The reality TV series chronicles a group of close friends who transition from the nightlife of West Hollywood to family life in the Valley. The show will depict their journey as they manage their businesses, relationships, and friendships.

I don't how to start a new forum so I just added this to the VPR thread for now.  Mods will take it down if it's not correct.

I'm going to go out on a limb and say that their version of "close friends" is different than my version of "close friends".

IKR, I noticed that on VPR as well.  Schwartz keeps saying we're family, we're friends.  Like really?!

The OG cast were friends (not Scheana until a lot later, and she is not really anymore).

I was watching old reruns on Bravo with a young Schwartz. He looked a lot like my late father who passed when I was 27 (but my father was dark blond with green eyes). I just saw an old photo from when my father was in his 30s.

Wonder if this will be a one and out like Real Housewives of DC and Million Dollar Listing S.F.  Those two shows are PROOF that Bravo does occasionally have some sense when it comes to recognizing bad reality TV.

Curiosity - is LVP an exec producer of this show?

Well if she is you knkw it won’t be going anywhere.

It’s its like they keep creating new shows so these people don’t have to go out and get real jobs.

Considering how long VPR has been on the air and how much money it has made, this is an odd assessment.

So, Bravo which had viewership numbers in the millions with Scandoval last season (and profit from ads, etc.) couldn't, or didn't want to pay an OG cast member? 

That’s exactly what I was thinking. This show generated a lot of revenue last season. They don’t want to recognize the supporting characters’ contributions? How greedy can they be? And if anything, that was the first season that Peter was kind of more integral to a storyline. Rachquel was floundering, because she aged out of pageants. Peter tried to console her.

I never thought that he was compelling. But Peter was reliable and helped anchor the restaurant.

The model's facetious comment comes after Taylor's estranged spouse, Brittany Cartwright, explained on "The Valley" that she had wanted to expand her family with him.

I just learned on Facebook that this is Janet’s second marriage.

From her first wedding website:

 

Phillip

Phillip was born and raised in Dublin, Ohio along with his parents Barb and Randy, and his two older siblings–Stephanie and Andy.  His younger years were filled with playing sports–typically coached by his dad.  After graduating high school, Phil opted not to go directly to the NBA, and, instead, attended the Ohio State University where he received a degree from the school of business.  Phil currently works in the finance industry at Rockbridge Capital.

Janet

Janet was also born and raised in Dublin, Ohio with her parents Claudia and John, younger brother Ben, and half-sister Alicia. After graduating from Dublin Coffman (the school on the RIGHT side of the river), Janet went on to have the best four years of her life at Ohio University. While she was there she received a Bachelor’s Degree in English, then went on to earn an Associate’s Degree in American Sign Language Interpreting. She now works alongside 20 Deaf and hard of hearing coworkers at Keepsake Theme Quilts, a non-profit business.

How We Met

Phillip and Janet met through their mutual friends, Matt Dunkin and Darren Hobbs.  The first time they met was at Darren’s condo, when Matt and Janet swung by to hang out and to drop off Christmas cookies, which Darren proceeded to eat all of.  Phillip immediately had a crush on Janet, but it took a few months before the two went on a date.  Their first date was a trip to the movies to see Inception.  A few weeks later, they went on a double date to Put-In-Bay for Christmas in July where sparks flew–the rest is history.

 

They wed in June 2014.

 

Now I see that I could have learned this a year ago. Bravo posted about how her second wedding was tiny and cost about or slightly more than $180.00. There were 300 guests at her first wedding.

Dublin is a suburb in the northwest side of Columbus. Ohio State University is in Columbus, as well. 

It doesn't surprise me it's her second marriage. It seems she now found a husband she can manipulate because he is too nice.

It was reported that Brittany had enough when Jax said on a podcast (?) that Brittany had a stroke. 

Yes, I read or heard about that, too. She was upset that people were praying for her. She wanted them to pray for people who actually needed their prayers. Which is quite sweet of her.

Janet was a guest at Ariana’s birthday celebration, Season VIII.

Also, Sandoval looked much better and dressed better back then. I don’t think he was shopping at women’s stores or shopping on women’s clothing websites in Season VIII. He thinks he looks better when he’s been working out, but he is actually starting to resemble Jax.

I am still getting through the season. I enjoy seeing Jax and Kristen as a Vanderpump Rules fan. 

Some of the other cast members show a lot of promise with their crazy, but some of them are boring so far. I don’t care about breastfeeding and changing diapers.

I'm not sure they are cast members. Didn't Scheana and Katie film at a party last year? Or am I completely making that up? Regardless, I think they are just filming for a bit, not the whole season...but it also could be a chemistry test. I used to be on board when I thought Lala would tear Janet up, but now that I know they are friends, I'm completely uninterested. I hope they are just filming at a party or one event.

I think we saw Scheana and maybe Lala at one of the parties at the beginning of the season. It might have been the birthday party that Brittany threw for Janet. Or the party before that one.

It's what Jax would have done (while simultaneously ripping off a chunky cardigan), so good for Brittany 

Jax did way worse.  He spent the better part of season one telling anyone who would listen that Brit was an alcoholic and an unfit mother.

I watched the marathon this weekend. I felt insulted by the ep with Zack at the girls' event instead of with the men. Is that how they think about gay men? 

I don't know if it's Jax being an asshole or knowing how a reality TV show works but watching him stir the pudding amongst the cast members became tedious very quickly.

Sorry, I don't see the revenge body. I see alcohol bloat and a ton of unnecessary plastic surgery, botox and fillers.

Those breast implants will always make her look bigger or bloated. I hope she has them removed soon. 


Is she still under contract with Jenny Craig? She can be a Jenny Craig brand ambassador while confirming to Daily Mail that she underwent AirSculpt fat removal and skin tightening back in the spring?

Did her lips look like that last season?

No last season her lips were less puffy and stuck in a permanent frown due to some other unfortunate procedure.  Her boobs are big but now it looks like her stomach matches or protrudes further than her boobs - not a revenge body look at all.

That shiny/satiny fabric is not an easy fabric to wear unless you have a great figure.  IMO she often wears styles that might be trendy, but are too tight and unflattering for her figure.  (I can’t wear that fabric either!)
