I don't think Sutton is going anywhere. For whatever reason, she really wants to be part of the this show and seems like she will put up with just about anything to do it.

Pro bono attorney?!! Since when do residents of Beverly Hills need pro bono attorneys? Pffft.

Well, that was my point. That whole sorority sisterhood thing was never going to fly with this group, none of them, including Sutton, were capable of that new dynamic. It didn't even last a day.

And nothing says "Sisterhood Forever" like someone hitting you with her wallet, calling names, and intentionally trying to humiliate another woman who clearly is coming undone (You're not mad at me, you are mad about your life.) I'm not saying Sutton shouldn't have tried to defend herself or hit back at Dorit. This is how this group rolls. But then don't try to make the group into some pseudo sorority of support.

She was soap opera-y. That's one thing I liked about her! Only a soap actress could deliver the "Beast. How dare you" line like she did. Also, when she thought paying tens of thousands for a bag was ridiculous I really liked her. 😁

I'm not sure Dorito is self aware enough to understand just how awful and boring she is coming off this season. But why would anyone so desperate to stay on this shit show take advice from someone who got herself tossed off of it? Oh yeah, Dorito is a dum dum.

PK lost all his booze bloat. And it looks like he's staying at a golf club in Florida. I wonder where Jaegar and Phoenix think he is right now? Walking out the door is one thing, but if you leave young children behind you should keep one foot in the door. I think publicly trash talking each other is really dumb of him and Dorito when there are young children involved.

But that's essentially what she did isn't it? It was Garcelle and others that kept mentioning it. We know Kyle wants to avoid being drawn into conflict at all times, my favorite example being her high-tailing it out of the restaurant in Amsterdam when Kim and Rinna went at each other. I think she would be happy to not have this subject tossed at her by these co-workers.

Heh. On the other hand, according to the tabs [People ] Kyle, with Kathy, have essentially been bankrolling Kim's life for a long time, including letting Kim live in a house Kyle owns in Encino.

Despite all of Dorito's endless talking (or maybe because of it) I can't remember who initiated her and PK's separation/divorce. Did he leave or did she tell him to go?

I was a little surprised by Andy at that too. But honestly, public figure or not, if someone Kyle cares about has asked her not to mention their relationship (whatever it is) on camera then of course Kyle should respect that. Last night she said she was not going to talk about anything she thought would hurt anyone she loved and cared about. What she doesn't have a problem with, is talking about something that might hurt someone she doesn't care about.

They weren't broke. Both came from well off upper middle class families. He was already a successful investment banker when they got married. She married someone with real potential. That's marrying well - at least financially. On the other hand, this guy also filed for divorce on her birthday, came to the party with a cake and called her the next day on his way somewhere to tell her she needed to get an attorney. She said she was completely blindsided. So maybe didn't marry that well. I'd say she divorced well. They continued to co-parent and she got a fair share of money out of the marriage.

I wonder if Teddi knows how terrible her illness has been for ERIKA? Poor Erika, suffering all the stress from Teddi Mellencamp's cancer news. 🤮 So much stress she can't even meet a court mandated deadline (or more likely, pay her attorney.). Hey Erika, grace is for Teddi and her family, not you.

We only know about Jim's daughters because Rick asked him if he had any kids. Jim replied that he and his wife (Sritala) had two daughters. Jim knew he was Rick's father as soon as Rick told him his mother's name so he knew Rick existed, just didn't care.

I've seen character study shows done much better by Mike White. All the speculation of character motives shows me this season was short on character building/study. Each Ratliff family member came off one note/flat, except maybe Saxon. I honestly got more character insight from Frank's(Rockwell) few scenes than all the Ratliffs put together. For me, it was a lot of repetition filled in with beautiful camera work (night club dancing, water drops back into the water, Lochan's near death, etc.) So much so that I wondered if White had a thing for the cinematographer. And of course lots and lots of monkeys. So many monkey shots I honestly expected a monkey to have a role rather than just stage dressing. In the end, it was just filler for me.

Oh crap, now I am going to have to go back and look.

Same. There is absolutely nothing she says (and says and says) or does that is remotely interesting or entertaining to me. I think staying on this show is the only thing she wants to do, but honestly she should stop and start looking for a new husband while she can.

This is what I enjoy about Jennifer Tilly; she doesn't worry too much about stuff like that. And while she is definitely Sutton's friend, I don't see any interest in jumping into the middle of a fight.

Well that and the many many, many close up shots of the blender with poison remnants in it.

Yep, and I'm one of them. Next time I'm going to wait until all the episodes are out to watch. Also, I think one reason TWL was a big hit was timing. Filmed during the pandemic, where very little was filmed and broadcast in July 2021 when production companies were just ramping back up thanks to vaccinations.

I thought that all season. "World building" as White puts it, shouldn't mean seven hours of repeated scenes filled in with lots of artsy (but cool) camera work. I liked the finale but the previous seven episodes could have been done in two. Exactly how I feel. Also the third sequel of almost any movie isn't generally any good. Too bad the brilliant talent of actors were blinded by his name before some of them even read the script.

Didn't they show Laurie and Kate comforting Jaclyn on the boat? She would be understandingly upset after standing next to a man who was just shot to death. The Ratciffs however, would have something else on their minds as soon as they looked at their phones.

Interesting theory and you make a good point about OG RHONY. However, I quit watching when they did that. I always thought that decision was more about demographics [looking for younger viewers so they cast younger women] but hey, I got older just they did and that includes RHOBH and Kyle. I still like this show and I'd hate for them to reboot. Regarding Garcelle and producer pressure, I have a hard time believing she would let a producer influence her that much but of course it could happen. Still, Garcelle has always been a pot stirrer, which I didn't mind and also attributed to her keeping the focus off herself. Kind of a smart move really. I will miss Garcelle, just like I missed LVP, Eileen and even Camille because they entertained me in various ways.

I don't know if I would take the money or not, seems like it would be easy to rationalize. BUT, this money was extorted from a dangerous, alleged murderer, not offered as hush money. That was the $100K number. I think there is a difference between an offer and extortion.

The money wasn't offered; it was demanded by Zion. At $100K Belinda was all about her principles but as soon as her son puts a 5 million dollar price for their silence the money trumps/changes principles. I guess everyone has their price.
