S06.E04: Slam Dunks and Friendship Flunks

[Keywestclubkid]

Larsa and Marcus host a charity basketball game where all the ladies attempt, and fail, to play ball

Julia GIRL … Jesus Christ .. singing is not what you should be giving as a gift if it’s not your gift to give and girl it’s not your gift 

[FlyingEgret]

Must be the Thanksgiving Eve wine - but I really enjoyed the opera rehearsal scene - from Adriana actually playing the piano to the fabulous singing coach to Julia's terrified expression - and I even liked Adriana's backyard - yep, must the wine...

Lisa’s kids are adorable.

[Keywestclubkid]

Dead lol 

[Keywestclubkid]

She knows there are female basketball players right? 

[Stats Queen]

Adriana, you offered your house to Julia for the party. You did that knowing who would be invited. It’s disrespectful to Julia and Martina to try to dictate the guest list.

[Keywestclubkid]

God pushes people down for Alexia .. watch out Marysol she’s got God after you apparently lol 

Silent luxury… lol 

[goofygirl]

Larsa's FACE never moves!  When she smiled (should I say TRIED) that one time on the sprinter van, she couldn't quite get there.  Her face looks like that ALL THE TIME apparently.   I actually thought after her boasting about how competitive she was, and then she just SAT on the bench; to see her big ass run down the court one time really shocked me. She might have even made a basket!  But then again... There she was, braid over one shoulder, with the same look on her face.  Kinda  skeery.

I don't know, I don't see why Larsa had to run tell dat about Geurdy's cancer. Normally, if you told a trusted friend of your hideous diagnosis, you'd THINK you could trust them to hold your revelation.  But Geurdy did this on teevee....

I just can't stand Larsa!  And to see her not only on RHOM but at Garcelle's movie premier on RHOBH just kinda made me want to hurl.

 

[KenyaJ]

I covet Jody's pool/hot tub.

I feel like there were more people participating in Larsa's game than there were in the stands. Any money raised for Make-a-Wish is great, but I feel like two people with Larsa and Marcus's high profile and connections should've been able to raise more than $40,000.

[Straycat80]

The poor men on this show. From the opera teacher getting his leg humped by Adrianna’s dog to Marcus and Russell having to listen to the women screaming at each other and talking about farting. 
Alexia attempt at being a better person didn’t last long, apparently just until her birthday. What is she five? 
 

 

 

 

 

[funnygirl]

Alexia and Marysol are such assholes to Adriana. They poke at her and then when she pokes back, they gaslight her and act like she's the problem. Not that Adriana isn't without her own faults, but they are constantly looking for things to hate on her for. 

Todd and Alexia are definitely overcompensating - maybe for the cameras, maybe because there are marital issues. ?

She said maybe $40,000. How do you hold a charity event but you don't know the amount you raised. And given that someone received a gift worth over $70k at the event, they should have defintitely raised more than $40k.

I keep wondering how miserable you must be to be 50-something year old mean girls. I love how they accused Adriana of being sneaky and eavesdropping, when they were basically yelling shit about her from inside the stall. And how dare she confront them about it. Followed by Alexia bringing up that "Todd has an issue with someone, but it's not you or you." 

[Salacious Kitty]

Ugh Alexia. She has maybe half a redeeming quality in that she takes care of Frankie. Some credit taken away because she smothers him and won't allow him to reach his full potential. What was he doing in a hyperbaric chamber?

"Don't ruin Alexis's birthday with your flatulence" is my favorite phrase of the week.  My God, these women are perfect.

[ZettaK]

Adriana is jealous of the other women (she made nasty comments before this season), but she is especially jealous of Alexia. When Alexia was given the gold watch by Todd, the expression on her face said all. She also said that she hoped the gift would make up for the trouble in paradise (in their relationship) "because it seems like time's ticking". 

I agree though that Alexia is arrogant and thinks she is better than them because of Todd's wealth. 

I don't want to hear about their bodily functions. That was disgusting. 

The husbands/boyfriends were shocked (especially Marcus who is new to this) when witnessing the fights. 

I see that Alexia films with Peter a lot now, not only with Frankie.

I continue to love the editors for calling out Larsa and the fact that she told everyone about Guerdy's cancer. They can't stand her either!

I wish Lisa would have stood up for Adriana when she was talking about what Todd said. Adriana definitely lies about certain things (the whole Kanye penis thing) but in this case she was truthful since Lisa confirmed she heard it too.

Was there even a step and repeat? Lol.

Was there press?

Was there a rep from Make a Wish there?

I am 100% sure that Larsa could have picked different shorts for the teams to wear, she didn't have to go the long baggy shorts route, I mean not short shorts either but something in between.  

Martina is such a downer, it was like Julia getting jeered by Eyore. I hope Martina does not jeer or critique Julia when she sings because we have all seen Martina's artwork so she has no room to talk about talent.

The fact that the women heard about Guerdy's cancer by way of Larsa have to hide the fact they know and cannot console or give support to Guerdy, way to go Larsa, idiot.

Lisa arrives with her kids at Jody's house, the boy tries to remember his lines about a cat toy he has bought, the daughter wants to swim, Lisa plunks down on chaise while Jody deals with the daughter at the pool, Jody is a nice guy.

 

[dancingdreamer]

Jody seems very good with Lisa's children.  There's  still something ' off' between  Alexia  and Todd, she didn't  seem that enamoured  with the heavy watch Todd gave her either.

It was a pretty boring episode imho.

[Baltimore Betty]

I am always suspicious about gifts given on HW's shows, like they just wrap up something the HW already owns and they pretend that it is new. Or it is returned immediately after filming.

 

[Marley]

I like Lisa she doesn’t seem to join in on the pike on of ppl.

Alexia and Marysol are dbags but Adriana isn’t much better. She’s always trying to play the victim too. Trying to uninvite ppl from the party is lame.

I felt bad for Russell in the sprinter van lol. He was trapped with a bunch of screaming bitches. Something about him makes him so hot to me too idk what it is.

Marcus and Larsa meh.

Marcus and Larsa meh. 

Russell is trying hard to be on camera more this season than previously and everyone knows that that includes being in all the screaming scenes possible.

I read that (at this early hour), as Mucus and Larva and I don't think I'm wrong.

[goofygirl]

Done! Mucus & Larva it is from now on!! I love it!!

Yeah she was kind of dismissive about it. I didn't like the watch. It's too big for my taste. I like more delicate jewelry. I don't think Alexia and Todd are going to last very long. There is tension between them. He's a jerk but I feel for him being married to her. She's horrible. 

I know she has probably spent a lot of money on cosmetic surgery, but I find Larsa one of the least attractive housewives across the franchise. IMO, she looked much better in the flashbacks of several years ago. 

I wonder if Jody is a rebound relationship with Lisa. They seem friendly but not really romantic with each other. I'm not seeing much chemistry.

The giving of a watch is second to renewing of the vows in signaling a divorce is looming...remember (I think it was), Simon gave Tamra a watch for her 40th (it was a boat party where the kids made a mess of the boat with a food fight), and not long after Simon and Tamra divorced. There might be other HW couples that divorced after getting a watch, does anyone remember other couples that happened to?  Off topic but I discovered a Rolex forum, "Rolex and Divorce," it's so funny that it is a thing!

I am sorry but that cake in the locker room was a sad look, plopped on a folding table, people awkwardly standing around, this group is used to more of a to-do, I mean Larva even rented a faux grass elephant for Mucus's home coming after being away for five days (so dumb, right?), Alexia got Locker Room Chic complete with baggy uniforms and sweat and harsh lighting.

I think that's why I've always had a soft spot for Lisa. She doesn't have that meanness some of the others have.

He can definitely visit my screen more often! He is super hot, and seems like a really nice guy.

Yea the whole bday locker room set up was very underwhelming. I mean I personally wouldn’t really care but these women are used to more luxury. When they walked in and there was the lame folding table and a couple of snacks I was kind of surprised lol.

Vicki Gunvalson was so jealous of Tamra's watch! It was a white gold, and diamond Rolex. She would like Donn to get her one as a gift, but she eventually bought one for herself. There was a rerun of this episode relatively recently (when the latest OC season was airing). 

Paul gave Dolores Catania of the NJ HWs a matching watch to his (photo on IG). Does this count?

I don't think Larsa is attractive either. Guys want to be with her mostly because of the Kardashian association, and her ex husband's fame. 

[Chatty Cake]

They keep reigniting the same fight. Alexia and Adriana should not be allowed to film together. 

[zenme]

I don't need to celebrate my birthday that bad that it has to be in a men's locker room.  I don't want to have cake in the men's locker room either.  Locker rooms stink, I don't care how clean they are.  I don't need to have others acknowledge my birthday, nor do I have to have others be witness to my husband's gift-giving.  I'd be embarrassed if I were Alexia, but I don't think she has that piece.
