Looking forward to this one. 🍿

I think it was kind of shitty that BRAVO scheduled the reunion during the height of Meredith’s molting season.

Molting is as good a reason as any to explain the ugliness of that outfit...

[WaltersHair]

Meridith is an ugly crier. Either that, or her fillers are rebelling.

[bosawks]

I guess now it is her story to tell?

I’m worried that Jen’s dress is going to take out one of Heather’s eyes.

Poor Heather always get stuck sitting next to the attack feathers....first, from Meredith at Whitney's party, and now, with Jen at the reunion.

 

[WaltersHair]

These are some ugly dresses on this beautiful snow set. Rampant abuse of sequins and feathers.

I don't know if it's my TV, but it seems like Meredith's outfit doesn't even match....teal/turquoise-y suit and a dark green glitter shirt?  Those two colors just never go together, imo.  

I can't even get started on the maribou sleeves.  

[65mickey]

OMG Andy is going to ask Meredith is she wears a plastic breastplate .

[njbchlover]

What is with the one glove, Whitney?  She looks like she's wearing two different outfits - one side, lots of skin showing, the other, competely covered - it's like her dress has split personalities.

[StillHere]

Heather fetishized black men all of Season One, and has the gall tonight to the brand the only black woman on the cast a racist (and aggressive) while defending a confirmed + fired one. 

Jesus, make it stop.

I think we all now know why Brooks Marks clothes are usually just black and white.  The boy is color blind!

[Emmeline]

I am completely distracted by that hideous getup Meredith is wearing!  The clash of the forest green mesh with the teal suit, the ridiculous feathers on the sleeves, the bell bottom pants with the vertical slit at the bottom, the nude shoe.  It looks like an 8th grade home EC class project for a play, put together with a glue gun.  I just cannot understand what she was trying to do??

I know why this franchise is so boring. No one has any defined personality and they don't seem to know much about the world in general. No snappy comebacks or thinking in general. My opinion of course.

[Pi237]

They really need to mute the other housewives when someone is talking. No one gets to finish a sentence. It’s not only annoying, but as soon as someone seems to be spilling actual dirt, another will interrupt and hijack the conversation.

It's a Brooks Marks creation. 🙄

[Marley]

I’m not a Lisa fan but I hate gang ups so I’m not enjoying this really.

Heather is coming off annoying to me. She comes off as such a know it all bitch. I wish she would shut up. We get it you hate Lisa.

Jennie sucks.

Whitney sucks. I don’t like her. She’s so annoying and idiotic.

Meredith I can’t even look at. Of course that is a Brooks Marks creation. Such trash. Of course she fake makes up with Jen as a move.

Lame so far hopefully somehow better next week.

And that hair with 2 twisted sections of hair hanging down on either side of her face. I remember that stye in the 90's. Its just plain stupid looking. And of course Lisa with her long extensions that she periodically stroked. Why do people do this?  It's such a weird habit. 

[Keywestclubkid]

I feel like this whole thing could have been a 2 night reunion at the most ... good god the first part could have been a solid 10min that felt stretched out

[bosawks]

It was nice to see that Lisa is still feeling her own pain.

[LakeGal]

If Lisa is talking her hands are pointing and waving.  

[larapu2000]

Ugh, Jennie is clearly awful, but I loved her response when Meredith said she was coming for her all season.  Like.  WHEN, Meredith?  The most nonsensical statement out of all of the nonsensical statements last night.  Nothing even got discussed or resolved in any way.  

[Slider]

I started the season (and last season) hating Lisa, but after watching the second half of this season and last night's part 1 of the reunion, she's the only one I can stand right now.  The gang up on her is insane, and the way she is being treated by everyone is flat out awful.  

[nexxie]

Loved Heather’s read of Lisa as someone who follows the eighth grade guide on how to be a cool mean girl. Accurate.

Very glad the batshit crazy cult leader couldn’t make it!

Lisa’s thumbs. Sharpened hooks that could do serious damage.

Watching now because I had to tape it. Beautiful Frozen set, I was expecting Elsa and Anna to show up. And so much glitter and feathers! 
Although I did sympathize with Jennie about any racism she experienced I’m glad she was called out on all the dumb shit she said and did. Glad she’s off the show.

I usually like Heather but she’s coming across as too aggressive with Lisa. All them are but I always felt Heather was slightly fairer.

So far I feel Andy and the rest of the women are handling Jen with kid gloves, she’s not getting dragged like Erika did. 

[nexxie]

imo what seems like reunion pile-ons is really just the first opportunity cast members have to express outrage over things they recently saw on the show. Lisa played everyone in different ways and now gets to hear about it - funny how that works.

In addition to the Lego and inbred cousins comment, didn't Lisa state that Heather was a party girl in college, implying that good Mormon girl Heather slept around?

I'd say Heather has just been biding her time, stockpiling ammunition to take down Lisa. She and Whitney must spend hours on the phone, plotting. Heather revealing that Lisa's image of wealth and success is a mirage.

Andy going after Meredith a little bit.

Me: patiently waiting for Jen's comeuppance. Realizing I'm not gonna get it.

When did Jennie get called out for what she did?

Did I blink and miss it?

[pasdetrois]

I didn't watch all of the reunion episode, but I saw Jennie get called out for appropriating Black culture/communication style. The editors showed clips of her finger wagging and head waving. She denied that she was appropriating any culture other than "Long Beach."

Edited February 28, 2022 by pasdetrois

[tvfanatic13]

I think that Jen will get grilled in a later part. Andy won't shy away from that, especially when he made a point to leave in the edit his conversation where he told her that Erica didn't have the questions in advance. 

Glad to see the card about Jennie at the beginning.

MMV but this remains my favorite franchise.

She was shown yelling and swearing aggressively at the women at the beginning of the season, paraphrasing here, telling Mary to shut up about saying something. Throwing the glass at the finale party. Getting in Mary’s face when Mary was trying to walk away from her. She was accused by a viewer of talking ‘black’ and shaking her head and wagging her finger. Jennie said that’s just how she talked and expressed herself because she grew up in California. 

[Shannah Banana]

Since this was a very boring reunion, the only thing fun to talk about is what these HoWives were wearing.  Meredith's was the absolute worst outfit I've seen on any housewife ever.  Silly and ridiculous, an outfit only a mother could love.  Coming in second though, was Jen's monstrosity.  The bodice reminded me of a chandelier I once had, and the gloves, thank goodness she had to take them off.  Whitney's dress(es) was definitely different.  Short, long, gloved, ungloved, her outfit had a little bit of everything, which made her look more confused than edgy, which is what she was probably going for.  I especially hated that built up shoulder.  Ugh. 

 Jennie's had too much frou-frou.  The color was nice though.

That leaves Lisa and Heather, who looked the best, imo.  Their dresses were much more understated, simple and tolerable.

It is total BS.  She is a con woman, she STOLE from people.  Erika sucks ASS and deserves to be dragged, but she wasn't even the criminal.  Jen Shah is the criminal.  I hope she gets the maximum time.

She's a fan favorite and let it go to her head. 

Whitney is pretty but can never get it right with her hair. I would like to see shoulder length beachy waves on her. 

Jen must be medicated because she too calm. 

Did Heather and Whitney actually say some nice things about Mary? She makes sense alot of the time? The most racist bitch ever to grace my screen with playbacks of all the horrible things she said and they are defending her? They are dead to me now.

That was bizarre, Heather saying she respects Mary more after seeing the episodes!?!  I really like Heather on the show, but she always comes off bad on the reunions.  That comment was so stupid.  And they had to remind her that Mary called her bestie a whore.  

[nexxie]

One again, Bravo has succeeded in hiring a whole cast that viewers wouldn’t want to know - not sure that’s a sustainable business plan.

[Sage47]

Did Heather really say it’s okay that Jen called her “Shrek” and “Honey Boo Boo”, and that she can forgive her/any friends that harshly rip her behind her back? I could say Heather is a bigger person than I would be…or actually just that she’s a huge doormat. 

She even asked Jen, “you didn’t mean that right?” Wow. 

Jen is a sociopath. Andy was surprised to see her there with her legal woes but I wasn’t. She’s cool as a cucumber even amidst  criminal proceedings. All she cared about was being on teevee again, in her purple feathers. Eff that annoying legal case, she wanted to show off her shah-mazing self!

With all of the squawking, attacking, and feathers flying, I thought I was watching Hitchcock’s “The Birds.” 

Oh, nevermind! Suddenly we’re watching Mike Myers on SNL.

 

Segueing into

 

Disgusting racist  Asian stereotypes  a la “Breakfast at Tiffany’s.” Thankfully Andy Rooney’s racist portrayal isn’t in gifs, so we’ll go with this reaction shot.

 

Film noir private investigator 

 

Jennie’s bringing us to “Boyz in the Hood”

 

“Cutthroat Kitchen” action with the pot stirring and catering cancellation controversy.

 

And now we’re reading?

Agree, I wouldn’t be friends with any of these women, even for large sums of cash. Some creepy peeps for sure.

Forgot to say that Meredith pulled out all of her acting chops last night. The other women are on to her.

Mary also said that Heather looked inbred. But of course Heather will conveniently forget that because Mary said bad things about Lisa and that's all Heather cares about.

I continue to be baffled at Heather's blind loyalty to Jenn. I also think Jenn truly believes in her own mind that she is innocent so this whole pesky trial is just a sham. She's a lunatic. 

I'm not a Lisa stan, but it's crazy to me how somehow all the heat is on her when we have someone who made racist comments and another that defrauded elderly people. Jenn has said horrible things about everyone but escapes accountability. And then starts screaming why nobody wants to be her friend. Lisa is right that she held to a different standard and needs to be perfect all the time. And then Heather starts barking about Lisa's character? Um how about the character of her bff Jenn who will be soon going on trial for DEFRAUDING PEOPLE and could possibly spend 30 years in jail. She's also accusing Lisa of having a fake life when Jenn's life is a house of cards. 

Maybe I'm gullible but I bought Meredith's pain when she spoke about the stuff that was going on with her father and her family. That makes all the accusations about the memorial even worse.

Looks like her right thumb has Peyronies.

On re-watch, I'm laughing at Andy's 4th grade "By a show of hands, who thinks Lisa is the pot stirrer?"

By a show of hands who thinks Andy is the meanest on the reunion (excluding Jen Shah because she's a whole different kind of insanity)?

Jennie’s husband gave Lisa’s son an adjustment at 2 weeks? months? years? old?!  I was totally unaware babies needed chiropractors.
