Emily won’t shut up and decided she was in charge of- I’m so annoyed.

Alexis is dumb, mean, dumb, obnoxious, stupid, annoying, delusional, unchristian, and incredibly stupid.

When Alexis retorted that she bought Johnny J. Feragamo shoes too I really wish Shannon had said she better keep her receipts...

And really, can this man not buy his own shoes???

[65mickey]

I used to like Emily but after this reunion I can't stand her. Why does she get to jump in and answer questions that were not directed to her?  I wish Andy would tell her to shut up.

Oh Shannon, don’t drink from a straw on TV.  Not a good look with that cheek filler.

Alexis really relishes being centre stage. If it wasn’t for this alleged loan she’d have nothing.

Wouldn't that mean, realistically, that Jim Bellino bought Johnny those Ferragamo shoes?

Emily said that her dress was a medium and it was a little too big. Who is she kidding? It is so tight that she could barely walk.

What a letdown of Shannon and Tamra hugging it out.  Tamra was never a real friend.  Her M.O. was always to take advantage of Shannon's vulnerabilities - to get information - then turn around, gossip and betrayed her.  I call b.s. that Tamra has changed.  She is only in therapy because she needs the BRAVO paycheck.  And please never trust mean girls, backstabbing Emily and Heather.

Shannon can move the show in a different direction - with Jen and Katie.

And if she wasn't dating Johnny J. Douchebag I highly doubt she would have ever received an offer to come back on the show.

That was boring.

Alexis is a dumbass. Her and stupid John need to go away.

I forgot Katie was there she can go away too.

I don’t understand what the bombshell was suppose to be at the end? John hearing the crash? Shannon & him having a physical fight? None of this seems shocking at all. Who cares. 

I’m sure whoever was in that last scene will be in the next season & the ones not there won’t. I don’t care really. Katie is boring & Jen seems nice I guess but is pretty boring too.

Andy being Tamra’s PR rep at the end was annoying as hell. I suspected there would be an insta-reconciliation between Shannon and Tamra, and it really makes me wonder if the two of them plotted this falling out to get the audience to empathize with Shannon and keep them from turning on her for the DUI. Shannon didn’t seem the least bit upset that Heather and Tamra kept quiet for months that John admitted to hearing the crash. I’m a little surprised GIna was so happy to see their reconciliation: Shannon could easily drop her now that she has Tamra back and clearly she’s willing to go as low as she can when she’s anti-Gina.

I feel like this might be the beginning of Jen’s villain arc for next season (whether it lands as such with the audience remains to be seen). She was not happy to be thrown into the Alexis corner and have to witness the absolution of Tamra. Although I think everyone was being unfair expecting her to forgive Tamra since she refused to go scorched earth against Alexis. Why didn’t everyone demand Heather forgive Katie since Heather's still cool with Alexis?

I think it's clear that Andy is invested in Tamara and Shannon. He pretty much made them "make up." I guess he knows Tamra can't afford real PR. Emily is noise. I didn't understand anything Alexis was saying. But her chain of command is God first, then her man, then her kids. So I think she's trying to be the Christian wife by defending Johnny. Her earth God. 

Interesting that Heather, Tamara, and Alexis all left Jenn's engagement party to go drink/eat together.

I didn't  understand  Alexis knowing  every teeny detail regarding  Johnny's finances. I think  she saw bits and pieces,  and put them together. Or,  If they did that much looking and piecing, in order  for her to be prepared,  they didn't have much time for anything  else, surely.

As for JJ , he's a Neanderthal, just looking  at that face, ugh! 

Tamra made nice, because  on social  media  she took a lot of heat for being  so damned nasty, she might of thought she was out of a job. They didn't  really address how nasty Tamra was to Jen, and I like Jen. Compared to NY, OC imho is pretty good.

Once again we were treated to Johnny J's version of events, and he didn't come off any better than all the other times he has gone on camera. I did love Alexis's aside when JJ said that the only person he would show the videos to would be Shannon, and Alexis interjected that she would be in the room also. Of course she would. The only positive thing I can say about Johnny J and Alexis is that I am glad they found each other, and have saved anyone else from dating either one.

Hopefully that is the last we see of them. Although I fully expect JJ to drop Alexis at some point and look for another reality "star" to date. 

I am still waiting for someone, anyone, to ask Tamra why she was in so much pain all season. Andy won't, but I thought his co host Emily might. Tamra once again skates. Andy really does seem intent on keeping her around, no idea why. But she spent the entire season reaming on Shannon for her drinking, but no one held her to account for her own drinking, and vile actions (both drunk and sober). Will we find out next season why she was in pain? Not counting on it. Or any change in her behaviour.

The last line of the show, Gina to Shannon: "I love you, but you have got to get better taste in men."  I almost fell of the couch laughing🤣
