*shallow comment warning*

WHY does Kyle constantly lick the corners of her mouth?!  It's positively reptilian and I do NOT understand why, after eleventy-million episodes of this shitshow (because you know she watches her scenes time and time and TIME AGAIN) she does not rid herself of this disgusting habit.

 I'd post a gif here, but I've less than no idea how to do it and for those of you who haven't noticed it, you lucky souls, I don't want to give you nightmares. 

I noticed it too.  All of them who’ve had their lips pumped up are constantly licking their lips.  I figure they must be uncomfortable.  Too much lip gloss too.  When they eat something, the fork never touches their lips.  Those over done lips would drive me batso.  I can’t take Rinna either.  Those stupid outfits she wears and the jogging suits are horrible, just like her.  She looks like a skinny clown.

I had never heard of Erika, Crystal, or Dorit before this show.

Me neither. Garcelle is way more famous than most of the cast and so much more humble about it.

ETA: This thread says "Part 2", did I miss a "Part 1" of this dinner party?

It took me forever to figure out that Part 1 was the Allison DuBois episode.

It is so funny that Erika is dissing small towns because when the lawsuits are completed, Erika won’t have enough to stay in BH and will have to go back to a small town in GA. I figure she will walk out with less than 5 million, which won’t be enough in BH but will make her grand dame in a small town.

I only started watching this show a few weeks ago, but the only one I'm enjoying so far is Garcelle. I've liked her for a long time, though.

Well, I mean, Kathy is a hoot, even if it's her acting as such. Neither she nor Garcelle are boring. I'll keep tuning in.

 I don’t even know why Bravo let her be on.  She’s annoying to watch already.

Exhibit A posted above:  #1 Bravo show this week.   Erika is dumb enough and arrogant enough to take this as some big accomplishment. 

Sadly, I don't think Erika will be doing any jail time or even end up with less than she has now.  Unlike Madoff,  Giardi stole money from poor people who can't fight back - which is probably how he got away with it for so long.   Their "voice" aka their attorney screwed them.   Madoff ripped off a bunch of wealthy powerful people.   Unfortunately there is often a difference in outcomes between these two groups in our judicial system. 

Besides that, Erika will gold dig some other old guy and keep her fame with SM.   I quit watching RHONJ when Teresa went to jail but I hear she's back and has more money than she did before so... 😩

Come sit by me, because I kept digging through my DVR looking for Part I and thought it had skipped recording Part I.

If you're interested and have Peacock TV, I believe they offer all episodes and all seasons.  

The early seasons are fabulous.

They re run them on all day marathons on BRAVO sometimes. Just a couple of weeks ago they ran season 1 which was really good. It was pre-Brandi and Camille at her absolute worst, but I still felt sorry for how blindsided she was by Kelsey's affair and dumping her. Oddly  I think she truly was clueless.

The way she said it, that Rob worked with some guys who had been "MeToo'd" absolutely does minimize and dismiss the sexual harassment victims.  By saying the men had been "MeToo'd" It actually makes the sexual harassers sound like they had been victimized by the women accusing them of sexual harassment or abuse.

I am not a Crystal fan but I think, considering the context of her comment, she did mean that Rob's association with guys accused did not harm him. Not that she was dismissing the victims. For one thing, I don't think she is dumb enough to publicly dismiss the victims. I think she generally is pretty careful what she says.

I too, don’t think Erika will face the consequences many of us desire. I’m mentally preparing for her to survive, as cockroaches tend to, but I’m not prepared for a redemption/Phoenix arc. Possible? Probable?

[blixie]

Quote

And once again by saying this she implies that not only that it DID not cause him harm but that it SHOULD not have caused him harm, and that is hot garbage. He should be harmed if he's hiring sexual abusers/harassers.

Once this lawsuit is over, I think Erica will ultimately cash in on her notoriety by performing and doing reality TV  -- ironically, much like Roxie Hart, the character she played in the musical Chicago.

I was obsessed with Kathy’s table and had to look up the Baccarat candle holders. They are sold out and $950.00 a piece!

Im so disgusted in these women supporting this lying liar who lies. What happened to the outrage for the widows and orphans? They are all on the wrong side of this story. Bravo has one way to smooth this over.  Fire Erikka. And I hope the lawyers get to descend on her tacky designer wardrobe and jewelry, not to mention the furniture and things she “stole” from Tom’s house.  She can go live in a studio apartment in north Hollywood for all I care. Her pontificating about her small house, which is nicer than anything I can ever hope for makes me see red.  

 

Bet these are being duplicated somewhere as we speak for about 50 bucks.  Also, Erika was probably sending clothes and jewelry she liked somewhere for safe keeping, unless the Lawyers took pictures of everything.

Same here.  I only started watching again when Tom got in trouble.  Same with Jersey.  I figured the ratings would go up when they got in trouble for each show.  The only ones I like are Sutton and Garcelle.  Too bad Garcelle doesn’t transfer to New York.  I like her the best.

Hulu has all of the housewives. I subscribe to the ad free version and there is some other good programs that I have discovered - not to mention being able to dip into vintage sitcoms like Mary Tyler Moore and Will & Grace.

Does anyone really think that when he walks into a room there is an immediate round of deferential whispers referencing The Lion King?  On that he shared directing credit with another person whose name I would have to look up again, because probably like most people I've never watched an animated feature and taken note of the director.  Stuart Little 1 & 2 don't exactly put him on the level of Scorsese, Coppola, Hitchcock, Spielberg, Cameron, Tarantino, etc. He seems like a nice enough guy who has enjoyed some success but those are probably three of his biggest box office credits and they date  back to the 1990's and the early 2000's. I wonder just how well known they are in Hollywood circles today.

I had to Google her husband. At first, I thought he was related to Rebecca Minkoff.

Re:  the women's lips.  All of 'em.  I will never understand the over-Botoxed, over-filled lips.  I think it just looks so stupid.

I don't know if it's still available on bravo website but there was a video this week where split screen of Garcelle/Sutton are asked about the lip reader at Rinna's lip launch party and Sutton laughing about how accurate it could be as none of them have their original lips ;)

It was in that clip where somebody was telling her she was over-reacting to something. They said, "She just said whatever and you're acting like she killed your son/child." And Erika went into a hissy fit about how terrible it was to talk about killing her son, as if they'd actually done that, because didn't they know how terrible her life was worrying about him all the time. The idea was that he was a cop, and so she had to worry about his safety every day, it's such a dangerous job (it's not actually one of the most dangerous jobs). Then she added "especially now"--clearly implying that because of the BLM movement her son, specifically, was in so much danger and mothers like her were suffering even more.

So of course the woman who thinks it's rich, white mothers of policemen were the ones with the most to worry about wrt their sons (as opposed to, you know the obvious OTHER mothers related to BLM) would now demand sympathy for herself and dismiss the victims of Tom's fraud.

Kathy's dinner was so wasted on this group, which is a shame since she spent 4 (!) days planning it!  I really cannot help but love her.  I was very disappointed in Kyle, and usually she doesn't bother me too much.  Dorit showed a glimmer of redemption.  Rinna looked, acted, and remained completely annoying.  Crystal is a snob. Erika looked bad, bad, bad and I hope this all comes to bite her BIG time. Sutton - dear God, that outfit was just horrifying but she held her own and I'm proud!  Garcelle looked beautiful and I'm impressed with her compassion to Erika even after EJ snarled "You can let go of me now..."  Bitch.

Everything food wise is thrown in the garbage.  They don’t eat.  Maybe a little lettuce they nibble on.  Rinna weighs about 90 lbs I figure.  I don’t know where she gets her energy.  What happened with HSN ?

While I am no Teresa “fan” she at least paid restitution. How much? Don’t know. Did it cover any of the contractors they stole from? Also don’t know. But she did pay financially. 
The Jen Shah drama for SLC just happened to be caught on camera at the beginning of filming so I understand why she’s still on the show as it wasn’t shot recently.

Maybe I watch too many movies but how crazy would it be if the trophy wife got duped by a man with a ponzi scheme. She makes a great patsy doesn't she. After some of the crazy podcast/shows I've seen like Dirty John couldn't help but think about it.

Possibly Tom did trap Erica in a Ponzi scheme, but his forgetting everything may be self protection from remembering the Erica we all got to see at Kathy's dinner tonight!

It’s mocking Alzheimer’s — using a terrible disease as a legal dodge. It’s like people who claim insanity. It’s a big FU to people who do have mental health issues. Every chance it gets, Bravo needs to replay all the footage showing a completely lucid Tom looking at a contract and making travel plans, and charming the pants off the women with smooth talk — and that was from last season. I believe the “horrible accident” was in the season prior.
