[S15.E03: The Splash Heard Round the OC]

I am kind of enjoying the petty arguments. I prefer my housewives to argue about square footage, creepy texts, and the size of doormats (Atlanta) rather than the dark allegations in Rhobh. Also, the Braunwyn’s sobriety storyline is a buzzkill. Pun intended. 😉
 

[S05.E13: No Shows and Show Downs]

Just as I was warming up to Wendy, it comes out that she has taken something I assume to be confidential about Karen and gossiped about her marriage troubles. 😔  I fully expect this from Ashley or Gizelle but not Wendy with 4 degrees, beautiful family and great career. I am crying into my Oregon Pinot as I type this.

I missed the text. What did it say?

Here it is. 😂It’s the winky emoji and mentioning he put Braunwyn to bed in their sex condo that creeped me out.

[S15.E02: Tequila Truth Serum]

I think I appreciate Shane’s dry humor. I literally snorted when he said he would just eject one of the two at the bday party.

Tamra doesn’t need a check to stir the pot. I think Bravo is getting a great deal here. 

Also laughed at Gina/Emily making fun of Braunwyn’s husband’s immunity idol. Btw.. what does he do? And yes that text to Gina was slightly inappropriate.

I’ll admit before I saw the fight I thought it was Candiaces fault because of Moniques social media. But it’s obvious Monique was in the wrong. Also Monique went crazy and actually snuck away to go get Candiace. Like what if there was no one to stop her. That part was so fucked up.

I don’t even like Michael but it’s obv why he cheated. He married Ashley to have a fun freaky wife and now she’s switched it and is having babies and wanting a traditional marriage. That’s not what Michael signed up for and Ashley knew that but she wanted the financial security. Not sure why Michael keeps impregnating her but that’s another story.

Re: Michael-The guys on watch what crappens podcast pointed out how many times Michael blamed the baby in that "therapy session".

I love the accents they do for both Michael and the baby "wah wah".. 😂 Anyway,their storyline is so old. Michael has been grabbing asses since season 1! Now that Ashley has secured the bag with child support x2, divorce bells are ringing. I had to agree with Candiace when she said "Not for long" regarding their marriage.

I still think Monique strategically chose her victim, and for all the reasons you said.  

It just strikes me that Monique managed to "walk away" from tall, athletic Robyn, who is well liked by the cast and is generally inoffensive.  And Robyn taunted Monique far more than Candace did.  However, when it was short, petite, skinny, unlikable and despised Candace, suddenly Monique "blacked out"  and physically attacked her?  I just don't buy it.  

I think back on how many times this season Monique has tried to get Candace to engage with her.  From the dinner after Candace's party to the lakehouse situation and it probably would have been the same had Candace gone on that podcast.  

In that light, it starts to look like Monique just chose the easiest victim and then baited and waited for her opportunity.  And if thats true, that level of strategic premeditation is scary.  

Absolutely. Another evidence showing premeditation is when she said to the producer that she had it coming for a year. Her entire calm demeanor during that fight scared me. 

[S05.E12: Fully Charged]

I think Monique is incredibly lucky that Candiace is so unlikeable that the public opinion is even split on what's clearly a black and white issue. I'm not gonna lie, I was also influenced by Monique's social media campaign last year. I figured, based on past behavior, that Candiace could incite violence in Ghandi.  But now, having seen the footage, we can see Monique was counting on just that- Candiace's unpopularity to justify her unwarranted and repeated attacks on Candiace (I couldn't believe my eyes when she ran back). 

[S05.E11: Taxing Times and Blurry Lines]

I made the mistake of checking Twitter and the majority of people are on Monique's side. When did it become acceptable to assault anyone? Despite the fact that Candiace's annoying behavior did not warrant Monique's absolutely psychotic response. I really hope she is fired. I really do not want to watch grown women pulling each other's hair. 

Karen's visit home was beautiful. Learning about her family farm's history was just *chefs' kiss* incredible and proof of Black excellence and perseverance. 

[S05.E03: Sip and See You Later]

I actually appreciated Ashley breastfeeding in front of everyone. Breastfeeding should be normalized and not shamed. If I may be so bold, it should actually be revered. It's totally natural and a woman's super power. I felt for her with Michael at the store. She commented on her body and he mumbled incoherently about getting back to work. What she sees in him ($) is not worth it. And 3 months without sex after birth is totally normal. 

Wendy's twins were so adorable and I really enjoyed the ebo lesson with grandma. Also, her husband is HOT and an attorney. Finally, we have a handsome, presumably intelligent husband based on his profession and the fact that he said 2 words in Potomac.

I felt for Gizelle's daughters. They know their dad ain't sh*t and that gift was totally indicative of his personality. I would feel bad for Gizelle but she's kind of evil and I feel worse for the daughters. 

So glad Robyn wasn't in this episode. I reached for my remote during the split second her bratty son appeared with her running around with her Eeyore voice. Thankfully, it was over before I could ff. 

Karen, LOVE. I love that she is not getting dragged into the petty drama and enjoying her fish. 

Still disappointed in Monique because I used to really like her. I don't like how she's treating Candiace. She even mentioned "icing" her out which we all know is the housewives' "blacklist and get her fired" strategy and this was her friend? That said, Candiace is still annoying but I felt for her when she ran out and I think she actually cried for real this time over the deterioration of her friendship. 

Wendy, I want to like her so bad. On paper, she is black girl magic but somehow it's not translating. I'm actually dumbfounded as to why she would join this shit show when she has so many things going for her. Oh well, as long as we get a lot of screen time of her yummy hubby and her super adorable kids.

She didn't care that someone was giving birth to their child and still dragged them on social media ... the kind of person that would do that is the kind of person that should be called out whenever and wherever possible ....I am just super happy that this show is back its the only one that doesn't drive me up the wall 🙂 .. I live for me some Messy Karen who cant keep any of her lies str8 .. I wonder how her driver that she was supposed to be having an affair with  is doing 😛

I want Karen to live her best life. I stan for her shenanigans too. 😂

I wonder what happened between Karen and Ray... or is this just being done for a storyline? He seems totally checked out and his three "oks" thing was harsh. 

Yes, Giselle was stirring the pot but I still can't stand Candiace. Her name-calling of Ashley over social media was nasty. So I'm rooting for Ashley on this one. 

Speaking of Giselle, she isn't looking as good this season. 

So far I'm not impressed with Wendy. 

I wonder if he's jealous of the trainer, Mr. Blue eyes and resents her spending and relative youth.

Where you going on your honeymoon? maybe you should have spent the money from that party on your honeymoon .. Im sorry Candace deserved that dig ... And Candace did the same thing with the new girl against Gizelle she started feeding her shit before she even met her so she couldn't make her own opinion she now has Candace opinion and comments in her ear.. Candace is no babe in the woods in this she gives just as good as she gets so if someone flings shit at her I think she deserves it

I am not saying Candiace is innocent but Monique is her friend and they  just reconciled so she owed it to her to communicate properly but I know, if any of them communicated, we wouldn't have a show. Gizelle has always stirred things up and always gets to skate through. I thought Monique would realize that by now.

For a second, I thought you were asking me about my honeymoon.🤣 I am actually planning a solo trip as soon as the Corona is over! I would for sure travel rather than host a $20k party with a cash bar but it wasn't the time or place for M to call her out like that.

I didn't detect an accent overall but I will listen more closely next time. Even so . . .  LI-BARY?????? 

Just . . . NO!!! 😄 

🤣. It was slight but I detected an accent during the CNN commentary.

But I agree, it's egregious for a Johns Hopkins professor who will surely use that as a weapon to come after the women.

 

[S05.E02: The Rumor Meal]

Could be an accent thing. I noticed she is from Nigeria. If she is bilingual, I can cut her a bit of slack. 

[S05.E02: The Rumor Meal]

I am disappointed in Monique. Why would she let Gizelle, of all people rile her up without talking to Candiace directly. Instead, she is being passive aggressive and throwing digs at her in front of everyone. They have all seen how Gizelle has a history of stirring shit up. Why wouldn't she pause and consider the source and that maybe Candiace and Charisse have a friendship that has nothing to do with her. This "you can't be friends with someone I had a falling out with" is bs and immature. 

The rumor is highly probable because of Monique's reaction. How does Charisse get all the tea season after season? lol

The forced apology at the table and the mean girls "gang-banging" TM Karen on Candiace made me side with her. Glad she told Ms busy body with atrocious taste in clothes, decor and men to STFU.

Wendy's comment to Karen about having sex was highly inappropriate and immature. Thought she was classier than that. I thoroughly enjoyed her lunch with Candiace though.

[S05.E01: Old Testaments, New Revelations]

I am so happy this show is back! The best rendition yet. Even Candiace didn't bother me and I remember being highly annoyed in seasons past. I am sure she will remind me. I think I like the new woman too. I can't help but feel a bit sad for Karen and Ray. We have seen many marriages deteriorate throughout this franchise.Still, heartbreaking stuff to watch. Especially since I can't help but love Karen. 

Loved the clips of the ladies snarking on Jamal and Gizelle. I think I laughed too loud at Monique's quip about tithing. 

Ashley. It was hard for me to watch cuz I felt just like her when mine was a wee one down to the crunchy lifestyle, agoraphobia and the baby blues. Minus the creepy, cheating husband. Hope she gets support from Monique. I like seeing that friendship blossom.

They tend to have a hard time down here (key west) finding places to shoot ..... because of the problems they tend to cause and the bad publicity most of the time the places get... When the real world was here the gay bars mostly refused to let them film because they wanted to stage fights ....If you notice when the OC ladies shot down here the bar was mostly empty because they closed it off cause they didn't know what the ladies were gonna do ... most of the other "patrons" in the background scenes were employees and stuff

Did the employees get hazard pay? 🤣

I don’t believe in violence in response to speech, so I guess A2D.  If someone talked shit about my sister, I’d let her fight her own battle with words.  

This. Plus, I hate to say it, but they started it. Had they not been judgmental and controlling, I doubt Sonja would have called her a demon apropos of nothing. And I actually found it quite hilarious. 

[S12.E10: Something's Brewing]

I think I have said this before but it bears  repeating, Rhony is a breath of fresh air compared to Rhobh. I swear my blood pressure rises astronomically after that one. I can't be mad at Ramona and Sonja's silly antics. They are actually, dare I say, the FUN drunks. Leah is the opposite. I too need her replaced with Elyse who fits in better and is much classier. 

I did not like how Dorinda bullied Tinsley into telling the group and how she treated her like a criminal. She actually has eyes on her (did she hire a mossad agent like she did Sonja and keep a file on her?) Or just a messy producer in her ear? Either way, it's beyond obsessive.

At the same time, I am kind of tired of Tinsley's immature screeching and judgmental attitude. Let the cougars have fun on their last day and you can have your dinner with Leah and her sister who for sure ruined the dynamic and thus Ramonja adopted a laissez faire attitude. I would not blame them.  I think I would have much rather joined the cougars at the bar but only to observe.😂

Oh Lu, if you're playing marry, fuck, kill and the options are Sonja, Bethenny, and Ramona the obvious answer is marry myself, fucking kill them all.

[Leah McSweeney: Designer to the Mob]

Leah's episode on millionaire matchmaker is on right now.

[S01.E18: Reunion]

I am late to the party but I was stopped dead in my tracks when Adam said he was in Oregon. We have ENOUGH psychopaths here. I hope he rolls down the river in his van sans dog asap.

[S12.E09: Hurricane Leah]

How is Leah younger than Tinsley yet looks firmly in her mid 40s who acts like a rowdy teenager who hasn't yet learned how to hold their liquor? Just learned that she has bipolar Il. All the more reason, she shouldn't be drinking especially if she's on medication. I actually started out liking her but I should have remembered I should give a housewife at least a season or 2 before their true colors come out. Leah wasted no time. And of course, every guy who is not that into her MUST be gay. 🙄

Sonja and Luann sure love to add fuel to the fire. Elyse was making sense.

To absolutely nobody's surprise, Dorinda loves Leah. Compared to Leah, she looks as sober as a judge. She must think we are grading on a curve. 

Next week's previews hint Dorinda will go after Tinsley and her on/off again relationship again. Can't wait./s.

Even with all the shenanigans, I enjoyed this episode way more than Rhobh. That show gives me anxiety with all the passive aggression and nasty, mean girl behavior. These ladies at least enjoy each other for the most part and are up front. 

[S01.E17: Regatta Go!]

Jenna lied and said they both saw white stuff on his nose. She made the whole thing up to distract from her unprofessional behavior. I was surprised to see Chris cosign tho.

[S01.E17: Regatta Go!]

Jenna remains the worst chief stew in history. I have never seen such an incompetent, lazy and awful manager in my life. If they bring her back, I won't be watching.

I can't like Georgia because her thirst for Paget at the expense of Ciara was hard to watch. 

Adam is a psychopath.

I also dislike the creepy Byron who does nothing but eavesdrop.

I didn't mind Glen. Just wished he had protected his crew better from psychopath Adam and useless Jenna. 

That leaves Madison. She's the only one I liked.
