Those of us following Ramona across the many seasons of this show see that she is not specifically *racially* insensitive....she is just insensitive insensitive. She's an equal opportunity insultor. That said, I like how Eboni handled the convo with Ramona. She showed no hard feelings. She later was able to walk down the sidewalk holding Ramona under the arm as they shopped. I appreciate that they came together.

My almost nine-year-old walked into the room as I was watching this and asked me "why are these women acting so immature?" LoL I agree, they're immature. I had some good Laughs this episode though. I liked when Leah (who I can't stand) called out Ramona for spitting her food all over the place. LuAnn had some good lines. I liked Ramona's criticizing of Leah's outfit especially while Ramona has the usual "I skinned a muppet for this look." The O.G's have to stay but Sonja needs to never drink. Shocked that halfway into the vineyard, nobody saw her going south. Imagine how much alcohol you can down while other women are distracted in anothet squabble over nothing?! Not shocking. I hope LuAnn can stay sober. I agree that past a certain age, not remembering the night before or how you got home is very embarrassing, dangerous and unhealthy. All those things at a younger age also but remaining a class act up in age is imperative. I like Eboni so far. I am glad Dorinda is gone. Heather returning as a guest? IDK about that one.

I actually laughed a bit throughout the episode. Colin is the best & he loves eavesdropping on the drama. His quip about there being no more yachties if every one with an STD left was pretty good (& I'm assuming fairly accurate). Alli- I'm glad she is backing off Gary and outed him for neglecting to say he slept with Sydney. Sydney continues to be creepy and spy on them at each chance she gets 👀 Gary is a nasty troll who throws tantrums when he doesn't get sex or affection from the object of his desire. NASTY, ugly piece of work.

What was Dani saying in Portuguese? I missed some as I couldn't look at the captioning right then. I can not blame her for wanting to RUN away from there because it's a natural instinct. "Get me away from this problem (not that you can get away from YOURSELF), the atmosphere, & the person who is involved in it!" It'll probably end up being nothing, as usual (In terms of the TV show-not life). But unless JL was with someone right before the season began, I'd be inclined to think Dani gave *him* the STD. Especially asymptotic Chlamydia.

Hey! I'm enjoying Bravo, TLC, E! & other decent programming & some good "on demand" now and then on "sling." I think like $30-$35 a month (don't quote me on it). Try it out if at all an option for you.

Jennifer blamed the "opulent" decor on Bill. In the next breath says he has "no say" & "came home one day and didn't know she was changing the countertops." She did that queen of Versailles looking decor and now she's embarrassed.

Ok idk if this is relevant here but finally saw on a "behind the episode" that Marge's assistant, Lexi, is supposedly from Manchester, UK & has lived in NJ for 12 yrs. Marge said she has an "English accent mixed with NJ." Ummm idk on this one. A strange mix and story. Can you "lose" a British accent after 10-12 yrs? My family members are from another country and in no way has anyone lost their accent that much after even 30 years.

Lol! To try brightening my home not too long ago, I traded my brown couches for white faux leather modern couches. A few weeks in, my toddler who had held a marker maybe twice in his life found a SHARPIE SOMEWHERE!! IDK where, to this day and still haven't found it....well, it was the end of that. (He's not even given to these naughty behaviors-especially back then!!! It was like the universe against the couches). They're still here in my livingroom, ever decreasing the esthetic value of my home-but the cushioning is firm & wonderful. Never again. That's where it ends though bc my home is all but sterile looking. Especially toys scattered in each room. Someday it will be clean, tidy and lonely so I take each day for what it is 😉

Nothing too interesting happened this episode especially for a finale. I'll say this...I don't think I'd do my house up the way Marge did hers. But...it's *her* style and *her* way. I appreciate the non-generic way she chose. I mean Jackie's decor & Jennifer's new home makeover look interchangeable. That modern, trendy silver/grey/white/gold/ symmetrical look. It's everywhere now. So Marge going rogue here, I can appreciate. Someone actually came dressed as COVID. Creative but IMO too soon considering the death toll & global impact especially at the time. Then ironically sporting it at a huge gathering. Anyone else feeling that Teresa came off very mature? She was super subdued. Maybe this Luis guy is grounding her. He seemed a little odd & agreed with above poster he was trying hard. I know cameras aren't for everyone but he asked T "so how you doing?" like 20 times in various phrasings in his scene. Bill Aydin was hilarious in his costume. The wig was everything. Sad for Jennifer's family issues with her parents but in real time she seems OK & happy. Gorgas- I have no care or belief in the story line. I will say that Teresa had the best reply on WWHL. She said Joego doesn't care if Melissa is making $$ now because they're in it together as it's all springing from THE SHOW. So it's just as much *his* venture. Loved it! Because know what Mel? If not for your spouse and sis-in-law, NONE of it would be happening for you. So quit the nonsense that it's "MY time now!"

No... * E) In on it as well as he is & just taking us all along for a ride on her & Chris's TV show payday F) all of the above G) none of the above

The way the dock drama was explained to me was that they got anchor drag at the front, causing them to back up Against their dock. They are at this point cut off from dock's power supply but someone forgot to flip on the boat's power supply (which powers the anchor, among other things) & it caused the issue. Then naturally panic to flip generators on bc they need to bring up the anchor & also steer, etc. However I thought the captain trumps the engineer...couldn't Gary steer & Glen go flip the "gennies" on by himself? I do not like Gary. I find no one on this ship attractive except Colin (who is taken). I can't believe they all smoke so much. I quit long ago but visited my parents this mothers day. Dad smokes & when I tell you we were choking by the end of the day, I mean it. Horrible. Outdoors, it's tolerable. When it gets inside the house though, it's suffocating. What's Alli going to do when she confronts Gary now? I can't believe she didn't even consider that Syd & Gar slept together. On a shallow note, Alli needs to do something with her hair. It's been matted, ratty & melted looking all episode. Idk What's going on there. Reminds me of those "at home bleach fails" when the hair finally lifts to the right color, it's melting off the victim's head. Eeeshh

Yeah I agree JoeGo needs to stop bashing "Juicy." He's the father the girls love and adore. I know my kids would knock someone out for talking about their daddy so negatively despite anything I had gone through with him personally (though I love and adore their daddy too lol). Sometimes you have to take the high road and stuff your opinion down. If you have nothing nice to say, say nothing at all.

Yes! My dad had the laser to break up the stones. And I clearly recall him begging and pleading if I could walk down to the pharmacy for his percocet or whatever pain meds. He was DYING.

I kind of agree Jen's face is over the top. In her young photos I've seen, she was always pretty. But her current look is over the top. The lips are whatever because it seems that's everyone's preference these days but the eyebrows are not good. I definitely don't cosign losing weight by surgery alone. She should've just dieted and exercised. I know she could've done fine with that but she admitted herself she went the "easy" route. I do like Dr. Bill though. He's sweet.

Lol "is there a doctor in the house?!" made me crack up when I read this at like 11:30pm last night. But seriously...David, an OB/gynecologist, seems to intervene in all medical issues RHNJ related. Like ehhh, delivering a baby- delivering a kidney stone = same diff🤷‍♀️? I did like him drawing a diagram on the examining table paper. I feel like he may be a good doctor but never looked him up.

Ok- can I mention WWHL here in a small capacity? When the house husbands were on & it was asked of Dr. Bill "who of all the NJ housewives, in your professional opinion, has the worst 'work' done"‐ he took a drink. Meaning, he was not willing to answer. GIVE.ME.THE.TEA. Who do you all think it is?! I am thinking tossup on Teresa & Jackie.

On the positive...I like Milania now that she's grown up more. She kind of puts a smile on my face. Her deep raspy voice & unique sense of self. I did like how in the end, Teresa listened to her daughter & wore what she picked out. I think it's SO WEIRD how Teresa & Delores (original friends of 30 Years) barely speak or interact in group settings. VERY strange. She hardly says anything even in Delores-centric conversations. Could it be that as friends they speak a ton, off camera? Or, they know how tough the other is that they don't need "backup?" Or do they not want the drama of "you only have her back as a 30-yr friend"?

Yeah...& I can't help but notice but Teresa doesn't seem AT ALL his "type." Physically, I mean. I can't say anything about other personality traits.

Wtf was this garbage!? I did not watch. Annoying filler ep!

These episodes & cast get stranger & stranger. Sydney is sinking further & further into delusion & desperation. & over who? Gary?! Sorry but Natasha made the most sense & behaved the way I'd expect for this crew. "Nobody worth my body" is RIGHT!

There's literally no difference between "Unmatchables" and "MAFS" except they give one group weddings & the others a date.

Who cares about Delores' relationship with David? Whatever works. People have beliefs of their own about what relationships after divorce or widowing looks like for them. It's personal. Yes, she spoke differently last season and is "fine with things" this season. So freakin what? Can't be that invested in it. But of course the other women will gossip about it because that's their friend/coworker and they a) are literally paid to gossip and b) it's human nature. Can't believe how far I've gone. I like Jen and dislike Marge. I used to really like Marge. If I need cosmetic procedures at any point, Dr. Aydin would be at the top of my list because he's not that far, he gets good reviews, & I like the guy.

Rewatching this now and the "psychic" came to "read" the "ladies." (Whew I'm exhausted of quotation marks)... this is all I got from the realtor woman....

J.L. Instead of "Jean Luc," maybe change it to "just lounging" or "just lunching." Soon, it may stand for "job loss." So many possibilities. I hope Dani is smarter about protection than it's appearing as. Sad about her guy friend getting killed. 😢 Also though I hate to admit Gary was right about not ever saying "no we can't" to guests. Find a way to serve shots safely or say "yes" in the moment & serve after heeling. Or explain "we'll be right out with it as soon as safe. " I've come to realize Sydney never ever looks the same twice. Every scene, every angle, she's a different person IMO. & each time I post, i have to look up her name as I can never remember it. She's still annoying. Glad Alli confronted her but of course she back pedaled as she was sober & alone w/ Alli. Glenn was funny with his crack about being hungover "oh no, that's you guys! "Lol loved it. Sad Collin lost his doggy. If I heard right, the dog was two? It must've been really sick from before the rescue.

This episode brought up some good points. Interesting perspectives from the minds of siblings throughout the course of their lives. I can understand part of that from my own childhood. My sister grew up on the plump side. I was the "skinny/pretty one." I can't help genetics but she grew up resentful of me and trying to bring me down a peg all through our lives. I never saw anything wrong with her until she started acting out on me with everything from tattle taling to making up outright lies to making fun and embarrassing me in front of people. I saw how some people would say things in front of her to either compliment me or maybe put her down with digs. Or compare us in front of our faces. She internalized things majorly and took them out on me. It didn't help mom forced us to dress identical...major issues when you do that to such different sized kids. She later got all the praises based on "kindness," "talents," etc. My mother called me the "pretty but stupid one" or I "have a nasty streak." Presumably to make up for years of us just being born looking different. It continued through adulthood. My sister claims all this emotional abuse by our family and I still am witness to the unending immunity she has in our mother's eyes. Everyone has their own truths and how they've experienced life.
