Bronwyn is a hypocrite. Says she likes Whitney but then talks smack about her. Says wants to empower women, she doesn’t like dumb women (Britani),but then puts down women. She’s trying too hard. And she has tacky taste. 
When did they film this? It’s snowing one day, then next scene no sign on the ground.

Meredith making fun of Whitney’s voice when Meredith has the weirdest voice out of everyone. Ruuuumers.  Her kids come in second and third. 
Thank you Heather for standing up for Costco.

I hate Mary being back on this  show. She’s mean. I loved when Britani told her to shut up.

Why do some of the richest people,  have extraordinary  bad taste. When the interior  decorator walked into Bronwyns home, it looked like technicolor  peptobismal.

I don't mind Mary's  zingers, she's not as bad as the others. Why did Brit announce  something  that didn't  sound true..strange.  Take off your sunglasses,  you all look the same!

I'm thinking she is on acid 24/7.

The thing I do like about Mary is she doesn't just say shit behind people's backs and then act friendly to their face, she will say that same shit to their face and/or let you know she isn't a fan of yours while pretending to like and tolerate you.

Chloe's voice and intonation resembles Meredith's voice. Brooks is not far behind.

Filming started at the very beginning of February (2024).

There's something about Meredith (and her family) that I find completely off-putting. Everything she does is so damn strategic. Because she loves baths, she's anointed herself queen of all bath products and expects Whitney to bow down and apologize for daring to offer a bath product. 

Heather's such a blatant shit stirrer. Completely disingenuous, she acts like a friend to get information. She then shares that information to incite conflict within the group. She stands back and pretends her hands are clean. They stupidly fall for it every time. Rinse & repeat.

I'm bored listening them to continually argue over the dumbest shit. Every single event seemingly has to include some type of conflict and it's not entertaining or enjoyable to watch.

Mary is just permanently sour and mean.  New girl was just trying to relate to her, and she immediately dismissed her because she didn’t say the perfect thing about their clothes. They do look like costumes! And she said she loved them, not ‘Where the hell did you get that!?’  And what’s wrong with being poor? It’s an insult to God? Oh, That’s how you justify taking peoples money and using it to hoard expensive, ugly things!  

Having said that, that wasn’t a ‘toast’ That was a way to get everyone to shut up and give her all of the attention(camera) 

The show always comes to a screeching halt whenever there’s a Meredith-Seth scene. He’s always making comments about sex or how sexy Meredith is. Ick. Totally overcompensating.

Mary and Brownyn have Wonka-ish taste in decor. I don’t hate it, it’s a nice change from white-grey-beige. But it’s overdone. A few quirky pieces are awesome. But it’s like they’re rich so they have to buy it all! And it ends up looking like loud clutter. 
 

Whitney did get ganged up on, but I’m even less interested in her healing journey than I am in Meredith’s religious journey.

ITA. Yes, Whitney has a squeaky baby voice, but Meredith sounds like she's on serious downers. She is not one to talk about anyone's voice.

Mary Crosby is ruining this show for me. She is not funny or clever she is downright nasty and dumb. 

I can't stand her. She is nasty and entitled. I know a lot of people think she's funny, but she almost ruins the show for me. I don't like watching her at all. 

In one of the THs, Whitney's face looked much fuller, like she plumped it full of fillers. Her hair was also much longer (extensions). It wasn't flattering--the fillers or the hairstyle.

To be fair, she's just bought some stuff, but the room hasn't been designed/laid out yet.

The Bat Mitzvah plot line:  Could this be any more contrived? Just another Producer set-up occasion/vehicle for a Housewives feud.

Merediths scene with her kids was so staged. That woman does not make bath bombs. All three of them have the same annoying manner of speaking. Like a dollar store Kardashian.

Bronwyn is entertaining enough. I don’t like her decor or fashion but that’s okay.

Mary’s mean but the recipient’s kind of deserve it. Brittani announcing that her and the Osmond guy have broken up many times in a matter of months, then making a new announcement that they are boyfriend/girlfriend and mentioning his Instagram sounds like high school. 

Whitney and her therapy speak. Don’t weaponize her trauma, don’t exploit her vagina. Join her journey of hilling her fillings.
Isn’t there a desk she should be hiding under?

I can't stand it when people dress up their dogs in all kinds of warm, itchy, uncomfortable outfits and then just laughs when the dog makes it perfectly clear that they. do. not. want. to. wear. it!

"She hates it, she keeps trying to bite it off."  Fuck you, Bronwyn!

I’ve never had to experience this.

If my dogs don’t like it they remedy that situation themselves.

I’ve spent many a minute sweeping up stuff going to myself, “Guess they didn’t like that one.”…..

I thought she had a bunch of dogs. Where are the rest of them? Locked up outside in a kennel?  Also, her husband seemed to be over her.

Why is Bronwyn always so sweaty? Her nose at Wendy's looked greased.

Agreed! It's funny because "I don't like her fashion, decor or style" seems to be driving force for the dislike. I mean it's not what I would choose but I'm hardly offended to the point of disliking her. 

Attention getting and being a try hard in the fashion, home decor area is a whole lot better that being a try hard that wants to grab attention by throwing people under the bus or making accusations that have real world repercusions. Pretty much what these shows require of their cast.

I know its early and there's still time for Brownwyn to earn her keep with whatever but for now her over the top taste doesn't equate to dislike for me. However,  I do find that equation interesting.

Mary is despicable; I don't think she is funny in a love to hate sort of way.  I think she is coarse and ill-mannered.   Andy should ask her about her LGBTQ views.....Let's see if he thinks she is as charmingly quirky after that.

I support Meredith in her exploration of her Jewish heritage.  I'm interested in seeing more of that and less on creating bath bomb recipes.

I know all of this is fake, fake, fake, but would you go to a different hair stylist and have your hair done to chat (was it being colored?) with a fellow cast mate if you've been happy with your current stylist?  I would not dream of it.  Isn't that what these mani-pedi spas are for?

And Brown Wind, you really must stop with your superiority complex regarding knowing (and caring) what YSL stands for.  The truth is you aren't tall enough to really wear his creations.  Sorry, not sorry.  

I can't really explain it but I still like Heather and Lisa.  I wouldn't mind grabbing a coffee with either one of them.

Yeah, Meredith and Mary are why I can't be bothered hating Whitney 😄

Mary's just a nasty, bitter woman - when she was saying her mom didn't want anything to do with her I was thinking, "Maybe she met you".  Close your mouth when you chew if you want to lecture others on how to behave.

And Meredith is such an obvious showoff.  The fact that she's tacky enough to appear on her show in a bathtub (even with her gruesome husband and his taint) does not make baths "her thing" and no one believes she, Brooks Marks and the girl stand around in the kitchen with epsom salts and vinegar creating bath bomb recipes.  When she said she doesn't just slap her name on things I was thinking "unlike your son!"  That's literally his design style.  Which is why I would normally be interested in an adult discovering her faith, but in this case I'll believe it when we see more than a big Bat Mitzvah party, complete with screaming fights, or Seth trying to make dirty jokes in Hebrew 🙄

I don't see what's so wrong with Brittani, although the Osmond Nephew is clearly Just Not That Into Her.  I think she's like Sutton on BH in that she's easy to attack since she doesn't jump back at them like a Rottweiler.  So then they get blamed for being "clumsy with words" or some nonsense.  I'm on her side on principle until Mary gets arrested and carted away!

Also, Meredith has been coming up with new products to shill every year she has been on this show.  Of course, she had her jewelry line, but then added a caviar business, expanded to costume jewelry and now bath products.  I would love to see the timeline of Whitney's bath bombs just to confirm that she was already making them when Meredith claimed them.  I do think there is a huge pile-up on Whitney this season.

Interesting.  I think I see a case where Lisa was angry with Whitney about something she said about Lisa on a podcast.  I'm not invested enough to remember exactly what was said or why it was offensive.  Then Whitney declared at the Besos dinner that she wasn't a liar and asked them to name one instance where she lied.  That is where I see the dam breaking.  They all had examples.  Whitney brought it on herself, IMO.

As an aside, is there anything wrong with a huge Whitney pile on?  I think she is pretty deserving.

Why not? She was probably just getting a cut and blow dry, and as a bonus received a scalp massage while she and Angie had a chat. She's got a great hairstyle--and it's easy because she doesn't have those horible extensions that too many housewives wear.

 I think Bronwyn will wear anything as long as it has a well known designer name on it and it must be costume like.  Bronwyn's living room was clearly where taste went to die. BTW, her slack of chairs sculpture made me think the artist laughing because he had stacked the chairs up in his studio to make room so he/she could mop the floor and she mistook it for art.

Meredith will be creating a line of kosher bath bombs.  I hope she realizes that her Bat Mitzvah classes will be her learning her torah portion and not learning the language fluently but just enough to say the prayers.

she can call her bath bombs "Bath Mitzvah"

In this cast?  Whitney barely trips the deluded asshole scale. 

Lisa's believes she can say whatever she wants about everyone, but cries foul if someone dares criticize her.

Someday they'll all look back and see how Heather pulled the strings and caused much of the conflict.
