S10.E01: The Crown Isn't So Heavy

[Door County Cherry]

Airs April 15th, 2020

Quote

Kyle's new clothing line brings the women together for New York Fashion Week; Erika takes Lisa Rinna, Teddi and Denise on a trip down memory lane.  Denise introduces the group to her friend, Garcelle Beauvais.

Ouch - the episode title sounds like a dig at LVP.  Either that or it’s a quote from one of the wannabe queen bees.

As someone who loves the show for everyone and still excited for it without LVP, I thought the same and find it rude and unnecessary. 

[Mindthinkr]

I’m so-so on their new tag lines. 
 

Why is Kyle packing for NC ? 

[ShawnaLanne]

Kyle talking about deciding to do a fashion line and then faux humble about deciding to do New York fashion week with her tacky assed resort wear speaks so much to insane privilege.

Good God, Kyle is making Dorit seem like a genius.

The cultural differences between the New Jersey and BH housewives is perfectly expressed in their attitudes to castmates stripping.

When did Kyle morph into Connie Selleca?

[Mindthinkr]

Kyle will sell it online, in boutiques and hotel gift shops. Hilton...hint hint. 

[bosawks]

The thought of Kyle having specific ideas let alone ideas is bewildering.

[ShawnaLanne]

Damn it Kyle, I'm actually vibing with Dorit because of her dumb assed privilege. She makes Dorit look down to earth.

Like Ramona and her friend on RHONY, they all use the same plastic surgeons as their friends and then can all be twinsies (insert gag emoji)

Kyle has little to no relationship with Kathy. So much for the hotels. 😁

[bosawks]

Being judgy about the legitimacy of someone’s stripper past is why I watch the Housewives.

Awww...poor Kyle (not). This is a vanity project.

I mean that was awesome. Denise's "shade" was definitely less obnoxious than Lisa's.

[ShawnaLanne]

Garcelle looks like a Barbie. Her hair is gorgeous. 

[bosawks]

Any fashion that necessitates storing on what looks to be some heads on a pike staring at me is a hard stop for me.

[ShawnaLanne]

"If you're paying that kind of money it doesn't really matter how you look." Lisa Rena after viewing her friend in Dolce. I mean, that's rough. True, but rough. 

[FlyingEgret]

Even Dolce makes mistakes... (tm Countess Luann I believe)

[Mindthinkr]

I would not have tried on that crown for the simple reason that I would not want to be liable if it fell and broke. 

[Keywestclubkid]

Oh Denise isn’t starting out looking to good this season.... snipping at a waiter ... it’s my family not yours .... gurl 

[bosawks]

The struggle with bangs is probably the most relatable Kyle has ever been.

[Keywestclubkid]

You get judgy? You just sat in a bra and clown pants on national television... girl you have no room to pass judgment on anyone

What the HELL did she do to her face????  I can't even begin to figure it out!! 

[Axie]

The bad news about the new chick is that if you hear her voice from another room, she sounds like Luann.

 I didn’t even recognize Kyle, and, is she wearing colored contact lenses?  Why?

[nexxie]

Okay, I’m over Sutton.

Rick and Kathy have no relationship with the hotels anymore and barely ever had one but his dad sold the chain  in 2007.

[Keywestclubkid]

Kyle this isn’t your fashion show ... you know fucking zero about basic things .... 

[bosawks]

I love that one model who looked like, “this shit is entertaining!”, watching Kyle and magenta hair.

[RealHousewife]

Garcelle is really freaking beautiful.

[Mindthinkr]

I understand that Kyle would have anxiety about her upcoming fashion show, but she didn’t have to snap at people. 

“I’m hungry”. Kyle replies ”Eat an almond” 

“Would you like some water?” Kyle: “I want a cocktail”  Her tone was everything. 

[nexxie]

Yikes, this situation with Denise seems like tmi.

[Axie]

Ooooh, this is going to get messy!

And, again, Brandi's dirty fingerprints are all over another bad situation.  

[FlyingEgret]

Never thought I would compare Kyle's clothing line with Dolce, but I didn't like any of the fashion shown tonight from either designer.  Guess it's a good thing I can't afford either one so my friends won't have to lie to my face about how expensive I look...

[Keywestclubkid]

Wouldn’t Brandi be a little bit more sensitive IF she was having an affair with Denise? I mean with the way she was introduced on this show has the woman done wrong by her husband and Leann? To actually do a “cheating” storyline just seems Tacky and to on the nose  

[LibertarianSlut]

I have been waiting for this!!  

I like starting off with a trip.  That hasn’t been done before, that I know of.  

I hate Kyle’s bangs.  Whoever did that to her is not her friend.  She couldn’t have just worn a wig for the Halloween thing?!?

I see some things haven’t changed—Denise is bored by fashion, and still allegedly having sex with Aaron every day.  So two thousand and who cares.  She’s so naive not to have a lawyer.  It’s not just about her, it’s about her kids, and if she doesn’t show up for her court date, they should get a guardian at litem or something.  I bet dollars to doughnuts that was the proper tequila at the restaurant.  How in the world would she know if she hadn’t tasted it?  Was she just doing that rich person thing where you are mad about someone said about you in the media, so you take it out on the waitstaff?  That would be dreadful.

I love Erika’s narrative about moving to NYC at 18, as if there was no baby involved.  I thought the visit to the bikini bar in NJ was an odd placement.  Nothing came out of it.  

I also love that Dorit says the judge presiding over her lawsuit is “stressing a resolution.”  Yeah...in whose favor?  She forgot to mention that part.  

I love Rinna’s look in her TH.  I love the hair, the pink shirt, the pink and purple and blue eye makeup—it’s so over the top that it works for me.  I liked the Dolce outfit in the same spirit.  It was just campy and fun, not super chic or anything.

I was predisposed to liking Garcelle when my husband told me she played Ophelia Love in Arrested Development.  Her backstory was interesting.  The vibrator stuff was a little new.  I think it’s better to use a vibrator all day than to be a single mom running around with fuck buddies, so there’s that.

Kyle and Mauricio call each other “love bean”?  I just threw up in my mouth.  He’s getting stoned now?  I thought the pot was a one-time thing at Camille’s wedding. 

Oh my God, I loved Sutton being snobby and bitchy about fashion and labels.  Some of these women really need to be called out, and even if the person doing it (especially if the person doing it!) lives in a glass house, I’ll take it.  That was a great line that God could come down and do a line with Tom Ford and she wouldn’t care.  

I also loved Sutton’s tough love idea of “let them cry” with regard to babies.  Teddi, are you listening?  If you don’t coddle your next kid the way you coddled Cruz, maybe she won’t have embarrassing tantrums In front of your friends when you leave for the Boy George concert.  

Kyle should have hired one project manager that she really trusted, and let that person run everything.  Because she was clearly out of her element and making people uncomfortable.  

I had completely forgotten about Paris Hilton.  Thanks Kyle!

I don’t love the idea of putting amateurs in a runway show.  It should be the one place where you cannot social media climb into it.  You should have the dimensions to make the clothes look good, and the aesthetic that the designer wants.  I don’t love how democratized high fashion has become in the past 10 years.  I know that Yolanda Hadid doesn’t agree with me.  I’m good with that.

Denise is sort of a pig.  She shouldn’t let the camera flash blind her on the way out.

Since Lisa keeps shit about her private life so real I'd love to hear, from her, all the rumors about Harry Hamlin. She never did address the rape rumors, I want her to keep it real. Address that head on. Show her real life. 

I don't think I'm going to like Denise much this season, but I think from the preview I'm going to despise Lips and Kyle.

Ugh, Brandi.  She’s so gross.  I really hope it’s not true that Denise got anywhere near her in a sexy time way.

Sutton was getting on my nerves with the fashion snob thing, until she basically didn’t give a crap about Dorit’s name dropping.  And then images of her dismissing Dorit’s over the top Chanel accessories made me instantly love her.

Kyle had the cast and her friends in the show for publicity.  Plus, 45 looks?  That’s a lot of models.

 

[Axie]

I don’t know why anyone would be surprised that someone who was married to Charlie Sheen might be a tad sleazy.

I read that Sutton had LVP’s spot and got demoted to “friend of” or pot stirrer. 🤷🏻‍♂️

I thought I had heard that (friend status) as well, and she didn’t have a tag line did she?  But she’s listed as part of the cast on the Bravo website.  I guess we’ll see if she gets added to the intro at some point or not.

Halloween was filmed there in Wilmington. 

[HeddaGabler]

I'm sure all the expert staff in NY just loved Kyle, the micro-managing amateur, making their jobs that much more difficult. Also, Kyle got a part in Halloween, and now her eyes are set on "permanent surprise". Yeesh, take it easy on the ol' botox.

[Ms Blue Jay]

Sutton made a horrible impression on me.

I decided to tune in after hearing that Garcelle Beauvais is on the show.  What a legend!  And it actually looks kind of interesting.  We'll see if I can last the season.  I had to FF all the non-Garcelle parts at the beginning.

[emma675]

I thought it was a fun start but it definitely highlighted problems to come.

Was Kyle's line about "eat an almond" a dig at Yolanda?

I can't help it, I love Rinna and Erika. They are so over the top and it's entertaining. 

Garcelle is stunning and looks like a fun broad to party with. Sutton was a little too bitchy for my taste.

Denise is an idiot if she's skipping child support hearings and doesn't have a lawyer. And if the stuff with Brandi is true? Ewwwwww.

I don't know much about tequila but blanco made me think it's likely related to color and Google fu seems to indicate that.  

[BusyOctober]

Sutton must be hella rich because no one is telling her she looks fucking ridiculous. That pink sheer tulle with the bra???? She looked stoooopid, and she looked about 30lbs heavier than she probably is!  But I guess if some socialite with sacks of cash is willing to drop it in my store, I’d keep my mouth shut too.  Jeezus, talk about the Emperor's New Clothes... 

 I am no fashionista, I don’t have money to afford “couture “ or even the  stuff hanging at Neiman  Marcus, so maybe I’m just not intelligent enough to understand why gaudy, shiny, loud mix-matched prints with oversized accessories is considered desirable.  D+G, Versace and now Kyle’s collection competing for the “What the Fugly Hell” prize.  

I am really liking Garcelle.  I hope she doesn’t turn into a villain.

Maybe it’s all the COVID-19 deprivations and making do with less, but I have found myself irrationally irked by RHONY and now these women of BH.  I was looking forward to both shows new seasons as my escape to fantasy land, but it’s hard for me to get vicariously involved or give two shits about these people, or their “storylines” so far.  I know these shows were filmed well in advance of the Corona virus taking over the world.  But it is kind of jarring to see gold tiaras and $40,000 a night suites and spoiled rich offspring tagging along on Mommy’s latest hobby, with everything going on right now.

 I am also worried about how everyone will turn on Denise as this year’s Mean Girls victim. I am not a huge fan of hers, but I hate how every year, someone these women all professed to “love like a sister” is suddenly treated like a shit-stained trail of toilet paper stuck on their Louboutins. Why anyone would listen to anything Brandy Fucking Shit-Stirrer Granville has to say, I don’t know.  She is trash.

[Axie]

Garcelle is on WWHL and Andy was asking her questions about her arrival and her answers were kind of interesting-  Who gave you the worst reception?  Kyle.  2).  Who has the biggest ego?  Kyle  3).  Which Housewife would you not want to be quarantined with?  Kyle 4).  What did you think of the leopard print outfit Kyle wore?  Trash.  Hmmm.
