I just watched "Rocketman" and saw not-so-future Shep in Tate Donovan's depiction of a sleazy club owner. They gave Tate fake teeth that looked just like Shep's bad veneers!

I saw that, too and assumed the writer of the blog quoted him from the radio show he was on and was the ignorant one, not the "Dr." who works at Vanderpump Dogs. Surely he said "spayed and neuter" and the blogger wrote the transcript incorrectly. ETA: I have now listened to the audio and I'll be damned, the "Doctor" DID say "spade and neutering" (YIKES!) at first I thought it was a verbal fumble, as if he meant to say to be "spayed and neutered" but that doesn't make sense because he said neutering and why doesn't he use the apt term which in this case would simply be "for spaying" since he bottle fed this female dog? I'm not impressed with his "doctorate" now, which he bragged about achieving in nine months, but Vanderpump Dogs does great work in China and at home so I guess I'll get over it. During the audio program, Dr. John did NOT like Lisa Rinna referring to him as "Lisa's boy" as he repeatedly stated he is in his forties and is LVP's partner, not employee and yes he also reiterated he is a Doctor in International Business a zillion times, hahaha.

"Sessa said the timeline Teddi Mellencamp presented was inaccurate (like every Real Housewife, Sessa has the receipts). He said he signed location agreements on a Wednesday. Sessa then got word on Sunday that one of his dogs ended up at a kill shelter."Dr. John Sessa explaining Kemsley dog adoption timeline

I can hear LVP's voice with that "Effing Rinner" lol! I agree the card sounded obligatory in tone and yes, Lisa should have let it be! Anyone involved with dog rescue these days knows the rules are hard and clear, if the adoption doesn't work out you MUST return to the rescue shelter. For gosh sake's she has a relationship with LVP it would have been so easy to call and say the dog bit my kid (not sure I believe that, unless she means normal Puppy play nipping) and Vanderpump dogs would have taken the dog right back. I think Dorit is like a sociopath to do what she did and then to call Lisa the next day after she had already given the dog away was worthless! I suppose this is where Lisa dropped the ball she should have insisted on getting the contact info for the new adopter and having her staff follow up.

Hannah's sister looks like a younger Katie Holmes. Louie is gross and Hannah is way too cute to stick with him especially after he talked about something so private on camera. I can only wonder if they are so desperate to make the cut for next season that they are making up this whole "asexual" storyline and are in on it together but why pick a story line that is so intimate? If Hannah and Louis split other guys are going to wonder if she will be like that with them and that's not a fair assumption. Good for Catherine I wouldn't want a guys privates in my bathing suit either, EW! I do not see what she sees in Lyle. The whole relationship seems toxic on both sides. Just rip off the bandaid. I hope Hannah's best friend Robin is a cast mate next year.

Except when you name your baby "Saint" ;-)

Did we see Naomi's new nose in this episode? I forgot to pay attention again!

I had the same feeling like how ironic it was with the scripted murder mystery and then the scripted Bethenny/Carol feud. The fact that Page Six was told about it beforehand is a give-a-way. They both need better story lines so what better than a feud?

It's true, Facebook threads on our beach community are filled with locals complaining about over development without enough infrastructure to supply free flowing traffic. The topography of barrier islands isn't conducive to over development, either. There is usually only one way to get in and out for most of these barrier islands like Folly Beach, Isle of Palms, Kiawah, Edisto. But this is happening in other places, too. Most of the U.S. population lives on the coasts. I know a few people who have left the beach to go live in the mountains of North Carolina. To get into our beach town in high season it can take hours of queuing up and tempers run high. As for Katherine's call to the department store owner, who makes a call to a prospective employer while driving? What if you need details of past employment or other information during the call? Really, you couldn’t pull over for five minutes? Of course this is all producer manipulated and perhaps they wanted a change of scenery from Katherine’s apartment. I took a walking tour in downtown Charleston earlier this year and our very erudite and informed historian guide shocked us by telling us that the cobblestone on Chalmer’s street were laid down as recently at the 70’s. I can’t find a source online to confirm this, but am certain it must have had them in some era before that and then it was at one time paved over then replaced to bring back the charm. While Cameran's story of pregnant women shaking themselves in to labor on the cobblestones is charming, one should also keep in mind that one of many slave "marts" was also located on that street. It is now a museum and it is very important to recognize the fact that many of the wealthy ladies and gents of Charleston back in that day were wealthy due to being slaveowners.

Great minds, and you nailed it --it's the big tongue that causes the speech impediment. To think of that tongue coming at your for a kiss, GAH!

Austen has a weird mouth like his jaws are hinged like a muppet, I'm glad I didn't notice that open mouthed kiss, ew! He also has a bit of a speech impediment, which forgive me, is not sexy. I just can't believe the beautiful girls these less-than-average guys are hooking up with. Austen is unemployed and the new girl Victoria is beautiful and a Doctor of Optometry! It's true that the young men in Charleston know they are spoilt for choice. I recently asked a friend's thirty something son why he didn't have a girlfriend and he said with a big grin "Why would I commit to one? This is Charleston!" It is well known the women to men ratio is the the men's favor there. Regarding Pat's all men dinner-- I want to address the elephant in the room --err the Buddha in the room. Having lived in Asia for 10+ years, I really cannot believe that the "worldly and refined" Pat Altschul doesn't know that the Buddha is not a decoration! Would you put a large figure of Jesus Christ as your table centerpiece? Never. I get irked when people use Buddha images as decor --especially when they set them on the floor, NEVER DO THIS if you want to not offend your Buddhist friends. No, not even in your gardens, put them up on a pedestal or a large rock ledge, never on the ground. We don't put crucifixes on the floor or have cut off heads of Jesus mounted as decoration on sticks. I'm not even religious myself, but respect the icons of those that are. Ashley reminds me of a dim witted woman I once knew, she was shaped like a boy and got the big boob job and liked to show them off. The slim hips with the big boobs just looks off. Those vacant eyes, too. Ugh. I haven't seen someone sit in a sink doing their makeup since college days, it is so ridiculous, does she even clean it afterwards? Get a magnifying mirror, I have a small one for doing my eyes. Her jaw contouring looked unblended and horrible in that scene afterwards, too, so apparently it didn't help to be so close to the mirror. I don't blame Katherine for being upset about the "family picture" either. It was a touching scene and felt real as she teared up and she seemed to have actually reached Thomas' cold black heart as he genuinely looked remorseful. I don't think Katherine admitting in her talking head that she knows how to "manipulate" Thomas is going to work out well for her in the future. Girl, keep that to yourself! Does that manipulation include the "Same time next year" booty call that Thomas was referring to? I wish Katherine would quit mentioning her stretch marks. I know she was young when she had kids, but that's just life. If she keeps dwelling on it and tells potential boyfriends they will be looking for them, when I am quite sure she still has a beautiful body with or without stretch marks. It's like she blames Thomas for ruining her figure for other men and elicits no sympathy from me. Also that hair do that looks like a weird combover that is lacquered down on the back of her head needs attention. So Naomi got a nose job but we haven't seen the new nose thus far, I wonder how drastic the change will look when she re-appears with a new schnozz. The Yelp reviews for her parent's restaurant are mostly good but some say it's expensive and overhyped due to the show exposure. In the Craig and Austen running scene it was endearing to see them each talk to the dogs. They both need to quit skipping "leg day" at the gym though. I agree with Austen that creating a lower alcohol beer makes sense --I couldn't believe how many restaurants are serving the high alcohol craft beers back in Charleston--they pack a punch--we were at a restaurant and I declined an offer for a second one from our server because I was driving and she said "Oh, you can share it with your husband!" HUH? These beers are not your father's beer and definitely not suitable for driving after imbibing more than a couple.

Thanks Zoey's Mom for link to this photo! What a difference a nose job can make!

Isn't the alleged murder victim supposed to be Mary Tyler Moore's son, Richie Meeker Jr.? He was born in 1956 and had female roommates when he accidentally killed himself while cleaning his gun.

But Diana Ross IS still living...... I would actually say that is Diana Ross paying an homage to Billie Holiday that is definitely an iconic BH look--the iconic Diana Ross look is the long hair in my humble opinion

Did anyone else find it strange how Erika referred to her husband Tom as “Mr Girardi” to Mikey? I mean even if the assistant calls him that out of respect, why did Erika have to refer to him that way? If I was speaking to my husband's employee who referred to him as "Mr. Pickles" I would still call my husband by his first name in conversation....
