I don't know, I keep laughing every time another person says Gaston is not attractive. Because I don't think he is, at all. I'm confused.....had Gaston presented it to Taylor that he and Salley had just been a one night stand or a fling? And Salley (and now JT) are saying that it was a true longer-term relationship? I'm just not getting what is supposed to be the big deal here. And if Gaston cheated with Salley, that's on him, not on her. Taylor is soooo boring and so useless. I could care less if Gaston is a total scoundrel. I wouldn't be surprised. This fool thought Shep of all people was going to marry her. Why does JT always proclaim himself such a man of honor? Who even talks like that? And if you have to label yourself something, 99% of the time it isn't true. Let others say it about you. Nobody is saying that about little parasite JT. Venita is so adorable and upbeat and happy. It makes me sad that she came in so hot and kind of off the rails in her first season (likely producer driven). Because I think she's one of the better things about this show now. If we can get her away from JT.

With the glimpses we were given of Lake's "art", I'd say we can all collectively breath a sigh of relief that the girl comes from big money.

I'm usually not too critical of this show because I watch these things knowing what I'm getting myself into.....but wow, what a boring episode. None of these new people know each other (other than, I supposed, being connected by who they've slept with). So the forced interactions and confrontations when literally none of them care, is just not entertaining to watch. Craig and Austen have opened a very nice restaurant together which doesn't jive at all with this loss of friendship. So we know this is all fake. Absolutely no one would care if Craig had coffee with JT. The meeting didn't even have anything to do with Austen and JT's problem with him. Madison storming off because she too was so offended was laughable. Venita drowning.....the frosting on the cake of this stupidity. I could care less about "Rod" and his boyfriend(?)/husband(?). They're bores and apparently only around to give Taylor someone to shoot with. I also am not excited about Austen's new girlfriend. If her energy level gets any lower, she won't have any further back to sink down into her chair. Sit up - girl! Austen's Mom and sister always seem like lovely people but.........they are not "facially gifted". Those genes are lurking behind Austen's face so I hope there are no surprises when the baby comes out looking like Grandma and Auntie. A lot of these shows do some pretty far reaching for storylines but our poor Southern Charm seems to be having the hardest time coming up with anything right now.

Agree with everything you said about Michols. Leva raving about "how mature" he is when the dude doesn't understand the most basic 101 rule of management: don't fraternize with your employees. He shouldn't be socializing and he most definitely shouldn't be hooking up with staff. But to reiterate what you said, it's Bravo so it's encouraged for the show. I love the deep, connecting, soul baring conversations on these shows. TJ: "Like, and like, and like, and like, I can't express my feelings or something". Michols: "Wow, I can't believe you just revealed the depths of your deep soul and inner most thoughts and feelings to me and now everything is fine and we are bonded like blood brothers". Joe Bradley is a buck-toothed, cross eyed nerd. I can barely look at the guy. Siobhan. Oof. Emmy's reaction was so disproportionate to the accusation that I think we have our answer here.

Absolutely thrilled for Demi! She looked fantastic and her speech was amazing. The moment of the night, in my opinion. Some had to mute during the banter, I had to turn my head and shield my eyes whenever Ariana Grande was on the screen. What is up with this schtick? This constant facial expression like she is seeing fairies dance in front of her eyes. When she got up to go on stage, she was like a child, she couldn't even walk, she had to hop around on her tip toes. I'm not sure what she's going for lately but it's absolutely idiotic.

I actually really liked that they focused on Salley's career. Good for her! So she's not a doctor but is she an RN? It would seem there would have to be some clinical base there. I think it's exciting (and surprising!) to see a successful, educated woman on this stupid show. Leva is a hustler too, I know, but it doesn't quite feel the same. We've had two hairstylists (Madison, Chelsea), a sugar baby (Jenna/season 1), unemployed drifter (Landon), family money (Naomi), married well (Cameron - never really bought that the real estate career was true), dental hygienist/now unemployed? (Taylor), family money (Olivia), unemployed grifter (Kathryn), artist (Danni), influencer (Venita), unemployed model (Molly). Who am I missing? So mainly a pretty unimpressive bunch. Shep infuriates me. Lecturing about being "successful" but also enjoying the fruits of your labor. The man knows nothing about working hard and is a lazy loser. Same with the waste of space known as Austen. Glad you're tall bro. It's like the alcoholics are trying to do an intervention on a sober person. Craig has it together but they need to show him the error of his ways? Would they treat him differently if he had gotten married and had children and that was what was now taking up his time and focus? Because it's pretty much the same and that is just a very normal part of life and growing up.

Paige and Craig have broken up.

Love it - so true 😆 Shep's girlfriend was described as looking like a runway model. Huh? Looked about as average as you can get to me. With a personality to match. I actually felt bad for Taylor, and I'm not even a fan. Making her seem like an ugly troll when compared to the "runway model" (say what you want about her, but I think Taylor is probably considered pretty attractive to most). Sienna being snotty to her. And Gaston could care less about her.

Apparently, it's been confirmed that Craig and Paige are over?

No doubt, I'm tuning in. Could absolutely care less about Carl and Lindsay. New girl looks like a low-rent version of Lala. Is it possible to be a lower rent version of Lala? I'll be curious to see how that lip liner translates in full screen time. First impression of the new guy is yuck. I hope they don't villainize Craig. We get it Paige, you're a "strong, independent woman" who isn't going to be tied down by the man. Don't need to keep over-emphasizing that, everyone's gotten the memo. And I like Paige. The trailer was posted a few pages on Instagram and man, the Paige fans are almost at Beyonce level. If anyone posts anything supporting Craig or questioning her in the slightest, they get absolutely piled on. It's pretty ridiculous.

Whitney is still a 10 year old boy who's been sent away to Swiss boarding school his whole life but has to come home during the summer and try to fit in with the neighborhood kids. He is just as awkward in his 50's. It was kind of funny when the show started and he was just a ridiculous dork trying desperately to fit in with the cool kids, but now it's just uncomfortable to watch. When he was fat shaming Molly, I wanted to give her a big pat on the back for continuing to eat the cupcake! Don't put it down, girl! I felt bad for her. I like Craig. I like Paige. But the sad part is that Craig has always wanted to do things by the normal standards. And their relationship is being dictated by Paige's established timeline. And I get it! Paige loves NYC and she has a ton going on in her life right now. No girl needs to be giving all that up to settle down and get married if that's not what they want. I still feel Craig's going to be the one coming up with the short end of the stick and I think that's too bad.

Thanks for posting the update, snarts. I came here to do that yesterday but just deleted my post because everything I wrote was mean and it made me feel like it was better to say nothing at all. But since I can't help myself 😆, I sure hope that the sperm donor is a nice man who will be a present and positive parent in Gemma's life. Lord knows she's going to need it considering who her Mother is.

JT - stop trying to make "fuck boy exorcism" a thing. Yeah, it may have gotten a chuckle at the reunion but it doesn't need to go beyond that. He had a girlfriend the entire time this sad, unbelievable, showmance with Venita was being concocted. My question is whether Venita was in on this fact or not. The level of Shep's family's wealth never ceases to surprise me. The farm caretaker definitely treated him exactly like the rich son that he is. And yet jobless mailbox money Shep feels it's his place to criticize Craig for wanting to protect and grow his business. Good Lord. It's amazing how Madison came on the scene kind of a low rent, foul mouthed, bully girl and now we're supposed to believe she's the leader of Charleston polite society.

Wow - they both (Mandy in particular) seemed to be a huge argument for nature over nurture. I don't feel certain either way if she was involved or not but I know there's no way I would have been able to convict her. I mean come on, zero evidence. Mandy made my blood literally boil. Good Lord, another case of a woman throwing herself AND HER CHILDREN completely in the line of danger all to have a man. She brought this fresh out of prison killer into a home with what appeared to be at the time a pre-teen or young teenage daughter. Unforgiveable. She didn't tell any of the family about his history. And now appears to remain committed to him even after he slaughtered an absolutely amazing relative of hers. I mean, I don't know how you can get any more gross. Good luck looking in the mirror, Mandy.

Sex & The City posed the question best: "Why are there so many incredible single women and no incredible single men"?? It seems to grow even truer as women get older. I can't really begrudge these women for thinking he was a catch. What scared me the most was how Kasi's friends approved of him, liked having him around, and how he just kind of fit in nicely. They weren't blinded by love. I don't think women should not be open to it. So it's so frightening to think you can be fooled and conned and before you know it it's too late. The overly romantic stuff? Yuck. That would have totally the opposite affect on me but again, some women eat that up. Completely agree once John showed his true colors everyone should have run for the hills. Desperate needy women who can't survive without a man? That's on them. Desperate needy women who can't survive without a man and expose their children to these monster? Unforgiveable. Andrea's tennis skirt had me dying 😆
