Especially if she is leaving the show, or has been booted. With the insularity that wealth provides, she doesn't care what anyone thinks about her. Erika doesn't care about anyone's kids, but she does care about keeping her position on the show (for the income and as a PR mouthpiece).

Ramona Singer: The Turtle Time Walk of Shame
pasdetrois replied to Lisin's topic in The Real Housewives Of New York City
If for no other reason than she poops in hotel rooms and doesn't clean it up herself, I'm glad she's gone. Not to mention how she treats staff everywhere she goes. I hope to never hear of her again. -
Real Housewives in the Media
pasdetrois replied to Lisin's topic in The Real Housewives Of New York City
According to the post, Bravo has fired all of the NY housewives, with some but not all going to the "legacy" (tired old broads) show. I did not know they had all been fired from RHoNYC> -
Erika Girardi/Erika Jayne: Let them eat cake
pasdetrois replied to ryebread's topic in The Real Housewives Of Beverly Hills
The contents of the Girardis' Pasadena home is up for auction on Sept. 21. Proceeds go to Tom's bankruptcy. Biggest ticket item is a grand piano valued at $40K. I believe they already found a buyer for the property, originally listed at $16M and sold for $8M I think. They may have taken a loss on the home if they poured millions into renovations over time. -
Tasha gave a master class in manipulation and gaslighting when she was speaking privately to Dave. I did not remember that Courtney is such a skilled deck hand. Is she more experienced than Storm? I'm embarrassed for Kyle, acting like an unprofessional idiot over the guest. I cannot understand a word that comes out of Natalya's mouth, as least when she's yelling or speaking rapidly. She's weird. I think the texting on these shows is completely fake, images and content. I somehow seem to recall that a young Queen Elizabeth and Prince Phillip were posted to Malta - before she was queen - and loved it. I can see why.

I thought Lupe and Jess were more interesting characters than Carson and Greta. Every time Carson opened her mouth, I heard Broad City).

Shep's true character emerged in that short verbal spat with Craig, where he reminded Craig on camera that Craig felt insecure about his position in Charleston society during the first couple of seasons. Shep, Thomas, and Whitney kind of circled around Craig, reminding him of his lower societal place, in those early seasons. That's old, privileged, white Charleston for you. A very nasty low blow for Shep to raise that issue again. But, then again, that's all Shep has going for him. Shep, you and your family are one of many average minions in Charleston society. Thomas is the only one with the true snob cred. Take a seat.

Erika Girardi/Erika Jayne: Let them eat cake
pasdetrois replied to ryebread's topic in The Real Housewives Of Beverly Hills
Those breast creams have been around forever. I used to see them in the back of my grandmother's ladies magazines (1960s). Don't know about Erika's, but at one point the FDA got after the manufacturers for making false promises (larger and firmer breasts). -

Reservation Dogs - General Discussion
pasdetrois replied to BetterButter's topic in Reservation Dogs
Amongst the youngsters, he's my favorite. But that could change. 😁 This episode was very realistic. Friends and neighbors dropping off little food gifts - iced beverages, Wonder Bread - as the vigil proceeded. The traveling songs and blessings delivered over the dying loved one. The many hands making fry bread, posole, etc. The spirit plate. It was like a little love letter to the community. So much talent in this group of actors. It's is extremely rare for me to watch any TV episode twice, but I'm doing so for this series. -

I wouldn't be surprised if Paris has approached Bravo about being a BH housewife. Bravo may love to set her and Kathy against Smug Kyle. -
S12.E15: Disco Inferno
pasdetrois replied to jewel21's topic in The Real Housewives Of Beverly Hills
So once again they spend all day in hair, makeup and putting on fancy clothes just to entertain each other. They sho ain't entertaining me. I feel vaguely depressed after watching an episode. Any episode. They are so jaded and lackluster. Rinna can't muster anything more than Performance Grief and baring her fangs. Erika, the one who is supposed to be the scandalous draw, is too stupid to do anything more than play discount blow-up sex doll. Take away the expensive 24/7 glam squad (and plastic surgeon), and there's nothing to see. Kyle is unbelievably predictable and tiresome. Diana is reptilian. I can't overlook that Dorit and PK are grifters. If I never see Kyle, Rinna or Erika again, I wouldn't even notice. -
Thanks to the wretched AMC+ I missed a lot of the episode. Can someone clarify: When/why were Saul and Walter together in a jail cell, or whatever that room was? Was it an allegory for Hell? When were Saul and Mike running around in the desert with $7 million? Why was that scene shown in the finale? I thought the last-cigarette and Saul-disappearing scenes were divine. Gave me the feels.

S12.E15: Disco Inferno
pasdetrois replied to jewel21's topic in The Real Housewives Of Beverly Hills
Absolutely. She doesn't really want to be friends with any of those losers. -
Throughout the series some of the characters, such as Clance (whom I love), do that modern snarky patter while another character is speaking or doing something. "So we're doing this now..." "Are you really going to..." "I guess you decided..."And each comment trails off. It's meaningless side commentary that's supposed to be cheeky and funny, but it's just annoying. I do like that the baseball players resemble real women, although I often remark that I've rarely seen an unattractive photo of a women from the 40s. So many of them took care with their hair and lipstick, even while wearing housedresses to clean house or riveting bombers in a factory, and they looked fabulous.

Craig really relishes telling Naomie off. I imagine him lying in bed at night, planning perfectly articulated, nasty things to say. Maybe he makes notes.
-
Shep wanted a housekeeper, cook, sex partner, etc. (a traditional southern wife without the marriage) when COVID kept him from getting those things. He also knew that having a girlfriend would lend him an air of stability. But you can read his feckless lifestyle all over his face.

S01.E10: Girls Trippin'
pasdetrois replied to formerlyfreedom's topic in The Real Housewives Of Dubai
I'm assuming this relationship is purely transactional, like so many in the entertainment and social media worlds. Caroline crawled out of bed long enough to realize she needs a financial game plan (she's aging, current child support is disappearing) and Sergio wants attention that will advance his ambitions. (Spin-off? Influencer?) Which one of them wants custody and child support? Can Sergio's family afford keeping Caroline in the manner she expects? I'm bothered by the idea of this couple having a child. Sergio seems to have a singular focus (himself) and the wits of a box of hair, and Caroline is not maternal and simply shoves her kids into boarding schools. -
So disappointed in the first couple of episodes. Very ham-handed scriptwriting and production. Some of the gags were Broad City-flavor and laborious (the extended crab search). Greta came off as weird, jammed into many scenes and making mysterious pronouncements. I did enjoy the interactions between Max and her friend (whose name I didn't catch) and their families and friends. That part of the story seems more organic and authentic. Speaking of, I don't think women of this period threw around the eff word so readily. I always say: shoddy scriptwriting.

Craig and Shep look horrible. Since this series started, they've always flirted with addiction; both admitted it. They claim to have sobered up but I doubt it. Along with Kathryn, they are headed for a bad end.

S12.E14: Shameless Not Ruthless
pasdetrois replied to jewel21's topic in The Real Housewives Of Beverly Hills
I think I spotted at least four during her conversation with Asher. My interest in this show is waning. I no longer watch it as soon as it's available. PK is oily and unctuous. The name-dropping is embarrassing. He's essentially Maurio's Designated Sycophant. Maurio probably tolerates PK because of good weed. Maurio can barely hide his contempt for the show. Rinna finally got her big grief moment. Preceded by her rage moment. How classy of her to steal attention away from the charity. She is gutter trash. -

The hat thing also hides thinning hair. I think Rinna really started relying on hats and wigs the past few years due to hair loss.
