  1. But Katie didn't yell at anyone. I've heard similar reactions towards Katie on a couple of podcasts and I don't get it. Schwartz exposed a decade-old hurtful secret in order to set up another scenario where he can accuse Katie of being "unreasonable". Scheana is once again trying to spin this (and involving her husband in said spin) because she doesn't want to be exposed for actively trying to ice Katie out for years (from inviting only Schwartz to her events to playing along with the Raquel charade) , crying that she is once again an unwitting victim. I understand Katie has more than a few haters but she didn't go off on anyone - she was understandably hurt by the information Schwartz gleefully offered on-camera and it showed. I don't get how she's the monster here.
  2. I think they all meet at upfronts. Season one Aleks had made a VPR appearance years ago with Kristen. And now they all have that ghastly Bravocon. I feel like I'm taking crazy pills watching this show. Jo is taking a page right out of Raquel's book - pretending to be the nice one and acting wide-eyed when no one accepts her. Scheana & Schwartz both enjoyed humiliating Katie through the years - keep in mind the Vegas incident was around the time Scheana started the false motorboating rumor - and now that they've outed a decade-old secret Scheana is trying to sell it as assault (when she's not busy acting like she didn't put Brock up to whatever nonsense he was trying to pull last night). The less said about Sandoval's faux-humble approach at Ariana to magnanimously offer her money he doesn't have, the better. Please note that all of the subjects above have absolutely nothing to do with Lala but that doesn't keep her from being on the wrong side of history on all of it. My take on the entire show is the cast knows the Vanderpump Rules model is done - the real friendships are long gone and the Toms "brand" is no longer a positive for the restaurants involved. Sandoval, Scheana and Lala are looking to move to The Valley (and its one of several reasons Tom doesn't want to sell).
  3. Nicole and guests are making their feelings quite clear this afternoon.
  4. I need Evil Lives Here to give more background. I understand we're hearing the victim's POV, that Elishaba's communication was limited through most of her life and her family members may not want to discuss their own abuse on a television show. But we did not hear about Papa Pilgim's crimes outside of the family and I need to know more because apparently he was questioned about the death of his first wife - who happened to be former governor John Connally's daughter - when she died of a gunshot wound 2 months into their marriage. The FBI also reported Hale had broken into the home of Judith Exner (allegedly this may have been due to Hale's father trying to blackmail JFK for a defense contract). I know it's the ID channel but like I said - I need a little bit more. Googling all night before work on Monday is exhausting.
  5. Kyle and Mauricio are pretty shrewd - I think Kyle peppered her season with Morgan to get the audience talking as a lead-in to Mauricio's real estate show. I've always felt this situation mirrored that of another couple (that I also have no personal knowledge of 🤣) - Ramona and Mario. I think Ramona turned a blind eye until Mario's behavior became too obvious. Reddit et al have posted screenshots of the full text Kyle sent to Dorit before the reunion. Kyle says she can't reveal her source for information (production) and Dorit says she feels manipulated. Considering these two solidified their alliance with Puppygate I find both their claims laughable.
  6. I watched Evil Lives Here this weekend. I had seen Brook on Shattered and was a bit frustrated for her. According to reports during the trial, Lori spoke favorably of her ex-husband and expressed shock when she was told about the crimes. I would have liked to seen that addressed (as well as how Simmons was able to install tape recorders throughout his ex's residence or why Lori's other ex didn't go to the police after he took pictures of his children's injuries). I had some issues with Lori by the time the episode was over.
  7. I mean...it's not like there aren't a plethora of more apt and less offensive comparisons (Anthony Weiner? Arnold Schwarzenegger? Jax Taylor?). But of course Tom says the dumbest, most insensitive thing ever.
  8. I feel I have to respond here that I hope those of us who are expressing...skepticism towards Scheana don't sound dismissive of what you live with. I can't speak for everyone here but to me Scheana's description of OCD is sounding remarkably similar to BH Dorit's PTSD. I know we all respond differently, but Scheana has spent a significant amount of time travelling without her daughter. She's previously shaded Lala for having nurses and nannies (during the Randall era), implying Lala had it 'easier', not that Scheana was incapable of leaving Summer Moon (tm) in someone else's care. But the bridge too far is that Tori, who we were introduced to last night as the new "nanny" tl:dr: I believe post-partum conditions and OCD are real. It's Scheana who I think is fake.
  9. Seriously. Ann may turn this show into a Dateline episode before the season is over. I have heard and read about some postpartum conditions that are heartbreaking. Which is why I cannot listen to Scheana tonight.
  10. That's true - we have not heard Annemarie identify herself as a doctor on-camera, however Bravo's press releases referred to her as an anesthesiologist. She did not mention she was a nurse to Sutton and Crystal and at least one medical association has accused Annemarie of misrepresenting her education and training. My biggest issue with Annemarie is that she is a medical professional who has aggressively challenged (to various people as well as a television audience) the condition of someone she's never treated. Granted, we only know of her what we see on TV but I've been treated by a lot of nurses and Annemarie does not seem capable of their discretion or compassion.
  11. Different times? Kyle got married in CA in the 80's, not Japan in the 17th century. At no time in history has 24 been considered "child bride" status and the age of the spouse has bearing here. Also, it is not racist to call a woman who fraudulently claims to be a doctor a fraud.
  12. I think it was his half-sister who had been given up for adoption. I'm not sure how much time she spent getting to know her birth mother and Scott after meeting them as an adult, but some of the stories she told about Scott's demeanor after Laci disappeared are in line with everything we've heard over the past two decades. Scott's SIL is basically a yarn wall of Peterson's innocence. My personal theory is she is trying to absolve her husband of any wrongdoing since it was his ID Scott was using on his failed trip out of the country. I'm also shocked the Innocence Project is taking this case.
  13. Anyone else think JT's ex-wife might have an opinion about his declarations of being a "real man"?
  14. Lordy JT is even more insufferable this week.
  15. Although Andrea did a good job interviewing Nick, I felt a different correspondent might have pulled more information from Corey about her son. The combination of secret wedding and handing a teenager $30k to day trade that they could not pay back would irk most parents. It was hard to believe Corey didn't pick up on anything suspicious when Nick and his awful wife were living with her. Also, WTH with the oddball neighbor hiring Nick as a PI?
