I can't stop myself from wanting to know how these folks turned out: Emily -- married, two kids. Timmy Christian Devin Didn't find anything on Effie.

Lantern7, yes, we did. Mixed into the commercials between episodes 2 & 3. The Playboy Mansion party. I beg them to air the early challenges, they were my absolute favorites.

For those who might have missed the S1 marathon a few weeks back, my DVR is showing multiple episodes airing daytime this Thurs & Fri.

No, I want to see them in order! Don't mess this up, MTV Classic...

Because I can't watch without being curious as to their current lives... Relatively recent article on Mike Johnson. http://www.bizjournals.com/stlouis/print-edition/2013/04/26/st-louis-character-mike-johnson.html

Marathon airing 9/3/16 on MTV Classic. I realize many dislike this season but I loved it. They all came from such diverse interesting backgrounds. Plus, London!

So much this! Plus, Bethenny has been stewing ever since the reunion filmed, trying to spin and justify her behavior.

What was the de with the smashed lamp? On the beach no less. Bugged the crap out of me, the glass went everywhere. Amanda is so dim she deserves Josh.

Didn't he have back surgery awhile back? I feel like it'll likely be a combination of things, PTSD included. Maybe because I have a potty mouth too, but Kelly doesn't really bug me that much. I find myself far more irritated when Heather's on my screen. We get it, Terry's busy, now STFU about it.

I agree. Always thought that his moving down to San Diego and keeping his address private was a way of ensuring Vicki didn't out him on national TV. (small voice) I think Vicki looks really good this season and I loved the grey & yellow dress. (/small voice)

The fact that I remembered her full name scares me, but Belou is on Facebook. Squeee, so is Chris!

Agree with both,. If the video was the kiss, wouldn't they they review the tapes from all of her other visits and see the drug smuggling? If it included the smuggling, she'd have been charged. Made no sense. Finally, if she was so inexplicably drawn to Naz, where was she after the trial?

Isn't it queef? Jac also had her warpaint on at breakfast. I agree, the rest of women looked good au natural. While I understand that raising an autistic child can be challenging, I couldn't help but side eye Jac's tears. She has a way of demanding attention and doing something dramatic to get the focus back on her.

Yes, she asked Stephanie if she was biracial and Stephanie asked if it was because of her light skin. Mohammed explained to Cory that Stephanie's had to deal with that her whole life. Cory was good-hearted but I found to be so needy & whiny. I think that it was her voice. At the time, I thought she & Judd should date as they both annoyed the crap out of me.

I wonder if Rachel regrets her tattoo? So true. I found him completely annoying most of the time. Pam was/is fantastic, he's lucky. Mohammed was a cool cat, but I had completely forgot about his girlfriend being featured so much. Teared up a few times yesterday watching. So happy about the state of HIV/AIDS treatment today, so sad that Pedro (& Sean) didn't make it. Once again, I kept checking Twitter to see if any of the old cast members surfaced/acknowledged the marathon, only saw Judd. Anyone have updates on Cory, Jo, Mohammed?

Mine too, along with RR2. Add in the early All-Stars & RW/RR Challenges. I'm really hoping MTVClassic will show some of those. RR was my early travel porn before the days of House Hunters International. There are still places I want to go just from seeing them on RR.

I don't think it has anything to do with age or gender or whether you've been divorced. People have different expectations for their marriages/relationships. Society tends to view anything but monogamy as wrong. It's up to Luann to decide whether what Tom did bothers her enough to walk away from the relationship. Obviously, it wasn't. What I don't understand is why Luann is a bad person for this, or as Bethenny so eloquently put it, just a whore. I have friends that are in relationships that I would not enjoy, but they're happy, so it's not my place to get mad at them because they don't react like I would. IMO, Bethenny is far too invested in other peoples' business. However, the second someone comments on her, she goes off the rails. I'm so tired of the Bethenny show. Would love to see more of Ramona & Sonja dating, Carole doing whatever, Jules upcoming divorce, even John's dry cleaning business. Anything but Bethenny narrating, criticizing & judging. Castina -- your post was everything I'm thinking and more. Thank you!

I took it as now, 6 months of engagement later, she's more knowledgeable about his financial situation.

Luann not holding back. http://www.allaboutthetea.com/2016/08/24/luann-de-lesseps-says-bethenny-frankel-called-bartender-to-get-cheating-scoop-on-tom-bans-bethenny-from-wedding/

Watched the RW2 marathon over the weekend. Why did I remember Mark Long being one of the roommate interviews? Or did he interview to replace Puck in RW3? Once again, I yelled at the TV that she should pick anyone but Glen. Glen was a major tool. I always wondered why they weren't given an option for Irene's replacement. A couple things that struck me: being of similar age to the roommates, I did enjoy how they would shake hands when meeting. No big hugs or I love yous on the first night. So different that recent seasons. When did that change? I also forgot how the vast majority of the cast would already be living in the city. Both seasons 1 & 2 had only one roommate imported in. No wonder Jon felt so isolated, he knew no one outside of the house, while they all had established lives in LA.

It's almost better if he is guilty. Can you imagine him trying to assimilate back into his world if acquitted? The community is under attack, his parents are bankrupt, his mother doubts his innocence...and he is going to go back to college with his shaved head and prison tats? This show, while not perfectly executed, has successfully highlighted how a kids's life can truly go off the rails in one night.

That's what I noticed too, all the flannel and baggy jeans. My awesome figure years were wasted looking like a lumberjack. Yes, I've watched RR since the beginning, so this was like a trip back in time. SS1 musings; Los was a misogynistic asshole & Kit had that IT factor from the beginning. Was following Twitter during the marathon to see if any of the cast members surfaced. I'm dying to know where Los & Shelly are now. Someone did post that Alison is a Dr. in the San Diego area Her Bio Edited to add that RR2 is scheduled for 9/4! It appears they're going on order and will show them all. My fave is RR3. Can't wait!

To me, it boils down to this: if you're not willing to put your relationships on camera for discussion, then you have no right to comment on others. Both Bethenny & Ramona have clearly stated that they keep their dating lives off camera, yet they're both deeply critical/involved with the relationships of Luann & Dorinda. That's bullshit. Further, neither are well-meaning concerned friends. They're both petty ass bitter bitches that hate to see other people happy. Finally...again, in my book, while putting your business out there for public consumption on a reality TV show earns you the right to comment on your co-stars shit, it's still bad form to judge other relationships. It's truly up to the individuals involved. They make up the rules, the boundaries, the dealer breakers, People would be whole a lot happier if they expended their time & energy on finding their own version of a good relationship.

What even worse than watching Bethenny sit half naked reveling in her moment to crush luann's happiness, was Sonja's increasingly delusional memories of her time with Tom. She was going to meet his parents? Wait, that must've been on her yacht in the South of France with her diamond & fragrance businesses and the Nigerian football team. Ramona is so incredibly rude. I was hoping Dorinda was really going to lay into her. Hypocrite Bethenny scolding Dorinda for yelling? How rich coming from the shrieking harpie. And again, Carole surprises me with how well she navigates this trip. Friendly to everyone, that's how to be an adult. Edited to fix: yelling not telling

I missed that the delivery guy was Naz father too. I was so scared that the creepy hearse driver was going to show up. Plus, I didn't understand why she would go to the door without her money if she were expecting a food delivery.
