Come sit by me.  I'm right there with you!!  I have some great wine and chips & dip.  We will be fine.

Sorta shocked that Katy & Tom got divorced.  What happened to their house?  Someone else lives there now, I guess.  Then, Tom and RAQUEL?? What the whut??

Just glad we aren't subjected to Brittney & Jax and Stassi and Beau.  

Good to see old Peter.  

And LaLa??  GIRL STAWP.  You are NOT the greatest bitch that ever walked the earth.  You may THINK you are.... But NO!!! You aren't.  You're just another baby mama.  Pick a side LaLa.  Burn it.

Peter?!? It’s like they just rolled him out from cryogenic freeze from when he was last seen like 4 years ago, and he has the exact same little pony tail, facial hair, and blue suit with exposed chest. Raquel couldn’t be less interested. Now she needs to put up with being sexually harassed to be on this show and have a fake waitressing gig?

Why is Lala wearing her pajamas to SUR? Damn. I was embarrassed to throw a coat over my PJs to bring my kid to Taco Bell drive-thru. Well, okay, I’m going to give Lala a pass. That’s a lot going on with Randall.

Sandoval’s mustache was Ariana’s choice?! That was a twist I didn’t see coming.

Aw. I kind of feel for Raquel. That was rough to be replaced within weeks. James was pretty cold saying that the new girl is the love of his life.

This is my kind of “work out.” Bougie Californians will go for any wellness scam.

This is ridiculous if everyone (ie, Lala and Katie) is all mad that Schwartz played pickleball with Randall. The guys all became friends with each other, and Lala can’t just decide that other grown adults can never speak to each other again.

Now Katie is wearing a little silk nightie to this hotel?!? Okay, I’m out of the loop. Apparently pajamas in public is the hot new look. COVID athleisure wear changed everything. Now there’s a naked guy only wearing a towel?!? What is happening here?!?! Oh, there’s a pool so maybe he was just swimming, but I’m going to go with my initial reaction of this new casual fashion trend—throw on a towel and hit the town.

[chick binewski]

The moral integrity Lala has displayed trying to live through Randall doing to her exactly what he did to his ex whilst Lala pretended not to know about it is truly inspiring.

 

[goofygirl]

Someone needs to draw LaLa a picture, because little miss righteous ain't doing it!!  When she FINALLY catches a clue, we'll be much further along.  Otherwise, I'm not holding my breath.  MORON.

I haven't missed the chucklekfucks at all.....

What I HAVE missed is this forum snarking on them....

Am I a stinker for hoping that whole "karma" and "world burning down" quote shown in the previews is the ex Mrs Randall throwing it all back in the Grifter's face?

Hahahahaha!  We need an emoji for choking on our wine when things are this hilarious! 😂

Of course James has a young, hot girlfriend who's the love of his life - his ego would permit nothing less!  That's why he went looking for her so fast - he needed her firmly ensconced before filming started!

"Lala" is still such a vulgar creep.

Poor Peter - I always remember Jax saying, "He can get dates - but he has no game."  On display tonight 😄

I felt bad that Katie and Tom got divorced - but they each look better than they have in years, so there's that 😁

Every time I caught Scheana out of the corner of my eye or at the side of the screen I thought she was Kristen!

[Marley]

I really don’t care about Raquel at all honestly.

Peter is annoying and embarrassing to watch.  He’s so fucking corny and skeevy. Seems like a fake show date with Raquel.

Lmao Sandoval insulting LaLa was cracking me up. It’s true tho I don’t buy what LaLa is saying now. She wanted to just lock down that child support and shit from Rand.

So because Ally doesn’t have overblown lips that means she’s a thin lipped bitch? Shut the fuck up Lala.

That blurry face guy sounded creepy.

I don’t like LaLa but Schwartz is 100% weak let’s all be real. It’s been documented for most of this show lol.

I do approve of Schwartz insulting LaLa in the previews tho lol.

So far so good I think.

I thought Scheana was Kirsten when she first came on too and was confused for a bit what year it was lol.

Edited February 9, 2023 by Marley

[Drogo]

Let me get this straight— we’re in a season where everyone is either single, in a surface level relationship, in an open relationship with pornstaches, or actively sleeping around… except Scheana?! 
 

…My how the turns have tabled.  
 

There may be hope for this show yet.  This is the season Laura Lee deserved.

I don’t like Lala and I do like Schwartz, but, yeah, I can see why she is mad and doesn’t want him around her.  She’s not telling anyone else they shouldn’t hang out with Schwartz or taking it out on his friends.  But she’s in a very nasty court case and she has to be able to trust people around her not to tell Randall anything.

I was originally going to say Schwartz shouldn’t be hanging out with Randall because he’s a slimeball criminal, but they all ready knew that about him, I think.  The only thing would be if he was a genuine Weinstein-style rapist, vs the garden variety “fuck me for a part in my terrible movie” casting couch sleaze.

[Cheezwiz]

Ah I have missed these delightfully snarky forums!

Good Lord, Peter is just pure cringe. You can see Raquel visibly wincing every time she's in his presence. 

This poor Ally girl really doesn't know what she's in for with DJ Muppet Baby. Run away, Ally!

Tweedle Dee & Tweedle Dum STILL haven't opened their damn bar? And they've poured half a million into it? I did like some of the wallpaper, but JFC! Get a move on!

Sandoval was 100% correct about the whole Lala thing. As if she didn't know she was hooking up with a slimy creep in the first place. I feel like she's overcompensating with her outrage. And she voluntarily reproduced with that slug. Ugh.

What was the deal at the party with that super creepy dude in the towel with the blurred face? Was that a pick-up attempt?

What the hell was Ariana crimping her hair with in that scene where she was getting ready? It looked like a space-blaster from a sci-fi movie!

All the gals looked pretty great. The guys are all still dopes. I got nothing else for this episode.

What was the deal with the asshole wearing nothing but a towel telling Raquel and Ally to "get off his sofa!"? If this place was an actual hotel and he was a hotel guest, it's not "his" sofa in the front of his room.

 

Is this the season Pirate Peter ceases to seem like a decent fellow? It sounded like he uses his position as manager at SUR to bang chicks. Is his attempts at dating Raquel an attempt at getting more screen time this season?

 

Wow, James. It took you three weeks to find a replacement for Raquel? 

 

Did Arianna have work done on her face? She looks different now.

[Rebky]

When James' new girl was rhapsodizing about how awesome James is to Rachel, I would have ever so sweetly replied, "Honey, you are enjoying the rewards of years of hard work on my end. He was an absolute hot mess. Don't get it twisted."

Lisa seems over James' bs. Katie looks great single. Raquel can't even fake being into Peter. James looks uncomfortable in some scenes. For the first time I enjoyed Ariana and she looks really good this premier. Raquel was in a lot of scenes,she seems happier,that's great. Peter seems to want screen time imo. 

[Mahamid Frauded Me]

So Lala still has the trash mouth, she is pissed because she was promised the world by what may be a mini Harvey or drug cartel king pin (haha). Had she just told Schwarz to stay away until after the custody hearing, I could get that, but he has never been the smart one in the bunch, actually none of them are. I find Peter gross. He looks like he hasn't showered in weeks. I think a while back didn't he cut his hair and was somewhat clean shaven and he looked decent. I too also thought Scheana was Kristen when they all met at the restaurant, glad to see she ditched the extensions 

[Katie W]

Tom Schwartz is so gross. He was on WWHL last night and admitted to cheating multiple times on Katie. I'm really hoping he gets a "villain" edit this season. Katie was so right when she said he never takes responsibility for anything.  Katie looks great now that she no longer has him weighing her down.

They knew. They all knew.

I have no clue why Schwartz continued to associate with Randall and am skeptical it was to play pickleball.

I found LaLa's threat to go "scorched earth" and "burn bridges" to be amusing.

I’m sure this is not a popular opinion but I thought that Raquel stayed with James until she became a full time cast member.  I wonder if Raquel is pursuing her desire to work in physical therapy for children?  I hope that’s not the intention of his new girl.  I don’t think Ally looks anything like his mother except for the dark hair.

The 2 Tom’s were on WWHL and it seemed so awkward.  Tom Swartz kept talking with his hand in front of his mouth.  Andy even mentioned it.  When Andy asked Schwartz questions he kept looking to Sandoval for the answer.  I always liked Schwartz and I hope he finds love again.  

Sandoval seemed off on WWHL.  The relationship between the 2 Tom’s didn’t seem the same.  After hearing he wasn’t around the new bar for months while starting the new band is worry some for the business.

I think Andy asked him if he was seeing Taylor and he said something along the lines of I'm not because Shep is my boy and a Maverick.  WTAF?  It just bothers me but doesn't surprise me that Schwartz would idolize a loser like Shep Rose.

How long has "Tom & Sandy's" been under construction? It appears that Flat-Iron Tom is still acting like a squirrel and constantly buying things for crazy ideas for the place he had the previous night. I remember last season his crew were getting tired of him wasting money and constantly making them change plans and redo their work. I haven't heard anything about that sandwich shop Katie and Arianna were pretending a work on, either so who knows which one will be completed first, if either of them? 🤷‍♂️

I saw photos of Ariana before the premiere and she looked different. Lip fillers (but not anything too obvious)? Just a little bit of cheek fillers (again not too obvious)?

Schwartz and Sandy's is open.  It still seems like a Lisa Vanderpump type of restaurant though and not an independently owned one like they were doing so IDK what happened there.  From the pictures online it looks decorated like TomTom and Sur, etc...

Not sure about the sandwich shop though.  But it will probably be another Vanderpump/Bravo gig *sigh*

I think it was probably like they have in Vegas, or a day club I went to in Tulum - a "bottle service" bed.  You get the bed for a few hours, it is thousands of dollars and you still have to pay for the alcohol.  So I actually don't blame him for telling them to get lost.

Yeah this is becoming the Raquel Show and I don't want to watch that.

Not that I want Stassi or Jax back or anything!  But Raquel is as interesting as paint drying.

I guess the Tom's ran out of money and magnanimous multimillionaire Lisa Vanderbucks bailed them out.

Agree on both of these. Lala has always been too full of herself and big on performative "I'm bad" behavior. But good lord, the Toms are just so loathsome in their smugness, that I have to kind of root for Lala to make them uncomfortable in some way, no matter how small.

The Toms were on WWHL (because of course Andy loves the smug, slacker dudes) and Tom S was waffling on if he still is friends with Randall even after the #metoo stuff has come out. Flat-iron Tom had clearly got the memo that that's a step too far as he could not support waffler-Tom S in persisting with Randall. 

I know everyone think's Katie's hair is some kind of middle-aged bob, but I love how sleek it looks and think it's a good look for her. 

 

[Emmeline]

Didn’t Katie and Ariana go to Randall for backing on the sandwich shop late last season?  I believe he agreed to help fund them but considering everything that happened I’m sure that fell through.

Yes, and it was accompanied by some BS drama with Arianna being late and Randall pretending to be a busy businessman. At the reunion, they said something about him subcontracting out his shares to other investors and the deal falling thru when he and LaLa broke up. 

[bichonblitz]

LaLa is such a narcissist. Did she really have a meeting to tell all of them if they continue to be friends with Randall she will cut them off? Ohhhh, such a threat. I love Sandoval in his interviews saying everything about her that we are all thinking. 

Sorry to see James drinking again. It's just a matter of time before it gets out of control. 

[ZettaK]

Schwartz and Sandy's opened in November. The decoration is maximalistic.

 

Tom Schwartz said on Andy Cohen's show that the couple sold their house.

Gosh. I love the opening. How much did that cost? Everyone gets to glam out, but Raquel has to wear that ugly, cringy, Dahling-look-how-short-and-diaphanous-your-server’s-dress-is! uniform.

[hoodooznoodooz]

Schwartz is a weasel, but he still makes me laugh.

(paraphrasing:) “Divorce” is too dramatic. We shouldn’t say, “I want a divorce.” We should say, “I want to start a new, happy life… without you.”

But could not show the same courtesy to a female cast member/coworker about associating with her ex as friends?  (and she had more valid reasons because of child custody and all of the information she was learning about Randall's life-allegedly)  Schwartz will always support the boys but when a female has an actual valid reason he will trivialize it.  

WTAF? 

[RoseAllDay]

Just started watching this episode. RE: Tom and Katie’s divorce. Who, really, didn’t see that coming? There were always three people in that marriage, and it only got worse with the business startups. Schwartz’s constant dependence on Sandoval…ugh.

Last season’s reunion episodes leading up to the premiere showed pretty well the competition between Katie and Sandoval. While she’s no shrinking violet, she really never had a chance.

[sandwoman]

Raquel's interactions with Peter are soooo awkward to watch. I really hope they don't try to pretend this is an actual relationship. She's not a good reality show actor. He's even worse. Just staawwwp

[tvfanatic13]

All right, I’ll say it…. I miss Stassi, Kristen and Jax (runs and hides)

[hoodooznoodooz]

I thought that maybe Raquel was not as dumb as we thought she was. 
 

But it’s so obvious that James is just trying to cope and lash out at her by falling truly, madly and deeply for Ally.

He deliberately chose to say, “She’s the love of my life.” He wants Raquel to think that their relationship did not mean that much to him. Because it really upset him that she ended it. Raquel wounded his ego.

They're awkward to me for different reasons. I think it's inappropriate for someone to be dating her manager and it feels like he's trying to coerce her into doing it.

Lala and Schwartz come from backgrounds that left much to be desired.  Education is lacking.  They are wannabes and attach themselves to anything that might lift them.  Anything.

[hoodooznoodooz]

WWHL:

Schwartz really didn’t answer one question without throwing it to Sandoval. He cannot sneeze without making sure Sandoval is on the same page.

Andy gave Schwartz a peanut butter and jelly sandwich. Schwartz had only eaten them separately as sandwiches (A jelly sandwich? You really are eight years old). Andy spoke to Schwartz as if he were a toddler. “Peanut butter A N D  jelly… What do you think? Do you LIKE it?”

Andy asked Schwartz, “What size feet do you wear?”

[RoseAllDay]

Sorry, but I’m having a really hard time feeling sorry for Lala and her tears. She was more than willing to partake of all the “benefits” that Rand had to offer before and after they married. You can’t tell me that someone who is supposedly savvy and smart was totally oblivious to his skeeviness. Blind eye, more like. I do feel sorry for Ocean.

James — sigh. Meets the “love of his life” three weeks after breaking up with Raquel, and forgets her name when talking to LVP? Says he can “handle” drinking again? Man is obviously on a hard rebound, can’t be by himself, and clearly jealous of Raquel and Peter. But to be fair, Both James and Raquel are using their SOs to get back at each other. This will not end well.

I have to say, though, I’m liking Raquel — she’s finding her voice. 

I’m going to try to stick with this season. Looks to be more entertaining than the Howives horseshit.

Half a million???  You know, I wonder if off camera and not to be announced, Lisa and Ken bought out their share of TomTom so they could finance this bar and even then, Lisa and Ken are percentage partners.  After all, where did these two suddenly get the knack and knowledge to put together the plan and run a business.  The only thing they did with respect to the construction of TomTom was act like assholes at the design meeting, swing a sledge hammer a few times, and then act like they were the majority owners.

Successful businesswoman Lisa Vanderbucks always owned about 90% of TomTom. I would not be surprised at all if she bought out their solo attempt because Schwartz is too lazy and Sandavol is running around like a mouse on an exercise wheel accomplishing nothing.
