Thank you for sharing this. I would have missed it. I love Dorinda's house...not because I love all of her decorating choices - I don't - but I do believe that your home should be exactly how you want it to be. Trends and the style du jour be damned, Dorinda has appointed her home just the way she wants it, and I applaud that.

I agree with all of the above. I was beginning to think I was the only one who saw things this way. Kate has treated most of her crew as badly or worse (except for the physical stuff) than she was treated this season. I cry no tears for her. Maybe it's good for her to see how it feels to be the one "everyone hates." She did it to Amy, Jenn, Rocky, Bruno, Leon, and, most egregiously, Caroline. She's a mean bully who, as it turns out, can dish it out but cannot take it. As for all the Ashton hate, I understand that he acted inappropriately. I think he would be the first one to agree with that, but I believe he will work hard to change his behavior and never let that happen again. I don't think he's a bad guy. He's immaturely competitive when it comes to women. He was trying to beat Tanner to Kate and was rebuffed, twice. Now, the truly bad person in that group, imo, is Tanner. He is gross. As soon as he got wind that Simone had a crush on him, he took full advantage knowing full well he had absolutely no interest in her. He took what he could get and then dumped her, keeping his eye on the real "prize" (in his twisted mind), Kate. Not to mention his jokes about getting "girls" pregnant. He's repulsive. And, as for Ryleigh, she may be a hard worker, but I cannot think of any workplace where her kind of attitude and disrespect for authority would be tolerated, period. I don't think being female even enters into it. It is easier for someone to do the work themselves than to engage with Ryleigh long enough to get her to do it. You don't keep a job that way. I feel for her because that huge chip on her shoulder comes from somewhere and it's probably a sad or infuriating story, but she needs to get it under control or she is going to have very limited success with other people, including bosses and co-workers. I'm rooting for her.

I don't understand Kathryn's sense of fashion. Admittedly, she makes many, many fashion/make up/hair mistakes, but then, once in a while, she gets it right and knocks it out of the park. The first Caroline Day ball, for instance. Also, last season, when she went to Thomas' house one evening, in that cream cape and khaki slim-fit pants, she looked like a million bucks. I thought she looked amazing at the polo match last season as well. I think, if she would just stop trying so hard, she would be stunning. Her obvious insecurity and self-consciousness, though, will probably keep that from happening for some time yet.

And it's so ironic, because, in the eternal words of Rachael Green (tm Friends), they both "lift right out." Neither of them have any real entanglements or interesting relationships with the rest of the cast. Shep is just sad to watch, and I am way over all Cameron's judgment of others and endless whining about her own cushy, perfect life. For all she's gone through, Kathryn should be the highest paid member of that cast. She is the star of this show, for better or for worse.

In the very last moments of the show, after Kathryn delivers here fantastic line about her coat tails being about worn out and walks away, Eliza says something like, "Okay then," to Whitney and then winks. Did anyone else see that? She winks with her left eye, so you don't catch it right away, but if you didn't see it, look for it next time. I was starting to soften toward Whitney a bit, but now my guard is back up. Looks like he's EPing hard again, lining Eliza up to be the next one to go at Kathryn.

Agree and co-sign to ALL this. I'm especially excited to see that we share the same thoughts re Craig & Naomi. I think Craig is being honest about getting over Naomi and is right that Naomi is still not squared away. I thought that was kind of obvious at Shep's bbq last season and has continued from there. I think Naomi got so ugly with Craig that he got to a place of resentment and true dislike toward her. That lent to Craig getting over Naomi easier than Naomi got over Craig. Once Craig got away from Naomi, I think Naomi realized that Craig is kind, true, and attractive to other women - things she managed to forget while they were together. Therefore, Naomi has a lot more unresolved feelings for Craig than Craig does for Naomi. Looks to me like Smug, Belittling Naomi may be in for some karma because Metul seems pretty quick with put-downs for Naomi. I also agree whole-heartedly about Shep. Shep is deteriorating into a bitter, beer-bellied man-child who is so embarrassingly insecure about and jealous of Craig it is ugly to behold. Sure, Craig may be quirky in his unabashed love of sewing, but at least he is true to himself and secure enough in himself to share that. What has Shep done, tried, or created while on this show? His life is a'shambles, and he knows it.

I agree. And I think that Kathryn was uncomfortable in her dress and that was why she kept fidgeting. She seemed self-conscious about how she was supposed to sit, how much leg to show, etc. I think the dress was a poor choice. She was obviously uncomfortable.

I think the opposite. Rinna is the kid to throw a rock through the school window and stand there in the middle of the street bare-assed mooning you until you haul her into the principal's office where she spits on the floor while she waits.

Please stop. You can say a lot of things about LVP, but she loves this little dog and provides him a wonderful life. Your harsh criticism and judgment all while referring to Giggy as "it" really falls flat.

I could believe this because Dorit still does not seem to really believe she did anything wrong... So I could see her selling the story thinking she was playing her part in the LVP takedown because that's what the biddies keep telling her. Dorit is no mental giant. Then again, I can't shake the feeling it was Rinna.

And, "honest", as in, "I'm just being honest." 🙄 Methinks we'll all be skinny dipping with the VPRules cast by the end of the show. 🥂🥂🥂

Agreeing with all this, but I would like to nominate Kathryn Edwards to return, also. She stuck up for LVP and bugged the crap out of Erika - a two-fer! She was blunt and tough, something sorely needed in this cast.

I find Camille to be kind of an enigma. I love Camille 2.0. She's her own woman with no inherent ax to grind. She seems to dip in and out of the HW drama as she pleases without getting too mired down in it. I am always struck by Camille's body language, too. When she hugs someone, she closes her eyes and really draws them close. That suggests genuineness to me. The body language in this photo is clear, too. But, wow, I can't totally dismiss or forget season 1 Camille. She was one haughty, mean bitch. This is why I will never understand why they don't bring her on as a full time HW. She must be resistant to it, herself . Too bad. I would love to see her back.

For his sake, I hope so. I know John is not everyone's cup of tea, but everyone deserves respect from the person they're in a relationship with. She treats him like a dog and, in that regard, I feel bad for him.

I happen to think LVP is truly a beauty. I will say that she reads a little older than she really is, but, honestly that is a trade I would be willing to make. Honestly, most of the cast are very attractive with the exception of Rinna, who I think has a very harsh look that she has worsened with her choice of enhancements, and Teddi who, imo, is quite average looking. Erika has a great face for makeup and made up properly she can be a knockout. Kyle is very attractive but better stop with the enhancements now because she is teetering on the edge. Dorit... I can't be objective anymore because she is a soulless puppy dumper, but I used to think she was pretty. All that said, if I had my pick of who to look like, I would choose LVP. I just think she has a gorgeous face.
