Lakewood27

This was a very hilarious episode! So many great moments. Sonja's TH where she discusses George freezing his sperm. It was a brief moment, but it's made extra funny because she's got like 4 drinks going. Lu Ann snorting when Sonja suggests betting $2 because that's what the old money crowd does. Poor Sonja. She hasn't been "old money" in almost 2 decades. Her betting style was totally nonsensical, as Carol mentioned. It's like investing in penny stocks and expecting to recoup millions. I am effing sick of Kristin's reaction "O" face. She does it ALL THE TIME. I don't need Aviva in my life. Or George. How was Ramona's foot-in-mouth parents faux pas, racist?? That confused me.

I was legit afraid for Kelly at the end of the Scary Island episodes. I wanted the producers to air-lift her out of there and check her into Bellevue. Even at her most insane, I only ever wanted to bitch slap Aviva, especially during the St. Barths episodes.

I really didn't care for this last episode. Was I supposed to find that funny? I was too disturbed by Louie dragging Pamela by the arm to laugh at her anger that even his attempted rape was a fail.

Me, too! I thought their lovers quarrel had something to do with the London episode where Kent forced Sue to cancel the Prince Charles interview after she had to do some "humiliating" things to get it. She seemed more curt and acerbic than usual when she was on the phone with him at the end of the episode.

Anyone who associates with Aviva on purpose (minus the Bravo paycheque incentive) is automatically suspect to me. And thus, Harry's charms are completely lost on me.

Kandi could splurge and hire a professional to plan her wedding in 5 weeks, but she'd rather let her friends do it. Just mentioning 'Party City' to me would have gotten Carmon a pink slip. She could splurge on custom couture for her bridal gown (Reco, you're not Jason Wu. Just, stop) or buy high end off-the-rack. But she'd rather throw the dice on a Fashion Show contestant, who is untested WRT the volume and complexity of the job, on such short notice. Instead of renting the San Diego Zoo to stand around and funk up your nuptials, why not put that cash toward the reception and bridal party attire?

To paraphrase Lenethia Leakes, I saw 3 women doing THE MOST for $2.50. Based on the First Look, I don't know if I can take a whole season on those raggedy twins and Type A Crazy, even if awesome Dina is back.

I think they're keeping Kandi's show under the RHoA umbrella because it's so hot right now. Why not just squeeze every last drop from the brand?

Did Mama Joyce repeatedly call Todd's mother a prostitute on TV?? WTH?

Regarding dog funeral attire, I love the fact that the HWs dressed in the spirit of the occasion. It was an OTT affair and sexy cocktail dresses and fascinators seemed appropriate. I really loved Heather, Carol, and Kristin's looks from head-to-toe. It's like Aviva heard "funeral" and took it seriously.

Sitting here watching this episode again, waiting for Kandi's show to start at 8. I can't help but laugh at Cynthia trying to control Bailey at Velvet's funeral. He seems to be saying "I didn't sign on for this. Unhand me, woman!"

If season 5 is any indication, Aviva doesn't really tend lose her shit until she's on vacation. I feel like she's saving her epic freak out for the cast trip. And if precious Reid can't be there to hold her hand, so much the better for us.

Hah! Me, too! I think that's why Porsha lost it and went crazy on Kenya. She saw her "friends" Nene, Kandi, and Phaedra ki-kiing it up when Kenya made the spelling comment.

I haven't seen them in over two decades now, but I used to really dislike the Paris episodes.

I don't hate Nene, but at some point you have to let go of your past and stop using your childhood as an excuse for behaving like an asshole. I'd say at nearly 50, it's time.

Yes, Tootie was always a favourite, but there were some episodes during the mushroom cut years that I cannot bear because she was just overly emotional and had to be talked off a ledge over the silliest things.

My sister and I still quote the line about the thermos. And we will sometimes end a sentence with "Tootie", just for giggles. There was a period when every other episode was Tootie having a colossal meltdown. The screeching was unbearable.

I feel like Nene's special WWHL interview was tacked on last year, too. And maybe even the season before. Isn't that where she intimated that Sheree should be fired? And not long after that one-on-one sitdown with Andy, Sheree was dropped. In the first half of the season, Nene kept repeating that it was necessary for all the ladies to be able to interact together in spite of their differences. Wasn't that the purpose of the "bunding" trip to Savannah? But now that Porsha seems ready and willing to go after Nene's "sworn enemy", while Cynthia would rather just make peace with Kenya, now it's Cynthia that has to go. The message seems to be that the only way to express loyalty and true allegiance to the Queen Bee is to throw fisteses.or completely freeze out the enemy. Seeing so many shades of Jill Zarin. And it's not a good look.
