Jenni said in an interview that the filming of the show takes seven months. On his radio show, Jeff said it takes much longer tha the housewife shows because nothing is staged. On the housewives, all those luncheons, parties, and trips are chosen by the producers to create opportunities for drama. Jeff said that during most of the filming on Flipping Out, they are just working and nothing happens. At the end of the seven months, the producers choose the most interesting footage and piece it together to create a coherent story line.

Even if Jeff handed over his personal film, its the producers who choose what footage to use. It's Bravo that crafted the contract and Bravo that has the lawyers to decide whether they can legally use the footage. I don't see how Jeff is responsible,

I thought this episode was boring. And JW is channeling 10 and 11, but without the charm. It took me a while to really enjoy 12, so we’ll see.

There is a reason no one had eaten “carrott” cake. Yep, I rewound to double check the spelling. These two hour episodes of friends are boring.

We saw lots of scenes of all the girls at dinner just laughing away. When did Erika feel so badly that she had to go to a hotel?

Yeah, she said they get six weeks of training and are assigned clients.

Teddi was a guest on Jeff Lewis's radio show. She's not just an accountability coach. She has a company that provides those services with fifteen employees. I wonder why that was never mentioned?

I agree. I also give the side eye to women who say they shaved their eyebrows once and they never grew back. I've been plucking the same chin hairs for decades.

"Where's the memorabilia?" My favorite line of the night. And, yeah, as others have said, Dorinda includes Richard in her conversations because he was beloved, she created years of memories with him, and he was a family member. We don't even know the first name of old man Morgan. Sonja is in trouble because she signed a seven million contract and spent a whole lot more money trying to fight it. On Radio Andy, Jeff Lewis said that Sonja is desperate for money. I agree that her behavior is at least partially to make sure she keeps her apple. Sonja has tried so many ways to make money. Girl, pull yourself together and go husband hunting. It could be your only hope.

Good for Carole. She should be proud of herself, but she is really proud of herself. I mean really, really, proud of herself. I hope it tones down as the greatest accomplishment of her and everyone else's life soon. I'm also on Lu's side as to Tom/Adam/Tinsley. Lu was desperately in love and she was devastatingly humiliated. Why does she owe an apology to the bitches who tried to tell her she was making a mistake. How saintly of them. How they suffered. Just shut up and offer a sympathetic ear if asked. And Carole? Lu's crushing divorce trumps living with a guy who you knew had an expiration date. Whom you tried to hold on to with a book deal. Who moved out last season and who you are still sleeping with.

Whoa! Even though The Daily Mail is a tab, it lays out his serial cheating. I mean, he cheated on Everyone. And Lauren looks just like his ex Sydney. He will be cheating on Lauren by June. No doubt.

I’m over her a thousand percent! It’s been a whole week since I broke her heart!

I’ve missed you so much this last month and a half? There are pics of You arriving at Lauren’s with dates, fella. It was two months.

According to Reality Steve, Arie broke up with Becca, not after several weeks per CH, but two months later.

I guess The pressure to have intelligent conversations got to be too much for Arie. Now he and Lauren can spend all their time staring vacuously into each other’s, like, you know, like eyes.

I totally want Krystal to be the next b-Ette. Just imagine her manipulations trying to get the richest and most desirable bachelor. And the guys looks of confusion and then horror as they clue into her and try to escape followed by Krystal becoming more delusional and desperate. It would be a race to the smarminest and most shallow man left. I wonder if Dean May, Tara Reid’s fake boyfriend from Marriage Boot Camp is available? Match made in heaven.

So bummed! Kelly is so different. And I thought she was robbed during her season. Boo Hoo.

I think the judges will not be able to choose a winner/loser in the face off (ha, right) and will drag the other contestants on stage to give their opinions on who should stay and who should go (better water cooler moment). Some of them speak out about the doublemint twins collaborations and call it cheating. When they get to Margarita she gets all sanctimonious about not being raised to throw someone under the bus and the whole process freaks out Michael and he runs.

I finally got to see the show. Kiki held his own and reinforced that he is a superb partner. He did his thing and framed his partners beautifully and helped Taylor look, well, adequate. Her cha cha was not very good. And I think Koine far out performed her in their number. It seems to me that Koine is the most professional dancer left. She really can do everything very well, but hasn't seemed to excite the judges. Taylor, and to some extent Lex, with their solo contemporary backgrounds, are still working through partnering and upper body control. For instance, Lex's tap was terrific, but his arms were all over the place and in general his lifts need work. Taylor's hip movements need practice as well. It's probably age combined with less experience. Lex for the win.

But isn't the point that Sidney specifically asked Tamra not to post it? If Sidney and anyone she permitted to post the pic, did so, that's their business and their relationship to tabloids/bloggers. Tamra needed to hold up her end of the agreement. Or what ghoulina posted!

Loved the Barbara Cartland take off. And is Eve Harrington/Montana finally going to show her true colors on the next episode?

One thing that did bug me was Bill being shot in front of the Doctor. He could have used the sonic, his fighting skills, or just sent Bill back into the tardis. It was kind of lame. The Master/Missy thing can be confusing regarding the redemption arc. Yes, Missy was evil, but the drumming was gone. On the other hand, when the Master couldn't remember he was a time lord, he was a very nice guy.

And probably the beautiful young woman will have a disapproving, troublesome mother. Sigh.

Well, that episode got me. I have never been a big fan of twelve, but this season has been really good. And I love Bill and Nardole and want them back! Can't Nardole find the Master's tardis (with a regenerated helpful Missy), remove the colonists to another planet and return to the new Doctor? These companions were just so damn good. It's a shame to lose them after only one season.

I loved Dorinda giving it to Sonja. A pile of crap built up over the hiatus and she let her have it. No evil looks and gossiping behind her back for the rest of the season - maybe.
