S9.E7: Hard Launch, Soft Landing

[ZettaK]

The clock is ticking on Karen's court date as she examines what really caused her accident; Jassi hosts an event for her boyfriend, Darius, after a meeting at the White House.

First aired on 11/17/2024.

Wendy’s mom always has to make everything about herself. It’s gross. Does she think she’s cute? I get taking care of your parents but the way she goes about it is so blech.

Is Ashley divorced even now? I don’t think she is. Her kids always on the counter seems annoying lol.

All Karen does is deflect. It’s annoying.

Karen trying to go after Mia for something she openly admitted is a joke.

Karen just admit you fucked up & drove drunk. She’s blaming things from years ago. Why was she drunk calling her cousin that night? She just keeps using the excuse she can’t say things. I don’t buy anything she’s saying.

How is Mia sheltering her kids when she seems to want to film everything with them & about them. I’m sure her kids know she’s with Inc.

If Inc though he was the father the whole time how come he never tried to be in the kids life before.

Of course Karen is gonna say the judge is out to get her. Maybe because she keeps driving drunk & doesn’t seem to care at all & is blaming her multiple charges on grief which is just weird.

I can’t with TJ. He almost seemed a bit touchy feely with Eddie. Then he said relationships start as friendships because then it gets physical & you are bored. Like what? This man likes men. He’s prob never been with a woman. Which just don’t lead Stacey on. She must be a complete moron tho. Her attempt at flirting too with him was yikes lol.

[dancingdreamer]

I really  dislike Wendy's  mother. Her children  are very sweet though.

I don't  see what Stacey finds attractive  in TJ. Didn't  she say he'd  had sex or relationships with other women?  so why now is he celibate, make it make sense.

I can't  get over how cute Ashley's  boys are, they've  grown  up in front of us.Karen looked awful sitting  with Gizelle  and Ashley  outside,  one eyelash  was wonky.

[Palimelon]

TJ could be using Stacey to raise his profile as an actor and get more gigs. I had no idea who he was till I saw him on this show.

[Chatty Cake]

Karen and her excuses, enough. I’m not sure why they are counting down to her court date. It’s a  DUI, it’s not riveting tv.

Wendys mom is gross. Is she the reason Eddie’s family stays away?

I’m calling bullshit on TJ being a love interest for Stacey. This has to be a gay friend of hers who agreed to film with her and they decided to play the audience. Her costars are openly laughing.

I think it is BS, nobody is buying what she is trying to sell.

This, big time! She harasses her daughter on camera to give her money, Wendy gives her $500 to shut her up, I doubt $500 will go far for Mother Wendy.

BTW, that restaurant The Harryman House is across the street from my house, I had my second (most current marriage, lol) wedding there, eat there frequently, I can see it from my house, literally 350 steps from my front door and somehow I missed the filming, had no knowledge of the filming, like nobody in my little historic neighborhood said anything about it, UGGGHHH! 

Back to business:

Karen's deflection is loud and clear, but it does not matter because her show friends are not going to be in the jury box or on the judges' bench, those are the people she needs to impress but I think we know how this second timer is not going to seem impressive to those in the courtroom.

Ashley is now saying that her lawyer thinks that she will be able to sign divorce papers by June (of whatever year), did she sign them this past June? I didn't think so.

Jassi makes a party for her bf, it was lackluster. Did Jassi think this party was going to be the "Watch me entertain, this is how you do it!" moment for her because it wasn't.

Mia, messy, messy Mia. Gordon is getting back at her every chance he gets on camera so I wonder what he says to her when the cameras aren't there! Inc did not know about Mia's abortion but didn't seem to pressed about that, Gordon is trying to blow up their relationship, Inc. didn't seem to pressed about that either however the kids have had to hear the grown ups talking, right? Gordon is not doing those kids any favors by spilling the beans about their mother.  The tag line Inc. is forever might not be true, messy is forever is more true.

Was Gizelle in this episode? LOL. Did not miss her even if she was there.

 

 

[bosawks]

I think Karen has somehow talked herself into being the good guy in her drunk driving story, it is a sight to see.

Mia certainly seems to thrive on chaos, I couldn't handle her life for more than maybe 48 seconds tops.

It is astounding.  I can't imagine driving into a TREE and not taking, even a minute to think, hmmmm, how did I get here?

I feel gross watching Mia. 

[tvfanatic13]

Y'all, I am not proud of this, by almost 6 years I got a DUI (no other cars, animals, people involved thank God). The different is: I admitted that this was a horrible thing to have done, I stopped drinking immediately and never went back, I did all of the classes, probation, etc., and never once tried to blame someone other than myself. Shame on Karen.

[ridethemaverick]

Wrap this Mia shit up ASAP. It's not entertaining in the slightest. I like mess, but this is more like trauma. Not interested. 

Don't care about Ashley and her mom. 

Wendy's mom is gross in every way. I lowkey believe she made that shrine and I think Wendy knows and was just too embarrassed to admit it. 

Stacey. Girl. It wasn't entertaining when Kenya and Walter did it and it's not entertaining now. Stop it. 

Jassi and Keiarna...no longer interested. And Jassi's man in particular seems more like her son. Her wayward son. And who dates a man who has a baby on the way?

What happened to this show? 

[Giddyup]

Add me to the list of people who don’t want to see Ashley and her mom. Her mom is still with the deadbeat guy. It’s not Ashley’s problem.

Karen could have been stressed from the tax problems and her parents deaths. She could have drank to deal with it but she still  could have gotten a driver. 

Gordons letting it all hang out. This gets trashier each week. 

[StevieRocks]

Big Ugly Mole Karen STILL thinks she can garner sympathy after getting her SECOND DUI??? Disgusting. The only excuses she's left out are 9/11 and Hurricane Milton. GTFOH, Big Ugly Mole.

Is 'going to the zoo' a euphemism for watching gay porn?

[Palimelon]

I thought it meant a visit from Mrs. Palm and her 5 daughters, whether watching porn or not.

eXiled lying in wait across the street from Betty's house, trying to get a peek....

On topic: Wendy's mom is a major reason behind her lack of identity. Wendy spent her life trying to live up to this monster's expectations, but Mama will never be satisfied.

Actually Ashley and her mom would be a good storyline because it could explain why Ashley is so broke after being on this show for 8-9 years: she's been giving most of her Bravo paycheck to her momma for support.

See Ashley loved to taunt Candiace about her mother supporting Candiace but Ashley would change places with Candiace in a heartbeat if Sheila had the ability to support Ashley like Dorothy supported Candiace.

Why isn't Sheila's bum boyfriend working? Why is she having to work 12 hour days? How much of Ashley's paycheck is going towards supporting Sheila, Sheila's bum boyfriend and Ashley's little sister? Does Ashley's brother pitch in and help? What does Uncle Lump have to say about this matter?

That would be more of an interesting storyline than "Ashley is getting ready to get ready to divorce Michael!"  Stacey already has that storyline.

I'm almost certain she is the reason because it was said Wendy & Eddie dated all through high school and college and the family never had a problem with it. Wendy's mom and Eddie's mom were friends until Eddie & Wendy got engaged. Wendy is always going to be Team Mom so if Eddie's family is shunning Wendy's mom, they're going to shun Wendy too.

Here's the thing: Beyond Candiace's Mother's Day lunch, this is the most elegant event Potomac has seen in a while.  All their other events have been in broke down driveways and pickleball places with pork n bean plates.

Gordon is starting to scare me...as in..."I've got a gun and I'm going to end this sh*t!" scaring me.  Why are they continuing to torment this man for the sake of a storyline when it's clear he's getting more and more aggravated as the show goes on?  This man is not acting.  He's pissed!!!

I don't think he is. TJ strikes me as being very much like a number of guys that I know - raised in the church so contemplating anything other than a hetero relationship is off limits, good-looking enough that both men and women make their interest in them clearly known, and is smart, accomplished, personable, etc. 

He's just the 2020's version of Al Reynolds. He may come out, or he may end up married and always be presenting this face publicly that's respectable. It really depends on much he grows. Either way, he'll continue to get acting roles and will play characters that are in keeping with his moral values. And if he's comfortable with it, then more power to him.

[Salacious Kitty]

When he was on QVC, he said nothing about being religious. Most of the Christian hosts do, so if he really is religious, he was an outlier. I don't remember Stacey saying anything either, but she kept her personal life to herself for the most part. She talked about Arabella, but not her husband.  If she's really divorcing, that may be why.

Is it possible he became religious recently?

[Salacious Kitty]

There wasn't much time between them leaving QVC and the start of filming. I think his whole persona is a bad act. 

[ZettaK]

Gordon is (understandably) angry, but Mia doesn't seem upset the dirty laundry is getting exposed because she has a storyline after all....The kids are the last to consider. 

Karen is still using excuses and playing the victim. 

Why does Jassi think her fiance won't do the same to her (leave her for somebody else)? He did it once already, and he had two kids with the woman.

I feel sorry for Wendy with a mother like this.
