit was throwing him under the bus. I mean, that's an accurate observation to make. Whether Dorit is legit in her criticism of PK is another matter entirely. Since they're not yet divorced, she might be wise to keep quiet about him while things are being sorted out off screen.

No worries! Great minds and all. 😄

It definitely was. And I'm certainly looking forward to two more episodes of Boz explaining to us how she can't be conned into joining in on their bullshit because she's the smartest person in the room who's done all the research on this show. Her whole whatever she has going on with Keely has me permanently side eyeing her. She's another successful woman who seems to draw sketchy men into her orbit. I can see why she was drawn to Dorit. They both have the same problem when it comes to men.

I made the mistake of looking at the main HWs subreddit and they had a live discussion thread for this ep. (This isn't the same sub as the nightmare RHOBH sub.) I didn't disagree with every point, but I think I've figured something out about the fanbase. It has to do with the "these people are real friends" vs "none of these people are real friends" discussion. If you're in the latter camp, you can't get all up in arms when one cast member doesn't come out full force to defend another. If you say that they're only coworkers with a show alliance, then real friendship rules don't apply to them. If you're in the former camp, I get the frustration. The only thing I can say is that these women are watching the seasons unfold in the same way we do, so they're seeing THs they weren't aware of while filming, and then by the time the Reunion rolls around, their perspective on situations and on others has (at least, somewhat) changed since they were filming. I think this gets construed as someone being two-faced when, maybe, they didn't care for what someone said in the THs, so by the time the Reunion rolls around, they're like "Oh well. Not going to be getting involved anymore." 😂 Who knows though? I don't know any of these women in real life, and I'm guessing almost none of the other viewers do either, which makes the vitriolic comments about this show extra amusing. It's right up there with Denise trying to get producer's attention, during actual filming, and breaking down that fourth wall (permanently). 😂

And it seems as if Garcelle thought they should've been piling on Sutton instead. 😂 Which feels kind of like throwing your friend under the bus, despite the fact she's been getting shit on since she started on the show. They'll get to Sutton in the next couple of episodes while twisting any criticism of themselves and lobbing that back in the direction from which it came. It's clear the FFF wants a show that's entirely about them, and one in which no one questions anything about them. This shit happens in every Reunion.

Jennifer Tilly is the New Harry Hamlin. 🤣

I found it interesting that Garcelle walks away, during the break, saying that she was expecting Sutton to be in the "hot seat" instead of her. Almost seemed annoyed by it, tbh. We all know these Reunion shows run, at least, three episodes. I've no doubt Sutton's time in the "hot seat" will be soon enough.

Weird that Dorit is all up in arms about Garcelle's opinion of the break-in, even though PK has long since been over the whole thing. And he's her husband! I'd be more concerned with his reaction.

She's gotta make everything about her. Exactly. She's trying to be slick about what she's actually shown over the years.

I see Erika thinks Garcelle is boring. Interesting in that's the way I feel that way about her.

I see Sutton is doing commercials now.

Thank you for starting the thread!

It's also interesting that Rinna kind of wound up that way because her childhood seems to have been fine. Although I'm remembering that it seemed she left Oregon as soon as she hit 18. That could mean all sorts of things. I think her older sister's death was a black cloud over the family for many years, and maybe that's the reason she bolted shortly after high school. That's not an excuse, but sometimes I wonder if certain traumas/situations leave an indelible mark on some people that never fully heals. Who knows.

The therapist had that look of "get me out of here" when Erika asked her how one can get empathy.

What's that old saying? If you marry for money, you'll earn every penny. I'd be curious to know if Tom had been cheating on Erika for their entire marriage. I'd be willing to bet he had. So much for her braggadocio.

For once, reading the comments isn't a frightening experience. 🤣

That was the True Erika Jayne reveal moment. I can still see that scene in my head. She's genuinely a terrible person.

Ah, OK. I misunderstood you. But that 2-part series was something else. Whew!
