Much of this is set up by production of course. But it’s fascinating to me to see the differences in cultures around the world. I wish this franchise would show more of that rather than contrived drama. Jihoon’s mother ordering the dad to go away and stand over there compared to Kazan’s parents where mother would never be allowed to say such a thing to a man. Smit possibly having to chose between Jenny and family, etc. And the expectation in many cultures that the children continually send money. I’m obviously in the minority when it comes to Ari’s mother. I’d be worried and protective too and asking questions. That’s her child and grandchild. Especially as Ari seems blinded by love and easily manipulated . They both have an odd way of continually grinning. They’d never get jobs as TV news reporters, especially with today’s news.

I really don’t understand Michael’s relationship with Angela. I just don’t get it? Having a child means so much to him, maybe more than the green card and meeting Trump... so why does he put up with her abuse?

Gosh Larissa looks dreadful. And she has dandruff.

yikes! The Winchesters will be out of retirement before the deposit on the condo in Florida is cashed. The wayward wonders will have the world in a pickle in no time. But it would leave the door open for either a TV movie or mini series as they apparently did with X files. (Its interesting that Gill and David couldn’t stand each other. )

I’m just watching the mash up on YouTube of just Jensen (Alec) scenes.. definitely little dollops of our Dean. Jessica is exasperating! Always the same huffy expression and she garbles her lines.

I don’t like that the last episode will be a wrap up... I prefer more like “We got work to do”. Maybe god’s back in heaven with sis And maybe they locked up all demons in hell... but the family business can never be just wrapped up. Can it? I never watched X Files, how did that end?

How does one ‘wrap up’ a supernatural show? There’s always going to be something scary and dangerous floating around for them to hunt. Wrap up sounds like the Winchesters retire..........or die. 😱

Which could be a bit of a problem in future endeavours. My own personal opinion —- the majority of today’s actors cannot act. But Jensen is a standout. And it can lead to jealousy if the script starts giving him the juicy stuff because his talent is recognized. Jared never seemed to mind. It could be Dark Angel all over again. Hope not because Jensen’s a professional.

Every one of these women is a narcissist. They make for good television but must be exhausting to be with. However IMO Leah doesn’t fit. She’s not fun to watch and she’s not having fun. She has problems not helped by being on this show. And bestie Dorinda will turn on her like a rabid dog if she stops drinking and starts seeing things clearly.

What!? No glam squads! Good grief! 😱

With friends like these who needs enemies? They drink and fight on RHNY and there’s a resident mean bully, but next day it’s all hugs. I prefer that, I think. This franchise is becoming uncomfortable to watch. Dorit should be paid for walking about dressed like a billboard advertising Chanel and Versace or whoever... maybe she is? We can’t pick our height or body type. Sutton has the misfortune to have inherited thin arms and very thin legs but a thick uncurvy torso. She has the money to dress to hide her imperfections. But she doesn’t do it very well. Thankfully it’s Rome and not a bikini trip. But I kinda like her somehow.

Gang mentality is never pretty. And the target often comes off as sympathetic with audiences. I think Teddi might be the loser in this storyline. But it’s all for ratings I guess. Too bad a fun vacation in Rome is spoiled.

Well we did get to see a little bit of Rome. Sigh... I think being seven months pregnant, Teddi should’ve stayed home in Beverly Hills. The fact that Denise allegedly said not nice things about her is getting up her nose... so in retaliation she wants the ‘sex secret’’ out.

He really does look good. It’s nice he gets to spend this time with his family after all those years commuting back and forth to Vancouver. And once his career takes off again he could be gone for weeks on end depending on the project. So enjoy your downtime, Jensen. Kids grow up fast.

So Ansuelu throws a tantrum and stomps off because he misses his family in Samoa and wants to visit them... but then we learn mom and sis live in the States? Who’s left in Samoa for him to miss? Michael says he’s not chasing the green card, he’s even said he wants to stay in Nigeria. No way Ange can conceive and tote a baby. So why is he putting up with this bullying? There’s nothing in it for him ... unless the TLC money? The odd thing is he seems to care for Ange. I don’t get it. The tiny house will be a cluttered mess in no time. Owning dogs is expensive. Did Pole gat a TLC pay raise? But nice to see Kareeny smile for a change. The family Libby visit to family Andrrrrrei obviously a set up right from the drive from the airport. Who cares about Walmart after being in a plane for hours on end! I guess Andrrrrrei’s big secret will be dragged out over the next few episodes.🙄 The only reason Debbie Is in Brazil is because TLC wants her there to stir things up. What does she do all day? Sit in that hotel room? Jess seems to live in a nice home with a pool, which was a bit of a surprise. The wobbly walk on the beach ... oh my. Coltee must get an awful rash on his thick thighs as they rub together with every step (chub rub). TLC can be so cruel, but these idiots go along with the humiliation. The Larissa phone call was so fake. She’s ruined her face.

If Bravo wanted sensationalism and gob smacked audiences they shouldn’t have leaked the story early. It was old news, seemed contrived and went over like a lead ballon. And anyway whether Denise did or did not ask Brandi not to tell (if it actually happened) who broadcasts this type thing anyway? Oh right.. it’s Brandi 🙄 As there’s no filming now because of the pandemic, I’m wondering if Bravo might consider airing early seasons. I only began watching a year or so ago. I’d like to see whether things have changed over the years.

That’s quite the change... Downton Abbey versus Real Housewives of New York 😄

It’s nice but I don’t want Jensen’s next project to be with the CW.

My issue with Beverly Hills is that they land on a theme for the season and drag it out for way too long. Last season was puppy-gate, this season it’s the take down of Denise. Pack mentality isn’t pleasant to watch. I’d rather Bravo didn’t interfere so much with ridiculous setup scenes. These are big loud entitled personalities, I don’t think they need help to keep things interesting. Anyway Let’s hope they have fun in Rome and at least we see some Roman sights before the hissy fits begin.

Ramona has the power to yell Shut Down Production? Isn’t that up to Bravo? .... who must be laughing all the way to the bank with these ridiculous women. It does seem like Sonja needs help. And no wonder she always fills up on free food and free booze ... she’s broke.

I think viewers are catching onto the fact that much of this so called reality is not reality at all. There’s a seasonal plot ... the downfall of Denise, and a loose script. So it begins... Kyle needs to borrow outfits from sister Kim for the Rome trip! That alone is suspect. Kim and Brandi show up in full makeup, fully mic’ed. Cameras are set up in the bedroom for the big reveal. Clutching her pearls Brandi tries for an Oscar, the many cameras catch individual reactions of horror, the plot thickens. End of episode. Next episode. Rome. Cameras are in place. Despite being on the flight together only now can the juicy gossip be spread to the other members of the cast. It’s not entertaining anymore. It’s sad. Brandi is the saddest of all. I hope they don’t bring her back. Oddly I’m beginning to like Sutton more and more. She’s got a certain charm. And she’s not got the perfect figure... which makes a change from these skinny bitches. Not much script is needed for the NY housewives. Ply them with alcohol, all hell breaks lose... next day they’re hugging.

Why don’t they just make the ending a movie? Does the CW air movies? It could be filmed once the Borders open... which could be 2021.

They have to wait for cameras and lighting and .... ACTION!

Yikes my life is so boring. My friends are so boring. And I’ve got wrinkles... whhhaaa!!! I’ve got to stop watching this show! It’s making me feel inadequate.

Re eating rabbit and very off topic. During WW2 Londoners were encouraged to keep rabbits for food because meat was going to be scarce during bombing. So my grandma and family kept a rabbit coop in the garden. Only issue ... the cute fluffy bunnies became cuddly pets. Grandma said once they named them there was no way they could eat them.
